Another interesting fact is that the Bible as we have it now. was not printed in any language at all till about 1900 years after the birth of Christ for the simple reason that there was no such thing as printing known, till John Goosefesh came upon the scene.
 We have become so accustomed to the use of the printing press that we can scarcely conceive of the ages when the only books known to men were in handwriting. But it is a fact that had we lived before John Goose flesh discovered the art of printing in the 18th century we should have had to read our testaments, and our gos- pels from the manuscript of monk or friar. from the page of parchment or yellum, or paper covered with the handwriting. sometimes very beautiful and ornamental, of the scribe that had undertaken the slow and laborious task of copying the Sacred Word.
 ''The world can never sufficiently thank the Catholic church for the part she played in guarding and preserving the sacred scriptures for posterity.
 For the first three centuries of the Christian era we found the Bible in scattered fragments spread over diff ferent parts of Christendom. Mean while many spurious books under the name of scripture were circulated among the faithful. There were, for instance. the spurious. gospel of St m Afaf thias. The C....aonc church ih the plentitude of authority, in the third council of Carthage CAD. 397) sepa- rated the chaff from the wheat and declared what books were canonical and what were apoeryphal. In the fourth century of the Christian era St. Jerome. a priest, and the most learn ed scholar of his day, translated the Bible from Hebrew and Greek into Latin. This is called the Vulgate, the common or current or accepted yer sion. Regarding the New Testament it is quite Illuminating to note that 40 years passed away between the writ ing of the first tprobably the gospel Of St. Matthew) and the last tthe apoca- lypse of St, John).
 AS far as we know our Divine Lord never wrote a line of scripture certainly none that has been preserv- ed. He never told his apostles to write anything though he did com mand them to go and teach all na- tions." preach tho gospel to every creature" The that heareth you hear eth Me-" and 50 he commanded them to do what . precisely did Himself deliver the word of God to the people by the living voice--convince, per suade. instruct, convert them by ad- dressing themselves face to face to living men and women: not intrust

STORY OF BIBLE BY
 REV.J.LEO SULLIVAN
Priest Explains Its Origin and
 How We Got It

The origin of the Bible and its translation from the original langu- age was explained by Rev. J. l.. Sullivan, at meeting of the Holy Name society of St. Joseph's church last evening.
 The address was as follows:
 The greatest book of all time, whether you regard it as divinely in- spired. or merely as literary master piece, it stands forth like a giant mountain, defying the assaults of de- cay and destruction.
 The Bible is a book written by men divinely inspired but it is a book not religion, not an infallible guide to salvation. The Bible was not writ ten all at once or by one man, like most other books with which we are acquainted, but 1500 years elapsed be- tween the writing of Genesis (the first book of the Old Testament) and the Apocalypse or Revelation of St. John tthe last book of the New) It is made up of a collection of different books. by different authors, forming in short a library, instead of sim pie work, and hence called in Greek 'Bibia' or the books.
 "lf you had lived :n the days im- medis:ely succeeding the death of Moses, all you would have had given to you to represent the Bible would have been the first five books of the Old Testament. written by that pa triarch himself: that was the Bible in embryo. so to speak, the little seed that was to grow subsequently, into a great tree. the first stone laid on which was gradually to be erected the beautiful temple of the Written Word throughout the centuries that followed.
 '"The Bible was not written origin ally in English or German. Some folks are found today who labor under this delusion, The original language of the Bible was Hebrew: that of the New Testament was Creek.
 Thus our Bibles, as we have them today for reading, are transations: that is, are rendering or equivalent in English of the original Hebrew and Greek, as if came from the pen of prophet and apostle and evangelist.

Talmak's Camp Meeting

-Four families went over to Maso
Butte Sunday to attend the anpua
camp-meeting of the Nez Perce In
dians. An equal number attende,
! from Orofino. These meetings have
been held without intermission for 3;
years. Rev. James Hayes, nestol
among the Indian preachers, is the
| popular president of the association
He was among the first speakers this
year. 1t is safe to say that he is by
al lodds the most popular minister
among all the Indians in the Pacific
Northwest. Besides being the leader
of the Nez Perces, he is the great mis-
sionary to the neighboring tribes. 1t
was through his ministry that relig-
ious work was begun among the In
dians in southern Idaho, in Nevada,
and in several points in Montana. He
has labored in many other places be-
sides. His latest work was among the
Warmspring Indians in central Oregon.
The fruits of this great man S minis
try are shown by the several delega-
tions of men coming from remote re-
gions where Mr.. Hayes was the first
minister to preach to the Indians
There are two delegations from points
in Montana, and there is another del
egation from the Owyhee reservation
in Nevada. At testimony meeting
conducted Sunday Afternoon, repre-
sentatiyes from these several delega-
tions told of the wonderful work done
among their people by Rev. Hayes, the
!" Apostle Paul" among his race.
Though quiet and unobstrusiye, Mr..
Hayes is said to be one of the most
eloquent orators of his race.
