It is not known j whether the brothers who manage St. 1 Michael's college propose, to tear it j down or to add it to the already splen- did collection of antb-uities and run- cjtjes which they control. It is under-I under-I stood that St. Michael's college has i sought to buy it at various times, since j they control all other property around I the hill which is crowned bv the Church of San Miguel. .

The twenty-fifth annual convention of the Catholic Young Men's union j was held in Boston Aug. 31. Sept. 1 and 2 Three hundred delegates were pres-I pres-I out. coming from as far west as St. Louis and representing a membership or about SO.OdO. The union is a league of Catholic Young Men's societies and its discussions at previous conventions have been interesting and fruitful. They are chiefly on questions of inter-I inter-I est in association work among Catholic j young men. Rev. B. M. Began of Pah-way, Pah-way, N. Y.. is president of the organ- ization and Itev. Walter J. Shanley of I Hartford, Conn., is vice president. The I membership is largely in the east. Papal Blessing For Colored Catholics. New York. Aug. 31. A special blessing bless-ing from Pope Pius X for the colored people of New York was read from the j pulpit of the Church of St. Benedict ' the Moor, in West Fifty-third street, j yesterday. The benediction, which was sent through Rev. John K. Burke, rector rec-tor of the church, who is now in Rome, 'was as follows: "Our Holy Father Pope Pius X sends his affectionate blessing to the people of St. Benedict the Moor. The holy father expresses a deep interest in your welfare." Father O'Keefe, who addressed the congregation, spoke of the interview their pastor bad with Pope Tins X, telling how Cardinal Gibbons had ex-! ex-! plained the work which Dr. Burke is j doing in the metropolis. He said that j the holy father looked to the Catholic ! church to solve the problems which j confront their race. j Protestant Eells King "Welcome. I As Bishop Colton. the new head of the diocese of Buffalo, approached the I rectory of St. Joseph's cathedral, that 1 city, on Tuesday of last week, St. Joseph's Jo-seph's bells rang out a joyous peal, in which they were soon joined by the sweet carillon in the neighboring St. Paul's (Episcopal) cathedral a gracious gra-cious compliment thoroughly appreciated. appreci-ated. I The parade that evening In honor of j the new bishop was described by the secular press as the most impressive ever seen on the streets of Buffalo. Most noticeable, moreover, was the fact that from end to end of that long line J embracing over 20.000 men and boys, not a rowdy demonstration was made; ' there was not on act that was inconsistent incon-sistent with the occasion that evoked th" public welcome of the new bishop. All along the line of march the residents, resi-dents, irrespective of creed, illuminated illumi-nated their dwellings. J Archbishop Ryan's Jubilee. I The arrangements for the celebration 1 of the fiftieth golden anniversary of the Most Rev. Archbishop's ordination tn the priesthood, says the Standard and Times of Philadelphia, were ocmpleted : at a meeting of the jubilee committee I held in the Catholic High school on : Tuesday, and there is every indication that the demonstration of reverence ' and affection of which his grace will : be the object during the coming week : will rank with the most notable events of the kind in the history of the church I in this country. Apart from the as-t as-t sembling of di-nitaries an 1 priests from j many other dioceses, near and far, in ' testimony of the esteem in which the I archbishop is Veld without his juris-j juris-j diction, and the loving felicitations to j which open expression will be given by j his own clergy and laity, the occasion 1 will be made memorable by the presen-i presen-i ration of 0 princely nurs, estimated at I $160 000. which it will be the venerable i jubilai ian's supreme happiness to ex- pend in the interests of one of the noblest no-blest of the many noble charities of the archdiocese. St. Vincent's Home, t ' Pope Strong and Vigorous. I There is no truth in the rumor that j the pope is suffering from heart disease. Inquiry made in the best informed quarters shows that his holiness is strong and vigorous. Only about five years ago. when at Venice, Cardinal Sarto had an illness which lasted some time. Several doctors attended him and all were unanimous in excluding the possibility of heart disease. However, How-ever, the illness caused his eminence some concern, and he was, moreover, anxious about his family, 'which, as is known, is in roor circumstances. He made up his mind to apply to an insurance in-surance comnany for an insurance policy pol-icy of "200.or-0 fran?s. The insurance was effected in Venice, and the company com-pany declared that- it was doublv happy to insure such a personage and to be able to tell him that he was in1 excellent excel-lent health. The pope's medical attendant at-tendant in Venice was Dr. Pietro da Vcnezia. The doctor was present when his holiness fainted on the 11th inst. in the Pauline chanel. He declared that he lately had occasion to examine the pope repeatedly, and that he found him quite healthy, but that his holiness had fa,tigued himself in the recent reception re-ception and ceremonies. The doctor concluded by saying that he was con- 1 .,,, mmmmmMm .I- 1 .M.. I vinced that Pope Pius X. like his predecessors, pre-decessors, Leo XIH and Pius IX, had a long Jjfe before him. Too Many Religious. Bishop JDuhaniel of Ottawa, Canada, i it is reported, has refused to allow any I more of the 'exiled religious orders ; from France to make-a settlement in ! his diocese. Members of orders already in existence in Canada may join these j communities, but he will tolerate no 1 new ones. There are too many religious re-ligious orders in Canada already, he i says. It is said that Bishop Duhamsl j will be supported in hi:i stand by all !' the bishops of the province of Quebec. Way to Build Catholic Schools. The diocese of Cleveland, perhaps , the greatest of them all. is justly re-j re-j nowr.ed for its magnificent churches, I its well organized parochial school i system and the largest parochial I school buildings in this country. Dur-; Dur-; ing my recent visit to Ohio I was i shown several school buildings that j had 'cost from $so.000 to .1100.000. At the establishment of a new- parish a school is immediately provided by the erection of a composite structure with the first lloor for the temporary I church, the second for school rooms ! and a large b;-senient for an auditor- j ium. Two of the best specimens of this j style of architecture were recently 1 built by Father Treiber of Canton. O. j The idea was originated " by Bishop 1 Horstmann, who is energetically carrying carry-ing out the plans of his predecessor. Pishop Clilmuur, the founder of the. parochial school system of the diocese. State Support For Parochial Schools. ! Of the questions discussed at the recent re-cent meeting of the American Federa- J tion of. Catholic societies. . the most important was the school question. Th federation holds that parochial schools i are entitled to hel; from the state the j same as i-re the public or common schools. Two plans were suggested, which in effect are the same, though different in abdication. ' The first plan, as explained by Pishop Messmer, is to place the parochial paro-chial school on the same footing as the i common school by subjecting it. its ' work and its teachers to the same tests I as the public school and allowing credit j only where it corresponds with the ! latter institution. This power to regu- late would apply only to the secular 1 branches, and would allow the teach-j teach-j ing of such sectarian principles as j were deemed best. The federation believed be-lieved the necessity of some sectarian teaching is established. The second plan was to exempt the parents of children attending only the parochial school from the state tax which goes toward the support of the public school. The money in this way saved by the taxpayer could be applied ap-plied to the support of the parochial school. Onno Klopp. Aged 80. Onno Klopp passed away on Sunday last at Vienna. He was a convert con-vert to the Catholic church, and his conversion was largely due to the study of history. A member of a Lutheran Lu-theran family, he applied himself to j Protestant theology at Bonn, but later on he turned to history and by his historical his-torical writings he wo high distinction. distinc-tion. He raised a storm in 1S61 bv his "Life of Tilly," for he presented a picture pic-ture of the famous general which was greatlv at variance with the current historical views of the "Reformation" period. To bis critics Klopp ably replied re-plied in the magazines devoted to historical his-torical science, and he soon followed up the work with a study of the career of Charles V. Amongst his other more notable productions is a history in fourteen four-teen volumes of "The Fall of the House of Stuart and the Succession of the House of Hanover." Since he was received re-ceived into the church in 1S73 his life has been a model of devotion to the faith. On his ROth birthday the holy father named him a Knight of St. Gregory, and the emperor of Austria conferred on him the cross bP the Order Or-der of Leopold. His historical works will long exercise a useful influence in dissipating- the distorted ideas of the "Reformation" circulated by prejudiced preju-diced Protestant historians. London Catholic Times. |
