How a man possessed of comfortable means tan allow his wito to go to the work house rather than pay a fine of 17, Is something that the average man cannot understand, yet that Is exactly what occurred In West Indianapolis Thursday afternoon. Adam Hahn is the name of the man, and he conducts a grocery and meat market near the corner of Williams and Howard-sts. Hahn ow ns a cow which has been running at large In direct violation of the law. Marshal' Maholm took the animal up a few days ago and on Wednesday Squire Allen summoned him to appear In his court. Ilahn was fined $1 and costs, amounting in all to $7.10, and as soon as he was asked to pay the fine he denied ownership of the animal and sali that it was the property of his wife. The marshal started out to find her and she was brought Into court. She acknowledged that the cow belonged to her and the fine was transferred from her husband to her. She had no money and the friends she brought in were not satisfactory to the court. The marshal accompanied her home and 'told her husband that unless he paid the fine his wife would have to go to the work house, and strange as it may seem he decided on the latter course rather than pay the fine. The officer tried to reason the case with him, but he seemed to think that he was getting the best of the authorities and stubbornly refused to pay the money. v The officer finally took Mrs. Ilahn away, followed by the walls of her children, who begged the hard-hearted father not to let their mother go to Jail. He was deaf to all entreaties, however, and told them to go in the house or he would beat them. The People Indignant. When the marshal returned to the suburb In the evening and told the story the indignation of the people knew no bounds, and threats of white-capping were openly made, but the officers who were present prevented anything of the kind from taking place. , All day Thursday ' the matter was talked over by the citizens of West Indianapolis, and it was decided that unless Ilahn paid the fine and had his wife released by 8 o'clock at night the citizens would take the matter into their own hands and give him a good whipping or a ducking In Eagle creek. A notice to that effect was sent him during the afternoon, but he paid no attention to It, and continued to go about his business in an indifferent manner. Shortly after 7 o'clock at night men could be seen standing about the street corners talking the matter over in subdued tones, and shortly afterward a large crowd of citizens living in that part of West Indianapolis known as the. Valley district gathered at the corner of Morria-st. and Hadley-ave.. and shortly before 8 o'clock started in the direction of Hahn's place of business. There were perhaps thirty or forty men in. the crowd which was made up of the representative citizens cf that part of the suburb. When they arrived In front of the store the place was deserted with the exception of one or two men who were in the meat market. The crowd waa orderly .and . in a quiet manner arranged themselves along the sidewalk in front of the building. A Physlclau Lends. One of the number, a prominent and well-known- physician, was detailed to go inside and see If Ilahn had carried out his instructions. Hahn was -busy waiting on a customer when' the physician went Into bi3 place of 'business and while waiting to get an opportunity to speak to him a buggy drove up in front of the store. Mrs. Hahn was one of the occupants, and as soon as the crowd of indignant citizens saw that she had returned they were satisfied and. many of them went home. It was through no effort of Hahn's, however, that his wife was released, as he made no effort to, gt her out. A relative hearing of the occurrence drove to the work house and paid the fine and effected Mrs. Hahn's release. It's a lucky thing for Hahn that he did so, for the crowd was determined, and he would have undoubtedly been roughly handled had he been unable to how that Mrs. Hahn was in the house. Probably nothing in years has aroused so much indignation in West Indianapolis. The citizens over there are nearly all working people, who prize their home higher than anything else, and the fact that a man would treat his wife so shamefully aroused them to the highest pitch. - ' , Hahn's Side of the Case. Hahn was interviewed by a Sentinel reporter a few minutes before the crowd arrived. He is very bitter toward the town officers and calls them names unfit for publication. lie said that he never heard of any one being fined for allowing a cow to run at large and he seemed to be of the opinion that the fine was Imposed upon him In order to give the officers a little spending money. He said they did not d anything but sit around and smoke ten-cent cigars and spend the money they received from the poor people who are compelled to allow their cows to run at large. II said he had paid 13 already and he did not propose to rive them another cent.; The reporter mildly suggested that he believed he would rather pay the than- see his wife go to the- Work house! "No, sir; they won't' ret another cent cX my xucaey. I axa uu a Urxzy nua.

for I give more to the' poor in the neighborhood than any other man on' the hill," said he in broken German. "Now there is one of my neighbors: he can tell you what kind of a man I am," said he, spcaklrg of the man who entered the room. "Mr. Hahn." said the new arrival, "1 think you did & dirty, mean, contemptible trick, and if you had a spark of manhood in you your wife would have never gone to the work house. "But my money, all they, want Is my money," exclaimed Hahn. "Money be d d," said the neighbor. "'I would sell every, stitch of clothing on my back and then crawl on my hands and knees all the way to the squire's office before I would allow my wife to go. to Buch a place." Ilahn Prepared to Fight. . While the above conversation was going on Hahn stood with a large knife in his hand which he had been using to cut some meat and the reporter expected every minute to see him attack the man who had dared to confront him. He did nothing of the kind, however, but attempted to explain the matter In brokenGerman, which could not be understood. Thing were getting decidedly warm in the place, and as a large crowd 6f men could be seen standing on the sidewalk those who were in the shop decided that the best thing to do was to vacate... The men outside were quiet and orderly 'and no cries of "lynch him" could be heard. There was a look of determination on their faces, however, which spoke volumes. ..... As soon as Hahn discovered that the crowd meant business he became very much alarmed and remained In the back part of the store. He was kept in ignorance of his wife's arrival for some time and he did not know what minute he owuld be dra grgred out into the street. At the time there were no officers about and it would have been an easy matter for the crowd to have taken him away. Across the street was a large number cf women who were anxiously watching the outcome of the proceedings, and Hahn's children, half frightened to death, were gathered in front of the store. Ferninat the Government. According to the story of the neighbors Ilahn Is not the generous chap, he rrofessess to be, and it is said that ever since he has lived in the place the officers have had more or less trouble with him. On one occasion a dangerous flue was discovered in his building and he was notified to have it repaired. He refused to do so and was fined. That had no effect and he was arrested again and this time fined heavier than before. He then concluded to have the flue repaired and his property and probably the lives of his wife and children were saved. Ho has a good paying business, or had rather, and is worth probably $4,000 or $5,000. Many of his former customers denounced him In the strongest terms last night and stated that they would not buy another cent's worth of him to save his life, and it is likely that he will be boycotted by the entire neighborhood. The strangest thing about the whole affair is the fact that he cannot be convinced that he has done anything wrcwig and seems to think that it is an everyday matter for men to allow their wives to go to the work house to lay out- a fine. The only excuse he offers is that his wife was willing to go in order to beat the town out of the 17.10. When she arrived home, however,' she made haste to pay the relative the money he had given to secure her release and said that she was glad to get home again. She is an estimable woman and her husband owes his success in life to her as she is at the head of the business.

A. P. A. REPORTS REFUTED. WHAT HKPFTAllLE CITIZETVS OF COLVMUrS, O., SAY.? The A. P. A. Una Been Clrenlatlngr False Reports There nnd the Statements Are Promptly Denied The Story Branded mm a, Bai Fabrication. The following exposure of the A. P. A. by the Protestant ministers and professors of Columbus, O-. explains Itself: The undersigned have learned through various sources of a state of anxiety amounting almost to a panic, in many of the communities, of this region, over an apprehended uprising of the Roman catholics to ravage the land. The following extracts from a letter written by a reputable physician living near the center of Ohio will give some idea of the state of feeling existing in many places: "We have been, and are still, having an excitement in our usually quiet town in regard to the catholic question. There is not a cathollo in the entire township; but a large number of our people are intensely stirred up, some almost prostrated with fear, afraid that the catholics are about making a wholesale attack upon protestants, killing and plundering and destroying our schools and churches. Of course it obtains the strongest foothold among the ignorant and unthinking, yet it seems to cause great uneasiness and fear among many of the more intelligent. Copies of the Columbus Record have been distributed here, with its alleged letter of Pope Leo, of 1891, and with the other statements, with which, of course, you are acquainted. In what way can this feeing be allayed? Will you kindly aid me? Is not that alleged letter of Pope Leo's, which is continually paraded in the Columbus Record, a barefaced forgery? Is it true that every teacher in the Columbus schools was a catholic a year ago, until the A. P.- A. took It in hand? In your opinion are the catholics arming and contemplating a war with protestants?" Should Be False. . , Thus appealed to, we should be false to every Impulse of Justice and manliness if we did not promptly and unequivocally respond. We are .not in sympathy with Roman Catholicism as a system. Doctrinally and ecclesiastically we are protestants in our deepest convictions; it Is because we are protestants that we are ashamed and humiliated by the kind of warfare described in ihis letter. In reply to its questions and to many similar inquiries we wish therefore explicitly to say: 1. The alleged letter of the pope, to which reference is made, which call3 upon the faithful to rise and exterminate the protestants and which has been kept standing in many newspapers and scattered broadcast through the community by means of leaflets and hand-bills, is a forgery. 2. The document entitled "Instructions to Catholics," also widely published and disseminated, is another stupid forgery. 3. From the clerk of the Columbus board of education we have the informaYour Strength AND YOUR RUNDOWN SYSTEM BUILT UP AND REORGANIZED. Renewed A few bottles of S. S. S. ill do it.

It Is t'ntrne. 4. It has also been currently reported that 95 per cent, of the Columbus policemen were Roman catholics. A year ago when this report was first put in circulation there were 112 men on the force, of whom forty-five were' Roman catholics. We have this Information from the former clerk of the police commission, who is a Protestant. There are now probably a few more protestants on the force than there were a year ago. 5. The statement has been freely made that all the county officers of Franklin county have long been Roman catholics. The truth Is, that of the twenty county officials whose names are in our city directory there htc three Roman catholics. One year ago there were five. The statement that the schools and the officers have been overrun by Roman catholics does not seem to be based upon facts. Baselena Fabrications. 6. The stories everywhere current about warlike preparations of the Roman catholics are also baseless fabrications Everywhere the most alarming tales are told 'about consignments of rifles to priests; about the storage of arms in churches: .about the drilling of troops in the basements of churches. For all these stories there is not a solitary fact to show. We cannot find a particle of evidence that any such preparations for war have been made or even thought of by Roman catholics. If any such evidence existed It would surely be produced. Several churches thus suspected In other places have been searched, with the hearty co-operation of the priests in charge, and not a sign of warlike implement has been found. Our Roman catholic neighbors, though suffering grievlously under these wicked slanders, are quietly going about their daily work, waiting for this epidemic of prejudice and passion to abate. It is not likely that their love for protestants will be increased by the experience through which thejr are now passing; but their patience under this trial has been exemplary. Utterly Unmanly. May we not venture to add that this anti-papal panic is utterly unmanly? Out of the seventy millions of our population the Roman catholics claim only nine or ten millions?. The capital of the country Is in far larger proportion in Protestant hands. Is there any danger that sixty millions of protestants, with most bf the offices in their hands, with the bulk of the wealth of the nation in their hands, are going to be overrun and exterminated by ten millions of Roman catholics whose resources are small? We trust that the protestants of this country are not such a weak and cowardly generation that one Roman catholic can put six of them to flight. . We make these statements, let us repeat, not only in the interests of truth and decency and common humanity, but also in the interest of protestantism. And we call UDon all Protestant gentlemen, in tvery community, to acquaint themselves with the literature which is being ' secretly disseminated among the Ignorant protestants of their neighborhood, and to speak out about it as every man of honor is bound to do. If the purposes of Roman catholics need for any reason be opposed or resisted, let us oppose and resist them like men. The S Isen er. t Willi am E. Moore, pastor Second presbyterian church. . A. E.

BALTIMORE. Oct. 18. With all the pomp the catholic church can give to its most solemn occasions, the added dignity given by the presence of thirteen archbishops of the American hierarchy, bishops by the score, an array of clergymen and seminarians by the hundred, the celebration of the sliver Jubilee of Cardinal Gibbons was begun in the historic old cathedral this morning. Crosses, mitres and keys hung in the air with hardly breeze enough to move them. The stars and stripes were 'not left out of the decorations and added their eoler to the scene. Flags of the diocese were also mingled in the decorations. Most prominent of all was the cardinal's color of red. It. appeared everywhere. The doorway of his residence had brilliant draperies of the color that could be seen far down the street. It was a bright sunshiny morning, and early began the pilgrimages from all sections of the city with the cathedral as their mecca. Thousands of people lined the sidewalks and crowded into the street The police had difficulty in'making an avenue wide enough for the rrocesslon to pass. Bright sunshlnny weather greeted the opening of the festivities of the celebration in honor of the Jubilee of Cardinal Gibbons. The faithful catholics have since early dawn been gathering from all parts of the city, their mecca being the cathedral and the cardinal's .residence, both of which . are gaily decorated in honor of f he occasion. The admission was by card and only a few of the thousands' were able to pass the police cordon around the . building, but the people stood there patiently waiting for the interesting procesf Ion, and uncovered their heads reverently as the clergy, the bishops and archbishops in the robes of their office passed, followed finally by Archbishop Satolli and the cardinal himself. The Decorations. The cardinal's residence, the catholic club, a number of residences and stores in the neighborhood of the cathedral were handsomely decorated. Calvert hall--ami the .dining halls of St. Mary's seminary and of 'the Carrollton were also appropriately adorned for the jubilee. Over the front entrance of the cardinal's residence was represented a canopy over a cardinal's throne, and from the windows floated the stars and stripes, while below was a fringe 'of the papal colors. The central baywindow was decorated with the coat of arms of Maryland, while to the right and left the windows bore the coat of arms of North Carolina ' and Virginia, In recognition of the three states in which Cardinal Gibbons had served as bishop. The front of the catholic club was decorated with the national and papal colors. From each window fluttered the stars and stripes and the papal colors were festooned In moss from the upper windows. All the archbishops in the hierarchy, except Archbishop Rlordan of San Francisco, Kenrick of St. Louis and Salponite of Mexico, were present. The Ezerrtie. The exercises began- with the high pontifical mass at the cathedral at 11 o'clock. Preceding this there was a procession of the clergy. The procession was formed into two sections, which afterward Joined in the march to the cathedral. The higher ecclesiastics formed at the palace of the cardinal and the seminarians and priests formed In Calvert halh two squares away. Tho seminarians of St. Sulpiuant and students of St. Charles college were followed by the monslgnors, who in turn were followed respectively by the bishops and archbishops. '. The apostolic delegate, Mgr. Satolli, walked directly in, front of the oross-bearer of the cardinal, who was followed by the lesser clergy. Those in the procession were: Monslgnors Joss, Farley. Doane, Sieberretti, O'Sulllvan, Sehneer, Thorpe, Nugent, O'Reilly, Seaton, Bishops Mlchaud, -Gabriels, McDonnell, Cotter, Van Deviveer, Haid, Foley, Harkins, McGovern, Bonacum, Curtis, Tudden, .

Gross, Elder, Ryan, Corrigan, Feehan and Williams. Arriving in the massive cathedral the clergy and seminarians at once separated and occupied the places assigned them. His eminence the cardinal and Mgr. Satolli occupied their respective thrones. The entire ceremony was of the most imposing description. The solemn pontifical mass was celebrated by the cardinal. Mgr. Corrigan of New York preached the sermon. Archbishop Corrlgan's Sermon. "For every priest taken from among men is ordained for men in the things that appertain to God.

most ancient see of the United States reached the silver jubilee of his priesthood. When asked a day or two later how Jie had celebrated the event he answered, By an act of thanksgiving during my mass and by an act of contrition. "In the same spirit your eminence would gladly have allowed the twentyfifth anniversary of your episcopal consecration to pass., unnoticed by men, and marked only by silent communion with the supreme giver of every good. But the affection of a very devoted flock craved some public expression of their gratitude to God and their holy Joy on so notable an anniversary; and they urged that if your modesty alone were consulted they might seem not to appreciate the ties that bind them to their chief pastor, nor to honor, as they ought, so memorable an epoch in his life. With your accustomed . gentleness and your desire to contribute always to the happiness of others, sacrificing your own wishes to theirs, you have, yielded to their pious importunity, stipulating only, when you did me the great honor to invite me to say a few words on this occasion, that the address should, be brief and to assume the character of a panegyric. ' ' "Venerable Fathers, Reverend Brethren of the Clergy, Dear Brethren of the Laity If we analyze the joyous feelings which pervade our souls today I think' we may trace them back to two leading thoughts, namely, the dignity of the episcopal office and the shining merits of him whose Jubilee we celebrate. Of the latter point, although it is foremost in our minds, I may not seak, and yet, dear brethren, what need of words when all that one would wish to say is already engraved on your faithful memory and recorded on the tablets of the heart? What need of feeble words when a most eloquent eulogy is silently spoken not only by the presence of the venerated representative of the holy father but also by the attendance of so many other bishops and archbishops that their number calls to mind the last plenary council over which your chief pastor presided with so much grace, with so much tact and wisdom? What need of words when his fruitful labors have been already crowned by the seal of eminent approval, the sovereign pontiff having made him a member of a senate to which the Roman senator of old was insignificant in comparison? "According to the gracious ' purpose of our Lord, the bishop is indeed a true shepherd. As such first of all, he must love his flock. The love of a bishop for those Intrusted to his care ought not merely to rival the solicitude of a parent for the spiritual welfare of his offspring, but great, strong, enduring as Is paternal affection, the love of the episcopal heart ought to be still purer and stronger because it is derived from a higher source. "2. The bishop must feed his flock by word, by work, by example, being made their pattern from the heart. Minds that grope in the darkness and in error must be fed with the truth of Christ. Hearts that yearn for love and that And no secure resting place in things created must be Inflamed with the love of Christ. The. Christian's whole life needs to be shaped and fashioned after some transcendant model, to which all his actions may be conformed. "3. The bishop must protect his flock. The good shepherd has 'compassion on the multitude' lest they fall by the wayside and perish; the good shepherd takes the wounded sheep on his shoulders and carries It tenderly'to a place of shelter where its bruises may be healed; the good shepherd leads his flock to good pastures, safe from ravening wolves and secure from open or concealed danger to poor human nature; but in return how consoling is the gratitude of those for whose 6ake the burden is cheerfully borne. "St. Paul, who felt all the solicitude of his office, also testifies of his disciples that they 'received him as an angel of God. even as Christ Jesus,' and he adds, 'I bear you witness that It could be done vou would have plucked out your own eyes and would have given them to me' so deeply did they value the scrlflce made for their souls. According to the sacred scriptures, such, although in merest outline, are the duties, dear brethren, of the good shepherd. What in turn are the duties of the flock? First of all the duty of obedience. " 'My sheep hear my voice.' That Is, thev obey it. This duty, I am sure, the faithful of this diocese, trained in traditions of piety from their youth, most willingly discharge. Next is the duty of praver. earnest, fervent and persevering, that the life of the pastor, so precious to the flock, may abound with every blessing and be spared as-long as possible. Such is the mind of the church in ordering that the anniversary of episcopal consecration' be kept year by year. The duties of the office grow more familiar. It is true, with practice, but they also loom up In larger proportions as time goes on and are found to be more farreaching than at first appeared, Just as one sailing on the ocean sees the horizon continually broaden on his view as he speeds day by day over the vast expanse of waters. But the haven of rest will heave in sight at last. Until that hour the words of the gospel today will keep resounding on the ear 'What I say to you. I say to all, watch.' " 'VigUate.' And while the faithful shepherd watches lovingly over your safety, dear brethren, bear in mind the prayer uttered on an occasion like this by the great doctor of the church, St. Augustine: 'Finally, , I beseech you all to commend to the Almighty my care and solicitude for your souls and in return for it I beg this requital that the Lord will overlook in His mercy and not scan with severity whatever shortcomings there may have been in the past. And as to the time yet remaining, during which this burden of the good shepherd is to be borne, may He so rule my course as to make it pleasing to His eyes and conducive to your good, so that the last day you may not be for me a cause of dread and punishment, but my Joy and my crown.' " At then end of the mass the papal benediction was dispensed. The recession from the church was in the same order as the entry. Cardinal Gibbons was assisted In the mass by the following: The Very Rev. A. L. Magniene, S. S., president of St. Mary's seminary; assistant priests, the Rev. J. Walter and L. Lee, both of Washington; deacon of honor, the Rev. George Devine of Baltimore. The Rev. J. A. McCallen of Montreal was master of ceremonies. Pope Leo's Letter. Following is the congratulary letter of the holy father to the cardinal. It was read by Father Rooker: "Leo XIII, pope: To our beloved son, James Cardinal Gibbons, archbishop of Baltimore Health and apostolic benediction: "In the month of October next recurs the auspicious day on which Ave and twenty years ago you were raised' to the episcopal dignity. We therefore are prompted both by your devoted attachment to us and' by our affectionate regard for you, to express th? feelings of heartiest congratulations wherewith to welcome an occasion no less joyous for us than It io for you. And while ne render thanks to Almighty God. who has hitherto had you in His holy keeping, we humbly beseech Him in His goodness to grant you privilege which He has this year mercifully vouchsafed to us (of celebrating the golden Jubilee of our episcopate). 4'In the meantime we send you a memorial of this gracious anniversary. Intending it likewise as a token of our earnest good will toward you. We moreover invoke upon- you every blessing for your happiness and welfare and lovingly Impart to you, your clergy and the faithful intrusted to your watchful care our apostolic benediction. "Given to St. Peter's, Rome, the 30th day of August, 1893, In the sixteenth' of our pontificate. . "LEO XIII, Pope. Upon the conclusion of the mass the clergy again formed in procession, the seminarians forming a guard of honor for the cardinal and the , priests. The music was a most Impressive feature of the occasion, the mass being sung by a very large choir with organ and orchestral accompaniment while the

Gregorian chanting of the Credo and the Te Deum by the seminarians, threehundred In number, was even more impressive. The music of the mass was the greatest that has ever been heard in the cathedral. The mass sung was one which Is rarely attempted or heard owing to its intricacies and complex construction. Immediately after the mass at the cathedral the prelates and the clergy, having doffed their priestly robes, went to St. Mary's seminary, where they were entertained at dinner by the president and faculty. Before entering the dining hall the cardinal was escorted to the main hall, where the congratulatory address of the clergy of the diocese was presented by the venerable Mgr. McColgan. Mgr. McColgan said In closing: "We pray God that the records of your future life may be as . the past, full of merits; that you may be blessed with years beyond your golden Jubilee, and when you depart from this life, that the members cf your flock who have gone before you will unite with the angels proclaiming In the heavenly court 'Her comes a high priest who. In his days, pleased God; whom the Lord has found Just.' Cardinal Gibbons' Response. In replying to It Cardinal Gibbons sold that he Was much fatigued by the labors' of the day and had not formulated anything to say. He could not help, however, expressing his gratification' at receiving the message. "I accept," he said, "these words with affection and Joy. I will have them aa my teachers and will bear them in mind. 1 will do everything In my power to attest my love and devotion to each and everyone of them." The. cardinal then spoke of the proposition of the clergy to present him with a purse, and added: "But while I rejected the money I drank In the affection of the heart., I wllr say in all sincerity that during my administration of the diocese . I have had the earnest support of all the clergy. What has been accomplished is due jto their sincerity and I make no claim for the work." The cardinal, in conclusion, paid a high tribute to his alma mater, the St. Mary's seminary. The company then repaired to the dining room, where covers were laid for 300. Cardinal Gibbons occupied the seat of honor, with Archbishop Satolli on his right and Archbishop Williams on his left. After dinner the first toast was "The Cardinal." He responded, speaking gratefully of the honors tendered him. It was his Intention, he said, to have no demonstration on the occasion of his jubilee. But the pope had Indicated his wishes that the event be held on a fitting scale, and he was obedient to his wishes. In conclusion he offered a toast to the apostolic delegate, and the toast was drank standing. Archbishop Satolli responded in Italian, and was frequently applauded. He said a number of complimentary things of the cardinal, stating that upon their first meeting in Rome in 1870 he was struck with the appearance of the young American bishop. and then expected great things of him. ' "The See of Baltimore" was responded to by Archbishop ICain of St. Louis, and "Our Country" was responded to by Archbishop Ryan of Philadelphia. "Our Hierarchy" was responded to by Bishop Hennessy of Kansas. Then followed an interesting feature. Dr. Morarity brought out the phonograph, and those who were near enough could hear the following message, which those who had heard Pope Leo declared to be a perfect repetition of his well-modulated tones: "From the City of Rome: "Leo sends to the people of America cordial greetings and his best wishes. Most heartily do we congratulate you, splendidly flourishing in civilization and wealth and the glory of manifold industries. We take part in your Joy and in the honors fittingly rendered to that moral man. Columbus, the Italian. We wish to all classes among you, through the blessing of heaven, copious increase of happiness and pleasure. The children of the Catholic church we embrace with special affection and we bestow upon them the apostolic benediction." Archbishop Ireland's Address. In the evening pontifical vespers were celebrated at the cathedral. Bishop Ireland delivered the sermon. Archbishop Ireland spoke as follows: "The record of the cardinal archbishop of Baltimore I speak it with pride and exultation Is the record I should have traced for my ideal bishop and leader of men in those solemn times through which the church is passing. The times are solemn. In no epoch of history since the opening of the Christian era did changes so profound and so far reaching occur. Intellectual curiosity is intense and peers with acutest eyes into the recesses of earth and sky; intellectual ambition, maddened by wonderous successes in many fields, puts on most daring wings and challenges all limitations of knowledge. Let things be new, is the watchword of present humanity, and to make things new Is its strong resolve; to this end are pledged its most fierce activities. "In the midst of these times the catholic church professes as her charter obliges her to conquer minds and hearts, Individuals and society. Her mission to the world is what it was for long centuries, but the world wears a new aspect. There cannot be much need of argument to show that there ought to be new movements of the helm in the ship of state and new unfurlings of canvas from her masts. Now is the opportunity for great and singular men among the sons of God's church. There is a discord between the . age and the church. We recall the fact with sorrow. I am not afraid to say that men in the church during the century, whose sun is now setting, have made the mistake of being too slow to understand the new age. The Church in her divine elements i3 unchangeable, supremely conservative. Her dread of change, so righteous in a degree is likely to go beyond the legitimate frontier, and to cover ground where change is proper." The archbishop continued in a strain of, encomium of the church ridiculing the idea that she was not ready to cope with all changes of the world.
