HOLD COMMISSION GOVT. CONVENTION (American News Service)
Galveston, Texas, Nor. 19. Galveston, which was the first city to Install
the commission form of municipal government, is to entertain a city commission congress next week. The
purpose of the gathering Is to give opportunity for an exchange of views in
eminent and to discuss various sug
gestions looking to its Improvement.
Many cities throughout the country
have signified their intention to send
delegates to the congress.
Prices are very high in Rio'de Ja
neiro, which explains why the Bra-
slllan buying In thia country regards the market as very cheap and gets
the reputation of being a magnificent
spender.
That morning Father Paraclet came
out of his presbytery as he had done
every day for the last forty years, passed through the village street and
went through muddy , paths winding
between vineyards and fields towards his beloved church.
This church, , which ! was quite a
humble building, waa about a mile and a half from the village. It had been erected many years ago so that It
might serve for two parishes. Father Paraclet walked slowly and puffed as be walked aionj,'. He was an old man now, nearly seventy years of age, and his faith In what he was pleased to call tn his simple language "Divine Providence" was Immutable. No matter what happened. It was always for the best. Nothing could happen unless Divine Providence wished it to happen. He held that everything' from a summer shower to a deluge was sent by Divine Providence. . It was his parishioners' duty to tbank Heaven for a fire, as well as for a legacy. However the faithful
were allowed to . pray that disasters
might be averted and that Divine Providence would shed happy events
and blessings like manna, upon the heads of sinful men. That was Father Paraclet's faith.
He himself unlocked the church
door as was his custom every morn
ing, and then he rang the Angelus, the two parishes were too poor to pay a sacristan to perform this task.
Having rung the Angelus, Father
Paraclet crossed the church, went up
the aisle, made a genuflection, ' and
was beginning mechanically to open the door of the sacristy, when he suddenly started; it was already open.
Ah," said he, "how strange! How
was it that I forgot to close it last night r
He went Into the sacristy and op
ened all the cupboards. Suddenly an
idea occurred to him. Several of his brother priests had lately spoken to
him of a gang of sacreliglous burglars who broke into churches at night and
stole the sacred vessels and ornaments in order to sell them to dealers
in curiosities and works of art.
He could not believe that anyone
would do such a wicked thing. He absolutely could not believe it. God would not allow It. At all events the sacreliglous thieves would be sure to
fall dead on the spot If they dared lay their hands upon the holy - vessels. Nevertheless, he opened the deep drawer In which he alwaya kept the monstrance. In his terror and grief, Father Paraclet nearly had a fit the monstrance had disappeared! Father Paraclet moved everything, hunted everywhere; he sought in vain. He was still looking for It when the little acolyte, Pascal Seurat, appeared in the doorway. "Pascal," said he to the child, "I can't find the monstrance; you know what I mean, our beautiful monstrance which we only use on great festivals." Pascal, quite overcome by the cure's condescension In conlding his troubles to him did not know what to say. Father Paraclet continued: "Now, my lad, you must run straight off to the mayor and tell him tell him!" He was so upset that he began to stammer. Only think. His beautiful monstrance! Even the abbe of Saint
Omer had not a finer one! You could not find a more handsome monstrance in the whole diocese of Arras. Its shape was very peculiar, and it was set with precious stones. It had be
longed to the little church for more than two hundred years, and it was
only used on great occasions.
Pascal had not reached the church
door before - Father Paraclet again 4
felt that be were going to faint with grief and horror, and he had to rush off and stop the little acolyte.
He bad just recollected that when
the Inventory of bis church was taken.
be, with the help of some pious ladies had managed to bide the monstrance and thus avoided having to declare it. Now it would mean ruin to him if he were to . say that a valuable monstrance had been stolen from his church. The prefect would immediately direct an inquiry to be made, and every one knew what that meant. Father Paraclet would be declared guilty; be would be prosecuted, fined, imprisoned perhaps. - What an awful prospect. It would be much better to say nothing about; the matter. How . had .the .thieves been able to enter? He could find no trace to guide blm. - Both doors and windows were uninjured. The burglars had probably got in through the belfry which was
so low that anyone, by slipping under
church and return the same way. But that idea did not occur to Father Paraclet. ' . " ' I have already said that Father Par
aclet was a simple minded old gentleman, and that he held that Divine Providence was in everything. Men
would have left traces of their visit;
They could only enter by breaking open a door or by smashing a glass window. Now, nothing of the sort bad happened. So Father Paraclet, full
of admiration for the ways of Provid
ence declared aloud that men could
not have stolen his precious monstrance.
And then he came to a second conclusion, no less irrefutable than the
first, that it could only be Divine Prov
idence. Perhaps the good God want
ed a monstrance in Heaven, and so
He sent an angel on earth to fetch
one for Him. Yes, that was evidently
what had happened. And Father Pa
raclet repeated Job's words:
'The Lord gave and. the Lord hath
taken away! Blessed be the name of
the Lord."
But Pascal had been unable to keep
the news to himself. Father Paraclet
having finished bis examination had
hardly made up his mind to the fact that a miracle had been accomplished in his church when a crowd of bareheaded women in clattering wooden
shoes, arrived outside the church.
"What has happened, M. le cure?"
they asked.
"Oh, my dear daughters. Providence
has done us the very great honor to
work. a miracle in our humble church.
The good God has taken our, or rath
er, I ought to say. His monstrance,
He explained what had happened. He showed them over the church, and seemed so thoroughly convinced that
he had guessed aright that they, too,
began to believe that a miracle had
really taken place.
However, some old backsliders the smallest village possesses one or two stiff necked reprobates laughed at
the good priest's excessive credulity,
The villagers were soon divided Into
two camps those who believed that fa miracle had been accomplished and those who had the impudence to as- ', sort that it was nothing but a bur
glary. e ; ? . Another surprise was In store for Father Paraclet when he entered the sacristy, one morning about' a week later. , The good God had returned the monstrance! There it was stand
ing on the top of the sacristy cupboard. -
Father Paraclet had already begun
to repeat Job's words The Lord bath taken away! The -Lord hath restored
what He took! Blessed be the name
of the Lord! when he noticed that a
dirty scrap of paper folded in four had been pushed ' under the foot of his beloved monstrance. He pulled it out and read the following words
Here's your monstranz. It's brass.
It ain't no good; it's a fake, and its
