ST. JARLATH'S PARISH JARLATH'S CHURCH AND Wealthiest Catholic Church of the Great "West Side. FEW POOR IN ITS FOLD Its Marvelous Growth Under the Rev. Father Cashman. Maintain a Floarlahlas School for It Children, with 54M Pupils Costly Temple of AVorihlp.

At the corner of Jackson boulevard and Hermitage avenue, amid surroundings that give every indication of a high degree of prosperity, stands the handsome graystone edifice at St. Jarlath's, one of the wealthiest Roman Catholic churches of the West. St. Jarlath's parish is bounded on the north by Lake street to Robey, south on Robey to Adams, 'west on Adams to Rockwell, south on Rockwell to Polk, east on Polk to Lincoln, south on Lincoln to Taylor, east on Taylor to Ashland boulevard, north on Ashland boulevard to Polk, east on Polk to Loomis, north on Loomis to Madison, thence north on Sheldon to Lake street. As originally laid out In 1869 it extended from Loomis street to the Desplalnes river on the west, and from Lake street to Twelfth street.

Tho Catholic population of that district, scattered over the prairie, did not then exceed seventy-five families. Now there are dozens of churches there, with large and flourishing congregations and well-appointed and successful schcols. St. Jarlath's is a cosmopolitan parish; it is not distinctively Irish or English or American, but a harmonious aggregation of all of these. It is a parish in which there are very few poor people, and those families in the outlying portions that happen to need assistance have their wants amply provided for by the benevolence of the Ladies' Aid society of the church.

When Father Cashman took charge of St. Jarlath's, in 1872, the prairie was unbuilt and there were no improvements. After the effects of the panic of 1873, which were severely felt in Chicago, had passed away, people began to settle in great numbers" in the neighborhood of the church, and the parish rapidly developed. A striking illustration of conditions then existing as compared with those of today is presented by -the old wooden church, which now stands in the rear of the porperty, and is used for meetings, etc. Looking on the decaying timbers of the Did building and the solid and graceful proportions of the new church, ons realizes vividly the stride of progress that Chicago has made in these years.

Handsome Church and Furnishing. The new church was bilt in 1884, at a cost $100,000. It is of renaiesance Gothic style -pf architecture, and both exterior and interior are a harmonious combination of simplicity and beauty. The dimensions are, 120 feet long by seventy feet wide; the campanile tower is 125 feet high. The church possesses one of the two Raphael Madonnas in America; it cost 5,000, and was the gift of D.

F. Brem-ner. The interior la elaborately finished. I'he high altar is pure Gothic of red oak and gold. There are life-size statues of St.

Jar-lath, on the apex, of St. Peter, St. Paul, St. Patrick, and St. Bridget.

In the windows on the reredos are copies from the best Italian masters of the Saints Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John. The center window represents Rumens' "Descent from the Cross." Over the side altars, which bear statues of St. Joseph and the Blessed Virgin, are mosaics in stained glass from Dore's gallery of the "Annunciation," and the "Flight into Egypt." The richly illuminated memorial windows on the sides of the church, with their pictures of sainta and curious symbolism, are features In the decoration that at once attract the attention of the visitor. The saints depicted are all more or less connected with St. Jarlath, who is the reputed founder of the system of university education.

Two or three of these are of more than ordinary interest. One window bears a representation of two distinguished saints, St. Vergilius and St. Brendon, The former is said to have demonstrated In the seventh century the rotundity of the earth; the latter, if we may believe the tradition regarding him, crossed the Atlantic seven centuries before Columbus. St.

Ver- glllus Is represented holding a scroll, on which are traced the outlines of the globe, and the adventurous precursor of Columbus Is seen in a boat, with companions. On another window are pictures of St. Gall and St. Colum-banus, and; on the nrulllon over the window la a representation of the full moon, the meaning of which Is that In the time of these saints the controversy with regard to the date cf Easter Sunday was settled, the full moon Indicating that Easter was to be kept on the first Sunday after the first full moon after th6 21st of March, which Is the rule today. Other Interesting features of the Interior are the fourteen large paintings la oil which represent the stations of the cross.

They are copies from Titian, Michael Angelo, Paul yernese, and Correggio. St. Jarlath's Farlsh School. On the church property Is a large school, which Is attended by 6,000 children. In addition to the eight grades of the grammar chool.

It has an efficient and well-equipped kindergarten department, and the staff consists of fifteen sisters. Father Cashman gives the school much of his care and visits It every day to aupervise the -work of the various grades. The children attending the school have a rather unique encouragement to diligence In their studies? In the fact that the names of those who make a grade of over 80 per cent have the- distinction of appearing In the church calendar of St. Jarlath's, which la published monthly. The convent and the pastoral how, with the old church, used for ST.

society meeting, complete the 1W of church property. The church has several flourishing societies. Associated with though slightly distinct from the- church aoctotlea are the Ladles' and Gentlemen's Orders of Foresters, which arc benevolent societies. The St. Vincent de Paul and the Ladles' Aid society, with 300 members, are active In charitable work.

The latter takes car of all the poor In the pariah, provides food and clothing, tends them in time of sickness, and brings consolation In the hour of distress. The Sanctuary society has 400 members. Its central object is the general development of the doctrine of the Real Presence. Among the children's societies that of the Holy Angels numbers 400 members. It is practically the Sunday school of the parish.

The children are provided with reading matter suited to their age. The St. Aloyslus society consists of boys who have made their first communion. Lastly there Is the Children of Mary, consisting of girls under 16 years of age who have made their first communion. Cherrh Fairs Are Tabooed.

The Church of St. Jarlath's Is among the wealthiest In the city. The 600 families that constitute the parish belong to the prosperous part of the community, and as they are generous donors it is an easy matter to provide fully for such cases of want as occur. Every winter there are perhaps ten or twelve families that have to be cared for, but the Ladies' Aid society takes ample care Of them in every particular. In the matter of donating the church is proud of the fact that It stands alone In giving directly, and that it does not employ any indirect means, such as fairs or picnics, to raise contributions, believing that it is best to give out of hand without any consideration In the way of amusement.

The fact that St. Jarlath's Is wealthy does not argue a life of ease for lta priests, however. In addition to its own parishioners. It has a large and unique clientele If that expression -toay be used in connection with things spiritual. This Is the hospital clientele.

Within the boundaries of the parish is located the great Cook county hospital, the Presbyterian hospital, and the West Side hospital. In all these institutions, and at all times, there is a large proportion of Catholic patients, and to these the priests of St. Jarlath's are daily visitors in the fulfillment of the offices of religion. The whole city contributes its quota to these hospitals, as well as many of the adjacent states, but no distinction of state, parish, or nationality is known by Father Cashman and his assistants, who, day and night, the year round, are ready to respond to the calls of the afflictcl or dying, conducting a great and but little known work with the unobtrusive devotion and zeal of their holy calling. The pastor who has built up St.

Jarlath's Is the Rev. Thomas F. Cashman. He was born and received his early education In Ireland, coming to this country in 1864, at the age of 18. He pursued his theological studies In the old seminary of St.

Mary's of the Lake, which was burned in the great fire. He ministered for three years in Pekln, 111., and PRIESTS THE REV. FATHER CASHMAN, has been In charge of St. Jarlath's for twenty-seven years. The Rev.

T. E. Cox, principal assistant to Father Cashman, was born in New York and is a graduate of Niagara He has been associated with Father Cashman in his work for the last ten years. The second assistant, the Rev. M.

Cotter, has traveled far and widely In the discharge of the duties of his profession. As chaplain in the British army he was at one time stationed at Gibraltar. At another time he was spiritual guide to the British garrison on the island of As chaplain on board troopships he frequently made the voyage from England to India, It Is now five years since he Joined Father Cashman. la the charge of St. Jarlath's.

VIEWS OF TCHICAGO MEN Prol Wigmore Confident It Will Be of Great Benefit Leadlaar Merchants, on the Other Hand, (location the Wisdom of the New Agreement. Chicago business men are far from being unanimous In their opinions regarding the effect of the new treaty between the United States and Japan. Professor Wigmore of the law faculty of Northwestern university, who was for three years professor of law In Kelogijuki university. In Toklo, is confident the new treaty will bring beneficial results to both nations. Prominent men of trade, on the other hand, view with apprehension the change that puts all disputes under the juris- SCHOOL.

diction of Japanese courts. Professor Wig-more sums up the situation as follows: "For forty years we have had to stand in the vestibule of Janan, ring the bell, send up our card, and do business with the gentleman who came out to speak to us. But a change, as yet unappreciated in this country, will take place July 17 of this year. On that date will go Into effect a new treaty with Japan. This treaty was signed Nov.

22. This treaty Is to take the place of the four existing treaties of peace and amity, and is run for twelve years. If, however, either party shall wish to retire from Its agreement, either party may do so, provided eleven years shall have elapsed and said party shall have given the other twelve months' notice. "Japan's triumph in this treaty Is that the United States renounces its Insistence upon the privilege of exterritoriality, a principle and procedure which long has distressed a gentle and rapidly civilizing nation, and a stumbling block to better international feelings, which Great Britain consented to re move in her own revisory treaty witn Japan, ratified shortly before our own treaty was signed. But of the meaning of this conces sion later.

In brief, the other provisions of the treaty are these: It Is agreed by the signatories that the citizens of each shall enjoy in the other's country full liberties travel and reside, together with protection to life and property. There shall be OF ST. JARLATH'S Pastor. THE REV. free access to courts of Justice, exemption from military service, liberty of conscience, reciprocal freedom of commerce and navigation, no discrimination In charges, and freedom to bury countrymen after their religious customs.

In the matter of Imports and exports there shall be Imposed no higher duties than borne by like articles produced In any foreign country. It Is the intention that the trade and navigation of each country shall be placed in all respects by the other on the footing of the most-favored nation. There reserved the right to keep out objectionable pictures and literature, adulterated medicines, foods, or beverages, any articles objectionable on grounds of moral and public sanitation, and any articles In violation of trade-mark, patent, and copyright laws. Concession of the United. State.

"The provisions of the treaty -whereby the United SUte relinquishes Its exterritorial rights are explicitly and literally as follows: The several foreign settlements la Japan shall, from the date this treaty comes into force, he incorporated with the respective Japanese communes, and. shall henceforth form part of the general municipal system of Japan. The most competent Japanese authorities shall, therefore, assume all-municipal obligations and duties in respect thereof, and the common funds and property, If any, belonging to such settlements shall at the same time be transferred to the said Japanese authorities. When such incorporation takes place, existing leases In perpetuity, upon which property Is now held in the same settlements, shall be confirmed, and no conditions whatsoever other than those contained In such existing leases shall be imposed in respect to such property. It is, however, understood that the consular authorities mentioned In the same are In all cases to be replaced by the Japanese authorities.

All lands which may previously have been granted by the Japanese government free of rent for the public purpose of the said settlements shall subject to the right of eminent domain, be permanently reserved- free of all taxes and charges for Jh public purpose for which they were originally sei apart. "This, then, contains our agreement to no longer fall back, when we encounter Japanese law, upon the privileges of exterrllerality; that Is to say, upon trlsl la our own consular courts- but we herein declare our willingness, when we sue a Japanese, to do it in his own courts, taking-the chances for fair play which that progressive little nation may be inclined to grant us. It Is a victory for Japan, with whom we wish -more profitable relations, and it apparently works no great harm 10 U8- Justice Sol Struuajer. "Here are some figures showing that Justice la no stranger to the alien suing in a Japanese court. LasUear seventy-one civil ouits were brought by foreigners.

In Judgment was given for the foreign plaintiff, in ten for the Japanese defendant. Twenty-one are still pending, and the rest were settled out of court, Upon such conditions as these rests the new treaty. Seventeen nations had consular courts. Great Britain broke away in advance of us five years ago. Japan Is convinced that the only way to fight the West is to adopt Western methods.

China is losing because she can't change her methods. On our part it was a sense of Justice and the desire to expand trade that brought about the abolition of exterritoriality. Japan is tow open to an American, though be may not own land." Another Chicagoan, cosmopolite rather, who has studied the Japanese at close quarters, indeed. Is one of the largest Importers of Japanese art goods in this country, is John C. I'hrlaub.

HI characterization of the Japanese it; as candid as it is pessimistic. He says of treaty and? people: "This treaty is cne of the worst things that could happen. I sec no possible use it can be in the promotion of trade. Under the old practice, when a foreigner was in trouble, he could fall back upon his consul; under the new he may languish ten years in Jail and nobody know it. And their Jails cold, and such food! The Japanese, I eay, are a vile people.

True, they have the varnish of civilization, but Inside they are They wear white' col -lara and take off their hats and have forms lit politeness, but they are not gentlemen. Now the Chinaman when he purports to be a gentleman is one. Who are the accountants of the Japanese? Not Japs, but Chinamen. Here is what 1 mean by Japanese character: In front of the English club In Yokohama I saw a crowd of fifty natives, manipulating a little child in a way decency forbids me to describe. An Englishman waded into the crowd, laying his cane right and left.

No. the Jap is only veneered. The beet Jap is the farmer. The qualities that foreigners count virtues In the Japanese are their vices. Their real virtues are not known outside.

I see no good to us in the new treaty." George F. Stone, secretary of the board of trade, says: "Japan, as I have studied it in the Investigators sent to this country, and In the correspondence I have had with representative natives, feels an urgent and strenuous impulse toward development. It finds the sharpened necessities of competition call for scholastic training, and this it Is giving the men who are to promote the era of remarkable commercial development that I believe now at hand. It Is a splendid comment on Japanese Intelligence that she has opened her dpors, for with isolation Is no progress." Can See Little Benefit to Commerce. H.

X. Higinbotham," whose Impressions of the Japanese are those both of merchant and tourist, says; "I do not see how the new treaty will greatly affect trade. If we make something tbey want, they will buy it, and vice versa. Nor do I see how it can much affect the status of the resident foreigner save in the case of the broker and commission man who may find himself more embarrassed than formerly in the absence of consular Jurisdiction." E. Wilson Brown is the Japanese buyer in the house of which Mr.

Higinbotham is one of the heads. The long and short of Mr. Brown's opinion of the Japanese Is that he has little use for them, albeit, in a mercantile sense, he uses them a great deal for Marshall Field Co. Mr. Brown says: "It's hard enough even now to sue and get a claim against a Japanese, but heaven knows what it will be when this treaty goes Into effect I don't state it too broadly when I say that the Japanese have no real commercial Integrity.

This, I believe, every foreign resident of Yokohama of thirty years' standing will indorse. In six months after the treaty is in effect I predict Japan will be in a struggle with some foreign power." PARISH. FATHER COX, Assistant Pastor. So the actual opinion of capable observers runs. Whatever the ultimate good of the new arrangements, it seems a fact that the resident foreigners In Japan view the with consternation.
