She instantly replied: "Then gather all Hie Sislers and give me the full Do minican ritual, and in the afternoon I win take in that poor child, naming an aspirant who bad suffered much In her journey tn Hie house of Cod.

For two after the doctor regard- il her as in the inmost danger, but on Friday night ho congratulated her and her community on a "solid improvement'' in her eon.litiqn. and all saw reason to hope that she might, be spared for some months. During the i.igbi en-Hi anxiety was about her, and ii was decided that she should receive the linal absolution on Saturday morning. However. woke so cheerful and almost gay that the inf'irma-rian waited to mention it until she should have paved the way.

She chat toil sweetly ami brightlybut asked once, abruptly. "What day is it?" "Saturday. Our Lady's day." was the answer. "How beautiful." she said in a lingering way that was remembered a moment or so alter, when she seizeil her eruoiiix as il in pain. The inlirma-rian instantly rang a Sister's bell.

"Why do you call. Sister? It is not necessary." said the mother quietly, sinking on her pillow. "Mother, do not leave us," said the Sister.

As the chaplain, summoned instantly, began the prayers ofrecom-menilntion her lips moved quietly and were pressed to the crucifix once or twice.

Influence. You may enter the Catacombs of Rome, or the Mammoth Cave of Kentucky, or some great labyrinth of ancient or modern times, where ah infinite number of roads branch off in every direction, and occasionally cross each other again. You may possibly trace your way in the dark and without a guide over these devious ways, and emerge safely into the light and open ground. But no pains will ever make It possible to trace out the course through all its ramifications, and to all Its conclusions, of a single deed or word or thought, good or evil. And yet how thoughtlessly many of us live, as If each action were final In Itself.

Every Incident of life is. If we know It, eternal In its consequences for weal or woe. (Special correnpniulcncc Catholic ani Tim i Ciiic.v.ai, May 17. No little surprise was occasioned Tuesday of last, week when the announcement was made publicly that the Cathedral parish had been divided so as to form a new cotiKienat ion of CaHiolic residents in Ihe West Etui.

Mother Superior. of Alen oT "the convent of St. Francis Xavier, Forty ninth street anil Kvans avenue, assembled at the convent Saturday morning for the purpose of selecting a superior to fill Ihe vacancy caused by Ihe death of Mother M. Cenevlove Cranger, which occurred a few wceka ago.

Tho Most Rev. Archbishop Qnigley presided at. the conference and ihe result of the hal loting was the selection of Sister M. de Sales Ryan, principal of St. James' parochial and high schools, as the superior of the community.

Mother M. tie Stiles, the superior, is undoubtedly one of the most brilliant and accomplished members of the community; a woman of great intellect, practical experience in governing, quick perception and remarkable executive ability, as evidenced in her work in SL school for twenty years. This school was opened in 1S8-I with 480 pupils and today it numbers 1(i77 in grammar and high school departments, and the efllciency of the work done under Sister de Sales ts illustrated hr the number nf In pupils who have so creditably qualified as teachers in the city schools. The new mother superior was born forty-six years ago at Vmcennes. Ind She was educated at the old academy of Sislers of Mercy.

Over 20,000 man, it Is expected, will be in line, composed of Foresters, Knights of Columbus, Knights of St. John, Catholic Knights of America and many other church societies, all in full regalia, headed by their bands. Archbishop Qulgley, who Is to celebrate the pontifical high mas and dedicate the -hurch at ten o'clock, will be met near his residence by the various societies and escorted to the church. The sermon on the occasion will be given by Archbishop Messmer of Milwaukee.

In the afternoon Bishop Muldoon will administer confirmation. P. I. N. The, Catholic religion Is the only religion 'that can keep its Identity without losing its life, and that can keep Its life without losing Its Identity.

Pope Pius it is said, has issued another "Motu I'roprio" on Church music. Copies are said to have been received In New York and will he Immediately taken up by the diocesan committee appointed by Archbishop Farley to act on the reform of Church music In the province. The proclamation announce: Catholic world that the Pope dered the publication at the ,1 a of "liturgical hooks i.c chant of the Roman Church as re-slorori hy us." Permits will be granted to publishers in all parts of the world to reprint or publish extracts from the manuals as prepared at the Vatican. It is the plan of the commission recently appointed by Pius to simplify in this way Ihe reform In Church music and make it uniform. In the new encyclical the Pope says: Hy our Proprio" of the November, and ty the subsequent decree published at our order by the Congregation of Sacred Rites on the mil January, 1MU4, We restored to the Human Church its ancient Gregorian chant, that chant which it has inherited from the fathers, which it has jealously guarded in its liturgical codices, anil which the most recent studies have very happily brought bark to its primitive purity.

But in order to complete, as is fitting, the work iliat has been begun, and to furnish to our Roman Church anil to all ihe churches of the same rite the common text of the liturgical Gregorian melodies. We have decreed to undertake with the type of our Vatican printing: office the publication of ihe liturgical books containing the chant of the Holy Roman Church re stored by us.

For the last seven years Father Murgas lias been working on his invention, having established his workshop ill Llie rear of 4be-jart5onage: Tre has also established a station two miles away from his home, and from these two points the messages have been sent and received in all the stages of the invention's development.

Angell Tells of the Pari thty Tah in Humane Society. I. query as to whether Catholics take part in the society for doing away with cruelty to animals, George T.

Angell writes as follows in Our Dumb Animals: We answer that among our best friends, now dead, were John Boy lei O'Reilly and Patrick Donahoe Short before O'Reilly's death he came to the Boston Theatre to hear our address to some three thousand Boston drivers. The last time we remember seeing him was at bis office, when he took down our "Autobiographical Sketches" from a shelf over his table and said, "Angell, 1 always keep that here and sometimes when I get a lit tle time I like to take It down and read It." Among living Catholics we have long reckoned Archbishop Williams and our Boston Mayor, Patrick A. Col lins, with some others, as among our good friends. At the great celebration of Archbish op Williams' eightieth birthday, when he was receiving the kind words of hundreds of priests and thousands of Catholic friends, we wrote htm that we were glad he had lived so long and hoped he would live a good deal longer, and were surprised to receive from him a kind letter written with his own hand, which we have carefully preserved. To Pope Leo at Rome we sent our publications and plans asking his aid in carrying our work into Catholic countries, and received a most kind and cheering reply.

But how do they aid you? Archbishop Williams ordered one of our first "bands of Mercy" established in his Cathedral, and he with' other Catholic clergy have been liberal contributors of gifts. In many ways the Archbishop has aided us. Through the Influence of one Catholic lady Ave thousand dollars was paid atjme time Jo Massachusetts eenlty established for this The commission is composed of musicians in various pati Ike world and is under sworn obligation of secrecy. The encyclical farther says that, the approbation given by th Pope and the commission and indorsed by the Congregation on Sacred Kiws to chant books thus compiled will be of such a nature that it will no longer be lawful for any one to approve any chant books or musical editions whirl do not in their entirery conform, to those prescribed by the Roman editions. This bull seems to settle finally any opposition raised in this country to the change ami to force the Gregorian music on the dioceses, even though they are not in sympathy wtth that school.

It was stared by Bishop O'Connor, upon his return from Rome several weeks ago, that the reform, if forced, meant the introduction of boy choirs, as there is not a sufficient supply of men who can be depended on: for all services and as the Gregorian chants require only male voices. Nothing has yet been made public about the plans of the Jiew York committee, but it is believed that they will follow the program laid down by a similar body in Dublin and that, ot the committee of the diocese of Cin cinnati. Archbishop Ryan last week appointed a committee to act for htm in Philadelphia, and if is understood that the hierarchy of the entire country will act on the question this month.

THE USE OF LATIN. Five Good Reasons for Having Only a Universal Language. Why does the Church use the Latin language? For these reasons: 1. Because a universal community requires a universal language. The Church of Christ is universal.

2. Ilecause It does not change. If. for example, Ihe Church should use French In one or her formulas alone, that of baptism, she would have been obliged to change It over sixty limes, in the so-called Anglo-Saxon of one thousand years ago she could not be understood except hy experts. 3 Hecanse nothing ran equal the dignity of the Latin language, its clesrnese or Its beauty.

It the language of science and civilization, and deserves to be the language of an unchangeable religion. 4, Hecanse It lifts the liturgy of the Church above the every day usage of wordH. which alters their sense and debase It by llcenllousness. This misfortune has actually befallen the hntt-llsh liturgy of the Anglo-American Episcopalians. 5 Finally, a universal langunce speaks of a universal brotherhood and makes a Catholic at home In all Roman Catholic churches of the world.

Besides, he understands the language, though unlearned, by the ceremonies th rhnrch. or from his prayer- book, which contains Its entire mean-: ing In his own tongue.

i.ni il fall. CATHOLIC DOCTORS TO FORM SOCIETY. Fraternal Organization, Like thoie in Europe, to be Formed in this Country. A movement is being set afoot In on in ry lo form a National Catholic Medical Society, on tho plan of existing in Frame, Spain, Holland iiml Italy. The call for the formation of such a so.

iety in the United Slates comes from Home, where a few days ago odd Catholic physicians assembled from all parts til KnroH' and held a congress. An audience was granted them by Pope I'illS X. The rules under which the organization is tn be governed are: 1. The Catholic doctors, with the ulijeit ol establishing a fraternal union mining themselves and of renewing the anient Christian traditions, decide to found a society in each country tinder the protect Ion of the holy doctors, St. Luke.

St. Cosnias and St. Pamian. The objects or the society are (a) the application of the Christian virtues and professional charity in the pin. lice of medicine and (1) the study of medical questions with especial alien i ion to those regarding faith, moral and deontology.

They declare that in this they submit to the decisions of ecclesiastical authority. 3. Societies will adopt as their pat-ronnl roast St. Luke's day. 1.

Tho societies will avoid all political questions. 5. The societies founded in the different countries are to be Independent in their different functions, but In order to create among them a fraternal bond of union they may be kept in communication with one another through their respective presidents. They will aim at holding general reunions, the presidency of which will lie given the presidents of each Boclety In turn. 7.
