ONLY A TRAMP.

"Only a tramp" that's what they say,

As he wanders from door to door,

"Only a tramp" as he trudges away

With a heart that's heavy and sore:

The world with all its splendor and gold

Is revelling in mirth and in sin-

Only ~ tramp-out in the cold,

Nor shelter, n~r refuge for him.

Once a rosy cheeked youth and neat­

A fond mother's care and joy-

Her tender· heart for ever did beat

For that darling fair-haired boy:

A way she passed and that lovely child

Went forth amid the haunts of men,

Lost, mid the shouts of a populace wild- •

Their clamours-their stir, and their din.

One~ fickle fortune upon him did smile

Witb the warmth ofa rainbow shower­

Unknown to her snares-free from all guile­

He snatched rare gems from her bower:

Alas 1 she change with the changing moon,

Forsook him and left him to weep,

To wander alone in sadness and gloom

Mid dark tapering shadows to creep.

The warm light glows in yon mansion bright­

Sweet music floats out in the gale-

He stops and looks up at the stars of night

With a face that is deathlike pale:

Knocks for admitance, a crust he requests,

He's met with a haughty some stare,

Is ordered away with a voice that det.ests

To roam in the land of despair.

And only a tramp both ragged and bare,

His proud head now seeking the ground­

The snows of old age are decking his hair­

In the arms of distress he is found.

The bonds of misfortune encircle him fast­

A man once noble and pure-

A son of the soil is passing away

From griefs to a haven secure.

And only a tramp, as onward he strays

Mid the jeers of a cold, cold world-

But hope-fond bird-still cheereth his ways

With rosy hued wings unfnrl'd:

He roams this orb both wide and round

Despised by his brothers in race,

·weary and sad to poverty bound­

He longs for his Maker's face.

REMINISCENCES OF SUMMER.

At no time in the year does nnJ.uro present a more bo:mtiful and attractive appe::tranoe than in summ er, and at no particular time in tllis season does she seem to speak so forcibly to t he heart of man as on a calm bTiabt Sunday . eveuing. On other days and at other

E> .

honrs her charms mn:y be fasc inating and her beauty and loveliness bewitching, but it " requires the calm holy silence of a clc:clining Sabbath to call ibrth her secret spells and to g i vo her that power of captivating the human soul and of hearing it beyond tbe considera: tion of mere perishable things to thoughts of its home above. Nvt everyone wheH oppressed with care and surrounded with the turmoil of everyday life, can ap­preciate the beauties of nature Ol' r ead her lessons of instruction, but few and blunt are they, who, at a time when tbe world is at rost and all is calm an(l still, ·when care and trouble are laid aside and man's tboughts naturally wander beyond the bourne· of this short life, can stand unmoved amid her lovely scenes, can walk among her groves and streams, her Jakes o.nd woods, ::~,nd

not tcel a soft soothing influence creeping through thcil' spirits and calming the storms that rage within their hearts. It is not, however , in the morning ho.u ~:s or at noonclay that this holy influence is felt, but is is in the evening when the spiritual exerc ises ofthP clay are over and our souls are r econciled to their Creator, when the noise and bum of bnsy life are hushed and the si nking sun is casting his last faint gleams abroad over a qniet and peacefi.~l world. I remember a cert.'l.in one of those eveLings not long ago; with the heauty and g1;andeur of which I was more than usunlly impressed. It was in the month of J nne-that fairest· of the twelve. Vespers were over, and, alone with nature and with Gocl, I was wandering home across the fields. The evening was warm and bright. Sweet songs of birds echoed from ·every side, while now and then ·were heard floating in from the distance faint lowing of cattle or the shouts of h ::~,ppy

children as they roamed the fields gathering in their father's flocks. Wild odorif~tou s flowers bloomed close by my path, and the gentle breeze as it swept along bore with it a fragrance so delicious as to seem born of some fairy bower. Broad extensive views stretched ,ant from every side. To the west, immediately beyond a large field of waving grain was a public roacl .along which small crowds of pious country people were slowly wending their way homeward the setting .sun, partly nestled in hills and woods, gleamed bright and clear the silvery waters of a beautiful lake

Before me lay extensive fields of pasture-land, clotted here a nd there with tall wide-l)ranched iso~ate Qaks,

wh ich flung their long shadows far out upon the green sward. Through this flowed a beautifu l li ttle stream ~ith lovely hanks, to which the fl ocks alwnys arne to drink, and which after mnch curvwg fLnd twi sting, finally emptied into the lake beyond tbe road. Back­wm·d to the north and west, ns far os the eye could reach, were to be seen odd herds of stock windh1g their way along meadow brinks, lowly roof-> of poor men's houses rising up among the rolling hills, while close at hanc1, upon an em inence, ·surrounded with maple trees, stood our little hou«e of prayer-its t::~,ll

white spire now bright with t.be reflections of t he de­cl ining sun. Presently from the belfry of the little church which I had left a short time before, the Angelus bell rang clear and loud, and its j oyous notes, floating far out in 'the calm evening sky, seemed to me like the mnsical tones of some he!J,ven- sent messenger calling upon sinlul man to reverence the name of Him who for om· sake "w~s made flesh and dwelt amongst u;;." I raised my hat and reverently said the Angelus; mHl my soul, already stirred with holy emotions, was now filled with heav enly j oy. Sitting down upon the stile that led across to the woodland , I reflecterl upon tlte happiness of the blest in Heaven, and the mi8ery of man here below; I thought -of the shortness and uncer­t ainty of life, and of the utter nothingness of all that this wo rld can g ive. How long I remained bnrie(l in this meditation I can not tell; b11t when I Arose, all was calm and quiet: the beeeze was hushed, the birds had flown, the fi elds were without their fiooks, and the sun was jnst sinking below the horizon. 1 watched its last red i·ays streaming over h'ill and dale, and forming golden paths which I almost longed to tread, thinking they led away Lo tllat 11eautif11l world beyond "where the wicked cease from troubling and the weary are at rest."

Slowly it sank out of sight, and the beautiful crimson colors that decked the whole westem horizon were soon melting away before the shades of night. Filled wrth pions emotions, ancl with ::~, picture Qf the beauti­ful scenes I had witnessed indelibly impressed upon my soul , I continned my journey homeward, fLnd as I passed along beneath the wide-brnnchecl oaks, I recalled those few lines- of poetry, which I remember having seen somewhere:

"Lives there ::t time when moments fiy More peacefully than all besides? It is all this time below A summer eve in Sctbbathctide.

ST. VIATEUR'S COLLEGE JOURNAL. 149

Lsfayette l!ldiana; October 1884.

De..'\r Fater Marsile, In my previous )E,tter to you I spoke of the character

of the land and the aborigines of New Mexico and Arisona but necessarily in. a general way and without descending iuto details.

.ew Mexico and Arizona became territory of the United States by treaty in 1848: one of the results of the Mexican War. Except along the Rio Grande in New Mexico.and (if my memory serves mE>) at great intervals along the Gila (pronounced, Hila) in Southern Arisona there were no habitations of civilized man. The Rio Grande valley was the more populously inbabited. There were anta F~ whose beginning dates back to 1583 as a settlement and Albuquerque whiGh had its beginning alJont 1650. Then were haciendas ( farms) up and down the Rio Grande of cour e. ·when American troops took po ession in 1846 these regions were unknown land (terra incognita)to most of the world. Albuquerque and anta Fe were adobe (mud dried) towns-each with its

adobe cathedral and its scraggling houses. There was no comunication to speak of with the United States and the intercourse with Mexico-the parent government-was difficult and over n long line of broken t·omunication· The governor who ruled over New Mexir;o and Arizona, for they were one pro~rince under the refjime of old Mexico-was so far from the source of nuthority that he ruled pretty much as an autocrat. The character of the people too, permitted that. They were ignorant and poor, and the nature of their civlli­zation and the rude preponderance in influence of one in authority made redress for injustice or tyranny practically impossible. What had made them poor and ignomnt and improvident then as their descendants are to-tiny, was the con tant troubles from Navajoe incur­sion from the west, and uprising and vengeance from the naturally peaceable but too much goaded Pueblo Indians, whose rnde towns-Zuni, Taos, Aconia, Laguna, IsleL<J., San Domingo-with the exception ot the fit t are all within or near the valley of the R10 Grande. Then there were intermarriages with the Indians­generally pueblos-with what result the reader can imngine who bas conceived from my previous letter an idea of the low state of the Pueblo Indian.

When, therefore, our troops took posess~on in 1846 anta Fe and Albuquerque were the principal towns in

the territory now known as Arizona and New Mexico. The people were poor-a mongrel race-their language a parois-they were ignorant mentlllly and sadly off spiritually. The church had not been able notwithsand­ing bet efforts to keep her influence fully alive and healthy in these rude and distant parts. There must

have been a sort of scheme or what is equally bad a chronic state or remissness and sca.ndal prevailing. Against this staLe of things the noble and heroic Arch­bishop Lamy who still lives and labors was sent there about the year 1845 and the result ofhis apo tolic labors are bearing to.day rich fi·uit. ew Mexico and Arizona will soon be, if they are not already, entitled to be pointed to as brightening jewels in the earthly crown of Mother Church. To go into details would be incon istent with your limited pace. ufficent to say that there is every sign of zeal on the part of pastors and reciprocal ft!rvor on the part of the laity- eviden­ced by numerous new churches- new schools for boys, ancl academic.<; in charge of sisters for girls asylums; in fuct all those outward signs of spiritual life which are the notes and glory of the church Y\'herever the machinations of unjust legislation have not shacklei he1· in her tendency to spread knowledge, inculcate morality and virtue, and practice charity. The Jesuits­noble soldiers of the church who are so able and so wil­ling to bear the brunt-and are found ever in the front of the battle have a school or college at L.'I.S Vegas and are building churches elsewhere. Father Ferari, whose acquaint."l.nce formed one of those pleasant episodes which the traveler near tries to remember, with t he zeal and efficiency characteristic of his order-the Jesuit­has finished, against great odds and by enduring humiliations worthy of primitive ages, a beautiful stone church in New Albuquerque and collected a. congregation. I hope this page will come under-his eye and let him see that his labors in the vineyard are au odor of sweetness to those who love tO see an humble man laboring to make the world better.

In the first years of our authority in these regions the influx of Americans was the occasion of a great deal of race hostility. As a rule those upon whom a thing ot this kind takes strongest hold are the ignorant, the vulgar and the vicious; and hence up t<> within very recent years, until Americalld had gained the ascendancy in weight by wealth, numbers and villany, the new Mexican desperado was a common species, and the knife or the bullet were the arbiters of most controversies. This of course has changed. And New Mexico especially with the growth of nbw towns, the development by peace-loving capital of her mines~ the growth of immense cattle inter­ests, and the steady tide of immigration form the states all made easy by that great instrument of change-the railway-has become a very civil place and a great resort for the seeker of pleasure amid the debris of three crumbled and crumbling civilizatioPs. As I have had occasion to remark its climate is superb; and its scenery in many places, wheae snow-capped ranges or mesa fronts, worn wondrous by glaciers and volcanoes, vary. the surface, is very grand.

THE TALKING MACHINE.

Sin('e the creation of the world each century bas been renowned for its wonders which at first astounded and bewildered the people ot the period, until becom­ino- 'accnstomed to them, their novelty and wonder soon

0 ' wore away and they became as common place as other things. The misfortune has been reserved for the nine­teenth centum·y to produce a wonder which time appears incapable of affecting, and which is as great a source of wonderment as when it first came into existence. We may search the pR.ges of history until we become as aged as Methuselall anrl yet we will find nothing to equal it. The Talking Machine seems to have _concentrat­ed in itself all the wonders of the past, nntil it can be justly called the mo&t wonderful as well as the most diabolical of wonders. We may ask; what is there abo ut this thing, that it meri ts so great a distinction? To answer this is impossible. The talking Machine is a pestif­ferous thing, it is a nuisance to all whom it comes in contact with. It is a common t biug, a very common thing, in fact too much so for the welfare of mankind. It may be found in all places,at all times and under all guises. Its Machinary is a wondel'fu l piece of macha­nism. The movement and noise of its jaws remind one of the movement and noise of a v ery ancient thrashing machine. Dislocation or a break in its machinery seems impossible, it never wears ·out and never seems to require oiling.

Start it and it almost surpasses the power of man to stop it. But woe to him who starts it, his existence will become a burden. Go where he will the voice of the talking Machine, like an avenging nemisis, continually haunts him, his days are full of misery, hi s nights are sleepless, until at last he sinlrs1into an untimely grave, remembered only when his epitaph, " thifl poor man was talked to death," may chance to attract the attention of the passer-by warning h:m to avoid such a dreadful fate. The t alking machine is a most accomodating thing, it is always ready and willing to rattle for you at a moment's :notice. Its voice is as sweet as the musicnl echo of a saw-mill. Its nerve is of the cast iron kind. Insinuate gently and pathetically that it ought to be weary, it only redoubles its efforts. Sit on it in your hardest man­ner, it proves to you that it is not sitable. T ry t o avoid it and it is there before yourself. The best way is not to try to avoid it. W hen you see it coming keep perfectly

cool. When it begins to clatter put on a beaming smile of saqness, talk to it of the wonders of nature, of the beautiful and celestial morn and the lovely and bright stars. Explain to it the glories of the ethereal galaxy of conglomeration of the heavenly bodies. Initiate it into the mysteries of the aurora borealis. Tell it how mnch air one is supposed to inh!l.le aud exhale in each'breath, <l.lid what becomes of those who use more than thei tl share. By doing this you wi ll soon have the satisfaction of seeing it regard you with a look of such uuspeakable woe, as it slowly betakes itself to more guileless victims that, were you not fighting for self preservation, would almost induce yon to subm it to the diabolical fate in which it involves its unwilling b ut less crafty victims.

Silence.

TOBACCO.

It is clifficult. to understand how certain articles of food came to be first used, articles that are now cons id­ered necessary; but it is beyond all ,underst anding to · conceive how anyone could take pleflsure in any article havi'ng the taste of tobacco. Now tobacco is considered one iofthc ln xurics. From the time it wtts introduced even to the present day, people ha ve differed in opinion as to its use.

Sir Walter R'Lle igh was the first mnn to in trod nee to­bacco into England, and it is relatedofhim tllfl t, one cln:Y while enjoy ing the fumes of the weed, a servant entered his room, carrying a pitcher filled with some beverage, and seeing his master env eloped in clouds of smoke, he dashed the contents of the v essel over him, in order to save his master's life.

All pernicious habits are sure to find ad voc11tes, and, as might be expected, t obacco is not without its legien of defenders.

Though we rend in the rlaily press accounts of many persons, especially the y oung, who have shortene(1 their lives -by the excessive use of tobacco, yet, these facts will not deter others from using it, and we have the unanimous testimony vf the most skillful and experi­ence-d physicians that, tor the vast majority of persons, the use of t obacco is most injurious.

There is a great deal of vanity in the practice of using tob:wcn. Many young men will not conskler themselves fully equipped unless they ar~ provided with a cigar, and jndging from the way they expectorate, and the very faces they make, one wonld conclude that it was distasteful t.o them. Bitter medicine, in time of sickness, or in tim e of health, is repugnant to bothold andyonng, but in time of perfect health, many yotmg boys with a fu ll knowledge of the con&equences, will not hesitate to

subject themsel v·es to the most dreadful attack of sick~ ness, and what for? to become accustomed to the use of tobacco, which will undermine their constitution.

Tobacconists s.catter broadcast their gaudy placarts and tl,le advertisements are so pl<easing to the eye that one who did not know might suppose tobacco to be sweet iNstead of otherwise. The nice pictures, the varied brands, the innate desire of boys to become men before their time, aU tend to draw them on, until they become habitual chewers and smokers.

The cigarette is tbe latest and at the same time, the mildest form in which tobacco is used, and although many young men and boys have actually died from the effects of smoking them others ·will not take warning,

. hut will smoke on, regardless of consequences. But of all the forms of u~ing tobacco, that of chewing is

is the most disgusted. A glance at the tobacco-chewer is all that is necessary to disgust one; his features are distorted, his eyes dull and restless and his frame un­steady; tobacco juice on his lips and teeth, on his ;vhiskers or chin, and oftentimes his white shirt front is bespattered with it; he will spit in the most convenien~ place without any regard for his surroundings.

On the other h~nd, :>ee how· different is the man who has never chewed or smoked. His eyes are- bright and pleasant, his countenance placid and cheerful his frame steady, and, unless some disease has attacked him, he shows himself to be, what the Creator intended him to

• be, a perfect man. Physicians tell us that tobacco blunts the intellect,

and ckses loss of memory; that it deadens the moral sense and shatters the nervous system, that it vitiates the taste and creates a morbid · appetite for alcoholic drink, which statistics and experience show, is the great destroyer of mankind. In the face of the most reliable medical testimony there are countless number who will persist in using the vi le weed and since they will con­tinue to do so, it may be well for them to dwell on the last words of an ancient pagan philosopher: "Know thyself," that is endeavor to know what your constitu­tion is capable of bearing, and then consider whether the use of tobacco for you is beneficial or injurious.

-All Communications for the local columns are to be put in Paper Box at the dvvr of Bro. Bernard's office. Every body is invited to help, ye Joe Ed. by contribu­ting locaJ notes. -Lee Stafford, Will McGinnis and .T. McGrath had

a waiting match-waiting for toast game-Will got the prize. Lee won't be undone again, he practices a ten minutes fa st right along.

- As it is getting somewhat fresh we would rather exchange base ball for foot-ball. Might it not be a realized scheme to play a game with outside kickers as it is never hard after election to find kickers.

- On last Sunday Rev. Fr. Uarsile made us a touching appeal for the departed souls. He spoke of the efficacy· of our prayers and of the offering of our good works for the relief of the suffering i>Ouls of the just· He proposed us an easy and practical way of succoring them i. e. by offering during this month the merit of a closer observance of our rules, the immolation of our capricious wills by bending in all obedience to the voice of our Teachers aad Superiors and by many other ways ea rn almr, for the dead.

- During our late trip to Chicago we had 'the pleasure to visit the Holy Name S::;hool which we had so long wished to see. The turret-like chimnies and the coarse and blackened brickwork of the edifice give it the np­penrance of some old castle. Inside there ·prevails throughout the whole house a wholesome and homelike air. The corridors and class rooms arc spacious, a iry and well lighted. Each class-room is 20x25 ft , comfortably furnished and can accommodate some eighty pupils. The heating apparatus is adapted to the direct and iudirect system. The ventila.tion is the most perfect tbat has ever been put in operation.

Goiug the round of the classes we fo und in room N v T Rev. Bro. Dooling superintending a class of some seventy five minims. In No 2 Rev. Bro. Dandurand t eaches a goodly class. Mr. Donohoe teaches in No. 3, Mr. Gib­bons in No 5, Ed. Gallet the 4th class and in No G l\Ir. Solmi has the commercial class.

Everywbere we found the students orderly and applied, evid ences of wise direction and good clisciplinc. ·we were happy to notice among the gay troop the bright faces of our yonthfhl acquaintances, who seem to pre­serve n. hn.ppy re)llembrance of us-"\Ve fit iled to meet the beaming countenance of J ack O'Mally, of happy memory. It was "Saxon's" <lay off, he had skipped the boundary a.nd gone after more nmu ing pursuits than dry le sons only seasoned with an occasional game of touch-your-

toes! The s inging rehearsals as well as practice of the altar ceremonies take plaoe every evening. The .altar boys and members of the glee-club fldtbfully a5$emble in their meeting room every evening, and after night prayers at 8 0clock the house rings with the merry notes of silvery young voices. Our visit to the school was certainly a treat. We congratulate Rev. Fa.ther Mainville on his fine "educational palace'' and his well · drilled boys. We thank him also for the kindly welcome and the hearty and hospitable entertainment we received . from him. We shall not forget the place.

GOLD COI~.

Staying pow<;lr is one of the bes.t gifts a man can possess.

An ounce of anticipation in a friend makes the be­. stowal of a kindness doubly acceptable.

High privileges and great possessions nre great res­ponsibilities and high opportunities for doing some reasonable· amoun,t of good.

The face of a good man may reveal at all times his good heart, but, his disappointments and his cares, his wisdom carefully conceals.

Men at. thirty-five and forty make few or no friends; they p,re "satisfied with" a pleasant acquaintance.

CATHOLIC NOTES.

The Most Rev. Archbishop Feehan has purchased eighty acres of ground for a new Catholic cemetry near Chicago, Ills. It will be laid out and put in order for use at onee.

Rt. Rev. Bishop BalteR of Alton, Ills., has been ill, but we are happy to announce his com;alescence . and hope he may be soon restored to perfect health.

A cab]~ dispatch from Rome has announced the ap­pointment of the Rev. A. J. Glorieux, Ptesident of St. lHichn.el's CollE-ge, Portland, Oregon, as Vicar-Apostolic of Ictabo.

The Chri:stian Brothers h>we a new Superior General. A dispatch announces that Brother Joseph who was fourtll assistant to the late lamented Brother Irlide, has been chosen to succeed that distinguislled man.

Italy possesses thirteen plnces whose patron saints are Irish ;Belgium, 30 ;Scotland,76; German,152; France, . 47; England, 44; Iceland, .g; and the Isle of Ilan, 6. His­tory teRches us that one Irish monk was cause of send­ing Columbus on his voyage of discovery and another was the means of inspiring Dante with the idea of com­posing the "Divia Commedia" for Danto admits that he drew inspiration from a work of St. Fursey calleq the "Visions" written in the sixth century.

The Sisters of Providence of 401 St. Denis St. Mon­treal Canada, have completed a new addition to t.heir convent which is an institution for deaf-mutes. The good sisters have in charge about two hundred young girls to whom they devote their entire attention. The unfortunate poor girls are taught the branches most necessary for persons in their .situation, and they are

·not only taught to converse by means of signs, but they are also taught the improved method of communicating their ideas by what is termed "lip-reading." By this means they are enabled to make knowh their wishes simply by the. movements of the lips.

The Paulist Fathers of New .York who number among their members some of the most erudite men in Ameri­ca,. ate building a church which will have one of the most beautifnl and appropria,te domes ever thought of for any ecclesiastical building. It iH an exact imitation of the canopy of heaven as it appeared on the night of the dedication of the building to God's worship; the celestial map was planned from nature by a distinguish­ed astronomer, who is a member of the Order. Every star and cluster stars is in its own place silvery place in the overarching blue. Kepler of the future will have but to look at this unique dome to fix the precise date on which it was painted. The Paulists devoted much of their time to literary labor and deserve the credit of originating five-minute sermons for the early Mass on working days.

EXCHANGES.

No ·Journal possesses more of a refined classical taste than our namesake from Georgetown, D. C. It is always filled with the most interesting and instructive matter. "My ain Countree" a poem from the pen of Rev. A. Conynham in the last issue is as charming a thing as we have read for some time.

Umversity Monthly from Freclerickton. N. B. is glad­ly welcDmed this year. The monthly still continues to possess its idiomatic English qualities-which it mani­fested so thoroughly in the past. Poetical contributions are exceedingly numerous-some of them of no common merit.

We gladly place in our exchange list this week "La Propaganda Musical-" a monthly journal devoted to m);sical studies- musical composers-&c. Instrumental selections in the copy now before us are well worthy the yearly subscriptions price which is 50 cents.

The Blackburnicm of Blackbum University is a neat little paper manifesting no small share of literary abili­ty and business get-up. Our Illinois friend is always welcome.

The Academian from the hills of New Hamsphire makes its first annual appearence this week and as a visitor we greet it. We trust that there shall be an effort this year on the part of the directors to raise the stan­dard ofthe Academian.

The following that reached our sanctum are "The Sunbeam, Fortnightly Index, Notre Dame Scholastic, The University Magazii1e, The Literary Gem, The Fordham College Monthly, The Carson Index, The Delphic, The Adelphian, The Portfolio, College Index, The La Salles Times, The Connecticut Catholic, The Ave Maria, The Church Progress, La Revue Canadienne, The Peddie Institute, The Musical Record, L'Etenclard.
