New Catholic Church.
The opening of St. Francis Xnvler'scburch
dcmniuls more tlmn n passing notice , for It
marks nn Important period In the history of
a jrreat religious organization , ll represents
the icsults of many years of effort and is the
realization of the hopps which have been the
Inciting motive of these yearn anil effort.
Nineteen years ago Hev. B. 1 * . McMcnomy
was appointed to the Catholic parish of
Council Bluffs. Ihls was his fourth pastor
ate. The parish was then constituted of
about sovTiity families , having been built up
by the Jesuit fathers. The possessions were
then located In fourteen acres , ( what Is How
the Clausen property ) and a small church
building on Pearl street. As the parish
prow this church was enlarged , and until now
it has served as the place of worshop
for a great church orgnnbatlon. During the
earlier years Father McManomy had charges
of ten counties \vcstcrn Iowa. With two
or three exceptions ho buildeil till the
churches on the Chicago , Burlington &
Quincy road in the state. Ho has baptised
4,000 persons nnd seen his own pariah grow
from that very snuill beginning to one of SOU
families , or nbout two thousand souls. This
number docs not embrace the seventy or
more families who have split oft from the
original body and now constitute the German
Catholic church. During the earlier years
the church ha no schools , and but indifferent
accessories for prosecution of its labors.
The society now has two schools , an Institu
tion doing good hospital work ( which has
good prospects of owning the buildings they
now occupy ) and the elegant cdillco which
was yesterday opened for use. Whatever
may bo said of Its liberality unit progressive-
tiess in religious thought , this can bo said In
praise of the Catholic society. In material In
terests and Investments for advancing the in
terests of its religion and philanthropy
it stands at the very head among the
irganlzatlons of the city. Of late years the
.ruuous . labors before performed by Father
iIcMcnomy have told upon him , affecting his
ihysical condition and somewhat Impairing
ils activity , especially in pulpit nnd parish
vork. Fur nearly four years ho has been
.ssistcd by Father Haley , who has proved an
, blo man and won a popular place in the
icarts of his people. Now the health of the
icnior priest has so Improved that ho will bo
; blc to enter his work with greater activity
nd effectiveness. For soinu time past there
jas been a feeling throughout the state that
, ho northwestern portion should bo set apart
md a separate diocese created embracing
, his territory. This feeling , which Is born
argely of the liecessitics which inheres in
he organization of church work , Is so strong
hat without doubt a division will be made ,
n this event doubtless the scat of the bish-
iprie will bo here and Father Me. , as cvery-
me delights to c.ill him , will be the resident
lialiop.
St. Francis Xavier's church was duly
pencil ycstci day and with most imposing-
leremonies. The structure was not dcdi-
'ated ' , as this ritualistic solcmni/ation is 1m-
lossible when the structures is incmnbered
j.V debt. It is mores than probables that when
ho dedication occurs it will bo as a cathe-
ral.
During the early hours of the morning vis-
.ors from the rural districts , and from
ibroad , arrived in large numbers , and when
, he time arrived for the beginning e > f the cx-
jrciscs there were fully live thousand people
ilong the line of inarch. At 10 o'clock the
ino formed upon Pearl street \Villow avc-
luo and proceeded in the following order :
Jand of the A. O. H. of Omaha , the Omaha
ilivision of the A. O. H. ; the Dun-
Jap division of the same and the local division ;
Fifth Ucgimont band chorus for tflu
day the children from the Catholic
ichools with teachers ; the children's
iodulity ; the children of Alary ; the German
Catholic society ; Mayor Itohrer ; St. Francis
iociety : members of the church and atten
dant visitors. While the procession was
forming the sacred vessels of the sacrament
ivero taken from their former repository in
ihe old church , and with due ceremony berne
by the clergy without the walls. Hero they
were covered by n beautiful new canopy ,
made of white and cherry colored silk , beau
tifully fringed and inscribed with gold bull
ion. The cauopy was berne by Messrs.
Sharlcs Paschal , Henry Paschal , J. F. Mul-
: uiccn and T. B. Hughes. The priestly cortege
ege was constituted of five boys bearing the
emblems of the altar and twenty flower girls
dressed in white and wearing beautiful gar
lands of llowers. Each bore a basket of cut
flowers and the path to the church was
strewed with these emblems of beauty and
isurity.
Arriving at the church , that stiucturo was
soon filled to its utmost capacity. Probably
1,200 persons found scats and crowded the
aisles , vestibule and gallery. After the con
secration of the vestments of the altar ana
the robing of the bishop pontifical hign mass
was sung by Bishop Bonucum , of Lincoln ,
Neb. Father Zlglcr , of St. Louis , acted as
arch-priest , Father Haley as deacon , and
Father Adolph as sub-deacon. Father
Dowling , president of Criechton college ,
acted as master of ceremonies. Hayden's
third mass in D was rendered by the
choruses , and in a manner most creditable.
The solos were rendered by Mrs. M. J.
O'Nicl , Mrs. A. Dai-rough , Mrs. F. Dillon ,
Mrs. J. P. Murphy pnd J. B. Doyle. Mr. J.
Schenck , of Dayton , O. , acted as director.
Hov. Dr. Phelan , of St. Louis , delivered a
very able and interesting discourse , selecting
as his subject : "Why are not all Catholics ! "
After a brief introduction , ho said : "I do
not wish to speak of the stagnation among
protcstunt Christians. In twcnty-flv.o years ,
with resistless outward rush , they completed
the conquest of the Germanic world. Then
they relupsea into inactivity nnd remained
o for ! WO years. They absolutely did noth
ing , We Catholics can readily understand
the rapid rise and equally sudden subsidence
of protcstant labor and result. Wo can
understand the great , the sudden uplift. We
understand it was but n symptom of disorder
in ecclesiastical circles. What astounds us
In considering the matter is that the great
Catholic church did nothing to offset this
activity. With the rare attractions which
win alfhands and subjugate all hearts it
stood iuly by. That which was at first the
mighty church , which won nations in a day ,
was seized with inactivity. It cannot be
that It was decay. In one province of the
world the church IB great. In Italy , Franco
ana Spain she makes no progress. In
England , Germany and America she
exhibits bomo of her wonted vitality , butovcn
hero how halting Is her step and how short
Is her arm in comparison with the majesty of
her fotmcr mien and the sinewy strength
which raised up nations to the glory of our
God and his Chrlbt. In these- days a whole
nation was converted In the life of a slnglo
apostle. Hero in the nineteenth century we
behold the spectacle of ono half tha worlO
lying In a state of unconvcrslon , These na
tlons Imvo no formalized opposition to the
church and yet she * docs not. gain , Let us
seek for an explanation , not only inside bir
outside the church , Ono favorite explanation
IB that every nation selects that religion that
is best suited to its own peculiar demands.
Another Is that different ages demand and
create different religions , L t tills bo as it
may , there are thinking Catholics who find
this question of Catholic stagnation a puzzle.
There Is a popular idea that the people
ple are opposed to couvoislon , but
thcro Is little evidence to prove the
fact. * * There are occasional , evi
dences of change of religious thought. Hut
see what the church was. In apostolic days
ono servant of Christ baptised 8,000 and an
other 5,000. Whola nations were brought to
Christ , But thers U a cause for this inac
tivity , and we will find it , not in the gospel ,
but in the nature of the paopln where we
preach it. The refusal of the people to hear
the { oapel as wo preach it U avMsnce of
aiwiUcy from God. The vrorldhas co pleas
ure in God. The cluirch finds thtt rtinlculty
thkt tUo apostle * never had. They had sim
ply to ooirect erronei-u * Ideta concerning
Clod td the pUa of saUatloii , while wo have

et. t. ic iu ! x ! t ncof ( ] fled , Tlioy < JU nut

pi'fichod tbo word , the people hiMni , < :
ccpted tLu cetiinuobi stud leapt J Witt Joj
, rtat they could bo mndo partakers ( a tbo
ricsscdrtcss of salvation. The world to-day
h&n parted company with natural'
cllgion. Wo have lost our faith
n the supernatural , that upon
which the world Is built. Take away the
supernatural and the church rests upon noth-
ng , but belief in the supernatural is our
ground of faith , the foundation of all truth.
The world Is not disposed to listen to truth If
that truth is not agreeable. The world of
out day studies. Wo arc great students.
Wo have as many scholars as there were
men in the world in the days of the apostles.
Wo have millions of men who pursue every
avenue of scientific speculation. Where
there was ono In the olden time there arc
now 10,000. That wo arc deep student * is
evidenced by the branches taught and
studied. The paradox uttered by St. John Is
almost literally fulfilled. "Tho world is full
ot books , " nnd they arc good books , too , cov
ering every line of science , literature and
art , and though the people study nnd write
nnd teach , always learning , yet they MO
coming no nearer to the knowledge of the
truth. Why Is the Inlletcltty ot this ago so
slupglshl It has not developed n point in
three hundred years. It teache < v the same
antagonism to God and truth that Payne
taught.
The scientific world has no reverence for
truth. It treats it as a servant , not as n
master. There Is no loyalty In the world.
It stands In Inactivity when It might nnd
ought to embrace nnduo saved. Truth be
gets truth , nnd truth bus n divine light that
dominates the intellect and Illumines the
soul. The modern , scientific world Is slug
gish. It knows there can bo no effect with
out n cause ; no design , without n designer ;
no building without n builder , and , vet , know-
Inc all that , they refuse to acknowledge the
truth that the world owes Its existence to nn
Intelligent Creator. They Hud in their own
licarts a lack of gratification which can only
come from nn intelligent God , nnd without
this knowledge the mysteries of thq human
.heart arc uusolvablc. Such a position ns this
supposes the author of all things to bo a
moiihtcr , which involves a'solf contradiction.
They say they live for nnd have thp approval
of conscience. That tribunal for whose ex
istence wo arc in no way responsible ; which
is always In session ; which has no vacation ,
nnd whoso last cdiet.shall bo that the sbul
shall vacate its house of clay. Infidels take
refuge in the irresponsibility of human na
ture. They ask us : What Is truth I They
toll you it is u senseless abstraction. Why
you might as well ask what , is.touch or small.
Truth is the atmosphere in 'which ' the soul
lives. It is just as essential to the life of the
soul as air is to the life of the body. The
man who asks this question through life has
parted company with his better self. The
speaker criticised severely the position of
the prominent scientists upon this question.
He said the reason why the great masses of
men embrace protcstaut religions instead of
the Catholic faith , which ho said was the
only "true faith , " was because it was easier.
In a protcstant church ono could practice
things which would not bo admlssablo in the
Catholic church. Ho characterized the
practice of divorce as condcmnnble. Ho
said : "All protcstants are in heresy
and schism. Wo have the gospel of Jesus
Christ. They have not. Our religion is a
divine institution. Thcir's is a human pro
duct. Wo preach it on the corners of the
street ; write it , speak it nnd teach It , and yet
thcro is no advance. Protestants nro good
rcasoners. They have accepted , without
question , certain postulates that have comedown
down to them. The world Is full of claptrap.
Thcso principles have como down to them
from the sixteenth century. They have
never examined them , if they did they
would find them to be as base ns wo know
them to be. They talk about liberty of
thought and conscience. Can you put chains
upon your thought and bind it to do your
will ? You may commit wrong by thought ,
though you pivoit no utterance. No man has
the right to think wrong of mo. It is absurd
to say that men may think what they please ,
and it is just as absurd to say n man may say
what he pleases. If Christ has established a
church to bo a tribunal it is not a human
affair. If Ho placed it in the Catholic cjiurch
it is there and it cannot como from anywhere
else , and wo do wrong to think so. If a
Protestant don't like ono church ho takes an
other , and feels gratified by making the
change , and ho never inquires whether that
church is God's church or not. This is the
fatal blunder that mars all the reasoning of
our reasoning powers. Men must come to
know that they cannot obey God nnd join the
church that suits them best , but the true
church. To bo a Catholic ono is obliged to
attend church , to pay debts , to attend confes
sion at least once a year , to bo con
tent with ono wife and that means
a good deal. An unpractical Catholic
is a good protcstant , and a practical
Protestant is a bad Catholic. A man may bo
n good Protestant and do the things which n
Catholic cannot do. That is the reason why
Protestants do not become Catholics. "

tion was tancn to apply on the church debt.
