'tH~ vVIN1'EH. \::OUHSE of lectures is• to open soon. l::ievei'Hl gentlemen have bceh eng:1ged tto speak, while l"ll'rnngements Me bEii ng rn a de to secure o'thers. It st·ems oel·tai n that the lectures will be more frequent thi~ year than last. Let us 1-i:we th<,m-soon and often !

hy their able p1·esentation of the difficult drama Pizzm·o, otJ St. iatem·'s eve. All we regret is that we are allowed tu see thern only twice a year.

:a and G are deservedly becoming the attraction. They dl'&W whole lines of enthusiastic admirers every­where on their passage. The colleg~ campus 'Yould be dull indeed without their milit-'l.ry sWp and appear­an~ lfi(l those petfufmances ·which thE>y execute with a readiness and precision really wonderful. We applaud tbe b<'tys heartily and confess we are proud of them.

FULL ACCOUNT of all tlle doings on St. Viateu1·'s grand gala-day will be found in this issue.

• • * TliE NEXT FESTIVITIES are St. Cecilia for the

musicians, and Thanksgiving f<,r everybody.

* * * THE CECILIANS are preparing on a grand scale for the celebration of their patrones& St. Cecilia. They mean to pre.sent to music-lovers a menu of their choic­est selections, the creme de la creme of their repertory. With the talent we have and the musical enthusiasm lately awakened, we have reMon to anticipate the rarest treat that was ever served our musical ears.

• * *

WE FEEL CALLED UPON llere and now to be-stow a word of merited praise and encouragement on the orchestra. Every year this society loses some of its members, and often members who at·e not easilv re­placed. Tllis necessitates the assimilat.ing of new pl~y~rs. Happily the new can.didates this year are willing 11nd have the ability to do m11Ch. The whole troop, learl by Rev. F. Legris, have already acheived wonders, and we can but heartily congratulate both le.acter and players for the proficiency they have already att3.ined and the t..<tSty and difficult selections they have mastered. May we hear them long and often.

* * * CONSE<.lUE!'iT upon the late reorganizing of St.

Patrick',; Literary anti Debating Society, the readi ng · room has been opened with a goodly supply of choice

periodicals and weeklies. It is earnestly to be hoped that the members will remember the a.dvic.:-s given them relative to rearl ing -room etiquette; nnrl it i& by all mtans expected that they will be consist.ent enough to enforce the few wise ru les which it has seemed to them good to enact and approve.-Consistency is a jew. el. Appreciate it-stand by your own principles.

an address to the students that the present and coming • months are the best adapted for hard work, and he en-gaged all to avail themselves of the propiti?us season,

Father Behnger wn~ b01;n in the clioccse of Montreal, in 1835, and join e<l the co11gregation of St. Vi.ateur in Juliette, Cat1arla, in or abont 1854. l-Ie was sent to the Den.f and Dumb Institution n.s a director in 1855 , and i·emained there until 1883, when be went to Brirnfhitrl,

' Ill., for a rest ancl better climate. l-Ie was the first to introduce the oral method in Canada abont 1870:

He was a member of the Congress <> t Milan in 1880, where hundreds ofi nstructors of t he rl caf and dumb from nil parts of the worlrl m(;t to diseuss the ed uca­tional matters for the deaf. The pr iest established him­se l'f the workshops' oppos it~ the institution, also a big f.<trm so as to g ive the pupils means to e1.rn their living. He had been a General Procurator for his congregation for fuur years, until he left for the West.

"tn a moral anrl. religious seni!e," said Rev. Father Bebnger to a JouRNAL reporter, " deaf mutes are en­dowed with an intelligent and sensitive soul. They are as fit as others to receive aclvantageously moral and 'religious instruction. Those who live among Lhem, ob. serving tbeir lives and making it thei~; 13tudy for many long years, know that their hearts are acces5i ble to every varied sent iment."

Rev. Father Belanger will preach to Lhe Cat.holic

deaf mutes at St. Francis Xavier's Co~lege every Sun­day afternoon until a place of worship will be secured.

TH }<; SINGLE· HANDED MANUEL ALP~ABET

was originatect by the ,good Abbe Charles Michael de l':Ji;pee,. -aS ~ost useJ amongst deaf ID Utes in this COUntry .. _Abb~ de l'Ep.ee was a F rench priest, and the first person to take up the instruction of tlcaf mutes. T he

Abbe Sicarcl, who succeeded Abbe de l'Epee, was aiso a French priest and instru cted Dr. Thomas Hopkins Gallaudet, of St. Ann's Episcopal Ch nrch, at \Vest Eighteenth street, in the use of this alphabet. Dr. Gallaudet afterwards fuun(led the first school for the deaf a,nd dumb a hundrerl years ago, whi_ch "'was aided hy Laurent Clerc, a deaf m.ute. Dr. Gallauclet is call ed by 011r dl~af mutes the ''Pioneer of DeafMutes' , Educa­tion in America," and next December will be the one­hqndredth annivers~ry of the foundation of the first school for cleat and dumb in America, which was indors-

, ed by Laurent Clerc, a deaf mute sent by Abbe Sicard to this country in company with Dr, T. H. Gallaudet.

The fiTst man who appears to have interested him­self in the deaf tnute was Aristotle, 35,0 ye.ars before Ch.i·ist. After some fruitless endeavors this philosopher pronounced those b.eings deprived of all intellect, an d on that account incapable of receiving any instruction . This erroHeous opinion was maintained for several centuries, and the deaf mute n~main ed condemned to a life of ignorance, but to the last "century was reserved the honor of giving birtll to the genius . who was to make the deaf hear and the dumb sp~al{.

Charles Michaell'Epee was born at Versailles, F rance, :on November 24, 1712. He received in his fam ily a true Chistian education, which bore abundant fruit. After completing his studi'"s with remarkabl-e success, he la­bored f'or the salvation of souls many years. He then undertook the work of the intellectna,l and moral re­generation of deaf mutes. Here is a fact related by his disciple and successor, The Abbe Sicard :

''Two deaf-mute girls were living in their father's hou ~P in Paris, just opposite the house of the Brothers of t ile Christian schools. Father Farnin, of the Congre­gat ion of the Chtistian Doctrine, tried to instruct them and had obtained some success, when he d ied. Some tim e aft.er the Abb~ de l'Epee called at the house. T he mother being absent, the two young deaf-m ut('S received him with that interesting air which is pecul iar to youth, but in silence. The Abbe asks a fe w questions ; the g irl remain silent, absorbed in the ir work. He continues to speak; no answer. The Abbe is ignorant of their infirm­ity. The mother enters and everything is explained. The good priest mingles his tears with those of the un­happy mother and retires filled with the desire of fitting himself to replace the good Father Famin by restoring, if it Jay in hi5 power, speech and hearing to the young per~ons.

''The Abbe de l'Epee believing that tllese chi ldren would live and die in ignoranceoftheir religion if he Jid not try tQ teach them, he i'nvented that alphabet of the ban(l which nowadays is_ sprPad-all over -the world. No­ticing that the alphabet could not . entirely suffice to t.he exigencies of a tllorough instru ction. he in vent.ed 11.

Statue of De l'Epee. T he City of Vet·sailles, France, has a st,~t.ue of Abbe

de l' Epee on the ma.gniticAnt pleasme grounds which were created by Louis XIV. Another statue of Abbe de 1' Epee was crecte1i in the garden of the Paris Deaf and Dumb Insti tution on May 24, 1879. It was madA filld presented to the institution by the famous French deaf-mute sculptor Mons . .Martin. The ped'estal is a. dorned wi th thrc.e bronze bas-reliefs. It represents Abbe de l' Epee in his cassock teaching a litt le \leaf boy the word " Dieu" (God). The sacred name is · i n~>crib­

ed on a t ablet whieh be bold!' in his left han u, as its dactylologic t•epresentation is depicted . W llile his right hand makes the initial letter " D," his eyes are bent upon the little deaf boy standing by !lim,· who gazes intently at the inscriptivn as he is t ry ing to imitate the fingers.

ST. VIAT EUR'S DAY

St. Viateur's Day is no more, but its memory will ever remain engraved in the hearts of the stu dents of 87 -88. Numerous visitors and many parents of the stu­dents helped torender thecelebrat.ion achoice and hAppy one. T he r eligious portion ot the day was most edify­ingly observed , many young hearts being t he happy re­cipients of their God in holy Communion on tha t au­spiCIOUS morning. oltlmn High Mass was attended in the p>tris!:. Chmch of t he Matern ity and Rev. Father Francis O' Rielly , ' 81. preached the sermon of the day.

Rev. Father Cyrille Foumier, C. S. V., Superior, of­ficiated, assisted by Rev. F ttther Choninn.rd , C. S . V., Deacon, a n<'l Rev. Stanislaus Nawroeki , Sub-deacon. The tasty decorations of the main altar, the music an<'l the singing, rendered the ceremony most solem n and impressive. The games, the races, etc .. were carrie<'l on with as much mir th and boisterousness as the chilly wind would allow. The campus was the scene of a most eharming t reat in the nfteruvon owing to the splendid performances of our three millitary compnnies ai<'led by the visiting company H vf Kn.nkakee City, a body of most able maueuvrers.

We must not forget the dinner, which was indeed a sumpt nous one and one to which all p>: esent did ample honor. T he refectory !Jad been adorn ed with flowers and good cheer reigned supreme du ring the entire hour. To close the exercises of the day an improvised pro­gramme was executed in the evening at which · the premiums won d ur ing the ga.mes were awarde<'l to the h!].ppy victors. Rev. F ather Fournier, C. S. V., closed the family like entertainment by wise words of encour­agement, evincing his paternal solicitude for the wei-

fare of t he students of St . Viateur's. He w:a.s listened to with perfect attention and it is to be hoped ·tht his counsels will germina te and fruct ify in t be b.ea.rts of .all who beard him.

W e subjoin the list of uan;~es Qf the ~tudents wbo distinguished themselves at the games and races and the prem inms they merited f0r their ability. We also g ive below the programme of the entertajp i,ue.t;lt held as usual, on t he eve of St . Via teur's day by the 'l'hts­pians, the Cecilia.ns and the "Club Moliere" combined. The great feature of the evening: was the well-known tragedy o f Sher idan ehtitled -'Pizz~tro." The ,play abounds in st irring situations and noble sei?timents, ae well as in meannesses of the most' horrid nature. T he bound less ambition and insatiable desire .!>f veugeli\.nee of the Spanish leader is thrown in tenible contrast with the supremely magnanimous deeds of Rolla, the P eruvian Cbiet'tain. In a word, the play is v,ery difficult to render and w<~ must ackuowledge that the Thespians deserve pmise for the mannet· in which they executed it . The costumes were very niuely se l£:cted and gave a splendid appearance of reality to the different characters they were intended to represent. The French DLrcc, "Le Sourd," drew many plaudits and numerous bursts of laughter from the audience, which should be encourage­ment to the mem':>ers of the " Club Moliere," who:>e ambition is to treat us once in a while to " bits" of Pari.,ian humor. In the singing and music, Prof. E . J. Bourget, shone with aJvantage. W e congratulate him on his first appearance before O llf fri ends who composed the numerous audience of the evening.

MUNICH.

M tinich, célèbre pour sa science et sa bière offl·e au ~

jounl'~ui une ,popuh1.tion d'environ 250,000 âmes. Cet­te ville est bi tuée pour 1:1 plus grande partie sur la rive gauche de l'Iser qui la parcourt du Sud-Ouest au Nord­Est e11 formant une légè~·e courbe inclinée vers l'Est Dans cette courbe se trouvent deux îles qui renferment, l'une de l'artillerie et l'autre une fabrique de spiritu E: ux:

de sorte que l'on peut S1échaujfer dans rune et s'anne·r dans l'autt·e ! C'est très-commode, comme vous voyez--(Ces îles communiquent par un chemin appa­remntent trop étroit pou1· convenir que les deux îles n1enjont qu'une!) A proportion de la distance des ri­ves, l' l ser a pen d'eau en certains endroits surtout. Une partie de cette rivière est g-arnie de petites c!::.aussées en pierre qui retiennent la for.;e du courant et conserve l'eau probab lE-ment rour les fabriques. Le coup d'œi l que forment ces T10mbreuses cascades est des plus en­chanteurs. On dirait autant de bains qu'il y a d 'espa­ces ~ ntre les chaussée:;. L'01: est souvent smpris, en visitant · les parties de ln vil1e qui longent l' l ser, de voir ltne petite rivière ou un canal s'onvrir ·brusque ­ment à droite ou à gauche, comme à la place du théâtre de l'Iser, par exemple. Ces ruisseaux serpentent aussi de mille m~nières à travers le parc, ce qui ne contribue pns peu à sou embellissement.

Maintenaut, si l'on considère la ville entière, à l'instar de lrt plnpart des vieilles villes, son milieu présente un ré~eau de rues tortueuses d ifficile à comprendre. Le ~eul moyen de s'orienter est de prendre la Cathédrale pour point central ; la porte appelée Sisgesthor pour le Nord , et la Stati0n centrale pour l'Ouest. Au Nord sont placées l'Universite et l'Academie des arts . Du côté du N-Est, sur la rivi ère, est situé le parc appelé Engl2:s­chee Gasten à raison de sa forme. C'est un point de res­semhlauee avec ]ft posiô ion du Lincoln ParkdeChi cago. An N-Oues1: sont les cascmes, la pillee d'ar tillerie, des remises d'armes, brJutiques et tout ce que vous voudrez <1e militaire y 'compris un hopital. A l'Ouest, près cl u chemin de fer, e.-;t le c..: ham p de lVhrs. An Sud se trou­vent deux grands eimetières, et. plus au Sud encore le Marché avec an imnux et abattoirs. Cà et là sont se­més, C'>mme ailleurs, des couvents, des casernes et nom­brR fl'habitations de tous genref..

Les gens de Munich ont m~ goût particulier pour ln ci rconférence. P as moins de six places publiques ont cette forme ; deux sont en demi cercle ('t une ovale. En plusieurs endroits; les rues se rejoignen t à un petit rond

·on à une demi lune. Je ne vois de carrées que la place des CapuCÎI'lS et celle de l'Université. Les au tres, pour la plupart anciennes, ont des formes irrégulières. Il n'y a pas jusqu'au Dôme qui prêche la rondeur, en terminant ses l-ours en form e de radis, et un vieux cim eti r~re clont. Je

Les fils revivent dans leurs pères; les générations sne­cèdent aux g\~n érat ions; le génie lègue en expirant une id ée immortell e, et l'Histoire voit se renouveler à cha­que siècle le prodige du Phœnix de la Fable.

L'hirondelle e.st partie, mais elle reviendra avec le printemps; nos morts ont trouvé dans le tombeau des ailes d'ange; la foi a pris racine dans le sang <les martyrs; le sacrifice a enfan~é des merveilles.

After company H came the St. Viateur's boys. There a:re three C<·lilpanies of these, and we will not attempt to discriminate only to the one company.

There is one compauy of "little bit.s of fp,Jlows." tha

1'7ere the "cutes t" looking little soldiers that we ever saw, and they had full uniforms on too, and g uns an<i a ca p­tain and did just as ·well ns b ig people could have done.

Bu.t the older companies! Well , now you are going . to bear somethh1g. Those boys have only been dri lling about two months, or perhaps a little less, and it makes the heart of an old soldier swell with recollections of "things that were" when they come and step off to the t.a.p of the drum. It is wonderfu l to see the proficiency these boys have attained, from lea<>t to gt·eatest in the short time they have been under training.

We saw in the College building looking over the exercises on the parade grounct fi:om t lw. windows a a number of ladies from this cit.y among whom we recognized the following :

!Hrs. Tru e Holing. 1\lt·s. ' Andrew Kerr. Mre. Senator Wheele1·. Mrs. F. D. Hatch. Mrs. Fred Whitmore. Mrs .T. W. Roney. On the parade ground were to be seen many Jn,Jies

and g-entlemen from here among whom we noticed the following:

Mr. and Mrs. H. A. Pike. Mrs. P. Sauasack a11d son. Andrt>w Kerr, W . A. McGi llis. L. H.obinson, C. P . Townsend, and many others

whose names we did not learn. F a. ther Mn. rsile and Fa.ther Ri vartl very kind ly enter­

ta ined a party consisting of Mrs. F. D. Hatch, Mrs. F red. Whitmore :tnrl Mrs .• J. W. Roney and two m· three gentlemen who joine<l the party, with a trip through the entire uui lding, going thi'Ough all the rooms in thei t• order, not :.;m i tt.ing e\·en the large ~ l ee ping room of the b .>ys on tile upper floor, These rooms with their dozeus of nicely made up sing le heds, as clean and neat as cou ld be, were the adm iration of the ladies . . It is im_ possible for a person to imagine anything neater, clean_ ert'r hea lthier looking than these apartm ents are. The sun light and free a ir of heaven bas free acces:3 on bo th side8 and a number of stairways furniahiug easy access nnd abundant means of egress.

After the party had been showu through all that was interesting, tlley were t:Lk'3 n to l"7th er l\Ia.r:lile's pri vate office where they _were j oined by Dr. Bergeron anu1

, •

l>rill Master Dore and fruit in abundance served. When· all had partaken to their &'l.tisfaction there w.as ~ gen'e~a l o-ood evening ~poken and all departed to tb~ i i· respect- . t) , . ;~ I

ive homes. · . . The Masters Kerr and Wheeler, o(this ci ty, were '

quite an attraction to the visitors from here, and seem- · ed to enjoy seei ng their frier~ds very much. ·.,
