Eucharist Pilgrims Stoned Belfast, Northern Ireland—Appar- ent anti-Catholic temper flared into rioutous conditions in four cities of Northern Ireland today as Catholic pilgrims were departing for the Eu- charistic Congress at Dublin. Clashes occurred at Belfast, Bally- mena, Larne and Coleraine. Scores were injured, a few seriously, before the pilgrims started their excursions, The Bishop of Down and Connor sent a telegram to Sir Dawson Bates Northern Ireland's Minister for Home Affairs, demanding protection for the pilgrims on their return jour- ney. The worst outburst occurred at Bayymena, where a mob was on hand as hundred of pilgrims gather- ed at the railway station to board the trains. A fight developed and as it progressed it became evident the pilgrims were being worsted, and the police succeeded only in confining the ill-tempered crowd to the oppo- site side of the roadway, where stones and bottles could still be hurl- ed at the pilgrims. Mefore the of- ficers took a handn, however, sever- al pilgrims were beaten and kicked. Some women were thrown down, their hats pulled off, their umbrellas broken, and their basket luncheons taken from them. Many girls among the pilgrims became hysterical. Oth- ers wept, and still . others knelt in prayer. As the train left the ,station large stones bumped off the carriage roofs broke windows and littered the cor- ridors with broken glass. Before the attack occurred a crowd of Orange- men paraded through the principal streets of the town singing party songs.

Place.—The capital of Egypt, per- haps Memphis, perhaps Tanis. THE PRESERVATION OF MOSES, And there went a man of the house of Levi. Levi was the third son of Jaeob and Leah. An took to wife a daughter of 1,evi. Her name means "Jehovah is glorious." And the woman conceived, and bare a son. Thus simply, after its custom, does the Bible record the birth of this great man; but Joseph - tie relates that prophet frightened Pharaoh by announcing the birth of one who was destined to inflict great harm on his kingdom ,and also that the wonderful destiny of the earning boy WaS foretold to Arnram in a vis- ion, And when she saw him that he was a goodly child, Stephen, in his famous address, called him "exceed- ing fair" or "fair unto God" (Acts 7;20). "Perhaps Jochebed would have done the same had Moses been ill-favored, for mothers have often loved best theii weakest and. sickli- est; but still it naturally seemed, to her the harder that she was called upon to lose a strong and beautiful baby," And. when she could not longer hide hirn, His baby outcries would grow ever louder and make it snore difficult to conceal his presence, She took for him an ark of bulleushes, and daubed it with slime and with pitch. The bitumen with which the basket was made watertight was as- phalt brought perhaps from the Dead Sea. And she put the child there- in, and laid it in the flags by the river's brink. By "flags" is meant the mass of vegetation, lower than papyrus, which grew on the edge of the ,river—reed grass, sedges, iris and so on. And his sister stood afar off, to know what would be done to hirn. Bright-eyed Miriam was posted in some hiding -place, to see what fate would befall her dear little baby bro- ther. THE ADOPTION OF MOSES. And the daughter of Pharaoh came down to bathe at the river. Doubtless Jochebed knew the habits of the princess, knew the hour when she was accustomed to bathe, and -0-eert her baby in the princess' ba- thing -place as a silent appeal to her womanly heart. And her maidens walked along by the riverside, They served as a guard against intrusion. And she saw the ark among the flags, and sent her handmaid to fetch it. This was her special at- tendant, the chief of the maidens. And she opened it, ,and saw the chilth and, behold, the babe wept. The infant did just what was most patheticall'Y certain to '''rdove the ten- der heart of the princess. And she had compassion on him. Pity is one of .the divine attributes. And said, This is orte of the Habrew's child- ren, The princess knew the child to be one of the race doomed to extinc- tion by her hard-hearted father, She was a brave womaa to risk the wrath of that implacable monarch, but her compassion made her cour- ageous. Then said his sister to Pharaoh's daughter: Shall I go and call •thee a nurse of the Hebrew women, that she may nurse the child for thee? The princess had said that the child was a Hebrew; very well, then he would need a Hebrew nurse, And Pharaoh's daughter said to her, Go. Very likely she saw through the loving stratagem at once, and heartily concurred in it.. She was •evidently not of one mind with her cruel father. And the maiden went and called the child's Mother. "Joch- ebed had. not long been home when Miriam burst ;into the house, too wild and agitated to tell all the hap- py tale, but bidding her mother haste and come. ss, THE EDUCATION OF MOSES And Pharaoh's daughter said unto her. Take this child away, and nurse it for me, and I will give thee thy wages, How gladly would joehebed if site had had the wealth, have giv- en unstinted suite to have had the care of her baby! .And now she in to be paid for nursing him, And the woman took the child, and, ners- ed it. "How little Pharaoh's daugh- ter knew of what she was doing!" And the child grew, and she brought him unto Pharaoh's clangh- ter, and he became her son, Doubt- less the princess had often visited the boy as he was in his mother's halite, and a deep affection had, been formed between the two. And she called his name Moses, and said, Be- cause I drew him out of the water. "Moses" in Hebrew is Mositeh and the Hebrew verb mashah means "to draw out", hence the play on words is most plausible. At which season Moses was born. The "season" was the tirne when Pharaoh had decreed the death of the male babies of the 'Hebrews. And was exceeding fair. Moses is introduced as one of the long list of instances of Hebrew ingratitude to their deliverers, culminating in the crucifixion of the Messiah. And he was nourished. three months in his father's house. Doubtless after the baby reached the Princess' palace the family of Moses were allowed fre- quent access to hirn and he was per- mitted to visit them. His •later life shows how thoroughly he was indoca trinated in Hebrew rather than Egyptian religious ideas. And 'when he, was cast out. Ex- posed in the nile. Pharaoh's clarigh- ter took him up. Lifted him °tit of the water, and virtually adopted him. 110044 At spread before him was the great city . . he had been yaround it many times . this 16 -year-old boy—ignorant, unschooled, but withall a sturdy tugboat barge hand . . .
