Excerpt from America of to-Morrow Archbishop Ireland made me acquainted with Abb� F �lix Klein, then a Professor in the Catholic In stitute at Paris, and from that day the French capital has been to me another city. The French people can understand us, and sincere Catholics there can open their hearts to sincere Protestants. The gay, gentle, delicate, and refined scholar banters us cheerfully but he really likes us. He interprets for us the inner mo tives of the leaders of the ancient Church, and he be lieves that true religion thrives best in an atmosphere of political freedom. In outer form this prophecy of To-morrow appears to be a jest, a merry notebook of a holiday recreation; in essence it is an affectionate reve lation of a man's soul who believes in liberty and the triumph of truth; it is an interpretation of momentous events which are too near us to be seen in a true per spective. Here is one who is admitted to the evening councils of Paulist fathers, to the private offices of dis tinguished bishops, to the committee rooms of mission ary priests, and American Protestants are taught what immense plans are formed and steadily developed in action.
