THE EUCHARIST CONGRESS
IS OPENED IX LOIHDES
Lourdes, France, July ill—The
Eucharlatic congress of tho Catholic
church was formerly opened sit 3
o'clock this afternoon at tho famous
miraculous shrlno oI Our Lady of
Lourdes lu the presence of the most
representative International audi
ence ever assembled in tho tistory
of Catholicism.
Ten cardinals hi tho gorgeous
robes of their high office, occupied
places of honor on the rostrum,
while scattered through the audience
of 6,000 delegates were 200 arch
bishops aud bishops officially rep
resenting every leading catholic
country in the world. The United
States had for its representation
Cardinal Farley and fceveu ether
archbishops and bishops. France
naturally had the largest representa
tion in the persons of (ill- arch
bishops and bishops, while the
other leading count; ies were rep
resented as follows: -
Germany, 1; England, 1; Bul
garia, 1; Blegium, -1; Scotland, 2;
Spain, 7; Greece, 1; Hungary, 3;
Ireland, 2; Italy, 1C; Luxembourg,
1; Portugal, 4; Russia, 1; China,
3; East Indies, 2; India-China, 3;
the Antiles, 2; Brazil, S; Canada,
7; Chili, 1; Colombia, 11; Mexico, 1
Panama, 1; Paraguay, 3; Peru, 1;
Argentina, 1; Australia, 3; while a
dozen more smaller countries also
had present either a bishop .or
archbishop. In addition to these es
timates made early this morning
placed the number of delegates con
sisting largely of prints, prelates,
missionaries and Catholic seminary
students at nearly 6,000, represent
ing practically every country in the
world.
The congress which opened to
day is a continuation of the series
of Eucbaristic congress! s revived in
the early years of hit> pontificate by
Pope Pius X. Other congresses of
the series have already been held
during the past few vears at Madrid
Montreal. Vienna and last year
on the island of Malta, \oiio of
them, however, have in any way ap
proached in magnitude r.r interna
tional world-wide representation to
the present one.
Aside from its usual Kucharistie
features added importance was giv
en to the present congress by the
fact that it is also the t\yent\-fifth
anniversary of the shrire of Our
Lady of Lourdes. It was in 1SS!>
that the number oi nilgrims who
annually came to tho grotto here to
bo cured by the miraculous waters
becamc so great that ft was nec
essary for the church to take of
ficial cognizance and trect buildings
large enough to accommodate them.
It is the anniversary of this event
which has resulted in the number
cf pilgrims constantly increasing un
til they now average 500,000 a
year, that it is to bo celebrated in
connection with tho congresses.
Tho principal event of the form
al opening today of the congress
was the reading by Cardinal Gran
lto di Belmonte, the papal legate to
the congress, of the papal brief.
Cardinal Belmonte, who was chosen
for this high position was formerly
papal ambassador at the court of
the lata King' Edward of England.
In the brief entrusted to him to
read to the congress, Vope Pius e.\
1 ressed his conviction that the con
gress would pass down as the most
successful of any of these yet held,
and extended also a special blessing
and benediction oa all of tho6e
present. Pope Pius added that the
replica of the shrine cf Our Lady
of Lourdes, which WcS erected a
number of years ago in the Vatican
gardens at Rome, would hereafter
have a new significance for him.
Following the reading of the
brief and tho response on behalf of
the eplsopacy of Lourdes the form
al opening was adjourned for the
day.

CANCER A PUZZLE
In Many of Its Phases It Baffles
Medical Science.
ITS CAUSES ARE NOT KNOWN.
Neither Is It Revealed Whether the
Disease Is Hereditary or Not—In It*
First Stage It Is Curable—How the
Malignant Growths Spread.
"The word 'cancer,'" says World's
Work, "though it figures largely In
popular spoech, is used with less and
less frequency In medical literature.
There Is probably no word comprehen
sive enough to include all the kinds of
abnormal growths to which the human
frame is subject. Cancer is merely
oue shape in which this tendency to
malformation manifests itself.
"The human body in its ideal condi
tion is a symmetrical product. It con
sists of a multitude of parts, each de
veloping not only with reference to It
self. but in perfect harmony with the
rest of the organism. A subtle Influ
ence, known as the power of organiza
tion. regulates this highly important
matter. An arm, a leg, a nose, a chin—
any organ or member which one cares
to name—does not develop Independ
ently, but preserves important rela
tions with the rest of the body. Our
four fingers and thumbs have constant
ly in mind the rights of one another.
When one reaches a certain size it
does not keep on growing, but stops.
If it still went on a single finger would
reach a length of several feet In a life
time.
"Any observant person, However, is
aware that this law is constantly vio
lated. tin iilniost any part of the body
little Independent growths start into
existence. These are composed of mi
nute group* of rebellious cells, small
colonies which for some reason ignore
this law of development and start on
an independent existence of their own.
They serve no physiological purpose.
AVhen harmless, as they frequently
are. they are merely inconveulent
blemishes. When dangerous they end
by destroying life.
"MiUI manifestations of this lawless
tendency are the queer formations com
monly known as warts and moles.
There are other more noteworthy pro
tuberances, such as 'wens.' that grow
inexplicably, frequently upon thescalp,
reach a certain size, and then stop.
This latter growth belongs to the gen
eral class of tumors known as be
uign. They are benign simply because
after developing sluggishly to a certain
point their growth is mysteriously ar
rested. Between benign tumors and
the most malignant cancers thefe is
only this difference: That the latter
have the |«wver of unlimited growth.
"The true cancer, once started on its
riotous career, keeps on and digs deep
into healthy surrounding tissue and
destroys it, until finally, for a variety
of reasons, it kills the patient In some
cases a benign growth which has re
mained quiescent for years suddenly
develops a new vitality and becomes
malignant There are those who main
tain, though the occurrence is certain
ly rare, that a harmless wart may
sometimes develop into a genuine can
cer. The point to be brought in mind
is that all these abnormal growths are
related; that the only thing that makes
one malignant and another not is this
tendency to keep growing.
"A genuine cancer in its final stages
has another development. It no long
er confines its activity to the original
seat, but starts new cancers in other
parts of the body. Certain groups of
cancer cells break away from the pri
mnry headquarters, escape into the
blood stream and start new growths
elsewhere. This is the phenomenon
known as 'generalized cancer.'"
Millions of dollars have been devoted
to the study of cancer and its cure, and
every known scientist is wide awake to
the study of the disease and to grasp
hold of anything that may indicate a
possibility of its alleviation. The
points upon which the authorities on
cancer in this country agree, says the
New York World, are as follows:
First.—Cancer in its first stage is
| local ntid is curable.
Second.—The onuses ui caucu mc uv.
known.
Third.—It Is not known whether or
not cancer Is hereditary.
Fourth.—There is absolutely no cure
for cancer except to cut It out.
Fifth.—Go to a physician at the first
sign. of trouble. Freferably, be exam
ined by a physician at frequent Inter
vals anyhow.
Sixth.—The idea that cancer in plants
may give rise to cancer in man is fan
tastic. Tumors are not contagious.
Seventh.—Itadlum does not perma
nently cure internal cancer. It maj
check the growth, for awhile, but soon
er or later it comes back. Popular be
lief in radium is based on the fact that
only the occasional cures are heard
from—not the failures. The failures
outnumber the cures 100 to 1.
A Good Sign.

in Pompeii the workmen brought tc
