IMPRESSIVE CONGRESS OPJCV8. Valetta, Island of Malta, April 22. ?The formal opening ot the busi- dS5 hess session of the fourteenth International Eucharist conference here today was most impressive. Manager Heylen, bishop of Nomur, * and president of tho Perm In en t committee of the congress, celebrated the inauguyal mass in the Rotuddu ifusta, the third greatest cathedral __ iu^oie world." Considerable interest It attached to this assemblage of the Eucharistlc congress by virtue of the fact that it Is held in the historic Island where. It Is said, St. Paul, the A posit le on h's journey to Rome to be tried before Caesar was Shipwrecked with his Roman captors. Added * ^ 1 to this d Btinguishlng feature is another still moro Interesting, as It la more authentic. For it was in tho J island, of Malta that the Knights of St. John, said by some to bo the _ forerunners of the Knigfrta T^nrp- ? lers accomplished their greatest The city of Valetta, where tho congress is beipg held. Is named fohtbe grand master I-a Vallette, who In the last attempt of the Turks to capture the Island In 1565 saved tho city after a re ge of eight months and oruted the formidable enemy with a handful of men. Among the objects of Interest are the mortifications erected under La Valletta. Had it not been for these mortifies-* Itions and the valor ot the knightn lx? controlled .nav. by the Ottoman- m?t-t Fmpie.r Ilt was Napoleon, finally reduced the klnghts to condition for surrender. They rebelled and with the as stance of George III. _ of England cast out both the knights and the French in the year 1814. Valetta offers the traveller many interesting sights suggestive of Mai- ?_ ta's romantic past. Its civic and eccleBslastical history being almost in-< separable, the city naturally presents the spectacle of beautiful buildings. Conspicuous among these is the Church of St. John. In this cathedral the knights of every nation decorated their respective chapels and erected memorials to their grand masters. In the Governor's palace, once the palace of the grand masters, is a collection of war relics dating from the crusades. The council chamber la hung with Gobelin tapestries. A pub1 lie library founded in the last days of the knights' activities contains 80,000 volumes, many of which are rare. Here also is the cave where St. Paul and St. Luke are said to have lived _ now marked by a large church, still the principal shrine of the Maltese. In this church may be seen the celebrated Bysant'.ne portraits in stiver of St. Paul. The Maltese people boast that theirs it tut omy catnouc nation, ror there are no Maltest Protestant*.
