Annual Celebration and Distribution Of
Premiums.
The annual celebration of the large and
fourishing sunday-school attached to st.
Patrcks Catholic Church took place yester-
day afternoon, and was closed by the distrl-
button OF large number OF premiums. The
attendance was unusually large, 1t being next
to Impossible to obtain standing room. The
exercises were conducted by the Rev. John
Moore, D. D., pastor of the church, assisted
by ths Rev. C. B. Northrop and Mr.. j. 7.
Kanapaux, superintendent of the school.
Several hymns were sung by the chll@ren and
their teachers at regular intervals, and added
much to the pleasure of the occasion.
The report of Superintendent Kanapaux
showed that the school was In q satisfactory
and fourlshing condition. The total number
OF pupils was four hundred and eighty-seven,
and the number of the officers and teachers
fity-two, making grand total of five hum
dred and thlrty.nine. The average attend
ance during the year was large, and much
better than during the previous year. The
report also commented favorably on the con.
duct and proficiency Of the pupils, and gave
great praise to the teachers for their zeal and
activity. The collections for the school dur
Ing the year, besides furnishing a melodeoa
and paying q large part OF the cost OF The
school library, were almost sufficient to liqnl.
date the current expenses of the school, and
the superintendent had reason 10 hope that
oy the end of the next year the entire debt
OF the school would be paid of. The children
were represented as thoroughly Interested In
the library, but 1t was desirable that the
parents oil the children should subscribe more
generally to the library than they had pre-
viously done.
The fret step 10 the distribution of pre-
mums was the drawing for the silver prize
medals provided for the pupils mort proficient
In the catechiem prepared by Bishop England.
