where nature has made a site for a

The Forty Hours Alteration Of the

Yesterday at high mass was celebrated at this
church one Of the most impressive ceremonies OF
the catholic religion the exposition Of the Blessed
Host The interest excited by this solemn event,
which takes place annually at st. AIMS, was
evinced by the largely Increased congregation that
filled nave, aisles and galleries. The three affairs
were literally radiant with myriad lights, and al
most buried beneath the floral treasures poured
upon them by the liberal pety OF the parishoners.
Rev. Father Preston ofiiciated as celebrant at high
mass, Rev. Father Poole as deacon and Rev. Father
Lynch as subdeacon. The choir, under the direc-

and sub-deacon. The ceremonies were gorgeous,
grand and imposing the altar being aDlaze with o

acolytes who, with lighted tapers, moved In

celebration.
THE MUSIC,
which was arranged and rendered under the direc-
