The archiepiscopal residence, on north
Charles street, was visited on Saturday and
Yesterday by thousands OF persons desiring
to take last look upon the mortal remains
of the late Archbishop Bayley as they lie in
| state in the west paror. The throng du-
ring the entire day yesterday was very
great. About ten thousand persons were
admitted on Friday and Saturday, and yes
terday the number was estimated at twen-
ty-fivc thousand At one time the
sidewalks, and even the street itself,
were almost blocked up with people
waiting an opportunity to be admitted.
Last night an hour before the doors were
closed there was line OF people reaching
from the corner OF Cathedral and Mulberry
streets to the residence-door, waiting their
turn. Persons OF all classes, including many
who were not members OF the Catholic
Church, were in the throng. The children
OF the various Catholic orphan asylums
were admitted during the earlier part OF the
day. Large delegations OF gentlemen from
the various Catholic societies have been in
attendance at the residence, directing visit
ors the way through the house and serving
as a guard of honor to the remains. They
were assisted by detachment OF the city
police under Captain Lannan and Sergeant
Droste. The very best order has prevailed,
and Notwithstanding the great crowd yes.
terlay, amongst which were many ladies
and children, there were no accidents nor
unpleasant incidents.
RMBLEMs OF SORROW.
o1I ha Fofhnlso
churches, orphan asylums, and other Catho-
lie institutions in the city, have been draped
in mourning. The Cathedral, which, with
the archiepiscopal residence, was the prin-
cipal point OF interest to Catholics during
the day, was heavily draped in the emblems
OF sorrow The large fluted columns OF the
western portico, on Cathedral street, and
the interior OF the building were draped
The choir and galleries were festooned, and
the episcopal throne and chair lately occu.
pied by the deceased Archbishop were en-.
tirelv covered with black. To-day the altar
and other portions OF the interior OF the
building will also be covered with the EN-.
blcms OF mourning.
CATHOLIC SERVICES YESTERDAY.
The services yesterday at the Cathedral
and at the other Catholic churches were
such as are usual on Sunday. In nearly all
OF them allusion was made to the demise OF
the Archbishop, and remarks were made
expressive Of the general sorrow over the
event. The services at the Cathedral were
largely attended, and at II O'Clock many
could not obtain seats. Rev. Alfred A.
Curtis, secretary to the late Archbishop,
preached, taking his text from the Episte
of the morning, including the Injunction OF
st. Paul to "Giye thanks always for all
things" He said bereavements were often
occasions OF thankfulnesS. when rightly
viewed, because they taught that we were
mortal, and that we should value and iul-
prove other blessings. They felt deeply the
loss OF their best friend, the late Arch
bishop, and yet should be thankful that they
had had such friend, and he grateful for
the example lie had left them.
