Taking the White Veil.

Interesting Exercises at st. Francis
Church Last Eventns-Bishop MchIahon
Presides-The nIusic-CIerSy Present.
For the first time in the history of the
Catholic church in this city the reception of
sisters in the Order of Mercy was solemnized
in st. Francis church, Fair Haven last even
ing. The church was well filed by large
audience, who took great interest in the GER
emory. The altar, reredos and side affairs
were brilliantly illuminated with burning
candles and decorated with choice flowers.
High above the altar IN front was the name
"Jesus," surmounted with a cross, all of
sparkling gas jets.
The procession consisted of the cross
bearer, young lady in white, twenty little
girls in white, twenty sisters, the two nov
ices, thirty altar boys, several priests, the
deacon and subdeacon and the Rt. Rev.
Bishop Mcmahon. The procession was
formed in the school near by and marched
up the center aisle of the church to the
sanctuary, while the organ gave forth solemn
music under the hands of one of the sisters
The bishop proceeded to the altar and read
the appropriate prayers. The candidates,
arrayed in bridal robes, Mother Agnes
accompanying, kneeling down before the
bishop, asked the habit of the service in re-
igion and received from him the candle
Father Haggerty of ST. Patrick's preached
the sermon. The candidates then retired
and took off the bridal robes and adorned
themselves in the habit of the order, consist
ing of a black habit and white veil emblem
of innocence. They received from the
bishop the cincture and beads, which we're
of berry, white cross and a white single
Ill mol sok 1a - IL,
which they wear during their
noEitiate. They then Frustrated themselves
| before the bishop with their faces on the
ground as token that they wish to renounce
the world and its ways While PROSTATE be-
| fore the bishop they received his blessing.
The procession reformed and they retired
| from the church and the ceremonies were
finished.
Ihese young ladies remain in this novi-
| tate for two years and at that time they are
professed and receive the silver ring and the
black veil and are then considered to be one
of the order in complete fellowship.
The candidates who took the veil were
Miss Sarah Dooley, of Westerly. R. l., and
Miss Annie Palmer, of Westport, Conn
The choir of the church was augmented
by Mr.. James Herne, basso, and P. II. Smith,
tenor, both of Hartford
The M 7sic for the occasion was the follow
ing: Laudate, in @, Zingarelli; o Cor Am
oris Victima. The special music for the Ger
emony arranged by the sisters and only used
on these occasions was the following:
Quae Ista, in e. Regnum Mundi, in B.
Venl Creator, in G !; TIE Deum, in D o Salu-
taris Hostia; Tantum Ergo in E fiat and sung
with harp accompaniment.
The clergy present were the Right Rev
Bishop McMahon, who oficiated, assisted by
Rev. T. L. Lynch of Westerly as deacon,
Rev. P. Heating of Westport as subdeacon,
and Rev. P. McCabe as master of ceremonies.
In the sanctuary were Rev. Fathers Shahan,
Cooney, Mulcahy, Russell, McGivney,
O'Connell and Mulholland

Memorial Day Exercises.

On next Sunday evening the Admiral
Foote post will attend divine service at Cal
vary Baptist church and not in the morning
as announced in the daily papers. The post
has also accepted an invitation to attend ser
vice at st. John street NJ. E. church in the
morning, when Rev. Mr.. Harris will preach a
sermon appropriate to the occasion.
It is presumed that parties intending to
donate flowers and plants for Decoration day
will keep in reserve all that it is possible for
that day. The lateness of the floral season
would seem to indicate scarcity, hence this
caution. Flowers SO far as possible should
be made into bouquets before bringing them
to the hall, which will in great measure pre-
vent loss and waste by loose cut flowers.
AT a special meeting of Admiral Feote post
on Monday evening eleven new recruits were
mustered. The parade of both Admiral
Foote and Henry G. Merwin posts on Decora-
ton day will be the largest IN membership
since their organization.

On the first Monday of June the office
of Ezra B. Dibble, assessor, will expire, and
his successor, William Hull, will take his
place. During Mr.. Dibble's nine years of
service he has filled his position to the entire
satisfaction of the taxpayers, and by his po-
sition on the board has become thoroughly
conversant with city, town and school prop
erty. For the past seven years he has made
the school grand list, which has been work
requiring tact and discrimination. His Ia
Dor has also called for frequent examina-
tions of real estate records and the transfers
of real estate in the town clerks Office and
making a double index thereof has been
work that has been most successfully per-
formed. Mr.. Dibble's retirement from the
Office which he has held SO long will be re
GREETED by taxpayers, and but for the manip-
ulations of ward politics he would still con-
tinue in his present position. He will carry
with him, wherever he may Co. the best
wishes of taxpayers, irrespective of party.

Is very evenly balanced, theplot is enticipg

however, is that its comedy, while going
