the Centennial Buildings, and, again.
at the formal opening, May 10, 1876.

ne was u prominent speaker. In 1881
he delivered the Introductory discourse
at the Ecumenical Council, then gath
cred in London, in the CITY Road
Chapel, built by Wesley. Other pub
lie addresses were made in courses of
sermons and lectures throuphout
Europe and this country and notably
at Yale College and Cornel University
HIS POWER AS A SPEAKER.
One of the most effective of Bishop
simpsons short extemporaneous
speeches was that delivered before the
great audience of English and Ameri-
cans who met at Exeter Hall to make
public expression of sorrow at the
death of President Garfield. James
Russell Lowell was the PRINCIPAL
speaker, aud he read a beautiful and
touching tribute to the character and
virtues Of the martyred president
Around him were seated men high in
the English Church, and men of world
wide reputation as statesmen, philan-
throplsts, and scientists. The best of
all English society was there. In the
audience which filled the orat hall tn
the doors were American travellers and
English people of all ranks in life
croWding together to testify the svm-
pathy that one country felt for the
other IN its heavy affiiction.
Mr. Lowell was evidently moved bv
the scene, and the old Bishop who sat
near him intently listening to his
words, showed by his cOuntenance how
much it affected him when Mr.. Lowell
concluded. Applause was showered
upon his beautifully expressed senti-
mehts, but the audience seemed to
want something more spontaneous and
more directly addressed to their svm.
pathies. Somebody called for the
Bishop, and ne came, willing, appar-
emily, to the front Of the platform. He
spoke to the audience simply and
plainly, putting himself at once, bv his
eloquent words, in the attitude of one
who, with themselves, had suffered
personal loss in Garfeld's death. His
English hearers were given personal
part in it, too, by his touching allusion
to Queen Victoria's kindly messages
and thoughtful words Of coincidence.
. God bless the Queen for her womanly
sympathy and queenly courtesy" said
he SO fervently that he appeared as a
man of God calling down a blessing.
and the audience joined with him in a
heartfelt amen" At the end of the
address the entire audience rose TO
their feet and cheered to the echo the
words and the speaker.

CAUGHT At LAST.
Ono of the Texas Stage Robber. HI
nauy Corraled.

Yesterday forenoon, Deputy Sheriff
Sist, of Hereford county, Texas, who has
been in the city for several days in search
of the Game sville coach robbers, made an
arrest of one of the supposed parties to
the crime on Sixteenth street. The man
was taken at once to the county jail,
where lie wa placed in a cell. His APP
pearance tailed exactly with the descrip-
ton in the hands of the deputy sheriff,
even to a peculiar mark which was found
upon his person. The man refused to
give his name or state anything what
ever regarding his alleged connection with
the affair. He is young
man of medium size but of great breadth
of shoulder, and has the general appear
nee of a man fully able to take care of
himself in an ugly difficulty. He has
been in the city for several days and was
looking about for a place on a ranch. Mr..
j. G. Spencer, of Jenny's Stockade, who
was in the stage coach at the time of the
robbery, was taken around to the jail to
see the alleged road agent. Mr.. Spencer
was unable to identify him as he had not
seen the face of a small man in the road
agents party, but his voice was familiar,
The man told the deputy sheriff that his
partner, who was known to have been in
the city with him, had gone out with a
certain outfit. The officer, although not
placing much reliance in the statement,
started out at once to investigate the mat
ter. The prisoner will be kept in the
county Jail for several days % come prob
ably. Deputy Sheriff Sist has requisi-
tons for the men he is looking after.
The second one of the pair was brought
to the city about IL o'clock, having been
arrested about twenty-five miles from here.
He was also lodged in jail.

HOLY WEEK.
Special Significance of Some Cath
0iic Church Ceremonies.
The Episcopal Observance of Good
Friday.

Holy Week, and with it Lent, is draw
ing to a close. This week exceeds all 9TH
ers in interest for the Christian world, nor
does any other give rise to such manifesto
tons of piety. In all Catholic churches
the Office of the tenebrG is recited each
day. The name tenebrg has been given
to the mathis and lauds of the last three
days of Holy Week, because this office
used formerly to be recited in the night;
and even when the hour was anticipated
the name tenebrG was kept up for the
reason that it began with daylight but
ended after the sun had set. There is an
impressive ceremony peculiar to this office
which tends to perpetuate its name.
There is placed in the sanctuary, near the
altar, a large triangular candlestick CON
tanning fifteen candles. At the end of
each psalm or %canticle one of the candles
is extinguished, but the one which is left
at the top of the triangle is left lighted.
The six candles on the altar are also put
out. Then the master of ceremonies takes
the lighted candle from the triangle and
hides it behind the altar during the
recitation of the miserere and the prayer
which follows the psalm. The darkness
which pervades the sanctuary while the
psalm and prayer are said is commemora-
tive of the darkness that covered the
whole earth on the
C~RUCIFIXIoN OF CHRIST,
and the noise made represents the confu-
sion of nature for the loss of its author,
when the earth trembled, the rocks were
rent, the graves opened and the veil ofthe
temple was torn from the top to the bot
tom After the services on Holy Thurs
day the clothes and are strip
ped from the altar. This ceremony signi-
fies the suspension of the Holy Sacra6ce.
The veneration of the cross takes place in
Catholic churches this morning. This
ceremony was first instituted in Jerusalem
in the fourth century. About the seventh
century the practise became universal.
The priests first kiss the cross and it is
afterward passed to the faithful. The
mass of the day is called the mass of the
p~resanctified that is, the host reserved
from the day before is taken back to the
high altar in procession and is received by
the priest. Holy Saturday the blessing of
the new fire occurs. A taper is lighted
and from this the triple candle is lighted.
Then comes the blessing of the Easter
water, which is succeeded by the blessing
of the Paschal candle, which is to burn at
all the services of the church in commem-
Grafton of Christ's resurrection, and to
retain its place in the sanctuary until
Paschal time is out, which is on Ascen-
sion Day. After this, the water to be
used in baptizing children throughout the
year is specially blessed and devoted to
this end with chrism.
EPISCOPAL oHURcH SERVICES.
The week is also one of the ~profoundest
interest in the Episcopal church. Good
Friday Today will be observed in St.
Marks church by special services at IL
o'clock in the morning and 8 o'clock in
the evening. The beautiful anthem for
the evening, Jesus, Oh Saviour" will be
sung by j. Faure. The Knights Tenn
plar will attend the evening services in a
body in uniform.

PLEASANT ENTERTAINMENT
Given at the Congregational Church
Last Evening.

The entertainment given at the Congre-
g%ational church parlors under the
auspices of c. H. Dayton's Sunday school
class, was a very nice affair and was very
numerously attended-the basement room
being filled to overlooking. Mr.. j. S.
Taylor, superintendent of the school, had
charge of the entertainment and made
the announcements according to the pre-
arranged programme. The exercises
opened with a recitation by Miss Lottie
Moore entitled, The Angel" and it was
most excellently rendered by the young
lady. The next was a tableau by the
class representing statuary. This was
very beautiful, but a thin gauze or veil
spread across the arched opening in front
of the ante-room where the class was
arranged, in a measure so dimmed the
view that those in the back seats could
distinguish but very little of the scenic
effect. A vocal duet by the Misses Annie
and Carrie Smith entitled, Beautiful
Dreams" was very finely sung. A recita-
ton, ''The New Church Organ" by Miss
Sadie Bristol, elected great applause.
Tableau, ''The Maiden's Choice" par
ticipated in by the Misses Tuttle, Smith,
Whitcomb and Hicks, came next on the
programme. An instrumental solo by
Miss Mary Whitcomb, followed another
tableau, ''The Artists Studio" This
was succeeded by an instrumental duet,
'The Song of the Skylark," rendered by
the Misses Quinby and Martin. The
concluding tableau of the evening and of
the entertainment, THE Cross" by
Miss Nellie Stanley, was the most beau
tiful of anything presented by the even
ing's exercises and was, of itself, well
worth the price of admission. A short
sociable was afterwards held in the church
parlors. Those having charge of the en-
tcrtainment wish to return thanks to
Messrs. Warren, Post and Wyman and to
Mrs. Furness, who posed the figures in
the tableaux.

As it is customary in the Catholic
churches to have special musical services
on Easter, the choir of St. Johns, of this
city, purpose giving the congregation and
all others who may attend on that day, a
musical treat. They have been very for
trmate in securing the services of Prof j.
b. Peirie, of Creston, Iowa, under whose
able direction they have mastered Mozart's
grandest composition, viz; The Twelfth
Mass, consisting of the following memb-
ers-Kyric, Gloria, Credo, Sanctus, Ben
edictus and Agnus Del. This will be
rendered in the morning, as also Lam
billottes "Regina-C aeli" and Millard's Ave
Maria with violin obligato, for the offer
tory. In the evening, Vespers will be
sung. During the benediction, a tenor
solo and Goeb's grand Tantum Ergo will
finish a programme that the church-going
people of Cheyenne have not often had an
opportunity to enjoy.

r
some of the Meteorological Features
Presented In Fourteen Years.

Observer Edgar McGovern, of the
signal service office, has just compiled a
report showing the mean monthly tenn
perature for the month of March from
1871 to 1884 inclusive. The coolest month
embraced within that period was March,
1875, and the warmest month March, 1879,
there being a difference of 1876 March,
1875, was also the windiest month, the
total velocity reaching II, 1874 miles. In
March, 1874, the month with the least
wind, the velocity reached 6,O23 miles, a
difference of 6,16l miles. The wind
record for March is always the greatest of
the year at this station, and that of 1875
represents the greatest number of miles
recorded in the past fourteen years. The
largest recorded snowfall for the month of
March was in 1884, and the least in
March, 1882. About twenty-five inches
Of unmelted snow fell during March, 1884,
which is an excess over any past March
since 1871. A tabulated statement of the
comparative record as prepared by
Sergeant McGovem is as follows:
