TO WEAR THE RED HAT.
What the Honor Signifies and How
IL is Conferred.


IL is Conferred.
The clergy of the Savannah See have
sent congratulations to Archbishop Glib.
bons upon his elevation TO the Cardinal
ate. The formal announcement of his
elevation was made on Wednesday. The
letter from Cardinal Jacobini containing
the papal announcement stated that the
Pope in comforting the honor on Arch
bishop Gibbons does so in recognition OF
his valuable services to the church, espe-
cially during the late Plenary Council; on
account Of his personal friendship for the
American primate, and as further mark
OF his high appreciation of the great re-
public of the United States and the met
ropolitan See OF Baltimore.
The cOnsist0rv TO confirm the nOmina-
tiOn will probably meet in Rome on June
Z. Archbishop Gibbons will not be pres
ent. After the confirmation be will re-
ceive at Baltimore the lesser insignia of
bis rank from two papal messengers, one
of whom will be a layman and a member
of the Noble Guard, who are gentlemen
of nigh birth and the 5ody-guard of the
Pope. The delegated guardsman will
bring with him the zucchettO, or skull
cap. His companion will be an ecclesi-
astic of some minor prelatic rank in the
Pope's household, and he will fetch the
berrctta.
The ceremony of the imposition will
then take place in the Cathedral at Balti-
more, probably in the first week i'm July,
IN the presence of large number of the
American hierarchy and other dIstin-
guished cburchmen. 1t has not been de-
cided as yet who shall confer the habit of
the Sacred college on the new Cardinal,
but il is thought that il will be either
Archbishop Williams, of Boston, or Arch
bishop CorrIgan. of New YORK. The late
Cardinal McCloskey received his red hat
from the hands of Archbishop Bayley.
Within year after receiving the biretum
Archbishop Gibbons will be required to
visit Rome and receive from the hands of
the Pope himself the large red hat. Until
the arrival of the biretum the Archbishop
will continue to wear the purple; after
that time he will appear only in scarlet
robes.
The hat is merely part of a ceremony,
and il serves but twice, once when the
cardinal receives it and next when il rests
upon the catafalque at his obsequies. 1t
is then suspended from the ceiling of the
chapel, or aisle of the church in which he
may be buried. The form is round, with
a low crown and wide, stiff RIM from the
inside Of which hang fifteen tassels at
tached in triangle from one to five. At
the ceremony OF receiving the hat the
Pope says in Latin: "Receive for the
glory of Almighty God and the adornment
Of the Holy Apostolic see this red hat, the
sign of the unequaled dignity of the car
dinaIate, by which is declared that even
to death, by the shedding Of thy blood
thou shouldst show myself intrepid for
the exaltation of the blessed faith, for the
peace and tranquility OF the Christian
people, for the increase and prosperity oil
the Holy Roman Church. In the name OF
the Father, and OF the Son, and OF the
Holy Ghost. Amen" Archbishop Glib
bons will be one OF the youngest cardinals
in the college.

Butler, who played right field for Savan-
nah last year, and who was expected to
JOIN the club in Chattanooga last week,
has written that he will not come. In his
letter he says that he is regularly en-

to play ball at present. The management
OF the Savannah club states that it will
blacklist him If he does not come. Butler
has written to one of the stockholders OF
the association that he will not come I'M

can blacklist him if it wants TO.

KEEP THE BALL N1oVING.
A Chance to Have Congress Street
Paved With Asphalt.

Congress street from the Screven house
to the Forest City Mills is the best and
most regularly built up business street in
Savannah. Standing at the corner Of
Bull street and looking west a continu-
Gus row of substantial brick stores is
presented to view as far as the eye can
see. Many Of Savanpah's most enter
prising business firms are to be
lOund on this thoroughfare. There is
some talk Of getting up a petition tn paY e
Congress street with asphalt from Jelfer-
son to Drayt0n streets. This would be q
great improvement, especially if the
streets connecting with BrOugntOn street
we're also paved with the same material.

enterprise if it is to be accomplished.

meeting Of the merchants doing business
on the street is the proper means OF
putting the ball III motion.

Savannah Yacht Clubs course from
Thuuderbolt to Warsaw buoy and return
Yesterday afternoon, and came in winner
and ahead Of six other yachts that started
out before she did.
The club had bad day for its annual
regatta, but the damp weather did NOT
noticeably affect the spirits OF the par
ticipants or the spectators. From the
time tue steamer st. Nicholas lett the
Lincoln street wharf at $3.50 O'CLOCK
with 100 members OF the club and guests
on board until O'Clock in the afternoon
jupiter Pluvius shed copIous tears. 1t
was not an incessant downpour but the
lapses. though frequent were snort.
Moisture aDOunded. 1t fell in Dig drops
ON the steamers deck and splashed over
into the saline waves below, while be-
tween decks a white aprOhed commlssa-
riat dipped ladies' full of favored and col
pred LIQUID from a huge bowl into row OF
plasses. the alignment of which WAS per-
petually shifting. There was an appar-
emit aversion on the part Of the regatta iol-
lowers to the distilled water which
battered down on the awning, but sucn
was not the case as TO the article winch
Commodore Hone had adulterated with
lemon and magical skill, and some other
things which no one else knows so well
how to cOmmingle.
AT THE CLUB HOUSE.
When the st. Nicholas reached the club
house wharf after steaming around from
the city the rain was pouring down, and
quite a number of members OF the club
and friends were waiting in the cosy club
house. Out in the river under the blum
quite a feet Of yachts was lying at
anchor. Small boats were moving about
smartly from wharf to yacht and from
yacht to yacht putting crews and stores
aboard. 1t was then about noon. All
the morning the hope had been enter
tanned that the clouds would blow over
and fresh breeze would come up at mid
day. Neither of those much desired
things occurred, and at 1890 the signal
was given to get ready.
The steamer had been lying at the
wharf for an hour, and nearly all who went
aboard at the foot of Lincoln street went
off and had some dancing and ices 10
waltz music by the Union Cornet Band.
1t has been remarked ''that all the ladies
love the shipping" and when the yachts
began TO weigh their anchors the truth Of
the remark was illustrated by the large
number OF ladies who boarded the
steamer.
