Along the front Of the gallery were fes-

emblem of nature profusely adorned the
upper and lateral parts of the chancel,
all depending objects being especially
adorned. Many boquets and baskets OF
choice cut flowers figured, here and
there throughout the chancel, the
Bishops throne being especially be-
decked. The decorations, taken with
the numerous bright lights OF the altar,
produced beautiful effect. Along the
front of the gallery ran this
inscription in silver letters, "Adveniat
arnus Jubilaeus aureus" freely trans
lated being MAY you live to celebrate
your golden jubilee" and on the three
sides of the chancel was this tnscrip-

''Keyrie Eleison," sung by the trained
Cathedral choir under the direction OF
Prof Herman Schockey, opened the
magnificent ceremonies OF the day, and
