TRINITY's NEW DECORATIONS.
The work of decorating Trinity, which
began, June Is, is rapidly approaching
completion and the church will be re-
opened ON Sunday, August 2. The walls
of the interior have been thoroughly
cleaned and decorated by j. e r. Lamb
of New York. The coloring is beauti-
fully harmonized and of a subdued tone,
the prevailing tint being terra Gotta. The
arched ceiling is of a warm cream color
relieved by border of olive and brown.
The walls are frescoed in terra Gotta, the
borders being of dark olive and cream;
while the arches above the pillars of an
tque oak, which support the roof, are
finished in deeper shade of terra Gotta,
embellished with a design of passion
flowers. Much attention has been paid
to enriching the decorations of the chan
eel, the designs for which have been elab-
grated with especial care and its appear
ance has been greatly improved by the
removal of the front pew on each side.
The interior of the church has been fur
nished with new doors of panelled oak,
all the woodwork has been thoroughly
renovated and the old windows replaced
by others of cathedral glass of subdued
colors. The vestibule walls are of light
olive, with windows of opalescent glass,
to correspond with those in the
body of the church. The furniture of
the chancel and platform has been re-
covered with velvet; the cushions for
the pews, with damask; and new car
pets have been laid throughout the
church, that of velvet in the chancel be-
ing particularly rich. In addition to the
many gifts at Easter, the following arti'
cles have recently been presented: A
