Tonight.
The jubilee celebration, which
will close this evening at st. Mary's
college by the Catholics in this
city, and assisted by host fvisit-
ing clergymen from near and far,
had to be temporarily postponed,
owing to rain on Tuesday last, will
be concluded this evening. The
opening was of a strictly religious
nature, beginning with "Hamma's
Missa Sursum Corda" and "Coram
Episcopo" high mass celebration in
which all the visiting priests and
visitors took part at Saint Mary's
church, on Sunday morning last.
That part of the celebration which
took place on Monday last has al
ready been commented upon as a
success, but the rain on the sue
ceeding day prevented the contin-
uation the day following, and will
be held this evening, for which the
following is the

ANOTHER MIRACLE.
An Ancient Firearm That Wasn't
Loaded Goes Off.


An accident that very nearly resulted
in being tragedy took place in Scheu-
merit Bros. cigar store, on X street, be-
tween Seventh and Eighth, on Saturday
night.
Charles Scheunert, one of the proprie-
tors, was examining small fiint-lock
cannon, presumably one used by Gem
eral Suffer or Fremont for fertilization
purposes, and which wasn't loaded"
"0h, no, it isn't loaded explained
Scheunelt to several friends and the
clerk, Patrick Mcclure, and then he
showed them how it worked.
About the time the boys were all inter-
ested in the howitzer it went off with
report something like that caused by the
explosion at jacksonville last year, which
was mistaken for an earthquake by peo-
pie at a distance. McGuire, who was d.
rectly in range of the gun, only escaped
by turning a handspring, while corner
of the safe and other furniture was badly
wrecked.
The contents of the ancient gun went
on their way, however, and an hour or so
afterward looked like horizontal bal
loon, going over the I-street levee and
toward the outskirts of town. If the
ponderous projectiie had collided with
anything there would doubtless have
been damage done.

tho GuurdSnen.
At st. Paul's Church last evening the
services were unusually impressive, and
large congregation was present, includ-
ing most of the First Artillery Regiment,
with the brigade and staff officers in uni
form.
The military marched to the church in
body and took the seats assigned them
in the front pews. The officers present
were the following: djutant-General

The pulpit and altar of the church were
tasteftllly decorated with flags and colors
and two stands of guns occupied places at
either side of the altar. together With
! floral pieces.
The singing by the choir of sixteen
voices, under The direction of w. II.
Kinross, was exceptionally strong, and
the music selected peculiarly appropriate
to the occasion.
The sermon, delivered by Rev. Mr..
Ottmann, who is Chaplain of the First
Regiment, occupied scarcely half an
hour, and was devoted in part to the
members of the National Guard. He
took his text from the sixteenth chapter
of Pau's first epistle to the Corinthians,
thirteenth verse: Watch ye, stand fast
in the faith; acquit you like men; be
strong"
His discourse was on the subject of
True Manliness," and he dwelt upon
the requirements for the true type of
manhood, holding that it was essential
for a man to be highly developed physic-
ally, morally and mentally, to represent
true manliness-
After the usual prayer and henediction,
the "Hallelujah Chorus' from the Mes
siah of Handel was rendered by the
choir, at the close of which the members
of the regiment marched out, while the
other portion of the congregation re-
manned seated until their departure.
The rendition of the chorus by the choir
was given with excellent effect.
