New YORK, May 28.-Her Royal
Highness, Princess Eulalie. arose this
morning refreshed after her day of ab-
solute quiet, but still looking rather
pale. About o'clock she had her GUS
tomary chocolate and rolls in her room,
and shortly after began preparing for
the day. Her old guard. who was to
escort, was on hand early and drew up
in line in the Fifty-ninth street front
of the hotel. A small detachment stood
guard on the stairs leading to this
entrance. Promptly at 1O:45 the prin-
cess left her apartments and started
on her way to the cathedral. She came
from the hotel on the arm of Com
mander Davis, and entered the carriage
followed by City Chamberlain Joseph J.
Donoghue and Prince Antoine. In the
second carriage were Marchioness Arco
Hermosa, the Duke of Tamames, Don
Pedro Jovas and Commander Vegas, of
the Spanish war ship lnfanta Isabella.
The princess wore
PIum-COlored SILK
dress with diagonal white bars. with
fichu Of creamcolored lace over her
shoulder. The girdle was OF the same
delicate material. On her head she
wore new little black toque, trimmed
with palm of violets and a small
bunch of carnations. In her hand
she carried red parasol and
black-bound prayer book. The avenue
all the way to the cathedral was lined
with people anxious to get look at the
princess. AT the church the crowd was
very great, but orderly. 1t gave way
for the party as it approached, preceded
by the old guard under command of
Maj. Sloane. A squad of police kept
passageWay into the cathedral, and as the
princess entered she walked over strips
of carpets which had been laid from the
curb to the door. In the meantime the
crow had entered the great cathedral
and thronged it to such all extent that
the police had to be called in to clear
the way and make room for those en-
titled to place.
The Princess
assembled the steps upon the arm of
'Donoghue, and at the en-
trance were they met by Vicar General
Mooney and Father Layelle. preceded
by torch bearer and an acolyte.
The royal party were escorted to the
front Of the church, and the princess
and her royal escort given chairs imme-
diately in front OF the first row of pews.
There was no special deviation from the
regular mass. and the music had not
been prepared particularly for the occa-
sion. The conditions surrounding the
ceremony aud the distinguished charac-
ter Of the visitors were what gave the
service its special Importance. The
celebrants of the mass were Fathers
McMahOm and Murphy as deacons and
Patrick Murphy as sub-deacon. Father
Lavelle preached the mass sermon, in
which, referring to
The Royal Party,
he spoke as follows: sit is my privilege
and pleasure, in your names, in the
name of the most reverend archbishop,
a church at New Rochelle, and in the
name Of the vicar general, and in the |
name of all the Catholic people in this
broad country, to welcome the infanta
and her conSort to America They |
must be indeed hard to please if their |
hearts do not swell with pleasure at the |
sight of this glorious country, with its |
energy, its freedom and its marvellous |
resources.
"The Catholic church is more strongly |
founded in this country than any other |
in the world. Indeed, in no part of the |
world is it stronger, more energetic |
and more powerful in its influences on |
the hearts of the people than it is in the |
United States. and indeed, in the whole |
continent of America. They must re-
member, too, with qualification, that it |
was through one of their
IlIustriOus Ancestors
that the gates of this great land were
opened. We owe their ancestors hon. |
age and to them all the respect we can
give them. l wish again to say that, in |
your name and in the name of all the |
Catholics of America, we wish them |
the greatest pleasure and happiness of |
their lives in this visit to America"
After the service the royal party |
tie old guard, the party being absent |
from the Savoy two hours. Shortly |
thereafter breakfast was served in the |
private dining room, Maj. Sloane and |
Chamberlain O'Donoghue being among |
the guests. At $3.50 Prince Antoine, |
Duke d. Tamames and Don Pedro |
went for a drive with Gen. Fitzgerald |
and Gen. Varnum. Two hours later |
her royal highness, Infanta Eulalie, |
Don Pedro Jovas and Commander |
Davis took spin through Central park, |
going as far as the northern limits and |
returned at o'clock, when dinner was
served.
Reception to EulaIie.
If numbers present and words of
praise showered upon her were an in
deX of the occasion, the reception ten
dered the princess by the Catholic club
tonight was tremendous success. The
apartments of the club were packed,
and a distinguished body of guests
showed and pushed against each other
in an endeavor to gain vantage ground
where they might see the distinguished
lady when she arrived. Promptly at
9:15 the royal party arrived, the prin-
cess being received at the doorway by
President Farnes, of the club. Never
entered the house aud proceeded to the
ball room. Her gown was of the Em-
pire style, of white royal bengaline,
yoke of Mecklin lace, very full and
quite decollete, with jeweled bands on
the shoulders. The full court train was
trimmed with lace. The infanta's hair
was done in a soft Grecian coil. Her
outside wrap was a beautiful creation III
