Referring to the laying OF the corner:
stone of st. Augustine's church last week
at Austin, the Democrat of that city has
this to say: Promptly at 8 o'clock the
clergymen formed in procession for the
march to the new st. Augustine's church
site. There were about twenty priests
present, and the exercises all through
we're very impressive and nicely carried
out. The march was taken up from the
pastors residence, and the clergymen
we're attired in handsome long black
robes, with lace covering. Passing along
through the vast crowd in attendance the
party presented very impressive sight.
The introduction was given at the west
end, after which the ceremony attending
the laying of the stone was taken up at
the location of the large tower on the
southeast corner. The corner. stone is a
beauty, made of Wisconsin granite, and
finely engraved. 1t is 2 feet high and 8
feet inches square. Upon the polished
face of the stone is engraved the follow
| ing inscription: 'srhis temple is dedi-
