ST. PATRICK,s CHURCH.
Thrown Open to the Public Last Night
Organ Recital and Concert.

Ii
Organ Recital and Concert.
St. Patrick's Church was last night open
ed to the public for the first time since it
was closed for repairs last spring. de-
scription Of the improvements that have
beea made was published in TIE Star yes
terday, but even that failed to do justice
to the full beauty of the effect when the
church was Illuminated by the myriads of
electric lights that brought out the rich
tints on walls and pillars and grained
arches and vaulted ceiling. The most ar
tistic taste is manifest in all the coloring
and decoration, and the church is now per-
haps the handsomest of its size in this
country. The electric light plant is one of
the most complete to be found, and the ar
tistic fixtures exceed in beauty of design
and elegance of finish anything ever seen
here. The Introduction of the plant, wir-
Ing, switchboard. ETC., was the work of Mr..
John R. Galloway Of this city, and its per-
feet operation last night was a source of
great satisfaction to Columbani, the de-
signer Of the fixtures and tabernacle lamp.
which We're shown off to their full advan-
tage.
The ceasion Of the opening of the church
last night was an organ recital and con-
cert: the first to display the effect Of the
handsome new organ. and the second to
show the excellence of the choir under the
new director, Sig. Mariana Mama. The or
ganist last night was Mr.. John Porter Law
renee and that skillful musician never
played better. He brought out all the beau
ties of the instrument. its mellowness and
richness Of tone. its orchestral effects and
its volume and power. His numbers were:
Bach's Toccata and Fuge in D minor, Saint
Saens' lie Rouet d'Omphale.' Chopins
Military Polonaise," Claimants "Nuptial
March" and Grieg's peer Gynt Suite"
These selections We're sufficiently varied in
character to bring out the full resources of
both player and organ, and ali were inter-
preted in the most artistic manner The
choir quartet is composed Of Miss Blanche
Mattingly. soprano; Mrs. Paulina MaiIa,
contralto; Mr.. w. D. Mcfarland tenor, and
Mr.. B. A. Ryan. bass: and each had a solo
with chorus accompaniment Miss Mat

splendid effect Mr.. Mcfarland in Gou-

all well sung. The choir was assisted by
Mr.. Anton kaspar, violinst; Miss Anita

In this city Mascagni's prayer, "Eterno Id

Work has SO far advanced on the chape
Of St. Anthony of Padua, which is being
erected for ST. Matthews Church, that the
foundation walls are already in place. The
general plan Of the church being that of a
cross. 1t is the intention of the architect in
the designs to build four chapels, one each
at the corners formed by the arms of the
cross. The chapel which is now under
course of construction is at the southeast
ern intersection and to the east of the VA
rochal residence, which fronts on Rhode

corner, and near which will he located the
pulpit. In the center of the church, be-
meath the dome, will be placed the altar

about three years hence. The arrangement
of the chapeis in conjunction with the
placing of the Pulpit, is expected to render
the acoustic properties Of st. Matthew's

Asleep Over Seven Months.

Peter Crawford, twenty-five years old,
has been asleep, at Cleveland, with the ex-
ception of a few hours. for the last seven
or eight months. His case is the most re-
markable one that has ever come under
the observation Of Cleveland physicians.
Nearly every doctor in the city, and not a
few from other cities, have viewed what
bids fair to be the most remarkable ca Sc
of catalepsy ever known.
A little over year ago Mr. Crawford
was thrown from mail wagon in New
York, sustaining injuries to his spine,
Every device employed to awaken the
man has proven futile.

No doubt LIE Grand saw at once that 1t
would be impossible for him to maintain
his incognito, so he made a virtue of neces-
sity, and said:
What! are you running away. too?"
"Only for day or So" I said.
'"That is just my case. I want little
change, and really there is nothing to be
gained dancing attendance on the con-
gress. Never was there such collection
of dumb dogs
If had still doubted that LIE Grand had
obtained some valuable information I could
have doubted no longer. Nothing else
would have justified this turning of his
back upon the congress whilst it was still
in the middle of it's sittings. I determined
to stick close to him in the hope that
might gain some definite information.
However, during our long journey he was
very reticent, and it was not until we were
actually aboard the steamer which was to
convey us to Dover that he allowed his
hahitual boastfulness to overcome his eau
ton in even the smallest degree. Then,
judging himself, no doubt to be beyond
the reach of any possible danger, he drew
from his pocket the blue official envelope

$50 the prince was right in his suspi-

earth did LIE Grand manage to get hold of
it?"
I knew that though I had secured the
draft, which might be useful for the de-
lection of the traitor, whoever he might
allow himself to be dependent on any docu-
ment. I did not doubt that he had learnt
off the principal clauses by heart, and that
we should. in spite of his loss, see the pro-
visions of the treaty in next days Dial.
So 1 sent the following telegram to the
prince:

Perhaps you would not think so,

so common that very few people. un-
less it is a case of pneumonia, pay any
attention to a cold. There are a great
many cases of catarrh and consumption
which have their origin in this neglect
of the simplest precaution of every day

possible. BY all means do not neglect

MAYORS MESSAGE.

He called attention first, to the
workhouse, which from its erection
was inadequate for the purpose for
which it was intended, and to-day is
wholly unfit for human habitation and
should be abandoned, and better quar-
tiers provided for the unfortunates who
are compelled to do duty within its
walls" The Mayor recommended that
the Police Committee take such action
us will give the city workhouse that
will be a credit, self-sustaining or a
source of revenue, and in some re-
spects a reformatory. The building
should be of brick, and OF ample di-
mansions.
Second, the wharf is inadequate to
accommodate the boating interests,
and should be improved. There is a
valuable water front that is. and has
been for a long time, disgrace to the
city" The Mayor advocated the grad
ing and paving of the public landing
without delay. The necessity is
greater now than ever before, because
of the erection of the retaining wall by
the p, c. & st. l.. road, twenty-foot
stage of water giving little room on
that part of the wharf.
Third, the best interests of the city
demand another location for the Gre
matory." The present structure has
been rebuilt several times. and is now
wreck and should be abandoned for
d more accessible place. Such action,
IN the opinion of the Mayor, would save
a large sum annually and give better
service
