CURED at Mt. St. Joseph's college
Thursday a. m. was decidedly more
elaborate and carefully prepared than
ever before in the city's history. A
large congregation was present and
the attendants Of the college were all
in gala attire.
Solemn high mass was observed IN
the college chapel, commencing at .
o'clock, with Rev. B. F. Hayden OF
Solomon as celebrant, assisted by
Rev. McNamara Of this city and Rev.
IF. Leary Of Chapman. Rev. +.
Shields was master Of ceremonies and
Rev. Father Henneberry, a church
missionary from California, preached
the sermon. 1t was devoted to a
description Of the intent and form Of
various churchly professions from
earliest times to the present and an
earnest dissertation on the signific-
ance Of the communion.
Three repositories" or leaf-covered
affairs had been arranged in the COL
lege yard and after mass the process

fix which was borne in advance came
the celebrant bearing the "remon-
strancen and his attendants all under

gregation. 10 the music Of sweet
voices singing q professional hymn

beneath the leafy shelter candles were
burning and all had been arranged
for the service. At each the cele-
brant stopped and gave the benedic-
ton. then at the close all returned to
the chapel for the finishing Of the
service. 1t was impressive and in
teresting throughout and made a
striking ceremony.

TWO ARE SICK.
]. G, Armitage Writes Of the Progress
Of the Abilene Missionaries.

personal letter Tom d. u Arlnl-
tage dated San Pedro, Central Amer
lea, May %, just received, says this
Of the Abilene Gospel Union mission
aries:
nWe have been in this place about
ten days, delayed on account Of mule
transportation. We can get the mules
but they ask too much and we think
we can save money by the delay.
Our party Is holding meetings every
evening in Spanish and each Sabbath
in English. There is very nice
Methodist church here and a Mission
house but have not been used or a
sermon preached in three years. The
Mission house is good commodious
building and some furniture in it.
The party in charge gave our party
the use of church and Mission house
free Of charge.
1.-THE Catholics have a small
church here but no priest. Wefound
San Pedro entirely destitute Of the
gospel and a town of probably 5000
population. The people are sociable
and easily approached and yet there
are castles or grades of society. The
natives live mostly in mud houses
rooted with poles and branches, which
make very good roof doors but no
windows; other houses have windows
and doors, iron roofs and large veran-
dahs both above and below.
"Ihis place had a yellow fever
scourge three years ago, the only
time it was ever prevalent here. The
town is 81 miles from the coast; rail-
road Ms far as here, Bananas Is one
Of the staple crops. They ship about
| $l2,0O worth per month. The boat
we came ON intended to load 10000
punches, worth from 70 to 80 cents a
bunch. q presume Mr.. Porter would
like few lunches at that price. The
custom house passed all our freight
free Of duty without even examining
it. The Lord has wonderfully led us
and went before US and we are wait
ing iol Him to say: "Move on to

10000 population and about 100 to
