ner-stone Laying in Baltimore.
The corner stuno of st. Pat
rick's Church, Baltimore, was laid
Sunday afternoon by Cardinal Glib
hons on tho site Of tho old st. Patrick's
Church, broadway and Bank street
Tho cardinal was assisted by Bishop
Monaghan, Bishop Curtis ana largo
number OF priests, and the ceremonies
were witnessed by concourso of people
who crowded the flour space of tho now
adifica and ovorilowed uuon Broadway
and Bank streets AT tho conclusion of
the corner stone laying exercises Bishop
Monaghan delivered a sermon and the
cardinal spoke few congratulatory
words TO the congregation.
Bishop Monaghan said in part
with solemn prayer and chant Of
mother church the corner stone of the
new st. Patrick's Church has been laid.
Tbs ceremony recalls to our iuinds
another event in the history of the
past. just Dl years ago tile corner
stone OF the first ST ratricks Church
was laid by the first archbishop of
Baltimore. The erection of a church in
those days was no easy work. Catholics
were few and scattered and their wealth
was slight. But old St. Patrick's arose
as monument to their faith and
generosity.
"In the progress of time this has
given way to another ehiiico, which will
be more beautiful, and. We trust, as
lasting Those who erected the first
church, like tho ediiice itself, have
passed away, hut their faith in With
you. l can conceive OF no greater
monument of your faith than in the
building of this church. Through it
you are giving back to God something of
what lie has given you.
1.-The true foundation stOne is the
/ Son Of Mau. Here in this church will
His doctrines bB taught ana llia light
disseminated. liy His death on the
cross He paid the penalty of our sins,
but the sacrifice of Calvary will he
daily renewed in mystic form upon
tine altar of this church. Within tho
tabernacle of this altar He will make
His home among you. Within this
temple what miracles will not the
Holy Ghost perform. Who. can toll of
all tho gracos that will come TO those
who worship here. This building will
become for US the cato OF heaven.
There are three tabernaGles 10 which
God has seen fit to dwell. Tho first
was the bosom Of Mary, tho second the
sacred humanity of God, the third is
our churches, for which no expense
should be spared,
1.-The glory Of tho new st. Patrick 8
may eclipse that of the old, but may
We emulate the faith of those gone no
fore, who erected the first ST. patrick's
Let uH generously cooperate in erect

hardships. At tho death OF q man pos
