UNIQUE MIDNIGHT MASS.
Ceremonies mt Jerusalem Duplicated
I'm Washington.

a unique ceremony took place at the
Franciscan monastery last night, being the
celebration Of midnight mass according
to the rites and ceremonies which mark
the event at Jerusalem.
The Franciscan monks are special guar
dians Of the holy places in and around the
home OF the Saviour. Their monastery in
this city is counterpart of the monastery
at Jerusalem. Both are built after the
model of st. Sophia, and the high, rolling
arches and transepts afford peculiar ad-
vantagas for hearing the chants in all their
solemnty.
The entire Brotherhood Of St. Francis
stationed In this city took part, and many
of the leading prelates assisted them.
The mass was the usual ceremony Of the
Catholic Church, except thai during it the
brotherhood marched three times around
the great temple chanting the "Adeste
Fieeles.'' Notwithstanding the monastery
is more than four miles from the city hun
Clreds of people made the night journey to
witness the unusual celebration. The
same ceremony will be repated on New
Year Eve.

new BUILDINGS ERECTED
A Gain in Washington of Fifty
Per Cent Over Last Year.
Nearly Two Hundred Structures Put
lion DOIlars-OPerntiOns Retarded
by the High Prices of Material.
The Increase in Other Cities.

Local building operations for last month
show a large gain over those of the same
month last year. II is gratifying also TO
note that the increase has been larger
comparatively than that in nearly all other
American cities. there being only five cit
les that show greater figures.
In a short time it will be possible TO
make UP the complete record for the year
1899. and it is stated by those familiar
with the extent of the recent building
operations in Washington that it will
show even larger gains for the year than
for the month.
Higher prices for all building materials
and other causes have prevented the carry
ing out of many building enterprises that
were planned, and have retarded others. 1t
was feared that prosperity among the ar
chitects and the building trades might be
absent. but the results show that this be-
lief was entirely too pessimistic a view TO
take Of the situation.
The most that can be said is that IL
prices had not been so high prosperity
would have been greater.
The records of the twenty-five largest
cities in the country for the month are
given in the following table:

Social Distinction.
From the Chicago News.)


A family living in North Side fat welcomed
new housemaid last week. The girl had come
from Michigan and her appearance was prepos-
sessing. Soon after her advent it discovered
that she was inclined to treat the family with a
patronizing air.
MARY, You must do better, or shall have to
find some one to take your place." the mis-
tress remarked the other morning.
81 don't allow anyone to speak to me that
way" replied Mary with toss Of her head.
I'm Just as good as you are, and want you to
know it."
Mary founced out Of the room and returned in
two minutes with the weekly paper from her
town. Among the social items the follow.

Miss Mary Hansen has gone to Chicago to
spend the winter. Miss Hansen is an acknowl-
edged belle in the leading circles Of Sawdust

Mary waited until her employer had had time
to read the personal and then she said with
wthering scorn:
''As have always been accustomed to going
with the best in my town, and as I don't believe
you ever have your name the society page OF
the Sunday papers, guess can't afford to stay
with you"
