than they were at the time the church
was dedicated. The interior effect,
when completed, Will be one of the
most beautiful OF any church In this
city. The organ, which was badly
crushed by heavy stone blocks falling
and will be in tone at the time the
church Is ready to be reopened. Con-
siderable work will have to be done to
put the beautiful stained glass win
dows on the north side, that were more
or less shattered by the explosions OF
dynamite, in repair. Those on the
south side all escaped damage. The
heavy stone front has been put in good
condition again. and that portion which
fell has been replaced with iron in ex-
