ALTAR CONSECRATED
SERVICES THIS MORNING AT ST.
PATRIcK's CHURCH.

Solemn services OF conservation were held
| this morning at ST. Patricks Roman Cath
| Ollie Church. Rev. DR.. D. J. Stafford, pastor.
when the officiating ecclesiastic was Right
Rev. A. A. Curtis. vicar bishop of the Bal
timore diocese. Assisting him were the
clergy of st. Patricks and a number from
Holy Cross College, near the Catholic Uni
versity. The main altar of the church was
finally and completely consecrated the
service being carried out with signs and
ceremonials symbolic OF Catholic faith and
practice. Rev. Thomas E. McGuigan, as
sistant pastor Of ST. Patricks, was master
of ceremonies.
The ceremony began at O. clock and was
without music. The incidents In connec-
ton with a ceremony of conservation are
many, but each has it's distinctive place
and Importance and is equally eloquent OF
pious Intent and motive. Every Roman
Catholic altar contains relic of some of
the great saints, and II remained for this
occasion that the altar at St; Patrick.s
should be invested with one. The disposi-
ton of the relics for the main altar this
morning, which are of Saints Redemptus
and Redempta, ts made in specially pre-
pared sepulcher on the altar, and the relics
were inclosed in a metal case, which bore
the seal OF Bishop Curtis and a parchment
In his handwriting testtfying to the genu-
ineness of the relics. and also as to the
cation of divine blessing on the altar the
sepulcher was closed the marble being set
| in plaster of paris by the bishop.
Followed by Mass.
There Is rule in connection with the con-
secration of an altar that mass should be
said on it Immediately following the con-
secration service. Bishop Curtis said the
| mass at St. Patrick's this morning.
The main altar at St. Patrick's Church,
consecrated this morning. was erected
about seven years ago II Is of Gothic
architecture has three beautifully carved
white onyx pilasters and columns The
BILE At the front of the altar, beneath the
table. Is a bas-relief representing The
Last Supper" by Leonardo da Vinci. On
each side of this are onyx pilasters eight
cen and a half inches long supporting the
table. To the right and left of these are
panels of solid marble. Above the table,
on the gospel side of the altar. is bas-
relief representing the sacrifice of Melchise-
dec. On the epistle side is representation
of the gathering of the mama in the des-
ert, also in bas-relief. The tabernacle is OF
marble and has a beautiful bronze door
deliberately decorated with figures of angels,
roses, etc. The spires are Illuminated by
electric lights, producing a beautiful ef-
feet. The altar is thought to compare very
fay orably with the representative shrines
of the Catholic churches of Washington.
Bishop Curtis will consecrate the altar In
the chapel at st. Vincents Orphan Asylum
tomorrow morning.

oRAToRIo OF ELIJAH"
Well Sung by Teachers College
Choral Society of Howard University.

MendeIssohn's oratorio Elijah was sung
last evening at the First Congregational
Church. corner 10th and g streets north
west, before large audience by the Teach
ers' College Choral Society OF Howard Uni
versity. To say that those present enjoyed
the music is putting 1t mildly. for through
out the masterpiece the music was OF the
first-ciass order. Lulu We're Childers was
the conductor, and during the entire even
ing she carried the large chorus along with
perfect ease. Henry T. Burleigh of New
York. who has remarkably fine baritone
voice, took the part of Elijah and in the
difficult solo work his singing was emil
nently satisfactory. Particularly well done
was the opening recitation when the words
of Elijah are las God the Lord of Israel
liveth, before whom 1 stand there shall
not be dew nor rain these years but ac-
cording TO my word" The singing of Sid
ney Woodward, the tenor was good and
ELECTED applause. The soloists were: Altos
Marie James and Lulu We're ChiIders; So
pranos, Nettie Murray and Pearl Barnes:
baritone, Henry T. Burleigh of New York.
and tenor, Sidney Woodward. The accom-
panists were Melville Charlton of New
York, organist; Beatrice Lewis. pianist and
Charles Y. Harris. assistant pianist. The
choruses were all sung with remarkable
precision and volume. The proceeds OF
the oratorio went to the benefit of the mis-
sionary fund of the Christian Endeavor
Society.

TO BE REMEMBERED.
Houses on 18th Street Near Lincoln
Park Affected

At a hearing before the Board of Commits
sioners yesterday afternoon several resi-
dents OF the vicinity OF Lincoln Park,
northeast and southeast. appeared in adj
vocacy Of the proposition to renumber
houses on 18th street north of Lincoln
Park to B street. and south of the park to
B street and Tennessee avenue. The present
system of numbering in these squares has
left the houses with such numerical desig-
nations that even residents of the vicinity
are liable to be confused, and examples
were cited where units and hundreds are
united In the same block. On Tennessee
avenue the first house is numbered Il" and
in the middle of the block comes 100" and
when the block ends at B street another
hundred is taken up, making in all three
changes In numbers.
1t was declared that, with one or two ex-
cepions. the residents and property owners
are In favor of having some change made
In the interest OF uniformity, the only
question arising being whether all hun
dGedS or all units should be adopted. Sat-
1shed, though, from the various express
sions of opinion the Commissioners stated
their belief that houses in the blocks in
question should be numbered, beginning
with 100, and intlmated that an order
would be issued to that effect in the near
future.

The two-story frame dwelling known as

WOLF CUBS AT ZOO.
Recent Death of Camel Due to Cancer
Of the Liver.


Several wolf cubs have Just been re-
ceived at the National Zoo from Wyoming.
In referring to this latest invoice DR.. Baker
says that the wolves have Increased so
rapidly in that part of the country, espe-
ctally in the forest preserves, that the au-
thorities are endeavoring to devise some
means Of discriminating them. They roam
about in packs and have recently COM
mitted many depredations upon cattle and
sheep.
The cubs that have Just been received at
the zoo were dug out of their dens by men
in Wyoming who We're on a wolf hunt, and
who killed the grown animals and shipped
the young ones to this city. They are of
the varieties known as prairie wolves and
gray wolves. The suggestion has been
made that sportsmen in the east who are
fond Of wild animal hunting would enjoy
fine sport in assisting the authorities OF
Wyoming and the contiguous states to
exterminate the wolves that infest that
section,
DR.. Baker called attention to a report
that one of the zoo camels died recently OF
a broken heart.
why that camel died Of cancer of the
liver" he said
DR. Baker added that the animal had
been failing for long time, and If there
was anything like unrequited love In the
case 1t must have originated away back
when the animal was trudgng across the
hot and arid desert or feeding upon the
heritage of the distant tungles. Only the
skull OF the animal will be turned over to
the National Museum authorities, as that
institution Is already overstocked with
stuffed camels.
Another recent death at the zoo was that
Of a loon.
The saying, as wild as LOOM is a true
one" Dr. Baker remarked. This bird is
SO wild it Is difficult to keep it in cap
tivity."
