NEWS CORRESPONDENCE FROM KILN.
Interesting and Beautiful Ceremony at the Church
Of the Amunciation Rev Father Sorin's
Choir Present ON Occasion.
Kiln, July 6, 1907.

Kiln, July 8, 1907.
A grandiose and impressive ceremony
took place on Sunday, June 80, at the
Annunciation Church of the Kiln
namely, the first communion of 26 chill.
dren, the holy mass taking place at
o'clock, which was preceded by the pro-
cession of the children, who made their
entry into the holy temple at the sound
of the bell ringing out an invitation to
the faithful that the time had come for
the holy sacrifice, and the organ. touched
by master hand, sent forth melodious
strains with the execution of the cele-
brated Lords Prayer, which is sung in
every church of the United States and
which was composed by the well-known
priest-compeser of the South, Rev. R.
J. Sorin. The holy temple had been
decorated magnihcently; ferns in gar
land ornamented with profusion the
walls of the sacred edifce. The sane
tuary appeared like terrestrial para
disc, where myriads of lights heightened
the beauty OF the ferns and bouquets
which adorned the altar. In a word,
this artistic work was executed by the
Pastor and his assistant, Professor Ami
sete Vidarosaga. The mass of the Holy
Rosary was rendered by the celebrated
choir of De Lisle, one of the best on the
Mississippi Coast, which was brought
to the Kiln through the kindness of the
good young and distinguished gentle
man, Mr., Sylvestre Dedeaux. The choir
did great work that day and proved how
excellently it had been trained; for it's
rendering of several masterpieces was
perfect in every way. This was the first
time that the Kiln had heard such a |
splendid choir.
When the most Impressive moment
OF the holy communion drew near, the
children stood up at the signal and pro-
ceeded slowly and impressively with all
plety and fervor to the railing to receive
the Lord in their hearts for the first
time. Every one who witnessed the
sublimity of the imposing ceremony
was touched to the depths of his soul.
1t must be added that the sermon de-
livered by the sanity pastor, Rev. H.
Chauvin, was masterpiece of elo-
luence. It would haye made any one
remember the divine oratory of the
famous Lacordaire. The church, al
hough very large, could accommodate
'nly half of the crowd which had come
rom the neighboring cities of Pearling- q
on, Logtown, Bayou Cadet, Bayou La
'roix, Caesar, Sherie Dedeaux, Fenton
nd DeLisle and the cities of Bay ST.
louis, Pass Christian. Gulfport and a
Biloxi. This impressive ceremony con- q
luded with a procession of the children,
Vho, after their thanksgiving, returned,
eaded by their devoted pastor, to the a,
riest house, where little refreshment o.

Through the late winter and spring

slender form grew thin, and the rosy

FEAST LYNNE"

The remarkable prosperity and wonderful longevity attained by East Lynne" can be explained only by the fact that the story the play unfolds is intensely human. It will be seen at Polls tonight. Although number less dramas have been written in imi- tatlon of this excellent play, not one of them reaches the depths of feeling or sounds the note of human appeal as truly as does this dramatic picture of the joys and sorrows of the beau tiful, unfortunate Lady Isabel. To adequately portray the varying emo tions of this complex character is task requiring not only the charm of youthful beauty, but a marked degree of histronic ability as well. Popu- lar prices.

on Thursday evening, October 22,
 gives assurance that it will be most
 successful opening of the lpcal musi-
 cal season. The special feature of
 the evening will be the appearance of
 David Bispham, the distinguished
 baritone, who has never been heard in Waterbury before, and whose
 work, it is anticipated, will be rare treat. Ludwig W Hoffman, the New
 York Philharmonic society's premier 'cellist, will also appear. The salec- tions by the Euterpean quartette are now being rehearsed under the direc- tion of l. B. Clark. It was erroneous ly announced that the St Johns Musi- cal associat ton would take part in the concert. The association will contine itself to aiding the quartette in the disposal of tickets and other details, but will not sing. The tickets may be secured at the leading music stores. They cost 75 cents and $1.
