The services yesterday at the Cath
edral were carried out with all the
pomp and splendor with which the
Roman Catholic Church embellishes
its extraordinary ceremonies. The edi-
flee was crowded, many non-members
Of the Catholic church being in attend
ance.
The main altar was richly decorated
with palms, smilax and lilies while
myriads Of candles burned everywhere
The sanctuary was ablaze with cleo
trio lights which added much to the
scene. The services began with pro-
cession headed by cross bearer, acol-
ytes and the choir followed by the
assistants at the mass. The process
sion marched down the main aisle to
the door of the episcopal residence
leading into the church where Bishop
Monaghan in the purple robes of his
Office stood waiting. To the strains OF
the opening hyman, "Ecce Sacerdos
Magnus." sung by the choir the pro-
cession wended it's way to the sane
tuary, where Bishop Monaghan donned
his robes to celebrate the mass.
Vicar General Lyons was assistant
priest; Rev. Father Dougherty, dea-
con; the Rev. Father Waugh, sub
deacon; the Rev. Father MKenna was
master of ceremonies.
The sermon was preached by the
Rev Father Burke, the Paulist Father
who has been giving the course of SER
mons during the week. In the opin-
ion of many old members Of st. Pet
J ters the sermon given yesterday by the
eloquent preacher was one of the most
