SILVER JUBILEE
CELEBRATED
AT ABBEY

1t seemed much to one, as though
whilst In the act of turning the pages
of modern book, the eye should be
suddenly arrested by coming across
leaf OF old world parchment, illam-
mated in wonderful colors OF gold
and cochineal after the art of the
18th century.
This truly seemed to illustrate the
impression made on the mind Of the
layman who attended the festivity
at St. Joseph's Abbey last Tuesday.
at Ramsay, when two very we'll
known fathers Of the community,
Very Rev. COLUMBIAN Wenszel. o. 8.
B., Prior, Of the monastery, and Rev.
Father Gallus Anderau. O. s. B.,
Procurator, were rendered an ovation
of their confreres and friends, in
honor of their silver jubilees, result
ing from TWENTY-FIVE years OF service
in the priesthood.
The celebration began with the ar
rival Of the morning train from New
Orleans, which brought out q mum
Der of distinguished ecclesiastics, in
cluding Very Rev. Leo Gassler, Vicar
General; Rev. J. B. Jeanard. special
representative Of Archbishop Blenk;
Fathers Nugent, Mahoney. Vincent
and other prominent New Orleans
clergymen. In the lofty and beeu-
tifully decorated chapel. ct the abb
hey, q solemn high mass was cele-
brated by Father COLUMBIAN, assisted
by priests who formerly had been
seminary students under him. A
feature of the service Was the rendt-
tion Of the inspiring Gregorian chang
by the seminary choir, consisting Of
nearly a hundred fresh, we'll trained
youthful voices. To this was addet
at the close Of mass by the eloquent
and venerable Father Siegbert, O..
IS. B.
Among members Of the laity VIII
were present at the function were
Messrs. H. J. Ostendorf, r. L. Au-
bert, A. %. Schwartz, John Mcmahon
w. D.. Molloy and DR.. J. r. Bouquet.
An elegant banquet was made the
means by which the good Fothers of
st. Benedict entertained their guests
in honor of the two jubilarians. Con-
spicuous in the assemblage was the
presence Of sad-eyed erect looking
man. whose garb suggested high Of
fee in church affairs. He seemed q
stranger In language and appear
ance. His manner was that of one
who took his pleasure sadly, and
whose heart was sick with the
thought Of exile. This happens to
be the Rt. Rev. Castellons, Cam
pecio, Mexico.

A negro was walking along the
street, few days ago, the proud pos
SCISSOR of four quarts of liquor in a
case of heavy paper, such as so many
seem anxious to display, when white
man rushed up to him and, with as
sumed anger in his voice, said:
"Look here, niger, what you mean
by carrying that liquor along the
street that way? The chief has sent
me to get it from you. Hand it over. y
The negro handed it over very re-
luctantly, and the white man took it
and vamoused. When the negro
went to 1.-The chief to see about it,
he found out the trick that had been
played on him.-Newberry Observer
