MINNEAPOLIS.
Pro-Cathedral: Mass will be cele-
brated every week day, during Lent, at
the old Immaculate Conception church,
in the heart of the wholesale district,
at Third Street and Third Avenue
North. Each day at 1910 Mass will
be said. This will afford a great op-
portunity to those who find it impos-
sible to leave their offices for any
length Of time, and besides there are
hundreds of people who dearly cherish
the memory Of the old church who will
be glad of the opportunity to attend
again. Tell your friends and ask your
non-Catholic friends to accompany
you.
The ladies OF the parish will have
the use of the new gymnasium every
Monday evening. This will be hailed
as good news by the ladies, as here
tofore they did not have an Oppor-
tunity Of enjoying physical exercise
at any gymnasium, but since the new
Pro-Cathedral club rooms have been
so el5tboratefy@ fitted up, tIrere-Sis no
question but what Monday evenings
will become very popular with the Ia
dies of the parish.
The Rosary Society will hold it's
regular monthly meeting Wednesday
afternoon, February %, at half past
two o'clock in the school building. The
sacred concert given last Sunday even
ing by the choir, under the direction
of Edward P. Joncas, the new direc-
tor, was a splendid success. There
was large attendance of music low
ers, who were impressed by the re-
sources of the choir SO rapidly devel-
oped under Mr.. Joncas' tutelage. The
pastor, Reverend Thomas E. Cullen,
addressed the audience on the subject
of Church Music at the close of the
first part of the program. The orches-
ira contributed much to the merit of
the program.
Church of the incarnation: The sac
red concert given Sunday evening,
February Is, in the Incarnation
Church, brought together a large
number of the parishioners and
their friends. The program was rather
brief, but we'll balanced and varied.
The selections We're well calculated to
stir religious emotions; while the ar
fists who participated showed in their
department and, for the most part,
even in their dress, a delicate sense of
the reverence and modesty due in the
sacred edifice wherein the concert was
given.

meeting Of the Senior Literary So
ciety, the following officers were in
stalled for the third quarter: Presi-
dent, James keenan,; vice-president,
Fred Boyce, critic, Gerald Walsh; sec
rotary, Cyrus Rice; treasurer, Merritt
Ribble; marshal, Henry Just. An in
teresting debate on the question,
Resolved that the sale of intoxicating
beverages in Minneapolis be pro-
hibited by law" resulted in victory
for the affirmative team. The speak
ers were Cyrus Rice, John Rymar-
chick, and Edward McMullin for the
Affirmative; and Leo Skibinski, John
Sheehan, Emmett Schiller for the
negative. While all these young
men did excellent work, Cyrus Rice
and Edward McMullin proved particu
| larly strong as debaters.
