Ceremonies In Connection With tLe Event
at St. Mary's Place, Providence.
A 1K0ST REALISTIC TABLEAU
Given by a Number of Little Boys and
Girls Statue Crowned by Little
Maurice Sullivan Rev. N. J. Mc
Manus Delivered an Eloquent Ad-
dress, During Which He Explained
the Meaning of the Ceremony.
The annual ceremonies in connec
tion with the coronation of the statue
of tho Blessed Virgin were held lust
night nt St. Mary's place, Providence.
They were very interesting and wero
witnessed by several thousand psrsons,
massed in William street in front of
St. Mary's place. It derives the name
from tho statue which is located be
tween Holy Rotary church and the
residence of Kov. N. J. MeManns, the
pastor.
At 7.20 o'clock a procession of the
children who participated in the cere
monies, made its appearance in its pas
sago from the school, where it
formed, to the statue. In the lead was
Muster Frank Bell, bearing a tray car
rying the wreath of May flowers to
crown the status. At his side was lit
tle Mamie Sullivau, daughter of Doc
tor J. J. Sullivan, who was selected to
place the crown upon the Virgin's
head.
Then earns in colutnnB of twos, boys
in kuickerbockeis and white waists to
tho number of 150, marshalled by a
corps of fourteen boys, attired in pink
waists. On the right breast of each
marshal was a red cross and on his head
a turban of light colored fabric, simi
lar to those worn by the crusaders.
Following in one continuous proces
sion were over 300 girls, dressed in
white with black saihvs, their ages
rauging from 7 to 10 years.
OKOUPINO THE CHILDREN.
The procession marched by the statue
along tho walks of the spacious grounds
and countermarched, the girls forming
around the statu in circular tiers and
the boys occupying the main walk
from the street to the statae in single
file.
Ia the rear an organ was placed to
accompany the childron in hymn sing
ing, and around it wore gathered the
members of the Blessed Virgin's and
Angels' sodalities and the members of
the church to assist in the Bingiug.
Miss Annio Bell was organist.
1 he combined chorus of the members
of the sodalites, the choir, and the
children, forming one great choir of
five hundred voices, at precisely 7:30
began tho chanting of the Litany of
Loretto.
It would be difficult to imagine a
more iuFjiiring scone than the one pre
sented, as the swelling of the notes of
the anthem rung forth on the cool
evening air. The spectators swayed in
untson with the rising aud fulling of
the mighty choras.
After tho last note of the Litany
faded away, the boys nnd girls in turn
rendered dialogues appropriate to the
occasion. Prior to the act of crowning
the statnte, a tableau representing the
last night of a dying martyr was pro
duced. It was to potray the uconies
of a dying sonl, hunuted by evil spirits
and the snlntary and speedily effica
cious result when tho soul, beset by
demons, invoked the intercession of
Mary.
THE TABLEAU DESCRIBED.
On a dais set against tho wall of the
church some distance from the statue,
the tableau w.is given. Standing in
center of the platform, costumed to
represent a decrepit priest, who in bis
last night on earth wus supplicating
God to have mercy upon him. was
Master John Monin. Stephen G.ivin,
also attired as a priest, sat asleep in a
chair worn out with attendance upon
his dying colleague.
Taking advantage of his companion's
slumber, the aged martyr, tormonted
by evil spirit?, arose from his bed and
begged God to spare him the terrible
temptations. His prayer apparently
was refused, and at that moment ap
peared around him seven demons to
augment his misery and inveigle him
from tho right path.
The visit of the spirits of darkness
Imd nearly accomplished the purpose of
making the martyr despair, when a
ray of hope gleamed upon his mind and
lie awoke his sleeping companion, who
urged him to renewed prayer.
Both kneeled and tbe spirits disap
peared ; in their place when the prayer
was finished, stood ten angels, who
succored them with words of cheer.
Then n deep silence fell upon the en
tire assemblage, broken by the low
tones of the Ave Maria from behind
the statue. The music of the hymn
deepaned until it reached tho pitch in
which the litany was sung. Tho mar
tyr's struggle was over aud the angels
carried his sonl to heaven.
The work of those taking part in th$
tableau, although all of them are youn;,-,
was finished. Tho sisters deserve
congratulations for the capable result
of their training.
CROWDING OF THU STATUE.
A ladder wus hoisted to the top of
tbe statue and Mis.s Sullivan assisted
in climbing to the summit wh?re sho
plncoil the wreath of May flowers.
The pastor, It;v. Father MoManus,
then addressed the people. He re
ferred in praiseworthy language to tbe
work of tho children and then drifted
in bis discourse to the meaning ot tho
ceremony.
Ho said that as Americans we just
celebrated tho crowning of the graves
of our patriotic dead; on the Fourth of
July we do honor to onr Revolutionary
forefathers, and when we adoru Wash
ington's statue wo draw inspiration
that fits ns to meet any requirement of
self sacrifice in onr devotion to our
country's welfare. All Christians be
lieve in the Mother of God, and noth
ing can be too good that is
meant to honor her. It is by no moans
idolatry no more than is tho decoration
of soldisrs' graves or the tributes paid
to the memory of Washington.
The united chorus sang the Te Deuni,
und the evening curemonies wero con
cluded. The grounds wero brilliantly
illuminated with lights of variegated
color.
TWELFTH WARD ELECTION CONTEST.
Evidence of Fifteen Witnesses Taken by
Commissioners Yesterday.
Commissioners W. Guylord Thomas
and W. W. Baylor sat iu the arbitra
tion room of the conrt house yesterday
and took testimony in the Twelfth
ward contested election oass in which
tbe right of Common Councilman Mor
gan Sweeny to hold his office is con
tested by Heury W. Coyle, aud the
legality of Select Councilman James
Mauley's election is disputed by John
Kearney.
The complainants are represented by
Attorney D. W. Counolly, but owing
to t but gentleman's illness, Attorney
J. Elliott Ross acted in bis stead yes
terday. Attorney John F. Mnr pby
represents tbe respondents.
Fifteen witnesses were examined
during the day, the examination hav
ing reference to their naturalization
papers and taxes receipts. The hearing
was adjourned at 8.30 o'clock, and will
probably be resumed again next Satur
day. Attorney M. A. MoUinley acted as

FOR VIOLATING SUNDAY LAWS.
Offsnders Arraigned Before Alderman
Post for a Bearing.
Druggists J, H. Phelps, McGarrah &
Thorn is, Joseph Loewenburg, and D.
S. Ryan; cigar dealer E Moses, and F.
G. Waldner, eating hou koeper.were
uguiu bofore Alderman Post yesterday
on complaint of Rev. Mr. Dony for
violating tho Sunday laws.
The evidence against them was the
samo character thut haB been given in
the past cases against tn isa defendants.
Attorney George S. Horn put in a
plea of prior conviction in the case of
J. H, Phelps, and Attorney Fred R.
Stark in the case of E, Moses. Each
of these defendants went before Al
derman Fitzsimmons and paid $4 and
coslB iu the case brought against them.
Mr. Horn quoted a decision of Jus
tice Gordon of the state supreme court,
where action was brought against a
saloon-keeper in Montgomery recoutly,
on six different charges for the samo
day. Tbe dofendaut brought the mat
ter to common pleas court
on writs of certiorari, but the
judgment of the trial alderman was
stunned. I hen the mutter was
taken to the supreme court where the
lower court was reversed, Tho opinion
of the supreme court wus the basis of
argument by Mr. Horn, whoso logic
wub met by Col. F. S. Hitchcock for
Mr. Dony.
Tho uldermnti reserved his decision
until today. The other cases will not
bs disposed of until court passts on the
appeal of McGnrrah and Thomas.
