REV. H. L. M'MENAMIN OFFICIATES AT ST. ANN'S CHURCH. Nawljr-Ordilned Priest Performs One of the Most Important Duties of His Vo cation for the First Time Yesterday. Impressive Sermon by Father Falllhee. At 10.30 o'clock yesterday morning Rev. Hugh L. McMenamin read his first mass in St. Ann's church. lie was ordained last week in Baltimore, Md., by Cardinal Gibbons, and arrived at his parents' homo in the Second ward on Wednesday evening. Father McMenamin has been a life long resident of St. Ann's parish, and an unusually largo number of the con gregation assembled at the late mass yesterday to honor the young priest by assisting at his first exercise of the holy office and to receive his blessing. The solemn and impressive ceremony of a high mass, than which thero is nothing in the whole liturgy of tho Catholic Church more sacred, was read by Father McMenamin with the strict uniformity that characterizes the mass throughout the world. It is ono of tho distinctive marks of the universality of the Catholic Church that in all ages and in all countries, from the frozen peaks of the north to tho torrid sands of tho south, the holy sacrifice of tho mass is, as it has always boon, one and tho same It is not permitted to the individual clergyman to change or alter one lota of Its ceremonies. In tills respect Father McMenamin's first mass was ,not different from tho rogular high mass In St. Ann's church every Sunday, and so well did the young clergyman bear himsolf through the difficult service that a stranger In tho church would be unable to tell whether the priest at the altar was per forming the holy sacrifice for the first time or celebrating the mass of his sil ver jubilee. The solemn ceremony, ever Impres sive, always soothing, epitomizing tho life of Christ on earth and renewing tho sacrifice of the cross, was made more solemn, If possible, by the extreme fervor of tho celebrant and the pious assistance of the vast assemblage, which filled tho church to the doors. Fathor McMena min sang the different parts of the mass In a strong resonant voice. His move ments wore characterized by calmnoss and deliberation, and his bearing throughout tho mass was Indicative of exceptional piety. Outside of a slight tremor In his voice and a barely-noticeable slownoss In his carriage, there was nothing to mark Father McMenamin as a newly-ordained priest. But thero was much to mark him as a pious, learned and able young man, whoso place among God's workers will undoubtedly be one of Immeasur able usefulness. Father McMenamin was assisted at the mass by Rev. William O'Donnell, of Scranton, as deacon. Rev. John J. O'Donnell, of Wllkesbarro, a cousin of the cclobrant and a fellow theological student, who will be ordained priest next month, acted as sub-deacon. Ed ward J. Gaffney, of Freoland, was master of ceremonies, while Frank P. O'Donnell, of Drifton. acted as thurifer, and Patrick J. Gallagher, of Freeland, and James Cunningham, of Jeddo, as acolytes. Rev. M. J. Falllhee, pastor of St. Ann's church, preached tho sermon. Father Fallihee's oratory, better known for doctrinal soundness and fatherly wisdom than for rhetorical polish, was laden with much feeling as he referred to the young priest and tho difficult work upon which ho Is about tn enter. "The priest's llfo," the speaker said, "is beset with trials and temptations. This young priest was born In tho parish and we claim him as our own. He is all our own, and we must pray for him, as wo know that he will pray for us." Fathor Fallihee's remarks were well adapted to thn occasion, and the affectionate man ner In which they wero dellvorod inade a telling Impression on the large congre gation. Tho choir sang the mass In excellent form. Mr. Moerschbacher rendered the "O Salutarls." Ills rich bass voice re sounded throughout tho church, and added Repressiveness to the ceremony. After mass Father McMenamin gavo his blessing te the people. Last evening 'at 7 o'clock he gaye benediction of the Blessed Sacrement. Next Sunday Father McMenamin will deliver the sermon at the 10.30 o'clock mass at St. Ann's church. Fathor McMenamin's entry Into the Catholic priesthood is tho happy con summation of his youthful dosires. Ho Is the son of Mr. and Mrs. Hugh Mc- Menamin, and was horn In South Hoberton on September 11, 1871. Ho attended tho public schools In Foster township for a few years, and later worked somo time at Highland No. 1 colliery. At the age of 111 he entered Blootnsburg normal school, and studied there one term- Afterwards, determining te study for the Church, ho wont te St. Charles' col loge, Elltoott City, Md., an Institution devoted exclusively te eduoatlng young men for the priesthood, and remained FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, JUNE 25, 1900. thero three years. At the expiration of this period his health was somewhat im paired, and it became necessary for him to seek a change of climate. He then went to Sacred Heart collego, Den ver, Colorado, and spent three years there, finishing his classical course with high honors. Father McMenamin pursued his theo logical course during ono yoar at the Grand seminary, Montreal, Canada, and for the last two years In St. Mary's seminary, Baltimore. He has been adopted by Bishop Matz, of the diocose of Denvor, Colorado. After a short vacation and a much-need ed rest from his recent arduous labors in tho final preparations for his ordina tion, he will go west to take up his priestly work. Father McMonamin's elevation te tho sublime dignity of the priesthood is a matter of groat consolation to his parents, and is also a source of gratifi cation to his numorous friends and ac quaintances. When Father McMenamin goes west, tho diocose of Denver will be enriched by one more learned and pious priest. The noble bearing that is characteristic of tho true clorgyman and tho stately demeanor of tho divine vocation, fit themselves to Father McMenamin's per sonality with a charm that is irresist ible. Tho poople of St. Ann's church rejoice in sending among their brethren of the west a young man who will do honor to tho parish and bring glory to tho divine work in which ho has electod to spend his life.

Breaker Guards Shot Two Miners at the Fernwood Colliery. The striking miners of the Fernwood colliery were led into an alleged riot Friday morning, at Yatesville, near Wilkesbarre, In which over a hundred shots were fired. Two of the strikers were shot. It is claimed they attacked ono of the non-union men, and, tho armed watchmen at the breaker coming to his assistance, a brief but stubborn battle took place. Tho watchmen, armed with rifles, stood at the top of an Incllno and firod at the strikors. Thero has been trouble at the mine for some weeks past, growing from the efforts of the strikors to persuade tho nun-union men from going to work. They have gathered nearly every morn ing along the roads leading to inlnos and have porsuaded sevoral moil Into quitting work. Tlio company has been endeavoring to operato tbe mine with what fow men It could get and lias been obliged to keep pump runners and firemen at work to provent the mine being flooded. It is these two classes of workmen that the strikers aro anxious to prevent working, and their loss would cause groat damage to the company. Friday morning about fifty of them as sembled at a point near tho breaker to provent William Ifolleran, the head pump runner, from going to work. Whon Ilolloran appearod ho was sur rounded. Thoy asked him not to go to work. He tried to push through the crowd, but was held. Then ho started toward* his home, but as soon as he was clear of tho strikors ho tnrnod and dashed for tho breaker. They followed shouting. Hollcran tired at thorn but hit no one, and tbon the guards at the mino, hearing tho shooting, scramblod down the culm banks to protoct him. The guards had rifles and a volley of ten shots stopped some of tho leaders of the crowd. Tho rifles brought down two of tho strikers In the front rank—Joseph C. I'azzillo, who was knocked sensoless by a ball which grazod his head, and Joseph Santo, who fell with a bullet through his log. Others were frightened Into running away, one with a hole In his hat and another through his sleeve. The fall of tho two men and the re treat of some of tho others resoltod in the strikers drawing olt after tho fusil lade bad lasted a few minutes, and the watchmen then withdrew to tho breaker, while tho officials at once put extra men on guard and notified Shorlflf Harvey of the attack. Tho sheriff sent several deputies to tho sccno. Twonty-two warrants wore Issued for the strikers and thoso will be sorved by Sheriff Harvey. Joseph Santo, ono of tho strikers who was shot, had William Ilolloran arrested Friday night on the charge of shooting with Intent to kill. Santo claims Hollcran Is the man who shot him. There was no hoarlng, as Santo could not leave tho hospital. Hollcran gave hull. PERSONALITIES. Rev. Francis J. Mack, of St. Ann's; Rev. Francis Kelly, of Eckley, and Rev.
