Dr. Geaney, of Greenmeadows Seminary, has been in charge. In notifying the arrangements, Father Lane took occasion to thank his Grace Archbishop Redwood for facilitating Dr. Geaney coming here. . V St. Mary’s Church has been enriched by the gifts of, several generous parishioners. A fine set of large candlesticks and cross for the high altar were given by Mrs. H. Martin, and are fine specimens of the brass-

workers’ art. A procession canopy of artistic finish and design was presented by Mr. D. J. Barry. ;On arecent Sunday Father Lane thanked . the generous donors for their handsome gifts. . - S./ "
