THE PER ETTA CONFERRED, Cardinal Gibbons Invested with his New Honors. Baltimore, "June '30. Not since the scarlet beretta was conferred on Card inal McCloskey in St. Patrick's Church, New York, ha a cathedral m this country witnessed such an imposing ceremony as the one that; has just taken ilc at the CHthedrnl here. It was an event to - which devout Catho lics throughout the land have looked forward for many weeks. The con ferring of the Holy PopeV approval upon the chosen head of Church m this land is an act tbat has attracted the eager interest of millions. The ceremonies to day were witnessed with the gre itest interest by a vast throng that had filled the Cathedral long be fore 10:30 o'clock, the hour appointed for the solemn service to begin. The ceremony was an imposing and mag nificent dejMonstration, and tbe event will live forever in the memory of every one present. At an early hour this morning there ASCUIUKU at. iuv . - dinal. on North Charles street, the Archbishops and Bishops, who had accented the invitation to be present at the ceremony. Monsignor Straniero, the papal ablegate, and Count Stahis las . Mtrceiali, .of the Pontifical Noble Guard; the Rev. James McCallen, of St. Mary's Seminarv, master of cere monies; Rev. Dr. John VS. Foley, in charge of arrangements;1 the Most Rev. Peter R. Kenrick, Archbishop of St. Louis, apostolic delegate to confer the beretta; Most Rev. John J. Wil liams, Archbishop of Boston, celebrant of high pontifical mass, and Most Rev. Patrick J. Ryan, Archbishop of Phil adelphia, selected to preach the ser mon. The other Archbishops present were Most Revs. Michael Hess, of Milwaukee: F. X. Leray, of New Or igans:- Edward Charles ! Fabre, of Montreal; J. J. Lynch, -of- Toronto; Patrick A. Feenan, of Chicago; Mich ael A. Conig.n, of New York; Wm. H. Elder, ot Cincinnati, and W. H. Gross, ot Portland, Oregon. The procession left the ball prompt ly at 10:15 and proceeded along Sara- '- t-t .i i i . m ii toga, to uarnearai street, wr rausuu to Charles, to Mulberry to Cathedral, and thence into the edifice.' As the orocession passed the Cardinal's resi dence the Archbishops, Bishops and others loined in line. Attne head o the procession marched a, processional crossbearer, and then came the stu dents of St. Charles College in cassock and surplice, the seminarians from St. Marv's. the reerular and the secular clergy, the Monsignor, the mitred ab bots, the Bishops, the Archbishops, the apostolic legate, with Father Lee as his- assistant pries'- and the fxev; Dr. Folev and Father Hennessey of St. Louis as his chaplains, the Noble Guard, with the secretary to the Able gate on his left, the Cardinal with the Ablegate on his left, and attended by his assistant priest, Monsignor Mc Colgan, and his deacons of honor, the Very Rev. A. L. Magnien and the Rev. B. J. McManus, and the train bearers of the Cardinal. The Catholic orders acted a$ an escort for the pro cession. Thej Catholic Knighthood were divided 'into three divisions in charge of James Wallace, Grand Com mander; Michael UUJea, John Cun ninsrhan and Anto Schalitzki. By the time the hands of the clock in the tall belfrv of the Cathedral pointed to the hour of 9 -the streets in the vicinity of the church were literally packed with a homogenous mass of Americans, al anxious to see the religious proces sion, and, if possible, catch a glimpse of the highest Catholic dignitary in the country. The services of seventy five stalwart policemen were, however, equal to the task of maintaing a pass ageway m the middle, of the street. In the procession the Cardinal wore the scarlet skullcap which Monsignor Stra niero had brought from Rome and presented to him on the former's ar rival in Baltimore early last week Upon arriving at the sanctuary, the Cardinal seated himself on his throne the Archbishops and Bishops arrang inff themselves on either side of the altar'. Opposite the Cardinal was an other throne in which the apostolic legate Archbishop Kenrick took post tiont The noble guardsman Count Mucciali stationed himself at the left of the Cardinal, and upon the left o the Count was the Ablegate, near the table upon which was the beretta which the Ablegate had previously .brought to the sanctuary, and the documents from Rome had been placed. The music of the mass was rendered by a selected choir of sixty-four voices and was of a very high order, Rev Father Joseph Graf being the director "Haac Dies," sung at the offertory was composed especially for this occa sion by Mr. G. E. Stehle. Archbishop .Williams, attended by assistant priests, then celebrated the solemn Pontifical High Mass. After the gospel Archbishop Ryan preached the sermon. At the end of the mass the celebrant and his ministers retired to the sacristy and returned vested in rochet and cape, and occupied a' place in the sanctuary according to his rank of seniority. . Archbishop Kenrick vested in an aimice, stole, cape and mitre, on the invitation of the master of ceremonies, proceeded to the plat form of the altar, attended by his chaplains, and took a seat at the epistle side, facing the people. The Rev. Foley, srointr to the table received from the Ablegate the apos tone brief of delegation, which he presented to Archbishop Kenrick, who returned it. saying in Latin, '"Let it be read." Dr. Foley read the brief in Latin and in English. ' The Ablegate, , accompanied by his secretary, then 1 represented to Archtishop Kenrick the brief of ablegation, which was handed back in the same manner and read by the secretary, the Rev. Father Brandy, of Woodstock. After the brief had been read the Alegate ad dressed in Latin both the Cardinal and the apostolic legate, and at the end of the address the choir of semi narians sang "Let us Pray for Our Holy Father Leo.'' Monsignor Stra niero, the papal Ablegate, taking the beretta from the secretary, handed it to Archbishop Kenrick, the apostolic legate, who placed it on the altar, acknowledging the presentation. The beretta is a square cap, with project ing corners rising from its crown. There is usually a tassel in the middle, where the corners meet. It is worn on ordinary occasions.4 " The red hat, which the newly-elected Cardinal has to go o Rome in person to receive, is worn twice only when he receives it and when he dies. The vzucchetto, or skull cap, which is brought to an ab sent Cardinal by the noble guardsman, is usually presented to him in private. On the invitation of tho Ablegate the Cardinal kneeled at the feet of Arch bishop Kenrick, and received from his hands the beretta. Rising, he ascended the altar, and the others having. with drawn to their places in the sanctuary, he addressed Archbishop Kenrick in atin in acknowledgment ot the honor received and afterward the people in English. After intoning the le ueum the Cardinal K retired to the sacristy where he' received' his scarlet vest ments, which he assumed for the first ime. .The vestments consisted ot the cassock, the cappa magna, the rochet, the cape and the beretta. ine cas 80ckis a close fitting garment, reach ing to the heels. The cappa magna is l long flowing vestment with a nooa ined with silk or fur according to the season of the year at which it is worn. The rochet is of linen with sleeves reaching to the hands. The length and closeness of the sleeves distinguish from the surplice. It takes aoout forty-five yards of material . to mase the outfit. Reappearing at the altar in his scarlet robes he sang at the end of the Te Deum the Prayer of Thanks giving and that for the Pope, after which he went to the platform of the altar and gave his blessing to the peo ple, and this ended what was a most impressive service. iue wcaawu eft the Cathedral in the order in wmcn it entered, and the large assemblage of spectators silently dispersed. VENTRILOQUISM. Real Secret of the Art of "Throw- ingr the Voice." . Ventriloiuial sounds are produced by means or me vocai organs aione. The expression, "talking down the throat," is "sometimes "used when al- uded to the. subject of ventriloquism, as well as "taiKing in tne stomaca. Neither conveys a proper; idea of the art, the first being only partly true, and the latter having no claim what ever to our attention. . Sometimes it may be found necessary to confine the sounds to,the region or the larnyx n order to procure certa u effects; the little service the stomach, or more properly the abdomen, is called upon to perform is in aiding the lungs by j muscular action. - The art is diveded into two parts ventriloquism proper and polyphon ism. The former compromises those imitations in which an illusion as to. remoteness is intended; .whereas, the latter means imitations of voices in different persons close at hand, cries of animals, ect. Most modern ven triloquists belong to that class. The ear is easily deceived with - regard to the sources of sound. Such noises are often heard as the beating of a drum, ringing of a bell, rumbling of a carriage, etc., and the listener is un certain at first as to their true direc tion. Jsut after a while, when the ear becomes familiarized with a par ticular sound, the location is easily determined, and it is not again readi ly cheated by the same sound under similar circumstances. So it is with ventriloquism. The performer chan ges the tone of his voice, distinguish ing it in many ways, and offering many obstacles to its free egiess by the tongue, teeth and lips, as the aforesaid sounds are obstructed in their passage by rows of buildings, etc., causing them to bound from ob ject to object until, when they reach the ear of the listener, they seem to come from any direction but the true one. TO PRODUCE ASTONISHING EFFECTS. Much stress has been laid by some ventriloquists upon the fact that it is possible to face an audience during their performances, and without be traying any perceptible movement of the lips or muscles of the tace. Such performances greatly detract from the success of their intended vocal il lusions by thus directing the atten tion of the audience, not to the sup posed sources of the sound, but to the real source, the ventriloquist himself. It is simply a challenge to' the . au dience to detect, if they can, whether the performer really does talk with out moving his hps. Some ventrilo quist claim to be superior to others upon the ground that they always race squarely to the tront; but while this is an easy matter, other and far more skilled performers frequently turn their backs to the audience, and very seldom present more than a pro file view of their faces. In order to produce astonishing effects, it is some times found necessary .for even the most proficient ventriloquist to con ceal himself altogether from the view of the audience. In every case where the ventriloquist faces the audience they will discover that his lips do move, all assertions to the contrary notwithstanding. It should at all times be the aim of the ventriloquist to divert the attention ot the audience from himself entirely. Of late years a large number of ven- trnoquists nave ;ome to the front each one being in most respects an imitator of his predecessor,. and their exhibitions consisting: arenerallv of a dialogue between two or more puppets ano ine periormer nimseir. such per formances are within the power of any person who has talent for mimi cry, a reasonable good voice, and the courage to face an audience. Prac tice will do it ail in a short time. Not so, however, with true ventriloquism, for no one can become a proficient in this art without devoting to it' much study and years of practice. ! It is essential that the student should have an ear so well attuned as to readily distinguish the different qualities of sound; he should also possess a voice of great flexibility, ranging in com pass from the deepest bass to falsetto, and his bump of imitation should be largely developed. All this does not imply that there should be any pecu liar construction of the vocal .organs, and any who assert that ventriloquists necessarily differ in this respect from other individuals either do so for a purpose or thereby expose their ig norance of the subject. REAL SECRET OF THE ART. The real secret "of ventriloquism can be very briefly explained, viz: 1 Ven triloquism is the imitation of sounds so that they seem to come from, a dis tance from the person speaking; or, the imitation of sounds as they are heard on coming from a distance. This is the whole I secret of the art, and the accomplishment depends upon practice and dexterity. . .. Any person possessing a good voice, sound lungs and a moderate amount of mimetic talent, may,1 with : perse1 yearance, acquire more or less profic iency in the ventnloquial art, accord ing to the time devoted to its study. The student should always copy after nature, either, familiar human voices or cries of animals. , Always talk during expiration instead of inspira tion, as some endeavor to do. btand or sit erect, expand; the chest . and in flate the lungs before talking in the ventriloqual voice. Select short sen tences and control the air in the lungs so As to have sufficient to finish' each one ' before taking another; breath. Take ample time between each ques tion and answer ; for breathing pur poses, and let the questions given in the natural voice be of sufficient length to allow time to fully overcome the fatigue which necessarily follows this manner of speaking. The student is advised in all cases relating to dis tant sounds to let the ear; be his guide as to tone, pitch, , loudness, etc., for he cannot be governed correctly by any fixed rules in such matters. The practice of listening to various sounds in the open air, and noting attentively their peculiarities, will in a short time enable the ear to determine with con siderable accuracy all that is essential for the study of ventriloquism. A great variety of sounds may be pro duced with but slight changes of the tongue and lips and their action upon the teeth. ,A little practice will, however, do more in this respect than long explanations or rules. The pro fessional ventriloquist requires great confidence and self-possession, with .a ready flow of small talk to keep up the interest. . .. j ''- It will probably appear strange to the uninitated when they are informed that the voice from, ,abovet the voice below and the voice at a j distance and on a line from the performer are pro duced precisely in , the same manner. The ventriloquist in either case simply directs the attention "of his hearers to the supposed source of the sound. U For such voices the vocal chords are contracted and a fine, dear tone pro duced, in loudness representing the distance. Any further written expla nations would be of no practical value in the study of ventriloquism. Ex perience has demonstrated that the art can be successfully taught, though the belief has generally been to the contrary. ' " " . !. ' OUR NEAll NEIGHBORS. Colombia, South Anienca,Trade and Education. New York, June 24. Charles D. Jacobs, United States minister to Co lombia, South America, arrived in this city yesterday. In a chat about Colombia and her relations with the United States he said : "There is lit tle to say concerning the commercial relations existing between the united States and Colombia. The subject. is limited for the simple reason that there are scarcely any commercial re lations existing between the two coun tries. Colombia carries on most of her trade with Germany, France and England, principally with the two former. She is little disposed to trade with the United States,and apparently the feeling is reciprocated. The Ger mans and French, and to some extent the English, on the contrary, are do ing ail in their power to cultivate commercial relations with her. In traveling through. Colombia one con tinually meets with German and French commercial agents. It is a rare thing to meet an American mer chant there. "As an example of the enterprise of the eastern continent, the Germans and French each have a direct line of steamers connecting them with Co lombia. These steamers touch at her ports two or three times a month. Not so with us, as we export very little to Colombia. I think we send some flour, and in Bogota I saw some patent med icine with American stamps. In re turn we import from her some fruits and lumber. "Colombia is a wonderful though undeveloped country, and American merchants would do well to create a trade with her. Her mines are now worked by primitive machinery, intro duced by the Spanish. The agricul tural implements are imperfect and insufficient. This lack would afford us, a chance to introduce American machinery. The petroleuminterest is not developed. One is obliged to pay $2.75 a gallon for the oil. All their hams are imported from England, and retail for $1 a pound. The land fan grow two crops of corn, while the su gar cane and wheat are excellent. Fruits grow almost wild. ' "The people regard us kindly. They look upon us not so much as allies as protectors. The country is just recov ering from a revolution, and still feels the shock. The better class of itu na tives are cultivated people, and the standard of cultivation is high. Bogo ta is called the Athens of Colombia, and I believe it is one of the centers bf education in South America. "I hope, much from the proposed Congress of the Am erican nations. I gave a copy of a pper containing the plan of trie. Congress to the acting President of the republic, Gen. Campo errano. He seemed much pleased, and hopes the undertaking will be i success." ; An Important Function Stimulated.

Mr. William Hunt of Vlneton, Autaupa CoJ, Ala., came to town to forward - his ticket, which drew one-fifth of the first capital prize of $75,000, amounting: to $15,000, in the Louisi ana State Lottery at New Orleans. He is a merchant and farmer of Autauga, and will be forty years old in September. He Bays he has been buying tickets lor the past twenty years, but has always won more than he spent for tickets.
