remark* for our beueit. When b* had

Oo Wednesday evening at L80 Holy
Weak services began with tbe 2VufW„
Of all tbe service* ia the Catholic
Ohiueb tboa* duriug Holy Weak cod
me mors lire of tlie Fsasloe and Death of
Onriat, are tbe moat aolemn and Im
pressive. To many of tbe buys Uimo
services were oew, ead having never
before wltneeeed them they were meet
Interesting. To give the readers of
Tub OazrrrB some idea of tbesoleaa
grsudeur of these oarcmoules with
which tbe Cslhollo Church recall! to
the minds of the fsltbfol, the soul
stirring events which took plus oo
Oslvsiy nearly 1000 years ago, we will
give s brief deaorlption of them. The
Tenebrae Is aaetvioe held on Wednes
day, Thursday sod Friday. It localled
the office of tha Tenting from that
Cello word which sign idea thvkueu-,
for toward tbe end, all the lights are
extinguished, both to express the deep
est mourning, and In memory of the
darkness which covered tbe whole
esrtb at our Lord’s crucifixion. It
oonstsU of tho matins and lands for
Thursday, Friday and Saturday, anti
cipated tbe evening forogojnr. In a
triangnlu candlestick, placed lo lbs
centre of the sanctuary, areaetStteen
candle*, seven on each aide, and one on
top. The candles oo each side ate put
out, one after every psalm, beginning
from tbe lowest toward the gospel side,
then on lbs opposite. After these
fourteen, tbe while candle on the top
being left burning, whilst tbe can tide
of Zacfaary 1* sung, tbe six candles on
tbs altar are pat out, one after each
verse. At the beginning of tbe verse,
after tbe oanlicle, the while candle is
taken down Iron tbe top of the trian
gular candlestick sod bid under lbs
altar, whilst Uis psalm Jlfuerei-e and
the prater are recited; after which It
Is brought out again. The noise which
Is made la the end, rep resects tbe
earthquake, and the splitting of the
rooks, in the cunvnWvs agonise which
Inanimate nature felt at the dsath of
the Hon of God.
For tbs offices duriug these three
days are s kind of fusers! obsequies,
which the Okureb pays to bar divine
Spouse nod Reds*user. The candles
represent tbe apostles and the disci
paw,—the extinction of tbeae lights,
their Sight or mourning, hot the can
dle on tbe top of the triangular eaodle
etlok represents Christ himself; on
whloh account It Is oolv hid under tbs
altar, and again produced, to rfiow
that Christ was only hid In the aspel
ebre for a short lime, aud then rose
"gale. One thing especially must be
noted In connection with tbe office of
Tencbra,—the Lamentation* of Jere
mlsb. suns after the Arst aoetume, or
division of three psalms, in matins.
Thfee portions of that feel idg elegy are
glvea to each day; being arranged In
such.exquisite harmony aa ravishes tlm
sene*, and sung iu an inflexion of an
cient and moat moving melody.

Im bvlilode guard of honor, whlah
alternately with others kept vigil at
tbo repository, la UM aftaroooo at
4J0 with grant sadness, tte oOoa of
Teaahraa waa again said.
Oa good Friday morning thoaarviam
wens very long, laatlag for two boors.
There Is one part of tteoOoa per
formed on good Friday wbleb goes
much boyoad anything imaginable in
dramatic power and sublimity of ran
rraaatatlvo sflsst. Wa allude to tte
ohanUng of tte Paaalon acaordlngta
St. Jobe. Thl* la porformsd by three
Interlocutors, la the habit of daaoooa
who distribute among tteuaslvsa tte
part* aa follow*;—Tte narrallva la
given by oos la a strong mealy isoor
voles; the words of our Savior am
chaotad in a deep solemn baas, sad
whatever is aaokna by noy other psraco
Is given by tte third la a high oon
trailo. This at onon prod nose a dram
■ua meet; aeon pan not its particular
codoM*. of old, simple, bat rich oiiaat,
aultad to the character raprasanUd,
tad worthy of aoeloat tragedy. That
of Ua narrator Is door, dMUact, and
•lightly mod slated, that la which or
dinary Interlocutor* apeak, sprightly
ted almost bordering upon colloquial
familiarity; but that In which our
Harter's word* are attend is slow,
grave and meet solemn, beginning low,
and ascending by fall tones, then gen
tly varied In rich though simple a adu
lations, till It ends by a graceful nod
expressive cadence, modllsd with still
greeter offset in inUragetory phrases.
Tbe uaveUleg of the arose U a very
lmpremlvB ceremony. Tba crucifix la
uncovered, and thon exposed to tbo
veneration of tbo faithful. Oo this
day tba Maas of Ua PraaaoetUad la
celebrated, following which Ua altar
t» directed presenting a moat desolate
and mournful appeoranoe. Ia tba
evening Ue offloa of Uw Taoabraa waa
again said, and tbe Lamentations of
Jeremiah moat exceptionally wall ren
dered In a trio by tier. Fathers Mel
chior, Benard and Ignatius, their voices
blending stoat harmoniously.
Oo the morning of Holy Satardaj
tbe Easter Bra and Baptismal Water
ware solemnly bleared, after which
High Mass was celebrated at 8 o'clock.
At the UlorU tho organ pealed out In
•ireUtov tones of JobiUtkoa, and all
the holla ware sat ringing at once, hav
ing a great effect of Joyful acclama
tion.
At five o’clock p. m. Solemn Ponti
fical Benediction was given by his
Lordship tba Bishop. Tbe High Altar
was beautifully decorated with all
kinds of flowers and wreaths, the
atatuaa all unvallad. Tba Altar waa
resplendent with flaming wax esodlss.
Tba choir waa augmented by the Col
lege Orchestra for this occasion, and
rendered soma flea music. Tbe final
march re tho people left the ehnrch.
was indeed a treat. It made tho
w.alls ring wiih martial melody.
Ess ter Sunday dawned bright and
warm, all nature seeming to rvjoleo
with monk led tn tho Resnrraatlos of
Our Lord, oo this anniversary of His
rising from Ue grave. Tbe Stu
dents pat an extra ourl to tbalr hair,
and polish to their shoes today, In ex
pectlon of a large crowd of people
from the neighboring towns and vil
lages, who every year on Easier Sun
day honor tba community with Uatr
preseooe at Church. From about 8
o’clock they came pouring lo, soma In
buggies with fair onmpanlooa, others
on horseback, and vet more oa wheats.
Tbe rood at the and of Ua compos wee
turned into a regular comping grousd
for the Uae bslsg. At 9:80 Ua hall*
rang for church. The visitors waited
outalda until Ue Collate boys, and the
young I ad ire from Ue Cos vent ware
seated sod than they mitered Um
church. Every aoel was filled, sod
Ua rear of Ua ehurwh was thronged.
Tba Orchestra then playad "IKe
Afart/t of Uv. Priests" by Mendelsohn,
while the Bishop with attendant prireta
and acolytes fully vested for Ua grand
Pontifical High Masse*. After the
iioepei toe tu. mat. man op pruCMt
In a very powerful and coovinolng
manner from tbe text: “lie lv rltao;
He to not here.” HU explanation of
the foot that osleoa Christ had indeed
riven from tbo dead, nor faith la vain,
waa cUaroota itself, and bo pr noted ad
to ihow bow tbo Irlng spirit waa
