Hector Richie at the morn ing service announced that at , the con clusion of the service a requiem mass would be said for the soullof Daniel Fountain who was drowned :in Lake Michigan in the latter part of May. The announcement of the requiem mass was apparently such a pronounced step toward Bomaolsm as to cause even the parishioners of the church of the Ascension to rebel who had ; hitherto stood by the paator and one-half of the congregation left the enure a; in the meantime at the request of the widow of Daniel Fountain the celebration ef the mass has been postponed for. a few days.
