Active steps were taken, May 10, 1820, to secure the erection of a Catholic parish church east of the Capitol, St. Patrick's having been already established, and to this end a committee was appointed to re- ceive subscriptions for this object, among the members being Daniel Carroll of Dud- dington, William Brent, N. L. Queen and Edward Mattingly. Daniel Carroll of Dud- dington Manor donated the three lots on which the church was erected, at the southwest corner of 2d and C stree:s, though other ground adjo‘ning on the south = since been added to the church hold- ings. The Most Rev. Ambrose Marechal, third archbishop of Baltimore, appointed Rev. | Taucas, | O’Sullivaa James F. M. Lucas as the first pastor of St. Peter's Church, and he tock charge the 3d day of September, 1821. Father Lucas was born in the city of Rennes, France, was ordained priest in 1812, and throe years later emigrated to the United States. Dedicated to St. Peter. He said the first mass In the new church, October, 1821, and the church was dedicat- ed to St. Peter, prince of apostles, on the 4th day of November, 1821 brick structure, with a de, and had a shingle roof. . tev. John F. McGerry Was appointed the first assistant pastor of St. Peter's and continued to assist Father Lucas antl August 21, 1826. Its First Jubilee. The first jubilee after the opening of St. Peter's occurred in 1825, and Father wearing his cassock, surplice and a, marched at the head of the con- in procession to St. Patrick's Trinity churches, respectively. Father Lucas taught many of the youths of the neighborhood, particularly instruct- ing them in Chr: n doctrine, and his ™memory is ré the sons and grand- sons of that generation. He was received etown College into the ty of G1, 1829, and soon after became ant pastor of Holy nity Church, Georgetown, then, as now, connected with the college. Father Lucas died in Febru- ary, 1837, at Frederick, Md., having lived fifty-nine years and seven days. v. Matthew P. Deagle came to St. Pe- early in October » as Father first assistant pastor, and, when the latter entered the Society of Jesus, he became the second pastor. He was the un- cle of Rev. Jacob A. Walter, well remem- bered as a former pastor of St. Patrick's Church, and was of French-Arcadean des- ent. Father Deagle was born in Balti- more, September 15, 1800, and was ordained there in 1826. E Rev. James Hoener was Father Deazle's assistant in 1831, and, on his demise, be- came the pastor the same year, remaining until December, 1832. Rev. Father Peter S. Schreiber became pastor at the close of Father Hoener's term, but was succeeded shortly after by the Rev. P. Velmans, a Belgian, who was in turn succeaded by Father Joseph Van Horsigh, in July, 1834. Rev. Joseph Van Horsigh was born in Antwerp and commenced his theological studies in the land of his birth. When ne came to St. Peter's he called tho origiaal pastoral residence his “cow house,” and set about raising funds for the erection of a new home. The result was the construc- tion of the present edifice, to which some additions have been made. Father Van Horsigh was justly popular with his con- sregation, and his many virtues were in- seribed on a memorial tablet in the church. Rev. Edmund A. Knight, the next pastor, was a scholariy man, and attracted much attention to St. Peter's. He was succeeded by Rev. Francis E. Boyle, who had been assistant to Father Knight, and had been called by Father Knight “his boy Frank." Father Boyle afterwards became pastor of | St. Matthew's in this city, and when he did so the archbishop appointed Rev. Jeremiah to the vacancy in St. Peter's parish. Father O'Sullivan was one of the irost eminent priests who ever served at St. Peter’s. That this was true is attested by the fact that he died not long ago as the bishop of Mobile. The Present Pastor. The next pastor was the Rev. George W. Devine, who stayed two years, and was succeeded by the present pastor, Rev. James O’Brien. Rev. Father O'Brien was born ir. Virginia, but received his academi- cal education at St. Charles College, Elli- cott City, Md. He received his theological training at St. Mary's Seminary, Baltimore, and has served the following charges since his accession to the priesthcod: Lonacon- ing, Alegheny county, Md.; St. Thomas, Baltimore 2ounty, and St. Peters, Wash- ington, to which he was assigned 6, 1888. One of the first things O’Brien “id on coming to Ws was to erect 2 new house of wo and there are today few church edifices Washing- ton equaling It. St. Peter's day having oc- curred within the octave, the celebration tomorrow is also to be partly in his honor. THE SOCIAL WORLD Travel and Home Plans for the : Summer.

Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. ASBURY PARK, N. J., July 1, 1897. The fact that the Fourth will be celebrat- ed on Monday, and that visitors will be en- abled to enjoy a three days’ outing, with- out missing a business day, has done much to swell the throng that has poured into Asbury Park during the past few days. The advent of the warm weather has also done much to soften the hearts of the hotel proprietors and bring smiles to their faces. Until this week matters looked very blue for the majority of them. A complete reac- tion has set in. The crowd is here, and there is nothing less than an earthquake that can send them away before Septem- ber. Many of the big hotels will inaugurate the social season with a Saturday night ball, and nearly every hotel in the resort will give a dress hop on Moriday night. The exhibition of fireworks that will be given at the 5th avenue and the beach on Monday night of the 5th will eclipse every- thing in the line that has ever been given at this portion of the coast. The commit- tee appointed by the board of trade nave gathered a large subscription that will go up in colored fire and smoke. Dancing will commence at the hotels at the conclusion of the display. An Aquatic Display. Senator James A. Bradley ts planning matters so that summer guests may enjoy a pretty gquatic display during the high tides, and especially when the wind is strong from the east. Early this spring the waves washed out much of the sand along the base of the boardwalk, near the As- bury avenue pavilion. A heavy bulkhead was constructed here, and when the waves struck it they dashed into the air, attain- ing a height some times of thirty feet or more. Instead of building the boardwalk over the edge of the bulkhead so the dis- play would be spoiled, the planking has been carried out some distance, and has left a large space between the two walks, so that when the sea becomes rough the waves will have plenty of room to spread themselves in the air to the delight of the people on the beach. Senator Bradiey 1s as strong as ever in his determination to keep Asbury Park a prohibition town as far as possible, and will not even countenance the advertising of spirituous beverages in any way. The following are recent arrivais from Washington: Hotel Brunswick—Mr. and Mrs. D. W. Mertz, C. B. Aiken. Norwood Inn—Cladius Stewart. St. James—Mrs. O. B. Boyd. Ash- land House—P. M. Dubant and Mrs. Du- bant, D. L. Garvey. Hotel Columbia—Gil- bert Walden, . M. Crenshaw. Co! tnan House—Mrs, Ross Thompson and fam- ily. ss At Ocean Grove. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. OCEAN GROVE, N. J., July 1, 1897. The season at this famous camp-meeting resort, which opened so anspiciously last Sunday, is progressing pleasantly and qulet- ly, and the program that has been arrang- ed 1s crowded with interesting features. At the Auditorium on Sunday morning Mishop John P. Newman will preach the sermon, and in the evening an interesting address will be delivered by Rev. W. T. Smith of Iowa, the missionary secretary of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Independence day will be celebrated with an elaborate seryice In the Auditorium. The Declaration of Independence will be read by Prof. John Enright, superintendent of public instruction of Monmouth county, and the oration will be delivered by Mr. Edward C. Stokes. Patriotic songs will be sung by a full choir of voices trained for the season, under the leadership of Prof. John R. Sweeney. A party of violators of one of Ocean Grove's rules were called to account this week by one of the elderly policemen who preserve the peace of the resort. They were fuests at a small boarding house, and bad engaged an orchestra for the purpose of having a merry musical evening. While the fun_was at its height the policeman ap- peared and told them that it was 11 o'clock, and compelled them to discontinue the mu- sic and singing. Not only must all merri- ment cease at 11 o’clock every night, but no dancing is allowed at any time of the day or night. One of the new rules this season is that the bathers who pass from their homes to the beach in their bathing costume must wggr long cloaks that will cover them completely. Heretofore they have been allowed to walk backward and forth with no covering over their bathing costume. One of the most marked improvements among the hotels has been made at the Spray View, which has been completely re- modeled, both interior and exterior, and it is now one of the handsomest hotels in the Grove. The balconies have been widened considerably and are finished in true co- lunial styl The arrivals for the week include: Dorado—Mrs. Ford, Mr. and Mrs. El ct. Nesbit, Washington. Ocean View—C. W. Shiles and family, Fanny Shile: John Shiles of Washington. Inskip H. e—Geo. L. Ewalt, Miss Caroline Linsconet, Wash- ington. Centennial—Mrs. R. E. D:utmas, Washington. Se Long Branch. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. LONG BRANCH, N. J., July 1, 1897. cle fete which is to be given here on the afternoon of July 17 is attaining to unexpected proportions. Walter Hildreth, proprietor of the West End Hotel, who ts chairman of the committee in charge of the event, has his hands full these days at- tending to applications fer entries. All the principal attracticns of the pageant, such as the drills by the bicycle military corps, will be in line, and the illuminations along the route from here to Pleasure bay prom- ise to be worth, by itself, coming to the seashore to witness. Irving Brokaw of Princeton CoHege came down a few days ago and completed the or- ganization of the Norwood Park Base Ball Club. He will act as captain of the team, and as many games as possible will be played on the home grounds with only first- class clubs. The nine will be selected from the following players, several of whom were on the victorious college teams of the year: Pitchers, D. Darte of University of Pennsylvania, Capt. Keator of Yale and L Brokaw of Princeton; catchers, B. Will- jams and Titus of Princeton; first hase, Kelley of Princeton; second base, Smith of Princeton; third base, Quimby of Yale; shortstop, F.

J., July 1, 1897. ‘This resort takes its name from a beauti- ful sheet of water in the center of a tract of 500 acres of arable land.

This lake adds immensely to the beauty of the place and gives a lovely setting to the beautiful cottages that are built around it. ‘The famous old Monmouth House stands on a fine plateau of seven acres, lying be- tween the foot of the lake and the ocean and within 200 feet of both. The Mon- mouth long ago won a place among the ho- tels on the Atlantic coast which is second to none, and many of the guests of former years are returning to avail themselves again of its hospitality. ‘The most prominent arrival of the week at Spring Lake was Justice Field of the United States Supreme Court. With lis wife and family he will spend at least a month at this resort. He is stopping at the Sussex. —_— The Suburban Mail Service. AT GAY BAR HARBOR Where Summer Pleasures Are Thoroughly Enjoyed. A Charch-Going Commanity — §: Peo- ming Gowns—Well-Known ple at the Seashore. Special Correspondence of The Evening Star. BAR HARBOR, Me., June 30, 1897. More good news! Capt. Lyons of the dis- patch boat Dolphin stated yesterday, at Portsmeuth, that President McKinley will cruise along the New England coast this summer, touching at, among other places, Bar Harbor and Sorrento. “The navy, the President—<verything worth anything Is coming our way,” say the Bar Harborites. Bar Harbor ‘s par excellence the most church-going resort of the coast, Asbury Park not excepted. Not anywhere in New York or Washington during the height of the season can a more smartly costumed, generaJly “well set up” coreregation be seen assemb’ed than that for the 11 o'clock Episcopal service here. The altar at Saint Xavier's, the fashionable place of worship, was made beautiful Sunday in a purely idyllic spirit of decoration. A June green silk cloth lettered with gold spread it, and at elther side were vases of silver holding tall sprays of buttercups. Just before the sermon, at the time when little folk and in- valids are allowed to withdraw, half a dozen debutantes and half a dozen girls who had seen a sufficient number of gay winters to have had obliterated the habi of early childhood, left the building, avoid- ing criticism by tinkJing a lot of coin into the hand of the sexton, who stood at the entrance, to be used by him as their offe ing. If these girls feared being bored, they might have remained safely, for the se men preached by a young Princeton st dent, who is assisting the venerable pastor, would have appealed to th»m strongly. The collection plate evidenced the gener- osity of the summer visitors by a heaping pile of crisp bills that “carried out the color scheme of gre2n agreeably to the eye.” The Princeton student scored a tri- umph. “Really,” commented a power as she swept from the fice, “he expresses himself so well we must ask him to dinr Out on the portico when the people stood to walt for their carriages, it was pleasantly like the old- time country meeting house interval of the same kind. There were friendly handcla and gentle, but hearty exclama glad to see you; didn’t know y come.” “Heard you were not coming back this year, awfully pleased i isn’t true,” &e. Rey. Dr. Mackay-Smith is intimate friends cf the pastor of Saint Xavier's and conducts service there frequently when at Gar Harbor. Some Stunning Costumes, The Baroness Hengelmuller, with her husband, the Austro-Hungarian minister, has just passed by. It behooves me to i troduce the fact this way, for the baroness looked so stunning in a gown of cornflow- er—blue moire, a hat wreathed with pop- pies, and a fluffy parasol, that the minis- ter (who wore just a gray cheviot suit), ‘diplomatic personage though he be, must needs take second place. Speakin it may be of interest e, for Bar Har- are the gowns of Paris, Vienna and New York. One of the most stunning has a skirt of black satin with very narrow stripes of white. The waist of black chif- fon puffs, two inches wide, with insertions of gulpure the same width, was male as a full biouse ed at one side with a frill jace, and fritls edge the rather So ad st, 2 tof jet with aigi black and white is wo With it.

The bodice is of cream Russian lace laid cn violet satin, and over it a very short jacket cut to within three inches above the . is worn.

The collar of bright green s: edge of lace and the belt is a tw: satin ending in a bow in front. brimmed hat of gray straw with ying sides,” a grass green osprey feather, and cluster of violets and roses at ihe back beneath the brim, composes the headgear of the pretty girl who wears it. } Ai- meric Hugh Paget has among her dozens of murvelous bodices one of jacqueminot rose erepe, accordion plaited and loosely form- ed into a blouse that is most becoming to her graceful figure.

During the past six weeks the "97 Co- lumbia bicycle exhibited in the window of the Bon Marche has been admired and coveted by hundreds of Washington house- keepers, who hoped they might be so fortu- nate as to win the nevel contest inaugur- ated by this firm. The bicycle was offered by the Bon Marche as a first prize to the lady subscriber of the American Queen who furnished the best menu for family of five persons for one week, the total ccst not to exceed $10. The competition risulted in a large box full of menus, which were submitted to the judges, Miss Emma S. Jacchs, Miss Annie McDaniel and Miss Mollie Davis, teachers in the public cook- ing schools of the District. In order to in- sure absolute impartiality each menu sub- mitted was reguired to be signed by the number of the competitor’s subscription cards instead of the name. The contest closed at 6 o’clock Wednesday, June 30, and the examination required nearly the entire day of July 1. Yesterday it was found that menu No. 2630 had won the contest, and the "07 Columbia bicycle offered as frst prize. Menus Nos. 1171, 2617 and 1220 were adjudged to.be entitied to honorable men- tion. The selection of the winner was ro easy task, as the entire batch of papers ‘was remarkably weil planned, and showed thet a good large proportion of the house- keepers of Washington know how to select good food for their families. It was ascertained that the menu signed with the No. 2680-was the product of Annah Coleman, who called to receive her prize mornin, Tririty Church, La! at the Marche, itlemen: Allow me to herewith acknowledge of 1897 Coh offered as a prize in the Queen menu contest a.

The party, which consisted of Mr. A. C. Ruebsam of the hydrographic division of the Treasury Department, Mr. T. J. De Lashmutt of the Pennsylvania Raflroad Company and five ladies, all of whom are members of the Ballston Presbyterian { Church, rode their wheels to Ballsion to at- tend the usual weekly prayer meeting in the chureh. The segvice closed at 9 o'clock, and a few minutes later, while riding’ slowly throngh the center of the village, the party was suddenly surrounded by a «x of roughs, who, without speaking a word, ft is said, began _pelting riders with stones. One of the ladies struck with a missile, and another had her wheel in- jured, whereupon Messrs.
