The walls are of Missouri sandstone in rough ashlar, from the yards of Droxel & Folly of Omaha, Tl cut, the architeet has seized this opportunity to displny the beanty of design in carving to uan extent rarely seen eyven in the most costly churehos in the land.

This s alenten ded from the nave by the pipe organ, which, it is hoped, will ere long be heard in the new church '0 the architeet, Mr. Maxon, be- longs unstinted praise for this beautiful ereation which has arisen under his - spiration, and which is tc the. most perfeet specimen of arvchitecture in our city, if not in the entire west. The entire chuirceh is a home work. home architect, and home mechanies from first to last, and the ult shows what can be done by local tatent, if allowed sutlicient room to expand The entrance to the churen is by three massive doors in the west facade, admit- ting to a spucious vestibule, on the north of which i room fitted up for a cloak and umbretla room, while the beautiful octagon room on the south is the rector's study, it being beautifully fitted up tor that purpose ery window and every article of furnitur al gift, and the room is a sy ture of the chureh, being so admir: adapted for Jus uses of an ac working P In addition to these rooms arc two rooms at the cast end on each side of th ancel, while the room in the towe ups| s intended for the storing away of sewing mater nd garments to be made by the ladies’ society of the parish, Over the vestibule is agallery eapable of ating fifty people, which can be used when oceasion demands. ntering the nave, or body of the church, the attention is attracted by ti lofty roof rising to a height of ifty-six feet from the floor, and supported “by a selt-supporting truss, as unique in con- struction as_ beautiful in design and ap- pearance. It seems to be an adaptation of abridge truss to the gothic ecclesiasti- cal style of the structure, e: ch truss rounded arches termmating in a Latin cross. The architect can certainly rest his repntation upon this most beautiful specimen of work, which must be seen and studied to be appreciated. The roof is supported by this truss, with- out the aid of pillars, thus leaving every seat in the church available and of equal value for seeing and hearing. Wlhere the trusses unite to support the roof at the intersections of the transepts the effeet is still turther heightened by the massive timber work looking at the same time so light and graceful, though weighing fully forty thousand pounds ‘The walls of the nuve and ceiling are painted in quiet colors, no contrasts Deing visible, and ali blending in perfect harmony, the stained glass windows being the only bright coloring save in th hancel, where the decorations are in utiful taste and quite elaborate.

The center iel of the window is three boys, robed choristers, the outside inted designs in rich panels being floria subdued colo The west w dow on the north of the nave is a veryineat one, mscribed, “Pre- sented by the Rescue ‘Hose Company.” Our fire boys are thus represented in this beautiful building, and will doubtless always feel a kimdly interest in the good work being carried on by this proge sive church society.

The central window is fonna, a_full-length and g of Raphael's celebrated painting. This window was given by the Sunday school in memory of Lee Webh, son of the former rector of St church. This window has on each side of it a copy of Fra Anjelica’s an- gels, one being presented by the young men of the chureh, the other by the young ladies. The south window in the chancel containsa figure of the Good Shepnerd, and is presented by Mrs Montgomery to the memory of her grand- father, Sylvanus Dodge, the father of General Dadge, of our city. The chancel windows, as all the windows of the church with the exception of three, are from the manufactory of Me Cully & Miles, of Chieago, and are beautiful specimens of the art of glass staining. The designer of the cele- brated Stewart window is Mr, N. H. kg gleston, of New York, whose exquisite taste is also seen in the nterior decor: tions of the church. The carpet of the chancel was presented by the Sunday school, which has thus erowned its work by finishing the unl‘y part of the church which can be called fully completed in every respect. We have endeavored to give our readers some 1dea of the inte- rior decorations of this elegant church, but the most claborate description must fall far short of the reality, 1t will well all lovi of the beautiful to visit St. Paul's church, where hours ean be spent in studying its various details, The gas fixtures which are ordered have failed to arrive, thus detracting, in a manne: from the finished eflect which their p ence would produce, Those who gaze with so much mir- ation upon this beautiful structure, d who know the history of its building, even from casual observarion, must wire still more the energy, pluck and persistence of the rector, . T J Mackey, who has been a ' daily inspir- ation to any and all who felt their own energies flugging, and their confidence in its success waning. To him is due the credit for even the meipiency of the great enterprise, and from a feeble start he has worked on, overeoming n.any obstacles, until now, n the building in all its beauty appears in veality, as he saw it long ago in his confident looking futur ward, he modestly shrinks from rece i ise¢ for what he has done.
