Voices in the choir then rang out in a song of praise, and the Archbishop knelt and said: “May the Lord béstow upon thee all these things and every good | thing and preserve thee and strengthen | thee in goodness.” All present answered this prayer with a | feeling *“Amen.” Atthe conclusion of this part of the im- pressive ceremony Father Grace knelt and kissed the hand of the Archbishop. This was followed by the consecrator praying the blessing of God upon the Bishop-elect and all present. He then bent down and repeated the litanies. When all had arisen from their knees Archbishop | Riordan annointed the head of Father | | Grace and consecrated him Bishop of the | r | Diocese of Sacramento. As he anointed | tians hold to be divine, definitely teaches him he said: ““May he be filled with the power of thy spirit and outwardly may he be clothed with that same spirit. May constant faith, pure love, sincere piety abound in May his feet by thy giit be beauti- ful for announcing the glad tidings of peace, for announcing the glad tidings of thy good things. Graot him, O Lord, the ministry of reconciliation in word and in deed, in the power of signs and of wonders.

Father Thomas Grace, Vicar-General of this Catholic diocese, was ' | in heaven. that he make use of, not boast of, the power of which thou bestowest unto edifica- tion, not unto destruction. Whatsoever he shall bind upon earth, let it be bound like- wise in heaven, and whatsoever he shall loose upon earth, let it likewise be loosed Whose sins he shali retain, let them be retained, and do thou remit the | thy High Priest. Through Christ our Lord, Amen,” After Archbishop Riordan had an- nointed Father Grace Bishop of the dio- cese of Sacramento. Bishop Montgomery of Los Angeles stepped into the pulpit and | delivered the consecration sermon. He | spoke of the prevalence in every man of a | supernatural sense, and that God and religion confronted him at every turn, and demanded recognition. The Catholic church had for 1800 years and longer been the most powerful or- ganization in spiritual matters, yet men antagonistic to it through not understand- ing it had built up religions of their own i and founded upon moral laws formulated upon plans of their own creation. The New Teestament, which all Chris- | that the church established by Christ was a visible, living organism, speaking with the authority of Christ. The speaker referred to the suffering on | the cross of the Son of God, and his say- ing, “I am the way, the truth and the life.”” To-day we witness in the most im- | pressive manner the distinct and essen- tial, organism of the caurch. Every priest and every. bishop can trace | from the imposing hands laid upon him | that lineal succession of the promises | made to the Apostles. Concluding, the speaker said: “To you, Right Reverend Bishop Grace, and to you, dear brethren, the loving apiritual children of your Bishop, I need only say 1 believe you are the choice of the people, as you are the choice of the priests of this diocese, and, as I happen to know, the unanimous choice of the Archbishop and bishops of this province. be, as I know you will be, a worthy successor to the first saintly Bishop ~ SAN JOSE CONTEST, A Day Consumed in Read- i ing Noah Pomeroy's Deposition.

Fay (Republican) against Homer Prindle (Independent) for a seat in the City Council from the 8econd Ward came up before Judge Lorigan this morning for a settlement of the findings and the de- cree. Attorney Cothran, who represented Prindle, objected to the jurisdiction of the court in the matter and moved that the cause be dismissed. He cited a decision made in Los Angeles County under the old constitution, in which it was decided that the Common Council was the sole judge of the election returns and the judge of the qualifications of its members to sit in its meetin This ruling, it was maintained by Mr. Cothran, was not altered by the effact of subsequent provisions in the new constitution, as the adoption of the new constitutior in 1879 approved a like provision in the charter of the city of San Jose. Judge Lorigan denied the motion to dis- miss and showed where the case cited had been overruled by the Supreme Court. In deciding the matter the court said that tlie ouches or envelopes cortaining the allots, together with the allots therein, tally - sheets, the poll - lists unused and the spoiled ballots, were produced in court and were all intact and 1n the same condition as when delivered to the City Clerk by the several boards of election, and in nowise interfered or tam- pered with. The court further finds, upon a recount of the votes cast at said eleetion, that the said J. P. Fay received 380 legal votes cast at said election in said ward, and the said Homer Prindle received 376 legal votes. The court finds that said J. P. Fay was duly elected Councilman from said Second Ward and that said Homer Prindle was not eiected, and that said Homer Prindle consecrated as Bishop.n the presence of & } vast congregation. | Bishop Manogue’s successor took the | oath of obedience to the mother church, | and in return was crowned and received ‘ the golden crozier of his pastorate. The | new prelate was consecrated by Archbishop iordan, D 1., assisted by Bishop Mont- gomery of Los Angeles and Bishop Scan- | Jan of Salt Lake, and Fathers Hunt and Walsh, chaplains of the Bishop-elect. Aside from the prelates officiating there | was a large attendance of priests and | regulars of - the various orders from many points on the coast. Most elaborate ypreparations had been made for the cere- mony, which undoubtedly is surrounded | with more imposing solemnity than any other ceremony in the rubric of the Catho- | lic church, The interior of the chureii | eaifice was decorated with a profusion of flowers for the occasion. | The great altar and the altars of St. Mary and St. Joseph were draped in white, while here and there golden spangles added a glittering effect to the scene. | All in all the ensemble of architecture, floral decorations, candelabra, and the | crimson, purple, goid and white robes of | the participants in the consecration, com- | imypressive scencs ever witnessed inasimi- | Jar ceremony- { During the consecration and investiture, | which consumed over three hours, a most | dramatic scene was enacted. | As the organ peeled forth a joyous vol- untary the doors of the sacristy opened | and the procession entered the sanctuary, | headed by the cross-bearer and acolytes. | Atthis timen procession had marched | down the main aisles of the cathedral— | the Children of Mary, led by J. E. Hook | and C. T. Hughes, neading the column. | In torn followed the Ladies’ Relief So- | ciety. the Young Ladies’ Institute, Coun- cils Nos. 11 and 17, Young Men’s Institute, | Catholic Knights of America, Ancient, | Order of Hibernians and the Portuguese Union of California. At no other time during the ceremony was a stronger im- pression made on the assembled congre- | gation than at this inoment. ! The Archbishops, Bishops and clergy came into view through the doors of the | sacristy. Archbishop Riordan was in full | pontificals, with golden miter, chasuble, crozier, alb, pallium and girdle. Bishops | Montgomery and Scanlan had white | mijters and chasubles. The different | vriests officiating roped. Inaddition were many acolytes in ! purple cassocks and white lace surplices. Secular priests from all over the Pacific Slope were in attendance, their presence adding greatly to the solemnity of the oc- caston. With the first burst of melody the procession of robed priests took up thgir respective places, Archbishop Riordan in the center facing the congregation, and Fatber Grace, led by two assistant Bish- ops, was led before him, where he stood with uncovered head. Leaving the Bishop-elect, the assistants seated to the right and left, where th-y remained for 8 moment and then turned to Archbishop Riordan and said, both speaking together: *‘Most Reverend Fath- er, our holy mother, the Catholic Church, asks that you promote this priest bere present to the burden of the episcopate.” Archbishop Riordan then asked for the apostolic mandate, which was pr-sented and read, and then Father Grace, bowing bimself before the audience, promised to teach his people both by words and ex- ample the things he understood from the divine Seripture, that he would refrain from ali evil and direet his Tollowers to all good; that he would give up worldly mat- ters and devote himself to divine affairs; that he would teach bimself, and that he e e CONSECRATIOM OF BISHOP GRACE AND IMPOSING CEREMONIES AT SACRAMENTO YESTERDAY. 5 sins of whomsoever he shall remit.

May he be untiring in his solicitude, fervent in spirit. May he detest pride and cherish bumility and truth and never de- sert it, overcome either by flattery or by fear. Let him not put light for darkness nor darkness for light; let him not call evil good nor good evil.

Through our Lord Jesus Christ, who liveth and reigneth in the unity of.one God, world without end. Amen.” The Archbishop, then making the sign of the cross, continued : *‘In the name of God, the Father, and were magnificently | of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost, making | the image of the holy cross of our saviour, | Jesus Christ, who has redeemed us from { death and led us to the kingdom of | heaven. Hear us, O loving, almighty | father, eternal God, and grant that we | may obtain what we ask for through the | same Christ, our Lord. May God and the | father of our lord, Jesus Ohrist, who hath himself willed to elevate thee | to the dignity of the episcovate, bedew | t/ ee with Chrism and with the liquor of | mystic ointment and make thee fruitful | with the richness of spiritual benediction. Whatsoever you shall bless may it be olessed, and whatsoever you shall sangtify may it be sanctified, and may the imposi- tion of this consecrated hand and thumb be profitable in all things unto salvation.” The Archbishop then arose and after sprinkling the miter placed it upon the head of Bishop Grace, saying: “We, O Lord, place on the head of this, thy Bishop and champion, the helmet of protection and salvation, so that his face being adorned and his bead armed with the horns of both testaments, he may seem terrible to the opponents of truth, and through the indulgence of thy grace may be their sturdy adversary, thou who didst mark with the brightest rays of thy splen- dor and truth the countenance of Moses Let him be the faith- | Bishop Manogue, your immediate prede- cessor. Dear brethren, upbold and strengthen the hands of your chief spirit- | ual guide in all that he shall attempt for the advancement of the church and in building up the body of Curist in your souls; for the disposition of charity to all men; and a loving and loyal citizenship of | our country, till we shall meet in unity of faith, at least in the higher citizenship of man’s true home and country.” Among the visiting Catholic clergy who participated in the consecration were noticed: Rev.

He was engaged in the business of a clock manufacturer for thirty years, and for twenty-four years of this 1 time George H, Parker was his partner in | business. Parker,Mr. Pomeroy said,married a Miss | Hill as his first wife. At the time of his | first wife's death witness believed Parker to be worth about $2500 to $3000. He be- came a member of witness’ family subse- quent to bis first wife's death. After his second marriage Parker re- sided in Bristol. After his removal to California witness saw him again about | 1860. Witness was not vaid. by anybody | for G. H.

Afterward Edward went to California to visit his father, and was gone about a year; his jather returned East with him, His father furnished Edwara with $8000 capiial at that time, to set him up in busi- ;(::.

CROWDS ON THE BEACH Hundreds of Visitors Are Arriv- ing on Every Incoming Train. THE CITY IN GALA ATTIRE. Everybody Is Looking Forward to a Scason of Joy and Pleasure. SANTA CRUZ, CaL., June 16.—All this long beautiful June day Pacific avenue, the main thoroughfare of Santa Cruz, has been a gay promenade. There is an ab- sence of the bustle of a business day and none of the quiet of a Sabbath. Buta joliy, happy, careless throng of citizens and visitors, full of the spirit of the carni- val season and dressed as only this beauti- fal June weather permits. | Young ladies in bright summer frocks, their elders in less showy and perhaps more substantial fabrics, but all of them gowned in happy harmony with the bright { sanshine. Such weather as it is and has been for three days just passed has never | been known in Santa Cruz, and yet this | city boasts of the mildest and most appre- | ciative carnival weather in the whole, great State of California. Down on the warm white sands of the beach people have been gathered all day. Indolent people they are, to be sure. But indolence is their pleasure. They are | 1dly waiting for the morrow—waiting to | 1 sce the beginning of the carnival, | ; waiting to see the grand parade of| | the bluejackets from the Philadelphia and the Monadnock, waiting for the miniature of the battle of Bunker Hill that will forra the concluding feature of the celebration of that bit of revolutionary | | history, to be introduced by an address from Irving M. Scott, the man who has { builded warships that would have been impossible in the days of the revolution or even in the late War of the Rebellion. Mr. Scott came here at noon to-day and | is enjoying a quier, restful outing. This afternoon, in a cool, darkened room at the Sea Beach Hotel, lounging comfortably on | a couch, with nothing to do but rest, without an apparent care, he expressed | the opinion that Santa Cruz was a greatly favored city to bave so advantageous a | | location on the lazy San Lorenzo fora series of water fetes. “And the crowds are coming,’’ he said. | “The train I came on over the narrow- | | gauge was loaded and all along the way | from Alameda pier to Santa Cruz the | | people are talking of the carnival.” | Mr. Scott drifted slowly from the carni- valto the subject of warships, and con- | gratulated the Naval Reserve of this City on the opportunity afforded to learn from practical men much that will be valuable to them in their training. | Besides the pleasure that shail be every- | body’s when the gallant officers and blue- jackets from the warships appear on Pa- cific avenue in the erandest of all the grand parades this city or any otherin California has ever seen. A number of the officers of the vessels were on the streets to-day and bluejack- ets were plentiful and good-natured, en- joving their leave of absence from ship duty, mingling with the citizens and ex- pressing their good wishes for the success of the carnival. Lieutenant-Commander Ingersoll, Sur- geon Steele and Chaplain Edmonson of ) the Philadelphia came ashore and were | entertained informally and introduced by ! Lieutenant - Governor Jeter and Judge Logan to a number of prminent people. They chatted pleasantly of the event which is honored by the presence of the ships in the bay, and watched with inter- | est'the inspection of the floats and barges | that were lined “Y near the Queen’s tarone. Alongside lay the Monitor and the Merrimac toys in miniature of tie once great sea-fighters of the rebellion. The visitors smiled at the contrast be- tween these toys and the great white ships lying in the bay. |~ To-morrow the gallant officers and jolly | pluejackets of the Philadelphia and the | Monadock will come ashore. and with a | seriousness and skill that will produce a | realistic color in the picturesque parade of the afternoon. The parade will form at the foot of Pa- | cific avenue, and will move at 2 p. M.
