His connection with the paper continued over a quarter of a century Mr. Abbot outliving all its proprietors. With -the Associated Press Mr. Abbot continued until Dr. Jones retired.

He was then asked toy Mr. Snow, of the Tribune, If he would take the agency, but declined, the work being too arduous and confining. He, bowever. attached other papers to his Picayune connection. Including the Philadelphia Ledger, for many years, and the Boston Journal.

The latter had Just begun its morning edition, and on the Boston Associated Press refusing to allow the Journal to become a memoer. hoping thereby to kill it, Mr. Abbot was telegraphed a carte blanche by Colonel Rogers, and be so flooded the Journal with Important telegrams that its opponents were compelled to cry for quarter and to seek admission Into the Jour- nal news arrangements. Mr. addoc was highly complimented by Colonel Rogers for the big victory.

In later years Mr. Abbot confined his dntles to the Galveston News, Dallas News and the Philadelphia Record, having commenced with tbe very first number of the latter paper under Mr. Swaim, and continuing the connection under Colonel Slngerly. In 1871 Mr. Abbot lost his mother, and as a memorial to her he at once erected a non-sectarian chapel near bis residence at Harrison, New York, paying the entire cost of the same out of his newspaper earnings, and supporting It In all the years Afterwards without once taking up a collection.

The great lawn of the Busing home at 1623 North Claiborne street wore a striking appearance last night. Strung from the booths oX the small trees which skirt the pathways were gay Chinese lanterns, each sending shafts of varl-colored light.

Almost everywhere were found sweet-faced girls and charming matrons serving cream and other dainties to the guests. The ladies were connected with the Young Ladles Association of St. John's Evangelical Luthern church, and they were celebrating the twenty-fifth anniversary of their society. Any number of gnests were present, and the hostess. Miss Emma Busing, with her assistants, did not fail in making everyone thoroughly enjoy the evening.

Sunday last the celebration was had la the little church, and after the services the members determined to celebrate socially as well. So arrangements were made for tha lawn party which occurred last night. For twenty-five rears this association has spread so much good within and outside of the church that Its worth Is not questioned. There la no show at benevolence among tbe members, but the main object is to further tha religious interests of the congregation, and often deserving students and teachers have received help from tbe association. For each-other, the members' strive to make life haoDler.

Ber. A. Tardj Celebrating the Twenty-Fifth Anniversary Of His Ordination as a Minister of Christ, And the People to Whom He Has Devoted Himself Show Their Lore and Esteem for the Good Man Who Guides Them Unselfishly. Twenty-five years an active worker In the ministry: twenty-five years of steady, conscientious labor, lu spite of the disadvantages of poor health; keeping up his courage, and steadfastness, and resolution through storm, as well as through sunshine; such Is the record and the noble career of the Rev. A.

J. Tardy, beloved rector of St. John's lEplscopal church of New Orleans. Yesterday was the twenty-fifth anniversary of his ordination by the late Bishop Wllmer, of reverend memory. In order to show their appreciation of the event, and to present to their esteemed pastor their congratulations and best wishes, the members and congregation of St.

John's church last night planned and carried out a surprise for Dr. Tardy. REV. A. J.

TARDY. 'He iwas Invited to attend a reception at the residence of 'Mrs. Bosley, 2336 Annunciation street, at 8 p. and when he arrived he -was immediately surrounded by his flock, and tbe receptljin was forthwith continued In his honor. Many ifriends were present, among them the Episcopal ministers of the several purines in this city.

It -was regretted that Bishop Sessums could not attend, for the reason that he Is at present out of the city, making his yearly pastoral visits In the country ipar'shes. Mrs Bosley. assisted by a committee of ladles, took care that the guests should not lack was some very pleasing vocal and In-, strumental music, which added much to the attractiveness of the occasion. Ir. Tardy received a and a substantial token of esteem and appreciation from his congregation, and at 11 o'clock the pleasing soiree was brought to a close.

Daring an Intermission In the musical entertainment Mr. iMrflreevy read the following letter to Dr. Tardy: The Members and Congregation of St. John's Protestant Episcopal Church to the Rev. A.

J. Tardy. Our Dear Rector: It Is with joy that we hall this twenty-tifth anniversary of ycur loving and devoted ministry In our Lord's vineyard, and we sincerely hope and pray that he will spare you to us many years to come, spare you to us for many years to come. Kindly accept thLs little token of the good wishes and love of the members of your congregation, who tor you will ever pray. tMr.

Mcllreevy then presented a lovely bouquet to Dr. Tardy, whose emotion was bo great that It was Impossible for him to say much more than to thank his beloved people for their overwhelming kindness In! having tendered him such a grand reception, and for showering upon htm so many and so sincerely hearty congratulations. Dr. Tardy did not know, but mast since have discovered that, concealed in the bouquet there was an envelope, whose contents represented a neat little sum of money. An impromptu programme of vocal instrumental music was given as ioi-lows: "The Palma." by H.

and when quite a child came to New Or-leans with his parents. His father, the late A. J. Tardy, was a prominent and successful cotton merchant of this city, and one of the founders of the Cotton Exchange. For some years prior to hi entrance into the ministry, Mr.

Tardy was engaged in commercial pursuits. From childhood his thoughts were turned toward pious and holy contemplations, and when, on the 25th day of 1873. tie -was ordained a deacon in tbe old Christ church of this city, then located at the corner of Canal and Dauphine streets, his most fervent wish was gratified. Bishop Wllmer performed the Impressive ceremony, and soon after, by appointment of the bishop, the young deacon was assigned to Christ church, and was placed in charge of the city missions. He preached in the various public institutions.

On May 31. 1875. he was ordained priest In Trinity chuch by Bishop Wllmer. His first charge was St. John's Episcopal church, at the corner of Third and Annunciation, in which toe served for six vears, until falling health, caused by excessive cares, compelled him to resign, and he Temoved to Maryland.

Upon his restoration to health. Dr. Tardy became a resident of Pass Christian, end had charge of Trinity church there. He next went to Bay St. Louis, and was pastor of Christ church.

In 1883 he received a very flattering call to the rectorship of Holy Trinity church, the mother parish of the growing city ol Minneapolis, Minn. After a very pleatrant and successful rectorship of three years, being unable to stand the severe climate of -the northwest. Dr. Tardy was forced to give up a most promising field of labor, nod to sever hlrt connection with a devoted and appreciative congregation. He returned to New Orleans and accepted charge of St.

George's church, of which be was pastor for five years. Under his administration of St. George's parish, the present Audubon park missions were established. Three years ago his old parishioners of St. John's church urged him to come back to them, and.

after an absence of nearly twenty years, he returned to that church, and was most affectionately greeted. Since his return, the Sunday school has increased from one teacher and twelve scholars to 135 pupils end teachers, and the communicant list from 25 to 80 people. B.

TAKING THE VEIL. An Impressive Ceremony at tbe Carmelite Monastery. The renunciation of tbe world fcy a young woman la tbe midst of all tbe brightness and beatr of life is always a most sclemo and momentous occasion, but it becomes doubly so when suob strict sod faithful life of sacrifice Is required as that demanded by tbe rules of tbe Carmelite Monastery. Never to look out upon tbe world again, never to see tbe fdces of friends and lored ones, to lead a life of self-sacrifice and renunciation and prayer snd fasting such Is tbe life of the dang-hter of Carmel, and such was tbe life forever Chosen yescerday within tbe peaceful lnclosures of tbe Camiellte Monastery by Miss Nettle Kerrigan, of Pittsburg, Pa. It wss only a short time ago that this bright and beautiful rlrl came, la all the strength and splendor of ber youth, to lay down all that youth holds dearest at the threshold of tbe Carmelite Monastery in this city.

But the life is a most serious and rigorous one, snd not to -be entered Into without trial and reflection. This term of probation and thought has been fulfilled by the youthful novice, and feeling the sincerity of her vocation sod that sbe was indeed called by God to serve him in this sacred inclosure, she asked and yesterdsy received at tbe tands of ber superiors the black ell, which forever identities her with this, tbe most rigorous crder of the Sisterhoods of the Catholic chDrch, and foreTer severs her relation with the world without. The ceremony of profession Is a most solemn end affecting one. In other orders, even tbe cloistered ones, tbe nun may sometimes see Hie friends she loves, though always within the strict inclosure of the conTent. But in tbe Carmelite and Poor Clare orders the black veil forever shuts out tbe sight of even parents and brother nd sisters, and- tbe nun wbo embraces this state lays tbe most cherished wishes of her heart on the altar as a sacrifice to tbe spouse whom sbe has chosen to follow the Lord Jesus Obrist.

Miss Kerrigan, knows In religion as Sister Teresa Franc-is of the 'Holy Name of Jesus, made her solemn profession on May 24; rbe conferring of tbe black veil yesterday sealed that solemn act. The occasion was honored by tbe presence of Whe very reverend vicar general of the diocese. Canon iaval, wtoo was tbe celebrant at tbe solemn blgh mass offered, and received the tows of the newly professed nun. Rev. C.

Brockmeler acted as deacon, and Rev. John Kieter as subdeacon. Among tbe clergy present were: Rev. Albert Blever, S. Rev.

P. Massardler, Rev. Father Paul, O. S. B.

Rev. Davis. S. and Rev. J.

Paroli. Tbe sermon was delivered by ReT. Father BieTer, the eloqueit Jesuit. father Blever chose as his theme tbe beauty, grandeur and utility of the religious life, and the works of the n-Mgios orders In the Church. Ue showed the benefits that they conferred on the world, and paid specMl allusion to the apostolate of prayer and penanc exercised by the glorious order of Carmel in behalf of souls and tbe glory of God.

Father Blever's fervid words deeply impressed his bearers. Upon the conclusion of the mass Father Laval received tbe solemn vows of the novice and bestowed upon her the black veil of the order of Carmel. As Sister Teresi Francis passed from the sanctuary rail Into the dim inclosure of the convent which forever debarred all intercourse with the oat-side world; and friends and loved ones were bidden adieu until tbe last day, for never more shall they look upon her face to. life, there was scarcely a dry eye in the congregation. The bell of the monastery tolled her death to the world and all about was a holy oahn such as Is only felt In the presence of a deata that Is Indeed tbe entrance to eternal life.

The music was very beautiful and was furnished by Miss Daisy Mullen's talented choir. Miss (Mullen directed the singing, assisted by Prof. Gernhaoser, of St. Stephen's church. Mario's mm was run and the gentlemen and ladies wbo so kindly loaned their talent for the occasion were as follows: TenorsMessrs.

J. Douglas and Bar boa. Bassos-Messrs. Gerobauser, Quintan and Schwarts. The sopranos were: Misses Daisy Mullen, Tinker.

Qamlao. During the offertory Mr. Pitard rendered beautifully on the violin, the "Oavalerla Rus-tlcano." At tbe close of the mass, daring tbe blessing of the black veil. Very Kev. Father Laval, the clergy sod choir sang alternately the various parts of the anthems and responses ana Deluded with tbe "Te Deum." Benediction of the blessed sacrament was given by Father Laval and the impressive ceremonies came to a close.

Do not add any water. Cover the top of the jar completely, and set It In a large saucepan surrounded with boiling water. Allow to boil thus for four hours, addlne more water to tbe pan as It wastes. Send the mutton to the table in a deep dish, with the vegetables This is an extremely tasty luncheon dish, despite its name.

Whole Wheat Bread. Boll and mash three medium sized potatoes; use the water in which they were boiled, adding sufficient to make three pints of warm water, one and one-half teaspoonfuls of salt, a tablespoonful of butter, one-half a yeast cake (whole one for cold weather.) Dissolve in a little warm water, beat well and add enough whole wheat flour for a soft dough; knead until fine; set to rise until double the sire, then make out into four loaves: let rise light. Bake as any other bread. This will be light and spon-ry. If you wish more solid leave out potatoes.

DAILY FASHION HINT. In the Cape ft The latest capes are shawl shape and dip to a point In the back. Mantles suggesting the sloped shoulders of our grandmothers are also worn, and many a quaint cape that a season or so ago would have been voted Impossible Is pulled out from the old trunk now. Being with new frills of taffeta, and perhaps a bit of spangling or a touch of beading, it is thought ust the rlgb thing. Mantles set on a yoke, giving the effect of folding low on the shoulders have long tab fronts.

There Is an old world and old-time grace in thene styles, but remember that If you affect such you should dress to match and comfort yourself with languid grace: there Is nothing kittenish about tabs. Some mantles are really made from shoulder shawls- draped on a yoke. It ts more than likely that by midsummer we shall be wearing shoulder shawls, and perhaps In a few more months will be tearing our hair because we sacrificed ma's India shawl to make a fall gown a year or so ago. Bodices whose sleeves have cape outlines are still seen, and one that was an ingenious blend of Jacket and bodice effects was sketched for this column. It was of black faille, covered with coarse silk net that was embroidered with Jet sprays.

It pouched a little above the belt the basque being covered like the rest and edged with a lace ruffle. A band of Jetted black velvet gave the collar, and the sleeves were completed with double caps of tucked black chiffon, eactt edged with a lace ruffle. A doubled lacs frill skirred In the center finished tba shoulders. May has kept the owners of furs In uncomfortable Indecision. True to the calendar, moths appeared flying about with tbe information that furs, should be put in and yet any day It was likely to ball, and almost every day rained and blew.

That meant that we ought to keep furs In sight, and so the moths and bugs are living high. Many contend that our climate is changing and that we must take up the English fashion of having furs for summer as well as winter, but unless the weather becomes settled and warm pretty quick most of ns will not have any furs for either season.

This sterling organization of young Jewish, ladles held its quarterly meeting yesterday In the rooms of the Young "Men's Hebrew Association. The meeting was a moat Interesting one? In spite of the extreme beat it was unusually well attended and great enthusiasm and interest was manifested. "Miss Kosetta Rosenfleld presided.

The reports of the various officers showed the good work accomplished during the last quarter. Each week the young ladles meet at the Touro Infirmary and devote the day to sewing for the poor and needy. Many garments have been distributed, and various welcome donations were received from kind friends and well wishers, mostly former members of the organization. A few resignations were received. Once a member marries she can no longer be a member of tne society, tout is transferred to the senior association.

(Several new members were enrolled. The report of the able treasurer. Miss (Hester Rosenberg, showed that the finances of the society were in a flourishing condition. The only new business before the association was the appeal from the ladles composing the Saturday Half-Holiday Association, asking that the eoeiety indorse the movement and the circulars sent by the president. Mts.

Reuben Bush. The Young Ladles' Sewing Society resolved to indorse the movement, striking out the clause in the circular, however, whereby members were requested to pledge theiruielvea not to give patronage to any mrchant who would keep his store open on Saturday afternoon during the months of July and August. Aftr the collection of dues. Miss Ro-setta Rosenfleld, tbe worthy president, in a few well chosen words thanked the officers and members for their able support during the past quarter. The society then adjourned for the summer.

The next meeting will be held in the fall when the earnest work so successfully carried on for so many years will be taken up, with the same fruitful results. No association works with more zeal than the Young Ladies' Sewing Society. Yenr In and year out as members pass from the ranks their places are filled by a younger and equally devoted set, and hundreds of garments are distributed annually among the poor ns the result of the labor of these faithful girls. The charity that they uo in other lines is also a marked feature of their work. But it is done simply and and the public never know the beneficiaries.

Cahn it was learned that Dr. Elizabeth Bates has bequeathed to the medical department of the University of Michigan the sum of $125,000 to establish, permanently a choir in that university for the diseases of women and children. The university has always had this chair, but this bequest makes the chair financially Independent. It will be remembered that some time ago Dr. Mary A.

G. Dlght, Mrs. Caroline K. Merrick and Mrs. Evelyn B.

Ordway sought to interest the women of the south in the establishment of a woman's medical college bere, as the Tulane Mealcal College persistently refuses to throw open Its doors to women, though tbe law department and the pharmacy department are doing noble -work by the women of the state In compliance with the state law. Perhaps, if some woman of the south -would endow a chair In the Tulane Medical College, a college, by the way, erected through the munificence of a woman of New Orleans, and stipulate that this endowment should be used excluslve- ly for the study of the diseases of women and children, the Tulane University, appreciating at length all that women have done for It, would open its doors to the number of bright youn women in Louisiana who are anxious to take up the study of medicine, but are debarred because of the non-progressive attitude of the medical department of the great southern university. Some two years ago three bright gTrls graduated from a department of Tulane University, by the waV and these girls Intended to take up the study of medicine for the benefit of ih women of their state. But their honored a ma mater, while it bestowed upon them the same diplomas accorded to its voX men graduates, refused admittance these bright girls when they asked to 4. to enter its medical department At present the doors are hennet-frllv sealed.

Perhaps some great dona-tSn or bequest cnade by women for the endowment of a special chair may open fhe hearts of its authorities end allow the omen of Louisiana who desire to study medicine the same facilities aad oppor-tutlea that are offered, by the progress in states of the union. The study of tbe JiSirof women and children Is one for wTch womn are peculiarly fitted, and once women doctors are sent out from the medical department of Tulane. they will S1d their own as women have don In every other avocation or profession to they have been admitted- Are tha male physicians afraid that the women doctors will crowd them out of the ranks agencies of strictly TUGXI GHJLE2 EKEBS03, TTuXELOCT, STZZU THE KBAKATJEB. with tha for its manj superior qualities SOUL OF THE UAMUEI 1001-1003 Canal Ct.
