ORDER OF THE
HOLY CROSS
REV. FATHER HUNGINGTON
FOUNDED IT IN NEW YORK CITY
OVER 20 YEARS AGO.
Its Conception, Growth and Its
Present Membership—lts First
Home Presented by a Friend.
Beuutiful New Home in Course ol
Construction—The Daily Home-Life
of “the Members of the Order.
The Koatlne Followed Each Day.
The mission in progress at St.
Paul’s Episcopal Church has at
tracted wide attention to the
clergymen who conduct the services,
Rev, Fathers James O. S. Hunt
ington, O. H. C., and Shirley Carter
Hughson, O. H. C. With it there has
come a decided interest in the brother
hood of which the two visiting priests
hre representatives, and many ques
tions have been asked concerning the
Order of the Holy Cross.
The Order of the Holy Cross Is a re
ligious community, consisting at pres
ent, exclusively of priests, though the
time may come when it will be pos
sible to include laymen in the order.
The community had its origin in New
York city, in the year 1880. The first
member to take the vows was the pres
ent superior of the order, Rev. James
O. S. Huntington. He was professed
by .the Bishop of New York, Nov. 25,
1884.
During its earlier years the order
worked in the Mission Church of the
Holy Cross, on the East Side of New
York. At first this work was carried
on in association with Rev. Father
Hoehing, a German priest, who con
ducted the services for the adult people
of the mission, all of whom were Ger
man immigrants. At 'the death of
Father Hoehing, in 1885, the order took
entire charge of the mission.
Growth of Order.
The second priest of the order was
Rev. Father Sturges Allen, who was
professed by the Bishop of N—v York
on Deo. 1. 1888. Father Huntington and
Futher Allen moved to New York and
lived for some time in a hired house
at No. 417 Pleasant avenue. In De
cember. 1891, Rev. Henry R. Sargent
wui admitted to the order as a novice.
In the winter of 1891-2 Miss Lucretla
E. Van Bibber of Westminster, Md.,
offered the order the house It notv oc
cupies In that town, and on Aug. 2,
1892, the order took up It* residence
[ there. In the spring of 1894 Father
i Sargent was professed by the Bishop
| of Tennessee at Sewanee and the or
der had sufficient members to obtain
corporate rights. The order has never
had any lorn I cure of soula In Mnry-
I land. Its external work being carried on
in missions, retreats and conferences.
During the last year the response to
call for work carried the order Into
twenty-six dioceses.
The membership of Hie order now
I consists of Rev. Fathers James O. H.
Huntington, Kturges Alien, Henry R.
Hargeiit, Hhlrl-y Carter Hughson.
Frederick Herbert Mill and William
Francis Muvo,
Ufs ol the Order.
A dietin< itva habit has been adopt
ed traceable to W Augustlm of Hlpjoi.

the fifth century. Tile lie mi is svbiie,
| with a big. k girdle, and a black wood -

black habit of the same shape is worn.
The order aims to follow a life in
Which the worship of God within its
own walls and work for souls abroad
both find full exercise, and together
absorb all the time and strength which
are granted. At home the time table
for an ordinary day is as follows:
5 a, m., rise; 5:30 to 6, meditation in
chapel; 6, morning prayer and prime;
6:50 to 8, celebrations of the Holy Eu
charist; 8, breakfast; 9:30, Terce and
intercessions; 12 m., sext and none;
12:30, dinner; 1 to 1:20, recreation (in
common); 4:45, evensong; 5:15 to 5:45,
meditation; 6, supper; 6:30 to 7:15,
recreation (in common); 8:30, compline;
10, lights extinguished. Silence on or
dinary days is observed from terce till
sext; from 1:20 to 2 p. m., and from
compline until after breakfast.
Connected with the order are the
oblates, boys who have been given to
the order by fiheir parents, fifteen celi
bate priests and eighteen other priests
associate.
The Order's New Home.
The new home of the order, now In
process of construction, is at West
Park. The building, a cut of which
accompanies this sketch, stands, en
closed from the weather, on a rocky
ledge that furnishes a strong founda
tion for it. The roof has been,covered
with tar paper, a' sufficient covering
for a year at least. There are to be
six dormer windows in the roof, though
these have not yet been put in place.
In the basement are four chapels,
ten feet square, each with an altar on
the north side. They are reached by
a passageway from the lower sacristy,
which is just south of them. These
chapels will be used principally for the
early celebrations of the Holy Eucha
rist.
The cloister is immediately over the
chapels, one hundred feet long and ten
feet wide, entered from the main hall
of the building. The main chapel oc
cupies the entire north end of the
building, alongside the cloister. There
are no windows in the north side of
the chapel, so that the altar will stand
out In plain sight against the north
wall. The chapel has an aisle, seven
feet wide, on the east side, separated
from the main portion by a row of
brick pillars and arches. The chapel
is thirty feet wide, forty-two feet long,
and sixteen feet high.
The Other Rooms.
In a space south of the chapel, sepa
rated from it by two brick arches with
open-work grille, Is the women’s gal
lery. The gallery is fifteen feet by
twelve, and has a window in the west.
The reception room is Just north of
the principal entrance. The refectory,
twenty feet wide by thirty feet long,
takes up the entire south end of the
building, beyond the cloister. The li
brary, forty feet long by twenty feet
wide, is just above the cloister and
runs across the entire building from
east to west. It will be lighted by
eight windows.
The common room for the professed
fathers Is at the south end of the
building, on the same floor as the li
brary. The superior’s office Is in the
middle of the east front of the build
ing. over the cloister. The novices
room Is over the room for the professed
fulhers. The guests’ room is a counter
part of the novices’ room In the north
end of the building. The remainder
of the upper floor is divided Into sleep
ing rooms.
ft Is estimated that *15,00 Is yet
necenary to complete the building.
For this money the order must depend
upon contributions.

BASILICA OF ST, MARK'S VENICE.
Vienna, Dec. 17.—Much anxiety for the safety of St. Mark’s is manifested
since the report of Engineers Manfredi and Marangoni was received showing
that the entire structure is in an alarming condition of weakness. The
foundations are bending and cracking, the walls are sinking and the ceilings
of two of the vaults threaten to give way. The engineers recommend the
immediate erection of scaffolding and propose a thorough restoration of the
whole building, including reparation of the foundations
- J* he J' 0l !^ PS ; ° f J he Campanile on Ju ‘y I *■ 1902, marked the beginning
of St Marks troubles. The fall had been foreseen by architects, who had
investigated the cracking of the walls of the structure, but the delay of
the authorities proved fatal. The ru ins filled the whole square of St.
Mark s, but fortunately the Cathedral escaped injury from the fall of the
Campanile, though the wing of the angel which was on its apex was
thrown down to the front door of the Cathedral, smashing the Bando col
umn which was hurled thirty-five feet, Just escaping the column support
ing the south angel of the Cathedral, a more serious disaster being narrow
ly averted The foundations of the Campanile having been found to be sound
the rebuilding was promptly begun, and the comef stone of the new Cam
nan" a *rv, lai<i 'f, pr ? - 25, 1902- The rebuilding, it was estimated, would cost
JpOO.OOO. The preliminary subscriptions amounted to *300,000, large rontrtbu
tions being received from the United States. St. Mark’s is a building of
the tenth and eleventh centuries.
