Oldest Catholic Church. St. I'liilonn-nas church, proudly and justly claims to he, not in con struction hut historically, the oldest church in Nebraska, which was un der the ecclesiastical jurisdiction of Onebec from 170 to 160. From 1779 to 1787 it was subject to the diocese of Santiago de Cuba. In 1851 Nebraska and Kansas formed what was known as the "Vicariate Apostolic of the territory cast of the Kocky mountains." The first mass in Nebraska, as far as records show, uas celebrated in Omaha by Father V. Fmmonds, in the representative ball of the obi territorial capitol building in the early summer of 1855. In 1856 a modest brick structure, the first church in Omaha, was built I on the northeast corner of K.ighth anl Howard streets, and dedicated under the title of St. Marys. In May, 185, Rt. Rev. Bishop O'Gorman was sent from the Trappist monastery at Dubuque as "vicar apostolic of Ne braska." St. Marys was now elevated to the rank of cathedral. Structure Outgrown. The increasing population brought its quota of Catholics and this mod est little structure soon became too small. Ninth and Howard streets was tJien the heart of Omaha, and in 1867 the work of the new cathe dral was begun. The dedication un der the new title of St. Philomcnas cathedral took place on Passion Sun day. March 29, 1868. In 1898 Rev. Father Stenson was appointed assist ant pastor. The continued development of the v. bole district, and encroachments of rnilroads made the location undesir able for church purposes and the property was sold in 1907 to the John Deer company. The former cathedral congrega tion worshipped at St. Mary MaR dalenes church from October, 1907, to August, 1909, when the new St. rhilomcnas church was formally opened for worship. Father McGovern relinquished the pastorate very shortly after the re moval of the old cathedral upon his appointment to the charge of St. Pe ters parish. Bishop Scannell then appointed Falher Stenson as pastor of St. Philomcnas, who h now en tering his 25th year of uninterrupted connection with the parish. Souvenir Booklet. The present new church, parochial school and presbytery have been erected during his pastorate. Dainty little booklets, embossed with a silver cross, at the base of which appear the letters "St. P." with the name "James V. Stenson" in silver on a small panel at the foot of the front cover, will be given members of the parish and friends at the public reception Tuesday as souvenirs of the silver jubilee. ' In the booklet is a short bio graphical sketch of Father Stenson's lire, with a large autographed picture of the pastor and engravings of St. Philomenas in 1868. 1907, 1909 and now. A historical sketch of the par ish also is contained in the souvenir pamphlet. Harry Vpkes, Mirth-Maker for Years, Dies in Boston Boston, Mass.. April 15.
