WASCOxlM)EPISNDK.Vr ACADXMT.
Commencement: Exereigea The Gradu
ates -A Successful Xear. f
' Commencement exercises of Wasco
Independent academy began on Sunday
evening with a baccalaureate sermon by
Rev. G. R. Burnside, of Buffalo, N. Y,
from the text "Be ye perfect, even as
your Father in heaven is perfect'' Matt.
5 :48. In his impressive way, Mr. Burn-
side set forth the "One Perfect - Life"
and exhorted each to do his best to imi
tate His spirit and follow his example.
5 The' Congregational church choir con
tributed much to the pleasure and profit
of the exercise by their excellent music.
Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday
were given to examinations. .
v The alumni gave the'graduating class
a supper on Monday evening, which was
an occasion of much pleasure to the par
ticipants. . It seldom falls to our lot to report so
pleasing an event as that' which took
place in the auditorium of the Court
bouee last evening, the occasion leing
the exercises of the graduating class for
the year 1891-92. . By' eight o'clock the
large hall : was filled to overflowing,
while those who came a little late, were
unable to obtain admittance. It was
with considerable pride we noticed so
many representative citizens of our town,
while a number of visitors from distant
cities in the East, were also happily
conspicuous by their presence.
; The exercises' began . promptly at 8
d'clock, and as Rev. Air. Cortia had not
yet arrived, prayer was-offered by Rev.
George R. Burnside. Then came music
by Mrs. Huntington,. Miss Slutz, Mr.
Crandall and Mr. Burlingame.
Miss Frances Ettie Rowe followed
with an excellently 'written essay en
titled '"Three Centuries of Education."
. After a short interval Mr. Geo. Burlin
game sang a solo and was warmly ap
plauded, :
'The essay of Miss Olive Taylor, on
?'The;Life and Times of Homer,'.' is
worthy of great praise and cannot fail
to excite a deeper interest when we are
told that "seven cities now claim Homer
dead, in which the living Homer begged
for bread." ..v ' ; ;:;-?
. The instrumental solo of Miss Aitnee
Newman also deserves a good share of
our applause while the oration of Mr.
Albert Patrick O'Leary on !'The Acquis
ition of Oregon," was the great treat of
tlie evening. .: .. .' . .. :'
This, by the way, is a note-worthy in
stance of home education in the higher
branches of study. Mr. O'Leary ;will
always be more largely indebted ";to :'the
opportunities and .influence ef - Wasco
academy than to any other factor In his
education; Besides an excellent stand
ing in his classes as a student, an inter
est in home, history, and public affaire,
has;, been-acquired,- and the academy
last, night gave birn the! opportunity to
take a position before the people of bis
native city from which he probably will
never recede. ; - '.-.-," ,,-',-
ine academy -has. enabled him to
choose his standard, and his career as a
man must be marked by the Same earn
est effort that gave to him . his achieve
ment as a boy." "'" " j-j.
We understand the influence of the
Wasco academy is to be still further ex
tended by his becoming a student Of
Brown University, the alma mater of
Prof.' Ingalls. . - ' ''-.
in this way, the early training of the
child and the boy continues in the
youth, and throughout his experience as
a man, young O'Leary will, .we are sure,
claim Wasco academy as the institution
wnicn exerted the greatest and best in
fluence upon his life.
- Mr. Burlingame gave a seconci solo on
"The Pilgrim Teacher" and was again
generously applauded," after which the
Rev. O. D. Taylor,, president efc the
board of directors, made a very earnest
address. In the course of his remarks,
Mr. Taylor said he had' sent dow to
Hood River, for some strawberries a few
days ago, having heard that they were
larger and sweeter than our own berries
here at home; well, the berries came
and. they were excellent, being both,,
large and sweet, bnt after they were
eaten he went out into his own garden
and found berries that, were larger and
sweeter, and so; by way of illustration,
3ir. Taylor urged upon the citizens to j
investigate ine opportunities wmcii our
city is the proud possessor of, and that
when our young people arrive at an age
when they seek for higher education, to
give them the benefit of that wliich can
be procured at home, equal to the best.
' In addressing the graduatingclass Mr.
Taylor spoke with great" earnestness,
and in the kind words that reflected a
father's love, urged upon them to follow
their own better impulses as they
journeyed through life, and to all of
which it might be aptly said -'
J'Tbis above'all .-'",
To thine own self be true '-
And it must follow, as the night the day
Thou cans't not not then be- false to any
man." . .
In presenting the diplomas Prof. In
galls .was visibly affected, as he- has no
doubt had for his pupils a feeling akin to
that which a father feel s for his children.
We heartily congratulate the professor
upon his work for the past year. :.
A Hear Kitslly Caught-
A party ot ; hunters on 'the Florida,
coast came suddenly upon a bear prowl
ing about the wreckage 1 on tho beach.
Bruin would first look at an article, then
smell it, touch it with his paw and finally,-
after deliberately seating himself,
with his hind' legs projecting- in front,
turn his head on one side and try to
CTack his new acquisition with his teeth.
The burlesque gravity of his manner
was indescribable. ..
I He threw away a cocoanut, as being
too hard to chew, ate an orange with
great satisfaction and - presently discov
ered, a small cask, which he endeavored
to open, By dint of much biting he en
larged the bunghole so that he could in
sert a paw; then he held the cask on one
arm and kept the Other paw. busy in
rapid journeys thence to his month. . ''.;
. But this method of. getting at the con
tents did not satisfy him, and presently,
standing: 'erect on his hind, feet, he in
serted his nose in; the barrel, and1 then
his head.' Now, a bear's nose is so sharp
that it goes through a small, place very
easily, bnt owing;-to the heavy folds of
skin., about the neck, and the fact that
the hair . and. ears are set backward, it
does not possess the same facility for
coming out,
Brain .was fast. He began to' pull
back, but- as he polled the barrel came
with him, and as he rolled on his back,
pawing ineffectually at its convex sides,
it merely revolved about his head, as if
it were on a pivot. Then, alarmed by the
sound of our laughter, he took fright
and ran, wearing the cask on his head
like a helmet. '
Up tho hill ho rushed, lost all sense of
direction, and rolled head over heels
squarely among us. Picking himself
np he reared and' began growling and
waving his. paws, bnt was speedily re
leased by one of the negroes, -who broke
the barrel . with : a blow from his club
and scattered the mackerel with which
it,had been filled.- :"''
The bear rewarded him for this serv
ice -with a blow of the paw which laid
him on the sands, and in another second
was himself stretched there by the dis
charge of two rifles. Wild Sports in
