They brought a letter of introduction from Pat Donan to 2c than fifteen yards will PEASE Col.

Captain Phil Shannon of Wapinitia was in the city laBt night, on his way home from the meeting of the pioneers. He was with a party crossing the moun tains during one of the Indian wars, and the roads being bad,,two cannon the party had with them were cached. One of the cannon was brought to the eoun- rv bv General John C. Freemont. Cap jU,, Shannon says he could easily find , i V them, and steps should be taken to rescue them at once. and Mrs. S. L. Brooks, who had been attending the Pioneers' meeting at Portland, arrived home last night. Mr. Brooks tells us the meeting was a very interesting one, the address delivered by Hon. John McBride being the finest thing of the kind he ever heard. There were 510 seated at the table at the be- cinning of the banquet, and many came ' 6 . , . in aiterwara. mi. rooKs especially commends a suggestion made by Hon. j J. F.

The Women's Foreicn Missionary So- ety will hold missionary services in the Methodist church, Sunday evening, 'for the least of these, or an evening with Marv Reed, missionary to the Lepers," is the title of the booklet which will furnish the theme for the occasion.

She returned to India, and though doomed herself by 'be dread disease, she is devoting her J life to her unfortunate fellow sufferers.

MARY'S. Fine Essay by Miss Urocan, Well lceudered Program. The spacious assembly hall of St. Mary's academy was a delight to the eye yesterday afternoon, on the occasion of the graduating exercises. A beautiful room at any time, and it was made doubly so by the loving hands that had prepared it for the reception of the friends of the institution. The stage decorations were carried out entirely in blue and white, the class colors, and spanning the front of the stage was the class motto, which, translated, read, "To be, rather than to Eeem." On the stage, which is the largest and best in our city, were grouped the four pianos, behind which were massed palms and plants in profusion. Every seat was filled when nine young misses entered the stage, and seating themselves at three pianos, played with wonderful precision, "The Witches Dance," by Concone. The second num ber, a chorus by about eeventy-five chil dren, entitled, "Heart Blossoms Cull We for Our Friends,'' showed the train ing of skillful teacherV. The opening sentence of Miss Cather ine Brogan's eEsay, entitled "A Plea for Science," was: "The century in which we live has been marked by scientific re search. The expanse of man's knowl edge has become broader and broader. Discovery haB followed discovery and revolution after revolution of ideas has removed undeveloped science, and we stand today the most enlightened age the world has ever seen." She Bpoke of the marvelous civilization of Egypt, Assyria, Greece and Rome as viewed through the long vista of intervening ages. In the fair graduate's own words we ask, "And what is this lumen magnum to which humanity o'fes so much? Is it art? Is it science? Is it religion? No! but it is the union of the three, forming a perfect and noble trin ity" She referred to the beauties science held forth to those laboring in her domains, and referred to it as "wonderful and fascinating as a Jalry tale." In summing up the benefits hu manity receives from science, Mits Bro gan closed with the words, " .Ve should not allow ourselves to be wholly ignorant of a study which at once entrances the reason and fires the imagination, which can fashion as well ae forgo, which can feed as well as fill. Heaven forbid, and to nerve our courage, let us remember that no brighter luminaries will ever emblazon the firmament of our loved home than the sun of religion and the star of science," and so closed one of the brightest, best and most thoughtful es says we have ever heard. The program throughout was of the choicest nature and showed thorough drilling and instructions, but especially pretty and pleasing was the "Hurdle Kace" by St. Mary's orchestra. The precision and expression of the little girls ou their mandolins, guitars and violins was equal to the playing of much older musicians.
