It won’t be long till the an- telope, like the buffalo, will have to take a back seat. There won't be any left. Nowhere else in California are antelope now to be found, and nowhere conta. gious to the state, but on the plains of e n Oregon, But the latter region 18 or much of it, already just ke the great American desert. 1t looks as though it was great in extent and too barren to ever be anything else but the homo of prairie dogs, woives and these antelopes. “‘We know enough about the progress of the country generally, though, to know that this cannot be. ~ Water will be brought on the land, 1t w ductive, and the game will go down be- fore the guns of the bunters, “There are, indeed, o great many an- telope there. or three weeks ago I saw four or five bands while crossing over from Oregon 1n a wagon. There were a8 many as twenty or thirty to- gether in some of the droves. In others there w from seven to a dozen. “There is no difficulty about seeing plenty of them. We Killed three and had the best antelope steak to eat you ever We only saved out the best meat. T'here have been agreat many kilied Jately, partly for sport, partly for use as meat. 1 don't think the skins have been saved at all. “There are some of the funniest little antelopes there you ever saw—little bits of delicate, graceful things only a coun! of months oid. Very pretty, too, they are. A fawn or a lamb doesn’t begin to impress you the w one of these cun- ning little antelopes does. Women go wild about them when they see them, Perhavs there 18 no living thing, barring a httle child, that they are so taken with as a baby antelope. ““There have always been lots of ante- lope near the Nevada hne and out to- wards Idaho, but I think the past winter must have been unusually good for them, else there wouldn’t be 50 many now. There seems to bo & good many more than during any single year for some time past, ] “If there is any law against killing them { have ne heard of it, and no- body pays any attention to it, anyhow, if there is. I think it wouldn’t be a bad plan if there was such a law, because they are now too scarce on the continent, generally speaking, to have them killed oft.” —— ——— How to Make Good Light Bread.

If brevity be the “soul of wit," it is surely on these hot June afternoons not less the charm of such commencement exercises a8 have the good taste to adopt| that adage as their keynote.

O n, ] was awarded to Miss Addie Babeock; a third, for ladylike deport- ment, fell, by the unanimous votes of her companions, to Miss Belle Jones, of Sow- ard, Neb., and a fourth, for music, to Miss Loretta Dellone, of Omuha, After the distribution of premiums, the four graduates stood together while Miss Creighton read the valedictory, the sub- i’--t'l of which was “The Secret of the Rocks.” To say nothing of the manner of the young an and of her sis- ates, which was the personifica- tion of grace and modesty, the essay was strongly conce adimirably wr ten ana consistently delivered. The fare- wells were most toiching and fitted in admirably with the leading 1dea of the paper that one was taken by surprise when the actual “vale” was uftered with a pathos that spoke volumes for the young lady’'s head and heart. At the close Rt.” Rev. Bishop O'Connor ad- ssed the g s, congratulating them upon th g I pursuing o the end the diflicult course of studies laid down for them, and upon the success which erowned their efforts, It is somewhat to be regretted that the commencements of this institution, ke those of all the othe d Heart throughout t vate, being open only to tho scholars, the madiumes and the elergy of the diocese, Of the latter, there wero presen O’'Connor and Ri R.
