A beautiful tableau closed the scene.

MISS LEMPER. "A Noble Aim Faithfully Kept is a Aoble Deed," was the subject of the essay of Miss Rose P. Lemper. She was prettily attired in a suit of blue silk covered with white mouselin de soie, and carried a cluster of roses. Miss Lemper said: 'As gazing on rushing waters we behold in imagination the glimmer of hidden jewels lying within its unfathomable depths, so we.

standing on the brink of the sea of life and gazing on its troubled waters have constant ly before our mental vision an ideal of future life which we have formed according to the inclination of our hearts. "It is to be a life of untold delights where the dismal faces of sorrow and care are never seen. Childhood dreams of future greatness mingle with the more sombre facts of nature's age. This glowing picture of the happy future that awaits us ani mates and influences all our actions. "Hope promises success, and, star-line with clear and steady lustre, illumes our path, cheers us with its bright rays, actuates us with motives which will enable us to surmount the obstacles which impede our progress and make of them stepping stones by whicn we may reach our wished-for goal! Thus it has ever been in all classes and phases of life.

To the eyes of childhood life is one long gala-day of happiness. "Looking forward to the future with the memory of past and present Joys fresh in their minds, no vision of perfection in th" coming years seems toe elaborate. Later on, life presents herself as the beautiful maiden of the poet's fancy on whose spotless brow 1p twined a garland of roses and whose flowing robe is faultless. As the years advance, man, sick of the tameness. coarseness and unseemliness which surround him, feels an intense longing to attain that perfection which has ever been to him a cherished object of his desires to realize the bright morning dream of life.

"He laughs lightly at those who would wish him to believe that absolute perfection exists not on earth But soon, ery soon, the bright vision Considered at length realized a vain dream. "And thus, all the noble alms lofty aspirations and brilliant con ceptions of visionary good which our busy imaginations form in the differ ent stages of life. But though we may not lie able to realize the golden Idea of life nor be able to accomplish those noble alms which have ever shone so brightly, tinging the cloud of life with their own roseate hues causing us ever to look to the future for the fulfillment of all our uspira tlons. it still lies in our power to possess Us fairest charm. For Its en joyments we need wnlt for no future; the golden moments of the Eterna now suillee; nor need we seeli it in some far distant clime, but In the spot where each succeeding momont finds us.

It Is a dream no longer; of Itt reality we may assure ourselves is this charm? It Is the insep arable companion of time, to which peaceful conscience bears willing tes tiniony; it Is a freedom from the evllu which follow In the train of vice, joy, not unmingled with some sorrow it is true; we have been early taught to bless the loving hand that chas- teneth. For us it is still morning; the scorching rays of noon-tide have not yet warned us of the sun's arrival a his meridian. The evening will see the completion of our life work. How happj will that evening be If awaken ed from all selfish dreams our ener gies be directed to some noblw, well- choseu end remembering that Noble Aim Faithfully Kept Is as a Noble Misses Lemper and Goswiller took positions on the plalform and were presented with the graduation medal: by Rev, Father M. Cooney of St Joseph's church.

Rev. Father D. Gorman of St. Joseph's college, I)u buque, addressed the class, the trend of his remarks being that the reason we educate is because the soul is im mortal. He said in part: "This, we may say, is a memorab event, not because it is unusual in Us character, but because of its object-education.

This is a work which brings forth what is noblest and best In each individual. Its object is eter nal and unending happiness. Why dc we educate? In general, to make per feet men and women by developing character, to teach the duty of self- control and self-denial, to impress the beau.y of virtue and the nobility of toil, to teach others to hearken to the voice of conscience. Not to prepare for the next life, but to live this life with reference to the future one. Such an education is the safeguard of society isot to know but to will rules the world.

Hence, something is needed to control this mighty power In man. Was not he a philosophen who said 'Educate the mind only and you pro duce a fanatic; educate the heart and you produce a skeptic, but educate conjointly the mind and heart and you have the noblest work of This is effected by developing the power? and faculties of the human soul. The essence of man and all the of man Is the human soul. Why is it that we educate? Be cause of the value of that great and essential element in m.m, the soul. In closing, Father Gorman paid a high tribute to instructors in Chris tian schools, and addressed a few appropriate words to the class.

MISS GOSWILLER. Prettily attired in pink silk with chif fon Into which was interwoven threads of silver, and holding a clus ter of beautiful roses, Miss Susie I. Goswiller presented her valedictory About her on the platform were group ed a score or more of the young ladies of the school. She said: "In youth our days are as troklen dream, For naught but joy and kindness is then known, But school days crowned with happi ness all are flown! And looking back how peaceful do they seem. "Before saying the word that parts us from that portion of life made happy by the sweet days of childhood and from which we go to that new field wherein experience is the mas ter and facts are the books, I will take a retrospective view of the past.

'Free as the years have been that time has worked In our calendar we can but intuitively feel what you have already learned that the happiest chapter of our life is closed. Theore tically known to us you have bought me knowledge that 'There are gains for all our losses, There are balms for all our pains. But when childhood, that dream of life departs it never comes "Our school life has been the flower-garden from which we plucked the buds of knowledge and planted the massive oak of virtue and honor. The corner stone of our lives has been well laid. Our beloved parents can look upon the work cemented by their ow labor and love and say 'We did it and.

He who looks from on high can look upon it too and smile upon the laborers. "We now possess the instrument for good or evil, instrument, 'tis true, is as yet crude and capable of much development and polish but its degree of excellence will depend on our own workmanship. That the knowledge we possess has become ours by a gift of love, renders it more prec.ous, and necessitates our careful preservation of it. 'Knowledge is and we who are entering life's great school should wield that which we nave for God's honor and man's benefit.

The intense heat of last evening, was of the humid, oppressive kind which compels one if he chooses to make the best of such a condition to remain quietly out of doors, and re frain, if possible, from housing him self where lack of an occasional cooling breeze makes existense miserable. Nevertheless a large audience assem bled at Brown's opera house to wit ness the exercises of the twenty-fifth -commencement of Our Lady of Victory Academy, and none seemed to mind the heat, so occupied were they with the scenes presented on the platform.

The members of the class of '97, Miss Susie I. Goswiller and Miss Rose P. Lemper, appeared in music and essay, and about 130 attendants at the academy assisted in the several numbers on the program. The stage was prettily adorned with flowers and growing evergreens. At either side were banks of palms and flowers, the footlights were surrounded by roses, water-lilies and evergreen and the class motto, "SEMPER FIDELIS," in letters of silver shown out from a background of evergreen at the upper front of the stage.

The first numbers on the program were two selections by a mandolin club composed of Steve Carrigg, Charlie Zimmerman.Frank Federspeil, Bridget Talty, Lizzie Rosgen, Mary McMahon, Katie Zimmerman, and Lizzie Reed. Grace Carrigg presided at the organ. "La Lula Brll-lante Danza," and "Bell of the Season," were heartily applauded.

CLUED AT LAST. Denver, April 27, '97. For the past twenty years I have been afflicted with asthma. I have used a great number of different medi cines recommended for asthma as a cure, but they failed, only giving me a little relief, until I got Rev. W.

Brown's asthma cure. The first week that I took Rev. Brown's medicine, it was a wonder to me and my wife how I could go to bed and sleep without getting up to cough. I have not missed a night of sleep since using Brown's medicine. I am thankful to God for putting it into rny brother's heart to prepare the medicine I have now.

I have found the cure at last. I can cheerfully recommend the Rev. W. W. Brown medicine to every one who Is suffering from asthma.
