A beautiful tableau closed the scene. MIS3 LEMPER. "A Noble Aim Faithfully Kept is a isoble 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 mouselln de sole, 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 constantly 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 animates and influences all our actions. "Hope promises success, and, starve with clear and steady lustre, illumes our path, cheers ns 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 the coming years seems toe elaborate. Later on, life presents herself as the beautiful maiden of the poet's fancy on whose spotless brow is twined a garland of roses and whose flowing robe is faultless. As the years advance, man, Bick 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, very soon, the bright vision fades, and he finds that the ideal he considered at length realized a vain dream.

Nevertheless a large audience assembled at Brown's opera house to witness 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 Susie I. Goswiller and Miss Rose P. Lemper, appeared in music and essay, and about 150 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 Sowers, the footlights were surrounded by roses, water-lilies and evergreen and the class motto, "SEMPER, FIDELIS," in letters of Bilver 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 ZIramerman.Frank Federspeil, Bridget Talty, Lizzie Rosgen, Mary McMahon, Katie Zimmerman, and Lizzie Reed. Grace Carrigg presided at the organ. "La Lula Bril-lante Danza," and "Bell of the Season," ere heanily applauded. John Pendergast gave the salutatory address in which he dwelt briefly upon the occasion wblrh had brought the people together, and closed with an earnest expression of welcome.

Twenty-six boys gave a military drill which showed careful work in teaching precision of action. Miss Goswiller played the accompaniment. Nicholas Wolfe delivered an oration oc the theme, "Strength is Union." He reviewed history teaching the fact that In union there is strength and closed with the biblical quotation that a kingdom divided against itself cannot stand.
