( 'n tiler I lie's Ariiiloiny. After a most successful year's work St. Catherine's academy closed Its scholastic term with the usual graduating exercises. Never before wns the program so varied erse so delightful. Invitations were previously Issued by the faculty , ns also by the young graduates , to parents , clergymen and other friends , and long before the hour appointed the artistically decorated hall was filled by a largo nnd appreciative audience. lit. Hov. Hlshop Scanncll , the Jesuit fathers of Crelghton college and the clergy of the city occupied n dais prepared for the occasion , > vhllst the side aisles of the room were filled with visiting friends. When the signal announced the right reverend a hundred lively forms , all attired In purest white , marched into the hall and greeted tlio au dience with a pretty welcome glee. An instrumental trio wns then played , nftcr which Miss Kato Shannon read nn essny "Docs America Owe Her Greatness to the Teuton , the Latin or the Celt ? " The young woman did justice to the subject and her argument In favor ot the Latins nnd Colts was most forcible. Some exquisite nttitudes and beautiful music followed , and Scott's "Marmlon and Douglas" was ren dered by the eloo-ition class. This was specially deserving of notice. The clear voices and splendid cesturcs of the young women reflected well their elocutionary powers. The essay , "Agnosticism , " was spoken with fine feeling by Miss McShane. It was an able exposition of the fallacious theory of Huxley and his followers. As a subject It wns treated In a clear , logical style , and called forth great applause from the audience. After the rendition of a very charming chorus , "Tho Minstrel Hey , " the academic honors were tbcn conferred by lit. Hcv. Ulahop Scanncll. The modest and dignified bearing of the fair young graduates as each one knelt to receive the laurel wreath was most Impressive and spoke volumes for the training given In the Institute. The second part of the program opened with nn essay , "The Glory of Fame , " by Miss Hussle. This was written In elegant style and delivered In a clear mu sical voice. The young woman was per fectly at ease and elicited well merited praise for the thought expressed. Miss Keller convinced her audience of the truth that education is the defense of na tions , only when based upon religion. Her essay was remarkable for Its strength , clear ness nnd harmony. It abounded In flno figures and well rounded periods. Space will not permit of doing justice to every number , but In all truth , the music was of the high est order of excellence and only justifies the high reputation St. Catherine's has over held In the musical department. Miss Mc- Shano's farewell was most pathetic. It was dlfllcult to decide whether the charm lay In what was said , or in the manner In which it was salt ) . At the close of the exercises nt. Rev. I Bishop Scannell expressed his intense pleas- i lire , together with that of all the clergy , at I the splendid success c-t the entertainment. Pcrfpot AVIniloiit Would give us perfect health.

Korcllily EJi-ot Him frnni One of Ills Country Itii lili'iip iM. Colonel Thomas Murray had a heap of trouble on his mind last Sunday afternoon. If the story that he poured Into the ears of Assistant County Attorney Winter can be rolled upon. He was so very earnest in his statements that on the strength of them warrants have been issued for the arrest of four men on the charge of assault with Intent to do great bodily Injury , and a half dozen others are to be apprehended for rioting. The affray occurred at one of Tom Mur ray's country residences. It may not be generally known , but the fact Is that in addition to his city residence , Murray pos sesses a number of country places to which ho may retire whenever the heat of the city drives him to rusticate among the beauties of the country. The country scat Is located In Clontarf precinct. There are some persons In the precinct who are so presumptions as to dis pute the ownership with the capitalist. In fact these claimants have gone so far as to bring the title to the land Into the courts. Last Sunday afternoon Murray went out to the property In his carriage , and after a laborious Journey finally drew close to the country house. A sight was presented to Murray's gaze which bade him pause. A dozen bridled horses surrounded the house and the owners were apparently within. A little cogitation convinced Murray that the horses were there for no good purpose. An Investigation developed that ho was right In his conclusions. In fact , Hurray was soon convinced that the owners were there for no other purpose than to put his movable possessions out in the middle of the road and dispossess him of the property. This was moro than Murray could stand. He drove un to the residence and there found himself confronted by a dozen angry tiunsl-clalmants of the property. When he tried to enter the house they seized him hand and foot and very llrmly and not too rtently placed his form upon the dust In the road. Murray's spirited charger succeeded in bringing its owner into the city yes terday , whereupon Murray at once hunted up the county attorney. He stated that the claimants tc the property had Hashed a considerable number of revolvers and other warlike weapons , and had in addition ut tered very hostile words. As a result com plaints charging assault with intent to do great bodily Injury have been filed with Justice of the I'caco Karling of Clontarf precinct against Holandus Itomlne , Charles Safford , John P. Hanger and Julo Thompson. riie warrants were being served yesterday. There are about half n dozen other resl- lents In the precinct who are charged by Murray with being participants In the af- tray. As soon as their names can be ob- lalncd Murray Intends to 1110 charges of rioting against them. _ \Vllun .MUllro S'eefla assistance It mabo best to render It iromptly. but one should remember to USP ivcn the moat perfect remedies only when icoilcj.

At the meeting of the directors of the Omaha Fair and Speed association at the Commercial club rooms at noon yesterday.

The street car company wants to chans" iho terminus of the lines from the present terminus at the east gate to the northeast corner of the croil'nds. Mr. Dunham of the state fair board of managers. In a brief statement to the meet ing said that the State Fair association had determined to pay more attention to the transportation of the people to and from the fair this fall. Ho advised that arrango- inents be made with the railroads to run their excursions from over the state , and to the depots at Omaha , Instead of stopping at the fair grounds. Many visitors desire to come into the city to see the same , and do some shopping , besides taking in the great fair. It was argued that If arrange ments could be made with the1 street rail way to convey visitors into the city on the excursion fare , this trouble would be obvi ated aud excursionists satisfied. Quicker service on the street railway would bo another way to fill the bill. Last year there was no street railway schedule , but a train leaving the grounds every minute would answer the purpose. The directors took the subject under advisement. CHAXniJ-S AMOXK FUI3IGIIT MI3.V. Fro l Fry * fi iH to Ii nvt r mill IN Hu , ' - M'i'iliil liy CliurlrN AV , Axft'll. Fred M.
