'Your city people who want sport nnd who never tfo anything but lish n little in the small streams near hero , ought to como to Fort Hid well , " said Jonathan I/hapln to a representative ot the San Francisco Examiner. "There is the biggest lot of antelope north of Fort Uldwell nnd beyond the Oregon line I ever saw. Very prottv they arc , too , with beautiful tawny skins and graceful carriage. "It's almost a pity to kill them , but they do it. It won't bo long till the an telope , like the ImHalo , will have to take a back seat. There won't bo any loft. Nowhere clso In California are antelope now to bo found , and nowhere conta gious to the Btatc , but on the plains of eastern Oregon. But the latter region is or much of it , already just hko the great American desert. It looks ns though it was great in extent and too barren to over no anything else but the homo of prairie dogs , wolves and these antelopes. "Wo know enough about the progress of the country generally , though , to know that this cannot be. Water will bo brought on the land , it will bo made pro ductive , ami the gtuno will go down be fore the guns of the hunters. "There are , indeed , a great many an telope there. Two or three weeks ago I saw four or five bands while crossing over from Oregon in a wagon. There were as many as twenty or thirty to gether in some of the droves. In others there wcro from seven to a dozen. "There is no difliculty about seeing plenty of them. We killed threoand hail the best antelope steak to eat you over saw. Wo only saved out tlio best meat. "There have bceh a great many killed lately , partly for sport , partly for use as meat. 1 don't think llio skins have boon saved at all. "There are homo of the funniest little antelopes there you ever saw little bits of delicate , graceful tilings only n couulo of months old. Very pretty , too , they are. A fawn or a lamb doesn't begin to impress you the way one of these cun ning little antelopes does. Women go wild about them when thny pee them. Perhaps there is no living thins , barring a little child , that they are so taken with as a b.iby antolopo. "There have always been lots of ante lope near the Nevada line and out to wards Idaho , but 1 think the past winter must have boon unusually good for them , else there wouldn't bo so many now. There booms to bo a good many moro than during any single year for some tune past. "If there is any law against killing them 1 have never heard of it , and no body pays nny 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 on" . " How to nfako Uooil Ijlaht lircad.

The stage represented a sylvan dell , rich with tropical plants and rare ferns'tuul the tableau presented by the young ladles , embowered in its foliage , in the various scones of the "Miracle of the Roses , " was a pieturo worthy of the painter's pencil. Tlio music wasot a high order of merit , organ , harps , violin and pianos alter nately and simultaneously doing duty in perfect harmony. The "Jubol Overture" was finely rendered by the four gradu ates of this year , and the first graduates of the Academy of the Sacred Heart of Omaha. The vocal music was under the direction of Prof. Do Campi , ot Chicago. It redounds to his credit as a teacher. The voices arc remarkably cultivated , as evidenced bv the bursts of song in the operetta. This was the central feature of the exorcises audit certainly was most enjoyable. Wliore all did so well It would be invidious to mention names , but special mention should be made of the charms of the miracle proper , and the uniauo song of the milk-drinkers whoso goblets rang merrily to the undercurrent of the accompaniment. Miss Clara Creightou admirably sustained the part of tlio lovely "Mignon , " and Miss Charity Habcock made a striking figure as tlio re doubtable "Landgrave ofTnnringia. " Miss McNamara's recitation of "Iji Cruco Vita , " a poetical rendering of was the miracle wrought , by the touch of the true cross , on the body of a dead woman. It was beautifully spoken and argues wclj 1'or the training in elocution which is given at the institute. The overture to "Masaniello" bv Aubcr was interpreted with a gracefulness , feeling and delicacy that fully revealed its sunny beauty and exquisite fancy. The violin and harps gave forth the silvery cadences of the upper noted , while the heavier touch upon tlio pianos flowed underneath them like an ocean of golden harmony. At this stage of tlio programme oc curred the bestowal of graduating honors , a gold medal and lnurel crown on Misses Cliira Creighton , Addio Babcock , 11. Jones , S. Lowe , who have just completed the course of studies in tlio academy. Then followed the distribution of medal lions and blno ribbons for good conduct , after which the general awarding of prizes for success in studies took place. A list of those wo publish bolow. Besides tlio gold medals of the graduates , four other cold medals were awarded , one for Christian doctrine , pre sented bv Rt. Rev. Bishop O'Connor , was won by Miss Clara Croighton , of this city ; another , for the best English essay , the gift of Mr. William J. Onahau , of Chicago , was awarded to Miss Addio Babeooka ; third , for ladylike deport ment , loll , by the unanimous votes of her companions , to Miss Hello Jones , of Seward - ard , Neb. , ami a fourth , for music , to Mi's Lorctta Dollone , of Omaha. After the distribution of pcemiums , the lour graduates stood together while Miss Creighton read the valedictory , the sub ject of which was "Tlio Secret of the Rocks. " To say nothing of tlio manner of the young valedictorian and of linr sis ter graduates , which was the personifica tion of grace and modesty , the essay was strongly conceived , admirablv writ ten and consistently delivered. The farewells - wells were most touching and fitted in admirably with the leading idea of the paper that one was taken by surprise when the actual "vale" was uttered with a pathos that spoke volumes for the young lady's head and heart. At the close lit. Rev. Bishop O'Connor ad dressed the graduates , congratulating them upon their courage in pursuing to the cud the dilllcult course of studies laid down for them , and upon the success which crowned their ollbrts. It is somewhat to bo rccrottcd that the commencements of tins institution , hko those of all the other academics in the charge of the Madames of the Sacred Heart throughout tlio country , arc pri vate , being open only to the scholars , the madames and the clergy of tlio diocese. Of the latter , there were present : Bishop O'Connor and Revs. H. A. Shallbi , S. J. , McCarthy , Doyle , Glauber , McDonald , Dowling , S. J. , Koopman , S. J. , O'Mcara , S. J. , McManus , Kelley , Gas- sidy , of O'Neill ; Ryan , of Columbus ; Fitzgerald , of Fremont ; Crowley , of Tocumseli , and McDonald , of Da-vson. In the parlors and in the lower corri dors were arranged the paintings and works of art douo by the pupils during the year. In point of selection of sub- ] ectn and perfection of execution , this de partment accords with the others of the academy. Tito work has a certain fin ish about it that attracts and pleases the eye at the same time. Thu panels done by Miss faille Lowe are remarkably fine , while ircr "Italian Shepherd Hey , " "Medea , " "Marguerite" evidence a rare talent for portrait painting. Near these last mentioned were noticed two exquisite vases , the work of Miss Anna Belle Jones , of Seward , Neb. Her work ranges ever a variety of subjects , China- painting , llowcrs and scones drawn from na'urc. Mi s Charity Babcock's love for the line arts found vent in tlio reproduction of some of these beautiful faces which artists have so carefully preserved. Flower painting , crayon drawings and etchings were displayed which showed diligent ullbrt , refined taste and consider able genius. The display of the needlework and cm- broidery took place at Christmas ; its repetition was doomed unnecessary. ritKMIUMS.

At 5 o'clock yesterday afternoon Dong- las street was the scene of considerable commotion , caused by the olTbrU of a runaway hor.se to take forcible possession of the street. The excitement was in no way quelled , cither , when a team hitched to a delivery wagon became frightened and started oil in hot pursuit at break neck speed. It appears that tlio first run away , belonging to Mr. Burn ham , real estate dealer , while standing with a buggy In front of Kahu Bros , store on the corner of Sixteenth anil Douglas streets , became frightened by reason of the reins getting entangled among his fee.t , and eventually started off. On reaching Fifteenth the buggy struck a vehicle in which a lady and gentleman were driving , hut beyond frightening the lady no serious damage wai done. Tlic buggy was , however , upset by the shock , and in a topsy-turvcy way it careered along Douglas to Fomteouth , where tlic horsn swerved on to the bidmvalk , cati nir some consternation among the bystanders. In tlio meantime the second runaways were on the warpath and had arrived at the corner of Thirteenth , where a cabman named Hob Arnold , in tlio endeavor to quiet his own horse , was struck by the wagon , and , although not seriously hurt , was considerably bruised on the siiio and legs. The first mentioned horse was now at Thirteenth , and crossed the street to the Millard house , whore , finding but poor accommodation for hor.103 in general and runaways in par ticular. It gracefully retired and sought the seclusion of an entry opposite. Hero ho made the supreme effort of his life by bounding on to a platform four feet high at the rear of the Collins Gun company's store anil dragging the now delapidatcd buggy after him. It was a feat that has seldom been equalled in the annals of "jumping with buggy" events. Tlio horse , too , had reached the. highest pinnacle of his ambition and there ho stood calmly surveying the crowd that ore long as sembled to inquire how "ho got there. " The other runaways were brought' to a sudden stop at the corner of Eleventh street by one of the horses falling. About 5 o'clock yesterday aftui noon a team belonging to Smith & Marsh , of the Glencoe milli , ran away on Saunders street. The team ran into tlio horse ami buggy of W. T. Seaman , breaking the riirht hind leg ot Seaman's animal and wrecking the buggy. Electric Lustre Starch is the best. . ItRlnstiueU. R. Grifiiths , the general foreman of the Knights of Labor returned c-astyestorday morning. Ho was called hero to adjust a dispute in the ranks of his order as well as in Fremont. Here ho reinstated as sembly 2123 , which for irregular conduct was recently deprived of its charter by the state master-workman. A Fnrtunntn Brnlccninn. It was reported last week that Mr. Frank Corcoran , in the employ of the 111. Cbiitral R. R. at the stouo depot in this city , had drawn a prize of ( JlO.OOO in tlio Louisiana State Lottery , and many being incredulous about it an Argus re porter interviewed him on tlio subject , with the result of finding the report strictly correct. Ho drew it on two-tenths of ticket No. 73,8iI. ( which took the second end capital prize of S50.001) in the draw ing of May 10th. Mr. Corcoran takes his good fortune as a matter of coursa , not being unduly elated thereby. Although a man of modest pretensions , ho was well offfinancially before gutting the prize , and as ho remarks , "a little money docs not bother him. " Hu expects to continue riirht along in his present position as long as the road wants him. Ho is , and has boon for many years , a braconian on the steam trucks tit tlio stone depot. Ho is a quiet man and very attentive to his duties , never biting absent except when ill. Ho is a bachelor , about -13 years of age. is of Irish paiontago and came to Cairo from I'ennsylv.mia in 1852. Ho lias no relatives living hero , but has two brothers and two sisters in Scranton , I'a. , all in easy circumstances. Hy ever- uising pniilcnee in cxpqtidituics and in vestments Im had aci'umulatml a larger property than Ins prize in the lottery amounts to before meeting with that piece of good luck. Such a prize would completely turn the linad of many a man but it docs not disturb Mr. Corcoran's ordinarv course of life in the slighoat. Cairo , ( Ills. ) Argiis , M-ty 23. Thf ! Practical Joltor.
