JOY BRINGERS,

Some men move through life as a band. of
music moves down the street. flinging out
pleasure on every side through the air to
every one, far. and near, that can listen.
Some men fill the air with their presence
and sweetness, us orchards in October days
fill the ait with perfume of ripe fruit. Some
women cling to their wi houses, like the
honeysuckle. over the door, yet, like it,
sweeten. all the region with the subtle fra
GRANGE of their goodness. There are trees
Of Righteousness, which ,aree" ever dropping
precious fruit around them. There are lives
that shine like I%star-beams, or charm the
heart like songs sung upon . holy day. .o'1
How great a bounty and q blessing II is to
hold the royal gifts. of the, soul, SO that they
shall be music to some, and fragrance to
others, and life to all! It would be no I'M
worthy thing to live for, to make the power
which we have within us, the breath of other

Captain Summers Company B Of
the First Cavalry arrived in San
Francisco, Oct. 25th, direct from
Mount Idaho. where they had been
entered for the prolonged horse race
between Draw Poker Joseph of the
barbarous Nez Perces and the Chris
tian General Howard. As they rode
through the streets of the city, their
remarkably battle-scarred and badly
soiled appearance, indicated that
they must have been the favorites
in the pools of Idaho mud, even if
Joe did win the race. It was an
even question whether the disconso-
late and emaciated horses were hold
ing their riders up or whether the
bronze1 troopers, who had at least
captured the tawny colors of the red
men, we're not holding them up.
The three wagons of the train had
also been frightfully demoralized,
and the legendary army mule was
for once reduced to kickless and
melancholy meekness. and looked as
if it had had more than enough OF
the uncomfortable game of draw"
to which Poker Joe had subjected
it. Company F and B of the Twelfth
Infantry have also returned, and are
stationed as before at Angel Island.

At St. james Church, New

six young ladies were invested
with the habit Of the Sisters of
Notre Dame. The white wells
and habits were blessed, and
each received from Mother The
ophia, Superior General of the
Eastern Province, a crucifix and
instructions relative to the order
which they had embraced. The
hair of each of the postulants
was then shorn, typical Of their
renunciation of the world, and
the habit of the Sisters of No
tre Dame was assumed. After
this they received the white veil
and gilded rosary, and were then
crowned with wreaths of roses.
Accompanying the other gifts
was the sponsal candle, which
they received with the priestly
admonition to keep the light of
charity constantly burning.
