WHY THE CANON OF THE MASS
ES SAID ENAUDIELY.

Among the peculiarities of the Ro-
man ritual he will notice the striking
symbolism of the washing of the cele-
brant's hands, or, rather the tips of the
thumb and forefnger,) before lie
touches the sacred clements, reciting
the while a portion of the twenty.fifth
psalm, ~ will wash mine hands
in innocency, and so will | go to thine
altar" And he will observe that the
whole of the Canon of the Massn-that
portion of the service which we should
Call the consecration-is said by the
priest inaudibly. The reason given by
ritua authorities for this direction is
based on the fear lest the sacred words,
so often repeated in the hearing of the
people, might become too familiar, and
even be used profanely. A legend on
this subject, as told by recluse of
tue seventh century, is worth notice,
as having received the stamp of no
less an authority than the general
council of Nic@a. "a party of boys
watching flocks in Apam@a in Syria,
took it into their heads ore day TO
while away a portion of their time by
going through the ceremonies of mass.
One acted as celebrant, another as
deacon, and third as sub.deacon. All
went ON pleasantly, until he who per
sonated the celebrant pronounced the
sacred words of conservation, when
suddenly ball of fire, rapid and fierce
as meteor, fell down from heaven,
and so stunned the boys that they fell
prostrats on the ground. When this
singular occurrence was afterward re.
lated to the bishop of the place he
went to examine the spot, and having
learned all the particulars of the case,
caused church to be built thereon, TO
commemorate so remarkable an event.
From this circumstance, it is said, the
church derives her custom of reciting
! the ca ION in secret.

MOUNTAIN ECHOES.
BANNER, March 20, 1880.


Ed. WoRLD:-Your correspondent
in his letter of the LIST inst about the
deer and elk all perishing in the snow
on the Payette river was in error. |
slipped on my srowshoes a few days
ago and took run down to see for
myself | found not Only those that
were left there last fall all doing well,
but there appears to have been great
immigration from other lands, as they
are very plentiful, fat and sleek, aud [
defy your correspondent or any other
man to throw salt on their tails. All
the signs Of famine | saw were three
or four dead horses belonging, be-
lieve, to M. Fl. Kempner, Of Crooked
river, and if you had seen the humps
that were in them when they were ia
ken there last fall you wouldn't think
it strange Of their being food for cay
otcs.
Work is progressing finely in our
principal mines. ! took peep into
the Crown Point and Wolverine, a
few days ago, and found Joe Commits
ky and Jimmy R'allum, the Superin-
tendent, in the west end OF the tunnel
Of the former mine, bucking away at
a three foot ledge, which is looking
lsplendidly; while the boys in the Vol
VERNE are working with equal good
cheer, as the bonanza that they are
going for is but few feet ahead, and,
judging from the present appearances,
a few more shots will lay her bare.
The Banner is looming up, while
work is progressing in the Galveston
and Panamint. If we don't have a
boom here next summer it will not be
for the want of good ore and plenty Of
lit.
The rainbow that the proprietor o.
the Palace House on Crooked river
claims to have seen few days ago al
a token that his house should be de
stroyed by snow no more turned ou
to be nothing but an old "yaller horse
on the hillside. Such being the case
it will hardly be safe for the worthy
host to indulge in another Rip Val
Wrinkle sleep, especially in the wintel
time.
Please send Jim Coleman some al
manacs. He says he has one. but i
don't know anything about the moon
| think Mr.. Luney has some; if no

as be requires. EQUINOX.

IF you want good item,D said
Jim johnson to reporter the other
day, Il can tell you of funny occur
renee that happened at Hot Springs
last summer while was there. May:
or Linde, Of Hot Springs. had been
blackgnarded by the editor Of paper
there until he couldn't stand it any
longer, so according to the custom Of
the country, he went out cunning one
day. He brought down two bystand-
ers before he bagged his game, the
editor, whom he shot in the leg. None
Of them died, | believe. Then he
went on a spree, and having full
charge Of the police at the station
house, he turned out all the prisoners
in the station, lot of horse-thieves
and murderers. The next morning he
fined himself $40 for drunkenness and
ulsOru6riy cOnducl. In the course OF
time he was arrested for disorderly
conduct. In the course Of time he
was indicted for the shooting. He
got a change of venue on the ground
that he could not get justice in that
county. His trial came off in another
county. He was fined fine and cost
amounting to $95. He had forty wit
nesses subp@naed. Their fees amount
ed to S. each-$20O. They Jumped
their fees and gave them to Linde
He paid the $95 and pocketed sos
and went home happy"
That's the way they do things in

A TIMELY CALL.
How Miner Once Saved the Life
OF One Of the Bonanza Kings.

"Do you know that once saved
John Mackay's life2"
This by Tom Heffron, of the Capt.
tai Rotisserie, in Virginia, a few
days ago, to reporter Of the TINES.
How was that, Tom2"
"Well, sir, twas in the Fall Of 81.
Mackay and Fair were just getting
rich, they mad obtained control of the
Kentuck, and Mackay used to make
three or four trips day through the
mine. He never made any noise,
when he came; and we boys not
knowing when to expect him, always
wo ked ike tigers so he would not
catch US loafng. Well, one day we
had started drift from the winze on
the 450-levcl, near the south line, and
had just retired to II recess dug out
for shelter when we were to blast.
We could hear the fuse spit and
sputter. Just as we expected the
premonitory siz-z-z which indicates
that the fuse has caught the powder,
we heard mans step On the plat
form, at the bottom Of the Wine. /
knew that, in second or two, if
he was not out of the way he would
be horribly mangled by the flying
rocks. | was the nearest man out of
shelter, and jumped intr the drift to
warn him. AS exposed myself l
saw him look about, bewildered. He
had evidently heard the fuse, and re-
allied that he could not get out of
harms way, as there were four gen.
tlemen with him on the ladder who
blocked up the only way of escape.
As | realized the situation, | called
out: This way, Johnp He sprang
toward me, and cleared at least
twelve feet at bound. Just as he
reached me the blast went off, pieces
flying all about; but Mackay had
escaped. That is how | saved John
Mackay's life. After that he always
shouted down the Wine, when he
came, to see that ali WAS right"
