HON0RED BY THE LADIES
Company M, League of the Cross
Cadets, Given an Ameri.
can Flag.
An Interesting Ceremony in ST Fran.
els Hall When the En- blem
Was Pres nted.

The large hall of st. Francis Church, at
Vallejo street and Montgomery avenue,
was thronged last evening when the young
ladies of St. Francis parish presented
Com pany M, League of the Cross Cadets,
with beautiful American flag. The flag
itself was sufficient to arouse the latent
enthusiasm and patriotism of those
present. 1t is a gorgeous banner of silk,
fringed with gold tassels and supplemented
by streamers bearing the name OF the
company. There could be no doubling
the sincere interest shown in the proceed
ings, not alone by the boys themselves,
who are pledged to temperance, but by
the girls. who were present in large num-
bers to present the flag, and also by the
grown people.
The hall was decorated with ferns and
sprays of flowers, while the platform was
draped with National flags and otherwise
beautifed with flowers.
Rev. Father Caraher, pastor of the par
ish. presided. and with him n the stage
were seated the officers OF Company M.
The flag was presented by Miss K.
Campbell and received by Captain T. j.
Dinan. In her appropriate presentation
address Miss Campbell said it was pleas
ant duty she had to perform in addressing
Company M in behalf of the ladies who
took this opportunity of expressing their
heartfelt appreciation of the good work of
the league. She congratulated Company
Nj on its fidelity to principle, admired its
perseverance and assured it they would
always find the young ladies of st. Francis
parish ready and willing to aid Company
M in any work it would undertake to pro
mote the cause of temperance.
Captain Dinan replied for his company,
offering the thanks of his comrades for
the beautiful emblem. He said that the
presentation showed that the ladies in
dorsed the movement represented by Com
pany M, and that its members were
watched by friendly eyes; it also gave
them moral support and encouragement
which aided them to keep their pledges.
He further promised that the flag would
be regarded as one of the chief treasures
of tho company, and he hoped that in
future the same flag would inculcate les
sons OF patriotism in the minds of the
members of Company M.
Father Caraher told the audience that
the ceremonies gave him great pleasure
because it was an outburst of patriotism.
Cadets of the League of the Cross he
said, you have been honored by the
ladies of your parish, and it is expected
that your conduct will be an honor to
yourselves, an ornament to religion and
an example of the virtue Of temperance" !"
1t was announced that grand rally
would be given Sunday at 2p M. in the
Mechanics Pavilion, at which all mem
bers of the. league and the full cadet regi-
ment would be present. Admission will
be free to everybody. The principal fea-
ture will be an essay contest for the Arch
bishops medal. Archbishop Riordan will
deliver the address.

How They Left.

WILLOWS. CAL, Aug. THE usually
quiet and peaceable rural precincts of
Clarks Valley and the large possessions of
]. R. Garnett in the southwestern portion
of this county are fairly agog with wild
-umors and speculations over the prob
able whereabouts of Oscar Waugh, man
about 35 years DID, and Miss Edna Minton,
a pretty and only daughter of Perry
Minton, a prominent farmer, who resides
twelve miles from Willows. Every in
dication points to elopement, but not
withstandlng most diligent inquiries and
search having been made all efforts have
failed to get even a clew to their where
abouts, except that Miss Edna left home
last Tuesday under pretense of visiting a
family of friends in Clarks Valley, few
miles from the home of her father.

When the school is present there is no
time lost in their efforts to get on to the
hooks and the man in the dory has no
time to sit down and enjoy the sea scenes
around him. Frequently a line will come
up with fish on each of its two hooks
and two or three free fish following their
captive brothers to the surface in hopes
that they can take the lucky (?l fellows
places should they get loose from the
hooks.
This, of course. suits the doryman, as it
helps him to earn his $25 per thousand,

chap who bats the cod in his deep.sea
lair.
