night, with the reflection of gas light
on the blue, white and gold OF the
graduating class OF st. Mary's Insti-5
.tute, when the exercises of the TWEEN
tieth annual commencement Of the in
stitute were observed and q class OF
five members Misses Josephine WEIGH,
Anna Hayes, Frances Mooney and

The class colors predominated on the
stage, lntermingling with an abund-
ance of roses. carnations, peonies and
ferns. The lower box on the south side
was draped in royal purple in honor OF
Its occupant, Rt. Rev. T. NJ. Lehman,
bishop of Cheyenne, Wyo., who was acT
