The furriss Of snow that blew from the
mountains Saturday morning chilled the
hearts Of the many Eurekans who had
been looking forward 10 the 2lst Of Septem-
Der with no small degree Of expectancy and
interest, and never did Old Sol look more
cheerful than when he emerged from be-
utu II CiOuu6 Auu ut1ouiNCu bnu Whfso
spots on the ground, restoring eq~uanimity
for che morrow.
The Rev. Bishop celebrated the s o'clock
Mass on Sunday. Of which the confirmation
class received Holy Communion in . body.
The girls, ROBBED in white. their wells

| blsd in the church and with the congrega-

qusns sermon. He dwelt particularly on
the rite OF the church he was about TO i'd
minister and clearly explained various
points Of Catholic doctrine and ceremonies.
he effectively pointed out the uses the
church made of material things in her Of
fees and csremonials to spiritually impress
her children. The Bishops concluding
anecdotes went straight to the hearts and
intelligence Of his hearers, so forcibly did

II is interesting to recall that the Bishops
first psstorate was in Nevada. In 1902 be

10 1887 be was raised to the Episcopal See.
1t follows that while the Bishop resides In
Utah, the kindness and graciousness Of the
people Of Nevada to him in his early ecole-
s~issticsl life make each and every visit 10
the Silver State an occasion Of the most
pleasant "reminiscences.
