Slept in the Brush.

Mrs. j. F. Hesse and her sister.
Miss Stella Rodolf, returned last
night from a trip of several days. du-
ration in the Grand Canyon country.
Mrs. Hesse has entirely recovered
from her severe attack of rheumatism
which kept her bed fast for nearly
two months this spring. She reports
having had great trip to the Canyon,
but there is part of the experience
she does not care to have repeated
very soon. She and her sister hired q
man to take them to the canyon in G
wagon, the distance being about 6
days drive from where they started.
The driver got lost, however, and
night overlook them in the timber
without food, water or bedding and
they we're compelled to make a bed of
pine boughs and sleep with covering
of blue sky. The experience was any
thing but funny then, but after they
had travelled the most of the next day
they came to the railroad track and
waited for train which they stopped
and got aboard leaving the driver to
get out of the bad mess the best he
could. They got home again, hired a
good guide and went to the Canyon on
horse back, remaining there for sew
eral days enjoying the wonderful
scenery. Mrs. Hesse says if anybody
thinks it is fun to be lost in the forest
Just let them try it once.

Or. Smith Returns.

DR.. W. s. Smith, the we'll known
and popular young physician, return
ed on last evenings train from Los
Angeles, where he went for the osten.
sible purpose of having his eyes treat.
ed. That the treatment was highly
successful, is evidenced by the fact
that while there he was enabled to
see the necessity of his securing life
partner, which he promptly did, the
fortunate young lady being Miss Ma
bel Wilson, daughter of a prominent
resident of Los Angeles. The cere-
mony was performed on the evening
of June Is, in that city. The bride is
graduate of the Santa Monica, Cali
fornia, high school and is said to be
highly accomplished performer on
the piano. AS the doctor Is a master
on the violin the couple will be able
to conduct a family orchestra. The
fact of their coming home last night
was kept secret, so that the many
friends of the groom, who would have
been glad to meet him and his bride
at the train and extend the glad hand
we're prevented from doing so. The
we'll wishes for the couple are how
ever none the less sincere and in the
hearty congratulations of which the
doctor and his bride will be the re-
cipient, the Journal Miner joins in
wishing long ano happy life.

Graduating Exercises.

The spacious room in the basement
of the Catholic church, was not
large enough to hold all who desired
to witness the closing exercises of the
senior class of st. Joseph's academy.
The room was packed full even to its
standing room capacity and scores OF
people, unable to obtain entrance
were compelled to leave. The au
dience was as appreciative. as it was
large and each number on the very in
teresting programme received hearty
applause. No applause however was
bestowed where it was not merited as
the numbers were most excellently
rendered, showing careful and patient
training on the part of the teachers
and good ability and honest work on
the part of the students. The young
ladies were dressed in white, which
added to their natural charms, gave
them a most beautiful appearance.
The programme consisted of the fol
lowing numbers:
It's The Bugle Horn" Chorus.
Recitation-"The Gate of Life, "
Seniors.
1.-The Auction Extraordinary, -
Fertile Wier.
Observation-Disclosures
Drama-"Tbe Champion of Hell
