Mission Closed.

Last night at the church OF the
Immaculate Conception Rev. Faith
er Quinn preached the closing SER
mon of the missisn which was held
during the week. The subject was
on perseverance and the means to
secure it, VIZ: prayer, holy COM
munion, charity and confidence in
the mother of God.
The audience was a large one
and many non-C Catholics were pres
ent. A special favor was granted
to those who participated in the
exercises of the mission; II was the
papal benediction. This is a privi-
lege which the missionary has the
power to impart at the close of
each mission which he gives. The
benediction of the most holy sacra-
ment was then gwen and the Te
Deum" sung.
Father Quinn leaves by tenor
row 5 train for Corpus Christi, and
next Sunday begins a mission in
Beeville, Texas. The good wishes
and prayers of the English speak
ing congregation of the Immaculate
Conception church accompany him
in his apostolic career.

mistake of planting part of his

suit was the loss of about two and
a half carloads, on account of split
and misshapen stock. Mr.. Burt
said his yield would be something
near a carload per acre.

He Declares There Are Two Ways

The President once answered In this
wise man who had expressed admir-.
alton for his successful career:
ut has always seemed to me that in
life there are two ways of achieving
success, or for that matter. Of achiev-
Ing what is commonly called greatness.
One Is to do that which can only be
done by the man of exceptional and ex-
traordinary abilities. OF course, this
means that only one man can do It.
ana It Is very rare kind Of success
or Of greatness. The other Is to do
that which many men could do. but
which, as matter of fact, none of them
actually docs. This Is the ordinary kind
Of greatness. Nobody but one of the
worlds rare geniuses could have writ
ten the Gettysburg speech or the sec
ond inaugural. or met as Lincoln met
the awful crisis Of the Civil War But
most of us can do the ordinary things
which. however. most Of us do not do.

NARROWLY ESCAPED ARREST
Pasadena Citizens Discipline Drivers
for Los Angeles Firm for Over
loading Horses
Special to The Herald


PASADENA, Aug. 24.-George Gill
son and Roy Hutchins, employees of the
Eastern Quitting company, 544 South
Spring street, Los Angeles, only by the
exercise of a great amount of tact
kept themselves from being arrested
in this city yesterday on the charge of
cruelty to animals.
The men left Los Angeles yesterday
noon with a load of household goods
on a van drawn by three horses, ac
cordlng to horsemen, totally unable to
haul the great load. Near the Hotel
Raymond the animals stalled. Gibson
and Hutchins removed a third of the
load, piled it along the road and drove
on.
At the lower end of Central park a
driver at the Dayton street fire de-
partment noticed the deplorable condl-
ton of the horses and demanded that
another third be taken off the load.
This was accordingly done.
A block further and Humane Officer
McAney spied the outfit. He stopped
the forward movement and ordered the
horses stabbed for the night. Today
the animals were rested somewhat and
the goods were delivered In three sepa-
rate installments and tonight the re-
turn was made to Los Angeles.
superintendent Zimmerman at Los
Angeles has been notified of the con-
dition of the animals and is likely to
keep a further watch on them.
