one or two other lads, has run away
from home, and thGs far it has not

the names OF Heitenen and Hannula,
were in the escapade, but it seems
that only one Of these latter two f.
nally left town. The boys did not
get ont Of the city Monday night and

Honors OF The Day

This is one Of the great days in
the calendar OF the Roman Catholic
church and especially dear to the
hearts Of Irishmen whose patron
saint Patrick, is the cardinal figure
OF the anniversary; and il is pccu-
liarly and happily significant that all
the rest oi the world takes decided
interest in the saint and the tributes
oi honor and praise accorded him,
on account Of his pure democracy
and genuine concern for all manner
Of men. The 18th OF March never es-
capes notice anywhere in the world
because there is no remotepess inn
penetrable to the Irish; their univer-
salty accounts for it, admirably,
Speaking OF ST. Patrick's day, recalls
to mind the joke that George Nelson
quietly played on Frank Carney a
couple OF years ago ago here, Nell
son was in San Francisco on the an
niyersary and returned home shortly
afterward. Meeting the genial Irish
man on the street he said in his Elm
nocent" and convincing way: Gar
ney, I saw something in San Fran
cisco that ! never saw anywhere else
in the world" "And what was that?"
asked Carney "Well, sir, they closed
everything in the city OF San Fran
cisco in the way Of public Offices and
buildings; the custom house, city
hall, schools, banks, and practically
all the business houses, in honor of
St Patrick; an unusual honor it
seems to me-" 1T was" said Carney,
81 never heard of the like before, and
it delights me, sir" And away goes
the proud postmaster.to-be and bla-
zons the news to his cronies where
soever he met them, until it finally
dawned upon him that St. Patrick's
day had fallen that year on Sunday.
