has it's silver lining, and while the
Church wishes us to commemorate
the sorrows which engulfed Him,
she exhorts us to be mindful of the
saving effects of the Passion and
not lose sight Of the joy of Easter
for which it was the necessary pre-
Jude. During the next two weeks
the Church gives herself over in
an especial manner to the contem-
plation of the various incidents in
this most sorrowful period in the
life of her Founder.
The Passiontide begins on the
Saturday evening preceding Pas
sion Sunday with the covering Of
the crucifxes, statues and pictures
of our Lord and of the Saints on
the altar and throughout the
church with plain violet veil.
The only exception made is in
favor of the crosses and pictures
that constitute the Way Of the
Cross which are left uncovered.
The purple veil on the crucifixes
remains in place until after the
solemn unwilling of the principal
crucifx on Good Friday. The
statues and pictures retain their
covering until the Gloria in Ex-
CELSIUS is sung on Holy Saturday.
The yelling of the crucifxes and
statues of Christ is symbolic of the
hiding of the Saviour who, during
this time, did not walk openly
among the people. Another rea-
son also is assigned, namely, the
hiding of Christ's divinity during
the time Of His suffering and
death. The images of the Saints
are yelled because it would not be
proper for the servants to appear
when the Master Himself is not
visible.
During Passiontide the Church
herself puts on, as it were, her
robes of deepest mourning and
calls upon her faithful children to
enter into the spirit Of her litur.

Christ as the source whence comes

A BEFITTING CELEBRATION.

The religious demonstration
made by the Ancient Order of
Hibernians and it's Ladies Aux
iliary at the Cathedral last Sunday
in honor of st. Patrick deserves
more than passing mention. It
was profession of faith Of which
these organizations may justly be
proud. Without conceding that it
was anything more than what. is
expected from such a body of Irish
Catholics, it must be confessed
that, of late years, it has been
looked for in vain. Last year they
held a retreat preparatory to the
performance Of their Easter duty
in a body, but the number who
participated was not nearly so
large as it was on this occasion.
Why these societies have not
always brought their members to
the altar rail in a body every year
is somewhat Of a mystery. The
rank and file, if left to themselves,
would, no doubt, have been seen
there in their corporate capacity
more frequently than they have
been in the past, but for some
years those who were honored
with official recognition by the
order did not. aspire to very
high standard Of practical Cath
oicity. Now that they have broken
away from these unworthy lead
ers it is to be hoped that the prece-
dent established on March II will
be lived up to in future. It places
the Hibernians, as an organiza-
ton, where they should always
have stood and it ought to be re-
peated annually ON St. Patrick s
day itself or on the Sunday near
est to it.
Much of the credit for the sue
cess Of this magnificent demon
stration Of faith and loyalty is
due to the zeal and energy Of the
County Presidents, T. j. Doyle and
Mrs. G. j. Conroy, of the Ancient
Order Of Hibernians and Of the
Ladies Auxiliary, respectively
They received the hearty support
of the officials of the various divi.
sions, as well as Of every loyal
man and woman in the order
From all parts of the city they
came, nearly fifteen hundred
strong, and a finer body Of mer
and women never assembled with
in the walls Of the old Cathedral
They have set a pace for the mem
bers Of other Catholic societies
which will, no doubt, react bene
ficially upon themselves. They de
serve warmest congratulations OF
the splendid showing which they
made, and it is to be hoped thar
this is but the beginning Of a new
era for these societies. They cal
do much to keep alive the spiri
of faith which characterized theil
ancestors by proving to the worlt
that practical Catholicity still oc
cupies the place of honor in tn
heart of every true descendant O
the Emerald Isle. No amount O
parading, or eloquence, or celebra
tons of one kind or another vii
, demonstrate it so convincingly a
their corporate presence at tn
altar rail on st. Patrick's day AM
at other stated times during tn
: year.

Through the Passion Of Christ
our salvation was wrought out

IMPRESSIONS OF THE
YELLOWSTONE PARK
Some of the Things That We
Saw That are Worthy Of
Mention
After reading so much about
the Yellowstone Park it was
natural that we should expect
to feel some degree Of expect
ancy that we would find in the
park such grandeur and beauty
of scenery as is not to be found
outside of it. In this we were
not disappointed, for we found
that aside from the specialties
of the park the scenery in no
way surpasses that of other
sections of the Rocky Mountain
Range. So it is that in reality
there is very little to be said of
the scenery in general and we
will deal only with a few of the
specialties.
The springs bubbling and
sputtering as the boiling lot
water is pushed cut, just as we
see it when the lid of the tea
kettle is tight enough to hold
the steam and push the water
out of the spout, are the most
common sights, in fact they are
so numerous that they are not
noticed. The geyser is simply
a hot spring with enough force
in the steam to shoot the water
upward to an indefinite height.
1t might be compared to a
huge tea kettle with a lore
spout having a small opening.
The weight Of the column of
water in the spout holds the
steam down until the pressure
is sufficient to shoot it out in
an intermittent stream, the
height of which is determined
by the steam pressure. 1t is 8
very simple proposition, but il
worked out on so large and
grand a scale that when stand
ing near one that is busy with
the blow out part of its pro
gram one cannot help feeling
over-awed by it's great force
and magnitude. The "Olc
Faithful" is the most magnifi.
cent of all the geysers because
of the regularity of its explo
sions and the great amount Of
water and steam that is hurlec
nearly two hundred feet in the
air. One must see cold Faith
ful' to appreciate the display
of force and beauty during one
of it's periodic efforts. 1t is II

here June 18th for Los Angeles
and we certainly had a fine
trip. After leaving San Luis
you drive towards the coast and
follow along the ocean for
about 20 miles then the road
turns inland and we passed for
hours through a fine farming
country and pass through the
town of Santa Marie which is
not on the main line of the s.
p, but it is a very pretty and
entertaining little place, owing
I suppose to the rich country
around and it's isolation. The
roads on this part of the trip
were fine.
About noon we reached a more
timbered country and found
that we were climbing slowly
upward and the farther we
went the more we realized that
we were going higher for the
grade became sleeper and the
turns more abrupt; at last the
trail became snake like and
wound itself around the hill
until the summit was reached
and there spread out before us
was a magnificent landscape,
and we found that we we're at
the summit of -Gaviota Pass,
and as we looked back into the
valley from which we came, we
saw the fields and pastures,
looking ahead it seemed one
vast forest into which we
would plunge and wind our
way through again to the sea.
But the mountains we're GER
tainly beautiful, the dark green
of the live oaks contrasting so
prettily at this time of the year
with brown of the grasses.
Down, down we went into
the valley through this beauti-
full canyon, and at last we
found ourselves close to the
sea again and for several hours
followed it, winding in and out
along the foothills. The road
is much more billy than imag-
ined it would be. 400 p. m ,
found US in Santa Barbara with
q punctured tire which we
stopped to fix also to eat a
lunch and then we started on
again. The country around
Santa Barbara is fine and it is
certainly an ideal place for a
home. We soon fonnd our-
selves in the forest again and
looking away to a high noun
tain peak we noticed a road
winding about its summit and
Percy said, II wonder if we go

We spent an afternoon and
night near "Old Faithful" and
witnessed several Of the hour
" outbursts and made the
rounds to see the hundreds of
sights that are located in this
basin. The only difference be-
tween hot springs and the gey-
sers is in degree of force and
so it is that we see geysers of
all sizes. The most frightful
and yeally terrifying of all is
the "Mud Geyser." This is a
big bowl like basin about sixty
feet across and filled with a
thick mixture Of Shiny mud, or
more correctly Stacked lime
such as we use for plastering.
There are three big holes in the
side of the bowl in which the
solution of water ard lime set
ties only to be blown out with
great force by an explosion Of
steam. The explosions remind
ing us of pulsations, occur ev-
cry quarter minute and are &C.
companied by a fierce roaring
and growing that suggested a
cage with a thousand lions and
tigers at feeding time. All in
all we concluded that the "Mud
Gayser" was the most awe in.
spring, but not beautiful of all
the hot stuff that we saw in the
park.
In addition to the great va
riety of hot stuff that is on ex-
hibition, there is a great vari-
ETY. of canyons down which
rush fierce torrents nf water
broken with falls and rapids of
surprising beauty. The cross
ing of the continental divide
was one of the most interesting
features of the trip. For many
miles we climbed the western
slope until we reached an alti-
tude of $500 feet, where we
found a beautiful little lake ly-
ing between two high peaks
and having an outlet at each
end. The water of the west
ends flows into the Missouri
river and the east end into the
Columbia, so that we have the
anomalous condition of the two
great water sheds apparently
crossing each other. This lake
is fed by the melting SHOWS,
and by the way, we had a regu.
lar SNOWFALL scrap there the
9th of July and it was really a
hot day. 1t was our first ex-
perience snowballing in the hot
midsummer.
Another feature of the park
that is largely advertised is the
Grand Canyon of the Yellow
stone river, and it is a sight
that is worthy of special men
tion and attention. 1t is use
