She v*<.s indeed a most estimable young lady whose many accomplishments and charming ways were recognized by all her associates.

The following is kindly contributed by one of her friends: Dora was stricken with a paralytic stroke some time ago and had been very sick, but was improving rapidly; was looking and feeling much better Saturday, p. m. up until 8 o'clock, when she was stricken with paralysis of the heart and died before medical aid could reach her.

Catholic Notes.

On the 7th of April the church will again celebrate Palm Sunday in memory of the triumphant entry of Jdkus into Jerusalem, when he was received by the devo it people with palms, for which

Staig Ownership of Coal Klines.

reason the church blesses palms on tlpit day. By this ceremony the chinc i blings before us how God. signifying the redemption, even by lifeless things, has by the entrance into Jerusalem with palms, represented the victory of Jesus over the prince of darkness, and by the olive branches the fullness of mercy, that we, regarding this mysterious meaning, may implore God for grace. l<> vanquish through Jesus the kingdom of satan, that finally, eecorated with the palm, we may bear part in his glorious resurrection. But above all. the church prays God, that, following 1 the people of Israel in asdritual manner, we may, by faith ami the removal of scandals, main l ready for him a way clear of all stones of stumbling and offence, may openly walk in the footsteps of our Lord, till with niin we enter the heavenly Jerusalem. The Stanislaus Literary Society is preparing a drama in three acts called "The Yankee Detective,” which the members will render soon after Easter, for the benefit of t heir library. The play is very amusing and at the same time teaches many an instructive lesson. The Yankee Detective gives an idea of the methods employed by our detectives in ferreting out the secrets and hiding phi< ' s of culprits, whilst Charles Soy > hard is a true picture of our “dudes” who have love-affairs in evry place where they live, for ~<• salie of money or amusement, ami speak of them with the greatest levity, without thinki ig that they have thereby made many a too-confiding girl, who believed their flattering words, unhappy for life. It is one example out of thousands to prove how deeply some men may fall and may lose the last spark of manly honor and of Christian conscientiousness. The character called“ Mrs. Wil loughby”s lows that there are girls who, from vanity or coquetry,form numerous acquaintances without any serious intention, merely to amuse themselves with the circle of admirers, and, if i need be, to make fun of the credulity of such men as look upon every insignificant or flatteririg word of a pleasure-loving girl as genuine. The moral lesson contained in the play is: that the feelings of the heart ought to be holy ami respected, and no one should dare to attempt any frivolous trilling with them; and that whosoever trifles with the feelings of another loses the name of an honorable person.
