Talk About the Coming Tournament---

The fire department of The Dalles is

time past. Chief Engineer Judd 5.
Fish is in receipt of numerous replies to
letters sent out to various departments
of Oregon and Washington, respecting
the proposed tournament, and these re-
plies are filed with familiar greetings.
The Dalles department will become
more closely allied with the state fire.

facilities, provided by the council this

future fires that may inflict their
presence upon the city. At a recent

Mayor Mays assures Chief Fish, that
whatever the department requires for
energetic and useful activity the council

state generally prefer staying at home
on the fourth of July (which, of all
days, is the one most liable for local
fires; but if it does not come off on the
day we celebrate, it is pretty sure to
materialize later on.

Events of Sunday in the City on
the st. Croix.
District court reconvenes today, and
the following cases on the calendar are
set for trial by a jury: L. &. Kitty VS..

DR.. F. A. Lenox is in Chicago, and
will return tomorrow.
The remains OF Archie Mahoney, who
died Friday night in Chicago, arrived
here early yesterday morning, and the
funeral will be held today from St.
Michael's church.
Residents of this city are awaiting
with much interest the outcome of the
murder case in which George Peters is
the defendant. His relatives and attOr-
ney are carefully selecting evidence to
prove his insanity, and every act of his
mentally unbalanced will be submitted
to the Jury soon to be impaneled. Many
are of the opinion that he is insane, and
others think that he was per-
fectly responsible for his actions
when he killed V. G. Seward. The
state has a very strong case. but the
defense claims to be able to prove be-
yond doubt that he is and has been
insane for some time. Peters is locked
ND in cell in the county jail, and is
apparently as uncOncerned as he was
the day after the murder WAS commit
ted when he glOated over his crime. Ii
Peters is not insane he is certainly the
most cold-blooded and heartlesS MUIR
derer ever put upon the stand for his
life in this state.

The first number OF the second part
of the programme was the Scotch SYM

IL revelation to the listener who has

of the introduction. though characteristic
in its poetic expression and graceful
finish, is powerful in the extreme, and
reveals the religious spirit OF Bach.

Mendelssohn.
Only the first two movements were
given, but the third and fourth are
promised tor later concert. YeSter
days included the second movement, a
fine scherZO, III which this meIster was
SO successful; but the schcrZo of the
Scotch symphony. though not lacking
in grace, is compund of fire and spirit,
of Highland heather and bagpipe
screaming. The ensemble of the or
chestra was the finest in this selection,
and the tones were best sustained.

later programme. The afternoon closed
with a walzer from 'Ritter Pasman."
Strauss latest operatic success in
Europe 1t is very characteristic of this
lIght-hearted composer, and contains
some OF his most sparkling strains.
And why was it that the audience, which
seemed to appreciate the rest of
the programme so highly, should
consider this postlude or re
cessional hymn? Il was one of the
liveliest numbers on the programme,
and the orchestra did some of its best
work, but the audience received it with
the turning of backs, putting on Of rub
bers and coats. The programme was
not too long to gain the closest atten-
ton of any music-loving public, and
those who go to hear the music don't
want it disturbed by rush, as though
"PaSman" we're an attacking brlgand
instead of the charmingest Of knights.

WHICH WILL YOU Be?
A Nice Woman, Mans Greatest
Comforter; Or the Reverse?

A Nice Woman, Mans Greatest
Comforter; Or the Reverse?
A woman can be so nasty and she can
be so nice! She is seldom between.
She is nasty all the way through when
she worries man with her petty jeal-
ousies and mean insinuations.
She is nice all the way through when
she gives him word of encouragement
for his good deeds, and in this way in
duces him to do better.
She is mean all the way through
when, because Of her own extreme van
ity. she makes another woman suffer.
She is nice all the way through when,
out of the goodness of her heart, she
gives another woman joy.
She is mean all the way through when
hospitality is trouble and courteous
words bore.
She is nice all the way through when
she speaks pleasant words every Gay
and finds no trouble in being gracious.
She is mean all the way through
when she holds up her husband OF chill
.dren to ridicule.
She is nice all the way through when
she finds out the best that is in them
and encourages it and them until they
are better than good.
Sometimes she is a combination of
meanneSs and niceness, and the one
that comes to the surface will crowd
out the ether. That's what we women
want to pray for. To lose all the mean
ness and be as nice as we possibly can.

as liable as the rest OF us to be worrying
over tie rent bill. or, perhaps. While he
reckleSSly gives away handfulS Of jew
els, whether he can afford Bass ale
after the performance or will have to
stick to beer.
Another remarkable thing is the way
actors drink. They either ''Quatf deep"
and guIp down big glass of whisky or
wine in the twinkling of an eye, or else
they sip as daintily as a butterfly. The
ordinary way OF drinking is not to be
thought of for moment.
1t is astonishing, too, how easily one
can get intoxicated on the stage. When
it is necessary for the plot that the vii
lain should get the dupe drunk he can
always do it by giving the aforesaid
dupe about two drinks. Three will
simply make him unconscious of his eX-
istence.
1t will take at least twenty beers after
the performance for the dupe TO get In

or not.
AS far as my experience goes, the
present practice. so dear to stage man
ayers, of having skirt dancers burst
into parlor and exhibit their agility
is not quite in conformity with the Gus
toms Of polite society.
OF course, in tarce-comedies one can
expect anything, and generally without
being disappointed. But this skirt
dancing business is getting to be good
deal of bore.
1t invades everything theatrical, and
is often fairly forced into refined come
dies and legitimate dramas.
The eccentrieties of skirt dancers
are becoming so marked that it is hard
to imagine what the end will be. From
graceful courtesieS fnales have been
evolved by these young women which
include the farming of somerSaults and
doing ''splits."
From an athletic point of view split
may be very interesting performance.
but it is not quite the sort of thing that
young ladies indulge in when they
dance for Joy in their newly discovered
rich uncle's paror. except on the stage.
And yet the popular cry is that the
stage is given up too much to realism!

ITS EIGHTEENTH SEASON.
Promising Opening of the Seiber'
Concert series.

Promising Opening of the Seibert
Concert series.
Seibert's orchestra began the first of
a series of winter concerts at Germania
Turner hall yesterday afternoon. 1t is
the beginning of their eighteenth sea
son. and the popularity of the past
years and the appreciative audience
certainly warrant their continuance.
The programme for yesterday included
a variety of orchestral works. There
were choice selections, tone pictures,
and the pop lar programme music"
Little abstract music was attempted,
unless the leading symphony be so
claSSed, but there was nothing of the
trashy, catchy order, and MIR. Seibert
shows his good musical sense in prohib-
iting such numbers.
The programme also included two
soloists. Miss Amalie Ripe, the So
prano, has just returned from the royal
conservatory at Stuttgart, and is pupil
of the famous Herr Prof Ernest Koch.
The artist was suffering from a severe
cold which affected the lower register,
but the high notes were clear and flute
like, and the middle register full and
round. Miss Ripe sang a cavatina from
Meyerbeer'S "Robert der Teufel' with
expression and power. An enthusiastic
encore greeted her.
Quite the daintiest work was done by
Miss Josie Smaller, German maedchen
of eleven years. But die kleine kuenst-
lerin revealed much Of the artist
and little of rhe amateur in her
sScenes de Ballet" concerto by
De Beriot. Her bowling is especially
clean and clear, and warmth of express
sion is not lacking.
The programme opened with the ia
miliar overture from Flotow's MAR
tha." Some of the best orchestral eff
fleets were achieved in this number.
The creScendo passages were very fine,
especially the progressive stress of the
strings against the first sustained air by
the French horn and the closing cres-
cendo rush. The strings did excellent
work all through the programme, and
seem under much better aud finer con-
troll than before.
A selection from Mascagni's Cav
aleria Rusticana, arranged by Vie
land, followed. 1t contained some of
the grandeSt harmoneS, contrasted with
! the sweetest melodies which this opera
nOldS, and the apparent Wagnerian
touches were brought out finely.
The selection is difficult one,
and there were some breaks

| passages, but it is piece OF much prom

Princeton Boys Soon to Make
Music in st. Paul.
The Glee, Banjo and Mandolin clubs
of Princeton university will visit st.
Paul on their vacation trip on Dec. 26,
and give a concert in the Peoples
church. While the Princeton boys
have not been to st. Paul for a number
of years, the concert given by them on
their first visit here is still remembered
by many with pleasure. All society
will doubtless show their appreciation
of the visit of these young col
legians by turning out in full force
and giving them handsome welcome.
The Princeton clubs are especially
noted for their rendition of purely col
lege selections and the excellent play
ing of their instrumental clubs. The
alumni are exerting themselves to give
the undergraduates of their alma mater
hearty welcome. The concert will be
given under the patronage of several of
st. Paul's leading society ladies. A tea
will be rendered them in the afternoon,
and in the evening large dancing re-
ception will be given in their honor at
the home of Mir. and Mrs. r. C.Jetferson
on Summit avenue.
