lib Society Cir(IeS

Society seems to have robed her
self in sackcloth, literally sprinkled
with ashes. Sewing clubs and teas to
raise aims for charity constitute the
amusement of society followers during
the days of prayer and fasting. This
suddenly assumed demeanor suits the
grand dame well. 1t is a change, and
above all, society loves a change.
During the past few weeks society
affairs have been gradually falling off,
and the past week has been unusually
quiet
The time for receptions has been OBJ
served, the affairs of the past week
having been of that nature.
@ @ @
A unique entertainment, which will
be given in the near future, has been
planned by the members of the Unity
circle. The affair will be called tom
Thumbs Wedding" the participants
all being under Z years of age, and
wearing full court costumes, with pow
dered hair. The bride and groom and
attendants will be under 4 years and
will be chosen from the beauties of
babyland.
Mr.. Nat Brigham, who witnessed a
similar performance in San Francisco,
will have the affair in charge. He will
be assisted by a number of ladies
from Unity circle.
The reception given Friday evening
by Mr.. and Mrs. David Dunbar in
honor of the members of the legis-
lature was the most brilliant affair of
the week. Four hundred and fifty in
vitations had been sent out which in
cluded, besides the Legislature, all state
officials, the supreme court and dis
trict court judges, as well as many of
the leading society people.
The decorations throughout were
beautiful and effective. The large par
lors were adorned with palms and
white roses, while the library was in
red. In this room punch was served
by Miss Preston. The dining room,
which was presided over by Mrs. Jo-
seph z. Game, Mrs. Willard Young and
Miss Hattie Jennings, was decorated
in pink and green. In the hallway,
coffee was served by Miss Hooper. This
corner was half hidden with huge
palms, and was one of the prettiest
corners in the house. Olsen's orches-
ira was also stationed in the hall, the
programme played being an unusually
attractive one.

rescue tramps? Much. Society
is armed with whips to scourge
them from fence corners, from
the shelter of haystacks and out
of old box cars, to keep them
going, forever going, from bad
to worse unable to hold on any
longer they let go, and drop out
Of sight and out OF misery,
whether? God knows.
Conditions produce tramps,
and conditions, demonstrated by
facts which will not down, are
growing worse and that con-

Can they be changed? Ger
tainly. Is it an easy task? No,
it is a herculean, nothing less
than the uprooting ofthe funda-
mental laws upon which our
civilization rests, laws which en-
able the few to rob the many,
and the enactment of laws
which will enable the many to
obtain and be secure in the
possession of the wealth they
created.
Who proposes such radical
changes? Socialists, and only
socialists.
Socialists are attacked, de-
nounced and maligned, certainly,
what of it? The more socialism
is bombarded by the weapons of
error, the more it grows, the
deeper it sends down it's roots in
the mind soil of the world. It
heralds the time when Christ shall
come again, or what is the same
thing, when his spirit shall
again walk abroad and the ma
tons shall feel it's vivifying
power, when the right shall pre-

throned, when men shall have
their own, when tramps shall
disappear and the cooperative
commonwealth shall take the
place Of wage slavery.

A MIGHTY SWORD THRUST.

4 Paoif1c Swordf1sh Penetrated Th1rtee1
Inches of the Irmgard's Bottom.
The swordfsh Is q conbattve monster,
and the weapon with which nature has
provided him is terrible enough when d.
rected against his natural enemies Of the
sea- But it's a foolish fish that runs
amuok with an oak bottomed barkentine,
and its most vicious thrust Is apt to bring
more woe to itself than it's enemy, though
the crew Of the 1rmgard had hard time
Of it on voyage from Honolulu to San
Francisco.
Two DAYS out from Honolulu a heavy
gale struck the ship and lasted for "a
hours. Just as it subsidized it was disoov-
cred that the ship was leaking. It was not
bad leak, but the water was creeping very
slowly up the hold, and under ordinary
circumstances would not have given much
trouble
But the 1rmgard had cargo Of sugar
aboard, and leakage meant big loss unless
it was promptly checked. So the pumps
were rugged. and every two hours a detail
of lnen was set to work for Is or 90 min
utes to keep the water down. This course
was pursued for the entire long voyage.
When the Irmgard was unloaded in
port, a search was made to find the cause
of the leak. A sailor ran across the cause
in the bottom of the hold. It was an inch
of swordfish sword protruding from the
bottom
Examination showed that the sword,
driven with tremendous force, had pene-
trated five inches of planking and eight
inches of lining. 1t was broken off two
inches below the outer sheathing, so that
16 inches of sword came home with the
ship. The monster, after this terrific
thrust, must have exerted tremendous force
to free himself from the grip of the oak,
for he had worked sufficient hole around
the imprisoned sword to permit of con-
siderable leakage
Three or four planks had to be removed
before the sword and it's surrounding wood
could be cut out. The specimen was then
sent to the city MISUNDERSTANDING

Without a Home.

poet HAS Sd1Q.
IF on windy days the raven
Gam Dol like dancing skff,
Not the less he loves his haven
On the bosom of the cliff.
If almost with eagle pinion
Ger the Alps the chamois roam,
Yet he has some nall dominion
Which no doubt he calls his home.'
Bird and beast and reptile
have homes. Savages have
places they call their homes.
The tramp is the one animal in
Gods universe without a home.
The poems of Mexico, the pariahs
of India, have places they call

of which none will disturb them.
The American tramp,-gods!
the American tramp's condition
is more lamentable than that OF
the coyote or prairie dog, or
that of buzzard. The iron
hand of fate and the not less
cruel hand of society is against
him. In rags, hungry and filthy,
upon whom the pitiless storms
forever beat, is by common con-
sent decreed an outcast. There
he stands. Look at him. Esti-
mate him. Measure him by
your standards. Weigh him in
your balances. Analyze him in
the crucib1e of moral and reli-
gious and civilizing chemistry,
and what do you find? Facul-
ties distorted, life deformed,
hopes blasted, aspirations dead.
What about his soul? Let it
alone. Even the tramp was
made "but little lower than
God,' and when our civilization
has done it's utmost, it has not
been able to contaminate the
soul, forever beating it's wings
to escape from it's cage.
The tramp is a production of
our civilization. Who cares for
the tramp? Is anything pro-
posed whereby the tramp can be
rescued? Certainly. We build

rich. Ministers drawing fat

The Coming Prize viii.

Carson, Nevada, has taken on new
life since the selection OF that place for
the fight between Corbett and Fitzsim-
mons, which is scheduled to come off On
March 18th. The plans for the amphi-
theater have been accepted and the work
of construction has already begun. In
shape it is to be perfect octagon. The
building will seat about 1900 people,
and the prices of seats range from IS to
$40 according to the location.
New York will have q representation OF
at least 500 at the fight, while Chicago
sports have already engaged 70 Pullman
sleepers Tor the trip. Many other points
will send special trains while Portland,
Spokane, Seattle and Tacoma are arrang-
ing to send large delegations, although
the rates over the Southern Pacific are
anything but satisfactory and many are
figuring on going from Portland to San
Francisco by boat. The round-trip fare
from Portland to Carson is $40s0, by
rail, and lower rate is expected to be
made by steamer to San Francisco and
thence by rail, although it has not as yet
been given publicity.

value Of Old Apple Trees.

Don't be in haste about cutting down
old apple trees because they are moss
covered and have dead branches and pro-
duce inferior fruit. Many apple trees
have been known to live from $50 to 200
years and bear good fruit. Trees from
40 to 60 years of age oHght to bear fine
crops of choice apples. II these Old trees
have been neglected they can be restored
to vigorous growth and healthy bearing
condition. The old apple is the best
paying piece of property on the ranch.
In order to bring back old neglected
trees into healthy bearing condition, it
is necessary to break up the ground by
blowing or use spring tooth harrow and
mulch them literally with we'll rotted
COW manure; scrape off the moss from
the trunks and branches with q hoe cut
off the old decayed branches, thus allow
ing new ones to take their place; apply a
peck Of lime to the soil under each tree
and apply the proper spraying remedies.
Thus trees will renew their vigor and con
tinue for many years to produce an abun
dance OF fine, delicious apples. Ledger.

The Gibraltar Fortress,

The greatest fortress in the world is
Gibraltar. The height of the rock is over
1890 feet, and this stupendous precipice
is pierced by miles of galleries in the
solid stone, portfolios for cannon being
placed at frequent intervals. The rock
is perfectly impregnabe TO the shot of an
enemy, and by means Of the great eleva-
ton, a plunging fire can be directed from
an enormous height upon hostile fleet
From the water batteries to a distance OF
two-thirds up the rock one tier after an
other is presented to the enemy. A gar
rison of from 1000 to 10000 is maintained
with provisions and ammunition for six
months siege. In 1879 the celebrated
siege lasted three years. The fortress
was successfully defended by 1000 Brit
ish and attacked by an army of over 49,
900 men, with 1000 pieces of artillery.
forty seven sail OF the line, ten great
floating batteries and great numbers of
smaller boats. For months over 5000
shells a day were thrown into the tower.
