That "GOOD Old QUAKER
The Quaker Doctor" Gets a
Head" Put on Him.
Leaves Town IN Hurry with his
Aggregation.

For the past two weeks Pullman has
been entertained" BY travelling COM
bination calling themselves the Quaker
doctors" They have given nightly
shows in Reaney's hall, the object OF
this calling together of the multitude
being to sell lot ot concoctions known
as the Quaker remedies. The show part
of the proceeding was furnished by a
number of musicians and comedians,
but the major portion CT the program
consisted of lengthy dissertations by II
long haired individual who eXtoled the
merits of the various quaker remedies
and referred time and again to the good
old quaker doctor who was with the
aggregation, and whose part of the pro-
gram it was to give free advice, and sell
at enormous rates certain "surc cures. "
The game was good one, and the quak-
ers' pocket books were stilling rapidly,
and on Wednesday they were to go to
Moscow to reap harvest Of the guljbe.
But Tuesday they decided on short no.
tice to close their engagement in toe Pa
louise country, and the remaining dates
were cancelled without notice to the pub
lie. On the morning of that day q lady,
who was being treated by the 'quahers, >
reported to her husband that she had
been insulted by the ''old doctor" while
in consultation with him at his Office at
/ the hotel, and the husband was natur-
ally much wrought up over the Smatter.
Accompanied by numberof his friends
he visited the ''doctor," and when the
consultation was over the 'doctor'' was
laid up for repairs-his head had served
the purpose OF All up-to-date striking
bag, and was gaily decorated with rec
4 and blues Tii1'@ fs&ilals were also nod
] fed to be out OF town before the shades
of another night had fallen.
They left, and lett in a hurry, too, not
even waiting for train to bear them
from the city, but were driven in a
sleigh to COfax, where they took the
train for parts far removed from reach oI
the angry Palouseites. 1t will take ths
Old "quaker's" head some time to come
back to its original rotundity, and it is
to be hoped that he will have learned i
i lesson, for he may not escape so easily
at the hards of the next enraged hus
band.

The concert given by the college giee
club on Friday evening, January l4th,
was a decided success. In spite Of the
inclement weather and the difficulty OF
climbing the college hill through the
drifted snow, more than 250 people were
present. The stage was beautifully dec
GRATED with the club colors, yellow and
blue, which hung in festoons in front OF
the state, and the letters sc C' sus-
pended below, while at the rear of the
rostrum was hung the large national
flag belonging to the college. During
the evening the audience was favored
with two excellent selections by the
Sappho Quartette. The first was Robin
Adair, composed byDudley Buck, and
the second Legends" by Moehring.
Both selections met with loud applause
and hearty encores. The assistance rem
dered by the Quartette was highly APP
preciated by the individual members of
the glee club. OF the club songs, "Rom-
go and Juliet" was perhaps the most
amusing. The Latin song, "Silvarumque
Flumina," written for the club by Prof.
Barry, "Until the Dawn" and Gwen
ing song" were well received and de-
serve special mention. BY special re-
quest of the audience, Prol. Darrow
sang ballad entitled "You," which
was also well received. The club has
made great improvement since last year,
and now holds prominent place among
the student organizations here. The
glee club has come to- stay, and under
the able direction of Prof. Darrow is
bound to become one OF the most im-
portant features OF the college, as well as
means of culture and training for its
mem bers.
The club has arranged for concerts at
the following places: Colfax, Feb. II;
Walla Walla, Feb. IS; Waitsburg, Feb.
49, The Sappho Quartette has kindly
consented to accompany the club to Col
fax, and assist in the concert there.
