We know OF no place where an

THOSE DIAMOND MEDALS.
Ladies Make 4 Great Success Socially
and Finaneially.


The ladies' in charge Of the work of
raising the money with which to buy the
diamond medals for the winning team in
the rock drilling contest today, report that
they realized 4 sufficient sum for the pur.
pose from the ice cream festival. Minot
Austin gave them a ten dollar nugget
from his Winterville platers, which in.
creased the fund very materially. G.. n.
fenner now owns the nugget.
From social stand point. the festival
was one Of the pleasanteSt affairs ever
given in Sumpter. The booth was beau.
iifully decorated with evergreens, potted
plants and bunting, and was hung with
many Chinese lanterns. Refreshments
were served in the afternoons and even.
ings, the tables being attended by Miss
Worswick, Miss Walder, Miss Jackson.
Misses Gertrude and Kate Moore,
all dressed attractiveIy, wearing pretty
white aprons and caps. Mrs. Griffith
acted rs cashier. II was the in.
tention to have the festival continue
only three days, but the ladies Of
Sumpter took 50 much interest in the at.
tair and contributed so generously that
the supply Of cakes and other delitatieS
were not disposed Of in that time, and It
was decided to keep open house another
day. During the entire time the booth was
thronged with people and the occasion
was one Of uninterrupted social enjoyment.
But the most gratifying feature In con.
nection with this event Is the fact that
every day reports are received here that
drilling teams from every camp IN eastern
Oregon will come to Sumpter to compete
for these handsome trophies offered by
the ladies. After having fixed the purse
at $500 for this contest, Baker City raised
II TO S32s, after Sumpter offered $3.50, In
the hope OF drawing the miners to the
celebration there. But the ladies Of
Sumpter have offered reward that they
evidently value more highly than Bakers
few extra dollars.
The thanks Of this community are sure.
" due to Mrs. Brock, Mrs. Robbins, Mrs.
Dwyer, Mrs. Wallace, the committee In
charge, and all the other ladies who
worKed SO hard in making this enterprise
the success It undoubtedly Is.

RELIGIOUS CENSUS
OF Philadelphia To Be Taken To-
morrow.

PHILADELPHIA, Feb. 21.-Church
workers of all denominations are pre-
pairing for the religious census of Phil
adelphia which will be taken tomor-
row. The object is to determine the
number of church goers and also to
discover the principal reasons why go
large percentage of the city's pop
ulation do not attend church at
all.
Preparations for the census takirg
have been going on for many weeks
past and it is expected that the stat
istics gathered will be the most COM
plete and valuable ever compiled. The
entire territory of the city has been
app Jrtioned in districts among the
different denominations SO that the
whole work may be completed in one
day.
A great obstacle has been overcome
by the voluntary offer of the Volun-
TIERS and the Salvation Army to gather
the desired figures in Chinatown and
the slum districts where the ordinary
church workers would be at great
disadvantage.

campaigns that had been fought. and
declared that where there had been
failure, 1t was due to the foreign born
voters. This, allied to the liquor ir-
terests, had succeeded in defeating
amendments granting equal rights to
women.
And go the meeting went on until the
anti-suffrsgists cited the case of Ken
lucky as an instance where women
would be out of place at the polls. The
chief speaker said:

necessity for using military force
against the women Of the state. The

would have existed In Kentucky If the
women as we'll as the men had been
compelled to take part In the unhappy
