A. D. u. w Visitors.

The excursion train bearing the
delegates of the Supreme Lodge
A. 0. U. w, arrived from Albany
on the trip up the Valley at 2:3C
Monday afternoon. Mem oers oI
Corvallis lodge and many citizens
met the delegates at the depot, and
gave them hearty greeting.
Beautiful boquets of choice flow
ers were distributed among the
visitors, who represent all sections
of the United States. They were a
merry company and expressed
themselves as delighted with Ore
gon and the hospitality of her
people.
A prominent figure was Webb
McNalI, of Gaylor, Kansas, the
newly elected Supreme Master of
the order for the United States and
Canada: He was the butt of much
good-natured raillery on the part of
his fellow lodgemen and ladies, but
he was ever ready with a reply.
After a stay of 80 minutes, the
party numbering about 1000 left
over the WestsiGe for Portland.

Senior Play Was a Success.

The senior class entertained their
friends with the grand play, "Ingomar,"
at the Opera House, Tuesday evening.
The undertaking was ambitious, but it
was accomplished quite creditably. The
play is exceedingly difficult, and those
familiar with its requirements, were ap-
prehensive Of its success fin the hands of
wholly inexperienced players. While
there was no attempt at use of. the stage,
in the sense of grooping the players and
producing effects, the various characters
read their lines most intelligently. and
maintained their conception oftheir roles.

ticular star" a more finished perform

portrayal OF "Polydor. " Miss Thomp-
son, made an excellent "Parthenia. y
Her work at the close of the third act
was one of the cleyerest Lifts ci the eve

"Actea," and Mr.. Stiewer made a cred
liable "Tlmarck. " The remainder of The
cast Contributed to the success OF the eve

propriate.

Dr.. Wise said in part:

The things of which you are most in
need today, as you 60 forth to wage lifes
battles, are vision and character. As the
Hebrew proverbialist has put it, "Where
there is no vision the people perish"
Men speak of the gift of vision The
term does not signify that vision is a
gilt, something fallen from the heights of
heaven to tbe depths of earth. There is
no gift in that sense. We must meet the
gifts of God more than half way. The
things of God are not to be had for the
asking. Let your vision be your best
gift to yourself, selfglven, self-Wrought,
seif-achieved.
The want of vision fills the legal fra
ternity with pettifoggers instead of up
holders and upbuilders of the law; the
medical profession with quacks and
charlataLs instead of physicians and
healers: the ministry with cunning
priests and calculating bigots, instead of
fearless prophets and preachers, wise,
tolerant and unafraid; the arena of
political lite with shrewd and uuprin-
cinled politicians, instead of far-seeing
and conscientious statesmen the fields
with worthless farmers instead of with
skilled agriculturists the factories with
hands instead of heads.
The state educates you that you in
turn may educate the state. The aim of
the state is not to make men scholars,
but scholars men. Formerly the scholar
was the servant of the church; today
the university and the church must serve

More than 600 loads of gravel
were hauled and placed on the
the roads of this vicinity up to last
Monday evening. The gravel was
hauled from the bar across the
river just above town. Late Mon
day afternoon the ferryboat sprung
a leak and it was only by vigorous
hailing that the work could be con-
tinued during the balance of the
afternoon. Tuesday morning the
boat was submerged in the water
and the work of hauling had to be
discontinued. The assistance Of
Fred Blumhart, an experienced
ferryman, was secured and the boat
repaired, when teams and men
were again put at work. Al one
time nearly thirty teams were haul
ing gravel. This is graveling the
roads at very lively rate.

ST. JOE WANTS THE STATION
Michigan Town Working to Beat Illinois
in Securing a Naval Institution on
the Great Lakes.

st. Joseph. Mich, Dec. 23.-The COM
mittee to secure for st. Joseph the
naval station on the great lakes is
jubilant over the fact that the Ohio
and Michigan representatives have de-
cided to pool against Representative
FOsS' favored site near Waukegan,
Ills. The members of the committee
are satisfied that Ohio cannot win and
establish the school at Put-in-Bay and
that Illinois will meet the same fate
without the aid of the Michigan dele
CATION. 1t is said that as Il second
choice Representative FOss will favor
the st. Joseph site inspected by the
naval committee a few weeks ago.
Two reasons are given why it is be
lieVed FosS Will indOrse the st. Joseph
site. providing the school is located
on the east Shore: first, because the
Chicago representative has frequently
visited mis- father-in-law. George w.
Fritz, of this city. and has been favor
ably impressed with st. Joseph: sec
Ond, it is reported that he recently
purchased the George +. Cummings
fruit farm iii South st. Joseph. and
therefore has Il personal interest in the
future welfare of this city.

ROCK ISLAND MERCHANTS
REPORT BIG BUSINESS

l. Christmas trade. both wholesale
and retail. is far in advance of what it
was last wear at this time. so report
the business men of the city in every
line. This is remarkable. too. when
the difference in the weather of the
two years is taken into consideration
Last wear there was a difference of
almost SO degrees in the temperature,
the thermometer ranging all the way
from one to ten degrees below zero
mark. while yesterday it hung around
the 40 above.
The dealers in candy. notions,
fruits. nuts and other holiday lines
report a larger holiday trade than
last wear by fully 40 per cent. \
trip through the retail district
during the afternoon proved the as
sertion. as every store was packed
with a Surging mass of humanity. and
although all of the stores had in
creased help it was with difficulty
that the customers could be waited
upon. This was not the condition in
one store alone. but in all. and every
attache from bundle boy to proprie-
tor. was kept on the jump from the
at o'clock in the morning until
1890 at night.
Talks with the merchants brought
forth the fact that a much better
class of goods in every line is being
purchased this year than last. and
that this is the case not only with the
well-tO-do customers, but with those
of moderate means as well. One bust
ness man stated that last year was
the banner year Tor him ut the holi-
day season, but thus far this year had
it badly beaten.
Not only are the merchants crowd
ed with business. but the express Of
fees sandpostofficesa as well. The former
have extra wagons and messengers
engaged for the holiday season, and
the postoffice has been enlarged dur
ing the rush.
All the railroads entering the city
brought in large numbers of shoppers
from long distance, and from every
direction.

IOwE's Highest State Tribunal Overridden

Keokuk, Ia, Dec. 23.-Judge Nc
Pherson. of the federal court, handed
down an opinion yesterday in the case
of the Unitad States vs.. the Adams
Express company, in which the cor
poratiop was indicted for carrying on
the business of retail liquor dealer
without having paid the special tax as
required by law.
The federal court in its opinion holds
that the express company is only an
agent of the vendors incarrying liquors
and collecting and returning money.
AS the express company did not sell
liquors it was not engaged in the bust
ness of a liquor dealer. The court in
this opinion has overridcn the decision
of the supreme court of Iowa.
