coMPANY e PROMENADE.

The committee appointed months ago to make preparations fer the annual Company G ball, to be given at City hall New Years. eve, have arrange ments So far completed that they are able to make public the chief features that go to make a successful ball from every point of view. To no inexperi- enced hands have these arrangements Ebeen left, but to a committee practiced in the arts of entertaining the public on social lines and possessing taste and discretion regarding decoration and music. And when they promise that the event to come will eclipse even their former effort, then there is req ison to expect that it will be the most bFilliant public ball ever given in this city.
 They first let US into the secret of the decorations. which will hide the old walls. and transform not only the dancing hall. but corridors. stairway and lower railways into realms where in elfs and goblins are won't to revel This work is being done by the New Haven.

 old hall will be decorated in a style lharmonizing with the other drapings. and scheme suggested by the deco Tator will he followed which will, it is expected, throw the melody to the au- ditorium instead of into the flies and scene loft. as is often the case.

The dancing floor will be waxed and polished. The electric light effects Iare being designed by George NJ. Chap man. 6 Co. and many novel and in lgeniaus effects will be used to give briiltancy and tone to the picture.
 When it is announced that the con- cert and promenade music will be ren- .'derea by Colts armorv band. with Scott Snow executing time maneuyers with his baton expectations are at the stTaining point, and when they an- inoupce that Faulmann's orchestra. will furnish music for the dancing. noth ing further may he added The com frnittees proceed one point farther than the circus slaouter who sings that nothing will be sold on the seats,' by sdeclarjnr that nothing whatever will be sold in the hall. but that dancers are freely invited to partaIye of lemon Jade and light luncheon. which will be served by uniformed attendants during the evening All of the hoxes have been sold excent one double box re- served for guests of the company from out of town.

PLUcKY GIRL IMMIGRANTS.
Hundreds Are Preparing to Leave EngIaal to Seek New Homes
 in South Africa.

The domestic servant problem is keen in England. It is critical in South Africa-so much so that the high commissioner recently issued an appeal for respectable and healthy English girls willing to work and make South Africa their home. In re- sponse to this appeal 50 plucky young women from various parts of the Brit ish Isles have sailed for South Africa, says London Report.
 These girls have been selected for their physical fitness by the South Af- rican expansion committee, and it is the present intention to send out 100 giris a month until the needs of tke housewives of the Transvaal, Rho- desia, Cape Colony and Natal are satis- fled.
 There were many affecting leavetak- ings at the committees .hostel" in Upper Westbourne terrace, where most of the girls lived until the time of their departure, but the girls were full of hope for the future. An escort matron will accompany them all the way, and see them installed in the committee's .'hosteP' at Johannes burg.
 In view of the expected increase of women emigrants to South Africa, the horticultural college at Swanley, Kent, which is under the supervision of the Kent county council, has opened branch for the training of women for colonial life. The course will oc- cupy about year. The syllabus in cludes seed sowing, fruit packing, jam making, cow keeping, dairy work, carpentering, household management, colonial hygiene and native language.

AwRONG ECHO.

The Elma Echo man got the report OF
the road meeting at Aberdeen into his
Uranium with spiral twist, and then
.proceeded to throw seventeen kinds OF
fits over the idea (entirely original with
himself that Aberdeen had appointed
v ,mmittee of three to bulldose the oounty
commissioners into bonding the county
for half million dollars for road build
ing. If the Ecao will read that report
again he will find that this committee
wac appointed to call meeting OF the
representative citizens OF the county for
the purpose OF considering the ADVISE
bility of ussuing bonds for road building
purposes, and that no sum was specified.
There was comittee, however, OF %
Aberdeen citizens appointed to DEMAND
OF the commissioners an appropriation
for the road from Aberdeen and Monte
sano and DEMAND is the proper word on
this occasion. We have petitioned lorg
enough A petition, containing the
names of over 1000 citizens, from all
parts Of the county asking for this road,
has been totally ignored by the commits
sioners. The north side OF Grays Harbor
is competent TO elect such commits
sioners this fall as it chooses. Two OF the
present hoard are candidates for re.elec-
ton, and are in position NOW to insure

tap more than one-half the population
and three.fifth OF the taxable wealth OF
the county, and, in view OF the contempt
with which they treated the petition.
the word DEMAND is eminently fitting
and perfectly proper, as conveying just
. what is meant.

just what information, concerning the
water and sewer systems, the committee
OF the city council can obtain by visiting
Seattle and Tacoma is not clear. The
difference in the size of those two cities
and Aberdeen precludes the idea of any
similitude in the matter of sewage and
.water systems, while a visit to some
cities of about our size might discover
some valuable ideas. An investment of
: &s in the American Manual of Water
vworks will give more information along
That line than a siy-months junketing

Why is it the poets find SO much
sadness in the spring season? One
says it recalls dead loves, another
that violets bring tears, (the price
probably.) But after all, maybe it is
the house painting, the carpet beat

Easter bills. that shed a blueness
over the world.
