PENDLETON'S NEW SEWER

pENDI ,ETON. Nov 10.-The sewer
system which, according to the con-
tract with the builder, G. H. Suther-
land. was to have been completed ana
ready for inspection by the city coun-
ell by November 1, will not be nn1sh-
ad much before the first of the year.
Every means is being employed now
aver to rush the work to complexion
as soon as possible, and it is the nope
Of Mr.. Sutherland to have the work
done by not later than the middle OF
December. The city council will read

GATES the difficulties with which MI
Sutherland has had to contend, cnle1
among which being the delay of mate
rial at the beginning and subsequent
trouble in hiring men who UNDERSTOOD
the nature of the work.
The sewer could have been COM
Melted possibly at the date for ~nlcn

land preferred to jeopardize his own
nocket rather than to hasten the work
without thorough methods. For this
reason the system, when competed

AGED WASHER is IN TROUBLE.
ro''ows Oakland Girl and Is Thrashed
Soundly by Her Uncle.

oAN FRANCISCO, Cal, Nov. 10
A. {. Dennison, an aged "masher" from
Los Angeles, where he says he is an
orchardlst has been given three
months in the county Jail by Judge
CONAN for insulting pretty 17-year-
ola Mabel De Long near the Central
theatre Thursday evening.
Inc judge, in pronouncing the SEN
tence, said he was pleased to pro-
ilouhce punishment in such a case,
and remarked that there were too
many of Dennison's kind loose in the
city. He said he believed in making
the punishment as severe as possible
IN the hope that it would have the eff
fect OF giving full protection to wo-
men.
MISS De Long was on the way from
Oakland, where she lives, to visit the
nome of ]. Wilson. an uncle, who
lives on elemental street, near Ninth
she was walking past the Central
theater when she was accosted by Den
nison, and the man persistently fol-
lowed her to the door of her uncles
residence.
The girl informed her uncle of the
insult later, and few minutes later
the 'masher" was in the hands of the
police with a badly battered face as
a result of the beating Wilson gave
him.

ADJUSTMENTS
Vests MinstreIs Toniaht.

With the single exception of the
circus, there is no more popular form
of amusement furnished the American
theater-goer than that given in the
form of minstrel entertainment. Per-
haps 1t may be claimed with some
basis of truth. that the minstrel enter
talnment is even more popular, or at
least equally so to the circus.
Certain it is that while the minstrel
organizations are before the public
much the whole year. the circus is
limited, on account of physical condi-
tons. to small part of the year.
1t certainly goes without saying,
that as far as popularity goes, the
minstrel and circus form Of enter
tainment are decidedly away ahead of
any other forms of amusement offer
ed the American public. 1t is also a
fact that in America both of these
amusement offerings have been
brought to the highest state of eff
cheney and merit. AS the names of
Barnum and Bailey stand in con-
nection with the circus, so does the
name Of West Ministries and Sanford
B. Ricaby stand with minstrelsy. In
both cases the names stand for the
very best in their respective fields.
When one attends the entertainment
offered by either he knows and feels
confident that there is nothing better
or as good, to be seen in that partic-
ular line elsewhere. This confidence
and assurance on the part of the public
is gained by always keeping faith with
their respective patrons. Nothing is
promised but what is given, nothing
is given but what is of the very best
Mr.. Ricaby, the Well-knoWn mana
ger of West Minstrels, promises the
patrons this season, that he will give
them minstrel entertainment in it's
entirety, that will be superior to any
thing that he has attempted in the
past. This assertion Of Mr.. Ricabys
is very strong one, when one remem-
bers the magnificent entertainments
that have always been given by the
West Minstrels heretofore. If his
promise will be fulfilled, and we have
every reason to believe it will be. then
lovers of minstrelsy will be all the
more satisfied and pleased, and the
fact will also enhance the name of
Mr.. Ricaby in the estimatio of all
concerned. At the Walla Walla opera
house tonight.
