CHAPTER III.
SIMPLICITY OF THOUGHT.

slMILlOlI1 VI lhOOGhIs
TT is not alone among the practical
manifestations of our life that
there is need of making clear
i ing; the domain OF our ideas Is in
the same case. Anarchy reigns in hui
man thought We walk In the woods
without compass or sun, lost among
the brambles and briers Of infinite de-
tail.
When once man has recognized the
fact that he has an aim, and that this
aim is to be n man, he organizes his
thought accordingly. Every mode Of
thinking or judging which does not
make him better and stronger he re-
jects as dangerous.
And first of all he fees the too COM
mon contrariety Of amusing himself
with his thought. Thought is q tool,
with its own proper function; IL isn't
toy. Let us take an example. Here Is
the studio of painter. The implements
are all in place; everything indicates
that this assemblage Of means is ar
ranged with view to an end. Throw
the room open to apes. They will climb
on the benches, swing from the cords,
rig themselves in draperies Golf them
selves with slippers, juggle with brush
es, nibble the colors and pierce the can
vases to see what Is behind the paint.
| don't question their enjoyment. Ger
tainly they must find this kind OF ex-
ercise extremely interesting. But an
atelier is not made to let monkeys
loose in. No more is thought ground
for acrobatic evolutions. A man worthy
of the name thinks as he is, as his
tastes are; he goes about 1t with his
whole heart, and not with that fitful
and sterile curiosity which, under pre-
text of observing and noting every
thing. runs the risk of never experience
ing a deep and true emotion or accom-
plishing right deed.
Another habit in urgent need of cor
rection, ordinary attendant on conven-
tional life, is the mania for examining

for kiss:"To .one piece of dark piazza

ounces of attraction, one of romance,

floflating ruffle and one or two whisk-

Amuse m ents
"GIRL FROM DIXIE"
At the WalIa WaIIa Opera House To
morrow Night.

The Seattle Post-Intelligencer says:
"A Girl From Dixie" at the Grand
last night, took the house by storm.
She did not do it at once, but after she
and her confreres commenced going
they struck progressive gait that
lifted the spectators into delirum of
ecstatic joy. The story may be told
in a few words-catchy music, pretty
girls and D. L. Don, but the greatest of
these is Don. He is a whole show in
himself The audience could listen
and when he dances he takes a straight
hold on the risibles of the spectators.
The play starts with rural school
district scene in Maryland which IS as
humorous to the normal adult mind as
the comic supplements of yellow jour-
nails. 1t is instinct with decay, though
some parts are almost mellow enough
to be funny. 1t is assumed to be ne
cessary to the argument Of the plot,
but as an underpinning it is too fragile
and might we'll be removed to allow
the rest Of the production forrest upon
solid ground.
Then the players warm up to their.
work and the show runs on with dash
and whirl beautiful to contemplate.
The audience, which looked on the pro-
Jor,,o NTH oucpicion hacayno oYcitod
and at times was worked up amost into
a frenzy of delight. The musical num-
bers grow better and better and the
finale Of the first act winds up with
a. hurricane dance prophetic Of still
better things to come.
The first scene Of the second act is
nearly all music and dancing of ex-
traordinary cleverness. The scene is
shifted to higher social circles and
the women dress better, showing aft
pretty faces and graceful figures to
great advantage. The songs are new,
with catchy tunes, and the soloists
mostly artists. The chorus, too, is
above the ordinary, which is not al
ways the case with ladies selected for
their shape and facial beauty.
The dancing by the women is simply
of the graceful variety. When! the
chorus sails about the stage it affords
a beatific vision of handsome gowns
in rhythmic motion around dainty

LOS ANGELES, CAL, May 18.-Be-

she had only known a week and Of

pretty Mary Paine, the 17-year-old
daughter of Charles w. Paine, proprie-
tor of the Hope hotel, at Fernando, is
locked in her room and her brother
stands guard over her.
She was torn from the arms of her
young husband by her irate father, who
used a revolver to prevent others from
interfering after he had knocked down
and choked his new son-in law.
The bridegroom is Rolla Fullerton,
aged p years, whose home is in San
Francisco. He is fireman on the
San Joaquin division of the Southern
Pacific and has three brothers in the
railroad employ in San Francisco.
Met at Dance.
He met Miss Paine at dance April
13 and a week later induced her to
marry him. She was visiting relatives
here at the time and told her parents
nothing of her marriage until they
came to take her home. Then she in
troduced her husband. Her relatives

ty Of action.
The irate father appeared at the
home of a friend in whose house the
young couple had taken temporary
quarters and without waiting for any
explanation, attacked Fullerton and
knocked him down.
The bride went to her husbands as
sistance and called for help, but Paine
drew revolver and keeping the others
in the house covered, seized his daugh-
ter, dragged her down stairs and fore
ed her into a buggy.
Warns the Husband.
He then drove her home and warned
Fullerton he would kill him if he ap-
peared there. Paine declares he will
keep his daughter locked up until he
can have the marriage set aside by the
superior court.
Fullerton cannot afford to begin le
gal proceedings, because he made the
mistake of swearing that his bride was

whereas she was only II, and her
father threatens to prosecute him
criminally.
Fullerton sent Rev. F. A. Fields of

.POPUL AR OCEAN BEACH
Many From the Interior Planning to Spend
Their Vacation at the Sea Shore.

Hundreds from Eastern Oregon and
Washington spent their vacation at
North (Long) Beach, Washington,
last summer, and it is safe to say
that this popular resort Of the North
Pacific coast will be visited by many
more this year than ever within its
history. The change from high and
dry interior altitude to the sea level
is most beneficial.
The trip on the Willamette and Co.
lumbia rivers, out of Portland, is one
long to be remembered, the usual
heat of a summer afternoon being
tempered by a gentle breeze freighted
with the aroma Of pine trees and. sea-
includes much that is beautiful.
Leaving Portland on one of the Ore
gon Railroad & Navigation company's
palatial river steamers, (the T. ]. Pot
ter being queen of river flyers) the
excursionist is carried through it's har-
Dor where fly the flags Of many ma
tions. The twelve miles on the Will
1amette river are quickly made, and,
after saluting the government light
house, marking the junction of the two
rivers the boat swings into the Co.
1umbia for the trip down stream. The
morning is clear Generally SO from
June until September), and a magnifi-
cent and inspiring sight meets the eye
as the sweep around the bend is made

Mount Adams, Mount Saint Helen.
Mount Rainier and Mount Jefferson,
looming into view-a sight worth
travelling thousands Of miles to see.
On down the picturesque river, past
villages, sawmills, fishing fleets, sal
mon canneries, perpendicular basaltic
bluffs, and pretty side hill farms, the
sweep of the river is awe inspiring.
Gradually the shores grow farther
apart and, scarcely realizing that the
five hours have been consumed in
making the trip, the boat steams
alongside the wharf at Astoria.
One hour from Astoria, through the
famous fishing waters of the Column
bia, past scores of salmon traps and
nets and as many whiteWinged fish
boats, lands the passengers at Ilwaco,
and Bakers bay, where connection for
beach points is made with trains of

trip in curves as perfect as comic Sec
tons and they and the singers were
encored until the performance threat
ened to be prolonged to a dangerous
length.
And Don! Those who saw 1.-THE
Strollers" need only to be reminded of
the solemn faced comedian, who
made the audience roar with every
word, look and action and set into
Mysteries with his zigzag dance, in
lightning. He did it last night after a
monologue which is an Undesirable
gem, and some comic stunts on pi-
anO.
A quartette song and dance by Don
and three others wearing old broad
brimmed straw hats with dress suits
was the climax of hilarity. 1t is in
this that Don does his zigzag. An
other pretty feature of the last act is
Bubbles" in which nearly the en-
tire company blow bubbles to a gay
musical accompaniment. This is done
in a many colOred lime light.
There are no sticks in the cast. To
name all who did clever work would

the entire company. Beatriz Bronte as
the girl from Dixie is a pretty and
charming soubrette and sings well.

colored woman, is striking character

lish lord. Thomas ]. Keogh and Chas.

for a story that an eastern syndicate
is trying to buy up all the breweries in

has been in the country for the pur-
pose Of purchasing the breweries at
Baker City, La Grande and Pendeton.
Options are being held on the plants
for a specified time and as the time will
be up in a day or two it is altogether
unlikely that the gigantic deal will be
consummated. 1t is understood the
