Some Substitutes for the Saloon. "

The address of Rev. Mr.. Miles before
the w. c. r. T. last Thursday afternoon
was fine i'm every sense. His subject
some substitutes for the saloon" was
handled in a practical manner and was
replctc with helpful suggestions. He said
at the outset that he had borrowed quite
extensively from the reports of those who
had studied the saloon question in large
centres, for the purpose of furnishing sal
utary substitutes and quoted from the
conditions i'm New York city while Seth
Low was mayor, to illustrate what could
be done in short time in the right di-
rection.
Bringing the whole subject to a con-
clusion. Mr. Miles's thought favored com
petition. First, good and happy homes
wise parents who studied Compartments
and furnished necessary diversions and
occupations for young minds and bodies
Then competitive prices and places for
laboring unmarried men, where cheap
lunches wholesome amuscments and
reading matter should be supplied. and
men could smoke if they must.
MIR Miles spoke of the saloons Offering
free lunches with a five cent mug of
beer as Illustrating the shrewdness of
that traffic i'm human weakness. The
proprietor must lose money on the one
glass. but he knows his customer once
inside his doors will drink many Those
who would furnish an antidote must do
it ct minimum cost, and enter the field to
stay We wish hundreds of our citizens
could have listened to this wise talk by
Mir. Miles.
Following his address Mr.. Wilbur. a
salvation Army envoy. gave a brief his
tory Of his own life ANA conversion from
the saloon to life of sobrety and work
for others.

Maro's Great saxophone Quartet.

Without music Maro's program would
be Incomplete. All who know about Marc
know of his versatility. How he delights
his audiences year in and year out with
his wonderful magic-his large pictures
quickly drawn in natures colors-his
shadow pictures which are bound to make
you laugh while you wonder how those
hands can do it all-how as a Virtuoso on
innumerable musical Instruments he has
played his way into the hearts of all who
love the magical influence of. harmony
And now he has added to tho musical
part of his entertainment a quartet of
wonder saNophones. Three good musi-
clans, besides himself as soprano saXo-
phonist produce such enhancing strains
rom these beautiful Instruments that the
music seems a part of MarO's magic-now
weird, deep profound, then eXhuberant--
now paintively pianissimo then furiously
fol tissimo. Such widely divergent effects
IRON the one source imparts to the music
the spirit of occultism which is naturally
associated with Maro's name and proves
that the versatile Marc is thorough stu
dent of music as well as of magic and art

AoolEs BEATEN IN ROUGH GAME.
Score Was 21-11, but Visitors Led In the
First half-Company IS, Catholic
Union II in Local LEAGUE.


The Amherst "Aggies" looked like for
midable opponents at the end of the first
half in Festival hall Saturday when they
had the lead to 2, but in the second half
the Vermont champions put it all over
them" the final result being 81 to IL.
More fouls were called than in any game
this season, and while there was much
unnecessary roughness on both sides the
visiting official evidently could not dis
tinguish at times between fast playing
and deliberate fouling. Howe's good
work was again noticeable. Company l
and the Catholic Union had a spirited
struggle in the local league series, the
soldiers landing victory 16 to II. The
teams were tied with six points each in
the first half. The Union introduced
new man, Grady who shot three out of
the six baskets for his side.

APPLES FOR THE CENTENNIAL.
Many Western States Will Compete in
Displays of This Staple Fruit at
Lewis and Clark Fair,

Portland, Dec. 22.-Western states
will show Eastern visitors TO the Lewis
and Clark centennial that the Oregon
country and California can produce APP
pies equal to any grown elsewhere.
The people of Michigan and New York
who come to the Western worlds fair
are likely to be especially surprised
when they see the wonderful display
of apples on exhibition.
The Oregon state commission has for
some months been preparing an apple
display, and large assortment Of the
fruit has already been gathered and
placed in cold storage, where it will
be kept until the exposition opens June
next. More recently California has
seen the advantage of advertising the
state at the fair by an apple display,
and the state board of trade has sent
communication to every large apple
growing county in the state, address
ling growers and local organizations
that are III pOnitiOh W "N'P W ~-f'-N
the resources of California in this way.
While the season has been bad for APP
Piles in some sections, the general oub-
Hook is good for splendid showing at
Portland in 1905.
Washington apple growers are IKE
wise taking a keen interest in the fair,
and Governor Mcbride has been ap'
preached with a proposition to have
that state pay for the collection and
storage of an apple exhibit. If the
state funds should not provide foI
meeting this expense, there is no ques
tion that individual growers and Local
organizations will take up the task.
In Idaho also apple growers, melted
by reports Of activity in other states
have begun to agitate the subject OF
state display of this fruit, and pros
poets are bright for an exhibit that
will rival those of the states better
known for their resources along thi'
line.
