Charity Ball.

Despite the weather. which is un-
usual, the entertainment and dance
of the Redmen at the Auditorium
drew a good crowd to that popular
place last night. A low estimate of
the number present would be 300. aud
another estimate is that the Redmen
never presented throughout a better
entertainment than the one last night.
The orchestra was good, with Prof
Boyer IN his old familiar place. James
U. Harris spoke some Introductory
words of welcome and then digressed
to give short history of the object
and teachings of the order.
Mrs, Paul De La Mars solo WIS
thoroughly enjoyed. and later in the
evening she again pleased the company
with another selection.
Miss Effie Handel gave delightful
recitation. 1t was of humorous
nature and presented the troubles of a
yoong bride Going her first marketing.
1t was without question very funny
aud brought down the house in laugh
ter several times.
One of the pleasing number was a
piano duet by Miss De La Matyr and
her pupil Miss Rowena Wheeler. That
the rendition of the piece was most
excellent was attested by the long
continued applause which it secured
from the audience. Miss Wheeler is
coming young musician with decided
merit. and the manner in whioh she
undertakes the most di fficult compo-
sitions. marks her for honor in the
future.
public school teachers. favored the
audience with a recitation which was
well received Miss Edith Richar
son, who needs no introduction to
Grand Junction audience appeared to
recite in native Indian costume.
Where she has appeared before an
audience in this city, it has always
been pleasure to hear her. She has
marked elocutionary powers and al
ways strives to please her audience.
The portion CT the program. how
ever. that was looked forward to was
the frontier drama presented by mem
bers of the order and some of the la
dies of the order of Pocahontas.
This sketch was delightfully."- staged
and realistic and those participating
did their parts splendidly. 1t was an
agreeable surprise the manner in
which they appeared ana the ease and
confidence of the stage presence of all.
1t was remarked that many presenta-
tions of regular travelling troops was
not as good. Following the program.
the dancing began and lasted several
hours, everyone enjoying pleasant
time. a goodly sum will be realized
from the effort for the cause of the
sick and afflicted of the lodge.

AS TO THE WATER QUESTION.

1t seems that the city council and
the water company are getting into a
fair way to get into the courts, but if
the water company is not complying
" ith its contract with the city, barring
obstacles beyond control, then
it should be made to do SO.
However, if the company can
show that it has eXerted
every effort possible to comply with
it's contract, but has been defeated in
a measure by unavoidable accidents,
the company should not be made to
suffer unnecessarily, but should be
raid for services rendered, with prop
er discount for an inferior service. The
company should be required to comply
strictly with its agreement, and the
city should not fail to faithfully per
trnl its part. in which case neither
the city nor the company can be un-
Justly hurt.

PRIZES FOR ESSAYS
Contest Open to University
Graduates.

The economic department of the uni
Yersity has received a circular from Prof
Laughlin, of the University of Chicago, an
nouncing the terms Of the Hart, Schaffenr

rope to be attributed?
The influence of Industrial combinations
On the condition of American labor

bushels is wheat below No. i northern

Expect Flour to Advance.
In view of these conditions miIlers
argue that flour prices should be higher,
but flour buyers do not agree to this,
and are holding off. Millers do not be-
lfeye in the sale of flour for bare living
profit, and after some months have
elapsed. when the wheat supply has been
exhausted they look for flour to advance
with a rush.
They are. therefore, closing their mills
with the idea of bringing the buyer to
see the situation as they consider 1t ac-
tually is. Winter wheat mills are in
better position for export at present. Kan
sas City has a rate3 on flour of IL cents
to New Orleans. and cash wheat in that
market has been from 10 to IA cents
cheaper than IN Minneapolis.
Millers are Of the opinion that prefer
entail rates obtained by the American
indirect way. 1t will come from the
larger foreign market for winter wheat
mills, which will enable them to sell
100000 barrels more a year for export,
and this would lessen competition from
winter wheat in larger domestic markets,
and make it impossible for spring wheat
mills to penetrate farther south.

siderable deficit is likely. He favors
an act authorizing the issuing of bonds
for permanent improvement not eX-
ceeding $4,000 each issue. Gov. Taft
says the sultan of Jolo long since has
violated the Bates agreement and has
forfeited all rights under it. Gov. Taft
pronounces him a. gambler and an in
triguer without a spark of courage or
patriotic and fraternal interest in his
people-one who runs his whole sys-
tenn of government solely for the exac-
ton Of taxes.
Gov. Taft took the oath of office as
secretary of war today and at once en-
tered upon his new duties. The cere-
mony took place in the large reception
room attached to the secretary's Office
in the war department and the transfer
of authority from Elihu Root, the re-
firing secretary, to Gov. Taft, while
simply made, was more impressive
than any similar event in many years.
Secretary Root, with a good deal of
feeling, surrendered his portfolio to
Gov. Taft. The party then proceeded
to the reception room, where Gen.
Chaffee chief of staff in uniform, took
charge Of the ceremonies. Gov. Taft
and Secretary Root took their places
at the long table, where John Ran
dolph, notary, administered the oath
of office. Then there were congratula-
tons showered upon Secretary Taft
and good-bys were said to Secretary
Root. Every army officer on duty In
Washington was aligned at the door
way and the brilliantly uniformed col
umn passed before the retiring and in
coming secretaries. Secretary Taft
had smile and good word for every
one, while Secretary Root showed the
relief he felt in laying down the cares
of the office.
The heads of bureaus and most of
the employees of the department each
received a pleasant greeting. Ex-
rotary Root left Washington this aft
ernoon for New York, being escorted
to the station by the military.

Washington gave a banquet tonight in
honor of Secretary Taft, class of rs.
