social and fraternal order organized
at Seattle, Washington, five years ago,
now has membership of more than
100000 withAeries in many of the prin-
cipal towns of the West and East, and

rIcCIure's for December.

McClure's Magazine for December
fairly radiates the spirit of Christmas.
There is good cheer and pleasant en-
tertainment, shining out of its pages.
The magazine seems to grow richer,
more varied, more brilliant, more
authoritive. That rare combination
of illuminating serious article and alb
serbing story is effected by Ray Stan
nard Baker in his story of the Garment
Workers. strike, "The Rise of the
Tailors " 1t includes an article, "The
Increase of Lawlessness in the United
States" by S. S. Mcclure. Mr.. Nc.
Clure sees the worst, but hopes for the
best. His statement of the case is pow
erful and convincing.
The fiction of this number is good.

lies far west of Hoboken. Rex. f.

Mrs. Sallie Holcomb, who has made,

Chase for the past year, died this
morning at 8 o'clock at the age of 81
years. 1t will be remembered that last
January the deceased fell on the ice

able to be up and walk about the house
Three weeks ago, however, she began
to fail, gradually getting weaker and
weaker. During these past three weeks
she had suffered much pain in her
stomach, being unable to take any
nourishment for the past week, but her
death was very peaceful. She did not
regain consciousness this morning

The Amphion Tale Quartet.

The opening of the Peoples Star
Course, Thanksgiving night, with the
Amphion Male Quartet, was not only
successful from the point of view ofthe
management, but in local musical cir
cles of sufficient interest and import
ance to be classed with the leading
events of the kind in the towns his
tory. The length of the program, of
eleven numbers was doubled by encores
and even with this addition, the audi
ence seemed unwilling to have the
generous singers desist The several
quartets were given with beauty and
purity of tone and an evenness of bal
ance that betokened careful training
and diligent practice to secure the re-
suits achieved.
Individually the voices We're strong.
The tenor solo of Mr.. Conor was truly
an artistic treat, while the splendid
bass of Mr.. Cowperthwaite was heard
in a number that afforded his auditors
genuine pleasure. The Readings of
Miss Nichols are worthy of unstinted
praise. Her superior has not been
heard here, and that is saying much, as
Emporium has had the best. Excep-
tionally happy was the sketch, GA
Leap Year Proposal" !" in which she had
the assistance of Mr.. Conor and where
in was featured some comedy acting
that would have done credit to artists
of greater pretentiousness.
The audience was capacity size.
