GIRLS WILL BE GIRLS

| R. Melville Baker. who wrote the book of Girls Will Be Girls" which appears at Polls tonight, is one of the brightest and wittiest authors of the present day, and Joseph Hart, who supplied the catchy music of the com. edy, has succeeded in writing some of the best music that ever flowed from his pen. Many of the numbers are music of high class and of the whis- tleable kind. There really is plot to Girls Will Be Girls something un- usual in the ordinary musical comedy, and as it unfolds itself it develops more grotesque absurdities than are usually embodied in the so-called musical con- edies of the present day. The story is laid in one of those old sleepy, Puri tanical Massachusetts towns just out side of Boston. where Prof Ebenezer Hezek1ah Dodge conducts seminary for young ladies, and, although a devotee to dead languages, is some thing of devotee to life cock fight ing. However he attends one for the same reason that the celebrated Dr Parkhurst visited notorious houses in the red-light district in New York a few years ago-presumably to collect material for a book or sermon. The cock fight is raided and in hls effort to escape his coat-tail is caught on the horn of COW, is left behind and falls into the hands of the rural police. The attempts of the country sleuths to dis cover the owner of the coat-tail fur nish innumerable complications and hundred and one laughable situations among which is one which has taken years of close application to develop, and much as theater-goers affect to be little low comedy in historic art. the fact remains that as much thought may be expended on funny fall or an ab. surb bit of ''business" as upon an cpl. gram or paradox In the last of Girls Will Be Girls" Al Leech has bit of purely acrobatic comicality which is sufficiently ingenious to have, won praise wherever seen. The set ting in this act represents the interior of an astronomical observatory. Nil Leech. who has accidentally acquired very considerable jag" attempts to climb spiral staircase to huge tel esc0pe. Spiral staircases are sufficienr, ly difficult to ordinary persons. but to man with a premature fit of dizzi- ness they must be very dreadful. Mr Leech spends ten minutes getting to the top of this one and. falling into the mouth of the telescope. is shot out of the other end at the very place from which he started. This bit of nonsensi cality is not high art, but it never fails to evoke laughter Prices are $1, 75. 90, 8 and % cents.

William Eccles. v1ce-president of
the Sumpter Valley railroad, and a
prominent member of the Amalga-
mated Sugar company. was in the city
today, en- route from Ogden to Hood
River, and spoke encouragingly of
the proposed new railroad from Hood
River station, on the o. r. & ~ to
the south end of Hood River valley.
1t is the object of the company of
which Mr.. Eccles Is member, to
build about II miles of standard
gauge road from Hood River station.
to the upper end OF the famous valley
this coming season, for the purpose
TO the great fruit district through
which the road will pass, and in addi-
tion to tap a large belt of timber on
the foot of the mountains, which will
be tributary to the large sawmills
owned by the company at Hood River.
1t is the intention of the company
to extend the road indefinitely later.
perhaps to Mount Hood. Prelimin-
airy surveys have been made, and a
permanent route selected. There will
be one suspension bridge and one
tunnel on the line to be built this sea-

household word throughout Pennsyl-
vania and adjacent states. is contrib
uting a series of papers to THE Are
na," that every voter in the republic
should read, as they lay bare with the
pitiless fidelity OF the CONSCIENTIOUS
historian the whole story Of the gene
sis, rise and domination of corrup-
ton in Pennsylvania.
In the February Arena Mr.. Blank
enburg has contributed one of the
most important and suggestive, but
also one of the most humiliating
chapters in the historical literature of
modern American life. It deals with
the rise of Quay and Quayism in
Pennsylvania.
Another paper that deals with the
tyranny, oppression and corruption
in the republic at the present time is
entitled THE Armour Refrigerator
Car Conspiracy; or, A Crisis in Inter-
state Commerce Regulation" and has
been prepared by W. G. Joerns, a well
known lawyer and journalist of Du-
luth, MINI.
1t is a bold and impressive arraign-
ment Of trust that, though much
younger. is quite as rapacious and in
imicar to the interests OF the people
and to republican government as has
been the Standard Oil company.
Many OF the most startling facts cited
by Mr.. Joerns were adduced at the
recent investigation of the interstate
commerce commission.

IkCthA OHuChi
At an Informal meeting OF some OF
the members OF the Development
league Saturday afternoon in the Of
flee Of Foster & johnson, II was de-
cided that one of the most effective
ways in which to attract the attention
of the visitors to the Northwest this
summer to Baker City and county is
10 have a man or two at Ogden or
Pocatello. well supplied with maps
and concise literature descriptive OF
the resources here and verified sta
tistics, who shall board all westbound
passenger trains, personally interview
passengers and give them reading
matter that they will have time to di-
gest before the train reaches Baker
City. says the Baker City Democrat.
There should also be at Huntington
depot an exhibit case of the mineral
and agricultural products Of the
county, properly labeled and indexed
stop there at least 20 minutes and
passengers have time to kill in study
ing about Baker.
The city council OF Baker City
should also appropriate fund for the
establishment at the depot in Baker
City a characteristic exhibit here OF
our resources as a permanent infor-
nation bureau such as other progress
sive and pushing towns have. Work
on these lines cannot fail to bring re-
suits

The End of Navigation.

An unknown man, who has more
courage than judgment, attempted to
run a stern-wheel raft down the
river. The raft had a neat little house
built on II, and was propelled by a
paddle wheel worked by hand The
current carried the craft into a
rocky reef, below the McCredy place,
wrecked IT SO badly that the man had
to swim ashore through the slush ice.
The adventurer evidently had busi-
ness down the river, for he would not
stop to dry his clothes at the In
dians, although they urged him to
do so.-Goldendale Sentinel.

Dave Horn. the pioneer stage driver
now living on Upper Mckay creek.
who was in the city today, relates the
story OF the burning OF the stage sta
tion at Cayuse in June, 1878. by the
Indians.
Cayuse station was located on the
hills, about three miles south OF the
present o. r. & n. station OF Cayuse,
and was one OF the best equipped sta
tions on the entire line. The finest
stage stable on the line was built at
cayuse. About 10 head OF horses
were kept there for change OF teams
at all times.
Mr.. Horn says that Al Snow was
station keeper at the time the sta
tion was burned by Indians. and that
when the Indians appeared on the
hill south OF the station, Snow fled
into the brush and hid. The Indians
did not search for him. Frank Rim
get, Frenchman, was hostler. and he
also hid in the brush. and from
where he was concealed, he witnessed
the destruction of the buildings. His
Indian wife was with him at the time,
and after the Indians had left the
station. Ringet came to Pendleton
and told the news.
Ringet said that the Indians went
into the station building before they
set fire to It and carried out every
thing they wanted. and articles they
did not want were either piled up in
the lot and burned. or scattered about
the buildings. He said an Indian
came out of the house dancing and
singing. with an umbrella stretched
over his head, and another with
Shows high silk hat on, the other In
dians chasing these two in the eff
fort to secure the coveted articles.
Dresses and blankets and cooking
utensils were carried out and scat
tered about the place and finally the
house was fired.
In the stable were 10 head of fine
stage horses which were driven away
by the Indians. and 10 sets OF fine
harness which were cut into strips
and then burned with the barn. Every
building on the site was totally de-
stroyed by fire and not a vestige OF
a station was left when the next
stage arrived from Meacham.

Big Engagement is Imminent, but the
Jap Plans Are Kept in the

Gunshu Pass, May GA general en-
gagement is imminent. Oyama is de-
ploying heavy forces against Line
vitch's left and is contracting his
troops along the center, but his base is
opposite the Russian right. 1t is not
yet clear which wing is making a DEM
onstration and which will deliver the
main blow. 1t is evident from Line
vitch's preparations hat he entends TO
accept a decisive battle.
ST. Petersburg. May 2O.-The war Of
flee confirms the report from Gunshu
pass that Oyama is en- the eve of talk
ing IL general offensive. No doubt is
entertained here that Linevitch will &C
rcpt battle in his present positions. The
staff believes Oyama's advance
was precipitated by doubt regarding
the issue of the coming naval battle
between R~oiestvensky and Togo. With
an unbeaten army in front of him.
Oyama's position might be critical if
his communications with Japan were

RUSSIA ENTERS PROTEST.

ST. Petersburg. May 23.--The Rus

formed the Chinese government that
according TO reports the Japanese in
tend removing the emperor of Korea to
Japan. in c~ontraventiOn of the treaty
of S~himonoseki. guaranteeing the indie
pendence of Korea. The Russian gov
eminent has protested against such ac-
ton to all the powers.
Washington, May 20.-"The treaty
of S~himonoseki, which brought to a
close the Japanese-Chinese war, guar
anteed the independence of Korea.
Japan will not violate the terms of hat
treaty. Statements that the Japanese
government contemplates removing the
emperor of Korea to Japan in contra
vention OF that treaty are incorrect and
are circulated with u mischievous pur-
pose in view"
This was the comment on the st.
Petersburg dispatch that Japan in
tended to remove the Korean en-
peror to Japan, made by Minister
Takahira of Japan tonight. AS be-
tween the governments of Japan and
China it is realized that so long as
interests of the United States are o
mennced there is no ground for this
| government to interfere in this con-
nection. except. perhaps, to exert it's
good influences for the continuation
of friendly relations between them.
