tiish School Students Present a
Clever Farce Comedy.
HOUSE PACKED TO THE DOOR
Large and Representative Audience
Witnesses Performances OF Clsverly
Constructed Play, Entitled "The
ULSTER Given Deserved Applause.

Fishers opera house held large
audience last evening, to witness the
presentation Of farce comedy in three
acts, entitled 'The Ulster" given by
high school students for the benefit OF
school athletics. Sixteen students and
one of the teachers were In the cast,
the teacher, Miss Grace Moore. sub
stituting for Miss Emma Snedd. a
student who had been compelled to
miss a number OF the rehearsals ow-
ing to unforeseen circumstances.
1t fell to Miss Moore's lot to act the
leading lady, as Mrs, Flipper, in which
role she certainly did her best. In
fact, a finished actress could not have
improved much upon the portrayal of
this character. Miss winnifrei Hig-
gins. who as second lead, assumed the
role Of Sadie. Flipper's niece, deserves
much credit. Miss Grace Magladry
was a clever ingenne as Agnes Patsy,
maid at Flipper's, was a good part
well taken care of by Miss Mary Greg
CRY. Few strangers in the audience
would have believed that the elderly
matron. represented by Miss Amy
Ranells in Mrs Barton, could be a
senior student of a high school. The
minor female roles were in the hands
Of Miss Jeanette Peterson and Miss
Ruby Bremner, who helped to make an
attractive whole.
r. Emerson certainly made an ex-
eellent leading man as Valentine Flip
per. while Lawrence Rogers as his son
Geoffry proved a good second lead. OF
the other roles that of Prof. Barton,
represented by Joseph Leahy deserves
special mention owing TO the careful
presentation of the deaf feature. The
embarrassed F1ipper, Jr., was diff
cult role. advantageously portrayed by
lyon Guilliume. OF the minor male
roles. Otto Utzinger took off John. the
footman. very well, as did Henry
skibbe with the cabman. The other
members Of the cast were Messrs.
Lester Lounsberry and Frank Parker
One feature of the occasion was the
excellent rendition of the instrumental
program by the high school orchestra
consisting Of Miss Gayle Roberts first
violin; Thorburn Ross, cello; Miss
Margaret Taylor, piano and the Misses
L. Parker Ruby Hammerstrom and
Magma Carlson.
The performance will be repeated to-
night and will no doubt be witnessed
by another large audience.

The governors of four states have
signifled their intention to declare June

assurance received from Lieutenant
Governor Sir Henry Jolly de Lotbiniere
that an official proclamation will be
issued, calling attention to the spe-
cial arrangements for the first week
in July at the exposition, in behalf OF
that rich Canadian province.
No exposition enterprise ever has
received such signal honor as the Of
flciai actions OF these Ave executives
will bestow. But public interest in the
centennial is by no means confined TO
the Pacific northwest From every
state in the union. during the exposi-
tIon period Of four and half months,
large parties OF sigh;seers are arrans-
ing to visit Portland to see the ex-
position and take in" the beauties Of
the surrounding country. The rail-
roads have arranged a rate of one

east of Chicago and st. Louis while
from these points the rate win be even

OLD DEGREE SYSTEM
ABOLISHED IN CHINA.
Government Officers Are to Be Re.
eruited From Men Educated In
Modern Schools.

PEKIN, Sept. s.-An important
edict has been issued in response to
the memorial Of Yuan Shi XII and
other prominent men, abolishing ex-
aminations for the old system; estab-
lished from time immemorial, China
has recruited government officers.
Hitherto the aspirant for honors was
required to be proficient in the writ
ings of Confucius and other classics.
In future officers will be recruited
from the ranks Of those educated ac-
cording to the modern system in
schools to be established throughout
the country. This edict offers the
strongest inducement to the Chinese
to acquaint themselves with Western
learning and will prove a most eff
fective means for China's salvation.
Another edict advocates the dis
patch of increasing numbers Of stu
dents abroad, chiefly to America and
England.

oermany,s EeonomIc POSITION.

Germany's Economic Position.
The problem OF Europe.s immediate
future is moi merely a political one:
1t contains also a very important eco
nomic element. The close financial
connection between France and Rus
STA has already been alluded to as a
preserving force in the dual alliance.
France to-day is burdened with a far
larger debt than n other nation in
the world (about $4,000, 600, 0OO); mil
itary and naval expenditures produces
constantly recurring deficits; taxation
is as heavy as "A be borne; and It
Is only national thrift that tends OH
financial collapse. 1t is above all
things else essential, therefore, that
the loans to Russia be not jeopardized,
and from this standpoint the war in
the East cannot be terminated any too
soon. Should 1t go on, the heaviest
pressure that a be put upon France

volved. In any case, the appearances
now are that future Russian loans
will have to be negotiated in Berlin
rather than in Paris. On the eco
nomic as well as the political side,
Germany is today the disturbing fac
tor in Europe. German tariffs, indus.
tries, finance, and commerce contain
the promise of far-reaching changes
changes which on the whole have al
ready been marked out by political
considerations, but which are likely
to be intensified and fastened by infiu.
ences essentially economic. Thus,
Germany's policy of trade restriction
is having not a little to do with the
~decadence of the triple alliance. Aus
tria-Hungary, n even more Italy,
feels that Germany is utterly inconsid-
crate of the interests of her allies,
and that the alliance is not worth
while, being as barren of commercial
as of military advantages. Likewise,
the relations of Germany and France
are affected by the formers CONNER.
cial pr~eponderance. Frances foreign
trade is regarded by many as on the
decline and in a fair way to be ruined,
partly because of the growing COM.
merce Of the United States, but main
ly because of German rivalry in the
worlds markets. Most of all is Great
Britain affected by Germany's rapid
economic rise and her transformation
from an agricultural to an Industrial
and commercial state. England and
Germany can never be real friends,
for there must ever be between them
the keenest rivalry for trade, land,
and colonies. The English believe
absolutely that Germany's longing for
sea power, foreign possessions, and
commercial domination constitutes
their gravest menace as a nation, and
in this they are not far wrong. The
consequence, therefore, is certain to
be the continued alienation of the two
peoples; and this inevitably means
