THE STAR COURSE.

The people of our city have at last
been convinced that the talent select
ed for this years. course is strictly
first class, as three numbers have al
ready been given, and each one was
the very best of its class.
Mr.. Hinton White the great Aus.
trslian lee urer, was the last number
and he thoroughly Ileased and de-
lighted the audience, which was a
large one. and very many persons
have said that hey never had seen
suce beautiful illustr ations as was
thrown upon the canvas by his mag
nlhcent steIloptican. Australia Was
Certainly a revelation to most oil the
audience, and the Star Course COM
mittee certainly deserves credit foi
selecting such fine attractions AS those
that have already appeared this year
and we hnd by looking over the five
that are yet to come, that they rank
among the finest in the country
The next numper needs no words
OF praise to those who heard them last
year, it being The John Thomas
Concert Co. of Boston. John Thomas
is considered by every body to be one
OF the greatest humorists on the plat
70 m; having been endowed by ma
ture with a gift of making people
laugh in spite OF themselves; even
though he does not open his mouth.
Scores OF people have been anxious
iy awaiting his coming, and very
iull house is anticipated, and in order
that everybody might be able to hear
him, the yiice has been placed at $50
and soc. Mrs. Thomas is one OF the
finest lady violinists on the road, and
1t is fully worth the price of admis-
sion to hear her alone, in addition to
Miss Wood, the celebrated pianist.
Tins is company of artists and de-
serves the patronage of everybody. If
not has the sidesplit,ipg humor of
Mr.. Thomas stories, and his very
comical songs accompanied by the
magnetic touch of the pianist; but
the beautiful strains which comes
from that master of instruments, the
violin, in the skilled hands OF Mrs.
Thomas seem to bring heaven and
earth closer together and cause the
rearer to forget, for the moment, the
cares and sorrows of the world The
date is Jan. 50, and seats can be re-
served at Quenzel s Saturday, Jan. IS.

"Cobbs Battery Net Captured at
Shiloh" a short but pertinent article
in the January Veteran, may prove
valuable contribution to history, mas
much as it 1eiutes a misstatement
which was noticed at the St. Louis
Worlds Fair on a picture of Shiloh
Park, to the effect that Cobb S Ken
lucky Battery of six guns was cap
tured by the Eleventh and Twelfth
Illinois, together with the Eleventh
Iowa, Hare First Brigade. McCler-
nand's Division THE attention #
Capt. Cobu. who is yet living at
Wichita Falls, Tex, was called to
this bit of perverted history" and
the denial or refutation which follow s
is anlexceedingly important and in
teresting record.
The First ConfederateMonument
THE ladies of Cherow, S. c. claim
the credit OF having erected the first
monument to the memory Of the Con
federate dead, - writes Mrs B. D.Ac-
Leod, of Bleuheim, S. c. in the Jan
uary Veteran. A picture of this
monument accompanies the sketch,
and a must interes ing account OF its
erection and the causes which led
thereto is given.
The Confederate monument at Eu-
faula, Ala, was unveiled NovemL er
81, and the event is described at some
length in the January Vet ran. Ten
thousand people assembled in the
town to witness the interesting cere-
monies, thu PROCESSION formed at the
courthouse aud marched out to the
grounds. The Eulaula Rifles fired a
salute, and Misses Mary Merrill and
ida Pruden drew the cords whereby
the splendid, beautiful monument
stood feast for al eyes.
The account connot fail to be Of in
terest to all who delight in perpetual
ing the memory Of the past More
than one old veteran was heard to say
it was as much a monument to their
loving loyalty to the memory of the
Confederacy as It was to the courage
aud devotion of their old comrades. :"

as 1t now is. Therefore 1t Is that the alleged danger of cheap money can-
 not be used as an excuse for taxing trust funds and turning them over to
 campaign fund with which to infiu- ence Republican voters.
 The Oregonian indulges in all these
 so-called arguments as a defence for the New York Life and other corpora tions and then asserts in the most positive language that the "electo- rate last year was not corrupted" and that 'the people wanted Mir. Roosevelt
 for President" Perhaps a majority of
 them did and goodly portion of them
 wanted him because 1t raid them to be for him. Reputable newspapers ought not to lower themselves by trying to defend the men who used money that did not belong to them and used it for corrupt purposes Such papers would make more credit for them selves by plainly admitting that Me- Call. Cortelyou and their associates were guilty of all that is charged against them and make no effort to defend them.

IT IS SMALL BUSINESS

newspaper possessing the promi- hence and influence of The Portland Cregonian ought to show more intelli- genoe and fairness than to join in the cheap Republican clap-rrap which tries to justify the diversion of trust funds to campaign purposes. According to these defendants of a disreputable bus mess the country was threatened in 1896 and 1900 by campaign for cheap dollars; therefore it was tustlfiable for the Republicans to resort 10 any meth ods, however dishonest, 10 avert the danger.
 If this can be taken as iustifica tion in the two campaigns mentioned 1t certainly does not upp:y to that of 1904.

A BLUFFrNG MYSTERY.

Boston, winthrop and vicinity now have mystery that would give Sher- lock Holmes something to scratch his head over. In brief. sume days ago a large suit case was found floating in the water and upon opening 1t there was found the entire trunk of an ap- parently young woman which had evil dentiy been in the case but a short time.
 This was some, ten days ago. and that Is practically ali. The remain ing partions of the young woman have not been found. and the police seem thoroughly baffIed. A pawn-broker has been found who positively identi- fled the case as secondhand one sold by him to a stranger a day or two before 1t was found floating. He also testified that at the same time he sold smaller case to the man, who seemed hurried, and carried the two eases off with him.
 The theory of police and detectives is that the head and limbs of the murdered woman were placed in the smaller case and both of them were thrown into the water at the same time. For some reason the large one fioated and the other either sunk or has been carried out to sea. :-
 The efforts of the detectives are, first, to find the missing portions of the victim, and also to discover the man who bought the cases The pawn-broker thinks he would know the man again but this, as any one can see, is slim chance. He says the man was a stranger and was only in his shop short time, and under such circumstances it is easy to see that such Identification as would stand good in law is hardly possible. The aFrest of a suspect" on Sunday may or may not be important The man may have some connection with the crime, or his arrest may lead to inn pertant developments. for anything that can now be known. And 1t may be that the mystery will be explained before this article is read. but at pres eat there Is nothing to indicate such an ending.
 All the time the first suitcase was found the police and the detectives have been engaged in the search for the missing objects Submarine search by divers has been going on contin- ueuaiy. the waters all around have been dragged, grapplingirons em- ploysd and all other human means em- ployed to bring to light the missing portions of the body, but up to satur- day all had failed. It is such a mys- tsry as Holmes would rejoice at, but he Isn't on the job.
