The statue of Frederick the Great pre-
sented to our government by Germany

IMPOSING ceremonies. II was accepted
largely as a tribute of friendship be-
tween the two countries. 1t was over
80 years ago that Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters was presented to the American
people. and thousands of persons have
voluntarily testified to its wonderful
curative powers in cases of poor appe-
lite. belching. bloating. fiatulency, nau-
sea. sick headache. indigestion, dyspep-
sia. constipation. impure blood, general
debility, colds and la grippe. II has
often cured when all other remedies
failed. Weak and rundown women will
also be greatly benefited by taking a
few doses of the Bitters. We urge all
sickly people TO try it at once. Good
health will be your sure reward. Avoid
all substitutes.

Otto Banner Meets instant Death en-
Rock island at Green
RIVER.

With n pleasant farewell to friend,
otto Banzz,r jumped from Il wcstbound
Rock Island passenger train at Green
River station Sunday afternoon direct
". AGAINST the cast bound flyer, and was
hurled backward with a blow that the
coroner's jury and physician decided
brought him instant death.
The accident happened shortly be
fore 3 O'Clock in the afternoon. Banz-
ger. who was a Greek section hand sta
toned at Green River, went to the de
pot to say goodbye to a friend who
was returning to Moline. He boarded
the train. which left Geneseo at 2:3l
p. m. and chatted pleasantly as he
walked across the platform of the car.
The train does not stop long at Green
River station, and was getting under
way when the man leaped from the
south side of the car. At the same in
slant the eastbound flyer came thun-
dering along. and Banzzer leaped di-
rectly against it. He did not go under
the wheels. but was thrown backwards
a rod and half. He was dead when
picked up.
Bauzzer was a Greek. and one of the
thrifty members of his race. He was
employed as section hand for the Rock
Island, and lived in a bunk car" at
Green River. On his body was found
about $50 slowed away snugly in a
purse strapped on the inside of his leg
just below the knee He was well liked
by his companions and the accident
has filled the little town with gloom.

Young Ladies' Club Entertains.

Young Ladies' Club Entertains.
Perhaps three hundred people at
tended the concert and literary en-
tertainment given last night at the
Methodist church under the auspices
of the Young Ladies' Club.
A more delightful and interesting
program has never been rendered at
a home talent entertainment in the
city. The features of the program
were admirably arranged, the Gicnot-
ony and dragging" that sometimes
mark a home talent program was
entirely missing last evening.
There was not an Indifferent num-
Der. Every feature was appreciated
by the large audience and the ap-
plause was profuse.
Miss Olive Manns piano solo, THE
Robins Return" was a fitting and
very beautiful initiatory number. Ina
Derryberry and Paul Byers, dressed
as little outcasts of the street, sang
sweetly the pathetic little ballad,
The Waits
"A May Morning." sung by Mrs.
e. E. Leinbaugh, charmed the audi
ence and the encore was equally as
lovely.
Riley's famous poem. AN Old
Sweetheart of Mine,' never had
more perfect Interpretation than that
given last evening by Mr.. Phidela
Rice. In response to a first encore,
Mr.. Rice gave Riley's Bear Story"
which kept the crowd in an uproar
Of laughter. The audience demand
ed another selection and the third
reading was decidedly pleasing.
One of the best numbers of the
program was the whistling solo by
Miss Bertha Bloom. The selection
was The Shepherds Evening Song"
Miss Bloom has remarkable power
as a whistler. The audience was en-
tranced by the brilliant work of the
young lady, In response to an en-
core. Miss Bloom gave that sadly
beautiful old whistling song that will
never grow old. The Mocking Bird. ."

Lucia di Lammermoor." played
as an overture to part second of the
superbly rendered.
Miss Pearl Bannister sang" Ny
Dream of You" and her charming
voice was never more attractive The
encore. "A Lullaby was exceedingly
sweet.
The pantomime of THE Last Rose
of Summer" was one of the prettiest
features of the evening. The panto-
mime was rendered by Miss Armin-
da Perce, and Miss Bannister sang
the grand old ballad.
Miss Kate Leland added charm to
the evening by her piano solo
Moonlight on the Hudson"
No feature of the program pleased
the audience better than the reading
given by Miss Turner, The two Sc
lections given in response to encores
were catchy and exquisitely pretty.
The quartette, THE Professors
Home" participated in by Miss Ban
mister, Mrs. Leinbaugh, and Messrs.
Weber and Leslie, created more
laughter, or as much laughter as any
of the humorous features.
The closing feature, the Rose
Drill, was very beautiful indeed, and
proved a series of lovely scenes. The
young ladies who took part in the
drill were Misses Florida Thurston,
Josephine GLADDEN., Ella Bartlett, An
ma Gourley. Ruth Byers. Nola Her.
ron. Esda Richardson. Ethel Black
well, Gertrude Jones and Bess De-
Long.
The entertainment was a success,
brilliant success. and the audi
ence was most appreciative. The
young ladies realized a handsome
sum.

Business men Of The Dalles are
making a strong effort to have the
Columbia Southern train. which now
runs between Shaniko and Briggs, run
on Into The Dalles instead of stopping
at Biggs. Certainly no more disa-
greeable stopping place ever existed
than at Biggs, where the wind always
blows and the sand fills the air To
add to the disagreeableness of 1t, the
westbound train on the o. r. & N.
Is generally from two to six hours
late and this time must be spent at
Biggs. II will certainly be a great
boon to the travelling people of this
section of the state, most of whom
so west from Biggs, If the train
should run on into The Dalles and
permit them to spend the long hours
Of waiting at that place.
