Airy Legislators.

Orangeburg and Greenville are loom
ing to the front in the legislature-the
safe and sensible kind of looming. Some
other counties are hull-down and reced-
ing. Yet others are represented only by
the little "white caps'' on the crest of a
wave-in existence, ephemeral; in SUBJ
stance, airy, very airy.-The State.

Line Between Two Carolinas to be Resurveyed.
Two Applicants for Job.

The legislature recently passed an act
authorizing survey of the line between
the States of North and South Carolina
along the border of Marlboro county. 1t
is believed that this survey will lead to
valuable property being added to the state
of South Carolina. The friends of Mr.. r.
L. Freeman, of Bennettsville, have urged
upon Gov. Hayward his fitness for the
place of surveyor, and W. a. Yeldell
who surveyed the Calhoun county tract
over which quite stir was made, is also
an applicant.

A. e. REID, A WALlULA MER-
CHANT, SAYS IT is THE
WORST IN THE STATE.
Writes and Asks the County Commits
sioners Not to Grant Mr.. Ash An
other License.

If the county commissioners take
any cognizance of a letter addressed
to the board today by A. E. Reid, a
prominent merchant of Wallula, the
little town on the Columbia will go
dry for the next year. Mr.. Reid, in
lengthy epistle, takes exceptions to
the board granting S. A. Ash a sa-
loon license to continue business in
Wallula. Mr.. Reid tersely sized up the
saloon as one Of the worst in Walla
Walla county, if not in the entire
state. According to Mr.. Reid, drunken
men are constantly confiregating in
and around the resort and lewd women
take hand at tending bar when it
suits their fancy.
Mr.. Reid asks that the board grant
no more saloon licenses in Wallula.
He says the better class of citizens
are willing to pay additional taxes
to defray the expenses of maintaining
a deputy sheriff there.

GOOD PERFORMANCE.
Star Theater Is Attracting Large
Crowds Nightly.

One Of the best comedy dramas
produced by Mr.. Redmond is now en-
joying the record business Of the
season and has made the biggest kind
of hit with the patrons of the Star.
The play has many elements of sue
cess, plenty of life and action, good,
strong dramatic situations, sensation
al scenes and the jolliest kind of
laugh forcing comedy. Mr.. Redmond
is certainly at home as "Pilgram
Boggs," the Chicago Tramp. and it is
without doubt one of the best char
acters of the hobo variety that we
have ever seen. The play will be
presented for the last time tonight
and at the usual bargain day matt
nee tomorrow afternoon.
On Wednesday evening 1.-THE Mid
dleman will be presented and this has
been announced one of the strongest
bills yet offered, and will be presented
only two nights, Wednesday and
Thursday.
Another round trip ticket to the
Lewis and Clark fair will be presented
Friday evening and as all the num-
bers are good for the drawing, much
interest is being shown in the coming
contest.

BOY BlGAM1ST.
Bert Allen of LestervIIe, NJ. Y. Makes
Bad Start in Life.

,
BINGHAMPTON, N. Y, Sept. s.
The Broome county authorities are
anxious to serve a warrant on Bert
Allen of Lesterville, believed to be
the youngest boy ever charged with
bigamy He~is but 16 years old. The
trouble is the result of a romance
that started three weeks ago, when
young Allen and 14-year old Ethel
Allen of Lestershire took several
rides together on a merry-go round.
From that time the youth made
rapid progress in pressing his suit,
and less than week later he had
obtained the consent of the girls
parents for them to merry-go- round
through life together. They were
married by Rev. Mr.. Davidson August
49,
That evening young Allen was ar
rested on a charge of non-support on
complaint of his first wife, Mrs. Bes-
sic Allen, who claimed to have been
married to MIN three years ago in
Scranton Pa, the groom at that
time being 10 years old and his bride
It.
A few hours after he was dis
charged the second marriage came
to light and the charge of bigamy was
preferred Before he could be ar
rested the boy disappeared.

WHY NOT?

You have your own way to HAM
in the world. Perhaps you have been
at work for a year or two and don
see much prospect Of advancement
Might have had a better place in the
office, but you hadn't business eo'
ucation. Why not take a course this
year at the Empire Business College
1T will not do everything for you, but
dozens of our graduates will gladly ten
you about the good start it gave them
in business. A prompt decision and
little planning now will make this sue

EVERETT J. SMITH ARRIVED IN
WALLA WALLA TODAY FROM
INDIANA.
Will Have Charge Of Athletics at the
Educational Institution During
Coming School Year.

Everett ]. Smith, the new coach for
the Whitman college athletes, arrived
in Walla Walla last night from Bloom
ington, Ind. He comes to Walla Walla
we'll recommended and it is expected
that his experience will result in MAX
ing Whitman college one of the lead
ing colleges in the west in the line
of baseball, football and other ath-
letic events.
Mr. Smith will leave this evening
for Spokane in company with Pro-
lessor A. W. Hendrick to see some
prospective Whitman students. Mr..
Smith is a big fine looking fellow with
a very pleasing address and energetic
way of talking that impresses one with
him in a moment. Those VINO have
met Coach Smith today are warm in
their expressions of opinion concern
ing him. The feeling seems to be that
Whitman has now got the man whom
she has been after for several years.
Mr.. Smith said it was too early to
say anything about prospects, that the
first thing was to get a team together.
Smith comes here with a big rep as
a coach. He is graduate of the
University of Indiana of the class of
1902 played three years at tackle and
was captain of the team of 1901. He
is six feet tall and weighs over 200
pounds. For the last year, 19045, he
has had complete charge of athletics
at Culver Military academy, which
has for years boosted the fastest elev-
en- of the interscholastic class in the
middle west, far outclassing all other
high school and academy teams, and
even defeating some of the strong
colleges.
Captain Roy Perringer came in a few
days ago. He,is enthusiastic over the
prospects and the big men Whitman
hopes to have this year. He is plan
ming to have the first squad out right
after school starts or by a week from
Monday at the latest. This will give
