at may be considered artistic and
proper for audiences to hold their
faces as passive and undemonstratiye
as alabaster images, during all the
climaxes and flights of a lecture, but
prefer to see the marks of approval
or disapproval on the faces of my au-
diences." said Prof. Preston w. Search
to the East Oregonian today.
Professor Search said >emphatically
that his chosen and favorite field for
lecture work is in the West; here the
people are demonstrative and respon-
sive and a lecturer may know the
mood of his audience by the counte-
nances before him. In New England
cold, stiff unbending, rigid and un-
demonstrative, the faces before the
lecturer give no hint of the temper
of the audiences. It is considered
bad breeding and bad manners to
show by any outward sign the feel
ings.
For these reasons said Prof.
Search, Il prefer the warm, plant,
yielding, buoyant, appreciative west
ern states and although a native of
the east, I claim my citizenship and
home in the west"
New England is a land of Ii
braries and schools, of experts in ed
ucational and religious lines of
thought, but there is a spirit in the
west that has captivated me. The
freedom, the flexibility of the west
erner, the boundless resources of his
nature are wonderful to see and en-
joy. For this reason 1 love to work
among westerners. 1 love to imbibe
that spirit which has made this coun-
try a marvel of progress and devel-
opment."
Prof Search delivers three lectures
at the Christian church this week,
beginning tonight with "a Yankee
Schoolmaster Abroad" and present
ing Winters in Switzerland tomor-
night and "Parsifal: A Guileless
Fool" on Saturday night.
This afternoon Prof. Search ad-
dressed the pupils of the high school
grades on "reminiscences of his own
school days, Comparing the oppor-
tunities and advantages then and

SINGING EvANGELsTs HERE.
Successful Series of Meetings at the
NJ. f. Church This Week.

NJ. e. Church This Week.
Singing their way into the hearts
of the congregations, is putting II
mildly in speaking of Mr. and Mrs.
Frank McCarty, the well known sing
ing evangelists who are now holding
series of meetings at the M. e.
church.
Both are singers of ability and Mr..
McCarty is an evangelist of force and
magnetism, although not claiming to
be speaker. Their strong hold upon
the congregations consists in singing
the familiar songs in a most tender
and touching manner, while a short
sermon is preached during the even
ing by the minister.
On Tuesday evening Rev. 1. b. Tall
man preached an able sermon and
last night Rev. Robert Warner
preached to a large meeting.
The services will be held each eve
ming throughout the week, with a
meeting on Thursday and Friday
afternoons at 2:3O. All are cordially
invited to these meetings They are
not continued late, the meetings be-
ing dismissed at 8 o'clock, unless
there are special reasons for contin-
uing later.
East Oregonian : E.O. (Pendleton, OR) 1888-current, 1905-05-04

That the Jalisco, Mexico, land and
city property scheme is rank and
unqualified fraud from bottom to top
is proved by a letter just received by
c. L. Cromer, of this city, from his sis
ter Mrs. Pearl Allmon who with her
husband and father-in-law, went to
Jalisco in February, from Springfield,
Mo-, and who is now in Jalisco,
awaiting an investigation of the fraud
ulent proceedings by the American
consul at the City of Mexico.
Mrs. Allmon bitterly laments that
so many people have been skinned"
by this fraudulent company and ad-
vises those who hold certificates of
membership to take up the matter of
being reimbursed with the American
consul, which has been ordered by
the United States government to fully
investigate the actions of the Jalisco
Land company at once.
The letter in part, is as follows:
Jalisco, Mexico, April II.
Dear Brother: This thing
has been a skin game and a fraud,
and we have discovered at last that
the land company never had a cent
of money and was not incorporated
as it was advertised. They sold lots
before they ever had foot of land
purchased. 1t was only about two
months ago that they bought the first
tract and it does not lay at all like
the plats show, because some of the
Indians would not sell and so the
company could not secure the land as
shown in the plats. The company
cannot give clear title because the
land belongs to the Indians and they
must get title from the government.
1t is a regular fraud from begin
ming to end. The literature they sent
out was pack of lies.
Send me your certificates indorsed
on the back and we will try to get
back part of the money quietly. 1t
is in doubt now whether there will
be any opening at all. Some of the
people have gone before the Ameri-
can consul at Mexico City. The Off
cials here are greatly agitated over
the affair. The company, however,
don't want many to come, for the
more that comes the bigger the row
will be. Don't even think of coming,
for you would be wasting your money.
Lovingly,
PEARL ALLMON.

It huris-
S-w-t-s-s-s-ht
And all Of Us wonder In watching It's
flight
To see It's outtitngtngs Of purple and
white
That laugh at the DINNER display Of tha
night
1t heads for a goal inconceivahly far
for no bar:
1t seeems to cry '.T.eons. to each eutv-
ertug start
The rocket. Spilled wine from the bowl
Of nights cup
A cascade of glory. il reaches up up.
S-W-l-S-s-S-h.
And then, when It's mark it has gallantly
gained,
We shout at the gIttrertns colortngs
That leave all the dark iridescently
stained
Then, soft as q whisper, the colortngs
Again all the mystery creeps through
the sky.
The hour OF the rocket has swiftly gone
by
up like a rocket''-But glory comes
quick
Let me be a rocket WHO cares for the
stick?
