GRADUATED CLASS OF FOUR

THE OPERA HOUSE
Besides the Pieces by the Graduates
Dr. HarshRW OF Junction
CITY. Spoke.

The senior class OF four OF the Sner-
man county high school were formal
" graduated by the faculty and the
board OF education at the opera house
Friday evening. The graduates, Jes-
sic Vincent, Lowell Shaw, Claude
Coleman and Charles Mallory, deliv-
cred their pieces before the adusir-
ing audience, and after the class ad-
dress by DR.. H A Harshaw OF juno
ton City, were given their diplomas
and told TO go out and conquer
Dr. Harshavs unknOw1ngly took the
same subject for his address that Miss
Vincent chose for her graduation ora
ton. "Our Motto" or ''Veritas 1s1s
Liberabit truth viii make you
free And 50 the audience was treat
ed TO a short and long phase OF the
subject. The gentleman from juno
ton City did not disappOint his hear
ers. but gave them sound doctrine
upon the goodness and mighGneSs Of
truth He said that liberty in the
physical sense was not enough; that
we all must strive for m1nd-nbsrCy. he
divided his subject into a discussion OF
scientific truth on the one hand, ana
moral and religious truth on the 9TH
er, and encouraged the graduates 20
seek the truth as announced in their
motto.
The occasion was slightly marred
by the OfhciousneSs Of a spaniel dos
just as a duet was being sung by
Misses Griffin and SCheigner. The au-
graduates would sieze the occasion BY
the fOrelOck by grabbing the dog BY
the nape Of the neck and ejecting him
but they tried their best to persuade
the canine TO be still instead OF teach
ing him the discipline Of a swift kick
The salutatOry was given by Claude
Coleman, under the title Of Behind
the Alps Lies Italy, in which he de-
velOped the idea that perseverance
and CapiCity for q great amount Of
work, are necessary in scaling the
followed by Jessie Vincent, speaking
upon Our Motto" Miss Vincent
said some pretty things, and handled
her voice quite we'll. ''Preparedness'
was the subject Of Charles Mallory's
Grafton. II taught the necessity OF
preparedness before success. The
valedictOry was given by Lowell
Shaw, whose Grafton contained some
very good thoughts on education, and
| ended by speaking the appreciation OF
/ the class Of 1906 for the help received
/ and favor shown by the teachers and
/ supporters Of the high school.
The class Of four are bright young
/ people, and enjoy the esteem OF their
many friends. They performed their
! parts fairly well, but ought to have
! been more thoroughly drilled in voice
/ and delivery. Oratory is a fine art,
and even fair speaking is rich pos

Prof Mallory presented the diplo-

In letter received in Portland today
dated at Port Clarence, on July 90,
Ejnor Mikkelsen. who has charge of
the expedition. says the vessel would
sail that night for the unknown north.
The steamer is the Duchess of Bed
ford. which had been used as a whal-
er. Among the officials of the party
is Ernest Leffingwell, a Chicago scien-
fist.
A month or more ago the steamer
set out from Unalaska for the Siber-
ian coast. 1t was the intention of the
party to land near the Pribyloff group.
but Mikkelsen says the winds were
unfavorable and seas rough. and it
was decided to abandon the idea. Eff
fecting a landing at st. Lawrence is
land, he explains that they found the
natives to be hard up for boating gear
and he succeeded in striking a bargain
for all the dogs needed. After trade
was completed the steamer went
through the Behring straits and on to
Port Clarence without mishap, al
though the weather was extremely
rough.
II is said this is the last message
! to be received from the expedition
until they again return to the outskirts
of civilization. which will be some

ioh rendered today by Attorney Gen

the grading. H. E. Gaugler, the Straw
merchant, seems to stand very we'll
with the railroad engineers and pur-
chasers for the grading camps and
has every appearance of prosperity.
During the past year there have been
scores OF new settlers located on lands
adjacent to Straw and a majority OF
them have been men with sufficient
means to pay cash for their necessary
supplies. Mr.. Gaugler has done a biz
business the past six months. But
Straw needs an officer. Nearby is a
camp of negroes and while white men
are pretty bad when filed with Straw
Whlskey, negroes are worse, and when
a gang of them come to town to ceie
brate it is hardly safe for a person
to stir out OF doors. With no law Of
ficers within thirty miles, the men do
as they please and make living quite
unbearable to those peaceably dispos-
ed.
Every business man in Moore
thinks his town is just about the best

prosperity, they have very nearly

but the constant passing of light and
heavy vehicles from the stores to the
big wheat ranches on the bench is re-
sponsible for that and it would seem
