ADJUSTMENTS
At the New Orpheum.

Undoubtedly the greatest aggrega-
ton of vaudeville artists of the first
magnitude has been engaged for the
opening week of the New Orpheum
and that the house will be packed dur
ing the entire week goes without say
ing.
The management have taken especial
pains to provide, for their initial bow
before a Walla Walla audience, none
but top-notchers and headliners in the
vaudeville armament, and the fullest
measure of success should crown their
efforts
The Taylor Quintet, of five exquisite
male voices, have been greeted with
deep appreciation and much applause
wherever they have appeared.
Virginia Moe, the singer of illustrat-
ed songs, has certainly sung her way
into the hearts of every audience be-
fore whom she has appeared.
Trixeda & Robinson are the peers Of
any team in their line of artistic vau-
deville work. Their act is thoroughly
clean and of the highest grade.
Blair and McNulty have an interna-
tional reputation and are hailed with
delight by all who are afforded the
opportunity of seeing their clever per-
Torrance.
Annie Abbott, "The Georgia Won
DER is truly one of the marvels Of
modern times. Her act alone is worth
more than ten times the admission
asked for the whole performance. She
has appeared before all the crowned
heads of Europe. She is a mystery to
the medical profession and is justly en-
titled to be classed among the worlds
greatest wonders.
The New Orpheum, in its new coat
of harmonious colorings, brilliant
lighting scheme and appropriate seem
cry, is a veritable bandbox and the
interest being displayed by the citizens
assures the management of packed
houses for the entire week.

At lutchers.

Lutcher Bros well known billiard
hall has set its opening for the coming
season for Wednesday night, Sept. 10.
AT these parlors improvements have
been extensive during the past few
weeks. Several tables have been re-
covered with. new cloths and new sets
of balls added. At these parlors the
management has decided to give it's
patrons prizes Saturday night of each
week. The prizes undoubtedly will
act as an incentive to local players to
pay some attention to their scores
on prize night at least.
For the coming season Lutcher Bros.
are adding another table, giving the
parlors in all seven first class billiard
and pool tables.
At the opening night next Wednes-
day several local expert billiardists
will perform.

TO MATCH REILLY AND BURROWS
GOOD GLOVE CONTEST PROPOSED
FOR RACE WEEK-BoWLING,
BILLIARDS, OTHER SPORTS.

A movement is on foot among
to organize an athletic club and open
up the fighting game in Walla Walla
to match Jim Burrows, the Fernie, B.
c., middleweight, with Jack Reilly, the
fight to be pulled off during race week.
Reilly is anxious to entice Burrows
into the ring again. Burrows beat

fights ever pulled off in Spokane.
Bowling Alleys Open.
Smith & Lankard, proprietors of the
Walla Walla Bowling alleys are put
ting the finishing touches on all their
alleys for the opening of the 1867

leys have been redressed and resur-
faced and bowlers who attend the
opening will find them as nearly per-
feet as they ever rolled balls on.
A feature of the opening next Mon
day night will be match games be-
tween well-known local bowlers.
Improve Billiard Rooms.
The Lucky Strike Cigar Company,
August Babe, manager, 81 East Main
street, have decided TO make extern
sive improvements to their billiard
rooms The store next to the present
quarters has been rented which will
give them just twice the space they
now occupy.
Three new tables will be installed
two pool and one a billiard. These adj
ditional tables will give the parlors
total of six. In fitting up their en-
larged quarters considerable attention
is to be paid to billiard room fixtures
and furniture and the Lucky Strike
people propose to have billiard par
lors that will be cosy and modern in
every respect. Workmen will begin
improvements at once and in less than
a months time they expect to have
everything in readiness for the COM
ing season.

be hoped the people can be brought TO
a realization of the dangers of turn
ing over the political control to men
who have no other desire, or intention,
than to further their own selfish ends.
The Statesman has taken no part in
this struggle for the supremacy of one
machine or another. It's interests are
solely those of the property owners
and taxpayers of the city and county.
Yet. as do thousands of citizens, this
paper deprecates the entrance of re-

and principles exist there.
To such The Statesman would sug-
gest they are lending their influence
merely to place into power men who
seek nothing but the exploitation of
their selfish ambitions to be political
bosses. To bring about such new
bossism they are willing to sacrifice
the interests of their senator and,
consequently, the interests of Walla
Walla. Calm consideration of the
conditions will convince any thinking
man that false pretenses have been
resorted to in order to attract the more
Indifferent, Or less intelligent, vote.
"Crockerism' is a far cry. Ankeny-

domination of Warden A. F. KEGS and

He is TURNED OUT
Chicago Alderman Expelled
From Labor Union
Because He Was Too Blood
thirsty for Members.
OFFERED RESOLUTION
In City Council FavOring Capital
Punishment
For Men Convicted of Assault
ing Women and Girls.

Chicago, July 27.=Alderman Daniel
Herlihy of the Twenty eighth ward
was a member in good standing of the
Steam Engineers union until last
night.
Now he is an outcast from that labor
organization and for a stHange reason.
He was expelled from the union be-
cause a few weeks ago he introduced
into the city council a, resolution call
ing upon the state legislature to make
assaults upon women and girls punish
able by death. The union through the
medium of series of sharp resolutions
"deplored the outrages upon women
and children but declared that insane
asylums and hospitals are the proper
places for the weak minded persons
who commit such assaults.
Alderman Herlihy, at one of the last
council meetings. before summer ad-
journment introduced the resolution
ton followed the many brutal attacks
on women reported throughout the
spring.
Nothing was done about the resolu-
ton, except to refer it to the state leg
islature committee, where it now re-
poses. Herlihys expulsion last night
was unexpected. The resolution for it
was introduced by Arthur McCracken,
secretary of the union and was adopted
unanimously after a spirited discussion
In which the offending alderman was
berated rOundly. as a traitor to the
trades union movement.

WHEAT IN ATCHISON.
Ex-Governor Click Says Yield Has
Been Enormous.

Wheat growers in Atchison county
have never before experienced such a
good year as this one, according to for
mer Governor C. ". Click of Atchison,
who was in this city today
1T has been a most remarka BILE year
for wheat in Atchison county, said
Governor Click. 'tOne farmer had a
large acreage which threshed out fifty
three bushels of wheat to the acre. There
are any number who got from forty to
forty seven bushels an acre and thirty
five bushels an acre is a common yield.
This is the best year for wheat which
the farmers in Atchison county have en-
joyed and the wheat is of the best quail
ity. Corn is looking fine all through the
county as are all the other crops up
there
Asked as to things political in the
county Governor Click reverted to q dis
cussfon of the great crops and the gen
eral prosperity abounding throughout
the county
