which comes to the Metropolitan for

clever extravaganza, Gland of Nod. "
are laid in a mythical country, and the
characters are with two exceptions all
imaginative or fanciful, presenting I'M
usual opportunities for elaborate scenic
display and costuming. The story is
not dissimilar to "Alice in Wonder
land.' The plot centers around Bon
ME, little girl who has fallen asleep
and is carried into Dreamland, which is
scenic novelty with the most bril-
liant pictorial surroundings.
Jack of Hearts, gallant knight,
finds a little country lass and visit
iting Broadway chorus girl, creates the
child. The Man in the Moon sees
from afar the good time taking place
in the Gland Of Nod, - and proceeds to
enjoy himself with Bonnie and the cho-
rus girl. His wife, Rory Bory Alice,
sends him messages by stars and fin
ally, when she fears he is locked up,
sends him the big dipper to bail him
out. Then as he does not return, she
descends and captures her husband, the
Man IN the Moon. In this strange cOun-
try Bonnie meets the King and Queen
Of Hearts, who rule the land, and are
finally overthrown by the Sandman and
the Weather Man, who wreck the house
of cards, which is the palace of the king
and queen. Bonnie discovers the Bal
loon trees, Peppermint river and many
other quaint belongings Of Dreamland
The chorus, numbering over one
hundred exceptionally beautiful girls
including the famous Madcap ballet
are attired as flowers and cards and in
wonderfully elaborate and beautiful
costumes. display any number of new
and original evolutions of the ballet

tiers as April Fool, Knockout Drops

Star Maiden, Reflection, Bantam Bal

brought, on and woven into the story
The second act depicts the famous
i Nightmare Palace, with it's imagina
tive devil and nightmare figures. Il
this scene the Man in the Moon ant
/ king are decapitated, and by mistake
the heads are replaced on the, wrons
i bodies; consequently, Rory. Bory Alic
s and the Queen of Hearts find some diff
ficulty in regaining their rightful hus

BIG TURNTABLE FOR KANIELA.
o. X. & n. VIII Install a Monster Ia
Bile for Use of Helper Engines.

The o. X. & y. company will install
an SO-foot turntable at Kamela, with
an attachment for operating the table
with compressed air.
This will be the largest table on the
system west of Cheyenne, and will be
the only one in this part of the coun-
try operated by air. The enormous
freight business over the Blue noun
tains and the use of so many helper
engines all of which take coal and
turn around at Kamela every day,
make such improvements necessary
there.
At present there is a 60-foot table
at Kamela and IT is turned, as all other
o. r. & n. tables are turned, by the
engine men. During the winter sea-
son it is almost impossible to turn the
heavy helper engines owing to the
snowfall which interferes. The air
for the table will be supplied by the
machinery which generates the cleo
trio current used in the block signal
system on the mountains, Kamela be-
ing the storage center for the entire
system of signals on the mountains.

This morning Balloonist Paul stated
that he would make another effort
at an ascension before leaving town.
He holds that the balloon is faulty,
and has written the makers, calling at
tention to the defects. Before try
ing again he says he will cut off
about 10 feet from the bottom of the
balloon, so as to balance the thing
better. No date has yet been set for
the ascension, but 1t will be held some
Sunday evening. probably July Is.
Last Nights Failure.
once more an unsuccessful attempt
at an ascension was made last night
by Balloonist Paul who was landed
on the roof of the round house and
forced to let go of his airship,
The attempted ascent occurred a
few minutes after o'clock, and a
large crowd had gathered near the
depot grounds to see the laring aero
naut make his ascent and leap for
life with the parachute. As the bal
loon rose in the air with Paul per-
| forming on the swinging trapeze, the
crowd held its breath. But in a mo.
ment it was seen that the balloon was
not sufficiently inflated or else leaked
for it began to droop.
As it passed over the o. r. & n
round house the balloonist hit tn,
roof with a thud. At the same tim,
the ropes struck against n guy wire oil
the roof, and Paul was forced to lie
loose of his swing. After II had pass
ed over the wire he was unable t,
catch on again, and the balloon drift
ed down into the west end of town.
After drifting a few blocks the bal
loon landed between Jane and Mari
streets, in the rear of Mrs. C. C. VaI

house the parachute caught on tn

O. r. 4 n. engineers and trackmen
who have been employed on the Uma-
tilla river constantly since the high
water OF few weeks ago, say that at
many places along the river between
here and Bingham Springs tons of silt
and refuse from the mountains have
been washed into the stream, forming
huge bars at places, and having an
extremely foul smell.
These beds of refuse are composed
of rotten logs, leaves, vegetable, soil
and every imaginable accumulation
from the mountain canyons and ra-
vines,
The city water supply must neces-
sarily pass over these beds of stinking
refuse and no possible means of safe
ty can prevent the germs they carry,
from passing into the city supply. The
necessity of boiling every drop of
drinking water is therefore made
plain During the hot weather the
poisonous germs carried in these beds
Of silt will multiply and the danger
point has not yet been reached.
All the physicians, the health auth

the danger of the situation advise
that the drinking water used in every
part of the city be thoroughly boiled.
It is advisable to boil well water and
/ city water. It is said that the under
ground seepage water which feeds the
wells of the city, will carry these
germs as readily as the surface sup
! ply and there will be danger of drink
/ ing unboiled we'll water.
The physicians of the city unite in
urging every one to boil all drinking
water and keep it constantly on hand
for use, as there is more danger in
/ drinking unboiled water for a few
| times, after having drunk boiled
water for several days. than in con-
| tinuing to drink unhoiled water from
! the first. After the system becomes
/ accustomed to the boiled water, it is
more susceptible to the germs in the
unboilei water than under ordinary
circumstances.

signlfied their intention of quitting.
The company is not worrying over the
matter, as 1t is felt that the worst
element among the several hundred
employees is gotten rid OF, and their
places can easily be filled by sober
men.

FISH WARDEN REPORTS.
Salem journal Makes Caustic Obsciy-
ationS.

The Salem Journal says of the re-
port of the master fish warden, II. Il.
Van Dusen:
The fish warden's report shows that
the sum of SlO47.S6 was collected and
S7O44.59 expended, all of which went
to the fish hatcheries except S1261.-
81, which was absorbed by the warden
and his deputies.
The horse editor notes an item on
the credit side of the ledger of $16.66,
one-third of the fine against Joe Fisk
of Coquille for permitting sawdust to
be discharged into Myrtle creek. He
did not see anything about any of the
numerous dams owned by big corpor-
ations which absolutely prevent sal
mon ascending the streams and thus
kill more fish in one season than have
been killed or even made sick since
Noah built the ark.
The hatcherics are all right but
why hatch fish that can't get back to
the place of their Matching again?

PURE ICE AND WATER.
Reason Why Both Can BE Gotten
Chcanly and In PROPULSION.

The health officer and other physi-
clans advise every one to boil all
drinking water, to kill typhoid and
other germs.
Artificial ice Is made from con-
densed steam. After the steam is con-
densed the water is reboiled. Every
thing, even in the air, is excluded
from the time the water goes into the
steam pipe until 1t goes into the ice
moulds. Water from the melted ice
has been boiled and distilled and is
chemically pure.
1t is cheaper to use ice and the
water as 1t melts, than to use fuel and
boil water Why not have ice and
pure water and avoid the extra fire?

promises to be a monster affair, says
the Boise Statesman. The idea of
holding such an exposition has taken
with the people wherever the news of

headquarters are being flooded with
letters from prominent husbandmen
and agricultural societies, asking for
details as to the proposed exposition,
and promising that their sections will
be represented in the display of fruits,
grains and grasses.
Especially in various portions of the
northwest is there an interest in the
forthcoming exposition in Boise. From
various portions of Idaho Oregon and

promising that their sections shall be
represented and urging that details
OF the plans be submitted as soon as
possible.
