THE LINEN SHOWERS
Where Those Which Have Fallen in
 Phoenix Have Gathered.

There has been an unusual frequency of linen showers this month indicat- ing a breaking of the record in the the matter of June weddings These showers have fallen in all parts of the city, but wherever they fell they gath cred head in Balkes Big Curio store. where genuine Mexican drawn work has been selling at unheard of prices since the installation of the new cut price feature several weeks ago.
 MT. Bake is inclined to take to him self great deal of credit for the un- precedented number of June weddings this year. Long before June came he called attention through the columns Of The Republican to the advantages ne was prepared to offer intending purchasers of June wedding presents. It Is quite possible that his offer has precipitated many a wedding We'd dings as every one knows, frequentlv hang on hair trigger. The least little thing will precipitate it or postpone it forever. The great bargains of the Big Curio store have no doubt in many cases been the deciding influence.
 Many gifts have been bought of the Big Curio store to send to prospective

brides m the east. These presents have consisted for the most part of drawn work and Mexican zerapss which can not be obtained in that part of the country and are therefore more likely te be appreciated than the conVenional cut glass ware which can be bought In every shop. There is little need to speak of the drawn work at all; it speaks for itself. But it is surprising to what number of uses the zerapes may be put In the way or hangings and coverings they add tone and color to any room.
 There was received at the Big Curio yesterday a large bale of Navajo prayer rugs. They come in a great many colors and the woven designs of no two of them are the same. In every one the design consists of one or more of the sacred smybols which Mr. Bake will be pleased to explain to callers. These prayer rugs come in extra large sizes and make admirable pillow coy CTS or stand covers.

HARRISON'S SLAYER
 GIVEN A PARDON
A Homicide in Santa Cruz County
 Five Years Ago Recalled.

Governor J. II. Kibbey yesterday granted a full pardon to Otis H. Moore, who was released from the ter ritorial penitentiary some time ago on parole, and issued a parole to Sidney B. Page of Wilcox. Moore was con victed in Santa Cruz county in 1901, of murder in the second degree, and was sentenced to twenty years in the peni- tentiary. His crime was the killing of a man named Harrison, on the range in Santa Cruz county. the incident be- ing of a very sensational nature and there being a wide difference of opin- ion at the time as to the justification of the act. Moore was a good pris- Oner, and in February. 1905, he was paroled by Governor Brodie.
 After his parole he went to work at two dollars a day and has lived a model life since then, so far as can be learned. Some time ago he went to Cananea where he secured employment; was eventually placed in charge of a gang of men. and has conducted himself in such a way that he has been advanced in position and service until he now holds a job that pays him S175 per month. He applied to the governor for a pardon. saying that he is now ready to get married and does not want to do so with a cloud hanging over him, the woman of his choice being fully aware of his previous record. In the investigation of the case the governor has received good letters of recommen- dation in behalf of Moore. One recites that he did not have proper counsel at the time of his trial. his attorney being at the time a man under indictment for felony. It is the belief of friends of Moore that had he been ably repre- sented by counsel he would not have been convicted.
 The paroling of Sidney B. Page was in accordance with the recommenda- tion of the board of control. In De- cember, 1899, Page killed man named Robinson, near Wilcox, or, at least, was convicted on that charge. He was

He has been a model prisoner for about seven years and is entitled to two or three years for good behavior. so it may be figured that his time is about half served. There is good reason for believing that he has been sufficiently punished. and it is contended that it is better to release him while he is yet young enough to prepare for a useful life.

GET sests for the RaDa.

This reserved seat sale for the Royal
Hawaiian band began Thursday at the
Auditorium. There was a good demand
for the seats. The prices are very mod
crate. and as the Auditorium is the cool
est building In Omaha In summer the at
tendance will doubtless be very large.
The Spokane Evening Chronicle of June
21 has this to say Of the Hawaiian band
Some OF the best musical organizations
in the country, including those under the
direction of Sousa and Creatore, have Wis
fed this city In the past few years, but 1t
is doubtful IL any OF them have given a
more satisfactory or more enjoyable con-
cert than that presented by the Royal
Hawaiian band at the Spokane theater
last night. The audience listened to some
of the finest music ever heard in this city
music that makes a man feel better,
and selections that were encored again
and again. The vocal selections by the
Royal Hawaiian Glee club were probably
the most enjoyed and were enthusiastically
encored."
The Salt Lake Republican says: This
Royal Hawaiian band. about which much
has been heard, is composed of sixty mu-
siciens, everyone of them Of high class,
and the music they furnish is a delight
to the ear
The Butte Miner says: "The audience
at the Broadway thester last night was
simply captivated by the performance OF
these Hawaiians. The program rendered
was varied and was of such a nature
as to delight even the most fastidious
prominent feature of the program war
the singing Of the glee club This com
pany has a number OF high-class soloists
that would be hard to excel anywhere. The

CURRENT LITERATURE,

Thomas II. Benton" by Joseph NJ. Rog-
ers, is the second issue of the American
crisis biographies. Interest in Benton, the
greatest statesman in america who has
come from west of the Mississippi has
been stimulated recently by the Louisiana
Purchase exposition, held last year, and
the Lewis and Clark fair at Portland. Bon
ton was ever strong in his efforts for the
upbuilding Of the far west. and It is due
more to him than TO any other man, and
almost to him alone, that we kept our
hold on the Oregon country over sixty
years ago. He served for thirty years con-
secutively in the United States senate. q
record never achieved before his day. and
since them only twice surpassed.
The unpleasant fact is that much OF Ben
tons fame has been obscured by the civil
war. To him we owe more sound legisla-
ton than to any single man from the be-
ginning of the nineteenth century to the
outbreak OF the civil war. He was the
father OF the specie system, the foe of
paper currency, and the right arm OF
jackson. To him, more than to any other
man, we owe the homestead law, the cheap
land system and the rapid development OF
the west. To him we owe the origin and
early development Of transcontinental
railway. He was one Of the greatest con-
structive legislators of our history and
deserves to be studied and remembered.

phia is the publisher.
