1.-THE TEXAS RANGERS"
Popular Drama to be at the keyIor
Grand, Sunday Evening, April q.

Walla Walla theater-goers who want
to spend a couple of hours on the plains
of western Texas should not fail to
visit the keylor Grand on the night of
Sunday. April 81, when "A Texas
Ranger" the latest western drama
that has gained success in New York
will be presented by the same efficient
company that has made it the most
popular of all western plays.
The story is a picturesque one de-
picting the west when the west was
new and the strenuous life on the
plains of Texas, Astounding with thrill
ing climaxes and startling situations
embodying a carefully woven tale of
love, passion and undying devotion Of
the western ranchman and the from
tier soldier.
While "a Texas Ranger is melo-
drama. there are no impossible situa-
tions, but a play true to life. the CHAR
acters are not overdrawn, but are true
types of the people of the locality in
which the scenes are laid and are de-
picted in a natural manner, dramatic
effect being sacrificed for naturalness.
The comedy is excellent and in the
proper proportion to make a pleasing
diversion from the strenuous scenes.
"a Texas Ranger is entirely new and
being presented by a capable cast with
beautiful scenic effect it will I'M
doubtedly be enjoyed by Walla Walla
lovers of melodrama.

MR.. WALKER WHiTESi0E.

Those who are unfamiliar with the
career of Walker Whiteside, the ster-
ling young actor who comes to the
Keylor Grand theater in his new
play, "The Magic Melody" will doubt
less be interested in scanning the
curiously remarkable features Of his
upon the stage. He began
his work at the age when most boys
are still at school, and since that
time he has become one of the beJ1
known figures of the American stage.
1t was in 1893 that he made his first
New York appearance at the Union
Square theater, a house that is now
devoted to vaudeville, but at that
time one of the celebrated playhouses
of the country. He appeared at the
head of his own company, playing
Hamlet" and for day or two he
attracted no attention. Then one or
two of the critics dropped in. and
the next day the city knew that {.
real tragedian had appeared among
the host of actors, and that wniie
still a youth. he had the divine fire
in his own right, and would be heard
from. From that moment the Union
Square began to be packed to the

TRIUMPHANT COEDUCATION.


The decision Of the authorities OF
Johns Hopkins university to admit
women to its courses of graduate m
struction marks another step In the
triumphant progress Of the coeduca-
ton idea. The action Is one OF con-
siderable significance, because II Is
generally accepted that the marked de-
velopment Of the true university in the
United States dates from the estab-
lishment Of the Baltimore institution
a little over a quarer of a century ago.
The recognition Of the fact that 1t Is
impossible longer to Withstand the
claims Of women for equal privileges
with men in university work is now
complete.
The central west has just reason for
pride in the part which it has played In
this revolution When Horace Mann,
who had been a firm advocate of coedu-
cation, began his service as first pres
ident of Antioch college in OHIO, IN
1855, it was as head of the first insti-
tuition of collegiate rank which made
coeducation Of the sexes fundamental
provision, with the sole exception OF
Oberlin, where the same principle had
been in operation for more than twenty
years. A half century. therefore. has
completed the triumph of the idea.
Its greatest impetus came from the
state universities in the west. most of
which were coeducational from the
start When the civil war called the
men from the schoolroom to sterner
tasks and left the women to undertake
the work of teaching the children it
was inevitable that they should de-
mand better training for that import
ant duty. One by one, since that time,
the universities have opened their doors
to them. The idea has won its way in
Canada and in the old world. The
women have proved their ability in
scholarship. They have made import
ant contributions to knowledge as the
result of creditable research. Their own
scholarly accomplishments have been
favor
There still will be popularity for the
colleges which limit instruction to one
sex. There are advantages offered in
the colleges for men only which some
will appreciate. There are respects in
which the colleges for women only
surpass those where both sexes at
tend. But it is clear that the coeduca-
ton idea has triumphed in the college
and university world There may be
adjustments here and there, as special
occasion suggests, but the fact that
the idea has gained such favor
throughout the world during a half
century may be taken as satisfactory
evidence that women have won their
fight for equal privileges in the field
of higher education.

ADJUSTMENTS
OLLIE MACK'S HUMOUR.

ollie Mack is one of those absolute
ly imperturable individuals who ex-
perience keen delight in ruffling the
placid calm of sef-sufficient servants,
supercilious hotel walters in partiC-
ular, and incidentally having a little
harmless fun at the expense Of these
knights of the itching palm.
While arranging his mammoth must

genial Ollie encountered a particular
monsters who was masquerading in
the guise of a waiter, in the dining
room of the Hotel ST. Regis during
the sOjOurn of the theatrical magnate

While at breakfast one morning,
Mack determined TO hand the waiter
man a jolt that would break into his
high and mighty dignity and per-
chance catch him off his guard After
writing an order for a substantial re-

NEAW MlRsHALls WOUNDED
His Gun Caught at Ne 'Gels'
Bad Nan

PENDLETON, April ia special
to the East Oregonian from La Grande
says: Although shot four times by
a drunken gambler last night, City
Marshal John w. Walden will recov-
er, it is thought. Fred Ryner, the
gambler, who did the shooting, is ~iy--
ing in Irecarious condition at the
hospital, and little hope is entertain
fiicted by the city marshal in self
defense. after Ryner had shot him.
Last evening Ryner, who has been
a gambler and bartender here for the
past eight years. went on a spree and
armed himself with a shotgun and
pistol. He emptied both barrels OF
the shotgun into the walls of the La
Grande saloon, afterwards coolly
walking out to the street, defying
everybody to arrest him.
Walden was notified and went to
arrest the bad man" and on seeing
the marshal approaching Ryner is
said to have laid down his shotgun,
but when the marshal was very close,
he opened fire with a pistol, four
bullets penetrating the body of the
marshal. whose pistol hung in his
pocket when he attempted to draw it.
Two bullets entered Walden's, right.
shoulder, one his breast near the LETT
nipple and one made a crease down
his back when he bent over to escape
the fire of the drunken man.
AS Ryner fired the last shot at him,
Walden released his weapon and fired
striking Ryner in the abdomen, tho
bullet ranging through his body and
coming out in his back. He is fatally
wounded it is thought. although the
bullet did not penetrate any intestines,
as was shown on an examination to-
day.
Walden walked home and is not in
a dangerous condition. although two
Of the bullets are still in his body.
One which penetrated his left breast
is lodged near the pint of his shoul-
der blade.
He was formerly deputy sheriff Of
Union county, and is a brave and alert
officer and had he not been delayed
in getting his gun out of his pocket,
it is believed by those who know him
that Ryner would never have been
able to shoot him.

From Baltimore Sum-

A dispatch from Atlanta, Ga, pub
lished in the Sun the other day makes
the interesting announcement that
the State of Georgia will attack the
validity of the Fourteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution of the Uni
ted States The law questions in
volved arise in the cases now pend
ing in the State court of Georgia and
the Federal courts as to the consti-
nationality of the railroad rate legis-
lation enacted by the Georgia Legis-
lature. 1t is a curious circumstance
that the clause of the Fourteenth
Amend-.c-t w1,.ch waa invoked II
the proceedings in the railroad cases
has no relation to the negro, for
whose benefit the Fourteenth Amend
ment was mainly conceived and adop-
ted. The clause which has been in
voked is that contained in the first
section of the amendment, as fol-
lows: Nor shall any State deprive
any person of life, liberty or proper
ty without due process of law" The
contention of the railroad companies
is that in reducing the rates they
may legally charge for the transpor-
tation of passengers, the Legislature
has made it impossible to earn a rea-
sonable return from their investment,
and, therefore, the laws would re-
suit in a virtual confscation of their
property for the public use, and this
is repugnant to the Fourteenth
Amendment.
