MURRAY AND MACK.

Manager J. B. CatrOn announces with
pleasure the return of those Cid fav-
orites, Murray & Mack. They come
this season with banners flying, flushed
with victory. Their business along the
line this season has exceeded anything
in their career, and considering the
fact that they have been catering to
the public fo- Is consecutive seasons
is something to be proud Of. They
have made a special effort this year to
surround themselves with a capable
cast and have spent a great deal of
money on the scenery and costumes.
The hall room dresses in the second
act will cause the female portion of
the audience to open their eyes in
wOnderment, as these gowns are par
ticularly handsome. The piece this
season has more Of a plot than the av-
erage Murray &, Mack production al
though the plot is guaranteed not to
give anybody a headache, but most of
the funny business and comedy situa-
tions will be found to come legitimate
ly and naturally, which makes them all
the more enjoyable. At the Keylor
Grand on March IS.

TO FREE CHIEF FROM
HIS FINANCIAL TROUBLES

Patrolmen under Alvah Brown, chief
of police, are showing their loyalty
and friendship toward him by making
up a purse among themselves to make
good the amount secured from the
vault a week ago. The officers say
they do not feel like seeing Mr.. Brown
make the money good out of his own
pocket.
At the close of last week $3.50 in $40
gold pieces was missed from the vault,
checks and silver We're not mOlested.
1t is not really known whether some
one used the combination or the safe
was left unlocked. The vault is one
which has been in use for years. Many
persons know the combination Of the
vault. The police, however, do not
cast any suspicious on those persons.
If they have any idea of who the
guilty person was they refuse to say

expended $13, 100000 for age pensions,
to say nothing of 1855, 100000 for sick

1t is strange that this matter has
not attracted more attention in an ad-
vanced country like the United States,
which pays out more than $4,000 600
year to army and navy pensioners
and has spent $3,26413O,257 in that way
since 1861.
According to the Circle, the census

3,OSO,49S persons of S. or more years

1t is in deepest humility, with teal
Streaked cOuntenance and Wrinkle0

ward to the cold, unfeeling world the
merciless castigatiOn to which The
Statesman has been subjected by thai
peerless exponent of miscarried jour-

scared feelings and lacerated back we
turn to appeal for sympathy under that
awful retributive punishment so cru

suspected so much power-sO terrific

such a scorching array of facts and
figures marshaled with the over

We knew we didn't amount to much
in the estimation Of the "Bunc" and its
bunch of discharged politicians and
political bosses. We knew we were
being daily held up to scorn as a fall
ure, enthusiastically and financially.
We knew the day would come when
the "Bunc" would gleefully announce
our defeat. But We didn't realize the
end was yet.
To us came the idea there were sew
eral more rounds to be fought. We
knew we were getting groggy-knew,
too, our second, third and fouth wind
had petered out and that we had bel
lows to mend. We grasped, dimly, the
notion that we were going to be kick
ed when we went down and were pre-
pared for it.
But We did not believe, under the
rules of the game, we were going to
be counted out before we hit the mat
But so it is The "Bunc' declares
it. The "Bunc" says we are "all in.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.

SOMETHING TO THINK ABOUT.
Which is the better, Mr.. Reader! 10
pay fifty cents a month for a lot Oh
trash you won't read, or haven't the
time to read, or to pay half that price
for all the news dished up in readable
shane. in an attractive, entertaining
manner so that you may CLEAN all the
facts without wasting time hunting
through columns of rubbish for the one
story that will interest you?
1t is with this idea in mind The
Statesman has cut the price of sub
scriptions to twenty-five cents a month.
You are getting more real news Tor
that lower price than you get When
you pay sixty-five cents for the Union
and forty cents for that poorest excuse
for a newspaper, the Evening Bunc.'
The Statesman expected some run
ming to cover. some lying attempts on
the part of the "Bunc' to misrepresent
the facts. 1t was bound to happen
when the owners of other papers came
to realize the immensely of the scheme
which will give to every householder
in Walla Walla city and county real
newspaper at twenty-five cents a
month or one cent a copy
Think of it! Not a single live news
feature has been curtailed. On the
contrary they will be increased as fast
as plans long matured may be put in
operation.
Yet you pay but half the price!
