Artisans Entertain.

The United Artisans held their
regular monthly open meeting last
night in their hall in the Odd Fell
lows building, and rendered one of
the most delightful amateur musical
and literary programs that has been
given in the city for some time.
At $3.50 p. m. the spacious hall
was alive with Artisans and their In
vited guests. w. w. Hill presided,
and in an appropriate manner paid
tribute to the stability of the order
OF Artisans, and to the beauty of the
many ladies present.
The Artisan orchestra, composed
of seven pieces, ably assisted by Mr..
Robert Savage and Miss Nina Bush
nell, rendered the opening number
OF the program.
Miss Marguerite Ostrander de-
lighted the audience with reading,
which received a hearty encore.
One of the best musical numbers
on the program was the vocal solo
given by Miss Crissle Clark, who has
one OF the sweetest voices in Salem.
Mr. Frank Churchill played the ac-
compartment in his usual faultless
manner.
The treat OF the evening was the
readings given by Miss Eugena Smell
ing. Her rendition of "The Hay
Crap" to use trite saying, brought
down the house. Miss Smelling grace
fully responded with pretty little
love story, which ended I'm the
Usual Way"
Mr.. Elmo White favored the audi
ence with an excellent mandolin solo
Miss Joy Turner played the accom-
panlment and the number was giveI
liberal applause.
A pleasant social hour was spent
when many of the old-time game
were played. Refreshments, consist

'Tis sweet to think, that, where Ter we rove, We are sure to find something blissful and dear, And that, when we're far from the lips we love,
 We've but to make love to the lips we are near. The heart, like tendril, accustom'd to cling,
 Let it grow where it will, cannot flourish alone, But will lean to the nearest, and loVeliest thing,
 It can twine with itself, and make closely its own. Then oh! what pleasure, where'er we rove, To be sure to find something, still, that is dear, And to know, when far from the lips we love, We've but to make love to the lips we are near MOORE.

A Great Balloon Race.

ST. LOUIS, Oct. 23.--Intense inter-

big balloon race. News of landing
balloons is coming in fast and there
is much close figuring being done to
determine the approximate distance
covered by each contestant heard
from. Records for flight distances
and for duration are being broken by
nearly every balloon in the race. The
record for the race as sailed from
Paris last year was 402 miles. The
German balloon Pommorn landed to-
day at Asbury Park, N. j., after COW
ering an air line distance from ST..
Louis of nearly $50 miles. The world 8
record for flight, not made in con.
test, however, is 1900 miles, held by
Count Henry de La Vaux of France.
