Poultry Exhibit.

A meeting of the Polk County
Poultry Raisers' Association was helc
Saturday, and it was decided to charge
no admission at the doors during tht
poultry show to be held in Dallas
December 26, 27 and 2s. This will in.
sure a larger attendance, and better

in poultry and poultry raising.
Catalogues containing the rules oil

offered have been issued, and these,
together with the official entry blank,
may be secured by anyone interested
In the show, from either Claud Shaw,
of Dallas, president Of the association,
or from J. E. Beezley, of Falls City,
who is secretary.
In addition.to the official prizes to
be awarded by the association, many
valuable special prizes in cash and
merchandise have been subscribed by
the various business men of this city.
The patent coops recently purchased
by the association were received in
Dallas last week, all arrangements
have been completed for the installa.
ton of the various exhibits in the big
hall in the Riley building, and every
thing indicates that the first annual
poultry show Of the new association
will be complete success.

EUGENE WAS EASY
Dallas COIIegians Defeat Oregon
Basketball Team by Decisive
Score.

In the basketball game played at
the college gymnasium Friday night
Dallas College defeated the team from
the University of Oregon by score
of so to II.
In spite of the one-sidedness of the
score, the game was fast and hotly
played from start to finish. The
Eugene boys were quick footed and
cool headed and, individually,
each played an excellent game, but
their team work was faulty, and they
were clearly no match for their heavier
opponents, who fully equalled them
in speed, and whose team work was
almost perfect.
Nevertheless they fought brilliantly
until the last second Of play, winning
the hearty admiration of the spectators
and Of their opponents by the grit and
determination that they showed.
Throughout the game and during the
remainder Of their stay in Dallas, they
conducted themselves in a most cour-
teous manner, showing themselves on
all occasions to be thorough gentle
men and sportsmen.
Ramp played the star game for the
visitors, scoring out Of the II points
won, and Shaw, the big Dallas center,
led the home team, throwing out of
the 10 field goals that were made.
The team work of the Dallas aggre-
cation was almost fauItless, and when
the game between the home college
and the 0. A. G. is called, one of the
fastest and flercest struggles of the
year may be expected.
The lineup of last Friday night was

Grows Fine Vegetables.

WALDPORT, Or, Dec. 5-(To the
Editor thinking perhaps some OF
the OBSERVER readers might be inter
ested in hearing from Alsea Bay, will
send you few lines. We are
having lovely weather, warm and
pleasant. We have young lettuce,
radishes and mustard. Alsea against
the world for cabbagel 1t grows on
both ends Of the stalk. Beat that if
you can. I see in the OBSERVER that
some one has raised a potato large
enough to make four meals for fam
lily. Bring on your large potatoes, and
I will show or weigh with you. The
Alsea country cannot be surpassed for
growing fine vegetables and berries.

The Christmas Dinner.

In spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia means literally bad cook, il
will not be fair for many to lay the
blame on the cook if they begin the
Christmas Dinner with little appetite
and end it with distress or nausea. II
may not be fair for any to do that-let
us hope for the sake of the cook The
disease dyspepsia indicates a bad
stomach, that is weak stomach,
rather than bad cook, and for a
weak stomach there is nothing equal
to Hoods Sarsaparilla. 1t gives the
stomach vigor and tone, cure dyspep-
sia, creates appetite, and makes eating
the pleasure it should be.

Pleasant FraternaI Visit.

Richard Scott, OF Milwaukee, Grand
Master Of the I. o. o. F. in Oregon,
paid an official visit to the Dallas
lodge Saturday night. After the
business meeting was ended, the
members of the Rebekah lodge made
a visit to their brothers, with a rich
store of refreshments, and the remain
der of the evening was devoted to
social amusement. Short and appro-
PIRATE speeches were delivered by the
Grand Master and several of the MEM
bers of the lodge, and Mr.. and Mrs. A.
Monk amused the guests with some OF
their clever and original work, receiv-
ing hearty applause from all their
hearers.

NOTED LECTURER COMING
DIR. John Merritte Driver VIII Visit
Dallas Wednesday Evening,
December IS.

DR.. John Merritt Driver will lecture
at the Woodman Hall, Wednesday,
December Is, filling the second date
on the Lyceum entertainment course
which is being given in Dallas this
year, under the auspices of Dallas
College. Those who heard DR.. Drivers
lecture on the japanese question last
winter will be eager to hear him once
more, and those who were unable to
be present upon that occasion will do
we'll to take advantage Of the oppor-
tunity which is now offered.
With striking stage presence, and
rich and powerful voice, DR.. Driver
combines wit that is inimitable, a
logic that is faultless, and a mastery
OF the Engligh language that is mar
velous. His use of words reminds one
of the swift and skillful play of a
trained juggler, his inexhaustible
fund of apt and expressive adjectives
being source of constant wonder to
his hearers. With these words he
paints like the impressionist, in burn
ing masses Of suggestive color, or like
the skilled draughtsman, in delicate
traceries of finest detail.
In unity, his lectures are marvels OF
construction. Thoughts apparently
having no bearing on the subject in
hand, are introduced, enlarged upon,
explained, until they flash upon the
mind of the hearer with vital
So aptly worded are his
lectures, SO impressively delivered, so
we'll CONSTRUCTED, and every portion so
perfectly balanced with the others, that
one hearing them is almost con-
strained to compare them with the
stately sweep of some perfect orchestral
harmony.

All Oregon Apple Show,

Though dairying is rather monopo-
lizing public attention now, the apple
growers of the State who have made
such marvellous showings in their
respective sections at the fruit fairs,
and who later received such fattering
comment through window displays in
Portland's store windows, are plan
ming an even greater success by COM
bining next year in an event to be
known as an "All Oregon Apple Show. +"
They want to get in training for the
great race at the Alaska 7 ukon- Pacific
Exposition in 19O9.-Carlton Sentinel.

FARMERS WILL ORGANIZE
Large Attendance of Hop Raisers
Expected at Saturdays
Meeting.

All hop growers and all who are in
t9rested in this industry are desired to
be present at the meeting which will
be held in the county courthouse in
Dallas, Saturday afternoon, Decem-
ber IA, for the purpose of organizing
a hop growers union. The meeting
has been called by s. Fl. Petrie,
prominent hop man of this vicinity,
and it will be presided over by him.
Mr.. Petrie in speaking of the coming
meeting said that he hoped that dele
gates would be present, not only from
all parts of Polk county but from all
Oregon and the other Pacific States, as
the plan is not to organize a mere
local organization, but one which will
have strong and far reaching infiu-
ence, and which will be able to do
extensive and efficient work for the
developments of the hop raising indus
try in the West.

Our Anna Josephine.

She came to us in the month Of May;
will tell you how, it wss just this way:
Death came to the home, and the baby fair
Was left without mothers care.
Left to drift from the harbor safe,
Roam at will like the city waif
Left to move with the human tide,
No arm to shield, no hand to guide,
Who win take the little charge,
And all her infant footsteps guard
Wipe away the tear that starts.
And sOothe the little aching heart?
In Whispered silence now we wait
For an answer that viii tell her fate;
'Tis said the future we do not know,
But tell US now, is it veal or woe?
A ray of hope, like the brightest noon,
Pierces now the shadoWy gloom;
For Grandmamma looks on the scene
And says "I'll take Anna Josephine.
"Ill take her by the hand and lead
Her in the hour Of sorest need;
Teach her all Of wOmans ways,
From infancy 10 ripper days"
Tucked away in the cradle nigh,
Listening to Grandma's lullaby,
With smiling face and brow serene,
Lies our Anna Josephine.

John Flanagan, hobo and religious
fanatic, was arrested and brought
before Judge L. d. Brown yesterday,
on the charge Of vagrancy. After
hearing what he had to say, the Judge
gave him 80 minutes in which to leave
town, but the man refused to go,
declaring that he had been sent to this
city by the Lord and had been com
manded to beg for his living. This
plea appealed to the stern minister Of
justice, and Mr.. Flanagan will be per-
mitted to board and lodge at the city's
expense for few days, and to put 10

lated mud from the crosswalks.
