"A MESSAGE FROM MARS"
Interesting Play Well Staged at the
keyIor Grand.

A good sized audience at the Key
lor Grand last night greeted "a Mes
sage From Mars a play, which while
somewhat prcachy, nevertheless has
an originality in it's main idea which
makes it popular. In spite of the
weakness of some members of the
cast, interest was intense throughout
the play.
Wallace Widdecombe as Horace
Parker" the selfish man and the lead
ing character of the play, was good.
His quick speech and his absolute
elf-confdence give good character
protrayal In some places he does not
pected of one in his circumstances but
taken as a whole his acting was well
up to the standard in his difficult role.
The Messenger from Mars played
comparatively easy part, but was
too vigorous at times in his language
where calm impressiveness would have
answered much better. He was, how
ever good and won frequent applause
AS tramp, Alfred Beaumont played
well and was well liked by the audi
ence. The rest of the cast was medi-
OGRE and the makeup of some of the
minor characters, poor.
The play touches a good healthy
moral and is written along entirely
original lines, making il refreshing
and interesting. The conception of
"Otherdom" given by the Messenger
as it is practiced on Mars, is some
what startling. However his convert
is a thorough one wher he finishes. 1t
is a play well worth the seeing, al
though at times it gives one some I'M
comfortable qualms concerning ones
own state of consciousness along this
line.

THE WALLA WALLA SPIRIT THAI
BRINGS RESULTS.

Too much cannot be said in COM
mendation of the business men of
WalIa Walla who have come to the
front in the present difficulty that has
been facing the city with reference to
the completion of the city hall and fire
stations how under construction. The
erection of the buildings was under
taken at a time when it seemed appar-
ent that the municipal bonds could be
easily disposed of. In fact there were
several firms who appeared anxious to
make the investment, and contracts for
placing the bonds were entered into.
However, the money market in the
east frightened and an excuse was
found by the investment companies, in
a technical legal question, for refus-
ing to fulfill their agreement.
With entire justifiable confidence in
the integrity of the bonding compan-
les the city began the erection of the
much needed buildings and when the
N''''N
purchase the authorized issue of bonds,
the city faced a trying predicament
There was. and is, no doubt i'll the
minds of the city officials and the best
legal authority in the state that the
the bonds are perfectly legal. but it
would take time to determine this
question in the courts during which
period it would be necessary to sus-
pend operations on the public build
ings. With true Walla Walla spirit,
and with confidence in the city. the
business men have come forward and
said there should be no delay and
that the buildings should be complet-
ed and they have backed their asser-
lions by subscribing for bonds.
1t is a we'll known fact that there is
plenty of available money in Walla
Walla to build several buildings of the
size and cost of the proposed city hall
and fire stations, but those citizens
who have published to the world that
local capital has entire confidence in
the integrity of the municipality, have
done much toward the advancement of
the interests of the Garden City.
For one. it appears that fractional
interests have been laid aside and a
united effort made to accomplish some
thing. OF course the men who have
subscribed for the bonds will re-
Ceive good returns on their money but
they are deserving of much credit re-
CARELESS of This fact. for with the su-
perior opportunities in this country
their money could be made to bring
better returns and they are making
something of a sacrifice for the good
of WaNa Walla. Let the good work &C
on. So

. STATE ESTRAYS LAW.

The Oponion of Attorney General At
kinson, given in response to an inquiry
from Columbia county. which directed
attention TO an apparent conflict be-
tween the acts of 1905 and 1907 relat-
ing TO estrays, seemingly clears up the
issue. In the act of 1907 it is provided
that ''estrays in any county in which
at least three-fourths of the area. out
side of the cities and towns therein.
shall be under Enclosure or fence, may
be taken up at other times than be-
tween October l and March 1.

''estrays may be taken into the pos
session of the finder. registered, adj

safe keeping during the months from

was apparent, rather than real. The

PUT THE BAN ON HAZING.

The unmanly practice of hazing re-
ccived a body blow at Corvallis BY
unanimous vote, and amid mucn en-
thusiasm. the student assembly at the
state agricultural college denounced
hazing and took the admirable step of
resolving to put the ban on the prac-
tice az that institution for all time.
The action was taken after an address
by President Kerr, in which the evils
and possible consequences of the prac-
tice were wildly portrayed, and we
NAV take it that the student action
is DR.. Kerr's very excellent method of
inaugurating the reform. The incident
affords occasion for unstinted COM
mendation. both of the students and
the college executive. 1t is a course
that commends itself to every other
institution. and is very worthy ex-
ample for all of them to follow. 1t re-
calls that admirable philosophy that
good often if not always comes even
out of unfortuitous happenings. and
that since its bad consequences were
comparatively trivial, the late affair at
the state college by its timely warn
ing and significant example of the dis
srous possibilities of hazing, has
served useful purpose. In their bub-
bling buoyancy and optimism the stu
dents have not realized where haZing
led to. They are in the thoughtless pc
riod, through which all the world has
to pass. and in the mair. have only to
be intelligently shown in order to ex-
hibit good wholesome conduct. This,
apparently. President Kerr has realized
and with wise discretion has seized
upon the late occurrence as text
from which to teach ais students, a
vivid living truth egon Journal.

"Macorda was greeted like the old

the Portland, (Maine,) Advertiser. "She

comment on her voice would be de-
cidedly out of place as mere REPETITION.
She was given reception of marked

sang well enough to justify it to the
fullest extent.
Never has her interestingly unaf-
fected personality been more attrac-

liant mellowness of tone which has
made her favorite here in former
years. and for the encore which the
