There is love story to be sure, and
Gilmore not only is the determining
factor in the victory that comes to his
school, but also he is successful in
his quest for the hand of the girl OF
his choice. The girl is the sister of his
dearest college schum. .sThe story Is
prettily told and most beautifully in
terpreted, for Mr. Gilmore has sur
rounding him company OF -exceptioIial
strength. A feature is the crowd OF
handsome young fellows who make up
the rowing crews. They sing college
songs and give college yells with a
zest and natura1ress that carries one
back to the days When he lived through
these happiest of times in the lives OF
young men who have passed through
the joyous period of college life. The
play was handsomely staged-in fact
it was one of the most satisfactory
productions of the Observation-Disclosures

OUTGROWN METHODS.

The true reasons for the present
paralysis of the railroad system of the
country are coming to be more gener-
ally understood and in that fact lies
the chief hope for new and better meth
DDS of railroad operation. Chester A.
Legg, in a four column review Of the
railroad situation in that conservative
and carefully edited newspaper, the
Boston Transcript, ascribes the rail-
road paralysis of today definitely and
clearly to the policy of ruinous econ
omy of operation. Nine out of ten rail-
road presidents in this country today,
he declares, hold their positions, not by
virtue of the fact that they are serving
the people the best, but that they are
running their roads cheaper than they
or their predecessors did last year.
The railroad serves two publics-the
investing public and the patrOnizing
public. says the Minneapolis Journal.
The first furnishes the capital, the Sec
second also furnishes the franchise for
operation, permits the exercise of the
right of eminent domain, and gives the
railroad it's public character as COM
mon carrier The basic principle of the
policy of excessive economy is this:
Strain every nerve and muscle to take
as much as possible out of the patron
izing public at the smallest possible eX-
penditure, SO as to give to the investing
public the largest possible profit. This
policy has been brought to high de-
gree of perfection in the northwest,
where the operating expenses are only
a little over so per cent of the gross
earnings. Elsewhere, 65 per cent in
considered on the average a fair and
profitable proportion of earnings to
spend in operation.
The evils that grow out of this
policy are manifold and manifest. Car
shortage and terminal congestion are
among them. These are not evils that
have suddenly developed. They have
been growing gradually worse for ten
years. When mass the tonnage" be-
came the motto of the railroad manager

ADJUSTMENTS
TO GIVE CLASSIC CONCERT.

At last the citizens of Walla Walla
are to be given the opportunity of
hearing first class army band in a
first class concert. This is a novelty
in itself, as army bands, as a rule,
do not give select concerts where the
general public can avail themselves of
the opportunity of hearing them. Few
to engage a select audience with a
production of highly classical and uni
versally recognized music. but the
Fourteenth Cavalry band, through
diences of this class and the recogni-
ton it commands has placed itself on
this level This band is admitted to
be one of the best in the service and
to substantiate its reputation it won
first prize over seven army bands, all
of which We're good. which competed
at the Tacoma hotel, Tacoma, during
the fall maneuvers.
Since the bands return from the en-
campment it has been worked up to a
state Of perfection which is seldom,
if ever, attained by an army band.
The people of this city have not had
an opportunity to hear this organic
alton in concert since it's return. The
concert which is to be put on at the
Keylor Grand, theater on Thursday
evening, February II is classic one
from start to finish with the excep-
ton of one or two numbers which are
put on to show the great extremes to
which the band can be put, such as
burlesque music, etc. A feature of
the concert will be the descriptive Sc
lection "A Trip to Coney Island
which portrays the sounds to be heard
at that great summer resort, includ-
ing Dot Leedle Sherman Band" which
in itself is novelty.
The band will be assisted by Mrs
B. O. Driver and Prof A. c. Jackson of
Whitman college, both well known in
the city. unsteady and socially Alto
gether the concert will be one well
worth hearing and the time and money
invested by those who attend will
never be regretted The nominal pric-
es 75c, soc, 35c and csc will place
seat within reach of all.

DAVIS were abandoned for capacity
trainloads, moved when they accumu-
lated and not before, the trouble be-
gan. When the demand for dividends
became so insistent that the surplus
and equipment funds were raided, and
expenditures for trackage and engines
and cars were carefully pared down.
the trouble became more acute. Rail-
road men from presidents down to sec
ton bosses are out nowadays to make
a record'-in other words to screw ex-
penses down to minimum. The Off
icial who authorizes an extra eXpendi-
ture for the benefit of the public is
called ION the carpet to explain his
temerity.
Mr. Legg brings home to this econ
omy policy, also, the responsibility for
the increasing number of accidents
with their terrible toll Of life and limb.
The "olock system" is adopted on
some railroad with great flourish of
trumpets-and it's employees are en-
cOuraged and ordered to violate the
rules daily. under plea of ''extraordi-
nary pressure of business In order
to pay dividends on watered stock.
railroads have not increased track fac
ilities and have kept their employees
working for such long hours that vigil
lance is impossible 1t is coming to
be the universal rule on railroads, he
declares, for employees to take chances
in order to make record" 1t is
only a comparatively small percentage
of these numerous rule infractions that
yields the steadily increasing number
of fatal accidents.
This indictment Of the railroads is
not new to us in the northwest but it
is encouraging to find that the east is
getting the right idea. &c

HARMONY AND HAIR.

Why do musicians wear long hair
Or to put it more simply, why are
luxuriant and unshOrn locks an al
most invariable concomitant of success
in performing music before the public
Science, whose keen and analytic eye
nothing escapes, trembles in confusion
before this query which she cannot
answer. Sociology and archaeology are
fan to confess that they cannot ex-
plain the strange fact Is there some
subtle and inexplicable connection be-
tween harmony and hair? Would
Paderewski lose the magic of his fingers,
as Samson lost his muscle. if he got a
haircut? Alas. these are are matters SO
reconcile that the merely human mind
cannot hope to fathom them. A writer
in a recent English magazine discusses
the topic gingerly and with a show Of
scientific method but without results.
musicians who have extraordinary
heads of hair draw by far the largest
audiences, and he makes this classifi-
cation.
F'irst-Men who have won fame
chiefly as composers have been short
haired.
Second-Those entirely famous as
executants have long hair.
Third-All great composer eNecut-
ants have long hair.
This is all well enough, but why?
The only reason he puts forth--and
that is advanced weakly-is that relig-
ion and music have always been closely
connected and that priests of all ma
tions used to wear long hair. This is
mere tergiversation 1t simply changes
the form of the query from why do
musicians have long hair" to why
did priests have long hair?''
Unless some master analyst tackles
this question seriously and, getting an
unshakable half Nelson lock, throws it
three points down on the mat, we fear
it must pass irrevocably into the limbo
Of the unsolvable.
