''The lady will go up on the eleva-
tor with me, and go down another
way, when you and Cedric signal that
no one can see her depart. Now,
you can arrange for a room for me
that has a connecting room, so that
you and Cedric and any witnesses you
want can be in the connecting room
while they (the detectives) watch or
break in on me-"
Brewers little plan to confound his
wife's detectives worked like charm.
The fly-cops, 1t is alleged. secured a
room opposite that of Brewer and
stood watch during the night, while
Brewer and his friends made merry
and waited for the grand denoument.
The spies did not break into the room,
however, but a short time later the d.
vorce suit was brought.
During the previous hearing, which
ended in a mistrial, an attorney for
Mrs. Brewer testified on oath that he
had seen a woman coming from the
room occupied by Brewer The latter
however, produced a large number OF
witnesses to prove that he had spent
the night with male friends and that
the "woman in the case" had been es-
corted out OF the hotel Immediately
after playing her part in the Httie
drama of domestic infelicity.

Prohibition Betters Nothing.

If 1t could be shown that in COM
munities where there are no saloon!
there was less crime or less drunken.
ness or better morals in any way, the
prohibitionists would have at least
one good argument why their policy
should be adopted. But none of these
things are 50. 80
The government census reports
show that crime is increased in prohi-
bition states.
They show that New Hampshire
which has been a prohibition state for
40 years, has more paupers in proper
tion to its population than any other
state in the union.
They show that there Is more
drunkenness in dry cities than there
is In wet.
They show that prohibition states
do not grow as rapidly as states next
door to them which are under the IL
cense system. People will not build
business blocks in prohibition COM
munities not because they are friend
ly to the saloon, but because prohibi-
tion is a mark of stagnant town.
People do not vote for prohibition
until they have become mentally mar
row and unprogressive.-C Central Com.

Dismal Prospect for Prohibition.

After the first fervor of exultatlor
over their alleged victories in the Nov
ember elections, the prohibitionists''
ardor would cool down, II 1t we're
possible for him to look the true facts
in the case These are that. but five
states out of the forty-eight have
adopsed prohibition, including the
new state of Oklahoma. That In the
country there are but twenty politi-
cal prohibitionists In the state legis-
latures and not one congressman, and
prohibition in the states where the law
is enacted 1t is dismal failure.
But, above all, we must consider the
fact that last year the United States
drank 11.4O9,252 more gallons of
whisky than in the previous fiscal
year, consuming a total of 1874, ,142,O74
gallons, besides largely increased
amount OF beer. Spirits last year
paid an internal revenue tax of $780,
336. 902, an increase over the previous
year of s12,542.S46.-Central Com

ENORMOUS GROWTH OF
AMERICAN RAILROADS

In connection with the 39th an
niversary OF the completion of the
first Pacific railroad, which occurred
a few days ago, attention is called by
writer in the June Appletons to the
fact that when these roads were pro-
jected the ground on which they were
urged, aside from their Importance as
military necessity, was that they
would afford an outlet for reaching
oriental trade.
1t was held by those who advocated
the building OF the roads that they
would give great incentive to the
sale of American products In China
and Japan. Apparently nobody al
least among the members OF congress,
who discussed the matter at great
length, gave much thought to the
question of local business that the
roads would obtain from the territory
through which they ran. In fact, the
enormous bountles and land grants
given to these early lines were be-
slowed with the idea that they would
have almost nothing to depend on IN
the way of local freight.
In view of this early attitude II Is
almost laughable to reflect that of the
enormous total OF traffic carried by
the various western roads 95 per cent
originates directly in their territory
While American trade with the Ori-
ent has expended tremendously, the
early dreams OF commercial greatness
derived from this source have been
surpassed by a far more wonderful
dream realized right at home.
Still the promoters of the Pacific
lines are not to be blamed for falling
TO realize what was In store for these
roads for the great empire they have
helped to develop, for in 1860 the
total freight movement westward from
the Missouri river into the Santa Fe
district was $4,000 tons, and there
was hardly to be foreseen that these
figures would be multiplied nearly a
million times in a little more than
40 years.
As the Appleton article points out
this astounding growth has revolution
lied the methods Of railroad construc-
ton in the west. The newer western
lines are being built for the business
in the territory they traverse. to de-
velop sections without transportation
and to afford facilities for the rapid
ly growing tonnage of the Pacific
coast states, which the existing ROADS
have been unable to handle.

PLAYS RICH JOKE ON SUSPICIOUS WIFE

New York, May 19.-William S.
Brewer, publisher and inventor. will
probably be afforded another oppor-
tunity tomorrow to recite the details
Of the clever ruse by which ne out
witted detectives employed by his
Wife, Edith Ainslle Noble Brewer, and
turned the divorce suit instituted by
that lady into a roaring farce. At
the former hearing Justice Platzek
declared a mistrial and the suit is
scheduled for retrial tomorrow.
At the previous hearing, Brewer re-
counted a tale that should make the
shade of Boccacio and his modern
French imitators hang their heads in
shame at their lack of imagination
and literary finesse.
According to Brewers story, he
made trip to Pittsburs last January
lowed by spies in the employ of Mrs.
Brewer. who was anxious to secure
evidence TO be used against him in a
suit for divorce. Being of an oblig-
ing nature, he decided to furnish the
I-evidence" to order. and wrote to his
lawyer in New York outlining a plan
which for sheer audacity and origi-
nality has seldom been equaled in lit
,erature or life.
The details of this scheme are told
in the letter from Brewer to his attor-
ney, Harry Eckhard:
MY Dear Eckhard:-I have seen
several parties that seem to be travel
ing with me. and l have tried to de-
tect if they are following me. I have
a scheme to find out, which 1 hope
will meet with your approval. 1 will
go TO New York, arriving at o'clock
Saturday evening. 1 will meet lady
in the parlor of the Astor House.
Cedric. my son, will be there with the
lady and will introduce you. When
I come, I will not recognize you, but
will speak to the lady and register,
~. a. Reaful and wife which means
you are a fool I'll register 80 1t

AIR OF REFINEMENT
SURROUNDED CIRCUS
seIls-Floto Show Very Much Enjoyed
BY Young and> Old.

The big show is on its gentle way
and will reach Pendleton on May ~
The California tour was a perfect
ovation and the press comments
truthful and conservative. The san
Luis Obispo Breeze says:
"How did you like the circus? was
asked of everyone this morning. And
al lspoke highly of the performance
from start to the finish.
In fact the Sells-Floto show was one
of the most enjoyable exhibitions OF
modern times The acts could not be
better improved upon as far as novHi-
ty was concerned in the acrobatic line
the clowns were up to the average
and introduced some new features, the
aerial artists were the best that nave
been seen here, the horsemanship
was parexcellence.
zone pleasing feature of the Sells
Floto show Is the fact that the pro-
prietor,, H. H. Tammen, Will not per-
NIT any ungentlemanly conduct on the
part Of any Of the attaches. The
vendors OF peanuts, etc, piled their
trade in a manner that no person
could object to. The usual cry Of
"He'er yer young fellow, buy a bag
of peanuts and show your girl yer
a good fellow an she'll love yer
more" was conspicuous by its abb
sence, and everyone was very thank
full
"a spirit OF refinement prevailed
throughout. This spirit spread
through the city with the consequence
that there was not a single arrest
made. Heretofore the jail has been
crowded the morning after circus
and that this was not the case this
morning is due to the fact that the
Sells-Floto show is a clean, genteel
performance"
The Santa Barbara Press says:
"The Sells-F1oto circus, which show
ed here yesterday, was one Of the best
ever seen In this city.
"The performance given was first
class in every respect, number Of
new specialtles being introduced.
"Slnce visiting this city year ago
the circus has greatly enlarged and
improved in every way, and now pos
sesses fine menagerie and a number
