WE'LL ATTENDED

Several thousand music lovers OF the
city attended the last open-air band
concert of the season given in the city
mark by the Walla Walla Concert band
Yesterday afternoon at 5 o'clock. and
enjoyed the excellent program which
had been prepared for the occasion.
Ths band was at its best, and those
who were present thoroughly appre
GATED tire efforts Of the musicians to
please.
The cool autumn afternoon had
Just the right flavor of brown and fall
ins leaves to make outdoor amuse
ment especially delightful. and the
new park filled a long-felt want for
those who had spent much of the week
indoors and were longing for a stroll
in the open air.
From the opening number to the
close of the program the band boys
held the attention of one of the largest
crowds ever assembled for a like event,
! and as the sun sank behind the west
ern hills the notes of the "Star
Spangled Banner" given as a finale.

CLASSES TO BE
TAUGHT AT Y. M. G.. A,

Y M. C. A. work IS to develop along
new lines in this city this winter, and
with the opening of the night educa-
tional classes next Monday, instruc-
ton will be offered to many who can
not take advantage Of the excellent
educational opportunities of the public
school system of the city.
Large numbers of men who have
good practical experience are shut
out from higher positions in the bust
ness world on account of lack of
technical training. Others find that
additional, or different training is ne
cassary; and some lack both training
and experience.
1t is for these people that the edu-
cational work in the Y. NJ C. A. is de-
signed Men who are busy adj day but
who would like to, spend part of their
evenings in study, will have an oppor-
tunity TO do so in the classes at the
association. Last year the Y. M. c. A.
had zoe, 900 men enrolled in the United
States. Portland alone, had 500. That
there is legitimate field for such
work in this city is easily seen. There
are many who will be glad to avail
themselves of the night classes upon
their opening next week.
The first term begins on Monday,
October and the second tern will be-
gin on January 4. 1909 Arithmetic.
bookkeeping, mechanical drawing,
penmanship, automobiling. and any
other branch that anyone wants and
in which enough interest is shown to
warrant it's support will be taught.
The arithmetic and penmanship
classes will be taught by Prof. C. r.
Cook, head of the commercial depart
ment of the high school Both classes
will be held on Tuesday and Friday

Babe Team Wins,

BY the score of s to 8, the Mixtures
yesterday afternoon put the penlten-
tiary Mavericks down and out in the
last game of the season. While the
score would indicate that the contest
was q rather tame affair both teams
were out for the winning score, and
excitement was tense from start to
close of the game. The Mixture aggre-
cation was strengthened by the addi-
ton of Parks and McA1lister, who
have been playing with professional
teams this season. and the prisoners
were gradually pushed off the victory
board. A fair sized crowd Of ball en-
thusiasts attended the game, and en-
l1vened the contest with their roofing.

THE UBIQUITOUS FLY.
The Greatest Known breeder of Disease
and Distributor Of Germs Here
Again.
EXCLUDE THE PEST FROM YOUR HOMES

And now the harmful, unnec.
essary pest, the house fly, makes
its annual advent, and housekeep
ers are busy making preparations
to EXCUSE 1T from their homes.
Medical science, which has done
so much to eradicate germs and
eliminate coDtaglon, is still baf.
fled by the fly, the greatest known
bl eeder OF disease and distribu.
tor of germs.
Though biologists have studied
the habits of the fly, discovered
why it can walk on it's head, count
ed the exact mum Der of hairs on
It's legs and ascertalned that it is
a stupid, cannibal insect of the
deletel ious type, they have failed
to find any means of exterminat.
ing it.
Housekeepers must still be
bothered and menaced by millions
of flies, which have an equal llk
ing for the sugar bowl and gar
bage pail, and enter the house,
carrying filth from stables, mark
cts and dlsease.infected places.
The old exterminators will be
used again this summer-screens
fly traps, sticky paper and poi
son-all dlsagreeable expedients
which do not seem to diminish
the nuisance.
These play no useful part in
natures economy, and to all IN
teats and purposes their inven.
ton has added to the ags ravation
annoyance and disease.
The cold, damp spring has post
poned the flies appearance, but
are that they will be
as numerous this summer as ever
before.

MEMORIAL. SERMON.
Rev. Fassold Preached 10 the "OId Sol
diers" Last Sunday Morning in
The Lutheran Church.

Twice during the past week
have our old warriors of the COS
marched to the Lutheran church
under the folds of "Old Glory"
The first occasion was at the fu-
neral of their old chaplain, Mich
ael Lehman, which occurred on
last Wednesday. Their second
appearance was on last Sunday,
when they, to the mum Der Of pos
slbly thirty, marched with slow
and faltering step, but with their
old.tIme martial bearing, to
church to listen to the annual
sermon preached this year by
Rev. j. q, Fassold. The theme
selected was Goods Guidance. {"
The text employed was Deut S:2.
"And thou shalt rememb Der all
the way which the Lord thy God
led thee these forty years. J." In a
most earnest and impressiveman
ner, the speaker referred to the
history-maklng period, in which
these old heroes had played such
an important ole, and IN which
thousands of their comrades had
gived the last full measure of de-
votion and sacrifice.
The Women's Relief Corps, No.
Is, attended IN a body. The mu-
sic was appropriate and spirited.
Elaborate and tasteful floral
decorations added much to the
beauty of the interior, and the
presence of numerous flags grace
fully draped about the altar and
choir loft, gave the appropriate
and distinctive tone to the days
exercises.

STORE ROBBED.
Burglars Gain Entrance TO Howard S.
Mellotts Store Near NeedmOre
Last Saturday Night.
GETS NEARLY s1SO,OO IN SPOT CASH,

Three robberies in three sue
cessive weeks is not a bad record
for quiet little Fulton county with
SITS sixty odd churches, and ban
ner Sunday School organization.
This is no reflection on The pow
er and efficiency of church work,
but shows without this influence
there might have been six rob.
berries IN three successive weeks.
The latest victim is Howard S,
Mellott, who owns store two
miles north of Needmore, where
was, years ago, located the Jim.
Gregory Store.
Mr.. Mellott has been doing a
nice business, and as he is some
what isolated from a Bank, free
quently has a considerable sum
of money in the store. This fact
no doubt led some person or per.
sons, on Saturday night of last
week. to gain entrance to his
store. This was done by dis.
placing the transom, and reach
ing down and unlocked the door
from the inside. When once in
side the store, they had things
pretty much their own way, and
when Mr.. Mellott next visited
the store found his worldly pos.
sessions reduced to the tune of
about $3.50 in cash, a lot of
cigars, and other articles.
While Mr.. Mellott feels pretty
certain that he knows who did
the work, and is just waiting un
til he completesA a chain of evi
dence that will fasten the Grimm
ais so securely that they cannot
escape the penltentiary.
