Minstrels Make Hit.

Culligan & Hockwalds minstrels
made real hit with the audience at
the Pickwick last night, If applause
and laughter count for anything.
These negro minstrels have bunch
of fun in them and they have a way
OF telling it all so that their audi
tors can't help laughing. The first
part is free from the time-honored,
silly gags" and the second is full Of
entertaining numbers. One of the
best things in the show was Pet
Woods song. Blame the music" He
did 1t well and got rounds of ap-
piause. Miss Eva Prince sang kiss
me right" in pleasing way, as did
Mable Turner in Nobody knows no
body cares" Nat Turner's 'I didn't
ask" made a hit with the audience.
In the olio Arthur L. Prince and his
educated hoops are one of the fea-
lures. Clarence Macklin is a very &C.
centric dancer. Should this company
ever return they will be greeted with
a packed house.-Santa Diego Daily

G|DDY OLD GOTHAM
READY FOR DEBAUCH
ALL NEW YORK WILL
JOIN IN ANNUAL ORGY
Hawkers and Hucksters Prepare Peo-
pie for Wild Revel-Great Amount
Of Change Will Be Put in Channels
of Circulation-Police Not Strict
Tonight.

New York, Dec. 31.-All laws, writ
ten and unwritten. sanctioned by leg
islatures or the customs of polite
society. will be smashed into bits to-
night, when a million or so of New
Workers join in the annual New York
debauch. Reyel or merry-making are
not the words for the festivities
nothing short of debauch or orgy will
do Justice to New York's welcome to
the infant year.
All day long the premonition of
what is to come could be found along
Broadway. The tin horn spectators
were out as usual with their wagon
loads of voice runners and ear de-
stroyers, carefully attuned so that
no two makes just the came quality
of dissonance. And then there was
the ticker man, who, quite ignor-
ant no doubt of the police commits
sioner's edict, distributed at five per"
the little punches of moulty feathers
atop of a little bamboo stick
Then there was the confetti man,
who in the last few years has become
a new figure in the cult of hucksters
who get rich on the foolish fancies
Of others.
The revel of New Years eve has its
good uses. 1t turns loose a large
amount of change which is in great
demand at present. It has been con-
servatively estimated that the spirit
OF exuberance tonight will put into
circulation at least 100000.
All the theaters will be crowded,
and into the box offices alone has
been turned more than 100000 Then
comes the suppers at the hotels and
restaurants, which mean an addition
al item of s250,000. OF this amount
the Broadway restaurants will get
s150,00O Flowers, cabs, tips, favors
and music bring up the total to the
half million mark.
As IN the matter of passing upon
the legal quality of Sunday amuse-
ments. the police will have to use
their judgment in keeping the exub-
erance of the New Years eve revel-
ers within bounds. The patrolmanr
in a fatherly manner, will merely look
On except where the exhileration ver-
ges on rowdyism or where some ef-
fervescent young man attempts to
poke a miniature feather duster
technically known as "tickler," into
the face of some giddy young mourn
er
The inspectors will be stationed al
the various points where New YORK
people are wont to congregate to see
the old year out. Sngularly enough
in the past, the greatest trouble in the
way of uncontrolled enthusiasm mas
been found in the shadow of ole
Trinity church, at the head Of Wal
street where the ancient chimes rine
out a farewell to the dying year and
a greeting to the new. The quie'
which reigns about the old edifict
has year after year been turned into
q bedlam, which can be best descrlo'
ed by an adjective derived from The
traditional enemy of churches.

Want Automobile Road.

Aberdeen, Wash.-Capitalist of
Grays Harbor and Montesano who are
backing the proposed electric road that
is supposed to control the roads of
the county, say that the road will be
pushed through to completion. If the
county commissioners are interfered
with by those who hold that the coun-
ty should not give such franchise.
property owners between Montesano
and Aberdeen, they declare, stand
ready to give the required right of
way.
Inasmuch as the road is projected
also for the north beach summer re-
sorts, there is renewed activity among
the owners of south beach summer
resort property for the pushing of n
wagon and automobile road to that
section, which lies south of Westport.
Nearly all the necessary waivers have
been obtained. 1t is estimated the
road will cost 100000.

"SWEET INNISFAILEN'' AT
THE OREGON TONIGHT

Tonight Mr. Bernard DAILY, in his
new romantic Irish play, Sweet In
nisfallen." will be with us. Mr.. DAILY
is under the management of Mr.. A. E
Caldwell who has arranged with the
Civic and Improvement association
to give one performance of the su-
perb combination under their aus
pices.
As star comedian in Irish drama.
Mr.. Daily has no superiors, His voice
has all the tender sweetness the sing
ing of Irish ballads require. For the
past two or three seasons. Mr. DAILY
has appeared in Rory of the Hills"
Amy Leslie. that clever woman crit
ic of the Chicago News last season
said of Mr. DAILY in his appearance in
Chicago Down at the Columbus
theater Mr. Bernard DAILY, clean
cut, 1.-THE young man with lovely
falsetto voice. played the blacksmith
yesterday so well that it reused a
wonder why he should not be more
up toward the Stair house where the
Irish comedians thrive best. Mr.
DAILY wisely doesn't follow in the
mighty footsteps of the Immortal Joe.
He wields the sledge not as II to the
manner born but he makes his horse
shoe all right and sings betimes me-
lodiously He has put n song wher-
ever one might strike the Irish fancy
and sings them all nicely.
Mr. DAILY was originally a yodler,
but rushing into Irish picture play
ing, he subdues his yodel gracefully
He triples and doubles, but instead
of the mountain "Hulyahayii," Mr..
Daily COOS dreamily. He Acts We'll
can dance, sing and attract and that
means good Irish comedy"
This is an unbiased criticism of Mr..
Days work by one of the best
known dramatic newspaper critics ex-
tant. Amy Leslie of the Chicago News.
Mr.. Daily has better vehicle in his
new play. Sweet Innisfallen," for
the display of his unquestioned tall
ent than ever before, and an evening
of genuine dramatic entertainment,
song and sensation is assured.

Big Prunc Crop.

Vancouver, Wash.-It is the opinion
Of prominent packers that in Clark
county this year over 5000, 900 pounds
Of prunes have been cured. Much
larger quantity has been produced,
but many have spoiled owing to a
lack of curing facilities to handle the
enormous crop. 1t is difficult accord
ing to packers. to make an accurate
estimate OF the production of the
county owing to the fact that some Of
the fruitgrowers. especially of the
Lewis river country haul to Portland

BLOSSOMS THAT DO NOT MIX
Florist Tells Of a Few Things He Has
Learned in His Business Of
Handling Flowers.

The florist frowned as he took UP
an order for a table decoration. THAT
will never do" he muttered. After
calling up the customer and suggest
ing a change. he told his new clerk a
few things.
you must never take an order that
calls for a mixture Of mignonette and
roses" he said. "A centerpiece Of
those two flowers wouldn't last half
through the luncheon. They simply
wilt one another. l don't know why,
but they can't get along together.
at is true of many flowers. Pansies,
for instance, last twice as long as If
they are not combined with any other
flower, and the same may be said of
violets. Jonquils and daffodils, on the
other hand, seem to get a new lease
Of life If you combine considerable
green with them. Carnations will go
all to pieces if you combine them
with roses, although the roses do not
seem to be affected.
ut is more striking in combinations
of green with flowers. If you try
to use an entirely different type Of
foliage from what the flower is used
to, 1t won't last so long. So l never
put feathery foliage with lilies of the
valley, for you know it's natural foli-
age is a thick leaf. l never use thick
leaves with carnations, for their foil
age is Of the feathery type. It isn't as
though the flowers fought. but theS
