MORAL INFLUENCE
Of BIG FAIR
DIR. STEVENSON GAVE INTEREST
ING ADDRESS LAST NIGHT AT
THE PRESBYTERIAN CHURCH
ON A LIVE QUESTION.

Last evening the Rev. DR.. W. A.
Stevenson spoke on the subject, "The
Moral Aspect of the Influence of the
A.-Y.-P. Exposition on the North
west" choosing for his text the fol-
lowing passage from the book of
Acts, II have much people in this
lows:
This text was written about Cor
inth, the most populous city of
Greece Corinth was strategically
located on the narrow isthmus bear
ing the city's name, which separated
the Gulf of Corinth from the Aegean
sea- On account of the tempestuous-
ness of the sea south of the PelOpOn-
nesus practically all travellers from
the west to the east or vice versa
went through Corinth. This city S
population was, therefore, cosmopoii-
tan. Here Paul lived and preached
and taught for eighteen months.
Seattle is similarly located and
through her gates will flow at least
three million people within the eX-
position period.

fair, the forces for evil locked horns

VICTORY FOR TAM
MANY
DEFEAT ICE MEN BY SCORE OF
8 TO IN AN EXCITING CON-
TEST AT FAIR GROUNDS YES
TERDAY AFTERNOON.

Before large and enthusiastic
bunch of fans. the Tigers of Tammany
hung another scalp to their girdle by
defeating the Icemen Sunday at the
baseball park, the tune rendered be-
ing entitled 80 to g." or "You May
Have Lennon for Pitcher but
Doc Struck Out"
The score seems large but there
wasn't a minute in the game that
there wasn't something sizzling. The
fans were tossed up an article of ball
that is rarely seen off a professional
diamond.
For Tammany Mordica Brown
Armstrong pitched his usual mastery
game and lobbed the pills over the
rubber in a manner most bewilder-
ing to the willow wielders OF the
cannery. He was ably seconded by
Johnny King Sorenson, who posed
behind the bat.
The feature of the game was the
batting of Home-Run Miller, who
lifte dthe sphere for four sacks twice
out of three times up.
For the Icemen, Olds at first was
a tower of strength, and Gillette be-
hind the bat caught an excellent
game. When it came to using the
wallop-stick Arnold was right there
with the hickies.
Other features were contributed
by everybody. but perhaps the sprint
ing of "Jigs Donahue, II sometimes
known as "Slip Green" deserves
special mention.
The line up was as follows:
Tammany-Mille, 3b; Sffreve, 2b;
Green, 1b; Bowman, ss; Weland, If;
Sorenson, C; Hutchinson, CT; Kemp,
rf; Armstrong, p.
Icemen-Dimeau If; Arnold, CT:
Sinclair, RI; p. I. Robinson, SIS;
Olds, 1b; Morris. 2b; Gillette, C;
S. NJ. Robinson, 3b; Lennon, p.
The orderly manner in which these
contests between local teams have
been conducted and the air of good
fellowship which seems to exist
among the players has excited much
favorable comment and already an
interest is being shown by men on
the street in an evident desire to
form a Twilight league, composed of
local teams representing different
firms and occupations. The league
to be SO called Twilight league from
will be played between o'clock and
dark.

ANY LEGISLATION
MAY Be TAKEN UP
CALL OF GOVERNOR HAY FOR
SPECIAL SESSION DOES NOT
SPECIFY BUSINESS TO BE CON-
SIDFRED.

Olympia, June Governor Hay s
call for an extra session of the legis-
lature June % opens the way to any
legislation. But it is understood here
that the governor will use all his in
! fluence to hold the legislature first
to action upon the report of the in
vestigation commission on Schively,
and the enactment of law provid-
| ing for rigid system of accounting
in the state Offices After the legis-
lators have disposed of the derelic-
tions of state officials they may bring
up any legislation they choose. and
| it will be up to them to adjourn
| when they get ready.
Governor Hay would not say today
whether he would bring up his propo-
sition to eliminate all the elective
state officials except governor and
| lieutenant governor and give the gov
ernor power to appoint his cabinet,
as the president does. 1t is inferred
from this that he may use that as a
trading basis, holding it till he finds
out how the legislators stand.
1t appears certain that the special
session will continue a couple weeks.
Some legislators will be anxious to
get through and return to their priv
ate interests, but the majority will
be willing to put in a month in the
capital city And the bill which the
taxpayers will have to face will prob
ably run to $4,000. AS the expense
Is going to be heavy anyway it is to
the interest of the taxpayers to have
desirable legislation considered.
Governor Hay does not believe any
effort will be made to repeal the
local option law, for the reason that
the saloon interests are too wise to
attempt such project. Sentiment is
strong in the state for option, and
if it were repealed the people would
be so aroused over it that prohibition
would be the result. Talk of repeal
of the criminal code is not taken
seriously. The code is regarded as
an improvement by lawyers of the
! state. and while it may be amended
in some minor respects there will be
no such attack upon it as is talked of.
