A whirland just the other day,
Passed through our busy streets;
And in a very careless way
Gabbed both our local sheets.
1t carried them with flying speed,
Up, up, toward the sky;
The Beach Advance was in the lead,
You know the reason why.
The Chonicle did try her best,
To make this straight up trip,
But being new at such test,
Would lag and soar and dip.
1t seemed the Chronicle was bound
So many times to stop;
Apparently she'd gaze around,
And then would want to drop.
So many homes she seemed to know,
Across our Valley wide,
But still she said I'll upward go.
20 thu Beach Advances side.
At last, in spite of heavy load,
For she is always full,
She reached the end of whirlwind
road,
She then began to pull.
Began to pull the Beach Advance,
Pull as the sun pulls frost;
The Advance says there is no chance,
| see that we are lost.
The Chronicle in great surprise,
Turned to her sister friend,
And as advice got from the wise,
She says my hand I'll lend.
Now sister sheet just choose road,
That you would like to go;
Just hang to me you are no load,
And I'll find some l know.
So starting out across the space,
And downward on their way,
The Chronicle met face to face
With friends from everyway.
At last the breezes ceased to blow,
The sun was in the west;
They landed folded up just so,
But now then came the test.
They landed squarely in the yard.
Of farmer Jones you see;
The Advance says now this is hard,
l know they don't know me.
The Chronicle says never mind,
Just act the friendly part;
They'll take us in and you will find
Acquaintance we will start.
At last the papers, Jones he spied,
And in the house he went.
And with his family at his side
The evening it was spent.
Spent looking at the heavy one,
Because it seemed to be,
Variety of facts and fun,
And sentiment so free.
The funny section seemed to hit
The Jones all around;
Says Jones it's funny isn't it
That these two sheets l found.
We must subscribe says farmer
Jones,
A paper is what we need;
The Chronicle says Mrs. Jones,
Is best you must concede.
The Jones now a paper take,
1t came about by chance;
The Chronicle is wide awake
When out with the Advance.

Sunday Amusements

Rev. Paul Drake, pastor of the Bev-
erly (Mass.) Universalist church, where
the Taft family attended during the
summer, reiterated his plea for Sunday
baseball and other sports, saying:
AS for the minister, he does not
need to play Sunday baseball; he has
enough of it during the week, if he
chooses; but the laboring man has only
Sunday to himself. As conditions are,
he does no wrong, in my opinion, to
seek any legitimate mode of amuse-
ment and recreation on that day. If
the tendency today is for free Sunday,
where all can enjoy themselves in
their own way, why try to stem that
tendency"

Any one who swears," declared the
bishop of Carlisle, "manifests the beg
garliness of his vocabulary" The Con-
cord Patriot puts it in this fashion:
People swear because they do not
know the possibilities of plain English,
or have not the skill to manipulate it
so that it will yield the amount of fire
they want. You can do almost anything
with common words. No matter how
tame and lifeless they look standing in
stupid rows as if they didn't know
enough TO come in when it rained,
they can be made to dance like imps,
to frolic like fairies, to float angelwise
on light wings, to glow like fire spirits.
They can do things that make the or
binary bits of profanity look like feeble
scarecrows stiffened up with a fence
stake. The cure for profanity-reform-
ers and educators please make note
is merely wit enough to handle your
words so that swearing will seem like
baby talk in comparison"

SLOW PROGRESS IN
SCHIVELY TRIAL
SENATE SUSTAINS DEMURRER
TO ARTICLE 1.
SESSION ENDS SATURDAY
Tactics of Defendant Lead to Belief
That He Hopes to Get Case
Into Courts.

Olympia-In the days that have
passed of the first impeachment trial
ever held in this state not great
deal of Roadway has been made. Not
only is the procedure new to all
the members of the senate, neces-
sarily making discussions lengthy,
but j. H. Schively, the insurance
commissioner on trial has, through
his attorney, indicated what may be
either a desire to proceed with care
and caution, or a well-laid plan to
delay action as long as possible
Technical objections to the word
ing of the first article of the i'm
parchment charges against Schively
won over a majority of the senate,
and a demurrer to the article was
sustained by a vote of 81 to 8. With
Article /, ~ and possibly IA other
counts in the indictment are likely
to fail, as the wording in the others
is so similar to that of Article | that
there is good ground for believing
the senate will sustain demurrers to
them also.

To provide space for the National
Apple Show this year, the board of
trustees is planning the largest building
ever undertaken for a similar purpose.
A preliminary estimate of the space re-
quired for this years show is 100000
square feet, of which $4,000 square
feet will be required for exhibit space
and 10000 square feet for aisle room.
Such a gigantic enclosure is difficult
to comprehend, and it is impossible to
adequately show the great interior, be-
cause the carload lot exhibits, extend
ing from end to end through the cen
ter, divide the space and make it
appear four separate buildings. To
house the exhibits the trustees are
planning an enclosure ESQ feet wide
by 800 in length, adjoining the state
armory, and also number OF smaller
side buildings. 1t is proposed to erect
side walls ten feet in height surround
ing the enclosure, and over this TO
stretch gigantic circus tent roof, as
this is the only feasible method to
cover so large an area for a temporary
structure.
Last year $4,000 square feet of ex-
hibit space was required, and the esti-
mate Of $4,000 square feet for this
year is considered low. The floor will
be packed with alternate layers of tan
bark and fine gravel, giving a clean,
easy footing.

Messrs. Ritz & Demers are the pro-
prietors of the Gem theater in Wenat-
chez, and have arranged to give an en-
tertainment in the opera house here
every Sunday night until further notice.
The performance they gave at the opera
house last Sunday night was greatly
appreciated. The pictures were very
clear and distinct, and the subjects
good. The same company will show
again next Sunday night, and should
have a good house, as they present an
interesting two hours entertainment.
The price of admission is IS and Is
cents. 81

ManY Counts May Fail.

If action goes that far, one-half
of the 26 counts in the impeachment
articles will fail unless it shall be
ruled that the house has the right
to present amended articles covering
same charges and decides to do so.
The objection to Article / was
that it did not charge that Schively
did not make an examination of each
of the specified companies, or chat
the fees collected were in excess OF
his actual expenses if he did make
the examination.
1t is practically conceded that un-
der the rules of procedure in crimi-
nal courts an information not more
definite in its statement of facts
would not constitute cause of ac-
ton.
Sixty days is the maximum time
limit fixed on sessions of the legis-
lature, and the encouragement has
ruled that. every day of the interim
between special sessions must be
counted as a legislative day. Under
this ruling the legislative session
will expire Saturday at IL o'clock
midnight, unless sooner adjourned

SOME ATTRACTIONSAT THE OPERA HOUSE
Frank B. Tanning Company

The Frank B. Tanning Theatrical
Company opened a three-night engage
ment at the opera house last night to a
crowded house with The Man from
Mexico" This company has been
making the central Washington towns
for several years, always presenting
good, clean plays with a capable com
pany. That he is keeping up with his
reputation is the verdict of those who
last night. 80

Senate members contend that, al
though the legislative session must
end, the senate may continue to sit
as an Impeachment court. 1t Is sus-
pected by the impeachment manag-
ers that Schively's counsel intends
to attack this view, and 1t is suggest
ed that if the senate continues to
sit and finally impeaches the in
surance commissioner, he may try to
get the case into the supreme court
on the ground that the body that
impeached him had no jurisdiction.
The length of the senate impeach-
ment court is a subject for widely
differing conjectures. While the i'm
parchment managers are now pre-
dieting a closing of tne ease within
few days, Schively's attorney re-
fers to the length of the trial as a
matter not of days but of weeks.
In impeachment trials the verdict
of the senate is supreme. There is
no appeal permitted to the courts,
yet it is argued that the courts would
interfere to save mans Office for
him if a body improperly organized,
or which had lost its jurisdiction by
constitutional limitation, had at
tempted to GUST him.

Among the bills pending in the
house are the general game bill
which passed the senate in July; the
Campbell bill restoring the nomina-
ton of supreme judges to the direct
primary, which has a favorable COM
mittee report, and bill amending
the drainage district law; bill pro-
hibiting the sale of liquors on the
grounds of fairs receiving aid from
the state.
A bill has been introduced in the
house which removes the objectional
features of the present marriage law.
The bill provides that applicants for
a marriage license, instead of having
to present a physicians certificate
which testifies to their good health,
may make affidavit before the coun-
ty auditor, who issues marriages IL
censes, that they are free from GER
tain diseases specified in the law.
State Auditor Clausen states that
he will not allow the members OF
the legislature their pay until each
one makes affidavit to the payroll.
He also said that he would not issue
warrants for the mileage that the
members voted themselves for ex-
tending the second half of the spe-
cial session.

New Method Of Treating Dandruff

There has been a mistaken idea LOT
yea1s that frequent washing is pad
for the hair. The result is that nearly
everybody has more or less hair trou-
BILE. Practically everybody has dam
druff. and hundreds of others nave
hair that is too oily. or too dry, OF
hair that is faded and lifeless. Inc
result of all these troubles is failing
hair, and after that comes badness.
There are hundreds Of humbugs SOFA
under various names that are said 10
make beautiful hair, and that are
said to cure dandruff, but they are
worse than useless. Common soaps
and common shampoos leave the hair
in a worse condition than it was be-
fore. There is one preparation for the
hair that is 50 good that the IN
gradients of which it is made are
printed on the package. This is the
new scientific preparation called Brit
Head Wash, which is made of Re-
fined Soap, Cochin Cocoanut~ OH
White of Eggs, Glycerine and Sail
cvlic Acid. Any doctor will tell you
Il is a good formula 1t removes the
dirt, dandruff and microbes from the
hair and leaves the scalp soft and
moist and the hair fine and glossy.
Price, 80 cents a jar.

caused by overeating and drinking. The
