this announcement which, to the SUI
preme delight of the small boy every
spring follows close upon the heels or
the pussy willow. This year, however,
circus day means much to Walla Waiia
1t means more than pink lemonade,
more than elephants and caInels, more
than daring feats in ring or on trapeeze,
it means another progressive step, 1t
means the passing of the shack of yes
terday and the building of a structure
of today. Norris & Rowe's big show
comes to Walla Walla this year under
the auspices of the local lodge of Elks
who expect in this wise to swell the
nucleus of a building fund begun sew
eral years ago until it is possible to be-
gin the erection of a handsome five
story temple that will stand as a last
ing memorial to the energy and enter
prising spirit of the lodgemen and put
Walla Walla one step nearer the goal
of great city. Here again We have a
chance to lend assistance to a worthy
cause and this years circus crowd
should be a record breaker.

Museum of Art Horrors.

BERLIN, May 5.-The directors OF
the Museum of Industrial Art at Stuff
CART nave had the happy thought of an
exhibition of gross errors in artistic
taste (Geschmacksverirrun In
stead of teaching by examples of what
to initiate, the idea is to show the pup
lie and art students what to avoid.
With German thoroughness, cata-
logue of this display of artistic alb
CREATIONS has been drawn up by Pro-
lessor Pagaurek who Classics the
objects shown as coming under the
heads of wrong uses Of material, fan
tastic treatment, freaks of decoration.
and so forth AS the show is one of
industrial art, it contains only mon
strosities produced by unregulated
German fancy, working in that sphere.
Knock kneed tables and all kinds of
misapplied taste in furniture, china
and ornaments, with wild extravagan-
ces in decoration, are displayed as
horrible warnings The whole is a
kind of Dantean circle about which
the student and the apprentice are led
in order to frighten them into the
paths of artistic righteousness.

BUSINESS AND PLEASURE.

There are some busy days looming
ahead of Walla Walla and an excellent
chance for every citizen to prove that
he holds the welfare of the city second
only to his personal affairs. The calen-
Oar for the remaining days of this week
is full with events that demand the
attention and are worthy of the sup
port of every person in the city.
The Associated Women's clubs of the
city will start the ball rolling tonight
with an old song concert, the object of
which is to provide the Walla Walla
concert band with new uniforms. One
of the best advertisements possible for
q city is well equipped and well train
ed band and Walla Walla has an or
Eanization now of which it may we'll be
proud. But can we afford to send them
10 Seattle this summer to lead the pro-
Cession Walla Walla day and clothe
them in busters and picnic caps, or put
them at the head of the marching dele
cation in Spokane at the Irrigation
Congress, in the stripes, checks and
plaids of everyday wearing apparel?
An ununiformed band is like an un-
paved city or Il kerosene lighted store.
Let's fit them out spick and span in
nifty new uniforms and start tonight
ry paying for admission to the concert
even if attendance is impossible.
Tomorrow and Friday hundreds Of
student athletes from the academies of
Washington, Oregon and Idaho will be
the guests of Whitman college in the
annual Tri-State Track Meet and dec
lamatiOn contest The Commercial
club has recognized the Importance of
the occasion and is heartily cooperat-
ing with the college officials in making
the undertaking an unqualified success.
The business houses have willingly con-
scented to close their stores Friday af-
ternoon that they themselves and their
employees might attend the events on

BIOGRAPHICAL CALENDAR

JACOB A. RIlS.
MAY 5
Jacob Hays.

Jacob Hays, a once famous high
constable of New York city, was born
in Westchester. county, N. Y, May 5,
1772 This renowned policeman was
not of Irish extraction, but of Hebrew
parentage. After receiving a common
school education, he moved to New
York city. Mayor Edward Livingston
appointed him head of the constabu-
latOry of the city, in 1910. He retained
the office for nearly half a century,
during which he eXerted an influence
and control over the criminal classes
like that exercised by Townsend, the
celebrated Bow street officer, of Lon
don. Hays was a short, lean, wiry man
of answering honesty, untiring ener-
gy and indomitable courage. He has
been described as the most remark
able man within his sphere of activity
that New York city-eve had, and the
criminal classes both feared and re-
spected "Old Hays" as he was called.
For 40 years he was a terror to evil
doors, and his fame as thief taker
spread throughout the union, and 1t
was a common custom of the day to
threaten children with mis- attentions.

TAKING THE COB OUT OF CORN.

The latest product of the scientific
agriculture is cobless corn. A
farmer of Illinois under the patronage
of the agriculture college of that state
is trying to take the cob out of the
corn and make the kernels grow IN
a close head like those of wheat.
Apparently this is the highest point
reached in the evolution of grain. The
finer grains fit for bread grow in this
head, with the kernels clinging to the
stalk. Coarser grains fit only for the
use of cattle grow in a more stray
Cling head with a long stem between
the grains and the stalk. By analogy
Indian corn would be in a lower state
of development, since the grains are
crowded together on a hard woody
cylinder. unfit for food, which grows
directly out of the stalk in an oblong
sheath or husk.
Historically wheat has. been cultf-
waited as many thousands of years as
Indian corn has been cultivated hum
dreds. 1t is reasonable to expect,
therefore, that the latter is susceptible
Of much higher development Prob
ably civilized farming has improved
the kernel vastly since the Pilgrims
landed in New England and the Cav
alters in Virginia.
The Illinois farmer is more am
bilious He has produced few grains
of corn without cob. whose kernels
grow something like those of oats each
in it's own husk at the end of stem.
He is now at work getting rid OF
the stem by careful selection of kern
els to plant so as to make his new
corn grow more like wheat or rye.
We do not know what the effect of
this change will be on the Indian corn
plant. which is one of the most beau
tiful in cultivation. 1t is we'll known
that the corn ovaries are fertillzed
from another flower on the same stalk.
If this can be imagined as an earlier
form of the wheat plant, perhaps the
corn of future ages will bear single
punches Of complete flowers, after
wards heads of grain near the top OF
huge stalk resembling that of millet

faithful service, he was allowed TO
