''Ben Hur" Coming
Here in February

What will be without doubt the big
gest event of the theatrical season is
the production of the play ben Hur,"
which is to be given in this city some
time next month, for two nights, pro-
badly February Is and Is. Information
that the play will be here is definite,
although the time has not been def
nitely settled; but in all probability
the above dates will be the ones de-
cided upon.
ben Hur' this year is said to be
the most lavish production of that
famous play that has ever been staged
That it is coming to Walla Walla is
good news to local theatregoers, for it
usually does not appear in cities this
size. And that it will appear here has
been made possible only by the grant
ing Of rates from the surrounding
towns of the valley by the railroad
companies. The play is to be here
two nights and crowded houses will in
all probability greet it both nights
The full stage equipment Of the ORR
g.nal production is carried and even
improved upon. The famous chariot
race scene is made very realistic and
the press throughout the west has been
enthusiastic in it's praise of the play.

one of which was as follows:
You should ask your city attorney
to prepare you statutes to be passed
concurrently at the next legislature,
both in the state of Oregon, and in the
state of Washington, authorizing cities
in each state to exercise such control
over any watershed reaching from one
state into another and authorizing
cities in either safe to acquire, under
the law of eminent domain, any prop
critics necessary for the protection and
conservation of their water supply"
Considerable discussion has been in
dulged in since the new gravity sys-
tenn was put in use regarding some
means whereby the watershed might
be kept free from contamination, and
the suggestion of Engineer Thomp-
son, made a year ago, seemed to have
received the most favorable consid-
Grafton. However. no action was taken
and now the water committee will be
rushed until the attorney complies and
the matter can be brought before the
legislatures of this state and Oregon.

BOOZE PARTIES
ARE THE THING
IN EUGENE

EUGENE, Jan. 20.-(Special Cores
pOndence.)-"Bo Booze parties are be-
coming the fad in this city among the
women, and the existing condition of
affairs is accredited to the recent re-
moval of the saloons resulting in
liquor being kept in the house instead
Of in the saloons. In an interview
given out yesterday, j. w. Hobbs, in
ternal revenue collector with head
quarters here, said:
The amount of liquor sold and 9th
erwise disposed of in Eugene would
surprise anyone if the figures were
given out. The great trouble is that
most of it is now kept in the homes
instead of in the saloons as formerly.
The result is that many women have
become drunkards on that account,
who otherwise would probably never
have thought Of taking drink
'The wholesale liquor houses are
sending out free books of instructions
Of how-tO make fancy drinks. and now
every afternoon many Of them gather
together and have what they call
booze parties 1 have seen many
women drunk in Eugene since prohibi-
ton went into effect. and before that I
never saw the condition of affairs.
''F'Ormerly places in Eugene where
liquor was disposed of had United
States licenses, and a large number
were issued. The local authorities
watched these places. with the result
that now there is not single United
States license in Eugene. Before, it
was out of our hands. but now we are
compelled to look after the interests of
the government, and now it is our af
fair entirely, and the local authorities
are not sorry. A few days ago we ar
rested five men for bOotlegging and
there are dozens more of them engaged
in the same business there all of the
time. In fact, the last session of the
court could not handle all the cases
for the illegal selling of liquor and an
other session had to be called in order
to dispose of them.

gene, but there is plenty of mighty
poor liquor disposed Of

Idaho Varsity
To Meet the "Y''

Playing it's second big game of the
year, the Y. M. c. A. basketball team
will meet the University of Idaho on
the 'sY" floor tomorrow night. The
Idaho team is a crack aggregation, and
the ''Y'' boys are not slow, so first
class game may be expected.
Idaho recently beat w. S. c. in a
close game but was defeated by Los
Angeles. w. S. c. beat Los Angeles,
however. Whitman was defeated by
Los Angeles and also by the ''Y' team,
that is all the dope obtainable on the
game at present and is too little to
venture any prediction upon. However
the association team, playing at home
slight advantage.
Idaho plays the old style Of short
pass game. which proved easy for the
''Y" team last Thursday night when
used by the local college. The Y. M
c. A. has an entirely different style OF
play, and while it does not look as
pretty to spectators, wins games.
Idaho comes down confident of tax
ing the game, also the one with Whit
man the next night. But the Local
teams are playing ball this year, and
the Muscovites will have to play the
game to win from either local five The
game with the ''Y' is in the Y. M. G.
A. gymnasium Thursday night. That
with the college in the Whitman gym
nasium on Friday night. Coach
Blanchard, of Whitman, will referee
