''THB LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF
A GREAT CITY-LIFE IN THE
UNDERWORLD"

'sTHB LIGHTS AND SHADOWS OF
A GREAT CITY-LIFE IN THE
UNDERWORLD"
Many OF our readers will remember
the lecture. Behind the Bars in Sing
Sing" presented by Mr.. Holland at
this theater about five months ago.
Mr.. Holland has Just returned from
New York City with his new lecture,
ana the management can assure its
patrons that It is equal, IL not su-
perior, to his former one.
The subject, one of the broadest
possible, is life today in the great
metropolis OF the western world. New
York, the empire city, where the
ceaseless tide Of life bears it's five mil
lea souls ever onward: some on its
crest to the goals of their desires
sthers In Its trough to oblivion.
All the features OF interest pertain
ing to life in this great city are fully
described and illustrated with beau
tifully hand colored views, many Of
which were taken by Mr.. Holland
himself for this purpose. The gigan.
tic skyscrapers, the subways and the
rapid transit tubes under the rivers
and many others too numerous to
mention.
hspecially interesting and dramatic
is the life in the underworld-the
haunts and habits of the human rede.
licts, the dregs of humanity with
whom nature has not dealt kindly.
Mr.. Holland. who perhaps knows his
native city as well as any one has
taken many midnight rambles among
the slums and has studied and become
intimate with many OF its habitues,
and faithfully reproduces features Of
Chinatown, its tong wars and its Sc
cret opium dens. the Black Hand So
ciety, the tenements. with their
swarms OF sweat shop workers; the
white slave traffic as carried on to-
day: the famous Bowery. and many of
the notorious crooks and panhandlers
who have furnished enough sensa-
tons to fill many volumes. Mr.. Hol-
land bears the endorsement of the fol-
lowing societies: The Florence Mis-
sion for Rescuing Fallen Birls; the
New York Society for Improving the
Condition OF the Poor; the Salvation
Army; the American Volunteers, the
Neighborhood workers.
The lecture. which Is instructive
and entertining, is great moral les
son, especially for young people, for
IL portrays life in the metropolis as Il
really is in plain language and with
out any gloss.
This feature is in addition to the
regular program. 4
To secure this extra attraction we
are at a heavy expense.
Admission will be 10c. 15c.

SAD MUSIC LURES os
COYOTES TO DEATH

Iii, Neb.-Having read of music
being used to induce cows to give lar
ger quantities of milk. and OF birds
being charmed by the playing Of
mouth organ, John Peterson, owner
OF a large ranch few miles south
Of this place. has tried the violin on
coyotes with great success.
Peterson and his son, Henry 16
years old took a repeating rifle, a
large supply of ammunition and a vi
olin and repaired to a shed near the
center of the 5000-acre sand hill
ranch.
Seating himself on a soap box in
the doorway of the stable, Peterson
began to play He ground out the
Devils Dream" FISHERS Horn
pipe" when the Flowers Bloom
Again." and a dozen other similar
airs. None of them brought the coy
otes.
Then he tried some Of his best rag
time" Hardly had he finished his
first selection when there came a yelp
from over a hill to the left, and a lit
tie later an answering yelp from the
right, followed by still others from
other directions. Coyotes commenced
to appear and in few minutes the
stable was encircled by the animals.
all sitting on their launches. bowling
in unison, and evidently trying to
keep time to the music.
Peterson sawed away on hs in
strument, but not a coyote would
come within range of Harry's rifle.
Then the fiddler decided to try some
thing more plaintive. Dropping rag
time he started to dish out Home,
Sweet Home" Hardly had he struck
a dozen notes when the circle Of coy
otes, like one coyote, rose to their
feet. They stopped bowling and COM
menced to walk toward the stable
where Peterson and his son were in
hiding.
By the time that Peterson had fin
shed Home, Sweet Home" the ami
mails were within quarter of mile.
He began to play 1--WE Shall Meet to
Miss Him" and where is My Wan
dering Boy Tonight" The effect was
like magic. The coyotes snuffed the
air, and, striking rapid gate, began
to close in on the stable.
Harry began to shoot with unerring
aim and an animal, sometimes two
or three of them. fell at each crack
of the rifle. Animal after animal went
down, but this did not seem to create
any CONSERVATION among the pack.
On they came, and from window to
window the boy went. shooting at the
advancing column, while his father
kept on playing dreamy melodies. The
lad fired until all his cartridges were
gone AS the last shot was fired the
father lad down his bow. Immedi-
ately the unwounded coyotes fled for
the hills.
An investigation showed that g5
animals had been killed, while nearly
half that number were wounded so
as to be easily put out of comm isslon

Pendleton Women Are Finding Relief
at Last


It does seem that women have
more than a fair share Of the aches
and pain that afflict humanity; they
must keep up must attend to duties
in spite Of constantly aching backs,
or headaches. dizzy spells bearing
down pains; they must stoop over,
when to stoop means torture. They
must walk and bend and work with
racking pains and many aches from
kidney Ills. Kidneys cause more suf-
fering than any other organ of the
body. Keep the kidneys well and
health is easily maintained. Read OF
a remedy for kidneys only that helps
and cures the kidneys and is endorsed
by people You know.
Mrs. Valentine Stroble, 1913 Johnson
street. Pendleton, Oregon, says:
"About two years ago I suffered from
kidney complaint and when a friend
advised me to try Doans Kidney Pills
I did so. This remedy disposed OF
severe backaches that had kept me

SMITH SAYS PROJECT
WILL Be EXTENDED
COST OF IRRIGATION WILL
NOT nXCRHD see PER ACRE
Local Physician Tells Portland Paper
OF Possibility OF Umatilla Extonsio.
Biggest Thing In Oregon, he Says.

The Umatilla irrigation project
the cost should not be greater thaa
$3.50 an acre. 1t will be shown that
the cost OF irrigation will not be more
than see per acre. It means that
$4,000 acres will be opened to culti-
vation. One acre will produce see
worth OF alfalfa yearly, meaning that
the value of that aero will be all the
way from $500 to $1,000"
This prediction was brought to
Portland today by DR.. c. J. Smith, one
OF Umatilla's leading citizens, says
yesterdays Portland Journal. He at
tended the banquet given last night
to the board of army engineers. Direc-
tor +. H. Newell. Brigadier General
Marshall. General Langfitt, Senator
Chamberlain and others were present
and made addresses. All. said DR..
Smith, we're convinced OF the feasibii-
ity of the project, after looking over
the ground. The result Is of the at
most consequence to the people of
Umatila county, since the development
OF land now arid is counted upon to
triple the county's weauth.
Developing the project" said DR..
Smith. lis the biggest thing In Ore
gon just now. 1t will be the biggest
contribution to Oregon's wealth. Una
tilla county is now assessed at s42,-
O06,e0e while we have but $4,000
population, thus making Umatiila
county second in wealth in the state.
This was brought about by such irri-
CATION as We have. Ten years ago we
were assessed at 100000 900 with 49,
600 population. Nearly all the irri-
cation has been done in 10 years.
Official Assurance Received.
Director Newell, General Marshall
and General Langfitt, by their state
ments left Us with the conviction tina,
the extension of the project at once
will be recommended. When Secre-
tary Ballinger was here he met COM
mittee of our citizens in conference.
He assured us that he would support
the extension Of the project.
