Public Library.

Monday evening at the home of Mrs.
W. M. Stewart, a meeting of great
interest was held, when a committee,
appointed by the Woman's Club, met
to consider the Public Library ques-
tlon. With Mrs. Stewart as chairman,
this committee, consisting of repre-
sentative citizens. formed plans for
immediate action. Several committees
were appointed to consider the expense
and possibility of establishing a public
library as soon as possible Since one
important feature is to know the feel
ing of the citizens, the task would be
easier if any persons would give their
approval or offer suggestions to Mrs.

II. R. H. S. WINS FROM
JEFFERSON H. s. 26-2O

A very interesting basket bali con
test took place at the Armory Friday
evening when the local high school lads
piled up the big end of score of rs to
20 against the Jefferson high school
team of Portland. The game was
hard fought from start to finish and
the score at the end of the first half
was Is to Is. The local lads showed
their usual ability to play hard game
in the second period, more than doubl-
ing their opponents points in the last
half.

and the work of Murphy in guarding
him was not to be complained Of. Shay

A little time to gather light

When Bismarck Went Dry.

Bismarck was not without supefsti-
tlon, and this always was noticeable
on the eve of the new year. From 8
o'clock that night until after midnight
he would not take water in any cir
cumstances from a glass. 1t was an
ancient tradition In the chancellor's
family that any one who set the legend
at defiance would pass through seri-
GUS illness. If another tradition is true
the observance of the family legend
must have been sore trouble to the
iron chancellor, for the Paris contem-
porary from which we take the fore
going says that Bismarck not only
loved war. but beer and wines, espe-
cially French wines. He was not
averse to punch and grog, but on New
Years eve grog was under the ban, for
