TODAY's BIRTHDAY SKETCH

Nine. Judith Gautfer, one of the
most famous women in the French
literary world-or. indeed, in the
whole world of letters, has a birthday
today. She has recently been enroll
ed among that body of ''the To- i'm
mortals in the French academy Nine.
Gautier is the first woman in the
academic Boncourt founded by two
brothers, who left their fortune to the
society. A prize of s400, which is
called Prix Gonvcourt is awarded ev-
cry year by the academy. The "old
fashioned academy" consists of 40
immortals. The new academy, with
its 10, claims ts have broader ideas
than that of the old, but they have
hitherto consistently refused to have
a member of the weaker sex enrolled
with them. Now, however, Nine.
Gautier has been elected by vote of
seven to two. Nine. Gautier is the
daughter of the celebrated Theopile
Gautier, a contemporary of Victor
Hugo, and seems to have inherited
most of her fathers talent. She be-
gan to show traces of unusual ability
when she was II years old. 1t was
then that she published her first nov
ell, lie Livre De Jade" under the
pseudonym of Judith Winter. Shortly
afterward she married Catulle Men,
des, celebrated poet. The marriage
was not happy and she soon left her
husband, continuing her literary work
under her maiden name. Oriental
things have always had great fasci-
nation for her. so much so that while
still in her teens she learned Sanskrit
and Chinese. Most Of her works are
impregnated with an oriental atmos-
phere which some persons find adds
to the charm Of her books, while 9TH
ers are not quite so enthusiastic about
It.

THE CAUSE OF VICE,

In Chicago a commission has been
Investigating the cause of vice and in
tEeir report they charge poverty with
being chiefly to blame. But perhaps
they confined their investibations
mostly to the poorer classes. Had they
Investigated wealthy circles they would
have found vice there also. The vices
Of the rich are not due to poverty but
to excessive luxury. Provide for
greater equality as to opportunities
and you will work for the lessening
of vice among the poor and also am
ong the rich. Poverty and excessive
luxury go hand in hand. They are
the twin products of an economic sys-
tenn that has not yet been perfected.
The true remedy for vice lies in ap-
plying the square deal as closely as
possible with the view to giving all an
equal right to life, liberty and the
pursuit of happiness"

A SPLENDID OUTLOOK.

Local people who are asked as to
the business outlook in Pendleton
point to the fact that there is over a
million dollars worth of building and
construction work in sight at this
time. That fact alone gives good tes-
timony to the effect that all is we'll
for the immediate future at least.
Nor is the claim any exaggeration.
The establishment of the branch in
sane hospital alone means the expen-
diture of 100000. The new high
school and the completion of the Lin
coin school takes 100000 more and
that bond issue is already voted. The
federal building will cost slightly
over 100000. The mountain water
system will cost 100000, the new
Catholic church, the Main street
bridge, the Roundup work and sewer
extensions make over 100000 more,
thus running the total sum past the
million dollar mark.
Another satisfactory feature of the
situation is the fact that these i'm
provements will mean permanent bus
iness to the city. From the big force
of attendants and other employees at
the branch asylum there will be a
heavy volume of business for the city.
The new high school will bring ad-
ditional families, to the city for school
purposes and the establishment of a
mountain water supply will likewise
tend to bring new residents. People
who are looking for a town in which
to reside will feel kindly disposed
towards Pendleton because they will
know they can secure good water
here and because they will be assured
of adequate school facilities.
If the people adopt the character
amendment in reference to street
work there will also be a vast amount
of street improving done in the next
few years. The amendment proposed
iOOh5 Allpit NlldilA NIlAllS NlS' ~ plO-
noting improvements If the char
ter amendment is adopted street work
may be carried on upon a large scale
and yet the city treasury will not be
affected At the present time the city
must pay for the improvement of the
street intersections and this policy g
wrong in that it keeps the city penni-
less if much work is done. The char
ter change is needed because more
street work is needed.
The outlook for Pendleton is really
brighter than it has been in many
years. The city has entered upon an
era OF improvement and the work that
Is on or IS in prospect cannot help
resulting in the substantial advance
ment Of the city.

WHEN POOR LO CAN'T WIN.

The late Green McCurtain, chief of
the Choctaws. had a high opinion of
the business astuteness of white men.
"No Indian can bet the better of a
paleface," Chief McCurtain said to a
Guthrie reporter during the recent
oklahoma investigation. "and when
two palefaces get bargaining togeth-
er, then it is just like cutting dia-
monds with diamonds.

holds in the estimation of the Ameri-
can people.
In discussing Roosevelt the Port
land oregonian had an extended edi-
tcrial sunday and the following is an
interesting extract therefrom;
Perhaps the most definite thing
one can say of Roosevelt is that he
has altered our moral point of view.
The country does not look at men or
deeds in the same liglx as it did before
he began to preach and eXhort. 1t
does not measure public acts by the
same standards nor have we the same
notions of right and wrong that we
had formerly. 1t is not so very many
years since there were many Lorimers
among our officials and nobody
thought them particularly black. They
were supposed to be a necessary prod
uct of democratic institutions. Now
Lorimer, in spite Of his whitewash,
looks bedraggled and during his term
IN the Senate he will sit under a de-
pressing stigma. Roosevelt has ma lie
that change in our public life. He did
not make it merely by refusing to dine
with Lorimer, but by the powerful
trend of all he is and all he does.
Roosevelt has discovered no new
moral truth but he has revived the
old with splendid vigor. His speeches
are along series of commonplace ap-
horlsms from beginning to end, but
the aphorisms have caught fire from
tremendous personality and they
kindled the Nation. No man can lay
hold of any wave in the ocean ana
say, This is the tide The tide is cos
mic. 1t belongs to the universe.
Roosevelt impresses us in the same
way. He is not an impulse but a
tendency. He is animated, not so much
by an individual spirit, as by the
spirit of the age. He is the Zitgeis,
in concrete form. Men follow Roose-
Welt because they preceive in him all
that looks forward and upward in
their own souls. His spirit leads AM
erica because he is the most typical
OF Americans"
This very feature of the coloners
character is illustrated by the race
suicide incident at the banquet in
Portland. Though a guest the colonel
rebuked an entertainer for what he
classed as jest at motherhood. In
doing so he spoke so manfully, so
truthfully and so we'll that the 200
banquetters arose and shouted their
approval. They saw his point of view
and appreciated it. To those present
the fiery remarks of the ex-president
constituted no breach of etiquet They
admired him for speaking forth in de-
fiance of conventionalism. They
would have lost respect for him had
he remained silent under the circum-
stances.
Roosevelt's strength lies more than
anything else in the wholesomeness
of his life and teachings.

NOT LICKED and
TWO EYES SHUT

Philadelphia, March 15.--Anthony j.
Drexel Biddle, the young millionaire
who was so numerically handled by
'Jawn" O'Brien last Wednesday, from
his bed today, where he has been since
the afternoon of the three-round bat
tie, issued a statement in which he
declares "O'Brien did not lick me. I
stood up and fought him back all the
time
Following the battle Biddle was
forced to call in Dr. Charles S. Turn
bull, an oculist who worked over him
for hours before he would concede
that he might save the sight of the
eye which was closed by the blows
of O'Brien. Biddle declares he learned
new trick during the three rounds
he received his Matchmaking. Here
after when he wishes to punish an OPP
ponent he will use the heel of the
glove. That is the instrument with
which OBrien changed the map or
"Tony's" features.

COACH KALNBACR
HAS RESIGNED
MAN WHO FOR PAST FOUR YEARS
HAS TURNED OUT CHAMPION
SHIP TEAMS FROM FARGO HIGH
TO QUIT THE scHooL-ALso
MATHEMATICS TEACHER.

Prof. J. e. Kalmbach, assistant
principal, teacher of mathematics, and
coach of all athletics at the Fargo
high school has handed in his resigna-
ton, and much to the sorrow of stu
dents and local admirers will not be
seen on the gridiron or at the high
school next fall
Coach Kalmbach came to the Fargo
high school four years ago and from
the first has been a faithful worker
for the school. Mr.. Kalmbach is the
best instructor of mathematics the
school ever had. and as a coach it
would be an injustice to him to com
pare him with any previous coaches.
He is Michigan man, having
graduated from the kalamazoo col
lege and Chicago university, with high
honors. While at Kalamazoo he in
dulged in all the out Of doors sports
being one of the star tackles in the
state, of Michigan.
When Coach Kalmbach arrived at
the Fargo high school in 1907, the
outlook for a winning football team
was anything but encouraging. Setting

In 1908 the high school clinched the
championship by defeating Minot 12
to 0. and every one remembers the
team of 1909, which so completely ran
over Grand Forks in two games and
defeated the fast st. Paul team 90
to 5. The team of last season made
a great record considering their weight
and experience. When the season
opened in 1910 Coach Kalmbach had
three men back Of the previous year,
but by hard work he turned out a
team that did not meet defeat against
a North Dakota team and that put UP
great fight against the champions
of Minnesota.
1t was impossible to have bas-

year Mr.. Kalmbach arrived, so only
few games were played, all of which
were won, but one In 1908 Fargo was
defeated by Valley City in a hard
