~ EPTEMBER is a medium weight,
low pressure month which begins at
- the end OF the electric fan season
and ends at the beginning of the thick
underwear sOlstice. 1t was named by
the Romans who used it as the seventh
month OF the calendar, but who after
wards enlarged the year, owing to the
growth of business and pushed it on to
ninth place where it has served with
marked success ever since Augustus
Caesar was a senior in college.
September is the first month of au-
tumn and is regarded with affection by
all people who haven't been able to
spend the summer at the seashore. To
these it comes as great relief, but to
the man who has concealed his family
in a summer resort for three months it
consists mostly of overdue bills and
frantic hunt for a new cook.
In September colleges begin to become
feverish again and violate the noise
regulations by manufacturing freshmen
without mufflers in huge quantities. In
September also the football candidate
dons a leather soup kettle and a rubber
fender for. his nose and begins to insert
himself into the thorax of the enemy at
the rate of five yards per Insertion, next
to pure reading matter.
In September apples, grapes and water
melons ripen in the temperate zones and
wave of crime spreads over the land
extending from 9 p. m. until early morn
ing. July is the most fatal month for
dogs, but September is hardest on their
digestions. Hundreds of farmer dogs

PROF. ". c. BEACH
DELIGHTS AUDIENCE
Addresses Twentieth Century Club
and the People of Pullman on
Social Fatalism"

The Twentieth Century Club had
its best meeting of the college year
Saturday evening when Professor w.
Il. Beach of the University OF Wash
ington addressed large audience on
the subject, Social Fatalism."
Many friends of Mr.. Beach, who
for : years was Il faculty member of
this institution, came expecting
something of much interest and edu-
cational value and were not disap-
pointed in the least The majority of
the audience, having heard Professor
Beach before, listened with the ex-
pectant air that never fails to bring
forth the best in any speaker.
Professor Beach got the audience
in a good humor at once by relating
an incident connected with a former
lecture on the same subject when the
gentleman making the Introductory
remarks announced the subject as
Fatal Socialism" The central
thought of the lecture seemed to be
that belief in social fatalism" had
greatly retarded social progress. but
that this belief in fate was being
driven out by concerted social action.
Social fatalism" is the belief that
all things are due to fate, that dis
ease, sickness, accidents, all are coz
trolled by fate and can not be made
subject to the control of man The
people of the middle ages were the
strongest believers in fate. Most
every power or natural force was be-
yond the control of man, in their
opinion. The speaker showed that
belief in fate decreased with in
creased knowledge and education.
He pictured the conditions of super
stition, belief in fate, and ignorance
as fog settling down over every
thing and bringing with it an air Of
mystery. Increased knowledge
drives away the superstition and be-
lief in fate as the sun drives away
the fog and thus causes things to
stand out in their true light.
Professor Beach showed how in
diyduaI attacks on social problems
had brought on defeat and belief in
fatalism. Many men have been
aroused TO social duty and have at
tackled big problems single handed
with a consequent defeat that has
thrown them back upon themselves
and into a belief that these things
were fated and could be controlled by
no man Experience has shown that
this is a world that can not be al
tered Dy individualism
Concerted social action, according
to the speaker. is giving us a glimpse
OF the control that society NAV have
over these occurrences supposed to
be fated. Industrial accidents. war
poverty. crime, disease and similar
problems no longer seem inevitable
We can see how, in the future, they
may be brought entirely under the
control OF combined social action.

longing to 7. II. Ellis and children
of near Oakesdale. The property,
which is valued at about $4,000,
was purchased at sheriff's sale by
j. NJ. Mohoney of Colfax, considera-
ton being in the neighborhood of
$1,000. 1t is stated by the defend
ants that six weeks before the ex-
piration of the time for redemption
of the property of the defendants,
Mr., Mohney agreed to assign his
sheriff's certificate of sale to rela-
tive of Defendant Ellis, to enable
Ellis to raise the money on the prop
erty to- redeem the place. 1t is fur
Their stated that one day prior to the
expiration of the time for redemp-
ton the defendant, Mohney, refused
to carry out his agreement
Mr.. Ellis borrowed the money
necessary to redeem the property and
rendered it to Mohney before the
time had expired for redemption, it
being alleged that Mohney refused
to accept it. The money was then
placed in the hands of the superior
court to be paid to Mohney. who
failed to call for it and attempted to
eject Ellis from the land Soon
afterward the case found its way to
the superior court, d. c. Dow APP
pearing for the minor heirs and one
adult heir of Defendant Ellis de-
ceased wife, and u. L. Ettinger ap-
pearing for Ellis, while J. N. Pick
rell represented Mr. Mohney. The
case was tried before Judge Miller
of Dayton. Judge NeilI being dis
qualified, and was decided in favor
of Ellis and his heirs 1t was APP
pealed to the supreme court and will
be tried before that body next week
While on the West Side Attorney
Dow will take several dispositions in
the case of E. NJ. Swagle, who disap-
peared in August, 1901. Swagle
carried life insurance to the extent
of $4,000, payable to T. b. Matlock
of this city, and Matlock is suing
the company for the amount of the
insurance.
