 Have we been thinking 50 much Of ~ha' we are going to do for ourselves tha, v" have perhaps overlooked some others IL IS possible that quite ur- intentionally We may have been do . ing just that. IT we have it IS onlto lnintentional.
 Most If us have made plans of one Kind CT another for the passing of tn" winter in pleasant and profita. ble manner.

No dances loom ri the orizons of some as beacon lights thro' the dark winter and no cheerful Christmas dinnr invitingly becons some on to the happy days of the holy season.
 In making our preparations do not let us forget in our own enjoyment thos" who through force of circum. stances cannot look forward to the cheerful cases in the long winter weeks. Those for whom the winter means but one long cheerless dreary round of days. Especially is 1t i'm portant that there be no little children who will miss the God given right of every child to season of happiness and good cheer at Christmas time.
 It is far more important that these little ones should be made happy by some extraordinary pleasure connect ed with the holy time of Christmss than it is for the srownups to pass n few pleasant hours.
 Of course all of the little ones whose homes are in the softer plnces will be provided for. Let us be sufe that some wee mite Is not overlooked ny tho good St. Nicholas and is sent t' bed on Christmas night without the longed for dinner and the looked Tor present.

ARGUMENTS ARE GIVEN

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service. ]
+ SAN FRANCISCO. Calf, Aug. 20
The Diggs case will be in the jury's
hands before nightfall. Attorney
Roche of the prosecution. resumed his
talk to the jury at 10 q. IN. today.
Attorney Sullivan will follow him,
also for the prosecution. They will be
answered by Attorneys Devlin and
Couhlan and probably by Attorney
Woodworth, for the defense.
The lawyers on either side will
divide two hours and twenty minutes
among themselves.
The defenses arguments concluded,
the prosecution will be given time for
a brief speech in rebuttal, and Judge
VanFleet will then deliver to the jury
his charge, already practically com
pleted. He announces that the at
torneys must finish the case and it
must go to the jury today. Attorney
Roche's speech has consisted Of saw
age arraignment of Maury Diggs, the
young man accused of having violat-
ed the Mann federal white slave law
by eloping with Miss Marsha Warning
ton, In company with Drew Caminetti
and Miss Lola Norris from Sacra-
mento, Calf, to Reno, Nevada. where
the United States authorities arrest
ed them. The gist of Diggs' testi-
imony, Roche asserted, was that he
and Caminetti intended to take the
two girls to Reno to escape prosecu-
tion and then return to the shelter OF
their own homes and to the wives and
children they had abandoned, leaving
the girls, the victims of their pas
sions, to go down into the depths. :
It is the concensus of opinion that
Diggs' brutal and indelicate story on
the witness stand injured his case.
The Jurors at any rate fairly gasped in
astonishment as he related the scene
in his own bedroom with Miss War
rington and told Of the latter's con-
temptuous remark concerning her
triumphs over the absent WIFE

PORTLAND. Ore, Aug. 20.-Twenty
thousand dollars reward was Offered
today for the robbers who held up an
Oregon-Washington railway train in
side the city limits last night.
The police said there were four OF
the outlaws, unless the man wounded
by one of the shots fired was also a
member of the gang. The wounded
man. who will probably die, professed
to be Joe Barron, tramp, and de
clared he was stealing a ride upon the
train. The police are inclined to think
however, that he was one of the rob.
bers and was shot by accident by one
of his comrades. Railroad officials said
the bandits secured only $S7 in cash
and $500 worth of jewellery belonging
to passengers in the observatory car.
