The French Celebrate Their Fourth.

PARIS, July 14.-Loyal Frenchmen
with republican blood in their veins
are today celebrating the glorious
fourteenth" the anniversary of the
fall of the Paris Bastile at the begin
ming of the French revolution, in 1888.
Paris, following the lead of New York
and other American cities, has largely
celebration safe and sane. Although
the clergy and such as dream of a res
toration of royalty frown upon the
celebration, it is going with swing
and dash that make today especially
festive in the French capital. The
great feature of the day is the mil
itary review at Long champs.

UNION, Ore, July 14-While hunt
ing cattle in the timber near here, w
j. Townsend, Harlan Stewart and
others found fine big bull in the
thick timber firmly wedged between
two trees, where the animal had evil
IDENTIFY been for week or ten days.
When approached from the front the
bull easily backed out of his trap,
having become SO poor from fasting
that escape by backing out was easy.
The animal had evidently been en-
deavoring to escape by going forward
but had given up hope.

IMPORTANT NOTICE.

The sNOtice to Property Own
ers" which appeared in yester-
days Star-MirrOr over the sigma
ture of Mayor Clarke, is most
timely. All property owners
should take pride in having their
places appear as well as pOssi-
BILE, not only on special occasions
such as the coming Chautauqua,
but at all times. To keep the
grass and weeds moved i'm the
parking adds much to the ap-
pearance of any home, besides
giving public evidence that the
occupant is Industrious and en-
terprising.
During the Chautauqua many
people will visit Moscow and to
have our streets in the residence
districts look as well as pOssi-
BILE will be one Of the best ad-
vertisements for our city. Paw
ing on our principal business
streets will have progressed far
enough by the 18th Of July so
that the business section of the
city will have an attractive ap-
pearance.
The Star Mirror sincerely
hopes that the mayors request
of property owners to show
proper civic pride will be gen.
eraly Obeyed, not only in the
parking, but on all occupied
property and vacant lots as well.
Let us present to the Chautauqua
visitors a clean and neat ap-
pearing city.-FrOm Star Mirror

CHAUTAUQUA NOTES

The Western Chautauqua opened al
Lodi June 16 with large audiences
splendid enthusiasm and everybody
on hand promptly.
| Twenty-four college boys are hav-
| ing the time of their lives learning to
be expert canvas men, ticket sellers,
ticket takers, etc.

Nebraska, after his lecture at their
|Chautauqua.
Julius Caesar Nayphe who is a hand
some Greek youth, has surprised and
delighted his Chautauqua audiences
with the breath of his knowledge of
world events and his masterful Eng
lish. Mr.. Nayphe is the sensation of
the Chautauqua season.
Carl Frederic Steckelberg, the noted
German violinist has aroused the
poets to action. The following is a
tribute of A. l.. Bixby:
I'm a lover of music, of harmony clear
For it drives all the darkness away,
And the songs that are sung and the
bands that l hear
Are the light and the life of the day
l have heard the pipe organ peal heavy
and loud
IL, ,,rl,t f,,l1
l have heard the great Sousa's grand
Eloquent crowd,
And their music was good for my
bones.
I have heard the piona when pounded
like sim
By the artists from over the sea,
But when Steckelberg plays on his old
violin,
That's the fullness of music for me.
No, my feelings 1 cannot describe if I
would
There is peace, there is rest, there is
joy:
I am full to the brim, and it does me
more good
Than a new pair of boots when a
boy.
In the sweep of the bow, in the rise
and the fall
Of the sweet, mellow tones that are
heard.
There is richness sublime, there is
soul in it all,
And my heart with it's beauty is
stirred
There is music to me in the tumult
and din
Of the earth, that is heard far and
wide,
But when Steckelberg plays on his
old violin,
Then l want all the rest to subside.

"The sanitary conditions and gen

Jay Woodwork, the newly appointed
health officer whose duty it is to en-
force the orders of the board of health,
will in a short time be as good as
those of any city in the, northwest" :"
He has completed his first tour
Of inspection throughout the

last summer were found in all sec
tions of the city. The health ordin-
ances had apparently been taken as
mere suggestions to be followed at the
discretion of property owners.
In the majority of instances they had
never received any consideration
whatever and but little effort had been
made to enforce them.
1.-The filthy conditions of many of
the alleys, streets and yards" said
Mr.. Woodworth," was due in large
part to the failure of city officials to
enforce existing ordinances and not
to the insufficiency of the ordinances
themselves" Mr. Woodwork is now
on his second inspection of the city
and is finding that in general the
people are gladly complying with his
previous orders. I'm several in

to what should be done or what
should not are wholly unavailing and

stringent measures to enforce :he or

has been made up to this time though
several others are likely to follow if
the wishes of the board of health are
not complied with Immediately.

Seven years out of a mans life
seems a long time to give to the
preparation of any one task, and In
these days when bluff so often takes
the place of careful preparation, it
is decidedly unusual to give so much
time to the study and preparation of
character impersonation. Mr.. Ben
jamin Chaplin, however, has given
seven years and more during the last
decade since his impersonation of
Abraham Lincoln has met with such
universal endorsement. Mr.. Chaplin
has continued to study the character
istic of this great man, and day by day
given twice exactly the same. Critics,
among them old personal friends of
President Lincoln, have pronounced
it perfect, but Mr.. Chaplin believes
that to accept anything as perfect
and to strive no more will inevitably
lead to deterioration. Every perform
ance that Mr.. Chaplin gives he strives
with all his might to make little
bit better than any previous perform
ance This is undoubtedly why he
is credited in the cast with the great
est success that has ever been ac-
hieved in this line. Mr.. Chaplin as
Abraham Lincoln" will appear on the
