THE TITANIC.

One Monday morning about one O.
clock,
The great Titanic began to reel anG
rock;
The people began to scream and Cry,
Saying, sob, Lord, we have to die.
It was sad when the great ship wen
down.
Chorus:
It was sad when the great ship wen
down,
1t was sad when the great ship wen
down,
Husbands and wives and children los
their lives,
It was sad when the great ship went
down.
When that ship left England it wa:
bound for this shore,
The rich had declared they'd not ride
with the poor,
So they put the poor below and they
were first that had to go,
1t was sad when the great ship went
down.
When they were building they said
what they would do,
lDey WOulu Dullu sup Uuo WdtoI
couldn't break through.
God with powerful hand showed the
world it couldn't stand,
1t was sad when the great ship went
down.
When Paul was out sailing and men all
around
God, who sits in Heaven, said not a
man should drown
IF You will trust me l will save you
all today.
1t was sad when the great ship went
down,
Those people on the sea long ways
from home,
With friends all around didn't know
their time had come.
But death came riding and sixteen
hundred had to die,
1t was sad when the great ship when
down.
You know it must have been awful,
those people on the sea.
They say that they were singing,
NEARER My God, to Thee. -
But they were homeward bound, six
teen hundred, they were drowned,
1t was sad when the great ship went
down

5pRISCILLA' TELLS A
PRETTY OLD TALE

/ while the music is brilliant, catchy
and harmonious.
The action of the opera is entirely
along legitimate dramatic lines and
all horseplay has been eliminated from
it's scenes.
The mounting at the university will
be remarkable and has been furnished
at great expense. Special scenery and
costumes have been provided for the
opera and it is to be hoped that the
people Of Moscow will respond gem
erously in their attendance upon the
occasion of the formal opening of the
new auditorium, that the expense of
the production may be met.
There is no doubt but that the aud
itorium will be completed by Satur-
day evening.
Seats may be had at the Bursars
office, or at the Corner Drugs tore.

it. The concert has for a strong

said Justice Ailshie of the sap .eine

Ellis Orcutt Laid to Rest.

The funeral services for the late
Ellis Orcutt were held this morning
at 10 o'clock from the Christian
church, the Rev. E. R. Black officiat-
ing.
Mr.. and Mrs. Dixon sang beautiful
duets. The floral contributions as
tributes from the many friends were
exceptionally beautiful. Many Elks
attended and four from their number
were pail bearers.
Little Ellis was born in Troy near
ly ten years ago, and was beloved by
all who knew him, for his manly ways
and keen appreciation for the finer
points of everything in which he was
interested. At school he was gen
eral favorite and a leader in his
classes.
The interment was made in the
Moscow cemetery.

The story of the opera PRISCILLA
which is to be produced on Saturday
evening at the new auditorium at the
university is taken from the poem
"The Courtship of Miles Standlsh' by
Longfellow. This story is too we'll
known to everybody, whether young
or old. to need repeating here. 1t is
sufficient to say that the plot is found
ed upon the slight tradition which mas
come down from the days of the Ply
mouth settlement and depicts a sue
cession of scenes in those early Pill
grim times.
The story of the opera is one OF gen
nine human interest and never fails
to please. There are no imaginative
gods, such as in the Wagnerian music
dramas, nor is the story dated SO
early in history that one has to stretch
his imagination very far to under
stand the romantic Slde ol lie ol'eid.
All of the principals have genuine red
blood in their veins.
Those familiar with the several 9TH
er operas which have been founded up
on this historic tradition declare that
no other composer has caught the at
mosphere and spirit of the times SO
we'll as it is revealed in Priscilla"

narrative. The lines are, very bright

Relatives today permitted Albin
Polaceks, an art student of Phila-
delphia to take death mask of the
great financier. Polaceks is studying
in the American academy here and
Mr. Morgan had paid his tuition.
1t was announced this afternoon
that Herbert Satterlee, son-in-law,
was trying to arrange for a special
train to Cherbourg, France, and if this
is obtained the body will be taken to
America on steamer leaving Cher
bOurg tomorrow, which will be delayed
few hours for the arrival of the Nor
gan party.
If this plan is carried out there
will be brief funeral service at the
Grand Hotel tonight
Scores of diplomats, italian officials,
and tourists viewed the body today
Pope Plus, the king of Italy, En-
peror William, President Poincare
and other rulers have sent messages
of sympathy to the Morgan family.

MORGAN'S BODY LIES
IN STATE; MANY MOURN

ROME, April 1.-The body of ]. Pier
pont Morgan was embalmed today and
now lies in the royal suite of the
Grand Hotel where it will remain un-
til arrangements are made to convey
it to America.
Definite arrangements for the re-
moval of the body are delayed pending
wireless message from William
Hamilton, a son-in-law who Is enroute
to Rome aboard the Adriatic.
Florists shops here are depleted by
the number of orders from relatives,
diplomats and tourists, who flooded
the hotel with flowers.
Morgan had planned to start today

or and his remarks, while brief were
of great interest. After poking a lit
tie fun at the present condition of
Moscow's streets he congratulated the
city upon the progress it had made
and the contemplated street and 9TH
er improvements. He was emphatic in
upholding the integrity of the univer-
sity in it's various departments for the
good of the school and of the state
as we'll.
After the luncheon Judge Ailshie
was taken to the university where he
spoke to the student body on Citizen
ship" urging high ideals in their work
in school and in their after lives.
Again at the university he expressed
his qualification that the various col
leges and schools were maintained in
one compact greater educational body.

Moscow's schools safely passed a
crisis yesterday when by vote OF
476 to 165 against, the taxpayers and
heads of families voted to issue $4,000
in bonds for the purpose of paying for
the completed high school.
Had the bond issue not carried the
schools would have been forced to
close down for the rest of the year,
and 1t is unlikely that next year would
have seen them up to their usual
standard. The schools would nave
probably been involved in suits over
the teaching contracts and a consld7
cradle muddle would have resulted,
The $65,OOO bond appropriation had
not been sufficient to finish the high
school. The board feeling that it was
better to have it completed and that

Decision is Unanimous That City Can

Start April Is.

firming of this leaves the way quite
clear to go ahead with the paving
without fear of attack upon any OF
those points.
1t had been the intention Of the
Bird Mendenhall company, the sue
cessful contractors, to start work at
once upon the receipt of the decision,
and they have been wired of the
courts unanimous opinion. AS the
result some of the officials are ex-
pected upon the ground within few
days and if the weather will permit
work will be commenced about the
18th of this month.
The decision is a great victory for
the forces behind the Greater Mos
COW" movement, particularly the
iliary and the city administration, who
had been foremost in working for
pavement, just as a reversal of Judge
Steele would have been a great blow
to the efforts to raise this city above
the dignity of a mud hole, since it
might Have necessitated a second paw
ing campaign like that of last year.
The city was represented before
the supreme court by City Attorney
G. G. Rickett, and the Bird-Menden-
hall company by VIM M. Morgan of

There is no stopping Moscow's paw
ing!
BY unanimous decision of the su-
preme court of the state of Idaho
Judge Steele's action in denying the
plaintiff, Mrs. Anna Clyde of Pullman,
an injunction restraining the paving
of the city and dismissing the case
was affirmed The syllabus has not
yet been published but the character
of the decision was made known on
the arrival of Judge Ailshie in Mos
COW at 1890 this afternoon.
The decision of the supreme court
will, it would seem, remove the last
obstacle to Moscow's progress in
street Improvement. The complaint
of Mrs. Clyde as originally filed at
tackled the validity of the action OF
the city council in letting the paving
contract on what would appear to be
almost every ground imaginable, and
the result in all likelihood will be to
put a quietus upon the objections to
this city's going ahead.
Judge Steele's decision which was
upheld by the supreme court covered
the 1O1 contentious of the plaintiff and
in dismissing the case determined that
no cause of action lay in any OF the
allegations put forth by Mrs. Clyde's
attorneys, Forney & Moore. The af-
