The Mooses Had a Time.

AT the regular meeting of the Dal-
las Moose Club last Thursday night
after the session was over, the boys
pulled off a boxing match that af-
forded much amusement. They first
tried to secure the local prize fight
ers, but as one was little disfgured
and the other was hoarse from apollo
gizing, they secured other talent to
help out.
The first bout was between that
well known boxer, Frank Tucker of
Seattle and Harry Coulson Of Dallas.
After hard three round battle the
referee decided the bout draw.
The next was a whirlwind affair,
lots of wind was needed, they went
at it hammer and tong fashion and
after two rounds were boxed, that
also was declared a draw. The par
ticipants in the second affair was
Tom Tommonson and Alt Blake,
both of Dallas.

The Hop Situation.

The hop market is N. G. at pres
ent and the Salem Statesman in its
Sunday issue says:
The hop situation is getting worse
and worse from the standpoint of
those who still have unsold hops on
their hands. As low as II cents was
reported to have been paid for sew
eral lots yesterday. Among these
was one lot of 113 and another of
lis bales. Three sales, amounting in
the aggregate to 179 bales, were re-
ported at 10 cents. However, these
were choice lots. The prediction
made some time ago that the price
would go as low as 15 cents seems
more plausible than ever and it is
considered that lit will be realized
now within few days.

Last Saturday Nights Fire.

During the absence of the family
of |. H. Hamlin who resides at the
corner of 11th and Academy Sts.,
a lamp exploded that was left burn
ing and was discovered by the neigh
bors, who after some effort extin-
guished the flames. A wrong direc-
ton was given the fire department
and it was some time before they
could get the right location.
This fire proves that Dallas needs
a more modern fire apparatus and it
is hoped that our city dads will take
steps to help the fire laddies by fur
nishing them with an automobile 10
be used to haul the hose cart. 1t is
a hard task to pull the hose cart and
some other method than the one used
should be furnished and steps should
be taken 70 do away with the old
antiquated method now in use.

DEAD
Breathes there a man with soul so
dead

Breathes there man with soul sc
dead
Who never to himself hath said:
"My trade of late is getting bad,
I'll try another eight inch ad. :"
If such there be, go mark him well
For him no bank account shall swell
No angels watch the golden stair,
To welcome home the millionaire.
The man who never asks for trade,
By local line of ad. displayed,
Cares more for rest than worldly gain,
And patronage but gives him pain.
Tread lightly, friends; let no rude
sound
Disturb his solitude profound.
Here let him live in calm repose,
Unsought except by men he owes,
And when he dies, go plant him deep,
That naught may break his dreamless
sleep;
Where no rude clamor may dispel
The quiet that he loves so well.
And when the world may know its
loss,
Place on his grave wreath of moss,
And on stone above, "Here lies
A chump who wouldn' It advertise"

They Will Joke.

Nothing like being popular One
of J. Bagley's numerous friends who
was in Dallas last week attending
court sprung a good one on him by
informing the news gatherer, that he
was in the city to take out his final
papers so he could vote this fall
as Mr.. Bagley has lived all his life
in Polk County, his friends are hav-
ing some sport with him by calling
him an alien. Jasper's friends in
the Lewsville neighborhood are lay
ing low and hiding out as they have
found out that some one is looking
for the practical joker with a stuffed
club.

The Salem Motorcycle Club made
a run to Dallas Sunday and reports
the roads in fine shape. The trip was
made in 40 minutes, which is con-

only sloppy roads were found at the
Salem end. Not an automobile was
encountered on the entire trip. Those

Sunday was a red letter day in the
history of the Christian Church of
Monmouth, the occasion being the
dedication of a $500 church edi-
fee. All the other churches assisted
to swell the audience and take part
in the interesting services. The dcd-
icatory services were in charge Of
the regular pastor, Rev. Herbert
+. Jones. At the 3 O'Clock service,
Rev. Crow of the Independence
Christian Church and his choir as
sisted. A great deal Of credit must
be given to the former pastor, Rev.
j. M. Orrock who has a charge now
at Centralia, Washington, for the
erection of this magnificent house Of
worship, as well as to the present
pastor for putting on the finishing
touches. There is seldom a dedica-
tion but what asks for funds to pay
of the indebtedness but this church
made a record as all funds were pro-
vided for and it is free from debt.

ton program, want of space prevents
