 Want License Transfer. Thomas G. Russell, Jr., is preparing to make application to the county commissioners for a transfer of the liquor license held by his father to himself.

 The new church replaces the frame house of worship on Main street, 5hich was totally destroyed by fire March 4, 1913. After that disaster, Rev. Father J. c. Brennan, the ener- getic pastor of the parish, at once shouldered the task of erecting new church. Work was begun late in the summer, and was pushed along so rapidly that the cornerstone was laid on November 2 Workmen are now engaged in installing pews, erecting 'altars, putting in chandeliers, laying concrete sidewalks and grading the property on which the building stands. This work will be completed within few days.
 The Exterior
 The structure is of a modern and attractive design, it is of brick con struction, with brownstone and Ken lucky lime tri1nmings The roof is of red Spanish tile, as are the attractive porticos over the three heavy double doors of oak at the front of the building. The English Gothic design Is predominant in the architecture and there is a hint of Spanish mis- sion in the tower, which lends rustic appearance pleasing to the eye As one approaches the church from Main

Monologues and other comedy fea- lures in addition to musical selections will make up their program.
 w. 0. T. U. Explains. The Herald" has received the fol- lowing statement concerning the at titude of the w. c. T. U. on the mat ter of removing its fountain from the monument plot on Central square, with the request that 1t be published:
 "The Woman's Christian Temper ance union would like this fully un- derstood, that the railroad company did grant them the privilege of erect ing the fountain on their land and beautifying the same, hence the tri- angle. yearly rent is paid, in ad- vance, for the privilege. Is rent paid for the privilege of the monument standing there? Our lease calls for twelve feet, more or less, and vet eran remarked he would rather that the monument extended onto that twelve feet, for which We do not care, but we wonder why an article is in the New Britain Herald every now and then for the removal of the foun- tain. There is no other suitable place for it. Had the fountain not been placed there the plot would not have been ready for the monument. The organization does not object to the monument being there, or ask for it's removal, as several men asked why they did not-one request is as reasonable as the other-but they do feel there should have been courtesy shown and they should have been consulted in regard to placing the monument there instead of trespass- ing upon their rights.
 ''It is extremely unfortunate that the gate should have been put in an inconvenient place, as the foun- tain was there first, and is not so small that it could not be seen when the gate was put in. A veteran told member of the w. c. T. U. they did not want the fountain removed. The w. c. T. U. has been capable of attending to it's business, and the per- son or persons so interested will have enough to take up their time if they attend to their own affairs and do it properly. THE w. C.

 Throwing open the huge oak doors, the visitor is afforded a view of the splendid auditorium, we'll lighted and ventilated by an abundance of inn ported antique windows, most of which were donated by kind friends. A spacious aisle leading down the center and two on the sides allow am- pie room for many worshippers to pass. The seating capacity is limited to about 500.
 Over the center aisle are suspended two showers of seven large electric lights, and over each of the side aisles are hung showers of three lights. These. together with those in the vestibule and in the sanctuary, espe- cially the large gold plated chandelier directly in front of the main altar, flood the commodious meeting room with soft rays of light. A glance at the ceiling will convince even the most critical of its artistic finish. It is of ash. neatly paneled and finished. as is all the woodwork, in golden oak effect. Two ventilators appear in

 On Thursday Messrs. Cruse and Vogel went. oyer to interview the farmers in the Davidson glacier reg ion and 1t is more than probable that the former will have satisfac- tory arrangements made with them before his return to Haines.
 Mr. Cruse is very optimistic in regard to the shipping of all kinds Of vegetables and berries from this vicinity to Seattle, and if the people who are interested will join hands with him and do their part this town will shortly become one Of the most important places in the territory,

People with kidney ills waut- to be cured. When one suffers the lortures of an aching back. relief is eagerly sought for. There are many remedies today that relieve, but not permanently. Doan's Kidney Pills have brought lasting results to thousands. Here is proof of merit from this vicinity.
 F. A. sutton, tent and awning dealer, Room 6, Capitol Hotel Bldgo Salem, Oregon, says: T had kid uev trouble and rheumatism for ten yaers and sometimes [ was laid up. Doctors did not help me. Sharp pains extended through my back and were most severe iL my kidneys and loius. Often when working, l had to give up. lest weight and WIS in very poor health. l had headaches, rested but little at night and did not know what to do. On a friends advice, l tried Doan s Alu- ley Pills and to my surprise, they brought O great improvement in a few days. l continued to get bet ter steadily. l got more sleep, my appetits improved and the pains gradually, but surely left me- After 1 had used three boxes of Doan's Kidney Pills, I was in better health than I had been for ten years and not a sign of kidney complaint re- mained. The cure has been perm anent. I gladly confirm the en- doBement I gave Deans Kidney Pills several years ago."

 It taIlag eleven days to go rouRd the lake, and when we reached 1Iwanze, the most sOutherly place,
 we found that bubonic plague had broken out, and was raging in the native village. l wanted to see the people, however, and took the risk of going among them, but, luckily, J did not catch the disease. On the shores O the lake the natives do their washing by banging the clothes and mats on stones. Once there were more women than stones and two of them banged their washing on the back of a dead crocodile that lay at the edge of the lake. In the market places girls were sold daily to neighboring na- tives who wanted brides. These girls, whose ages ranged from 15 10 20 years, were chained to the wall of a house just like cattle, and l saw a bargain being struck by the father of a girl wth a native who wished to buy her. The pros pective bridegroom, who had sever al wives already, offered to pay live cows, 20 rupees, and Six sacks of rice, but the old man wanted more They seemed about to fight, so heated did the argument become, but at last the price was accepted. The father then unclaimed his daughter, and with every expression of anger threw the end of the chain towards his future son-in- law, who caught it and took off his prize. They were both dreadful looking creatures"
 Among the Kikuyus, who inhabit the east side of Victoria Nyanza, Mrs. Blount discovered some curious marriage customs. For four days before the wedding the bride be- comes hysterical and shrieks and dances as fl she were obiecting to the marriage. This is a custom that is always adhered to, and for the four days the pandemonium is continued till her friends are thoroughly disgusted with her be- havicur On the fourth day she is taken by her mother and annointed with an evil-smelling oil and the bridegroom Is invited to come and take her away. This he does while the maiden continues her protests.
