Qoongo Waters, tho ronowned funopathisb, ordered. It's good for tliat,tirdi fooling and 'tho children cry fOTit&5iiko they do for Dr. Pitcher's Oastork. ?T!s7tbat in part is th'o Elks' Skidoo. $ Last night tho great festival of tho AtemidgQ of Elks wag at tho zonith it glory. Bfight lights wero flash ing, Eedl llro was burning and a my riad of'colorod lanterns vrexo shedding ijhjdjVjkalcidescopic glaro over a thou anhappy people. It was a grand uccMr Tho first night enmo as a sur urieSflVTho peoplo wctw not looking far inything so good. Tho second night was revelation. In tho classic language f thSUaxnortal bard of Dahomey, "It mu aajjthing skmnedi that over touched tolODt'jf After all, tho surprising number of rcd-chcokod girls, with that Willamette valloy complexion, stolen fromi tho peaches and" warciantel not to rub off, who wero present and assisted in work ing at tho booths, was tho crowning featuro of tho festival. On tho outside of tho building tho Elks' orchestra of twenty-two pieces dispensed tho brightost and gayest of music. Insido the building, splendid music was furnished by tho American Spanish Concort company and tho Rose City quaTtet. Tho music was good and had it been ladlcdl out at a time when the was a dearth in attractions, it would create a f uro"i; but hero it was only a plcasingvincident in a hundred. Tho interior of tho building was lined with booths, whero everything imaeinablo was sold. Ten cents was tho prevailing price.

George Rose managed tho country store; Mrs. Charles Puller tho candy booth; Mrs. II. G. Myers, tho raffle; Madamb Romanuo looked nfter her own sliow, as did C. C. Shafford his x-ray business. U-iofooSoa Troner bossed tho photo postal card booth and by that; time the visitor was ready to bo going to tho "Ratscollar," beyond tho reach of human viow. Tho "Rateoellar" is simply a place whero all kinds of nico summer drinks and ices aro sold at tho nominal sum of 10 cents. It is gaily decorated, and was liberally patronized. The Galatea illusioh was in tho ex treme cotter of tho Ratsccllar. This was conducted by that renowned and artistic sculptor, Mr. Whit Holman. Ho related tho beautiful legend! of Pyg malion and Galatea and did it bo well many of tho auditors shied tears. The difficult nolo of Galatea was enaeted by numerous Salem belles. "Any old gai will do for Galatea," said Pygmalion, as ho pressed tho button for a change of scene. Tina Kangaroo coul't was a pippin. You'll know why when you're told that Chhrlio McNary and Frank Wrightman were on tho bench. Mr. McNary used tho samo amount of dignity in tho Moot court that1 ho does in real life, and Mr. Wrightman looked as wiso as an owl. Those aro just i few samples of tho good thingU, Heal domestic cigars wero on sail and for sale. A cut-glass diamond ring was exhibited; tho candy booth Wad sweets mado fresh every hour; tho dodging nigger wns not to be grinned, at and tho jungle boys woro not half bad. In tho menagerie, the bird3 andl tho beasts were there, just as at the animal fair yes, and a rfetty girl was heard to sing: "And whtoi bocamo of th's monk, tho monk, the monk," etc. The moving pictures are said to havo showed San Francisco in ruins and was exhibited by concessionaires. It was not half so badi as a follow would think. It was given by tho same aggregation that was in Portland for tho past sx woeks just oast of tho Imperial hotel. Tlie Portland peoplo stood for it. Tho man-eating tiger and tho ice o'Ktiin oating gr.l woro tho finest known to be in captivity. Tho wheel of fortune, tho magic fish pond and the lotteries, or rather raffles, woro very amusing. Bub the best thing about tho entire festival is that it is only half over. Tonight and tomorrow night tho Elks will continue to mako mcrty nndi to dish out happiness on a silver plato to their friends, whoso namo is legion. The same jolly fellows will bo there, the samo pretty girls will preside at tho booths nndi tho ico cream and lem onade will have that same Chilcoot coolnosM, and tho samo soft strains of sweet music will float over the night air as last night. Tired soul, you can't keep away. Twenty-three for tho old grouch who starts at homo.

This will be a placztnd, thirty-eix by thirty inches, with five pictures of ships, those of tho Bonhommo Richard, the Constitution, tho Ilantsfcrd, ilk Olyinpia, and the Kansas, representing various types of A Bridjo of a Few Weeks. Perhaps tho saddest of tho announce ments which the cablo brought to rela tives and friends in Now York Monday was tho message received by Judgo Diigro from hi1? daughter, Mrs, Fred erick Cossitt, stated tfiefly that death had ended her brief honeymoon, and that, she would roturn to New York with tho body of her husband. Attend ed! by many of the supremo court judges of t'ho city ami persons pronii- nonb in Now York's best society, tho Cossitt's wedding at the Ilo'el Savoy had been ono of the most notable Juno nuptials. Miss Dugro was admired by a very largo circle of frienda, and her husband' was ono of tho most pop ular man in Princeton AVlicn tho young couple sailed they wero accom- puniiod to tho pier by many of thoso who nttended tho wedding. What adds to tho severity of tho blow is th'o fact that Judge DugJ-o and his family wero to sail tomorrow to join their daughter and son-in-law in London. All arrangements had been mado fo- a trip on tho Continent to gether, nnd) Judgo Dugro wns expect ing n message from his daughter an nouncing their safe nlTivnl in London when thocnbJo was received tolling of tho catastrophe at Salisbury.
