I NDKRWORLD HKCUCITEn. II V XEW YEAR'S 1EBA It'll ERY. CHICAGO, Jan. 1. Chicago greet ed the new year today with swelled heads and many bruises and crimBon spots, an ugly conscience and a nasty laste. in its month. The annual scenes of debauchery were even more vivid than ever, but they were con fined to the hotels and cafes, up to nbout midnight, when these places began to belch their mobs of drunk en, vulgar, profane nnd vitiated in mates, chiefly in rented dress suits and wenring installment Jewelry. From that hour until long after daylight, these persons infested streetcars, taxicabs, and elevated roads and other conveyances. The majority of them reached home, but some will never get home, for the New Year debauch has become a fruitful occasion for recruiting the red light district. At nearly every street corner, in alleys and In door ways could be seen beautifully gowned girls and women, drur.k and denthly sick, the sport of hoodlums and recruiting agents for resorts of the underworld. Many of them will never see their homes again. In the best hotels the scenes were such as can be witnessed only upon an occasion like this, when all bars of decency and morals are let down nnd the wildest license granted any one who will pay the price of a table and unlimited drinks.

The person arrested Is Hymn Allen, an 1 18-year-old boy of Peel, who will face a charge of larceny this afternoon in the court of R. W. Marsters, the new Justice of the Peace.

He Bold the out fit at a second band goods store In Roseburg this murnlng for $3 und was just about to depart for Peel when Qulne arrested 111 ill. The boy maintained that he bought the outfit from a stranger at Riddle for $ The officers smile at this story In view of the fact that Allen sold the weapon for $2 less and from the further fact that the boy had been In trouble before and once was an lnmnte of the state reform school. He was seen in the Riddle livery ty, a stockman named Hill, who had ridden Into the town on Horseback a few hours before from Coos county, LATER. Young Allen was not arraigned in the Justice Court this afternoon, but was re-committed to the state reform school, from wlllc. Institution he had been paroled. The war Bcare so prominent two weeks ago has been pretty effectually smothered. Coming as it did on the heels of Mr. Carnegie's ten million dollar donation to the cause of peace.

There is no profit for the breeder or the dairyman lu the hybrid or the mongrel. Scrub livestock is the road to failure, and scrub methods the uvenue to bankruptcy. The Douglas county breeders who ars brini'ng In better tyiiea and purer blood are solving greater problems than the men who are building battleships." And when Baxter Robinson pur chased from the Baldwin Sheep and Lund Co. six head of registered French Rnnilioiilllets and landed them at Roseburg, he added another spoke to the wheel of pure bred stock for old Douglas. The five ewes und one ram la Mr. Robinson's choice of the entire flock of the Baldwin Sheep nnd Land Co. Tlie lliitlerttcld Purt-liaHP. The writer went to Hay Creek with the Idea of buying 25 to 100 of the best Rambouillet ewea. but on looking at the sheep was very much Impressed with their size, form, den sity und quulity of fleece, which far surpuHscn anything 1 have ever seen before, they being very even, splen didly covered and forms the equal of the mutton breeds. 1 was so taken with the bunch that I began negotiations, with the result of the purchase of the entire band of ewes and lambs. We felt that we could not afford to do without this bunch of owes, nor could we let them get Into other hands, and we believe them to be the best bunch of Ram bouillet ewea In the world. Mr. Ed wards haa never aold but five ewes from this flock and has taken pride In keeping the flock Intact, and seemed to be particularly anxious that nil should go to one plnce where the breeding would be kept abso liltelv pure, which we shnll do. BUTTERFIELD LIVESTOCK CO., LTD. A. 0. Butterfteld. The purchase by A. O. Buttcrfjold of the entire flock of registered French Merinos from the Baldwin Sheep nnd Land Co., numbering 648 head of ewcB nnd lambs, signalizes the greutest purchase and sule of French Raniboiiillets ever recorded In the history of the breed In Europe or America. It Is In more respects han mere numbers the premier transaction In pure bred Merinos of this Illustrious strain since Its found ing at the Government fold of Rnm houlllet. First nnd most Important of all, tho sale Involves the owner ship of the only puro b;ed French flock In America, a flock which enn not be duplicated In France todny, either In numbers or kindred quality. Mr. Butterfleld Is a brave buyer and made at Hay Creek the deal of his life, and the sheep breeder congratu lates him. Therefore the above being correct, Douglns county can boast of having tho only pure bred Kronen ItainhoiilllelB In Oregon. One of the five ewes thnt Mr. Robinson pur chased is valued at $1000. her sire and dam both being Imported from the Government fold of Rambouillet Another ewe's dam and the mm s sire being Imported from the flocks of Thlrouln-Sorrenn.
