Strong, refused to take any orders from
him and declared that the principal had
no authority to tell him to do anything.

WILLIAMS IS TWO TO OXE
Betting .Greatly Favors the Repub
lican Nominee for Mayor.
Betting on the election is still 2 to 1 on
Williams, but will probably loosen up to
24 to 1 In a day or two. In a down-town
sporting center $450 of a Lane man's
money is covered by J1000 of a Williams
man's cash, and $100 even money has been
offered that Williams will be elected by
1000 votes over Lane.
Captain E. W. Spencer has put up ?S00
on Lane at the ruling rate of 1 to 2, and
of this money, 5200 has been covered by
Frank C. Baker. Captain Spencer an
nounced yesterday that he was willing to
bet a pocketfm of mnnev on Lane at
1 to 2.
Sam Wolf, a Lane boomer, who has
money up on the Democratic candidate,
has been snooping around trying to nego
tiate a bet that Williams would not re
ceive 3500 plurality, but found nobody with
rash for such a wager.
"Whenever Democrats get cold feet,"
remarked Mr. Baker yesterday, "they be
gin to bet on pluralities."
FAVORS ' CITIZENS' TICKET.
rVlI but Two Cnnrfidntes Indorsed by
-Municipal Association.
All candidates on the Citizens' ticket
have been indorsed by the Municipal As
sociation save two A. N. Gambell for
City Auditor, and L. L. Paget for Coun
cilman in the Third Ward.
No nominee has been indorsed for
Auditor, but T. C. Devlin. Republican,
will undoubtedly receive a large vote
from the Municipal Association's farces
for that office. Gamboll was nominated
in the citizens' conrentlon contrary to
the programme of the moring spirits of
that assemblage.
George D. Dunning. Republican, re
celves ihf support of the association In
stead of L. fe. Paget the Citizens' nomi
nee. Paget Is a Prohibitionist and as
the association considered the ticket
loaded too heavily with brethren ot that
faith, it was deemed best to leave off a
Prohibition nominee In the Third Ward,
whose sentiment is overwhelmingly
against Prohibition.
The Municipal Association's ticket has
been printed and will be circulated free
ly for the election. "In the Interest of
good government."' says the card, "the

OPENING OF THE OAKS
BEAUTIFUL- RESORT OX ISLAND
IX THE RIVER.
Every Attraction to Invite and Xoth
ing to Which Objection
Could Be Raised.
The Oaks opened last night as a Sum-'
jner resort and amusement place. Lying
up the river on the East Side, and reached
by the O. W. P. cars, the resort contains
within its boundaries all that a person
should wish of an evening. It Is a com
bination of reformed Coney Island and a
Parisian cafe, with the river thrown In.
Moreover, It Is all fitted completely and
Is run "on the square. ' Those who go
out there with the idea of being rowdy
stand an excellent chance of being thrown
out It is a pleasant Summer outing re
sort, filled with amusements. There ia a
band, an assortment of sideshows, one or
two of them unsurpassed, a dancing pa
vilion, a place to eat and to drink, all
sorts of gay booths, and. best of all, the
chutes.
Picnic p'arties used to land at the Oaks
because It was the prettiest spot on the
river. One might think it would be spoiled
by Its present use, but it Is not The
Oaks never looked so well as last night
All the natural beauty of the trees which
gave it Its name is preserved, lawns
spread 'out beneu.th them, and in the cen
ter is the bandstand. Out on the end of
the spltof land is the restaurant, with
wide v'erandas, cool places In which to sit
in the cool evenings and hear the music
through the trees.
But most do not care for such quiet
diversion, and they are well cared for.
Primarily the chutes attract. Last night
'crowds stood in line for an hour for a
chance to ride, and have the glorious sen
sation ot racing madly down the incline
to splash with a thud into the pond at
the end. Then there is a maze, a "laugh
ing gallery" and something new and de
lightful, the "Chilcoot Pass." This little
arrangement Is a long inclined plane with
big bumps in it. The victim pays his
money, climbs 20 or 40 steps, and. seating
himself on the slippery plane, shoots
down, to the Intense amusement of the
spectators.
The dance hall did a big business last
night. A perfect floor and a good partner
and music to. fit The girl who did not
bring along a man who could dance well
had herself to blame. And the place was
filled with pretty girls, with chaps who
did their best The hall Is surely bigger
than any In town, and has the advantage
of having the free wind frorii the river
circulate through It.
What characterizes the Oaks a re
sort Is the respectability of It Such
places opened on the outskirts of most
towns are Immediately patronized by the
worst element of the coinmunlty. but not
the Oaks It seems to have escaped that.
For of the thousands of people who went
out there last night, all behaved them
selves properly. There was one little row,
and that was the case of a man getting
punished for being too hasty In trying
to get into one of the chutes boats before
a lady. Jf the Municipal Association
should visit the Oaks it would immediate
ly indorse it
The Oaks? Is reachable by O. W. P. cars
running out First street, and by launches.
An ample dock Is provided for boats. The
service is quick and the ride up the river
route Is worth while in itself. It took
enterprise to build the Oaks, and money
to fit It out sp well as it is.- Particular
commendation is deserved for making it
decent.
