Because of the connection of this man's life with the story of the development, of the West, that he pro duces, days of savagery and sanguinary struggles that were necessary before its present agricultural and general commercial greatness. Born there when it was an undefined country, his life was spent as one-of the lonely guides who carved tracks in the wilderness. With managerial astuteness on his visits he always adds something inter esting to his programme. The battle of Summit Springs is reproduced so effectively and is such a remarkably accurate picture of Indian life and the. sanguinary days of the old frontier that It occupies a prominent position. A troop of trained horses has been added until the very heights of equine sagactiy probably equals anything ever seen in an arena. Annie Schafer, the remarkable broncho rider, is to the fore, surrounded by a band of ranch girls In range and trained horse riding. Miss Ray Thompson on Irma G., ridden without a bridle. Is an absolute novelty in equestrianism. The Zouaves, and in fact, all the old features have been reinforced. The bucking mule. Maud, after a Winter's rest, still raises cain. and the West has been scoured to secure additional wild bucking bronchos. A real novelty has been added in a game of football on horseback. It is of such a strenuous nature that breast plates, knee-pads, shin-guards, boots, nose-pads, are necessary to prevent in jury to the animals. The riders are not permitted to touch the ball, and only the horses are permitted to push, shove and kick in its propulsion. The struggle between Indian and Cowboy riders to gain the goals creat ed tremendous enthusiasm in New York where the general verdict was, that 'it was a rouser and Buffalo Bill's Wild West this year Is a hummer." No parade will be given as every en ergy of man and horses is reserved to give ginger and go to good perform ances. Two performances will be given at 2 and 8 P. M. today and tomorrow at Twenty-fifth and Raleigh streets. BLANKETS,COMFORTERS Special reduced prices on blankets, com forters, bedspreads. pIllowB, sheets, pillow-cases and lace curtains.

BANK WITH A STRONG BANK ILLUSTRATION NO. 12 THE OLDEST TRUST COMPANY IN OREGOU A few years ago there -was a very prudent and thrifty rever end gentleman living in South ern Oregon. He procured from us two of our certificates of de posit payable on ninety days' call, with interest at 4 per cent per annum. Afterwards one of these certificates came back to us from New York City. The reverend gentleman had made an investment, and he found that his certificate was as good as cash to make payment for the same. It is always good to have your money drawing interest until you find a permanent invest ment. Call on us and let us give you further examples of how these certificates work.
