Governor West announced today that he intended to become a member of the cavalry regiment which Lieutenant P. J. Hennessey, of the United States Cav alry, is organizing.

If the Governor goes to Mexico, this would eliminate him from taking part in the coming campaign. He said he would not resign as Governor yet, yet It Is said it is probable that Secretary of State Olcott would be the acting Governor for the remainder of Govern or West's term. BAKER.

The applause given Mr. Fgan's opening number amounted almost to an ova tion. Daily News, St. Paul. vv hen the Irish welcome anyone It is no half hearted affair; no more was that accorded Mr. Egan, just back from a triumphal tour of Ireland in opera. Mr. Egan possesses a tenor of lyric power and admirable quality. He sings with sensitive and emotional feeling it was in his lyric numbers that his art spoke most convincingly and with authority. His voice is cap able of a wide range Qf tonal expres sion, being especially beautiful in mezza-volce passages. The concert was a welcome which was little short of an ovation.

I saw him a few years ago. in New York and he had left the root off his beer but had kept up his capacity. iou know all that happened after I grew up and now earning my living, a good living, too, so that I won't consider going back to Harry. I am a pretty good scrapper, because I used to have so many 'fights with my brother,' but I prefer quiet to notoriety. This is my first professional visit to Oregon. The last visit was one of recreation and we hurried from San i ranclsco to the Canadian Rockies. "Today Mr. Clifford and I walked Into the country near Corvallis and a farmer invited us in to pick flowers and gave us some frrsh milk. It was a great treat. As for dancing, I think that the turkey trot will be the Ameri can National dance. You have read how the waltz was first opposed when introduced after the minuet and lanc ers and finally became the favorite dance. Dancing -is necessary exercise for tired business men and girls who are in buildings under a nervous strain all day long. Some preachers believe in Jt, while others connect it with all the odious things imaginable. Then there' are freak steps like the fish walk. Mr. Clifford was fooling in London, when a peer asked him what he was doing. He answered that he was dancing the fish walk. The peer took it up seriously and the dance became a fad in London society. The tango and other graceful steps are here like the waltz, to stay." Mrs. Thaw then related the story of her tour including a peep Into Mexico, which she will keep fresh by a gener ous album of kodak photographs and many souvenirs. But do you suppose that she would pose in her walking suit? Not much. She offered a batch of portraits instead. However, they are not altogether deceiving, for now she weighs 125 pounds.

Moore, of Spokane, former law partner of Senator Miles Poindexter. today renounced adhesion liill! Rosarian Cafeteria to the Progressive party and an nounced his confidence that the Repub lican party could be relied on to fur nish whatever progressive remedies might be needed for National ills. Mr. Moore made a statement of his position and told the club members that a personal impression that he would not be welcome was all that kept htm away from the late meeting of the Republican state central com mittee, at Tacoma, last Saturday. Mr. Moore was in the city for the purpose of perfecting arrangements for the visit of W. A. Prendergast. City Controller of New York, to Spokane. Recent efforts of Mr. Moore to bring together the members of the Progres sive and Republican parties met with a denial on the part of Senator Poin dexter that he had any connection with the movement. The late partner of Senator Poindex-ter- is known as an advanced Progres sive and his return to the old party will prove a decided discouragement to his lute political associates". Park. chestra.

Merely use iiLL wherever the directions say butter or lard, always remembering to use one-third less Cottolene, for Cottolene goes much farther than either butter or lard. You really have to save money if you cook with Cottolene, for according- to chemical laws, a certain amount of flour can only contain a certain amount of shortening. If you were to use as much Cottolene as the recipe called for of butter, you would have too much Cottolene. This might do no harm, except in cakes, which might fall because of being too light and delicate. Yes, this applies to every department of the cook book, even to candies. For example, just try this: CODFISH BALLS- Take a pint bowl of codfish picked -wnrj fine, two pint bowls of raw peeled potatoes, sliced thickly, and boil in cold water nntil the potatoes are thoroughly done. Drain off the water, mash, add butter the size of an egg, on well-beaten egg and three tablespoonrals of milk. Floor the hands and make into balls. Put two ounces of Cottolene into a frying pan, and when hot, fry the balls to m nica brown. Or the codfish balls may ba fried in hot Cottolene after the manner of fritters. ' Our FREE Cook Book, HOME HELPS, will be found a valuable supplement to any books you may now be using. "Write for a copy also order a pail of Cottolene of your grocer. CHICAGO 1mm
