NOBILITY. f v-RUE worth Is In being, not seem- 1 IDK- Aln doinp each day that goes by Some little good not In the dream ing Of great things to do by and by. For whatever men sny In blindness And spite of the fancies of youth. There's nothing so kingly ns kindness And nothing so royal as truth. ;We get back our mete as we measure We cannot do wrong and feel right. Nor can we give pain and feel pleasure. For justice avenges each slight. The air for the wing of the sparrow. The bush for the robin and wren. But alway the path that Is narrow And straight for the children of men. Tls not In the pages of story The heart of Its Ills to beguile. Though he who makes courtship to glory Gives all thut he hath for her smile. For when from her heights he has won her, Alas. It Is only to prove That nothing's so sacred as honor And nothing so loynl as lo'-e! We cannot make bargains for blisses Nor catch them like fishes In nets. And sometimes the thing our life misses Helps more than the thlntf which It gets, For good llcth not In pursuing Nor gaining of great nor of small. But Just in .the doing, and doing As we would be dona by. Is all. Through envy, through malice, through hating, Against tho world early and late, No Jot of our courage abating Our part Is to work and to wait. And slight Is the sting of his trouble Whose winnings are less than his worth. For he who Is honest Is noble. Whatever his fortunes or birth. THE FIRST international congress of dancing masters, now in session in Berlin, proposes, espe cially "to choose a commission to en courage uniformity in two or three dances such as the waltz and lancers, iu every part of the civilized wor.d. So that the resident of one country may be able to dance at least a few figures in any ballroom." If there Is any one thing needed more than another in this round world it is a commission which shall not only encourage terpsichorean uniformity, but establish and main tain harmony, and so synchronize the waltz and two-step that anybody can go on tho floor, assured that he knows how to dance and will not merely skip about like a calf at large. Dancing Is often jumping. Danc ers are jumpers not holy jumpers, but plain jumpers. Margaret Fuller once said that real dancing was art, but Emerson opined that it was religion, and prob ably such a notion can bo derived from tho Pythagorean doctrine of measured, rhythmic motion as tho essence of life. However that may bo, dancing is a pleasant recreation and ought to bo protected against tho jumping habit of clumsy men Who have no sense of time, measure or proportion. A commission's the thing an in ternational commission sitting as a high court of grace and beauty, com posed of the dapperest dancing mas ters of all nations. Wo need a con stituted authority to make plain to us tho difference between spasmodic kicking and rhythmic motion. There has been so much doing on Coos Bay tho past week that there has been practically no timo for par ties and tho little ovonts that mark the usual round of society's whirl. Tho city has been crowded with vis itors to take in tho Second Southern Oregpn District Fair, the carnival and tho Oregon-Idaho Development Con gress and Marshfleld folk with thoir usual hospitality havo put aside tho clubs and social sets and united In a broad democratic way to aid tho city's gucstB in enjoying their stay to tho utmost. It has been a long timo einco Marshfleld and Coos Bay has experienced such a busy weok and entertained so many visitors, but it has passed off In a dollghtful fashion and no ono has any rogrots. Thoro lias boon much to seo and many to talk to and tho timo passed just a llttlo too rapidly for most folks. Public entertainments such inspec tion of tho exhibits at tho fair grounds in tho mornings, tho races In tho aftornoons, tho carnival, thea tre or any of a half a dozen attrac tions made a full day for even tho most strenuous and many havo takon them all in day after day. f By far the biggest social event of tho week was the celebration of the natal day of Robert Morris, the founder of the Order of tho Eastern Star and the annual meeting and banquet of the organization of the O. E. S. lodges In Coos county here Thursday. A dinner at mid-day with addresses by Mrs. Florence Bargelt and Mary Pierce was followed by a visit to the fair grounds and in the evening came the annual meeting and banquet. The story of the event was fully told in The Times yesterday. Between 150 and 200 partook of the feast and a dozen or more re sponded to toasts. Tho event was a great success in every way, adding another event to the unusually en joyable functions that members of Doric Chapter, No. 53, havo been hosts at.

T HORSE STOLEN Ranchers Claim That Horse Thieves Are Operating In Upper Coquille Valley. MYRTLE POINT, Ore., Aug. 29. The Enterprise says: "Evidences aro strong" that horso stealing is be ing practiced in this part of tho coun try, which is something very un usual. Other parts of tho country havo been afflicted with organized bands of horso thieves, but this sec tion has escaped attention until re cently, and if tho initial attempt proves successful it Is probable- that many more horses will disappear bo foro an example is made that will discourage future operations. Offi cers and tho owner of tho horso in tend to prosecute a hunt that will make it extremely difficult for the thieves to get away, but they aro not yot assured that they will be success ful. "Tho horso was taken from the Pickthorne pasture on the Middle Fork. It belongod to Wm. Carver, the livery man. It was a young horse, sired by Warrior Gordon, and its dam was a pacer, giving promise of becoming a fine track horse. It was valued at soveral hundred dollars. It disappeared on Friday, the 7th, Dr. J. D. Wotmoro's mare was also supposed to havo been stolen, but has slnco been found." MUSIC at SMITH'S CAFE, dally during luncheon and dinner.
