WHY DANCE HALLS FLOURISH.
Jane Addams of the famous Hull
House settlement in Chicago tells of
a young man who came to her with
his sister who, he explained, wanted
to go somewhere evenings, because
their rooms were "too stuffy to stay
in." In the responsible part of elder
brother he had token her "to all the
missions that he could find, but that
gome way she did not seem, to care
for the society of the best Christian
people.
Miss Addams thinks this is a fair
sample of about 3,000,000 cases in
the United States where young wom
en with good red blood and a natural
craving for pleasure find no satisfac
tion among those church people who
frown upon the common amusements.
Few poor girls are blessed with a
thoughtful elder brother, and the
tendency is to follow the procession
of their sisters to the public dance
halls, where some cities allow liquor
to be sold. Miss Addams says:
"The classical city provwea tor
play with careful solicitude, building
the theater as it built the market
place and the temple- In the medi
eval city the knights held their tour
neys, the guilds their pageants, the
people their dances, and the church
made festival for its most cherished
.saints with gay street processions.
Only in the modern industrial city
have men concluded that it is no
longer necessary for the municipal
ity to provide for the insatiable de
sire for play, and they have therefore
entered upon a most dangerous and
difficult experiment. Apparently the
modern city sees in these girls only
two possibilities, both of them com
mercial; first, a chance to utilize by
' day their new and tender labor pow
ers in its factories 'and shops, and
then another chance in the evening
to extract from them their petty
wages by pandering to their love of
pleasure
The cities dearly have an obliga
tion in the matter which has been
neglected in this age, when the re
sults are likely to be most woful. But
a start has been made in the right
direction, with municipal gytnna-.
siums, playgrounds, baths and clubs.
The 17 Chicago parks have beautiful
halls which are given over to any
band of young people who wish to
conduct dancing parties under city
chaperonage. ;
j. ; Many social clubs have deserted
neighboring saloon halls for the more
attractive municipal quarters. And
they are glad to go home at 11,
I whereas economic necessity obliged
them to use the halls of the saloon
men until daylight. Exhange.
and Canvon counties. Idaho is now
: a state well advanced in irrigation,
and not alone by reason of national
aid and encouragement. In supply
ing water to sagebrush lands Idaho
has been energetically at work on its
own account, beginning with the
national cession of 1,00,000 acres of
arid lands for homesteamers in 1894.
Idaho's land board revenues have in
creased in four years to nearly $3,
5G0.O0O, and the net earnings to $1,-
000,000. The irrigation operations
are not only self-supporting but have
become largely profitable, fn theory,
all the irrigation projects undertaken
by the United States are expected
eventually to repay their cost form
ing a revolving fund to extend the
work. Idaho is showing that it turns
out better than the estimates. St.
Louis Globe-Democrat-
WHAT SALEM SAYS.
Those Portlanders, who are desir
ous of removing the seat of Oregon's
government to East Portland, set up
the claim that the present capitol is
unsafe. Is it any wonder that the
building is weak when there has been
so much log-rolling within its walls
biennially for 40 years or more? But
the capitol at Salem is not in such a
condition as those real estate boom
ers down the river would like to have
it just now. Statesman.
Having been denied the boon of
statehood, Arizona and New Mexico
will have to take a firmer grip of the
plow handle and show what they can
do as territories.
Mr. Taft has traveled over 50,000
miles on official business. Perhaps
this is the reason Congress thinks
$25,000 cash a year should be con
sidered an offset to traveling expenses.
England is building a smokeless
battleship with an internal combus
tion engine, said to be an improve
ment on the turbine system. The
pace in marine improvement grows
more strenuous every year.
Uncle Sam's 320,000 acres in the
Panama zone will cost $1125 an acre,
with a $360,000,000 canal included,
also an interoceanic railroad. Where
is there another improved farm to
compare with it?

Why Not Begin Today and Forever
Rid Yourself of Stomach Trouble
Which is t Detriment to Anyone
It Is Merely a Matter of Taking
Little Diapepsin.
You can eat anything your stom
ach craves without fear of a case of
Indigestion or Dyspepsia, or that
ycor 'food will ferment or sour on
your stomach if you will take Diapep
sin after eating.
Your meals will taste good, and
anything you eat will be digested;
nothing can ferment or turn into
acid or poison or stomach gas, which
causes Belching, Dizziness, a feeling
of fullness after eating, Nausea, In
digestion (like a lump of lead in
stomach), Biliousness, Heartburn,
Water brash, Pain in stomach and
intestines or other symptoms.
Headaches from the stomach are
absolutely unknown where this effec
tive remedy is used- Diapepsin really
does all the work of a healthy stom
ach. It digests your meals when your
stomach can't. Each triangule will
digest all the food you can eat and
leave nothing to ferment or sour.

health, strong Stomach, for you then

OREGON NEEDS ONE.
SHE CAN, BUT WONT.
Program Blocked Out By Man Who
Does Not Know Women.
CHICAGO. March 9-N'o woman
need remain a mental lightweight in
this age of progress. She can cure
herself of her intellectual inferiority
by getting a job, forgetting romance
and costly raiment, mixing in politics
and freeing herself from "Incarcera
tion in the house," according to state-
manes made by Professor W. I.
Thomas of the University of Chicago,
whose views concerning the "Adventi
tious character" of woman, have been
widely disseminated.
"Incarceration within the house is
the greatest curse that could overtake
the nervous system, and mind of wo
man," says Professor Thomas in a
communication to a women's Club.
"From this standpoint our girls and
women are in a vicious psychological
situation, as vicious as political or ec
clesiastical despotism. Women are
coming more and more to rely less
upon the will of the men.
"It is not so much that the occupa
tions need the women as the women
need the ocupatkms. Ordinarly the
woman abandons all Intention of
entering an occupation at the altar.
Even in our universities, where wom
en prepare for usefulness, they keep a
wavring eye on the subject when it
comes to matrimonial aspirations."
HAWAII MAYCAN BANANAS.
HONOLULU, Hawaii, March 9.
One of tht local canning companies
has been experimenting with bananas
as a canned product, with very pro
mising results thus far. So far as is
known here canned bananas are a
new thing in the fruit trade, but there
would seem to be no reason why they
should not take well, once they be
came properly known.
Of the fifty or sixty distinct varie
ties of bananas, only two of in
different quality are known in the
markets of the temperate zones. Up
to the present time it has been im
practicable to introduce many of the
more delicately flavored and delici
ous kinds of the' fruit, owing to their
very poor shipping qualities, which,
however will be overcome in a lare
measure if the canning experiments
prove successful.
INFANT MURDERER.
LOS ANGELES, March 9.- The
Unique defense in the trial of Edjar
Nichulus, a 16 year old boy who shot
and killed Frank Rigpetti, whom he
attempted to hold up on the night of
February 15 last is that he has grown
so fast that his brain has been dis
eased. The boy is six feet two inches
in height and very narrow. The
trial began yesterday and attorneys
for Nichulus repeatedly called atten
tion to his body, and his apparent
lack of brain power.
HE DID HIS BEST,
NEW YORKMarch 9 John
Vant, a truck driver, is dead today,
after having sacrificed his life to save
a six year old boy who darted in front
of the horses in East 22nd. Street. In
an endeavor to turn the team aside
Vant was thrown from his seat fall
ing under the wheels of his truck and
being crushed. He died two hours
later in liellevue Hospital. ,
