Stubling & Williams have received a fine assortment of imported liquors dur ing the week, consisting of brandies, whiskies and wines, which they will offer over their bar, and will Tetail at very low prices. Only the best wines, liquors and cigars kept at their sample rooms, corner Court and Second streets Much complaint is made concerning the action of a large number of boys who filled the back end of the opera house last night. Their noise and talking were very annoying. Parents should not allow their children to attend public meetings of this kind without either be As this has been our practice since the beginning: of we offer no apology or give any further reason This year our sale will be. far more important than ever before, as our stock is fuller, more varied, and owing to our taking advantage of Tariff changes and the business de pression, allows us to offer more tempting prices. Wow is the time to get out your sav ings and invest them to good advantage. While a Dollar in our house is not any bigger in size than anywhere else, it looks so because it will buy so much more. This is not a sale of old goods carried over from year to year, for at the commencement of the year our stock was extremely low, and this has allowed us to be liberal buyers. This is strictly a sale of Fresh, Choice and Bought as Low of ing with them or having some one else look after them. Miss Augusta Schiller, a bright, pretty and captivating soubrette, with a voice both beautiful in quality and cultivation, has introduced successfully into the An derson's bran new farce, "Jolly Old Chums," which will be presented here Dec. 15, some very superior music, not heard butsido comic operas now-a-days without burlesque frills. This speaks volumes for Miss Schiller. The Markets. There is little or no change in the staples, wheat maintains its price, but the bears knocked it down temporarily at Sound points a cent or two a bushel last week. The arrivals here have fallen off largely on account of the bad condi tion of the roads, and the further fact that the larger portion of - the crop has been delivered. , - Potatoes are firm, but prices remain unchanged rating from 50 to 60 cents per sack, the former being the usual price, the latter for a small lot or two of extra quality. Hogs have fallen off, $3.50 per hundred being the the standard price, though one small lot from Klickitat, in extra condi tion brought Wednesday $3.60. Eggs are quite plentiful at 30 cents. There is an abundance of vegetables, cabbage, cauliflower, beets, turnips, car- pts, onions, celery, sweet potatoes and some radishes and young onions. Oranges are plentiful and cheap con sidering the. earliness of the Eeason, as are also lemons and bananas. Apples are at all prices because they are of all qualities, so tnat it is impossi ble to set a price. They range from 50 cents to $1.50 per box and even higher.

SH as Cash will Purchase, Teachers' Institute. Owing to some lack of preparation, and the absence of two of those on the program, it was not carried out as printed for the afternoon. . However, Mies Sears gave a .most interesting talk in lieu of her promised paper on "Busy Work in Primary Classes." Profs. Gor- ham and Frazier being absent, Prof. Gavin promptly came forward and gave one of his admirable talks on "The Use of the Globe."', There was little or no discussion during the. afternoon session. The presence of a number of pushing agents of rival publishing houses adds life and interest to the institute. EVENING EXERCISES. The overcrowded condition of the opera house long before the beginning of the exercises, showed the urgent need of a larger hall for such gatherings. The singing as very good ; recitation by Bessie French extra good; but the doll drill was just good, gooder, goodest 1 The address by Professor Chapman, of the State University, was most earnest, able, and a scholarly plea for higher education. Perhaps the most notewor thy point in the address was the em phasis given to the necessity of acquir ing the ability to express one's self cor rectly, forcibly and fluently in the English language. this morning's session.. The teachers were rather Blow in as sembling, beveral new faces were to be seen, among them being Prot A.' Frazier and: Miss Edith Peabody, of the Dufur school. - After some excellent singing and roll call, the critic made her report. While some mistakes were noted, the warm commendation of the many excellencies of yesterday's work must have been a halm for all wounds made by the criticisms. The discussion of the "County Course of Study in Ungraded Schools" showed that the teachess ot the county are alive to the necessity of some system of grad ing schools, whereby uniformity and def inite results shall be secured. The greatest difficulty-found in trying to use the present course has. been on account of opposition on the part of parents.

Of course, if you haven't a cent in the world, these reduced prices will be of little service to you. Or if you have so much money that you don't know how to spend it, then reductions are not an inducement. But if you are like the ma jority of people, with just a little money and inclined to make it go as far as pos sible, then our figures are interesting. We want in this sale to see how much more we can make a Dollar buy than it used to. The same may be said of the finely composed essay on "Silent Force in School Government," by Miss Everhart. Lack of time cut short any discussion, of these very important subjects..' The sug gestions of the essayists were however so thorough and appropriate that further discussion seemed unnecessary. The. time wps too limited for a profita ble discussion of map drawing, yet the talk and blackboard illustration of Prof. Asa Stogsdill . were interesting and in structive, and elicited some valuable comments. .. R. A. Gailey read a well composed eulogy on the value of mathematical study. There was one almost inexcusable mistake in yesterday's report, wherein it was stated Miss Callison waa organist. This was wrong as Miss Hollister pre sided at the organ. P. Institute Program. The following is the program for this evening and tomorrow morning: OPERA HOUSE 7 :30 o'clock.
