About the best reputation any young
man can get is that of paying his debts,
living within his means, whatever they
are. There is always an opening for
such young men, men who will do their

ones who "get there" in the long run.

orrhage. In this case the operation is a
success and today the child is doing
well.

o'clock, at which time he retired, and

those who went to call him getting no

The Frenches at the Opera House.
Mr. and Mrs. R. E. French will com
mence a three nights' engagement at
the opera house, next Monday evening,
in Clay M. Green's most successful work,
'The Golden Giant." This is what the
Seattle Post-Intelligencer says of Mr.
and Mrs. French and their company :
R. E. French and Eva Earl French
with their excellent company opened a
week's engagement at Cordray's theatre
last evening to an army of their friends
that filled the house up and down stairs.
The opening play was the romantic five-
act drama of "The Golden Giant,"
written by Clay M. Greene. The en
trance of both Mr. and Mrs. French
were signals for a storm of applause
that left no doubt in the minds of
all present that the stars of the
evening continued great favorites. Mrs.
French was at home in the character of
Bessie Fairflax and did some excellent
comedy work that was well appreciated.
Mr. French made a typical Jack Mason,
in the strong dramatic passages eliciting
a number of hearty rounds of applause
as well as several curtain calls. Mr.
French has a well balanced company
and the performance last evening was
smooth and even, without a hitch from
first to last. Frank Lavarnie had the
heroic part of Alexander Fairflax, the
Golden Giant, and gave a strong, -manly
representation of the Western hero.
Miss Jessie La Sear was very effective
in the character of Ethel Wayne, arous-
ieg the sympathies erf the audience in
the many emotional passages of the
play." Reserved seats for sale at Blake-
ey & Houghton's.
To School Boards.
Summary of steps necessary to vote a
special tax in school districts under law
of 1893:
1. Directors should call a special
meeting, giving ten days notice, to be
held as late in January as possible (say
26 to 28) and get result to county clerk
by Feb. 1st. , .
2. Make application to the county
clerk for amount of assessable property
in your district, not earlier than January
let, but early enough to insure bis reply
by the date of your meeting.
3. The clerk cannot give yon the
assessment before the latter part of Jan
uary, and you cannot vote until you get it,
4. When the vote is made the result
must be forwarded in writing to county
clerk by Feb. 1st. (School laws 1893,
pp. 62-64).
As the time is limited, promptness in
all your proceedings is absolutely nec
essary. Thoy Shelley,
School Supt.
