the committee feel greatly encouraged.
The subject was handled in a masterly
manner, and those who attended were
highly pleased with their evening's en

What u Man Can't Do.
A woman will broil a steak, says a
wise woman who knows, and see that
the coffee does not boil over, and watch
tne cat that sue does not stent the re
mainder of meut on th kitchen table,
and dress the youngest boy, and set the
table, and see to the roast, and stir the
oatmeal, and give the orders to the
butcher, and she can do it all at once
and not half try. Alan has done won
ders since he came before the public.
He has navigated the ocean, he has pen
etrated the mysteries of the starry heav
ens, he has harnessed the lightning and
made it pull street-cars and light the
great cities of the world. But ho cannot
find a spool of red thread in his wife's
workbaBket; he can't discover her pock
et in a dress hanging in the closet ; he
cannot bang out clothes and get them
on the line right end up. He cannot
hold clothespins in his mouth while he
is doing it,either. He cannot be polite
to somebody he bates. He cannot sit in
a rocking-chair without banging the
rockers in tho baseboard. He cannot
put the tidy on the sofa pillow right side
out. LaGrande Chronicle.
That's what he can't, brother, and
there are whole lole of things besides he
can't do. He can't talk his other half
ito a standstill with his mouth full of
hair pins, and not miss a note; or look
pretty and talk saucy with both hands
engaged in tying up his back hair. He
can't keep up a running conversation on
nine different subjects at once, and not
get them tangled or the pronouns mixed.
Ie can't put the baby's stockings on
Without getting the heel on top of the
foot, and he can't chew gum worth -a
cent. He can't kiss the pain from child
hood's hurts, or charm smiles into eyes
but a moment before filled with tears.
He can't wet-nurse the baby by first in
tentions, but has to fall back on his old
friend, the bottle. He can't be a down
sprouted angel, with a voice like falling
waters, one minute, and a full-fledged
devil of a bucking cayuse with the
breeching kicked off, the next. He
can't match colors in woolen and silk
goods, not to save his immortal soul.
He can't love his enemies to their faces,
and hate his friends behind their backs.
He can't hit the bargain counter, where
goods are selling for cost, and get twenty
five per cent discount without any back
talk. He can't dance all night in a pair
of tight sines, and emile like the face of
Nature in June, He can't look sweet
and pretty in a suit of clothes costing
six bits, and he can't do a hundred
thousand other things that the dainty,
dimitied, little darlings can do without
an effort.
But more than ail, ho can't get along
without the charming, cautankerousj
wheeedling, pifrring, lovable, kissable,
wrap-a-man-around-their-flngerabledod
gasted, measly little darlings, whose eyes
go through a fellow like an X ray, and
whose presence is as the scent of vio
lets in the breath of spring, She is
nature's grandest handiwork, God's last
and best sift direct from heaven, and
only kept from being an angel from as
sociation with man; She has a sphere
all her own that we can't enter in, and
we are deucedly glad we can't.

with any other pump on the market.
With this pump ono man can charge
the receptable and leave it to direct tho
spray just where it is wanted, and thus
withsutticient hose pass from treo to

THE DHLLES,
I tractions on tho road, will give an enter
tainment full of bright comedy, nice
music and side-splitting fun. Among a
large number of press notices, all in
praise of this attraction, we quote the
following from the Yakima Daily Times
of Marcli 25th :
"The Georgia Graduates, who greeted
a house full of amusement lovers at the
opera house on Saturday evening, gave
the people of this city the best, cleanest
and most entertaining minstrel show
ever given here. In facts, many who at
tended declared that it was tho best
I they had ever seen anywhere. The peo
ple who compose tho troupe are men
and women of refinement. Their
specialties, in which all appeared as
first-class artists, wero free from the
vulgar wit that so frequently j'ars the
sensibilities of. modest people. Their
singing was fine, being a combina
tion hard to beat. The comedy features
of the performance were unusually
catchy and mirth provoking. They
presented many happy innovations on
the old type of minstrelsy and, all
round, rendered a most enjoyable pro
gram. ,
This-splendid company will show
here at the Vogt, Tuesday evening, Jan.

TULE LAKE SWAMP LANDS.
Htuto Stunt Show Why Tlmy Hlioulil Not
lie Held for Cancellation.
Extending northeastward from the
Hot lake between La Grande and Union,
is a stretch of territory called "The
Tules." In it is au irregular tract of
about 1700 acres, designated on tho gov
ernment plats as "Tule lako." Govern
ment surveys were made in October,
1863, and at that time tho lake was
from two to six feet deep. Later on the
water in the lake receded, and a 1700
acre tract was claimed by the state
under the swamp-land act, while the
land surrounding was taken by the
state under the internal improvement
act.
Tho local land office officials have
just received a decision from tho com
missioner of the general land office that
at the time Tule lake was selected by
tho state it was in reality a lake, and
could not rightfully be claimed as
swamp land. With this decision sixty
days' time is given the state to show
why the land of Tulu lake should not be
held for cancellation, If the statu fails
to make such showing, the owners of
the lands adjoining will have the right
to claim extensions to their tracts to
the center of the lake,
What makes tho matter more compli
cated is the fact that after selecting the
tract as swamp land, the state sold the
same to individuals.
The land has since passed under a
mortgage to other parties, and more or
leap of the laud adjoining is under
mortgage to different, individuals and
companies,
