We gladly take back what we said in
yetterday'g i?fue coucenilng the admit
tance of lridiea to tho bowling contest to
morrow evening at the dub. The mis
take arose from a misunderstanding on
our part. However, wo might know
that the club members would not depart

may witness the garr.es between the
Illihees and our own club will be doubly
appreciated since they have been led to
think they wero to be debarred that
pleasure.

While most of our citizens look at the
poatoflico key question as an injustice,
yet aro making the best of it and paying
over their twenty cents, others seem in
clined to make as much needless trouble
aj possible, thus annoying the post
master and all concerned. The latter is
a foolish policy and can do no good, as
it takes us many howls as it took shouts
to move the walls of Jericho, to change
one jot or tittlo of the red tape rules of
tho department. If any kick is made,
let it be a combined one from the entire
community to headquarters, and at the
eamo time ask why people hero pay
more for postofllce boxes than In other
states.

One looking into the Eober faces of the
'Varsity students now would hardly
think that the thoughtful expression
seen there was but ono week ago sup
planted with the smile of hilarity.
The enrollment at the university is
larger than it lias been for two years
and it would be a surprise to no ono if
the hard work and mutual co-operation
of tho Btudents and faculty would next

Much enthusiasm was displayed at
the weekly assembly la9t Wednesday,
morning. A cast of Hosea, modeled
after Sargent's painting of the prophets,
and presented by Mr. Schwarzchild, of
Eugene, was formally accepted by a voto
of thanks. The student body then ex
tended to the state Inter-collegiato Y.
M. C. A. conference an invitation to
meet at tho university of Oregon at its
next annual session.
The greatest enthusiasm prevailed
when the president spoke of the uni
versity Glee Club and tho triumphs of
its recent tour. Prof. Condon arose
with a lesoliition of thanks which so
nearly voiced tho appreciation of the
faculty and student body that tho
adoption of tho resolution hi ought tho
assembly to its feet in a standing voto.

On tho editorial pago today wo pub
lish an nrtic'u regarding tho ever-present
beast known as tho drunken husband
and father, which just hits tho nail on
tho head, as tho Telegram always does.
Not alono in Portland, but in The
Dalles and every other community Is
the conlcmptiblo crealuro found, who
having taken upon himself the vows of
a husband and in after years becomes
the father of at least a dozen offspring,
Btands at tho bar and squanders away
his last cent and returns home(?)to
beat or slash them with a knifo, and
then turns them out upon the county
for industrious citizens, who tiave done
their duty by their own families, to
support.
As tho Telegram says, the law does
not seem to touch the cases of such con
templiblo curs. What care they if they
are placed in tho county jail for a few
months to sober up, whilo the county
supports their families, and lawyers are
doing nil in their power to obtain a
habeas corpus or some other means to
lighten their punishment, when the law
should bo making n "corpus" of tho
prisoner himself? In nine out of ten
cases they aro turned loose in the end at
any rato. Instead of being placed in
jail to idle away the time before their
trial takes place, some means should be
devised by which they ehould be at once
put at hard work and compelled to sup
port their families. But in place of that,
the public not only supports the family,
but bears the expense of long continued
trials in the endeavor to obtain'jwsd'ce.
But, although tho poor wife suffers
greatly at tho hands cf these brutes, it
must bo said that in moat cases she
proves that it would havo been better
for coming generations had she never
been born, or having come into the
world that she had never been respon
sible for tho being of those whom she
has caused to lead a miserable existence.
For instead of assisting in the deserved
punishment when the case comes up,
there isn't "a woman in it," bs ehe re
fuses to appear, while tho husband goes
scott free, and in a few weeks repays
her with another beating, wtiich she de
serves. The Telegram is right, the legislature
should" take the matter in hand and
mete out justice.

That great and beautiful drama, "Hu
man Hearts" will be presented at tho
Vogt Monday evening, Jan. 21st.
'Human Hearts," tho companion
play to, but entirely different from
"Shore Acres," is regarded as one of tho
best American stage productions ot the
past ten years. When any play by a
comparatively unknown author, first
merits uttcntlon enough to secure au
opening and then goes on to tho stage of
tho Fifth Avenue Theater, New York,
and confines one whole season without
cessation, it is a guarantee of its quali
fied power and its real merit as well, ns
tho Fifth Avfnuo Theater clientelo is
ono that will not tolerate even a toler
able good one for long. But let it bo in
moral clean, in its scuues and situations
not over drawn, and its character paint
ing and dialogue ti ue to nature in the
absolute, then let it bo enacted by only
the masters of the dramatic ni t, and all
New York will forsake tho house where

lighter charming opera and modern

It should, and undoubtedly will meet
