Ond of the chief comedy evonts of the
caurrent season promises to be tho ap
proaching engagement of the widely
popular farce comedy "Have You Seen
Smith," which appears horo Monday
night. Thia attraction suddenly ac
quired a very important place among
the laugh-prodnoors last season, and
thia vear ia making a strong bid for the
top seat. It Is one of the few farces that
deals with humorous incidents of the
present day and introduces characters
with which one. constantly comes in
contact. The fantastical exploits of sev
eral peraanages lu tho course of the evo
lution of the farce cause untold amusing
complication?, and the disentanglement
affords rare opportunity for comical sit
uations and interesting tableaux. Inci
dental to the very palatable plot are
Introduced a perfect avnlaneheof bongs,
dances, marches and graceful envortinga
of every description. All- tho recent
novelties in tho line of music and mirth
iwill bo seen in "Have You Seen Smith,"
und to predict a rousing engagement
liero seems superfluous.

A merry crowd left here last evening
in Ward & Robertson's wagonette bound
!or Miss Mabel Riddell'e school, two
nilea east of Mosier. An enjoyable ride
ttf over two hours brought the party to
their destination, where a warm and
handsomely decorated school house and
t, cheery welcome awaited them
The entertainment bean pro rptly t
8 o'clock, consisting of songs by the six
teen pupils of the school, recitation?,
dialogues, and a violin solo by Mr.
Middleswart. Every number was; ad
mirably rendered nnd showed that great
care bad been exercised in tho prepara
tion. A delightful hour and a half was
spent in this manner, when the lunch
baskets of the visitors and pupils were
placed on the platform and sold at
auction for the benefit of a projected
school library, realizing the handsome
sum of $30.20. Superintendent Gilbert
made an interesting speech explanatory
of tho methods he was pursuing to place
a library within tho reach of every
school in the county. Tho disposal of
the contents of the lunch baskets closed
the entertainment and after the good
nights had been exchanged thn crowd
wended their way homeward by the
cheery light of an April moon.
Those present from Ttie Dalles were:
Miseea Mabel Cross. Mae Burnett, Edna
Barnett, Bertie Hurtle, Millie Sexton,

One day his son and his hired man
got to fighting on a stretch of tho farm
near the boundary fence, and the justice
of the peace rushed out and mounted
he fence. Then, with head cocked high
nod the air of one who has but to com
mand, be shouted: "In the name of
the state of Indiana I demand the pres
ervation of the peace!" Just then tho
fence gave way under hia weight, and as
he went down with the fence toppling
over to the Ohio side, he shouted to his
son: "Give him lil Jim. I have lost
