HIGH SCHOOL COMMENCEMENT.
The Class of '95 Entertain the People of
Heppner at The Opera House a buccess.
"Hitch Your Wagon to a Star."
The above beautilul and expressive
motto of the graduating High School
class of 1895 formed an attractive part
of tbe decorations at the opera honse
last Friday evening. Attached to a star
of considerable magnitude were ribbons
representing tbe class colors, these
leading to a miniature wagon bearing a
burden of flower-). It is a motto full of
meaning, aud its seleotion shows the
spirit of the young ladies composing the
ola88 of '95. In addition to this, the
Atnerioan flag formed au expressive
background, while the stage was replete
with bunting, representing the olass
oolors, besides flowers innumerable.
Tho invooation was delivered by Rev.
J. M. Denison, then followed tbe pro
gram as published, dosing with the
benediction by Rev. Frank Adkins.
Miss Maggie E. Adkins bandlel ber
subject, 'Tickeis Please," in Bn ad
mirable mauner. Miss Adkins appeared
much at ease on tbe stage and won the
plaudits of tbe audience.
Miss Lillian M. Bisbee's subject was
"Room-matism; A Medical Treatiso."
She had full oonfldenoe in herself and
appeared well, receiving liberal ap
plause. Toe subject, "Parallelism of Russia
and America," was presented by Miss
Mabel Leezer in dear, distinct tones
and in a most attractive style. Judging
from tbe manner of tbe audience it was
much appreciated
Miss Elsie E. Laoy delivered the
"Class Prophecy." It was full of
humorous sallies on her classmates, but
ended in a serious, prophetio vein that
tbey would all meet in tbe other world, j
Miss Lucy acquitted herself very credit
ably, in the opinion of tbe Gazette
reporter, which oninion was liberally
shared by tbe audience .
Miss Anne MoHaley.'the valedictorian
of the olnsnj proved that she was an
orator of considerable ability. Her
remarks were accompanied by easy,
becoming gestures, and in all she ac
quitted herself most oreditably.
If time and space permitted, there
are not enough good things that the
Gazette might say for tbe exercises.
The instrumental music was good, very
good. Congressman Ellis presented
the diplomas in a few fitting words,
preoeded by some general remarks in
wbioh he noted the fact that tbe gradu
ating olass contained not one young
man, wbioh fact be deplored. And it
flitted through the bead of tbe Ga
zette's reporter that while some of our
young men bad been negligent in taking
advantage of theopportunities presented
for an education, it is to be regretted all
the more from the fact that it will be
some years before there is another
graduating clasa in the Heppner schools,
though it is presumed that tbe instruc
tion win oe or (tie Deal so tar aa it goes.
rrof. A. W. Wier'a parting words to
the class were full of kindly ad v ioe, and
do doubt tbe thoughts of more than one
of the graduating olasa went back over
tbe scenes and incidents of tbe class
room, presided over by their venerable
preceptor, jow forever closed to them.
Tbe end of this school year will
probably oonclude Prof. Wier'a oon
neolion with the Heppner sohools. He
uaa iHDoreu diligently Tor fonr years in
tbia field, and bs elT rts bave Dot been
unavailing, as bia pupils will testify,
provided tbey bave dun diligeuce tbem
selves. Tbe aame Ooinidiment can be
paid to bia valuable assistants. Tbe
school ia Dow at a high standard, and
it ia much regretted that the present
coarse of instruction oauuot be con
tinaed.

CHINESE DINING-OUT GIRLS.
They Are Employed to Amuse Men at
Dloaers.
When, for instance, a Chinese gentle
man intends giving a dinner to three
friends he will arrange for it to be pro
vided on a flower boat at a certain
hour, and also for the company of eight
dining-out girls two for each gentle
man, says a writer in Century. I
call them dining-out girls, as it best de
scribes to me their calling. They will
come prettily dressed, their hair done
up in most wonderful shapes and
brushed over with a sort of varnish
which makes it appear like a fantastic
head-dress, carved in ebony. They will
ornament this structure with bright
flowers, though the wreaths will be as
stiff as their hair; or they will some
times add jade, gold or feather-inlaid
ornaments. Their faces will be painted
in white and pink very artistically
painted, smooth and soft-looking, de
licately traced; sharp black crescents
will mark their eyebrows. Dainty, de
mure dolls they will appear and pretty
to look upon; but seemingly one touch
would destroy their artistic effects, as a
rough hand the radiance of a butter
fly's wing.
Two of these young ladies will at
tend to each gentleman, sitting slightly
back from the table at each side of the
entertained. They will fill his liquor
cups, sip from them and pass them on;
pick out dainty pieces of "chow" (food)
with chopsticks and hand them to him;
crack jokes, fill and light his pipe and
all the while chat gayly and cat dried
watermelon seeds. That is all I ever
saw them eat. Behind each group ol
three a solemn-looking coolie, or waiter,
will stand to fan them all the while.
Other waiters bring in food, wine and
tea, change the dishes and attend to
their wants. The meal will last for a
long time. Eventually all will rise and
retire to an outer room furnished with
broad couches covered with matting.
Opium pipes will be there for those
who care for them and tobacco and
cigars in plenty. The girls will sio on
the couches, laugh, fill the pipes and
still eat watermelon seeds, while the
gentlemen will recline at their ease, en
joying their society.
CHECKING LABOR AGITATORS.
The Plan Followed Daring the Building
of a Mexican Railroad.
"They had an original and effective
way of preventing strikes on the Sono
ra railroad while it was building," said
its first superintendent, according to
the New York Sun. "The Mexican
peons were queer laborers to deal with,
and there were habitual kickers and
agitators among them to stir up discon
tent, like those we find in other more
enlightened regions where great works
are carried on. Tho Mexican govern
ment, standing as a bueker of the road,
was of course interested that nothing
should interfere with its progress, and
so when it was discovered that a man
was stirring up trouble among his fel
low laborers he was disposed of in a
way peculiar to the country. '
"Some men were detailed to get him
drunk no difficult task when liquor
was furnished free and he would wake
up in the morning to find himself in
military barracks and to be informed
that he was an enlisted soldier in the
army. All the formalities had duly
been gone through with, and he was
kept in seclusion in tho barracks until
ho was transferred to some remote part
of the republic. He was enlisted under
an assumed name, so thnt when his
friends camo to the barracks to inquire
after him by name they were informed
that there was no such man there. If
they doubted the statement there were
the rolls, which they might inspect. As
tho Mexican soldier is virtually a pris
oner, and the army is made up to a con
siderable extent of criminals pardoned
under condition of enlisting, no com
ment would be excited by the keeping
of a new recruit in confinement, mid,
off in Yucatan or Tabasco, his friends
would not hear of him again, at least
during the building of the road."
