peat the amusing comedy, "The Milk

gram Wednesday night.
The heavy rainsof the past week have
revived the slough which flows through
the southern part of Dallas, and upon
which the Willamette Valley Lumber
Company depends to keep Its mill pond
replenished. Should the rainy period
continue unremitted for a few days
more, the water in the pond will soon
reach Its old level, and much of the
annoyance caused by the long drought
of the summer will be obviated.

to Dallas highly recommended by all
who had the privilege of hearing her

The open program of the Utopian
Literary Society, given at the College
Chapel, Wednesday evening, was very
successful and great credit is certainly
deserved by the young women who
took part in it, for the care and origi
nality shown in its preparation. The
short comedy, "The Milkmaids' Con
vention," which formed a part of the
evening's entertainment, was excel
lently played and evoked hearty
applause.
Miss Louise Collins, who ha3 been

painfully injured. She was taken to
the hospital at once, and when the
news-was received by her relatives in
Dallas, she was in no danger and
resting easily.
The Polk County Sunday School

and delegates from all parts of the

on the farm near Oak Grove ever since

T. A. Riggs, proprietor of the Mon
mouth skating rink, has arranged to
give a masked skating carnival Tues
day night, November 2G. His skating
rink, although not so large as tbe one
in this city, has an excellent floor, and
is well equipped with new skates.
Maskers are already planning todrive
over from Dallas, and it Salem, Inde
pendence and Rickreall respond to the
occasion with equally large parties
the floor will probably be crowded to
its full capacity.
This week has been the dullest one
that has passed in tho County Clerk's
office since the beginning of the holi
days. Only two deeds have been
recorded since Monday, although,
according to the real estate agents In
Dallas, there have been almost as
many changes in real estate as ever
before. It seems that the parties in
these transactions are putting off the
recording of the deeds until there
shall come a break In the monotonous
chain of legal holidays. When they
do begin to come in, however, it will
probably remind the workers in the
courthouse of the deluge, or something
of a similar nature.
Tne "city garage," as people have
been accustomed, whimsically, to call
It, was made ready Wednesday, and
the new road roller was run into it for
storage during the coming season of
wet weather. The half of the new
building not occupied by the big ma
chine, will be partitioned off and fitted
up to serve as the city jail. This will
be a decided improvement over the old
"calaboose," as it was so located in the
city hall that It was a difficult matter
to secure good ventilation and to keep
it clean. Also Inmates could, and often
did cause considerable annoyance to
visitors in the reading room, by giving
vent to all manner of coarse and ribald
language. The location and arrange
ment of the new city jail will obviate
all of these difficulties.
It is deliclously palatable, agrees
with the weakest stomach, contains
the most soothing, healing, strength
ening and curative elements. Makes
you well and happy. Hollister's

WILL TEACH DANCING
Professor C. Raymond Will Organize
Advanced and Beginners'
Classes In Dallas.
Professor C. Raymond, dancing
master, is in Dallas for the purpose of
organizing a class. He has just
returned from New York City, where
he visited his old home and attended
the Dancing Teachers' Institute,
which Is held every four years.
Professor Raymond says -that the
trip was of great benefit to him as a
teacher, as he met all of the leading
teachers of the United States and
learned all that is new In the graceful
art of dancing. He says that the new
three-step and also the half-step are
dances that are sure to prove popular,
and that they have come to stay along
with the waltz, two-step and schot
tische. He is anxious to form an
advanced class In these two new
dances, and a beginners' class in the
waltz and two-step.
The Professor is well known all
over this state, having taught in tho
valley towns for several years. He
conducted a dancing school in Cor
vallis for three years with great suc
cess. He will organize his classes In
Dallas as soon ashe can secure a hall,
and young people who are desirous of
learning more of the art of dancing,
should not overlook this excellent
opportunity to receive instruction in
all that is new and popular.
