THE WIRE
DIDN'T BREAK.
Taere was a large audience at the
opera house last night to see the idol
broken and also the pretty eirls in a
program of great variety, full of sur
prists, as advertised, rich costumes and
as snappy as a bunch oi fire crackers,
a geod many said the best yet in this
line of performances.
Miss Perle Bartu was the blight par
ticular star, singing with a fine voica,
ntuch ahead of the average comic opera
vocalist. Don MacMillan as Doc Whatt

Six girls blossomed from a dragon,
four came out of hot house plants,
and the balloon scene over the audience
was a very striking one, shown only
from the light in the little affair itself.
A pretty girl hovered directly over the
heads of eight of Albany's bachelors,
who arrived together, to wit: V. J. De
vine. Clyde Dannals, Fred Weather

Barrett. Harry Schlosser and Grandpa
Crawford, and everybody was hoping
the wire would break, so as to see
which cne would get her.
There was a continuous round of
laughter and lungs were well cleaned
out. ''
Sheehan and Shinn.
The Democrat in mentioning the
presence here of Jas, F. Sheehan, the
San Francisco lawyer, with Jas. A.
Hoag, spelled it Shinn, a popular Albany
name, the mistake being due to Mr.
Hoag's snappy way of pronouncing
Sheehan. If you want your eyes fixed
go to Dr. Shinn but it will take Shee
han to fix you up legally.

Carother's Amused.
It is sad, also amusing to see the
firess and the public of the land "Uzza"
ike, putting forth the hand to protect
Piatoism, because for. Thomas Alva
Edison, punctured the Platonic Bag,
that man has an immortal soul, and is
conscious in death, but error always
dies hard. The writer is glad that Mr.
Edison is not the only wise man that
has spoken out, King Solomon says
"but the dead know not anything"
Ecles. 9:5, also the Psalms 146:4 says
"His bieath goeth forth, he returneth

do fall, it only makes the doctrines of
the Bible fhine out the brighter, such
as the resurrection, soon coming of
Christ, and the restoration of a sin
cursed earth.

A Friend uf the Dog.
I notice the article on dogs in the
Democrat. Wo are not all a dogged
set, but lovers of dumb annimals, put
on the earth for the use of man. Why
not kick at the horse as well. The dog
has saved the Uvea of thousands of peo
ple in the far north and taken the mail
where other animals could not go.
When a man gets so selfish that he
thinks there is no room here for any
thing but himself he had better go to
the heathen country, the writer spoke
of, where there will be no kindnessess
expected of him. All the dumb crea
tures God put on the earth are at the
mercy of man, and I think that the
man who shows them no mercy has
little feeling for his fellow man, and a
savage man is worse than a savage dog,
for he is more intelligent and knows
right from wrong.
Yours for kindness to dumb animals.

An Example tor Albany.
Corvallis Gazette-Times:
Because he failed to make himself
scarce last night when so advised by
Chief Wells, a young hanger-on about
the opera house spent two hours in
jail, and paid a fine of $2.50 this morn
ing. The young sports are in the habit
of congregating on the sidewalk at the
stage door, and in various ways making
themselves obnoxious. Chief Wells has
determined to clean up this situation
and started his work last night. He
told the boys to leave but one young
fellow concluded that h would be very
deliberate. Wells was in earnest, so
took him over to the jail as stated.
The boy was finally released on five
dollar bail. This morning he pleaded
guilty and was assessed $2.50. The
next one caught will have to pay $10.
Chief Wells deserves commendation for
his activity in this respect.

Lebanon Criterion:
A petition was filed with tho city
recorder a few days ago on the franchise
recently granted to the Albany & Inter
urban Railway Co., asking that it bi
submitted to a vote of tho people at tho
general election to be held on Dec. 4,
1911. This will tie up the franchise uf
the proposed roid lor a year. One of
the leading objections to tho grunting
of the franchise on Second street is that
it runs on the street leading to both the
school buildings of the city, and it
would makeituangerous for thechiMren
on tht'ir way to and from school. Then
it patalleU the Southern Pacific lino and
thu people along thut street think that
it is giving thorn more than their share
of railroads. The eastern part of the
city wants the road, anil thors would
be no objection to it on Tnin! ritr3t.
