Die resolution was accompanied by a pe tition from the Equal Suffrage associa tion, asking the legislature to once more give the ladies an opportunity to wage contest and attempt to secure the right of franchise in Oregon. The petition was read, and a vote was taken, resulting in the adoption of the resolution.

The girl was not to be seen when the company first entered the house, and a vigorous search was at once instituted, the girl being finally located in the kitchen. She was told to get ready to leave the house, hut to this she demurred, sajing that she was not prop erly provided for and cared for at home. Mrs. Sears was accused by members of the party of holding the girl for immoral pnr[>oees, and the determination to re move her from the house was announced. Mrs. Sears vigorously denied this accusa tion. and stated further tha| the girl had come there of her own accord because of the alleged ill treatment at home. The company then marched away, taking the girl with them, hut before leaving they ordered Mrs. Sears and a Mrs. Darling, who is also etopping at the house, to leave town within 24 hours, stating that they would return the next day if the or der were not complied with.

The audience gathered at the Baptist church Tuesday evening to witness the Lincoln memorial exercises held under the auspices of Custer Relief Corps was not so large as it might have been had the “grip” not been so prevalent, neith er was the program as complete as the committee would have made it, owing to the same conditions. However, the numbers rendered were quite interesting and entertaining. First on the program was a prayer by Rev. Hunsaker, followed by “America” by the audience. Prof. Boardman then presented, in a twenty minutes talk, some of the noble attributes to the per fect life and character of the immortal Lincoln. After this the college glee club sang and responded to an encore. An instrumental duet was rendered by Mr. Roland and son, followed by a solo and encore by Miss Jennie Snyder, and a recitation by Miss Pearl Harris. Then followed a vocal duet by Mrs Asbury and Mrs. Talmage. Mrs. R. P. Ungerman read a few reminiscences from the life of Lincoln, and Miss Rose Trumbull favored the audience with an organ solo. This completed the program, and the meeting was dismissed with the bene diction. I Rubber Goods Heavy Winter Wear. Ç DIED.
