There's nothing in a name! f
How Inviting is the term fSweet

a -town through, which he must pass on
his homeward Journey i 'Tet that It
may.be. a' hollow' delusion and a snare

comforted; to retire early and to slum
ber late, that the next day might find
him refreshed for the long drive ahead.
But, alas! how fleeting, are hopes! ;
Himself and hishorses were gener

Enjoy himself! Oh ye tortures! ;
Well, the dignified visitor went ; io

bedlam with all its hideous noises
broke loose in front of the hotel, dis

This was rather a stumper for the

as an attraction for the State - Fair,
either on Salem Day, Wednesday, Sep

trying to make "arrangements to have
all the members of the drill team pres-
ent on that occasion, and show their
admirers Hn Salem, what means were
used in Portland, "to secure the victory
in the contest with the richest and
largest lodges of the Northwest.
Last evening the Elks' drill . team,

The protest of the Tacoma Elks, on
the awards made at the - parade on

matter was decided, in favor, of - the

hut night; is to the effect that a check
for $500 will be received tomorrow by
the treasurer of the Salem Elks. .
. The Portland Journal of Friday even

"Salem won the applause of those
who witnessed the grand carnival pa

complimented on their appearance and
the fact that they carried off the prize
because they did not decide to compete
In - the parade until about two weeks
ago, and as a result were compelled to
hasten preparations and- therefore not
come so fully equipped as desired! Still
they feel that their time Is well spent

(From Sunday's Dully.)
The da kn of the Creston, Washing

ed convict, has been allowed and paid
by Secretary of State F. I. Dunbar,
and this chapter in the history of the

jThe claim for the reward was made
by Maurice Smith, Charles A. Straub,
Joseph- Morrison. Frank LIHIngreen
and Ertle C La n tor. and was for the
full sum of $1500. for the capture and
return of the bandit. The warrant
was yesterday drawn In favor of the
five men. for the full amount of the
claim, and forwarded to the claimants.
The claims for expenses for returning
the body made by the same men, 'filed
some time before the $1500 claim was
presented, was disallowed by Secretary
of State F. l. Thinbar. Mi. Dunbar
disallowed those claims "for the rea
son that the claim of Maurice Smith
and others for the reward offered, for
the capture and return of th escaped
prisoner, Harry Tracy, was allowed and
paid today, was for the capture and re
