KEN' WE LI, HE THOUGHT f IT WAS A FfUNK DISCO VER- ERING HIS MISTAKE, HE TUT A CATHARTIC IN, HIS HEELS. i ' To be fired upon and then upon fleeing, to bo pursued to the very door of his home by a highwayman, was the experience f Dr. J. J. Ken--well last night The hold-up occurred comparative ly early in the night and the scene was on South Winter street just be yond the race. Dr: Kenwe'l was on his way home and. was startled by having some one ft-' close to his feet. Believing It to be 'he work of some wreckless youngster, the doctor started to reprove hlm at 'the same time pursuing his homeward course. The response was . "hands up," and then the doctor fled. The highway man did not Are again but gave chase and did not abandon It until the doc ' tor had reached his home at 746 Mill street. , The highwayman answers the de scription of the one who on the pre vious night held up two other resi dents of the city. $1.50 for Sweet Charity. Ai Joe's friends passed by, took one oo V at hlg bland, Innocent, cheerful sin lllog countenance, their hands Involun tarily went down Into their ians and came back with quarters In stead of nlckles which went In to a different "kettle" than many of .helr fellow quarters. The tlntlnamfcula tion of the bell, which, under Joe's manipulation, sounded like ttia on a frisky lamb gambling his last (-quarter, or all four quarters, on the green, was irresistable. o The Strand Attains Its Majority. When, towards the close of 1890, the late Sir George Newnes launtched Into the world what has now become amongst the oldest of the Illustrated monthlies, he wrote modestly-,, yet confidently on Its first page: "It is-believed that The Strand Magazine will soon occupy a position which will Justify its existence." That these words were not vain a review of what "The Strand has ac complished in Its 21 years, the vast amount of entertainment, It has fur nished, the many characters, real and fictitious, first Introduced to the world in Its pages, the praise It has won from eminent persons, the esti mation In which through 42 vol -uraes It has been held by the publ ic in Britain and America, sultcL ently prove. , It was read each month front over to cover by characters so diverse as the late Queen Victoria and Cardinal Manning. A great traveller, Sir liar ray Johnston, declared that he found It had penetrated into the mos-t re- GLEE CLUB TO BE HERE The members of the University of Oregon Glee Club returned home Sat urday from their trip south much en thused over the reception they had received from the people of Roseburg, Medford, Ashland, and Grants Pass. The papers of these towns heralded them as the best trop of college boys west of the Mississippi. The three skits which the Glee Club has on Its program this year of a vaudeville nature, made the enter tainment offered both entertaining to music lovers and - to those not in clined towards an overdose of tune. Harry Ding, the full blooded Chinese boy, -with a goo American base voice was another of the features which took well with the people of Southern Oregon. Next Saturday evening; the Glee iClub will give the last concert of their tour, Salem being the sixteenth city in which they bave given their entertainment. They will be seen at the Grand Opera house. .

The one thing mare tutsan all others that has a Iftradfncy to make laundries in popular In the mind of th public, Ig the fact that It has been necessary to osm an artiticlal bleach on ffbditt froods, generally a llrswie bleach which was mCDit or less destmcthe In Its-B tendencies.

STAYED TILL PERFORMANCE VAS OVER Tho glee club of the Willamette university appeared before the con vict at the Oregon penitentiary Wednesday evening with a Bplendld program, and the audience its ap preciation by a hearty encore for every number. Perry Retgleman made quite a hit with his funny stunts, and put the audience In the best of humor, and. Incidentally, made quite a reputation tor himself as a comedian, Mrs, Mendenhall sang In her usual splendid manner, and each, number given by the collegians showvd fine training. . This performance Ig the beginning of a number which the club will give in the near future, In fact they will be gone during the entire two weeka of the Christmas- holidays, and will appear In many of the leading cities of Washington and Oregon. Their greatest hope is that they will moet with as responsive, audiences as that of last evening, o , i JOE UtlDERWOOD DOES A STUtIT FOR CHARITY Joe Underwood, the ubiquitous peripatetic Itinerant and smillnR. eall-for-you-nnywhlere man, presi dent, general managor and chauffeur of the West Salem Transfer Co., did a new stunt yesterday. Just because aome one was foolish enough tc think Joe did not have the nerve to do it. He took cliarge of the bell of the little Salvation Army lassie, who Is ringing up donations for the needy, and tinkled it for 10 minutes, and he did it so successfully that in a short time he bad gathered in mote parts of the world. Queen Mar gherita of Italy has said that it was the only English periodical she read; and Mr. Swlneburne once appLdcd to this magazine the happy pun, "'Lltus deleetablle . semper 'The everr de lightful Strand."

Decided December 12, 1911. Tlie William Hanley Company, a private corporation, appellant, v. J. B. Combs; respondent Appeal from Grant county. Hon. Geo. E. Davis, Judge, Argued and submitted Novem ber 3, 1911. Penditon term. M. D. Clifford (Clifford & Correll on brief) for appellant A A. Smith (Cattanach and Wood on brief) for respondent. McESride, j. Reversed, and new trial ordered. This Is an action to recover (3300 advanced by plaintiff on an executory contract for the ea'e of cattle. The case was before this court upon a pre vious appeal and Is reported in 48 Or. 409. A full statement of the Issues Is prefixed to that opinion, and no fur ther statement Is neecessry. 'McBrlde, J. The evidence dots not show nor tend to show any abandon meat of the contract by Hanley, plain tiff's agent. Comb? as to present to Hanley at Bear valley 600 head of stee rs of the kind and quality described In the contract He presented some thing over 600 head and a portion of these confessedly n't the proper age and quality, and when he and Hanley disagreed as to the number that come up to the standard of the contract, defendant declared the contract re scinded and proposed to keep all the money advanced. Before defendant could rescind the contract and keep the money advanced, he should have shown a disposition to substantially comply with the contract and have offered to comply by producing the required number of cattle for inspec tion, and passing. He admits that his actual damages were less than 500, and yet claims that because plaintiff's agent refused to pass more than 225 hoa.J of the 57S presented that he is entitled to rescind the contract and keep all the money advanced. " There Is nothing In the evidence which tends to show that Hanley In tended 1 to substantially abandon the contra. ct In fact, lr signified a Wil lingness to take 225 head, which he clalme d came lip to the contract stan dard, but defendant was determined that hoe should be . governed by the Judgm ent of himself and his hired Men aats to the quality of the stock. Under the circumstances defendant could mot rescind the contract without return Ing the money advanced. The motion for Judgment on the pleadlKng! came too late to avail plain tilt an -ythlng. As to the matters raised by the notion, the pleadings are In Us same condition now as they were on Ihoe first appeal, and If they are defective now they were defective then. 1 . " All -questions which could have been raised and ndludlcated on that appeal are re s adjudlcata: 3 Cyc. 398; Smith v. Seeattle, 20 Wash. 613; Smyth v. Neff, 123 111. 310; Pllworth v. Curtis, 139 llll. 508. The general principles of law ap plicable to this case are so well settled In the former able opinion of Mr. Jus tice Bsean that it Is. unnecessary to dis cuss thli case further. To permit the judgrrkent to stand would be a gross ln)ustzdce, and It is therefore reversed and x - new trial ordered. - p Work Will Soon Start after you take Dr. King's New Life Pills, and you'll quickly enjoy their tine Evesults.
