A. Wiiite & Sons were somewhat interested this morning when upon open ing their feed store for the day they found someone had hurled a brick thru ono of the windows facing tho alley and entered the building. The prowler had apparently not taken anything from the building, as all flour, grain, etc., seemed to have been undisturbed. Mr. White stated one or two smaller sacks of flour might have been taken with out them being able to notice it, how ever. The money till of the cash reg ister was left open for the night, con taining a half dollar in au envelope and two or three dozen pennies. It 'was not touched. The prowler left his muddy footprints on the grain bags over which he had climbed in entering and making his exit from the building. A dry-cell battery had been used to pound off the ragged-edges of the glass left in the window after the brick had been thrown through. The affair appeared as though it might have been the work of an amateur, or else the would-be burglar was frightened off before he had had time to go over the contents of the building. This is tho first time in the 27 years that tho firm has been in busi ness in the city that the building has been entered. Mr. John StulL of South Salem, who has been visiting relatives and friends in the San Joaquin valley California, after two months arrived home last night. :.f-ifji& A matts meeting will be held tomor row night in tho W.

The infant child that was left by the mother on the doorstep of a north Liberty street residence Monday night, has been adopted by Mr. and Mrs. Fred Stroebel, living ou Liberty street. A number of eiKitiiries were received i the citv were nresent to cxnress their Gale & Co. Commercial and Court Sis., formerly Chicago Store by the county matron, Mrs. Jackson, and at the Deaconess hospital where the child was taken for care, from those who were considering adopting the baby boy. o In the birth notice yesterday an nouncing the birth to Mr. and Mrs. Wm. E. Hinz, 1821 Center street, it was stat ed tho little new-comer was a boy. Doc tors ana nurses (and even the city po lice matron) lrtive been known to get things wrong in this respect sometimes and what can be expected of a report er? The said newcomer is not a boy at all, but a girl, a real, live seven-pound baby girl. The fire department has been aver aging between one and two ealls a day for the past several days. The depart ment was called out about 9:45 this morning to a small flue fire at 2385 north Front street. No damage was done. About 8 o'clock last evening the department also received a call to come somewhere in the vicinity of the rear of the White House restaurant. They responded immediately but on arrival could find no trace of a fire, the alarm evidently being a false one. . o The three Canadian officers, Major F. B. Edwards, Lieutenant Colonel Mac Millan and Captain E. G. Gook, took the high school by storm this morning when they made addresses to the stu dent body and teachers. Enthusiastic applause greeted their remarks, which pleased the officers nearly as much as did tho latter s words please the stu dents. The officers left on the 10 o'clock train for Marshfield. They ex pressed themselves as highly pleased with the reception and courtesy which they were shown while in the city and as appreciative of the patriotic sympa thy manifested on every side in the cause in which they are engaged which is the cause in which all are en gaged to win the war. Messrs. James Elvin, G. E. Halvor sen and Geo. J. Watson left this after noon for New York City where they will embark for France to be engaged in the war work of the army Y. M. C. A. A farewell luncheon was given yester- ni day at the Y. M. .C. A. to which a large milliner or menus ituu uusiut-as int-u ui regrets and best wishes. A number of impromptu speeches were made, among the speakers being Governor Withy conibe, Dr. R. N. Avison, Secretary Gingrich of the Y. M. C. A. President Staley and Rev. Carl H. Elliott. These men, who have quit their occupations and volunteered their services to their country, have the well wishes of the entire city to accompany them in their new work. , The demonstration of the Salem King Products company at the Roth grocery is attracting considerable attention. Samples of tho de-hydratcd products are shown as they come from the evaporat ing plant and then after they have been placed in water and assumed a normal state of freshness. Samples of the cook ed products are also served, which have a delicious odor and taste. Among the de-hydrated products which the com pany puts up are apples, apricots, black berries, cherries, loganberries, pears, peaches, prunes, raspberries, strawber ries, beets, carrots, cauliflower, cabbage onions, pumpkins, potatoes, parsnips, rhubarb, squash, stringless beans, sweet potatoes, sweet peas, turnips, boiled dinner vegetables, soup vegetables. o Some people's "hind sight" is bet ter than their "fore sight." However, here is a case where the foresight is good. City Recorder Race says: "I would like to see the Boy Scouts, the Y. M. C. A. and the advanced classes of tho various Sunday schools of the city organized to take care of the har vest this season. By organizing under one head, labor can be directed and utilized to the best advantage. We are going to be short of harvest help this season, and it will probably require the services of nil the men and women and children of the entire valley to harvest the fruit and berry crops this year. The smaller children , can help in much of the work. Now is the time to perfect the organization and get ready. Head quarters should be established some where." w The title of Eugene Walters' new drama has been changed from ' ' The Assassin" to "The Heritage". Cecil Kneighty and Lowell Sherman have the principal roles. P h EC TRIANGLE TODAY BELLE BENNETT MS GUINAN H I i FUEL OF LIFE & COMEDY WEEKLY Liberty t DIED .; MERRIFIELD.
