EVERYBODY WILL GET A COMIC. Owing to the rapid increase in circulation of the Sunday paper it is impossible to furnish every subscriber with a colored supplement this week. This is caused by the addition of the Sunday paper to the circulation of the Sunday Union and changing the name of the Sun day Union-Statesman. A tele graphic order was sent to the firm in the East which handles the comic supplements to in crease the usual number by over twt> thousand. They replied that they w'll be able to supply the order within four weeks, or pos sibly sooner. In the meantime the indulgence of the subscrib ers is asked. An effort will be made to let everybody have a comic as many times as possible during the coming four weeks, although all cannot be supplied on the same day. THE WEATHER.

FRANKLAND ADDITION TAKES BIG STRIDES GREATER WALLA WALLA COM- ING AND CANNOT BE SHAKEN AWAY George Brown of the Firm Frankland & Brown, Talks of New Resi- dence District. There is more of a movement in real estate in Walla Walla today than most people imagine. Many are wise and investigating with no chance of losing The greater Walla Walla is here and it cannot be shook off. To particular ize a reporter asked Mr. Ueorge Brown of the firm of Frankland & Brown how lots in Frankland addition were moving. Mr. Brown had one of those smiles that "Won't come off" when he replied: "We are more than pleased. We ex pected during the recent bad weather to have a slow sale, but to our great surprise the lots have been selling like hot cakes. Those who see the prop erty invariably buy, inasmuch as it Is potent at a glance that Frankland ad dition is the coming residence section surrounded as it is with the very best conditions. Our trees are now all planted and the streets are all in fine shape, excepting the leveling of one street on the west that will have to b<" rolled and shaped. Most of those buy ing up to the present have taken two lots. Those securing lots, too, are people who have made a success in every venture, among them being a party who has made considerable money in investments in Seattle and Spokane and may be safely called an expert in realty. This party pur chased three lots." IkILLIAMSON HAFFNER CO. rDEHVER.COLD. SUNDAY UNION-STATESMAN, WALLA WALLA, WASHINGTON, MARCH 7, 1909. COLLEGIANS SING I TO PACKED HOUSE GREAT SUCCESS FOR GLEE CLUB AT MILTON AND COLLEGE Singers This Year Are of High Standard —Careful Training by Following its success in the first concert of the season at Milton given Friday night, the Glee club of Whit man college sang last night at College Place, giving a repetition of the pro gram rendered the night before. A good house greeted the singers and the musical numbers were well rendered. The song "Bill of Pare," which was given as an encore in the second part was especially well received. Prof. A. C. Jackson rendered the "Toreador Song" in his usual pleasing manner, and Miss Hughena Thompson, reader, caused ripples of merriment to go over the audiene by her rendering of "The House With the Paint Worn Off," and "The Demonstrator." Every number on the program was encored. The Glee club this year is of higher standard than ever before, and the in dividual voices are better than the average Glee club singers. The work in the two concerts at Milton and Col lege Place showed the result of care ful training on the part of the direc tor, and the program numbers, se lected from such composers as Buck, DcKoven, and others of as high musi cal ability, are exceedingly well chosen. BEAUTIFUL BASKETS BRING SOME FABULOUS PRICES Delightful Social and Literary Evening He!d at May School House Near Waitsburg. A very successful basket social was held at the May school house near Waitsburg, Friday evening, Febru ary 26.

Following the literary part of the program a number of baskets beautiful to b?hold. and containing the delicacies peculiar to mountain regions were auctioned at fabulous prices, net ting tj the school district in round numbers, $60. This money will be used to buy articles needed to further equip the school building and assist the teacher in her work. As the ground was covered with snow several sleighing parties were formed among the younger set in their effort to reach their respective abodes. NEW TARGET PRACTICE LAND Troopers May Have Place on Wenaha Reserve. Permission has recently been granted by the United States forestry depart ment to the war deoartment that sol diers stationed at Fort Walla Walla may use about 640 acres of the Wen aha reserve, located near the toll gate as a field for target practice for this season. While the permit is issued for this season's practice only, it is thought probable that it will be made a per manent affair, in which case fencing and other improvements ara expected to be placed on the land. For a number of years the authori ties have recognized the need of dif ferent target grounds and the fact that the target practice was carried out as much as needed owing to the difficulty of reaching suitable grounds. No doubt the troopers will be surprised to learn of the change of plans for although not officially announced, it was generally understood that this season's practice would be held at Sil ver lake, in the western part of the state, and from that point the troops would ba sent to the A.-Y.-P.

Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. l>eafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by Catarrh, which is nothing but an in flamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of Deafness (caused by Catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall's Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars free. F. J. CHENEY Sl CO., Toledo, O.

A price so low that an Auto Buggy is <n reach of everybody. WK .. ,1' INTERNATIONAL AUTO BUGGY In designing the International Auto Buggy no attempt has been made to perfect a car that will equal the speed of high-powered automobiles over good roads and paved streets. It is not a car so lavishly furnished and high priced that it is a luxury. But it is a thoroughly dependable car that can be used for both business and pleasure—for every day service where mileage is money for the driver. It is built as nearly as possible like a buggy. This kind of vehicle has been serving country town and rural people for years, and there is no reason why a simple motor vehicle of this type cannot serve them in the future. This car is made particularly for rural salesmen, farmers, business and professional men, as well as country town residents who demand a car that is absolutely dependable in all conditions of road. It will go anywhere a team of roadsters can—up hills, over rough roads and through the mud. It has wonderful service ability and is adapted for either business of pleasure. It is the acme of simplici ty. Your wife or daughter can drive it and there will be no trouble from motor or tires. It will travel from 2to 20 miles per hour. And, it has, in addition to all this: Economy in its operation and lack of cost for repairs. It is the horseless vehicle of greatest worth. We give a demonstration to all in quirers. The local agency is exclusive with us. This machine has a carrying capacity with rear seat removed, of eight hundred pounds. T ierney-Toner Co. South Second Street.
