Irish Hearts of Old"
'tIrish Hearts of Old'' is purely origi-
nal Irish comedy drama. interspersed with
characteristic music and dancing.
Astounding in startling situations and
strong climaXes, the play presents happy
combination of humor and pathos, with
Just enough of the dramatic element to
awaken sentiment without working it up
to the agony point. In short, it is one of
the very few Irish comedy dramas which
will bear criticism and emerge with a
popular verdict of approval. Incidental to
the play, which is presented with new and
appropriate scenery and costumes, there
is a cataract of real water, which in the
third act materially hrightens the dra
matte effect of the scene in the Lovers
glen. New Orleans Picayune.

A livel;r little woman, with q pretty little
chin that was lively, too, has been fascinating
and defrauding the pious and staid people Of
old Windham county. Her heart grieved
over the condition Of the far away heather"
steadily, and she told every one she met just
what her sentiments were about the heather.
The heather must be clothed she said and
educated out of their benighted state and
the only way in which to do it was to carry
the gospel to them and inform them that
they had perishing souls. To carry the gos-
pei and that information would cost money,
she admitted, and eff Mr.. - would please
make small donation, she would carry the
money to the missionary folks in New York,
who would buy the gospel with it and ship it
promptly to India's coral strand and the
Congo basin"
Not man in Putnam, or in any other
place in the county tried to resist the mis-
sionary zeal that actuated the dimpled little
chin, and every man came right down with
spot cash. Elders, deacons, class leaders and
parishioners subscribed to the Heather
Fund" that the little woman carried in her
pocket, and the missionary's daily receipts
were from $40 to $50. She captivated the
entire masculine heart of Putnam, and the
good folks were thinking of having her give
lecture in the village churches on the 'out-
look for the missions In the Brahmaputra
and Puniab Fields" when the missionary
nigel suddenly disappeared. That is all, ex-
cept that some of the victims subsequently
wrote to the Bible house folks in New York,
whom she said she represented, and they
knew her not They added that they were
not pushing their missions into Congo terri
tory as yet"
The ladies of Windham county are very
glad that she has gone, for they fear if she
had tarried much longer she would have had
all the ready money the Winiham men pos

The Frisco and Santa Fe passenger
trains have been having some lively races
from Valley Center to the city. The tracks
are so near together quite an excitement is
created by the races. The Frisco is due
twenty minutes before the Santa Fe, but
sometimes the former is little behind
time, when race IS made. 1t is said the
Frisco usually takes the lead until they
reach their first crossing. They have three
stops to make while the Santa Fe has two.
which usually lets them in ahead with
their heavy train.

LEGISLATIVE NOTES.

There was a lively fight in the Assembly yes
teiday afternoon over the bill to create the
county of Glenn out of the northern half OF
Colusa county. The bill came back to the AS
sembly, with unanimous report in its favor,
from the Committee on Counties and County
Boundaries, and much interest was manifested
to find out its strength in the House A motion
to recommit demonstrated the fact that there
was majority of at least nine in favor OF, the
passage of the bill, but the subsequent proceed.
ings showed that among the opponents,of the
measure were some of the best parliamentarians
in the Assembly. Messrs. Briefly, Mathews and
Storke, all wen up in parliamentary, tactics,
used every endeavor TO get action on TIE bill de
layed. Pending the consideration of an am cad
ment offered by Mr.. Briefly to the first section
Mr. Storke moved to adjourn. Had the motion
prevailed the bill would have been doomed, as
ii would have gone into unfinished business
whence ID eoald not have been AIKEN up except
by a tw9-thirds vote. Mr.. Shanahan, the only
one of the friends OF the bill who developed any
great knowledge of parliamentary tastics. sue

RAILROAD Items

A new rate schedule will 20 into effect
on the 1st of next month between Califor-
MIA common points, and points in Utah.
As the result of meeting of freight agents
in Denver, rates for { tab points from Chi
csgo and the Missouri river were advanced.
This will necessitate a similar advance
from California points. San Francisco
merchants, however, still have a decided
advantage over those in the East so far as
Utah business is concerned The South
ern Pacific Company has always main
tanned The right to make rates for Califor-
mia lower than those for Missouri river
points.
The new schedule is as follows: First
class, 1925; second, 81 S5; third, 81 80:
fourth, 81. 30; fifth, 81 10 A class, 81 10:
B, 800; C, 77c.;. d, Csc; L, SIC The only
alteration is in the first two rates, which
were formerly g for the first class and
81 20 for the second. The rates from Kan
sas City or Omaha to Salt Lake CITY or
Ogden are $3.50 first class and 81 Is for
second! The new rates apply from Cali
fornia common points, to all trains from

Sherwood, who passing thought the
man was asleep, the team having
STOPPED by the roadside and the dead
man being sprawled naturally across

least indication of suffering or struggle.
Mr.. Sherwood came to the city about

Mr.. C's former home in East Fourth
street. The coroner and county
attorney decided that no inquest was
necessary.

nearly everybody. His wife and sew
eral children survive him.
