RURAL CARRIERS To
ASK SALARY OF $3.50

Fifty delegates from all parts of
the state attended meeting of the
Illinois Rural Carriers association in
Belvidere Saturday night. The assoc
citation, which was organized n month
ago for the purpose of working for
better salaries. has extended all over
the state, and it's membership in
.cludes carriers from every county
which has rural delivery.
Vice President Deiouch, of Free
port, presided at the meeting. Every
delegate present testified that at the
present salary of $500 rural carriers
cannot afford TO live as well as la
borer receiving 81 per day. in asmuch
as they are compelled to keep two
horses to make the daily twenty-five
mile trips. 1t was asserted that
these horses cannot be kept for less
than $500 per year. The sentiment
was unanimous that nearly all rural
carriers in the state will be com
PEELED TO seek other employment un-
less congress gives relief. Many
delegates said they had been induced
to keep on with their delivery of mail
by the farmers, who donated grain
and provisions, and even purchased
clothing of them.
1t was decided TO appoint com
mittee to labor with both the house
and senate committees for more pay.
The association will ask for yearly
salary of $3.50.

Lost River" Joseph Arthur's new.
est pastoral melodrama. produced
last evening at the Illinois theatre
owes much of it's success TO the
Istrongly marked contrasting char.
acters of the play. which accentUate
and throw into high relief the pc
cularities of many of the smaller
characters, as in the case of Ezra
CooBus. the bus driver and leader
of the Hoosier "Orchestry," whose
broad comedy scenes produce roars
of laughter greatly due, perhaps. to
the gloom and viciousness of Bill
Loucks, a finely drawn but hideous
character. Bill is one of the men
who are reeking with the desire to be
bad, not so much because he has n
special grievance against any one,
but because he has a happier time
while surfeited with viciousness than
could be possible under any other
circumstances. Ora, the heroine, is
an artless, winning little country girl,
full of grit and desperately in love
with stalwart young New Yorker,
Bob Blessing-Paul Gilmore-far
above her in social station. But Bob,
fOrget1ul OF MS New OrK Iancee.
falls in love with the illiterate little
Hoosier and tells her SO. The pathOs
and tenderness of these love scenes
and the interspersed scenes of the
rural inhabitants, whose native wit
and humor are ludicrous in the eX-
treme, are strongly in contrast with
the thrilling scene in which the little
heroine mounts her wheel and riding
at full speed in pursuit of the would
be assassin of her lover, wounds him
and saves the Iatter's life. Another
highly sensational scene is the one in
which Ora, mounted on horseback,
is pursued by two highwaymen who
are fast overtaking her. The toll
gate through which she must pass is
closed, but the hero opens it Just
wide enough to let his sweetheart
ride through in safety, then closes it
and brings the robbers to a short stop
with a revolver pointed in their faces.
The house was filled TO its capacity,
being one of the largest as well as
most enthusiastic of the season thus
far.
