MISS TURNER'S FINE RECITAL
Young Woman Gives Excellent Series
of Dramatic Readings

Miss Lena Lorraine Turner last night
entertained an enthusiastic audience at
Simpson auditorium with a series OF
readings that, in range and in the
verve and charm that the young woman
threw into them, were entirely out of
the ordinary. She was assisted by the
Filharmonic Male quartet, fine organ
ization that Los Angeles has heard be-
fore.
Miss Turner is a young woman of
peculiar magnetism and charm; there
is a direct simplicity in her handling
of even the most tragic OF her themes
that makes it's appeal to the simplest
of her audience absolutely sure. In
the selection of her program last night
there was trying test for anyone's
versatility. The pieces ranged from the
child bits of such writer's as Riley and
Josephine Dodge Daskam to such n
dramatic tax as scenes from MeCar-
thy's IF l Were King In the lighter
vein, i'm the tender little grooming negro
bits and in the child poems the cleyo'

young woman was at her best. The
children in her audience seemed to see
themselves in her sprightly impersona-
tions and sat in their chairs in the
front rows watching her with a fas-
cinated bewilderment. That a real
young lady in fluffy white dress and
pink flowers in her hair should be able
to talk Just like u.s. and know just
what to talk about, seemed a marvel;
it was little less than that to the grown
UP part of the audience The story of
Cupid and Dicky'' was inimitably
| done-the tale OF young man of who
falls seriously in love with a miss OF
at dancing school, with disastrous re-
suits.
OF Miss Turner's serious work per-
Kanaka' made the most direct appeal
to the audience; there is something
very affecting in the young girls voice
when she rises to the climax of her
narrative and drops her tone a trifle;
it Is poignant and appealing. In the
rendering of the dramatic fragment
great discrimination was displayed; II
is a difficult thing to impersonate three
or four persons in dialogues and make
their personalities distinct to the
audience simply by changes in the
using of the voice; in her interpreta-
tion of the SLY villainy of Louis,
especially, did she rise to the lines and
make a dramatic reality of them.

Jewish synagogue, corner of Olive and
Temple streets, last night, the occasion
being the first dedication of a Zionist

flags, which were waved at the conclu-

WILLIAM
WOODLEY
DEATH

The William Woodley death contin-
lcs to attract attention, and every day
brings forth new developments. Wood
ley, or Wordley, as some appear to
think that his name was, died in the
Salem Hospital almost two weeks ago,
sud was buried by the generosity of
his friends.
That he had money was known to a
number of his acquaintances, but when
he was found in his room on Ferry and
High streets every evidence had been
removed from the room, hardly piece
of soiled clothing being left.
Woodley had an account at local
bank, and had other accounts due him
for the sale of liquor taken through le-
gal proceedings, but when he was
found in his room he did not have a
cent on his person, although it is a
well-known fact that shortly before he
went to bed he had at least one 80
gold piece with him, and that he did
not spend it is almost certain.
Woodley was a man who did not
spend his money, and he made good
wages, despite the fact that he was al
most 80 years of age. He was strong
and able to do all kinds of rough work
Very few men in Salem ever saw
''Bill, - as he was known, take drink
and he was never known to become in
toXicoted, although he was constantly
around the fiery demon.
Tnere are people who honestly Oe.
lieve that Woodley was killed by
means of some kind of dope, and that
certain residents of the Peppermint
Flat section are responsible for the
crime. IT Is said by a party who is
in position to know, that certain
woman. f"sident of that place at that
time, suffered an injury on the same
night that Woodley was found uncon-
sci,us aEd that she can tell how, when
anl whore he received the Knockout
drops that sent him to his grave.

would you have the Scandina-

chise them? Are they to be
blamed for wishing to exercise
their votes? Are they not an in

always looked On with a great
deal of pleasure at the interest
the Scandinavian people of North
Dakota and especially OF Ward
county, took in politics, and
have you ever noticed that the
majority OF Scandinavians are
always on the rightside, whether
winning or losing. You may be
certain that the Scandinaviars
of North Dakota willnever abuse
their privileges. Youneedn't fear
that the governor Of the state
will be deposed and some son OF
King Oscar appointed in his

most respect for every son OF
Norway and Sweden, who has

road are under construction in

over five hundred miles OF new
track. No single fact in the pro-
gress of North Dakota this year
more tellingly points to the in

perity Of the state than this. The
extension OF present lines and the
building of new lines means the
creation of many new towns, the
building incidental to this work,
erection Of elevators. settlement
of new lands, and one hundred

The Flaxton Times tells of
hundreds of farmers hauling
loads Of grain to the elevators
at Flaxton, but on account of
the shortage OF 500 cars. the
elevators were unable to buy the
grain and the farmers had to- re-
turn home with the loads of grain
and pile it on the ground. The
same state of affairs exists at
Bowbells and Portal. At Minot
the elevators have been able to
buy all the grain that has been
hauled here. As this is a more
central location, it is easy to get
cars and you will have no trouble
in unloading your grain here.

plenty Of money this year, they
should not forget the iavors that
the merchants did for them when
they carried them along over
rough places. There is nothing
more to be despised than in
gratitude. On the other hand
the merchants should not ex-
pect farmers to trade with them
unless they are treated fairly in
the way OF reasonable prices and

Some statistican has estimated

Some statistican has estimated
that the grain traffic for this year
will aggregate a million and a
half OF car loads, and that,if this
grain could be hauled in a,single
train Of freight cars, the train
would be nearly twelve thousand
miles long. When we consider
the equipment and men necessary
to handle this immense crop, it
will be seen how important is
agriculture as a factor in the
prosperity OF the country.
