THEATRE DOG CAME HOME.
Got. Stranded in Ogden, Utah, and
Walked Back to Butte.

From the Seattle Times.
Butte. Mont-"Uncle Dick Sutton, the
we'll known theatrical man OF this city,
has a dog that $500 wouldn't buy today.
Prince is of the Great Dane variety
and during all of the time that the Lulu
Sutton company was on the road the dog
Travelled with the car.
Four weeks ago the company left Os-
den for Butte. nen the start was made
the animal could not be found. Either
he had been stolen or had decided to To-
cate in tile Utah town. Respectfully the
members of the company gave him up as
lost But a day or two ago thin and
wabbly Great Dane dog turned up at the
Grand Opera house here, where the Lulu
Sutton company is playing. He stood on
the steps and feebly wagged his tail until
some one opened the door, and then care
fully picked his way into the building.
The employees of the house recognized him
as Prince at once, and he was soon the
center of an excited group. Without
doubt he had covered the entire distance
from Ogden to Butte on foot. He was
footsore and weary and fully thirty
pounds lighter than he was four weeks
ago He was trea ted to a feed the like

days., and nothing is now too good for

made in the winter, the greater part of
the way over deep snow. He had been
taken to Ogden IN the car, and hence was

to do a stunt of this kind. Several years

The Beauty Of Machinery.

From The Reader.
Certain people imagine that machinery
Is ugly uninteresting and disagreeable
Had they a finer and clearer vision they
would see that the ugliness is in the mis-
use of the machine by. incompetent or
careless men and women. The well made
and wen cared for machine has a beauty
of its own that comes of strength, sim
plieity, precision, truth and harmony
with the divine laws and control of the
universe. We may stand beside a giant
band saw while, with screaming clamor,
1t rips a huge log into materials for a
home. To the clear vision 1t Is luminous
with strange beauty, a beauty we are
only just beginning to understand. Its
brilliant blade flying with incredible speed
is making q rooftree to shelter happy
mother.
In another place we see machine
whose purring cutters are shaping beau
tfful white pine into mouldings of classic
form to, decorate a home-making mil
lion feet of nlolding, all alike. Perhaps
some sensitive soul cries: How dis
tressng so mechanical. so monotonous!
How sad 1t all isl' Dear soul! Creep

than one home have ,hand- holdings
and the; others none at all? The cutters
of this machine can and do accurately
produce the splendid curves designed by
the sculptors and the architects who
made Greek temples glorious. The ma
chine is missionary of the beautiful
bringing the bestsof art forms to every
home, so that even a door frame may
be altogether lovely. Machine holdings
are not ugly because cheap They are
beautiful and cheap.

ADVANCE PROPOSED
ON CAR MATERIAL
Price Controlled by the MiSSis-
Sippi Lumbermen
MILLS ARE SOLD FAR AHEAD
New Contracts Are Not Sought BY
Lumbermen, as They Prefer to
Wait for the Expected
Advances.
MILLS ARE SOLD FAR AHEAD


Hattiesburg, Miss, March 10.f-f Especially
An immediate advance of some 20 per cent
on quotations on car material of every
kind is in prospect, and there is strong
prospect that the whole list will be ad-
vanced by action of the yellow Pine Man
ufacturers' association. The list on ear
material is. controlled entirely by the
Mississippi Lumbermen's association, and
1t is probable that before this announce
ment gets before the public the price list
committee of that association will have
met and revised the quotations Core
lspondence having that end in view has
been going forward for several days. and
only the rush of business has prevented
the committee from meeting before this
time
THE present quotations on car mater
ial.i says T. NJ MeElreath. a member of
the quotations committee, ARE ridicu-
lously low as compared with the prices
which the mill men are demanding and
are getting. These quotations were made
early in the year at time, when the
market was advancing rapidly, and in ten
days after they were issued they were
obsolete"

Expresses Manufacturers Views.


The sentiments Of the manufacturers
are very well expressed by Mr.. L. Il.
Major, general manager for the Newman
Lumber company, the largest operators In
this section. who says:
1.-THE committee found that we were not
maintaining a trust in the wholesale and
manufacturing trade. and we could have
asked for nothing more straightforward
from the committee. The report is not
surprising in that respect since we ex-
peoted Just that verdict. We felt that
our trade organizations were legitimate
and beneficial, and it Is gratifying that
the legislators came to the same con-
clusion.
THE recommendations Of the commit
tee as to higher taxation of the lumber
trade need not cause any .uneasiness on
the part of the mill men. We have all
ways been willing to pay our reasonable
| part Of the taxes, and we have never
| had any serious reason to complain that
we were being overtaxed. except in pos
| sible isolated cases There Is no reason
| to fear that can see now, that we Will
| be overtaxed. and if our taves shall be
raised only in proportion with other in
| dustrics we will not complain. The. lum-

FUNERAL RANGE
Great Mining Properties on

That portion of the Funeral range
which is closely associated with Grape
vine range Is much in the limelight
just now.
The keane Wonder mine, which bor-
derS on Death Valley and runs up into
the canyon, and which was at one time
bonded Ia Cohen and DE Lamar, is
again bonded 70 the Patrick outfit.
This bond runs until February 10Th.
The mine has large tonnage OF ore in
sight. The veins are horizontal, con
sisting of bull quartz with a fair amount
ot free gold showing in places. In
parts the quartz lodges run high and
show values OF from Sl5 to $50 over
quite large areas. 1t is a free milling

Of feet OF work are in evidence.
