TUCKER NOTES

4 = NfiN itiA Avn ~
Dear Editor: Possiblyyoa have
been wondering why you have not
seen my smiling face on the busy
streets Of Spanish Fork lately |
feel it duty to give reason for
my absence from my usual haunts
On the second Of July went to
Tucker via X. cav Ry. and spent
the lLh at w. II. Williams ranch
in Tie Fork canyon, surrounded by
pine clad hills; about twenty-five
neighbor and friends from Fucker
and Mill Fork gathered to spend
the day. Some of them took their
"chuck' along with them, which
with the hountifuI supply prepared
byMrs. Williams made a sumptuous
repast. The afternoon WAS spent
in games, singing patriotic songs,
and eating ice cream, nUi5 aud
candy, of which there was boun-
tiful supply In the evening my
daughter, Mrs, Powell, and | went
to Tucker with the Benedict fam
lily, where we saw IA fine display of
fireworks furnished by cur patriotic
postmaster, Mr. Mason.
While staying at Tie Fork my
grandson, Samuel Powell, went
with two men from Tucker over to
Strawberry on a 3-days fishing
trip, They returned with $50 fine
large trout besides what they eat
in camp. Mrs. Powell had half of
a lat mutton IN the house at the
time | Toasted on mutton and
trout until | felt pretty sheepish,
and was ashamed to look a trout
in the face
The asphalt mines up Tie Fork
canyon are making things quite
Lively. The boss of the mine, Mr..
| Gomar Reese, told me the output
of the mines is about % tons per
day, and they are getting more
mac hinely and expect soon to get
out so tons daily, He is paying
the men S2.75 per day and charge
IS cents for board, MIR Cobern
and VIM. 4. Williams have the
contract for hauling the ore from
the mines to Tucker, about seven
miles, they pay 50 80 per ton. An
average team hauls about two tons
at load, and some make TRIP
and half per day. The mines
are owned by Chicago parties.

SOME GOOD THINGS
COMING TO KEITH'S

Leila Taylor. the charming singing
comedienne, who at Keith's this week,
IS scoring a pronounced hit, has stun
ming stage presence, beautiful voice and
fetching personality that make friends
and admirers for her at once. She styles
herself simply a singer OF songs" but
this very simplicity appeals forcibly to
her listeners.
Bert Fitzgibbon will be at Keiths next
week with the Fitzgibbon, Mccoy trio.
There is not a funnier chap than Fitz-
gibbon. who seems to have such good
time himself when he is on the stage
that his manner IS quite infectious; and
his companions have TO keep a close watch
upon themselves TO refrain from laughing
at him during their act.
1t Is a long time since Eva Williams
and Jack Tucker were at Keiths: but
their absence has only deepened the favor
with which they are held here. Miss Will
liams has been dubbed 'The Duse of
Vaudeville" THE Margaret Anglin of
Vaudeville" and various other sobriquets;
but she Is one Of the most finished art
