CARPENTERS TO
PULL OUT Of
ALLIANCE

BY an almost unanimous vote the
Carpenters union last night sew
cred membership with the Struc-
tural Building Trades alliance. The
action of the carpentrs was taken
as forecasted yesterday. This
move is considered likely to lead
to the dissolution of the local al
lance at an early date.
Members of the Carpenters
union who were seen today ex-
pressed their satisfaction with the
action taken, as they belieev it
will have a tendency to do away
with the petty chickering's and strife
that has been going on between
the local unions for several months
past. The carpenters say that
they want industrial peace and un.
interrupted employment and that
while they stand for a fair wage
scale they don't want to have work
on buildings tied up over a contro-
versy as to the kind of plumbing
being used or which union has the
right to do the cement work.
The Carpenters union has a To-
cal membership of over 700, and
this number constitutes nearly
half the total of the building trades
in this city. Officers of the union
say that they favor the organizing

TACOMA, Dec. 2a.-Through
Chairman Fairchilds the state in
vestigation committee has arranged
with the 0. r. e n. road to furnish
cars for use in hauling coal from
British Columbia to non-competi.
tive points to relieve suffering for
want of coal n eastern Washington.
Promises from west side coal mine
owners of increased output have
also been secured.
Fairchilds exonerates the operat-
ing department of the Northern Pa.
cific, claiming it is not to blame for
prevailing conditions in is territory,
although he charges that road has
been negligent in it's failure to keep
up with the country's industrial de.
velopment. Executive officers of
the company are censured for fail
ing to provide sufficient equipment
to handle the traffic.

he SAYS KEEP BUSY

Max Morris, secretary and treas
urer of the International Retail
Clerks association, expresses his
pleasure with the organizing of the
clerks in this city in a letter re-
ceived by George Cody today.
Mr.. Morris said in part that he
was delighted to hear of the splen-
did progress being made by the To-
cal clerks under the leadership of
Messrs. Cody and Organizer
Cooney. His only worry is about
the future, as he has learned from
experience that as soon as those
members and others who have
been active in organizing cease
their work in nearly every instance
the union has tendency to loose
ground, and he asked that the mem.
beers of the Clerks and other unions
lend every aid possible in building
up the local organization.

THE DAILY SHORT
STORY
THE KINGS ROMANCE.

John Augustus Brown, nerve
specialist, was studying cases of
insanity at the state asylum, not
because the superintendent wanted
him there, but because Brown had
a pull with the political boss. The
superintendent contented himself
with the warning to humor the pa.
TENTS, as should anything happen
because of Browns presence, the
papers would make a big scandal
Browns experiences the first two
days weer many and startling. He
had danced as the sultan of Sulu
been almost knocked out as Jim
Jeffries, and was about throttled
when he refused to become Carusc
and sing a ditty.
He was in a cowed state when he
saw a patient, a young and de
cidedly pretty girl, coming down
sidewalk. She was clearly per
turbed, and glanced nervously at
Brown. He had an inspiration
This was evidently the pretty girl
who imagined she was Queen
Cleopatra He decided to chance
it.
Good morning, queen" he said
as he bent in knot trying to i'm
itate an oriental salaam.
The girls eyes rolled and Brown
bowed lower than before. Then
came his vindication. "What wilt
thou, king?" said the girl.
you're a wise OWL" said Brown
to himself. Great Cleopatra, your
wishes are my commands"
Then walk after me-" command.
ed Cleopatra, and the march began.
She soon became more excited.
Had she been sane Brown would
have said she was lost and scared.
They came to long bridge over a
lake. In the middle Cleopatra
stopped.
lost love me, king?"
"Most devotedly," mumbled the
quaking Brown.
"Then jump" she cried, pointing
to the lake below.
Brown knew the water was not
deep, and fearing to anger the
queen, took the loap. Cleopatra
fed one way and Brown waded out
the other.
That night at dinner pretty
Agnes Conklin confessed to her
uncle, the asylum superintendent,
how she had disobeyed him and
strolled in the grounds alone. She
told of having met a patient who
had mistaken her for Cleopatra,
II humored him, uncle, till l got
lost. l had to get rid of him some
way, and l made him jump"
And just then the door opened
and in walked-Brown, the king
Agnes screamed and rushed to her
uncle.
OF course explanations were soon
made and both king and queen
finally saw the fun in each thinking
the other was crazy.
And that's why Brown, when he
wants to tease, sometimes calls his
wife Cleopatra.

CINEOGRAPH FIRE
TRAP TO CLOSE

The Cineograph theater will close
for good on New Years day, accord
ing to information given by Mana
ger Blakesley. The closing of this
house leaves but one vaudeville
house in the city-the Washington
but it is said the Columbia will
be given over to vaudeville at
some late date.
The closing of this play house
will remove what was regarded as
one Of the worst fire traps in the
city. The board of public works
has protested against inadequate
facilities for emptying the building,
but will make no further efforts to
enforce the law in view of the early
closing contemplated.

QUEEN OF THE 0PREA SEASON
ONCE A Yankee VILLAGE GIRL

NEW YORK, Dec. 22.-Artistic
life in America has never been
graced by such romantic figure
as that of Geraldine Farrar, the
Yankee village girl who, in her
cath year, is today the queen Of
the operate season.
Following her successful debut at
the Metropolitan opera house, New
York is now as madly excited over
this prima donna as Berlin was
mystified by her.
The unparalleled story of Gerald
inc Farrar's success dated from the
little village of Melrose, seven
miles from Boston, where she was
born the only daughter of Sidney
Farrar, baseball player, and his
charming and ambitious wife.
When she was no more than one
year of age she could carry a tune.
When three she could sing in a
beautifully modified tone, like a
child of 10. AT 10 Mrs. J. H. Long
took her in charge, and two years
later she was singing with remark
able facility from Italian operas.
She had a high, clear, soprano
voice.
This young girl, who bears the
medal of literature and art, bestow-
ed by the king of Sweden; a brooch
of diamonds presented by the
kaiser, who, with the empress of
Germany, added many other grac-
ious compliments to her skill and
personality; who has been the hon.
ored guest of royalty all over Eu-
rope-'she has lost nothing of the
simple manners acquired in the en-
vironment of the Yankee village of
her birth. She loves to laugh and
talk of things that have no bearing
upon her work. She INDUCES freely
in outdoor exercise and is an &C
complished equestrienne and a de-

ENDED HIS TROUBLES.
An Accused Man Commits Suicide in
Presence of Accusers.

St Petersburg, March 4.-During Il
meeting today of the Father Gapon or
ganization which was investigating the
scandal involving charges of accepting
money from the government, an accuse,
member dramatically committed suicide.
Withe the recent disappearance of Ma
tushcnSky, the assistant of Father Gapon
who was charged with embeZzling $500,
belonging to the workmen'S organizations
it was discovered that the moderate la
Dor organization which Gapon established
after the Russian Emperor's manifesto Of
Oct. 30 last, WAS subsidized by the gov
enment. which supplied funds for the
rent of club houses and for literature.
The revelation was made by the presi-
dent 70 the Putiloff section of the organ
ization, who complained that $4,000 of
the funds furnished through Former Min
lister of Commerce Timiriazeff had not
reached the treasury of the moderate
party.
When Matushensky was arrested at
Saratoff Feb. "a it was said that he would
be taken to st. Petersburg for trial and
that the proceedings against him were
expected to be sensational on account o.
his relations with Premier Witte and For
mer Minister of Commerce Timiriazeff
and other prominent persons
At a meeting today of 6OOO members of
the Industry and Commerce Association
resolution was unanimously passed that
Kussia's prosperity was dependent upon
the liberties granted on the imperial
manifesto OF Oct. 30 last. which must be
incorporated in the fundamental laws OF
the empire, and that the present pro
cedurc governing bodies are devoid of all
legality and cannot longer be tolerated
without the gravest menace to the coun-
try and the dynasty.
