side in Townsend.
The early closing movement, during
July and August, at 6o'clock in the even
ing, is being agitated in our town, with
what success we are unable to learn, ex-
cept in the case Of Mr. j B. Messick, who
adrertises, as is his custom those two
months to close at that hour
The following resolution were passed at
a general meeting of the Delaware Auto
mobile Association, held on June 4th,
1906, at Wilmington: " "Resolred, That this
association condemn without reserve the
action of those automobilists who fright
ened the mules of the colored man, Rob-
ert Jones, recently at Middletown, Del,
for their conduct in failing to stop and
render such assistance as was necessary to
those injured in the accident.
At4.03 o'clock Friday morning summer
began-that is according to the almanac.
At that hour the sun was at its highest
point north and the day was the longest
Of the year. But to the weather man the
calculations of the astronomer as to the
changes of the seasons indicate nothing.
To the statement that summer begins on
june 22d he is inclined to say, ''Tut,
tut Concerning the seasons there is
wide gulf between the stargazer and the
man who reads the thermometer and the
barometer.

paper has an influence for good that is
hard to oyerestimate. In many cases, it
moulds public opinion it does well its
part in protecting and preserving the

morality, truth and power, it brings many
rich blessings to the homes it visits with |
but little financial reward for its labors, |
and in too many instances not any. The

THE STAGE KISS.
II Tests the Genius Of the Actor and
the ActFesa

II Tests the Genius OF the Actor and
the Actress.
The stage kiss Is important. There
Is nothing which so tests the genius of
an actor and an actress as the ability
under just such circumstances to pro.
duce the illusion OF love. On the stage
1t Is necessary for them 10 forget their
own personalities, 10 smother their
own feelings, one for the other, and In
the place Of the warped though genu-
Inc kiss we see at the railroad station
and the steamship wharf present to
our eyes by the magic Of their acting
highly artificial product.
And this highly artificial product, be-
cause 1t is art and because 1t is pro-
duced by art, lmpresses us as real and
genuine where the actually real and
genuine would have filed US only with
derisiou and contempt, Just as real
tears on the stage would fail to move
us. Indeed, the best stage kisses, the
kisses that are most convincing In the
way OF realism, are usually given and
received by actors and actresses whose
feeling for each other In private life Is,
to say the least, Indifferent. Frequent
~, IL audiences only knew, they watch
loyemaking on the stage between men
and women who are literally at dag
gers points with each other.
would not so so far as to say that
such state 81 feeling always contrib
utes to good stage lovemaking and to
realistic stage kissing, but do know
that 1t Is an automatic truth, recog-
nized by theatrical managers every
where, not to engage piayfoik lovers
to enact similar roles In q drama II 1t
b at all possible to get any one eise.--

Rich Strike Near Joseph

superintendent Burt E. Smith of
the Tenderfoot, arrived in town Thurs
day and IS one of the most light
hearted and jovial men in town, which
is caused by strike of good paying
ore in the Tenderfoot at the 15O-foot
level
About two weeks ago work was
stopped on the shaft at a depth OF
about 200 feet and a cross-cut started
at the 150-foot level to tap the vein.
Work on the cross-cut progressed at
the rate of about three feet per day
and Wednesday when in about 80 feet
the lead was broken into.
Mr.. Smith estimates the vein to be
at least 25 feet wide, and is a good
grade of paying ore. No assay hav-
ing been made 1t is hard to estimate
the value, but 1t will give good values
in copper and silver and carries some
gold. While this ore is not expected
to go thousands of dollars to the ton
1t will give high enough values to net
a nice profit to the stockholders Of the
Tenderfoot.-Joseph Herald.

COULD SELL 10000, 900 BAGS.
Strong Demand for Product of Walla
Walla Jute Mill

So great has been the demand for
grain bags made at the state peniten-
tiary that the state could easily sell
100000 bags, while the product OF
the jute mill for the year will be be-
tween 1900, 900 and 1,75O,0O0 bags
says the walla walla Bulletin.
James H. Davis, member of the
state board of control, said the mill
is turning out about 5000 bags day
There is ready sale at $3.50 a 10O
bags, or 6h cents apiece, the price
fixed by the board, though the price
OF Calcutta bags Is today Q SIS cents
The bags made at the Walla walla
penitentiary are better than the Cal
cutta product, being firmer and gen.
orally a better made bag. All the
jute used is imported from Calcutta
$500 bales having been purchased
this year.
The board has estimates on ma.
chinery and will ask the Legislature
for authority to double the capacity
of the jute mill 1t is now operated
by electric power supplied by the
Northwestern Gas & Electric com.
pany. 1t is more satisfactory thar
steam power and effects a saving Of
about $3.50 a month.
About 200 men find employment il

state branch, American Federation OF
Labor, opened here today with a
large attendance and every organiza-
