STAGE FRIGHT.
The Way Henry Miller Rendered q

In Toronto, almost my first appear

Earl of Shrewsbury in Amy Rob-

Swer to Queen Eliza beth's command,
Il charge thee, my Lord of Shrews-
bury, arrest that man." l was called
upon to reply, Whom does your

My perturbation over that line was
probably more serious than anything
in my subsequent career. What en-
phasis to give, what information to use.
what manner to assume, gave me
greater concern than | felt later over
an Interpretation of Hamlet. l repeat

first one word and then anCher, using
this infection and that, and getting

it at all on the opening night. The

FIGHT At ECONOMY
NOW BEING ARIEL
Frank DoWdy, Well Known
Resident, Charged With
Assault and Battery.
ELISHA GRAY PLAINTIFF.
DOWDY PLEAD GUILTY, BUT
PROSECUTOR JESSUP WAS NOT
WILLING TO ACCEPT THE PLEA
WITHOUT TESTIMONY.

Frank Dowdy, a we'll known resi-
dent of Economy, is on trial in the
city court on a charge of having COM
mitted assault and battery on Elisha
Gray, another well known resident of
Economy, a week ago last Saturday.
When Dowdy was arraigned in the
city court he plead guilty to the
charge but Prosecutor Jessup for the
state refused to accept the plea. He
said that the assault was particu-
larly vicious one and that he wanted
to have the court know all the Darti-
cularS in the case.
Dowdy secured Attorney w. A.
Bond to defend him. From the wit
nesses introduced by the state it ap-
pears that on the day the assault
took place Dowdy had been drinking.
Gray, in company with his son and
another man, stepped into Dowdy's
barn and Dowdy, calling them vile
names, ordered them out. They com
piled with the order. Dowdy walked
Gary. The two men clinched and in
the efforts of friends to separate
them Gray's shirt was torn off his
back A short time later Gray met
Dowdy in front of barber shop Gray
asked Dowdy why he had assaulted
him and Dowdy said that it was be-
cause Gray had called him a bad
name. Dowdy again struck Gray, one
witness alleging that he had on
"knucks" when he struck the blow.
and the two men clinched again. Gray
succeeded in landing telling blow
on Dowdy before they were separated.
The defense alleges that while the
second fight was in progress young
Gray struck Dowdy in the head with
rock. Dowdy bears an ugly wound
on his forehead.

Why PAPER Cuts.

Have you ever cut yourself with a
piece of paper? The edge of piece of
glazed paper looks much like that of a
knife under the microscope OF course
the little teeth have not the strength
of Steel but If the edge of the paper is
drawn swiftly over the finger without
much pressure that peculiar property of
matter called inertia comes into play.
and the tender teeth will cut the flesh
before they are broken. The same prop
erty it is which allows a candle to be
shot through a one inch plank or per-
mits a bullet to pass through a pane
of glass without SCATTERING it. leaving
only clean. round hole.-C. III. Claudy

Government Will Not Charge for water

WASHINGTON. May 3l.-The chief
forester directed the publication OF the
following statement today;
1.-THE farmers in the West have been
greatly alarmed in the last few weeks
6v the persistent circulation of "a re-
port TO the effect that the adlninlstra'
tion was preparing 10 make charge
for water derived from the National
forests and used for irrigation and
other general purposes. The report, 1T
appears, has not the slightest basis Of
fact -
People OF the sections of the West
where irrigation has been such an IN
portant factor in development were
naturally much concerned in the 1u-
mored charge for water coming from
the National forests. The interests OF
people concerned with forestry and IT.

steady flow OF most of the irrigating
streams is absolutely dependent ON the
preservation of the forest watersheds,

of Glenwood Springs. Colo, concerning
the rumored charge for water for lrri-
CATION, Forester PinchoC says shat he
does not believe that there ever should
he. or ever will be, n charge for water
for irrigation. The erroneous report
was founded on misrepresentation re-
gardihg the charges which electric
power companies are required TO pay for
use and occupancy of lands in the Ma
tional forests for reservoir purposes,
and is not N any sense a charge for
water The appropriation and use Of
water is regulated solely by the State
and the forest service has no jurisdic-
tion in the matter.
in the case of irrigation projects,
the forest service does not even charge
for the use of lands for reservoirs and
canals Hundreds of permits have been
issued by the forester to occupy and
use National forest lands for irriga-
tion reservoirs and condmts, and such
permits are ALWAYS granted free.
