The blue book for this session of
the legislature will not be ready for
distribution before the middle of
September, according to information
given out by the bureau of labor and
statistics in Madison. The book is
compiled in that department and the
commissioner has been compelled to
have the material which formerly
went into the publication greatly cut
down to get it into one volume. The
book two years ago contained l,166
pages and an attempt is being made
this year to keep it within 1,20O pages.
The large increase in election Stats
tics and the census figures gathered
by the state in 1905, are the main
things to cause apprehension over the
yoluminousness of the record.

WILL REPORT REGULARLY
TO TELEPHONE OFFICE

Manager Campbell OF the local tele-
phone system has suggested to Mayor
Secly that II would be good thing to
have the night marshal report in per
son TO the chief operator at the teie-
phone Office at regular intervals dur
ing the hours he Is on duty. as in this
way he can be located at almost any
time of the night. The suggestion
commends itself To Mr.. Seely and II is
probable that It will be carried out as
proposed.
II would greatly increase the ef-
ficiency of the night marshal as a po-
lice ofiicer and. at tho same time.
would render his duties less onerous
and exacting than they are at present.
n the services OF the officer in ques-
tion were required in any part OF town
he could be summoned by telephone
or, at least. his whereabouts could b.
ascertained in that way Tho sugges-
ton is certainly an excellent one and
its adoption would vnstly add TO the
usefulness and availability of the night
marshal as a conservator OF tho public
peace and security.

The delineation of such a dramatic
classic here by SO talented an actor
as Mr.. Hanford, with all of it's accu-

were many people from Florence and

Too much cannot be said in praise
of Mr.. Hanford's portrayal of the char
acter of Marc Antony, in which role
he appeared. One is enabled to see,

of the Christian era, and of the dress
and equipment of her invincible arm

up at the beginning of the play, until
it came down at the close of the last
act, the audience was held spellbound
by the splendor and realism of the
scene, which enlisted the attention as
much by its forcefulness as by its
beauty.

very capable company here in the

for themselves a financial compe-

Few communities the size of Canon

asked by local bird lover what kind
they were killing they replied that
they were killing sparrows. They
thought, no doubt, the birds we're the
imported birds. But the English spar
rows do not dwell about the woods
outside of cities. They live near build
ings. The boys were, without doubt,
killing song sparrows. which are
among our sweetest singers and most
useful birds. Every year these birds
destroy uncounted numbers Of injuri-
GUS insects In our lowlands.
The English sparrows may be known
in this way: The male is rather a

choker or bib on his throat and chest;
the female is slightly smaller. and her

AMAN MOORE BUILDING A
CEMENT PLANT IN TEXAS

Aman Moore, until within a year
or so ago at the head of the cement
plant at Portland in this county, but
since then a resident of Ogden, Utah,
is shortly to begin the erection of a
big cement making plant at ElPaso,
Tex, for the Southwestern Portland
Cement company, of which he is one
of the incorporators and directors
Owing to conditions favorable to the
manufacture of cement at ElPaso, the
new company will be able to sell its
produce at 76 cents a barrel cheaper
than it can be bought for in Kansas,
and so cents barrel cheaper than the
price asked for the Colorado product.
The raw material of the company is
deposit of 900 acres of cement rock,
shale and limestone. Our chemists
have pronounced the analysis of the
different deposits as being perfect.
The building will be of fire proof
material and of structural steel with
the latest improved modern machin-
cry When completed it will be the
model cement plant in the world and
capable of manufacturing 1000 bar
rels of cement day. This quantity
of Portland cement is to be marketed
in New Mexico, Arizona, western Tex
as, northern Mexico, and the surplus
will go to southern California.
Within the last five or six years Mr..
Moore has built and put into operation,
besides the plant at Portland in this
county, large establishments for the
manufacture of cement in Utah and
Montana.

that it will continue its energy and
