William p. F. Ferguson, editor OF

WH|SKER TRIMS
GROW EXPENSIVE
BARRIERS and BootbIaeks Raise Scale of
Prices-DecIare Move Made to
Meet the Increased Cost
of Living

1t costs money to get shine in Los
Angeles. 1t also costs to get a hair
cut or shave. Tuesday morning when
the average business man mounted to
his favorite seat In his favorite shin
ing parlor he was little surprised to
see a small blue tin sign hanging above
his head which announced that this is
a union shop"
Joined the union, hey?" he said in
pleasant tones.
yep; costs 10 cents now for a shine.'
was the response.
Ten cents is now the price of a shine
in Los Angeles and no more will the
dusky-skinned bootblacks eagerly
clutch for the shining nickle. One
hundred mills is the figure, no matter
what the size is, and woe betide the
bootblack who is found cutting the
price, no matter how dear the friend.
The bootblacks are not the only ones
to raise the price, for today is the
last day Of the 10-cent shave and the
two-bit hair cut in Los Angeles. Fif-
teen cents will in the future be the
price Of a whisker trim and 35 cents
for hair cut.
Yesterday the proprietors of all the
downtown barber shops-those between
the Temple block and Seventh street
and between Hill and Main, met In SOL

years." writes N. A. Adams, Henrietta.

case was hopeless, his lungs being
affected. We then employed other doc
tors, but no benefit resulted. BY chance

During discussions I had with sew
eral of the engineers it was brought to
my notice that before the canal is
completed there will be several changes
in the plans. At present the engineers
are following plans which call for the
canal to be dug eighty-five feet above
sea level. 1t was the intention to have
a series of locks and thus bring ves-
sells down to sea level at the entrance
ways. According to the engineers be-
fore the canal is completed these plans
will be changed and the canal dug to
sea level. This will cost a great deal
more money and it will take some
longer time to dig the canal, but those
in charge feel the work will be a great
deal more satisfactory If this change
in plans is made.
"One of the principal things I
studied there is inf regard to the
women, who have been taken there in
large numbers from the United States.
l found number of young girls who
were nothing else but slaves and could
not leave If they wished.
Il talked to one woman, the pro-
prietress of a large house of i'll fame.
She showed me two American girls she
had taken there from this country.
She had paid small debt the girls
owed before taking them, and thus
gained their control She charged the
girls up with this debt and the Panama
government holds them responsible.
They cannot leave without settling
the debt and that they will never get
sufficient money ahead to do Many
of these women are afflicted with the
most loathsome diseases, and according
to surgeon I spoke to there more
than 900 young men who went to that
country to work on the canal are SINH
larly afflicted at the present time.

SPIRITUAL development
Interesting Discourse Rendered
at the Episcopal Church
Last Sunday Morning

Services were held in st. James Epis-
copal Church in Eureka last Sunday by
Rev. Lloyd b. Thomas. His topic IN
the morning was the need for more at
tention to the spiritual development of
the child. The following is a summary
Of the ermon
All that we know about the life Of
Jesus Of Nazareth between his 18th
and Both years is contained in the
verse "And Jesus increased in wisdom
and stature. and in favor with God and
man." That signifies a threefold devel.
opment, physical, mental and spiritual.
For what is growth in favor with God
and man but development Of character,
of soul
We Of to-day are liable to forget this
last element in child life. The State. to
a degree, supervises the physical aud
mental growth Of u children. Wise
ly, however. it leaves the soul-develop-
ment to the oversight Of the Church
aud the parents. The home is the
natural place for character building.
But let us ask, caddidly, how much
effort we are making to give the chill
dren a sound, sane basis for spiritual
life, to enable them to meet and resist
the temptations which come to them in
every community?
Horace Bushnell. in his book Chris
tian Nurture" published rs years ago,
laid down the following principle for
religious education "That a child
should be taught that he is a Son of
God, and should never know himself to
be anything else." What right have
we Caristain people TO make a child
feel any other way? 1t is his birth
right. which only he cal sell, If he will,
for some miserable mess of pottage, as
harmful pleasures. dishonesty acquired
money, and so on. This principle must
be at the root Of religious training, IN
Sunday School aud in the home. Sunday
Schools must adopt modern methods OF
teaching children. as day schools are
doing. The home. however, must be
the source Of religious instruction. 1t
must be a place where the names OF
God and Of Jesus Christ are familiar
sounds, the Bible a much used book and
prayer a familiar custom. Then our
children will increase in favor with
God and man as well as in wisdom aud
stature.

Peace Officer Ford Retirss

Joseph Ford, who has been a deputv
constable and acting deputy sheriff in
Eureka for several months, has decided
to retire from the work Of a a officer
and devote his attention to some mining
interests which he owns In this district.
Mr.. Ford has been one Of the most eff.
ficient and capable peace officers that
Eureka has known for some time, aud
his retirement will be looked upon with
regret by those Of our citizens who are
DESTROYS Of seeing the law equitably en-
forced for all. and a high standard of
good order maintained. However, there
arc doubtless some people in the town
who will be pleased to see Mr.. Ford re-
tire from this work. since he has insisted
from the first that the laws shall be rig.
idly enforced for all, aud not stretched
in favor Of those who are DESTROYS of
being overlooked when they break the
plain laws as stated in the statutes of
the State of Nevada.

EUREKA SCHOOL NOTES
Valentines to Be Placed on
Sale by the Teachers on
Saturday, Feb. 3
By the Teachers

The attendance in all departments
has been the best during the past week
thai it has been since the Winter be-
gun. This is very gratifying to the
teachers.
At the meeting of the teachers last
Friday il was decided to abandon the
dance which was to have been given on
the night Of Feb. IA. on account Of the
play to be put on by the Dramatic Club
on the Sth. 1t is thought unwise to as.
sumo the expense at this time when 80
many entertainments and dances are
being given hat it is unlikely all will
yield a profit. AS the matter now
stands. the teachers will give a dance
on the night of April 1 for the purpose
of making up the deficit in the piano
fund.
A very fine assortment Of valentines
has been ordered. and will be placed on
sale by the teachers Saturday afternoon,
Feb. 3. at Lew Rogers office on Main
street. Orders are coming in from some
of the teachers in the other school dis.
tricts of the county for a goodly num-
Der of valentines, thereby showing a

room, the occasion being a visit from
Rev. Lloyd B. Thomas. After singing
"a few favorite songs, Mr.. Thomas gave
a short talk his subject being "Educa-
ton, the Tool with which Life's Work
is Done" Such a talk cannot fail to
touch a responding chord in some life.
Occupying, as we do. a somewhat iso-
lated position, WI are deprived of hear
ing many good spsakers-naturally this
tends to narrowness and lack Of school
spirit, which we are trying to awaken.
