widely read. and they have been made
into a thrilling play by Eugene PreSbrey.
The incident Of the Melrose diamond
necklace is the principal theme of the
play. Ranles. while visiting at Milches-
Ter Abbey. where Lady Melrose has a
wonderful diamond necklace, interrupts
the visit OF Crawshay, 4 burglar. who Is
trying 10 steal the necklace. Crawshay
has actually secured the diamonds,
when Raffies pouncos upon him I'm the
dark. takes the necklace from him, and
then calmly turns the burglar over TO
the police, keeping the diamond neck
lace himself because he has made a
wager with Captain Bedford the de-
tective. that the diamond necklace can
not be recovered inside of twenty-four
hours The role of Captain Bedford IS
a strong contrast TO the role of Raffies,
and the rest OF the play is a duel OF
wits between these two men-the IN
genious criminal who seeks TO escape
detection, and the nemesis striving TO
fasten upon him the proof OF guilt. How
Raffles foils the detectives az every
turn, keeps the necklace for twenty
four hours in order 10 win the bet. and
then, at the critical climax, escapes
from what appears TO be a hopeless
situation, makes UP one OF the mosS
thrilling comedy dramas Of recent years.
The love interest is sustained by the
affection of Raffes for Gwendolio Con-
ron. and his Pronunciation Of her because
he realizes that his fOndness for steal
ing has made him a social outcast. Miss
Chrystal Herne has the role OF Gwen

And mamma when she hears Il ring.
Unless she is alone,
Calls out TO all the family;
Somebody tend the phone!"
When some one calls up J or r
Or Il upon the line
Our telephone Il does not ring,
But Autters faint and fine;
And when she hears within the box
That calls for those unknown,
Whatever else she has on hand
Then mammals at the phone,
Anon she hears the gentle purr
Within the wooden box
She's darning sisters stockings
OR little brothers socks
But these she quickly lays aside;
Three pounds and plenty bone
shes getting soup for dinner"

Sometimes when mamma hears the

Say once or twice a week,
She fingers at the telephone
And smiles bur does not speak.
And when We ask, What's doins

Grange 20 Study Taxation.

Milwaukee grange at its meeting,
Saturday, started the discussion Of
the tax question, Mrs. Mary Getchell,
the lecturer, leading II. In starting
this study the work was begun at the
bottom. Topics were assigned as
follows: "Who is the ASSESSOR"
How Is the Assessor Selected?"
what Are the Duties OF the Asses
sor?" How Does He Perform His
Work." These are the preliminary
questions TO which answers will be
made at the meeting in August. Then
will follow the study OF the different
phases OF the present tax law, which
will take several meetings and will
gradually lead up 10 the main object,
what can be done to improve the
taxation laws and make them more
equitable?" The entire year will be
occupied with thorough discussion
and analysis of the tax question ac-
cording TO the program laid down by
state lecturer, Mrs. Clara Waldo. II
is supposed all the oranges will un-
dertake this work during the year.
but Milwaukee had laid out an ex-
tensive plan of study that will prove
interesting and instructive on this
subject that IS really little under
stood,-oregon City Star.

Gns for Boise.

The oregon Oil & Gas company
bos leased large holdings and is pre-
naring to carry on the development
80 tho feld on a large scale and IN
thorough business manner. 1t is said
the company contemplates piping tne
natural gas to Boise from ontario
and other points. If the gas snouiu
no found in sufficient quantities tor
this purpose, the effect 1t Will nave
on the future of eastern oregon ana
southern Idaho cannot be overesti-
mated.
A very important feature in con-
rection with the search for OIL ana
gas now going on in the Snake River
valley in the vincinity of ontario
and one which apparently has been
quite generally overlooked is the
relation TO the irrigation projects IN
this locality.
Immense areas of exceedingly ter-
tIo sagebrush lands cannot now he
irrigated because they are higher
than the present water supply Cheap
fuel means cheap power for pumping
purposes and It is estimated by
competent parties that If oil or gas
is produced in abundance, as elther
undoubtedly will be, the cheap fuel
tbus provided will open the way for
the irrigation of these lands at a
cost of from So to SO per acre, which
Is a very small fraction of the pres
ent cost of irrigating by pumping
processes.
It is hardly possible to estimate
what cheap fuel will mean TO BOISE
Ontario and surrounding towns. II
means that Boise will become a grea'
manufacturing and distributing cen
ter and that other towns In the dis'
trlct will increase in population and
Importance with lightning rapidity.--
