"A Woman of the West"

A donkey is always an impressive
member Of family even of theatre
cal family Zaza the long cared and
kindly brute that promotes so many
laughs at each performance Of "A
Woman of the West" is as popular
with the members of that company as
with the children in the audience who
scream with delight at his antics. Ia
"a is a wise old owl In his way. When
first initiated into the mysteries OF
the stage he was inclined to be rather
obstreperous and many are the tales
told of his refusal to answer cues.
Finally he discovered that it is better
to be good than to be free and learned
that virtue brought it's own reward
each night in the form of candy when
his act was performed according to
Hoyle. All candy looked alike and
tasted alike to Zaza. That was be-

fore the donkey taste was educated.
1t is not SO now. Zaza has learned to
distinguish caramels from butter
scotch and prefers the high priced
delicacies to lollypops. Place before
this donkey several grades of candy
and the best will be eaten first and
each grade will be devoured in the or
der OF its merit. The better the candy
the better the donkey likes it, Often
the members of the company have
tested Zaza in this particular and
since learning that there is a differ
ence in the grades of candy the burro
has never made the mistake of saving
the best for the last mouthful. "A
Woman of the West" will be present
ed at the Gennett on Dec. 80.

Spokane, Wash, Dec. 2s.-Mines in
the Occur d'Alene district in north

lead this year, or 81 per cent of the to-

addition. there will be 100000 ounces
of silver and several million dollars in
copper, gold and zinc. The value
of the output of metals in the district
since A. ]. Pritchard, prospector,
made the discovery of gold in 1884, is
placed at $190,OOO,OOO, apportioned as
follows:
Lead, S121, 653 $50; silver, $55, 1885,

Prominent biologists estimate that
the ore extends to depth of a mile,
which means that the deposits can

WILL OPPOSE WOOD
Anti-Saloon League Does Not
Want Him in Power
In the Senate.
IF BEATEN THEY WILL QUIT.

Indianapolis. Dec. 2S.-Whether or
not the Anti-Saloon league will stand
for the election of Senator VIII II.
Wood, of Lafayette. as president pro
tenn. of the senate is not yet evident
One of its officials displayed some
tact recently by declaring publicly
that the league has no fight on with
Senator Wood and that it would not
regard his election as blow TO its
cause.
However the league is not enthus-
iastic over Senator Wood and will de-
feat him if possible. If its leaders find
that they can't beat him they will lie
down peacefully and say that Senator
Wood is a very fine man and that
they know that he will do the square
thing by them.
Senator Wood has been in the SEN
ate longer than any one else in the
history of the state. He is now COM
plotting his third consecutive term. He
has been a prominent member since
his first appearance and at no time
has been afraid TO express his views.
He is known for his fearlessness
and his disposition never to avoid a
fight. He voted for county local op-
ton at the special session. but said
then that he believed that the people
ought to have been given an oppor-
tunity to express themselves on it be
| fore the legislature took il up.
The general impression is that he
will vote fo- the repeal or the am,
endment of the law. but he has not
stated what he will do.

Meredith, n. H., December 26.-
Asked to name the terms under which
he would accompany President Roose-
welt to Africa, John Carder, citizen of
Meredith. has simply turned the prop
osition down without further INJURY.
1t was in August that Mr.. Carder re-
ceived a letter from the Presidents
acting secretary, Mr.. Foster, saying
he wrote by order of President Roose-
welt to ask Mr.. Carder what his terms
would be for accompanying him to AZ
RIGA next year. 1t seems that the Pres
ident must have heard that Mr.. Carder
was with Stanley in Africa in 1923
and thought his knowledge of the
country might be of use. Greatly to
the establishment of friends here, who
have just learned Of the proposition,
Mr.. Carder simply turned it down.

velope provided for the answer.

have jumped at the chance" said a

Piled Mr.. Carder. Il used to jump
once and l once had an opportunity to
be somebody, but l let it go and it is
too late now

welt l would have to look after the

poison with it,"
Mr.. Carder was once a Bryan man,
but last fall his campaign flag bore
