THE cRlrrENToN HoME-Mr.

Messenger, matron of the Crittenton home, resigned sometime ago and went away and the home has recent ly been under the direction of tenn porary management, which though satisfactory, has not become accus- toned to the practice of securing for the needs of the home that publicity which was heretofore responded to so cheerfully by the people of this community. In other words the home has been suffering from what might be called an ingrowing modesty. This fact was discovered by Mrs. Cole, a former matron, in a recent visit,
 and she hastens to let her old friends, the people, know how they can do few kind acts just now at little or no expense. She says that though the watermelon season is now

 melon appetite at the home that ought to be gratified, especially in view of the fact that some people have fruit and melons rotting in their fields and orchards. Any donation of these things to the home will be gratefully appreciated, and any per son having fruit or melons to donate and no time or conveyance for taking it there, is asked to telephone the

will stop off on his way to Idaho
and will simply open and adjourn the
court This formality will be all that
will constitute the sessions.
Judge Bean will be accompanied by
United States Marshal C. j. Reed, or
one of his deputies 1t is also pos
sible that a deputy for the local of
flee will be named while the federal
judge and United States marshal are
here. When Mrs. Johnston was sent
to Pendleton it was announced that
a deputy United States marshal would
also be named, but though two ap-
plications We're made to the deputy
clerk and were forwarded by her to
Portland, she has as yet received no
notice of the appointment of any one.
Mrs Johnston will probably act as
clerk for both sessions of courts dur
ing their brief sessions, though it is
possible that Anderson NJ. Cannon,
clerk of the circuit court. will come
up from Portland to make note of
the convening of his department.
Though there have already been
two openings and two adjournments
of the court, this will be the first
time a federal judge has sat on the
local bench.

ATHENA LAND SOLD
FOR RECORD PRICE

The highest price ever paid in this
county if not in the whole inland en-
pire for unimproved land to be used
for growing wheat, was paid this
week by Henry Koepke. the we'll
known Athena farmer, to Mary
LaBrash, for 40 acres of land upon the
Umatina Indian reservation. The
price paid was s117.50 per acre, and
is but another one of the many recent
indications of the rapid advancement
in the value Of the agricultural land
Of the county.
There are no improvements upon
the tract, whatever, but it adjOins the
already large farm of Mr.. Koepke. less
than two miles from the town of
Athena, and is considered to be as
good as any land in the county, for
the purpose for which it is useG.
There was another bid of s115 per
acre for the land.
A few weeks ago Mr.. Koepke bought
200 acres of Ed Gallagher at 800 per
acre and about a year ago he pur-
chased 100 acres of Sam Purdy at a
high figure. He now has in the one
farm. 440 acres and recently COM
pleted one of the finest farm homes
in the county at cost of $1,000.
In addition to his Athena farm he
/ is the possessor of three sections OF
valuable wheat land in the HELIX
country.

AMERICAN STARS
SHINE IN LONDON

London.-rhe exchange of theatri-
cal talent between Great Britain and
America is becoming more brisk every
season, and the London vaudeville
stage more specially now glitters
with transatlantic STARS"
The old compaint repeated by Miss
Marie Dressler that American talent
is not appreciated on the English
stage is laughed to scorn by the Am
erican artists who now dominate the
Palace Theater of Varieties and other
music halls, and the genuine success
of Miss Rose Stahl in the Chorus La
dy" last season clearly proved that
there is plenty of room here for first
class actors and actresses from "the
other side"
Just at present the American en-
tertainer, Lafayette, is drawing great
audiences at the provincial vaudeville
theaters, and at Brighton last week
his show was received with immense
enthusiasm.
Miss Clarice Vance has been receiv-
ed so well that she deplares she wants
a perpetual engagement in this coun-
try.
Among the private entertainers
Miss Fisk delights with her satrical
monologues, and Miss Floyd Ariston
sings real negro songs in manner
to which British audiences are unac-
customed.

favorite in London, and as reciter
and STORY teller" has had many i'm

LIMESTONE AGAINST IT.
Mr.. WATSON, of Huntsville Delivers I
TRADE

Athens, Oct. 5-(Speciai.)-The po-
litical fight on the Amendment to the
Constitution was opened mere by Rev.
Edward WATSON, pastor of the Meth
odlst Church at Huntsville, who gath
cred small crowd at the steps of the
court house and spoke to them as long
as they would listen.
He was very bitter in his arraign-
ment of the men who opposed his theO-
ry of government. and made some
very broad assertions.
While he had a small crowd of men
from the various sections of the coun-
ty who had been brought to town to
do jury duty, the major part of his au-
dience was composed of women and
girls. the latter being seated about
the yard on the grass.
The speaker made but little impress
sion and when asked a few pertinent
questions, refused to answer.
The sentiment in this county is very
strong against the amendment. More
than twenty leading men from the va
rious sections of the county and al
most invariably reported the county
overwhelmingly against the Amend
ment.
One strong Conner man said: "I have
followed Conner to the last ditch, but
am done now"
A we'll managed fight here will bring
the major ty three to one against the
amendment.
