HARRINGTON WAS
NEVER ANXIOUS
TO BE WRITER
INDIANA NOVELIST, HOWEVER,
WOULD LIKE TO LIVE ON A
COUNTRY ESTATE.

PITTSBURG, Oct. 14.-Booth
Harrington declares he has writ
ten his last novel.
Il never wanted to be a writer"
said Harrington, and unless l am
absolutely forced to do so, have
written my last book. My ambi-
ton in life is to become an illus
trator,Vand l once thought l was
in a fair way to reach my goal.
The very first illustration l made
sold for 500. Then l made 3S more,
and every one of them was re-
jected.
Il now have but one ambition
to make money enough to get out
of this play-writing mess and pur-
chase a nice farm in Indiana,
where l may lead the life of a
country gentleman, with just
enough to keep me from want
nothing more"
Harrington declares his sister is
responsible for his success as a
novelist. 1t was she who went to
the publishers and almost upon her
knees begged Mcclure to read his
first effort, "The Gentleman
From Indiana"

During his life Mr.. DAILY enjoyed
a large measure of popularity
among the residents of the valley,
and his memory Is still held in high
regard. He stood for all there was
of enterprise in his lifetime. and
all that has come in the way of
development in recent years was
outlined in the plans and projects,
which were ended by his death.
1t was Marcus Daily who dis
covered the adaptability of the Bit
ter Root valley for fruit growing
under irrigation. In the develop
ment of his estate he called in the
expert horticulturists of the coun-
try, including those of the state
and the United States agricultural
departments. and had a study made
of the soil and climatic conditions.
supplemented by a survey of the
bench lands at the base of the Bit
ter Root mountains. AS a result of
the reports from these experts he
planned an enormous reclamation
work. involving the construction of
an irrigation canal 60 miles in
lentgh to bring the waters of Como
lake from a spot hundreds of feet
up in the mountains, through an
inverted siphon under the Bitter
Root river, and across to the east
ern side Of the valley, there to
water the 10000 acres of sage COW
cred bench lands, ideal locations,
as the experts reported, for or
Chards.
This dream of DAILY has now been
realized. A private company,
backed by Chicago, Philadelphia
and New York capital, has put in
two millions of dollars, and this
summer saw the first crops ever
raised on these high benches at
the base of the Bitter Root noun
tains.
Incidentally the lands are being
marketed at $3.50 an acre, and up
ward. Which figure should be set
alongside the figure at which the
government is selling irrigated
homestead tracts in Huntley, Mont,
namely, $34 an acre.

Two More Days in Which to Apply Your Piano Credits on

Our big Fall Piano Sale, which is

in the history of our establishment.
From the date of our first an
nouncement up to the present time
we have been taxed to our capacity
selling pianos and getting new
goods to supply the demand. The
third day of this sale we sold twen-
ty-six pianos, a record day for
Eilers Piano House. 1t seemed as
though the people had been wait
ing for just such an opportunity and
the attractive prices not only ap-
pealed to them, but many bought
who had not expected to make such
an investment for months to come.
We have not had time to give
you more than mere jottings re-
garding this great sale, and we are
giving you this bit of information
today to show you that there is a
reason to "sit up and take notice."
and that reason is the extraordin-
airy opportunity we are offering to

"TEXAS" IS GOOD

Texas" a comedy drama Of the
southern plains, opened two
nights engagement at the Audi
forum last night, a fairly good
audience welcoming the play, which
smacks of the cowboy life of the
west. Plenty Of good, wholesome
comedy and the struggle between
"Freshwater" Jack, the hero, and
PasQuale, a border half-breed,
makes the production very enjoy
able one.
Pasquale, the ruffian half-breed,
is the counterpart of Trampas in
"The Virginian," the struggle be-
tween the bad man and Fresh

by Dustin Farnum in his famous
play of the west.
The scheming of Lord Angus
Trevor, the Englishman in the play,
to secure possession of the prop
erty of Colonel Buck West, man.
ager and owner of Buck Head
ranch, is an interesting addition to
the comedy supplied by Mrs. Jen-

PASTOR IS "SASSED" 4.
BY HIS GIRL PUPILS
Class Leaves Sunday School at Ap-
proach Of Minister.

proach OF Minister.
PITTSBURG, Oct. 14.-Their
eyes flashing with indignation and
determination, 20 fashionable
young women, composing the
Chrestomathian class of the Mary
8. Brown Memorial Sunday School,
left the school In open rebellion
against the pastor, the Rev. c. v.
Wilson, when he attempted to
take the place of F. w. Bonar,
class organizer and regular
teacher.
Their action nearly disrupted
the school, and only the desire to
avoid a most embarrassing situa-
ton kept the other members OF
the school in their places. The
girls "sassed" the pastor, and
then went to the home of Bonar,
where they organized class and
studied the lesson.
The pastor and his new Sunday
school superintendent, Robert
Patterson, whose nomination by
the Sunday school board has not
been confirmed by the conference,
took charge of the school yester-
day.
The girls composing the Chres-
Jonathan class are opposed to the
change, and have decided to re-
main away until BOnar again
takes charge.
