WIDOWED ITALIAN QUEEN
TO EMULATE ROOSEVELT

Rome.-The widowed queen of Italy
has decided to go off to Africa like
Colonel Roosevelt. The precise date
of her departure is not yet fixed. 1t
will depend upon the state of the
health of her mother, the Duchess
of Genoa. The Queen expects to meet
her kinswoman, theDuches d'Aosta,
in Central Africa. The Duchess had
such success hunting big game last
year she has determined to leave for
the dark continent as early as Oc-
tCber.
1t is to be regretted that the ele-
phant is dying out in Africa. There
are many places where it is forbidden
by the government to kill the female.
Queen Margherita loves out of door
life and was once president of an AL
pine congress. When motoring be-
came the fashion she was one of its
first votaries. She is now so enthusi-
astic over aviation that she is active
| ly encouraging the foundation of q
club having for its object flights over
the highest Alpine peaks from Italy
| into France. There is only one out
Of door sport in which her beautiful
daughter-in-law, Queen Elena, can ri
val her, and that is rifle shooting, il
which Italy's young Queen is an ex
pert. Queen Margherita is SO year
of age and is as much beloved by tn,
Italian people as when they used t
shout after her: There goes Mar
gherity. There is no princess like oul
Margherita."

LOCAL INDIAN MINISTER
INTERESTS EUGENE PEOPLE

The following is clipped from the
Eugene Register:
The address of Rev. James Dickson
the full blood Nez Perce Indian at
Central Presbyterian church last eve
ming was listened to with the greatest
attention by an audience of several
hundred people. He sang well
known hymn in his native tongue and
told IN graphic words the story of his
capture-his conversion to the Christ
ian religion and of his work among the
Bannocks, Shoshones and Umatilla In
dians He greatly deplored the fact
that his people are constantly spoken
Of as Savage" people. He told the
story of their wrongs Showed that
they were a loving tender-hearted
people to those who came to them In
love and sympathy with the word Of
God and that the early Puritans, Will
liam Penn, Oglethorpe and others,
had no trouble with the red man. be-
cause they treated him right. When
he saw his country taken away and
his liberties taken, he fought and he
could not tell good from a bad white
man and rather than submit to slay-
cry and oppression, he fought like a
man to the death and for this he Is
called a Savage" Rev. Dickson
will speak on the street at 43O this
afternoon and will tell what whiskey
has done for his people.

CORRUPT PRACTICES
ACT TO Be ENFORCED
DISTRICT ATTORNEY WILL
PROSECUTE VIOLATIONS
Asks All Good Citizens TO Assist Him
in Enforcing Act-No Campaign
ing of Any Kind Allowed.

All good citizens are called upon
by District Attorney Phelps to as
sist him on election day in enforcing
the corrupt practices act and pre-
venting all persons from casting bal
lots who are not entitled to the priv
ilege of voting. The prosecutor says
he will gladly prosecute all offend
ers but insists that the citizens them
selves are in the best position to no.
tify him of violations. He says it will
be impossible for him to be on the
streets all day or to be at each Of the
polling places in the county or even
in the city, but that he will willingly
investigate every charge brought TO
his attention.
The corrupt practices act prohibits
campaigning of all kinds on the day
OF election, not only at the polls but at
any other place. 1t is unlawful to
try in any way to influence voters.
Under the terms of the act it is just
as unlawful to hand a man a card
with instructions how to vote for any
measure or candidate as it is to plead
with him or threaten him.
The district attorney also desire!
to prevent transients or floaters from
voting here. if they are not entitled
to vote It is not believed, however
that any effort will be made to in
duce such people to vote for the rea
son that all the participants in the
transaction will be subject to prose
cution. It is also understood thai
watchers will be at the different poll
ing places.

GHOST OF ARCHBISHOP
SEEN IN CATHEDRAL CRYPT

London.-What may be the expla-
nation of many ghostly appartitions
was given in lecture on photography
by H. w. Finchman the other even
ing.
He declared that the "ghost" of
Thomas a-Becket, the Archbishop of
Canterbury, who was assassinated un-
der Richard l., was clearly to be seen
l., the crypt of Canterbury Cathedral.
One photograph showed an impalpable
figure of a prelate against a pillar
while another photograph, taken from
the same position, showed no such
appearance.
The probable explanation was that
a fresco had been painted on the pillar
and subsequently painted out. Conse-
quently, when the weather was damp
the figure became visible through the
overlaid material, and entirely disap.
peared during a drier season.

WIRELESS WILL JOIN
SHORES OF ATLANTIC

London.-Direct wireless communi-
cation between England and South
America will soon be established II
we are to believe in the assurances Of
the Marconi company's officials here.
They have grown very enthusiastic
since Mr.. Marconi, while in the har-
Dor of Buenos Ayres, succeeded in
receiving wireless kilograms from Cliff
den, Ireland, and Glace Bay, Nova
Scotia.
On his way to Buenos Ayres in the
Princessa Mafalda, of the Lloyd-Ita-
liano line, Mr.. Marconi carried out a
series of interesting experiments.
Every day he sent up a kite, which
carried an aerial wire, and he was
thus able to communicate continu-
ously with Clifden and Glace Bay for
$500 miles.
Then the experiments were inter-
dupted by high winds, which pre-
vented kite-flying. But on reaching
Buenos Ayres he resumed the expert
ments and had the satisfaction OF
proving that wireless messages may
be sent a distance of 5000 miles. As
a result, he Immediately made ar.
rangements for the construction of &
high power station at Punta del Este
Uruguay.

nection but in other directions, we
hope for very important development:
