At the Arcade.

Though the motion picture films at
the Arcade were "a hours late in ar
irving, Manager Crews believes he has
very good bill. The feature picture
is "a Honeymoon Through Snow to
Sunshine" while two comics are, "a
Story Of a Cork Leg and "A Beggars
Repentance The Honeymoon
Through Snow to Sunshine is a seen
ic release with a touch of romantic
sentiment and a thread of story to
break the motonony of straight seen
cry The start of the honeymoon is
made in Philadelphia during the blz-
zard of last December when fourteen
inches of snow covered the ground.
The honeymooners entered a carriage
to be driven from the minister's house
to the station, but the carriage becomes
stalled and with their hand bags they
struggle through heavy drifts to the
Pullman that is to whisk them to the
Southland. Next they are to be seen
in the city park at Jacksonville and
they visit the Florida ostrich farm.
At ST. Augustine they stop at the ia
nous Ponce de Leon, the court yard of
which is a most remarkable piece of
architecture, and they. also inspect old
Fort Marion. At Palm Beach they take
a roller chair trip through some splen-
did scenery and go from there to Mia

Palm hotef~is played the little drama
of the first quarrel. The bride receives
a note from her brother making an

him a little, and he follows her in q
jealous rage. When he sees her meet

SLIDES CLAIM
MANY VICTIMS

SPOKANE, Mar. 1-Silence like
death itself reigns throughout this
whole mining district today, where 10
lives are known to have been crushed
out beneath ice and snow that swept
down the mountain sides, crushing
the bodies of men, women and chill
dren, quietly sleeping in the little
villages of Burke and Mace.
Mrs. Hooper, an aged woman caught
in the avalanche at Mace, succumbed
to her injuries late last night, and
with Mrs. Pascoe, whose three chill
dren are already numbered among
the dead, clinging to life by narrow
thread, it is feared that the death toll
in these two villages and the Carbon
ate mine will he brought to an even
score.
SO far 81 men, women and children
have been res Cued from the Mace slide
ard the men are working desperately
in shifts in an effort to succor those
who may pc ssibly he alive beneath
the crush Of snow ar Il timbers.
At Burke, Whele the second slide
occurred few H., RS after the one
at Mace, five are Known to be dead
anG two badly Injured Such is the
chaotic condition il. the small mining
town however, that the list is believed
not to be complete. The saddest event
of this place is the death of the two
children of AL. Newman, who, with his
wife and two little ones, without a
seconds warning were buried by the
great sliding mass.
At Carbonate Hill. where the third
slide occurred, two are dead and hall
q, dozen men are Injured. 1t is not
known how manX more are beneath
the wreckage The Carbonate. Hill
slide was not so great in extent as
others in the Occur d'Alene district
but it's force was as great and II
swept everything before it.
A fourth slide, at the North Frank
lin mine, near Burke, played a pecul-
lar freak when it descended upon the
clubhouse of the miners. TWO men
| were sleeping in one room of the ca
bin. The front part of the log struc-
| ture was empty. An avalanche tore
the whole building to splinters except
| the one room in which the two men
were sleeping, and rushing down the
mountainside it piled up in the gulch
below not 100 yards from group OF
cabins containing many miners and
| their families.
| At Dorsey, Idaho, a fifth slide is
reported to have caused the death OF
| two unidentified men, and a. Adalr, a
third unidentified man is reported &c

COLD WEATHER KILLS OFF
FIELD SQUIRRELS BY SCORES

DAYTON, Wash. Mar Mill
! ions of field squirrels or go downs
as commonly called. were killed in the
grain country south of the Snake riv-
er nthis state by the cold weather of
the last of February, declare leading
ranchers around Dayton. This means
crops will escape damage amounting
to thousands of dollars. During the
warm days preceding the cold spell,
the 'varmints' came out of their holes
by thousands and rumOr had it that
grain would suffer greater injury than
last season when several hundred
acres of grain-in instances whole
crops-Were practically destroyed by
these pests in the Willow Creek, Dry
Creek, Snake river and other low dis
trictx.
Farmers last season waged general
warfare on the rodents, even sending
to the state experiment station at
Pullman for virus with which to in
noculate the pests. In this manner
many squirrels were killed but far
mers felt that they were losing
ground. Preparations were being
made to wage more systematic war
fare this year and it was feared loss
es would be much heavier.
The rodents use the bunch grass
pastures and waste places for breed
ing grounds and then feed in neigh
boring grain fields Very often they
burrow in fields making traps for hor-
ses and cattle so that many broken
legs have been ascribed to squirrel
holes. Farmers affirm the cold wealth
err of last week practically annihiliated
the destructive pests.

positive. chiefly through the interior
ence of the "peepul." Woodruff didn't
approve the nomination of Governor
Hughes-but the party nominated him.
And woodruff managed a campaign
for Mr.. Hughes that was mastery in
its silence-and the people elected Mr..
Hughes. And Woodruff declined to
boost Mr.. Hughes legislative policies
whereupon Mr.. Hughes used a meta
phoricai club and got along without
him. And about the only victory that
Woodruff has won of late was the Sc
lection of Senator Aids to lead his
party at Albany-and Conger soused
Mr.. Aids into a pan of hot water that
has loosened Mr. Woodruff's pin feath-
ers. It isn't any wonder that Mr..
Woodruff is represented as asking
that the little difficulty at Albany
be ignored. What he really means is
that he'd like to call for fresh deck
to see if his luck won't change.
He's a neatly rounded little man..
five feet seven inches tall, and. pos
sessed of just enough embonpoint to
keep his waistcoat pumped. Smooth
shaven, round faced, hair as dark and
abundant as when he won that Yale
sheepsl1in, he is an exponent of the
art of perfect dressing. In his carless
youth he achieved a passion for fancy
vests. The Woodruff waistcoat was a
thing to dream about, and then an I'M
kind reporter wrote special article
about them that was syndicated all
over the world. Ever since then Mr..
Woodruff has restrained his passion for
vestments and for pantments, too, so
far as that goes-and has been trying
to live down the memory.

Brokers Attitude

NEW YORK, Mar. Favorable in
ferences might be drawn Of the con-
fidence felt by holders OF stock from
the scanty offerings to sell n the mar
ket today 1t was this lightness Of sup
ply Of stocks which made it easy for
the professional traders to bid up 2ri-
ces without being obliged to accept
any great amount of stock. The news
bearing on security values did not
seem to be considered Of sufficient
Importance to prompt any large shift
ing of position il the market on the
part of the more substantial inside
interests The attitude of Waiti.'. was
maintained on ther part. The absence
of winter vacations of many persons
accepted as leaoers of authority in
finance and in market m ,v1mcnts is i
feature of the position.
The annual report of the Pennsyl-
vana railroad was studied with the
us ual interest The profiGa Die results
of the years business had an influence
in sustaining confidence and n !ne
firm undertone Of the days market.
Not only past results recor6 III hut
the plans outlined for pr0diglDuS fur
ther outlay for additions and improve
ments contributed to this effect. The
increasing number of bond issues sold
to bankers is further teSt monV of the
unimpaired determination of the great
railroad corporations to proceed with
the work of building up their systems.
While encoura cement is felt at this
evidence of progress in necessary fl
nancing, it does not escape comment
that the rate of return on these new
bond issues and the price at which they
are placed argues the compulsion Dor
roWers are under to offer more than
usually attractive terms in order to
enlist new capital. The extra dividend
disbursement by the Lake Shore was
taken TO show the desire of the parent
New York Central to enlist as large re-
sources as possible from it's subsidiary
companies for carrying on it's extensive
