London, December 20.-According
to- statement made by Henry Rus
sell of the Boston Opera before he
sailed for America, Maurice Master
linck, the great Belgian author and
playwright, has wagered him $500
that he will go to America, see the
premiere of "Pelleas ct Melisande,'
and return to Europe without being
interviewed or even recognized. I'm
der the terms of the wager M. Mas
terlinck made solemn promise that
he would sail on the same steamer as
his wife, GeOrgette Leblanc, who de-
parted today on the Olympic to ap-
pear in the leading role at the Boston
performance.
M. Masterlinck, it is understood,
has made similar bets with other
friends. who hold that such feat is
impossible. 1t is not known in what
disguise he Will carry out his plans,
but he is a past master in the art,
and the New York reporters will have
to be very shrewd indeed to discover
his identity. 1t is believed that the
most likely place on board ship ITO
look for him will be among the steer
age passengers, and they will all be
looked over carefully by the New
York reporters, who consider the
wager as a challenge. 1t is said that
Nj. Masterlinck's friends in Boston
have arranged to hide him while he
is in that city.

London, December 2O.-A meeting
of representatives of the various
labor interests in London today may
have grave results in a strike that
will affect many industries. Golfers,
railway employees and postal carriers
are among the disaffected trades.
1t is considered unlikely, however,
that there will be any serious labor
disturbances until after the holidays.
This belief is based on the state
ments of labor leaders that they fear
they would ALLEVIATE the sympathies OF
the public by calling a strike just
before Christmas.
The outcome of the Mcnamara
case in America has been the sub
ject of considerable comment in the
British newspapers. While they as
,sert that such conspiracies are un
likely in England, it is admitted that
failure to address the very real griev
ances of the laboring men might
drive them to desperate methods
The conservative papers use the
Mcnamara case as horrible example
of the effects of unionism and urge
the employers of labor to stand firm
against the unions.

Harry Hersey. for several years
head trainer and manager of the In
ternational Stock Food farm, has re-
signed to leave Mr.. Savage January
l, 1912.
Hersey has had great success since
taking the management of the farm,
and has succeeded in lowering the
record of every champion or near
champion Mr.. Savage has purchased.
Hersey was little known when he
took the place of McHenry as train
or of Dan Patch. HOrsemen through
out the country were Of the opin-
ion that Hersey, least of all, could
improve on the work of the then
wizard, McHenry. Hersey not only
improved the wonderful horse, but
electrified the world by his wonder
full performances with Dan Patch,
and has made his name the topic of
conversation to every known race OF
people when the horse is discussed.
Dan Patch is now the best known
horse the world has known.
When Hersey took Dan it was to
lower the records formerly given him
by McHenry, and he did not stop
until he had set the record at 1:55
Hersey has had equal success with
Minor Heir, George Gano, Lady Maud
c., and Haywood Boy, besides devel
oping and marking number of the
farms colts. Mr.. Hersey will be
succeeded as trainer by Mr.. McCarr
now second trainer. w. E. Mosely
former secretary of the late L. A
Downs stock farm of West Liberty
Iowa, will be manager of the farm
and have complete charge of the
sales.

Good Thunder

Once more your correspondent is
at the old post again after de-
lightful trip and visit in fair West
ern Oregon, where we met with
true western cordially and made
many good friends. Greatly enjoy
ed visits with the old original "Min-
nesota people," who made many in
terested inquiries about old friends
and neighbors, among them being
Attorney and Mrs. w. E. Young,
formerly of Mankato, who have one
of the finest homes in Eugene,
commanding a grand panoramic
view of the Willamette valley and
city of Eugene. The view is fine
and something one will never tire
of. In their coy home we found
our old Chief Good Thunder calen-
dar hung in place of honor and
on the library table found the Man
kato Free Press and Mapleton En-
terprise, all indications that the
from the old home. Mr.. Young and
family do not wish to forget old
friends and acquaintances.
J. F. Grant and wife have also
built a fine home during the past
year, and though they have not
built on the hillsides they have
pretty view of the town and the
snow capped mountains, leaving the
hill climbing for the younger gen.
eratiOns, content to live nearer the
city and greatly enjoying the COM
forts of modern comfortable home
and fine climate.
Also met Mrs. John Weary, a
granddaughter of Mr.. Clinton 3.
Hensley. Mr.. Hensley, we learned,
was connected with editorial work
in Mankato in earlier days and will
be remembered by many. His Wild
owed wife makes her home in
Bloomington. Ind, 315 Dunn street.
We left all the friends in Eugene
apparently well and none expressed
a wish to return to Minnesota
where "hard coal meant money" in
the winter as some one was heard
to quote. A fireplace is all there is
needed for heating purposes there,
somewhat different from our boiling
hot furnace lants and red hot coal
heaters.
Palms of all descriptions and
orange trees loaded with oranges
Cal, as we sped on toward home
Yes, they were all very beautiful
yet as we reached Minnesota, the
clean, crisp, frosty air made our
cheeks and ears Jingle, we took
great refreshing breaths, glad to be
| home, glad to see the rich gray
brown lines of trees, glad to shake
hands with the old friends, and hear
their hearty welcome home again.
