eighty-third birthday, March 3,

AS the Spring Sun warns the snow,
Sc our love doth you enfold;
And tho birthdays come aud go,
We know that you will meier
grow old.
IT'S said the world holds seven
wonders,
And we know this to be true;
But Mother Nature never blunders
So she sprang an eighth one-you
And all honor is yours today,
Beyond the glories of land or sea
Your skies are bright. instead 0

From over the mountains far away
You've come with us to "bide-a
wee"
And from this all too short a stay
May memories sweet abide will

KATHLEEN
MAVOURNEEN
Greatest Of Irish Plays to be Presented
at Utopia Opera House on
March IL.
UNDER AUSPICES OF ODDFELLOWS
By Local Talent Under the Direction
of Lee Mcclellan.

The coming OF St. Patrick's Day,
the great holiday for the Irish, and
incidently everybody concerned,
is generally celebrated by some
thing appropriate for the date, and
keeping this fact in view the
Oddfellows will produce the quaint
old Irish ST. Patrick's day play,
Kathleen Mavourneen. The play
is one that brings with it startling
breeze of the atmosphere of the
"Ould Sod" with it's typical Irish
characters, and good old Irish songs.
The scenes are laid on the bank OF
Killarney in the middle of the
nineteenth century and the time is
st. Pstrick's eve and ST Patrick 8
morning. Kathleen O'Conner the
pretty daughter of David O'Conner,
one of Bernard Kavanaugh's ten
ants, is visited by the Young
Squire and his sister and listening
to the stories of high life as told by
the sister and complimented by the
proposal of the Squire and a dia-
nond ring, becomes imbued with
the idea that she must become a
great lady. The old sweetheart,
Terence O'MooIe, arr ives in the
midst of her meditations, but she
is so infatuated that she requests
time to consider his proposal Of
marriage.
After he leaves she falls asleep
by the Preside and dreams of hel
marriage to the squire; his cruelty
to her; his attempted murder
Terence's rescue, where he kills
Bernard; his arrest, and finally
she wakes up just as, in her dream
he is to be executed, The fact that
ell the plot, tragedy, sensation, etc
is only the portrayal Of the dream
gives the play an exceptionally
happy ending, and leaves the audi
ence in a delightful mood to da nee
which opportunity will be giver
free Immediately after the play
The music will be furnished by
Maughan's full orchestra.
The play is given under th'
auspices and for the benefit of thu
Oddfellows, and underline direction
of Lee Mcclellan, who painted The
scenery here last fall and produced
1.-THE Convict's Daughter"
The Oddfellows made practica
arrangements for this play ant

THE "TRUsTY" RETURNED. Ward Hicks is
again in the custody of Sheriff Jenkins, after
an absence of about three weeks, and will no
longer be considered 'trusty' Although
closely watched he found opportunity to give
the officers the slip and with few minutes
start succeeded in evading capture until he
was arrested April 22nd in Jonesport and lock-
ed up in the Jail at Machias. He is supposed
to have made the trip on foot to Jonesport, his
native place, and where he has sister living.
He not only admitted his identity to the officer
who arrested him, but disclosed the fact that
he had served term of seven years in the
State prison at Thomaston for breaking and
entering. and it is safe to say that he will be
closely looked after in the future. Deputy
Sheriff Ira White of Winterport went to Ma
chias for the prisoner and should have arrived
here on Tuesday evenings train, but through
an accident on the Washington county railway
failed to make connections, and so came down
the river on steamer Stockton yesterday morn
ing.

The care given the COW just before
and after the first few weeks after
calving determines very largely the
production for that period OF lacta-
tion. Improper treatment will have a
more direct and lasting effect then
than at any other time, and it means
dollars and cents that she he handled
to give the maximum production.
The following. writes A. h. Chase,
superintendent Of live stock, Idaho
University Experiment Station, Is a
method that has given good results.
The COW is dried up from four to six
weeks before the calf is due, and fed
dry feed. If any constipation Is no.
ticed. a little linseed oil Is mixed with
the grain. Those cows liable to be
afflicted with milk fever are fed very
little the last couple Of days. II the
udder tends to cake It is MIXED out
and we'll rubbed. After the calf is
born and has taken its first feed the
COW is MIXED dry and the udder
thoroughly manipulated. The calf is
allowed to remain with the COW the
first day, and then put In the calf
pens out of sight OF the COW. Very lit
tie trouble has been had with caked
udder, but the treatment in bad cases
has been to milk them three times a
day. and after each milking battle
for some time in hot water and then
rub we'll with turpentine and lard.
1t is the rubbing that counts more
than the linment.
Care is taken to see that the after
birth is passed properly and no i'm
proper cases allowed to go more than
"a hours without treatment. The first
day after calving the COW Is fed very
sparingly and then gradually in
creased. Within three or four days II
doing properly she is put back with
the rest of the herd. From then on
the feed is increased slowly until full
feed is reached. This is determined
when the milk record fails to rise
with any further increase of feed.

CHAMP Says Dove Of
Peace HAS RETURNED
AFTER IL YEARS OF WANDERING
THE "UNTERRIfTED" HAVE
COME TO PEACE.

WASHINGTON, Nov. Speaker
Champ Clark today declared he has
devoted the last three years chiefly
to getting the house democrats to-
gether and holding them together,
and that after seventeen years of fac
tional fighting the democrats "are
united and by the blessings of God
viii remain so. Where there was
once despair there is now high hope
This is the way the ttular head of
the democratic party of the lower
house made indirect reply to criti-
cisms of W. J, Bryan as to the speak
er's no longer carrying the leadership
of the house.
Tine trend Of public opinion is to-
ward the democrats President Tafts
lCng trip seems to have left things in
statu quo said Mr.. Clark.
The speaker said recent election re-
suits prove that wherever the tariff
was the sole or principal issue, the
democrats won and that when Mr..
Taft vetoed the tariff bills it was in
evitable that the tariff would be the
leading issue next year.
"One Of the most preposterous can
ards put into print" added the speak
tr, lis the charge that | am for the
forcible annexation of Canada. There
is not fact in the universe on which
to base such a question, | never at
any time or place hinted such wick
ed quiXotic scheme. | would oppose
it to the utmost"

w. 5. Smith, a stock raiser at Sioux
City, la, had this to say at the recent
meeting Of the Minnesota Live Stock
Breeders Association. in reference to
feeding once or twice a day:
Years ago / used to feed my cat
tie corn twice a day, until one day |
ran across a statement that many
feeders feed only once day. had a
set of scales put between two feed
yards and in one feed yard fed corn
once a day and in the other twice.
weighed the cattle in both yards
monthly, and found practically no
difference in gain. So for the last

Number of Votes You Get

After today there are only three
more days left in which the candi-
dates and their friends, who are in
the race for the three automobiles
and the eighteen other prizes offered
by the World in its mammoth voting
contest, will be able to secure 15,-
600 extra votes on each club of five
new six-months subscriptions.
What Vote Offer Means.
A large majority of the candidates
appreciate what this big offer means
to them, and are exerting every effort
to secure just as many clubs as they
possibly can and are laying up a big
reserve to use at the finish when
every nerve Will be strained and
every friend viii do his or her utmost
10 see that their favorite wins.
OF course there are some wise ~
ones who insist that they know more
about II than any one else, ana VINO
are passing up this vote offer, but
those are the very same people who
will have been left at the post when
the race is over, and the winners
have claimed the rewards which their
enrgy and headwork have justly de-
creed should be their.
But the ones who are really wise,
and whose names will be on the list
Of winners at the finish, are the ones
who do their best from day to day
and take advantage of every little

how any candidate runs her cam
paign. and each candidates cam
pagn is in her own hands.
votes Are Not Transferred
Votes cannot be transferred from
one contestant to another. If one
drops out, her votes are Immediately
cancelled and then destroyed. It
would not he fair to the other can
didates to allow votes to be trans
ferred, for at the finish several lad
les who had been depending upon
their friends to a great extent for
their votes might club together and
take the prize away from some lady
who had been devoting her whole
time to the contest.
ANY contestant. therefore, VINO
drops out of the race will have her
votes destroyed.
