with the weeping daughter of the
dead woman.
Mrs. williams had been in poor
health for some time. She had
suffered with innammatory rheuma-
tism, her heart being affected.
Earlier In the day a physician had
attended her. but she felt able to
attend the theater.
Soon after seating herself be-
side her daughter In the balcony
she was seized with q smothering
spell. The ushers helped her to the
retiring room and PACED the house
for physicians. After the curtain
arose for a time the groans OF the
dying woman could be heard and
when they ceased it was presumed
by all who heard that the sick wo-
man had recovered.
The last sounds OF suffering were
drowned in the gales of laughter
that began sweeping the house
from the time the curtain arose.
The incident had been forgotten by
the audience when the final curtain
fell and only the little group re-
naming to perform the Offices for
the dead knew of the close inter
mingling of tragedy and comedy.
Mrs. Williams was about 55
years of age and had lived in Gree
ley for several years. One daugh-
ter, Miss Dee, who teaches in the
public schools. lived with her. She
had a son in Missouri, where the
body will be taken for interment.

and able way told of ''The relation
Of Play to Art. She said the sx-
preston Of art was found in the

STATE MONEYS
May PURCHASE
WATER BONDS
Attorney General Rules That Land
Board May Buy Irrigation Se-
curities IL 1t Desires

The attorney general yesterday
rendered an opinion to the state
land board, holding that it is legal
to invest state funds in the bonds
of irrigation districts. The land
board requested an opinion on this
question some time ago.
Deputy Attorney General Mother
sill. after going into the matter
carefully, prepared the opinion. He
holds that under proper precautions
the school funds of the state may
be invested in first issue bonds for
water districts, under the direction
of the state land board.
T. C. Henry and other prominent
irrigation men appeared before the
state board some time ago to urge
that the state invest some Of the
money tied up in permanent funds
in irrigation enterprises. 1t was
argued that by carefully investigat-
ing new projects and putting stamp
of approval upon reliable ones by
a small Investment of state money
the land board could do much to en-
courage development in this line.
Members Of the board doubted their
authority to invest state money In
this way and applied to Attorney
General Griffith for an opinion.
The land board is supposed to
safeguard state money 80 invested.
1t Is probable that the first irriga-
tion district to apply for an invest
ment of state funds will be the
Mnntssums valley project now
under construction at a cost Of close
to 100000.

"Dear friends, brothers and sis

founded this city, 1t seems but fit-
ting should say a few words. AZ
we remain q remnant of the old
pioneers we feel privileged to do and
say pretty much to our liking.
Nov, Just let our minds take US
back 27 years ago and what do we
zee? Nothing but wild prairie and
cactii. What did this prognosticate? :?
determined will to overcome all
the obstacles II We would be winners
of the situation. Well. We all re-
through and now we see the fruits
showing the greatness of mans
ability and his wondrous capacity
of making the desert bud and
blossom like rose". And now
comes the reward. Homes sur
rounded with beautiful trees, sweet
flowers. nodding to the breeze and
the attractiveness of wealth and
plenty meet the eye on all sides
But as time passes on there will
arise those who know not, and care
less Of the early struggle and hard
ships that befell the old pioneers
and their leader, while fighting to
plant city In a desert.
But the pioneers foresaw In the
great future as 1t were. the might
ness Of their work. And this gave
inspiration for its accomplishment
And now the work IL done, our sun

continual crimes of really dishon-
est one. He'll be governor,
though"
The train started. and the man
with the child lost the answer. He
shrank back in his chair. "How
can | go back? How can they let
me? o, God, keep my courage
alivei"
The dusk faded into night.
Through long stretches of dingy
factory towns roared the train
Into the big city. The man with
the child began awkwardly to
wrap his charge against the night
air. His hands trembled vio-
lently. When the train stopped he
alishted, quaking inwardly. He
pulled his hat we'll down, walking
with head bent over the child in
his arms, lest among the busting
crowds at the depot might be some
who recognized him. He took a
cab, fearing the curious eyes of the
lstreet-car passengers. He need
not have feared; the people of that
city had long since cast him out
of their memories. The WORKOUT
horse dragged it's load slowly
enough up the steep streets, but to
the fare he seemd to be flying.
They turned into a familiar,
quiet street. The prodigaPs limbs
were shaking so that he could
hardly hold the child. His heart
beat painfully. Wild thoughts of
leaving the baby on the doorstep
and fleeing rushed through his
brain. The cab stopped. The pas
lsenger, shivering, got out.
He walked slowly up the gravel
path leading to the porch. He
could see into the brightly light
ed library. He knew every littlS
detail of that room. He remem-
bered that once. in that room, he
had sworn to be true-whatever
might come!
To the long French window
came a woman, her figure silhou-
cited against the bright light of
the lamps. He recognized Kath-
leen. She was looking out at
him.
oho opeueu the uOOr, gazing
lgravely at the bearded, sallow-
faced man who stared at her
strangely.
DO you wish to see Mr.. Nc
Adoo? He's out Of the city lust
now"
"Kathleen!" he cried i'm a
strange, croaking voice. Don't
you know me?"

JOY, voiced themselves in the
word. And welcome shone in her
eyes as a harbor light to the storm
driven seafarer.

He followed her into the library,
The warm, cosy room seemed to
enfold him, to welcome him. He
sank into chair, burying his face
In his hands.

She petted him as she would pet

DO you think--hc-will let me

Have you any doubt?" She
faced him proudly. Then you

Since the day when
the first prodigal went out into
that far country, the story of
prodigals has been the same; it is
never a pretty tale. First always
comes the time of passion I'M
leashed, when life grows red in
the glass. If there be a thing
which the prodigal would forget,
he Is apt to drink the moro deep
ly. But always comes the time
when the glass is empty. when his
eyes turn homeward. Not coward
Ice but courage sets his feet In the
pathway of his eyes. There have
been the towards.
1T wasn't easy, Kathleen
was so ashamed-but il was very
lonely"
But all that is ended, Paul"
Sometimes life throws the
prodigal a line. In PauIs case
the line was his sister, another
astray under the curse of inherited
temperament, whom he had found
dying and hugging to her heart a
child of passion.
She died. But made those
last weeks easier for her. | think

Loses Out In Japan

TOXIC, March 21.-Efforts by
the anti-American or nationalist
party in Japan to impeach Prime
Minister Katsura and his cabinet
today in the diet, failed utterly
and Foreign Minister Komura I'M
proved the occasion to declare
that the Japanese government was
determined to maintain the pres
ent friendly relations with the
United States.
The motion of impeachment
was introduced in the lower house
of the diet. AS this was the last
day of the session, it was hoped
to rush it through and get a YER
