SCHOOL OPERETTA WELL
RENDERED TO BIG HOUSE

The opera house was packed to the
doors Monday to hear the school
operetta, which was most pleasingly
rendered.
Rounds OF applause greeted the
young hopefuls as, bedecked in all
the flowery embellishments Of spring,
or in winters garb Of snow and
frost, they proclaimed in harmoni-
GUS chorus, solo or duet the claims OF
the four seasons OF the year, the
cantata being named "The Whole
Year Round" given undor the direc-
ton Of Miss Ethel Chapman, musical
instructor Of the schools.
The performance showed Miss
Chapman's ability as a paInstaking
and able director.
The children, always popular, ap-
peared unusually attractive In gar
lands of roses, autumn leaves, etc,
while dozen or more chubby little
ones in red and brown, picturing
Jack Frost, entered into the antics OF
leap frog" and pelted the audience
with cotton snow balls, having more
fun than anybody--though everyone
was having lots Of amusement.
Altogether the operetta was q
big success and proved the latent
musical ability OF the pupils.
The first appearance OF the high
school glee club and orchestra did
the school much credit.
All seats were sold thirty minutes
before the program began and II II
estimated that the gross receipts
will reach around 1925.

WORK ON GAS PLANT
BEGINS THIS WEEK

In less than 80 days, II all goes
well. Grants Pass will be able to
boast Of one of the most modern gas
plants in the west. Actual construc-
tion will begin this week.
BY deal closed yesterday, A. w.
Butler, who secured a gas franchise
here some weeks ago, purchased for
spot cash from G. Il. Phillips and
George Barrows site for the plant,
paying at the rate Of $1700 an acre
for ground that the owners bought
one year ago at the rate Of $500 an
acre. making this the record advance
for Grants Pass realty. The site
is located In the southeast portion
OF the city at the east end of street.
and lying on the Grants Pass and
Rogue River railroad. A side track
to the site is already under construc-
tion and about half finished.
The gas holder to be constructed
will have capacity Of $4,000 cubic
feet, sufficient for a population Of
10000. The generators will have
capacity Of 2Jo. 900 cubic feet daily.
Crude oil will be the material from
which gas will be generated, and
Mr.. Butler states that the plant will
ho odorless and that the grounds will
be parked and otherwise made At
tractive.
Sixteen carloads Of material arc
now en- route to Grants Pass for the
plant, including 16 miles Of pipe
both main and lateral, and car
load Of cement 10 already on the
ground.
The plant and other property will
cost $4,000 and It's construction will
give employment to many men dur.
ing the summer, both at the plant
! and In placing pipe over the city,
! Mr.. Butler states that he hopes d
have the plant in running order d
30 days or less, the time depending
} on arrival Of material. The material
> was ordered from the east thret
> weeks ago and the first instalment Il
on the way. Mr.. Butler will probabl,

HUNDRED TON PLANT is NOW in
OPERATION
HAUL COKE FROM MERLIN
Growing Event of Ten Years Of
Development Work in Ga
lice District

Tuesday was gala day at Almeda
mine from early In the morning, and
everybody was up to take part in the
cne great event in the history of min
ing in the Galice district, which was
the blowing-in of the 100-ton smell
ter at Z o'clock. There was much en-
thusiasm and abundant loud cheer
ing. At 8 o'clock the first tap was
made and the molten liquid was an
encouraging evidence that the work
of reduction and transformation OF
the rich ore into bright shining metal
was a practical operation. The dem
onstration was made before the eyes
Of large gathering Of the neighbor'
ing miners and visitors, as well as the
employees of the company.
The smelter was built last veal
and 1t is SO constructed that with lit
tie difficulty 1t can be increased IRON
100 tons capacity to 400 tons, ant
this will be done as soon as the auto
truck road, now under construction
from Leland to the mine, can be com
pleted. The necessary coke and 9th
er material needed has, with con
siderable trouble and great expense
been hauled in by wagon from Mer
lin, but when the Leland road is FIN
ished and the auto-trucks put OF
there will be no trouble in transport
ing supplies as fast as they are need
ed at less than one-half the presep
expense.
The successful inauguration of thi
smelter plant is the crowning even
of more than ten years of develop
ment work and the expenditure
more that s250,0O0.

ne strike was made In decom-
posed lense of quartz-porphyry that
occupies space in the contact be-
tween serpentine and andesite. That
this lense is the source Of the gold
there can be no doubt. At its south
end It is narrow and widens very rap
idly as 1t is traced northerly, till 1t
reaches width OF 20 feet, at a
point $50 feet from It's discovery 1t
turns sharply east and still grows
wider for a distance of 200 feet,
where It merges into the andesite
and loses It's identity. The strike and
course of the lense describes semi
circle and measures total length
of $50 feet, every inch of which pro-
duces metallic, gold ranging from
paintings worth only few cents up
to one hundred dollars each. Ma
ture's ponderous muller has beaten
and crushed the top of the lense to
O pulp ready for concentrating
plant, thus making It an easy task to
recover the gold by ground sluicing
and similar methods employed In
placer mining. No powder and drills
are used. Long sluice boxes with
Hungarian rifles and undercurrents
are employed with great success
About eleven tons Of gold concen-
trates are now stored In the bins on
the mine and are estimated to carry
ten thousand dollars per ton.
The top of the lense is exposed by
being mined to a depth of 20 feet
and with depth It holds its values
steadily, and II the cross-cut tunnel
now being driven to strike the rich
nay shoot 200 feet below its out
crop proves up the continuity Of the
values found in the present work
lngs, then the Higgins strike a
once becomes the greatest gold fine
OF the century.

Major League Baseball Clubs
Spend Fortune Annually.
HOW TEAMS GET into SHAPE
Close Watch Must Be Kept on Young
sters - Great Attention Given to
Pitchers = Players Practice Many
Hours Daily.
By TOMMY CLARK.

Those who imagine that the major
league baseball player is busy only for
several months of the year and the rest
of the time goes hunting for recreation
should see the teams at practice long
before the season opens. They go to
work in the morning. like the average
business man, and the way they are
put through their PAGES sends them
home at night footsore and weary and
ready for bed soon after supper.
The spring training of ball team is
one of the most important parts of the
campaign. That is why the owners of
the different teams spend each spring
from $4,000 to $4,000 so that the
men will be ready to jump into the
fight when the bell rings. A flying
start in baseball battle Is half the
fight. To catch the other fellows out
of condition means lead, and there is
nothing so heartbreaking and discour-
aging to team of ball players as a
stern chase. Often we hear about
ball player keeping in condition
throughout the winter by indulging in
gymnastic work or running few
miles day, or he may bowl a game
occasionally or play handball. But all
this kind of work goes for naught.
The only way ball player can eondi-
ton himself is to get out in the hot
sun and toss around the ball and hit
'em out.
When the player reports to his man
ager in the south he is full of ginger.
He has been idle for five months and
Is just aching for a chance to swat the
ball mile. The moment he gets D
ball in his hands he wants to hurl it
across the diamond. But all these
stunts of the enthusiastic player are
