 Proposals are called for by the Indian office on the erection of the new school house at this point, May I4th being the date set for closing the bids. It is to be hoped that work will start soon thereafter in order that the struc- ture may be completed in time for school next fall. The building is to contain two class rooms and an assembly hall, and will be located near the two dormitories, probably short distance south, in the center of the grounds.

 Indications are that the frosts have killed most if not all the apricots, but other fruit promises a good yield if no further cold snaps come to injure them. All of the orchards have been sprayed and will be gone over again as soon as the blossoms fall, and it is hoped the quality of the fruit may be improved this season.

TUBA NEWS ITEMS

A quantity of cement left after
 the completion of the bridge across the Little Colorado river, has this
 week been hauled to this place,
 the intention being to use it in the
 construction of concrete dams to
 hold surface water at different
 places on the reservation. Super
 visor of Farming M. M. Murphy, who has been here for four months, has selected sites for about fifty reservoirs, and work upon the same will be pushed as soon as preliminary arrangements are com pleted and the field force or ganized. These additional water supplies will be of great benefit to the Navaios, as their f1ocks often have tobe moved quite a distance to secure water in the midsummer season and much of the range is useless by reason of lack of water.
 Mir. Ava C. Shinn, who was recently transferred to this place as additional farmer from Cantone- ment, Okla, after making a hasty survey of the field, did not take kindly to the desert features, and declined to accept the place. He went from here to join his family near Phoenix, and the position remains to be filled by the Indian office.
 Thomas E. Stanton and wife are entertaining their son, Walter C. Stanton and wife, who come from Cincinnati, Ohio, and expect to remain through the summer. MT.

Preston, the trader, left Saturday evening for Flagstaff, with Hopi driver, and expected to return within few days with his new Winton-Six touring car, he having received notice of its arrival in Flagstaff. The addition of an up-to-date touring car to the list of attractions at Tuba will indeed arouse considerable inter- est. MT. Williams, who is to do the carpenter work on the new trading post, has completed a garage at the Preston home while awaiting material for the store building.
 The mail from Flagstaff was twenty-four hours late one day last week, Hosteen Carney, the Navajo who carried the sack, hay ing found it necessary to walk most of the ninety miles back and a portion of the way in to Flag staff on account of his pony giving out.
 The Presbyterian Mission Board has asked for ground upon which to erect chapel at this school, the matter being presented by Rev. John Butler, who for several years has been located near the wash farm.

Good Work of Bureau.

Good Work of Bureau.
 The number of deaths in the mines has been greatly reduced as a result of the testing of explosives under the direction of the bureau of mines. In the year 1908 the coal lines in the United States used two million pounds Of short flame explosives, and at pres. ent nearly seven times that quantity is being used with greater safety, due to the cooperation of the coal opera. tors and the bureau of mines.
 The establishment of an experi. mental coal mine at Brucetown. Pa. twelve miles from Pittsburg. is stiIl another notable achievement of the bureau of mines. It places the United States in advance of other nations with respect to this research and ex- perimental work in mines. Numerous tests are made at this experimental mine, from which many excellent re- suits are obtained
 Still another important work which is conducted under the auspices of the bureau of mines is the rescue of en. tombed miners. Since the creation of the bureau many hundreds of lives have been saved At the big mining disaster In Ohio one of the rescue corps of the bureau of mines arrived at the scene thirty-two hours after the disaster Three men were res. cued who had been given up as dead and allowed to remain in the mine. At another time one man was found alive among 150 dead, and today he is the sole survivor of that terrible ca. tastrophe--due to the splendid work of the rescue corps.
 Before the bureau of mines was made possible by the interest of President Taft which was followed by the necessary legislation for it's es- tablishment. there was no organized effort in saving the lives of entombed miners. Time and again. men have sacrificed their lives in vain attempts to rescue their companions. This un, necessary sacrifice of life has been stopped by the cooperation of the state authorities with the federal res. cuers attached to the bureau of mines. An investigation of the fuel resources of the United States Is also being made with a view of checking the waste. and increasing the efficiency with which fuel is used, This latter phase of the work is part of the practical conservation policy of the Taft administration.

Audience in Presentation Of Beau

Sanford Dodge and his excellent
company presented the dramatizatlon
of Sir Gilbert Parker's popular
novel, "The Right of Way" at the
Temple theatre to 2 very appreciat-
i've audience last night.
Mr.. Dodge fully upheld his reputa-
ton as finished actor in the part
of Beauty" Steele. He handled the
part in manner which leaves no
room for criticism. He held the au-
dience in rapt silence from the time
he made his first appearance until
the final fall of the curtain and num-
erous curtain calls were given him.
Harry Bernard, who took the part
of Joe Portugais, the French Cana
dian whom Steele saved from the
gallows, handled his part in a man.

from the audience and sent the peo-
pie from the theatre talking of him
as clever actor and many pro-
nounced him the equal to Theodore
Roberts, who is considered the great

stage today.
Miss Adele Nickerson, who hand
led the part of Resale, the little
French postmistress of the Drone
mountains, won for herself a warm
spot in the hearts of the Lewiston
theatre goers and will always be a
welcome visitor to Lewiston. Mr..
Dodge is to be congratulated on bav-
ing Miss Nickerson with his company
as leading lady.

of Billy Vantage, the wayword

By Max 5. Hayes.
Rochester, N. Y, Nov. 1e.-In
defeating a resolution to bqr rep
resentatives of religious denomi-
nations from speaking as frater-
nal delegates in future conven-
tions the opinion was expressed
that the message of all religious
bodies should be heard where
they have a bearing on the labor
movement.
At present Presbyterian, Epis-
copalian and Catholic fraternal
delegates are given the privilege
of the floor. Delegates of some
other beliefs, and also those who
are atheistic in their views, have
demurred that their particular
schools of thought are not given
a hearing.
The defeat for the anti-relig-
ious resolution means that the
present fraterna1 delegates will
be heard in future conventions,
and it is probable that fraternal
delegates from other religious
bodies will also be heard in the
next convention if they present
credentials.
There is strong probability
that President John P. White of
the United Mine Workers will
not oppose John Mitchell as vice
president of the A. F. of L. when
election of officers is reached.
Strong pressure is being brought
upon White, who has been urged
to stand for Mitchell's place by a
majority of his delegation, to

HE HAS TO GO
head are settled, Mitchell, so his
friends say, if he is compelled to
go to prison, wants to enter as an
officer of the A. F. of L.
The effort that will be made by
some of the delegates from the
Pacific coast to secure home rule
for their city and state organiza-
tions is domed to failure. The
committee having in hand the
resolutions bearing on the subject
has already acted adversely.
When the report comes on the
floor it will have the solid back
ing of many of the larger interta-
tional unions and the resolutions
will be defeated.
The big unions claim that to
grant central bodies the right to
declare what local organizations
shall or shall not affiliate with
city and state bodies would be to
encourage seeding factions and
throw the international bodies
into constant turmoil, and so
weaken the labor movement.
Some wild and unfounded ru-
more have been sent out from
Rochester that the Socialists are
concocting various schemes to
capture" the A. F. of L. The So
cialists have introduced no reso-
lutions to endorse their party or
their principles, and if any of
them are nominated for office
they will stand as candidates car

Now, what do you wish TO say TO

ed Norton.
In the same instant one OF the men
raised his fist and struck the young
planter In the back OF the neck.

wheeled on him.
Damn him-let him have IT."
IL was mid-afternoon OF the day fol-
lowing before Betty heard OF the at
tack on Norton. She ordered her
horse saddled and was soon out on
the river road with groom in her
wake. Betty never drew rein until
she reached Thicket Point. AS she
galloped into the yard Bruce Caring
ton came from the house.

extending her hand.

And as Darlington quilted the room,
Norton drew himself up on the pill
lows and faced the door. This is
worth several beatings, Betty!" he
exclaimed as she appeared.
He bent to kiss the hand she gave
him, but groaned with the exertion.

saw her eyes swimming with tears.
"What..tears?" and he was much
moved.

loped down the lane and swung her

fierce morning light; she heard Mr.
Bowen's voice, she heard Charley s
voice, she heard another voice-her
own, though she scarcely recognized
It,
"I'll tie the horses, Betty" said
Norton.
He had reached the edge OF the
oaks when from the silent depths OF
the denser woods came the sharp re-
port OF a rifle. The shock OF the bull
let sent the young fellow staggering
back among the mossy and myrtle,
covered graves.
For a moment no one grasped what
had happened only there was Norton
who seemed to grope strangely among
the graves. He had fallen now. Even
as the shadows deepened he was aware
that Betty was coming swiftly toward
him.
I'm shot" he said, speaking with
difficulty.

The tenement mother Is being rele-

the salaried middle class man was re-
Gently drawn, says the Chicago Tri-
bune. The middle class man was
worsted In the comparison. His strug-

keener than that of the laborer who
acknowledged, by the absence Of a
starched collar, that his work was
physical and violent, not mental and
"gentlemanlike." Thus the problem

this difficulty II has been suggested
that men and women of the middle
class curtail their social aspirations.
But this is the wrong remedy. The
mission of the twentieth century is to
breed aspiration. The problem is to
raise the income and standard of liv-
Ing of both the tenement laborer and
middle class man.
