.rhe shepherd Of The HIS .

Occasionally some play strikes a
note that rings out clear and true in
the midst of the commonplace, and
impresses its auditor with the thought
that it was written not for gain. not
for past-time, but because some man
had something to say to other men
and he took this means of expression.
The Shepherd of the Hills" Harold
Bell Wrights dramatization of his
novel of the same name, is the kind
of a play Mr. Wright had felt within
his soul the peace and beauty of the
hills and he wished TO set down their
meaning before him. He made a play
that in plot is compelling. one that
never fails in sincerity The people
who move in it are so human that
the auditor will pick them out for like
and dislike as if he really knows them.
There is the shepherd, the man who
came to the hills to learn. and re-
NAMED to teach Old Matt, who cher
iished the memory of a wrong that
could never be righted; Young Matt,
Hercules of the hills country, whose
strength of heart and soul equaled the
strength of his body; Sammy Lane.
bright and buoyant with the youth of
the hill country, and the other quaint
characters that enliven the play with
humor.
The scene OF the play is in the high
hills of the Ozark mountains. The
mists of the valleys, the glories of the
sunsets. the magnificent vistas from
the SUBMITS have been brought out by
the wonderful ingenuity of the scenic
artist and electricians craft 1t IS the
spirit of the land that Mr. Wright has
caught that makes the play one that
is unique and one that will stand IN a
field OF its own
The Shepherd Of the Hills. will
be the attraction at tie Grand theatre
Saturday. Dec 9Th.
The enormous popularity OF the
Harold Bell Wright novels indicates
that the engagement of this his first
play Mil prove a great popular sue

TWO AMERICAN SHIPS
SAIL FOR TURKISH WATERS

Washington, Nov. 9.--While active
preparations are being made to get the
armoured cruisers Tennessee and Mon
tana headed toward Turkish waters
within forty-eight hours to protect,
Americans, the revenue cutter Unalga,
now at Port Said, probably will be
turned back from the Suez canal and
ordered to rush to the Turkish coast,
where. after a three and one-half days
sail, she could arrive a full fortnight
ahead of the big cruisers.
The unalga is fine new craft She
carries a crew Of seventy men, and. if
the larger vessels of the European
powers should overlook other foreign
ers In their zeal for their own nations,
the Unalga could furnish refuge for 500
or more Americans

LESSON IN NATURAL HISTORY
Peculiar Traits Of Fly, Hen, Cats,
Dogs, Mouse, Snake and Goldfish
How They Act.

A dy on a window pane will crawl
to the top. fly back to the bottom and
crawl up again. This order is seldom
reversed.
Hens scratch for food with tho sun
behind them, the reason being that the
rays reflect on the minute particles.
A blind hen will pick grain and not
miss kernel.
Cats seldom lie with their feet to
the fire. Usually they lie on the loft
side. Dogs lie with their fore paws to
the flre.
A mouse will ignore a food supply
sufficient for a meal and run great
risks to nibble at a wholesale supply.
It will hide at the source OF food sup
ply and not depart therefrom until
actually disturbed. It isn't true that
q mouse runs to a hole at the nrst
alarm.
Find a harmless little snake the

street. was studied the other day By
theosophist who holds that "Tabby"
may possibly represent the reincarna,
ton Of q miser.
For some time after Tabby came to
take up her abode with the divers,
It was noticed that frequently when
. customer left a coin on the counter
for q few seconds 1t mysteriously
disappeared. The divers finally saw
the cat in the act OF stealing to cor
ner with dime and depositing the
coin In a hole. Mrs. Oliver discov.
cred 38 pieces OF money-dimes, nick.
els and pennies-where Tabby had
placed them.
The divers at once set. about to
develop her remarkable traits, finally
placing her in charge OF the cashiers
desk.
When customer enters the shop
now the cat pounces forward and tho
moment that he lays q piece OF mon.
ey on the counter she eagerly picks
It up In her mouth and tests its worth
by the old-fashioned method Of biting.
She will then drop 1t on the counter
to see II 1t rings true.
II any one doubts her ability to test
a coin let him give her a bad piece.
She will throw 1t on the counter and
back away. refusing to touch it. But

leaps over to her little box in the cor.
ner. where she drops 1t. and sits ON

OF late she has taken to receiving
paper money when 1t Is offered, al.
though at first she paid no attention
to this form of exchange. 1t Ii not
thought that Tabby can yet discrim-
mate between bad and good bill.
Neither has she learned to make

Thirteenth census statistics showing
the number of establishments, persons

by deducting the expenses from the

on the investment could not properly
be calculated because of the very de-

The industry here considered was,
in value of products, ninth in rank
among the leading industries in the
census year. It includes not only fac

those doing the whole or part of the
work on materials furnished by others,
as well as shops doing stitching, crimp-

such as overgaiters, moccasins and leg

In 1909 the number of establishments
engaged in this industry was 1918. The
total number of persons engaged was
215,923, of which 1898 were proprietors
and firm members, 1914 salaried officers,
superintendent and managers, and
6s67 male and 5007 female clerks. The
average number of wage earners was
198,297. The capital invested was $685.

$512,797,642. The value added by man.

tween cost of materials and value of
products, was $1sO,O59,429.
In average number of wage earners
the ranking order of the 10 leading
states was: Massachusetts,, S3,O63 !;
New York, 21,627; Missouri, 1896;
Ohio, 1926; New Hampshire, 14,211;
Pennsylvania, 1882; Maine, 6626; Hi
