POWER Is IN BAD SHAPE

WINNIPEG, May 30.-The strike
of tn eboilermakers and machinists
on the Grand Trunk Pacific, which
began October 10, 1911, is still being
prosecuted with vigor. A large num-
Der of strike breakers have been en-
ployed, but the company is having
serious difficulty in keeping up it's
motive power.
Recently there has. been an agita-
ton among the other trades to assist
the two organizations involved, owing
to the fact that indications point to
the company attacking the other or

pealed to, to secure a conference with

Massachusetts Will Reduce Work.

HOLYOKE, Mass, May 3o.-As a
result of a 1870 advance made in the
textile industry, the paper manufac-
turers commenced to show activity
looking toward increases in wages and
betterment of conditions in the pa
per mills.
A notice was recently posted in the
paper mills of the Croker Nc lwain
company to the. effect that beginning
May Is there would be a three-shift
crew to operate the machines, each
crew to work eight hours. The Tay-
lor-Burt company followed suit.
This change of working plan was
not followed with cut In wages, the
men working eight hours receiving
the same wages as formerly when
working II and Is hours.
It is given as a further reason for
this concession that organizatino
among the paper mill workers has
been steadily advancing and that the
mills are fairly we'll organized at the
present time.

PATIENTS BALK AT SNORER
Human Foghorn Drives Sleep From
Persons Confined in Hospital Ward
at Cincinnati. o.

Cincinnati-The almost incessant
snoring of patient in Ward E of the
city hospital has caused revolt
among the fifty or more other patients
confined in that ward For about
twenty-five hours out of each twenty
four James Ramsey, a sufferer, sleeps.
His sleep is accompanied by deep
sonorous sound which not only dis
turbs every patient in the ward, but
can be distinctly heard in the CORR.
doris and adjacent wards.
For the love of Mike, take that
human foghqrn out of here!" one pa
tient affected with a nervous dis
ease said to the head nurse.
I'm going 'dippy,' know" another
patient said, after trying to sleep, but
being unable to do so ON account of
the noise. MAKE that fellow turn
over on his side or we will never get
any sleep"

NOTED OLD RANCHES

modern idea, but few (you can count
them on one hand) are almost as they
were half century ago.
Such a place is the great tract now
known as the TETON Ranchos," the
original Gen, Beale rancho which lies
well at the bottom of the San Joaquin
valley, in the elbow formed by the
Sierra Nevada and the Coast range.
The recent sale of this vast pastoral
empire to group of Los Angeles land
buyers makes the sensation of the
year in California real estate circles.
Forty years ago, in his interesting
volume, California, Book for TRAY
elers and Settlers" Charles Nordhoff
declared the TETON to be the most
magnificent estate in single hand
in America" And Mr.. Nordhoff, who
was the. correspondent of the New
York Herald had traversed continents
in the service of his paper
The TETON Ranches, with their more
than $4,000 acres of land, constitute
one of the very few great tracts of the
old days which has not through all
the years lost a whit of it's identity
Today this landed empire, now, as for
nearly half a century past an undi-
vided principality, is in essentially
the same condition in which it was
when Mr.. Nordhoff visited the spot as
the friend and guest of it's owner, Gen.
Edward F. Beale.
Boosting an incalculable wealth of
undeveloped agricultural and horticul-
tural possibilities, together with GER
tain, though unestimated, mineral and
timber resources, the enormous hold
ing has remained during all the inter-
vening years what it originally was,
live stock rancho. With fine SEN
timent that has taken small reckoning
of financial exploitation, the heirs of
the late Gen. Beale have chung stead
lily to the old regime in their manage
ment of the great estate.
The name of Gen. Beale, scholar,
warrior, gentleman-the companion of
Kit Carson in the lively days of the
southwest, and the greatest of all the
surveyors of transcontinental roads
is indissolubly linked with the his

Social Side of the journey

the figure has now grown to some
thing like $5,000-it became fmpractic.
able to know everybody. In a ship
of the size of a modern liner there are
now so many places where passen-
ger may go other than his stateroom
that If he wants to be exclusive he
can readily accomplish his desire.
On the Titanic he could have had
even private promenade deck all to
himself. On the Olympic you have
the choice of four decks for your stroll
and if anybody is looking for you he
may have to visit the main dining
room, the restaurant, the tearoom the
gymnasium, the two open air cafes
and the big companionways on the va
rious decks before he finds you. There
was time when besides the one
promenade deck one had to go only
to the smoking room or the dining
room or perhaps the writing room to
find some one else.
One result of the increased size Of
the ship and of her passenger list is
that nowadays you can cross the ocear
without making a single acquaintance
and there are really some who con
slider this an advantage.

German Apache Plans Fail

in sight of the trio, who were trying to
make off heavily laden with booty, an
exchange of shots followed One of
the robbers dropped dead with bull
let through his head. The others
threw away their loot and fed close
ly pursued.
One of the band was slightly wound
ed in the leg, and, this interfering
with his movements, he tried to COM
nit suicide. He only wounded him
self, and his companion stopped long
enough to send a bullet crashing
through his brain before continuing
his own fight.
For a time it seemed that the third
man would escape, but he was finally
cornered in a patch of woods and shot
to death by the policeman, who then
calmly reported to the station the me
cessity of killing three robbers who
had resisted arrest"

San Joaquin Valley Acres Now
in Business Hands.
TETON Ranches, With More Than 27e,-
600 Acres of Land, Constitutes
One of the Very Few Great
Tracts Left.

Los Angeles, Cal.-One by one the
great ranches of old California, the i'm
mense grants of early days, the lordly
domains of wheat and barley mag
mates, have melted away before the re-.
lentless sweep of progress. For half
been going on, the passing of each
vast rancho marking a swift epoch in
the history of some section of the
state. The subdivision of the first
great rancho in California may be said
to have marked the passing of feud-
alism Of the soil in this western world,
for the old California was in truth al
most land Of overlords, and even
supported something like a peasantry
population all its own. And yet some
the pioneers, both Spanish and Ameri-
can, and of the pastoral system of that
early day. There was then known no
such thing as the system Of small
farms and comparatively dense agri-
cultural settlements which marked,
and now more than ever mark, the
east and central west. In California
land had to be acquired, if acquired at
all, in immense tracts.
Between Los Angeles and San Fran
cisco, here and there in the mighty
reaches of the San Joaquin valley, and
interspersed like exaggerated white
squares on the curious checkerboard
whose black squares, representing
acres of something that perchance may
be called intensive" agricultural de-
velopment, greatly predominant, may
still be found few Of the oldest
ranches of old days. Most of them, it

Attitude of the Captain of Modern
Ocean Liners Toward Passen-
gers Entrusted to His Care.

New York-Ever since the Titanic
disaster there has been much discus
sion relative to the extent to which
the officers of big liner mingle So
cially with the passengers. The
statement has been made that many
captains of big ships nowadays pay a
great deal of attention to the social
side of a voyage and spend great
deal of time promenading with pas
sengers or chatting with them in the
lounge or the smoking room when
their attention ought to be devoted to
the ship.
Persons who have been crossing the
ocean ever since the days a 5000 ton
ship was called "leviathan" say that
the amount Of general sociability on a
ship has steadily diminished with the
increase in the size of vessels. In the
days when there were three long ia
bles in the dining saloon, with the
captain presiding over the middle one
the purser at the head of another and
the doctor commanding the third, the
captain frequently knew everybody by
name. Anyhow, everybody knew the
captain and said Good morning" to
him, for in those days everybody in
the frat cabin got to know everybody
else.
When marine architects began SUI
proposing deck upon deck and the
first cabin accommodation of ship
stretched to 200 and 300, and then to
600 and accommodations became SO
luxurious that one could pay $1,000 OF
] mere for trip across the Atlantic

WHERE BRAINS ARE CHEAP.
Low Range of Salaries Paid to High
er Class of Educators in the
United States.

New York.-The range Of salaries
for the heads and faculties of state
aided institutions of higher learning
in this country is given in bulletin Isl
sued by the United States bureau Of
education
According to this authority one can
see that Bert Williams, the negro
comedian. can make a great deal more
money than even the highest type of
college president The best paid head
of any institution of this class is the
president of the University of Califor-
MIA, who receives $4,000 year and
house. The presidents of Illinois uni
versity and Cornell university each re-
ceive $4,000 year and house, while
the president Of the University Of
Minnesota gets $4,000 without a
house.
From these figures the presidents
salaries run down as low as $4,000.
The salaries of the faculty members
range from $50 year for the least
paid tutor to $4,000 year for the
best paid full professor, both extremes
being touched at Cornell.
The bureau of educations bulletin
shows that the United States now con-
tains exactly 100 universities and
other institutions of higher education
which depend in considerable measure
on the state or federal government for
their support.
OF these, sixteen are agricultural
and mechanical colleges for negroes
Four of these state aided institutions
have more than 400 members on their
faculties-namely the University of
California, with faculty of 421; the
University of Illinois, with $50; Cor
nell university, with 652, and the Uni
versity of Wisconsin, with 4S6.
