WENAHA LAND NOT
OPENED TO ENTRY
THE BIG FOREST RESERVE STILL
BEING HELD INTACT.
Applications of Thirty Home
seekers Not Granted, But
Hold Prior Right.

Oft-repeated news dispatches about
formal opening in the Wenaha for
est reserve few miles from Looking
Glass in Union county, have been In
error thus far, but movement is on
to bring the township open to general
fling. 1t has been said that the
township will be thrown open to pub
lio entry In few weeks. on the home
stead plan, hut this is NOT true. For
some reason the applications Of some
80 homeseekera in that township have
not been allowed. and to give these
homesteadsrs an opportunity to make
proof now. after having lived there.
some of them for many years. is said
to be the purpose Of the proposed plan
Of the forest service. Wilbur +.
Brook, Portland man. who has
homestead says that there are about
so good claims 10 the township, after
giving preference to the 80 squatters
who, it is admitted. will have prior
rights. The present plan is to allow
filings through permission Of the for.
est reserve department. and not the
General Land Office branches. but Mr..
Brook has learned that there is
movement afoot to have the entire
district thrown omen to entry.
It is asid that many of the claims
would easily bring $4,000. on day of
proof. The whole matter is rather
vague, and the only facts known pub
lioly SO far are that good claims are
there. that the 80 hometeaders now on
the land will get arst filings rights.
and that the public at large can file

1T Is not native pest, but one that
was introduced into California along
with imported potatoes. 1t has spread
most rapidly in southern California,

time, and as 1t is much easier to keep
such pests out than to put them out

Some idea of the enormous sum
spent by society women in Chicago
on personal adornment may be gath
cred from figures which were given
at the half-yearly convention of the
Chicago Dressmakers' Club the other
day According TO these statistics,
several of the leaders of society spend
no less than $4,000 a year on dress,
while one hundred of the women who
form the elite of the city are said
to have yearly expenditure of $780,
600 apiece. Ten thousand others
spend a mere trife of $4,000 per an
mum to deck themselves. In brief,
enough money is spent in the year at
their dressmakers', etc, by society

Yes marriage is failure because cut out the

And love the society of those who feed us on

who turn a search light all faults and fraltes!
The reason that consider their families bur-

praise. The reason that women are dissatisfied, and
complain of the notony of domestic life is because
their husbands pay them compliment.
The reason that the average home is battle-ground
husbands and wives hand each other biting
criticisms instead of soft soap. The that

man is bound to have woman to jolly him along

$2O,OOO,OOO CHANGED
HANDS ON Big Series
Statistieians' Figures Show Great
Amount Of Money Exchanged in
Blue Ribbon Baseball Event.
BETTING ON GAMES NOT HEAVY

New York, Oct. 1s.-The cost in
money to the public at large during
the recent worlds series today was
placed at close to s1,oo0.o0o by statis-
ticians. who also declared that $4,000
900 changed hands as the result OF the
blue ribbon event in baseball.
The fends also figured that $4,000
worth of working time was lost by
the working people who attended the
ball games and the millions who stood
around the scoreboards throughout the
country for more than two hours each
day.
The money spent for admission to
the ball parks, Of course. was the big
gest item of expense in actual none
tary outlay. The National Commission
reported a total attendance of 15o,ss2
and total receipts of s325,sso for the
first five games. To this figure must
be added at least s150,00o, the differ
ence between the amount received by
the two clubs from the sale Of tickets
and the amount paid by the fans to the
spectators for them.
The pre-series betting was not heavy,
but after the first game was over the
pltnging that always has characterized
a worlds series combat became appar-
ent. Later in the series the men who
had backed the Giants "hedged." and
added TO the wagered total. Perhaps
81 900, 900 is the total bet in Philadel-
phia- When the small and large bets
made in nearly every city and hamlet
in the United States is figured in, the
total reaches around the 100000
