In a moment there was a roar of thun-
der-the Rain Fairy was awake once
more. Lightning played across the sky
and down came the rain in torrents. So
Etel shook the Troll out of the bag and
dashed down the mountain as fast as
his legs would carry him.
1t was dawn when he reached the
plains. but what a beautiful sight met
his eyes!~ As far as he could see the
country was reviving after the rain.
The brooks ran in swelling streams, the
fields looked fresh and green. the cattle
waded about as IL enjoying the damp
ness, and the whole face of the land
seemed to be smiling in gladness. So
the next week there was a big wedding
for Olga and Etel, the two farms were
turned into one big one. and here they
all lived happily for many years.

Polls Juvenile Believes Stage. Gives
Worker Career, Says Julia Murdock
Harrington Gibbs Leaped From
Sage Brush Into Theater
and Became Success.

~ lights is the leap that Harring-
ton Gibbs. the young leading
juvenile Of the Poll Players took
when he entered the theatrical field.
When the copper fever broke out out
and Nevada was filed with prospectors,
gamblers. and the usual human rfff-raff
that follows the high tide of fortune
hunters. young Gibbs. who had been
sent West for his health, from his home
town of Scranton. Pa, probably had no
more intention Of going on the stage
permanently than he now has of start.
ing on a trip to Mars. How he finally
adopted the stage a. a profession
makes a yarn that IL mighty interest
ing, as he tells 1t.
Mr.. Gibbs made his initial bow to
Washington audiences early in the Pres
ent season of the Poll Players. His
first role was that Of the newspaper re-
porter in THE Man Of ths Hour Last
week he played the part of Tom Pierce,
the wounded football hero in The Col
lege Widow" and this week he will be
seen as Handsome Charley in THE Girl
Of the Golden West
Unele's Success Drew
Juvenile To Theater.
Young Mr.. Gibbs ambition toward
things theatrical was inspired by the
success Of his uncle, Robert Patton
Gibbs, whom theatergoers, will remem-
Der as Noel. the family friend In the
original production Of Madame y"
and in other well-known characters, no.
tably that Of Gecko IN the original pro-
duction of "Trilby," a part which he
created, and a leading part In THE
Ghetto in which he starred with
Kyrle BeIlew and other well-known
actors.
In his boyhood days young Gibbs had
taken part In many amateur theatrical af-
fairs arranged by his school friends. but
had never thought seriously of adopting
the stage as a profession until his re-
turn from the West. Arriving In Ne
vada at the time the mining fever was
at its height. young Gibbs went into
business in Ely. a city which was the
center of the copper boom. While IN
this town he took part and helped to
promote a number OF amateur enter
tainments. and II was largely through
his efforts that the first church In Nc
Gill, New. was built
Seeing the need Of house Of worship
IN this town, which had a saloon to
every ten Inhabitants. and a gambling
house to every saloon. but no church.
Mr. Gibbs and a number Of citizens OF
the better class, in McGill, gave an en-
tertainment In which all of the women
Of the town participated. The proceeds
were sufficient to build very slightly
church, which still stands.

WANT AMOUNT Of
INDIAN FUNDS
SENATORS AGREE ON AMEND
MENT TO APPROPRIATION BILL
-REVoLUTlON METHODS NOW.

Washington, June 9.-The senate
Indian affairs committee today agreed
upon an amendment to the Indian ap-
preparation bill, which would require
a complete investigation of all eX-
penditures Of the Indian bureau; Il
detailed accounting for every cent
spent of the $1O,OO0,000 or more to be
appropriated for the coming year.
and revolutionize the method OF ad-
ministering Indian trust funds and
annual appropriations in the future.
Another amendment agreed to by
the committee, to prohibit any con-
tracts with Indians relating to tribal
funds or property in the hands OF
the government, unless authorized by
the United States, is expected to
materially affect many contracts
made with the Cherokee and Chick
asaw Indians by James F. McMurray
of Oklahoma. 1t was asserted by
Senator Ashurst before the senate
lobby committee last week that Nc
Murray's contracts, carrying 10 per
cent contingent fee, would have net
ted him $3,5OO,OOO. Members of the
committee were not certain tonight
to what extent the contracts would be
affected.
The provision for a detailed &C
counting of all Indian funds is the
result of persistent demands by
members of the committee for infor-
nation as to how the lump sum
Indian funds were expended. Sena-
tor Lane of Oregon Saturday threat
ened to oppose the present bill unless
such detailed information was pro-
duced. A member of the presidents
economy and efficiency commission
with Senators Lane, Owen and Town
send, prepared the amendment re
quiring detailed accounting of Indian
affairs in the future.

DISMISSED Writ
Of MANOAMUS
COURT HELD THAT INTENTION
OF AMENDMENT WAS TO ELECT
ALL COMMISSIONER ALIKE.

This morning in the district court
Judge Russell denied tn writ OF man
damus filed by City Commissioners
Bridgman and Slaughter to compel
the mayor to sign the salary warrants
of the commissioners for $50 per
month that was paid to them under
the previous administration before
the amendments to the charter were
adopted at the recent election. In
denying the writ the court held that
the amendment extended the term OF
the commissioners under the old pro-
visions of the charter and that it was
the intention to elect commissioners
from all wards whose duties should
be alike and that they should receive
a like compensation.
Summed up, the court decided that
il was not the intention of the amend
ment to pay two commissioners $2
per meeting and two members $3.50
and for that reason the writ was dis
missed.
Just what action will be taken by
the commissioners has not been de-
termined, but it is thought that the
case will be appealed.
