Richard Pearson Hobson gave a lee
ture at the Christian Church Wednes-
day evening on "The Country's Des-
tiny" Owing to the unexpectedness
Of Mr.. Hobson's appearance and the
inclemency of the weather the audi
ence was very small one, but it was
very appreciative of the fineness of
the address.
Mr.. Hobson, began his address by
stating that the world is still in a
fJtsaat1ve period in as much as man
is just getting control of natures
forces for the common good. This
control is gotten, not by Staying, but
by development; the future great man
is not the destroyer but the man who
serves.
Then Mr. Hobson spoke eloquently
on war, the great destroying influence
of the world. He proved the truth of
the old saying, 'In time of peace, pre-
pare for war;" by showing the need
of maintaining large navy.
eve now" said Mr.. Hobson, "hold
only fourth rank among naval powers,
and our navy is being increased only
one battleship each year" This will
mean that in five years time, when
/ by the opening of the Panama canal
! the Monroe Doctrine is bound to be
tested to it's limit, we will have few
ships, little naval power and thereby
are apt to be plunged into a great
war.
The maintenance of a navy does not
necessitate war-it is merely pre-.
cautionary measure as are locks or
the doors of a dwelling. In fact 9
navy is a preventative measure il
that it shows our strength, and gives
effective backing to our "hands-off'
policy.
If war comes it will come as the re
suit of criminal neglect in gaining
control of the seas.
From the discussion of the navy
problem, Mr.. Hobson went on to thu
second destructive agent in America
the use of alcoholic liquors. All hi!
statements were proved by scientific
investigations, and based on oficia
statistics.
Not only is the present generation
suffering from it's effects, but it's con
tinued use assures the complete de
generacy of the race, the downfall O.
America and great wrong done hu
mainly.
While Mr.. Hobson's lecture wa.
pessimistic it was the pessimisn
based on facts, and in no sense j;
cheap cynicism.
He stated the problems to be solves
and pointed out their possible solu

Senior Class Play
Staged at Armory
Friday Evenings Production The FL
nancial And Social School
Success of 1913
ENJOYABLE SPECIAL NUMBERS
Rendition Is A Credit to High School
Students And Miss Cora
Anderson

The Class Play, presented by the
class of 1913 at the Armory last Fri
day evening, shares with the Cantata
the honor of being the big school
event CT the year. The members OF
the class who made up the cast, had
made strenuous efforts to make good
in their various parts, and merlted
the appreciation shown by the audi
ence.
While all parts were we'll rendered
some of the actors showed great clev-
erness and versatility.
Maude Colville as Portia and Helen
Stewart as Nerissa did splendid team
work as we'll as individual work
throughout the performance. Some
of the High School boys seemed a bit
panied at the truths Portia had dis
covered about their characters-some
wouldn't even admit they were truths.
Portia was particularly good in the
Court Scene. In this scene the audi
ence was introduced also, to The Pro-
fessor, Allen Fraser whose eXamlna-
ton of the place where Antonio's
brain should be, made decided APP
peal to the audience sense of humor.
Howard Mason as Antonio the hero
of many foot ball scrap was a JOY to
all beholders. He showed an ease in
personation and a lack of embarrass-
ment that pronounces him an emby-
ronic Robert Edeson.
Speaking of the lack of embarrass-
ment, the unabashed way in which
Jas. Frazier used his pony" in the
examination seemed to indicate past
/ knowledge in the use of such an ar
+ ticle But far be it from us to hint
at such a thing. However we do ex-
press admiration of the way James
played his part-it was very appeal
ing to all the members of the weaker
sex.
Lois Gold as Abbie Threedice, a
teacher, was decidedly "spicy." Miss
Gold adopted the professional "school
nam" attitude with surprising nat
uralness considering her utter lack of
anything like spinster snappishness in
real life.
Miss Annie Allen as Polly was a
delightfully."- flirtatious little body
quite belieing any good old Scotch an
cestry, and always on the verge of a
giggle-or jig.
Perhaps the most difficult part from
an artistic standpoint was that of
Launcelot Gobbo, taken by Rodney
Wells. The buffoonery of this char
acter was well portrayed although
any one knowing Rodney's past would
not expect him to play the clown with
such truthfulness.
The other parts were taken very
creditably by Vera Kuenzler, Bernice
Hodge, Harold Meyers, Florence John
son, Ralph Stegner, Genie Ashford
Herman Steabner and Milton Johnson
Several very good specialties were
introduced between the Acts, ano
proved most entertaining. These were
we'll rendered readings by Elizabeth
Stockton and Howard Mason and a
delightful whistling solo by Ellen
Horn. Miss Horr's powers as whist.

solos foretell bright future for hel

The whole production of The Mer.
chant of Venice Up-to- Date was inter
esting and entertaining, not only be-
cause of the local interest felt in al
high school affairs, but because of &C

Z The successful development of the
Nine Mile district ore bodies and
those of the adjoining slopes should
be subject Of especial concern and
encouragement to the leading citizens
of Wallace by reason of the important
and direct business tribute they must
pay to this city, It Is decidedly graft
flying to ME to see such manifestly
important and permanent ore depos-
its opened up In this division of the
Occur d'Alene field, for In the face of
adverse criticism by high authorities
as to the ore carrying value of the
formation in which these deposits oc-
cur, have for several years advocat-
ed its probable merit where sufficient
ly strong assuring conditions prevail
Facts, Regardless of Theories.
At this date there are three ore
bodies on Nine Mile creek that are ds-
veloped to producing stage that are
giving employment to 500 men. ana
with limited milling facilities are pro-
ducing and shipping high grade con-
centrates and crude ore at the rate Of
5000 tons a month and other ore bod
les sufficiently opened to indicate that
with a little further developments they
will be able to duplicate this output,
and when you add to these a(number
of flattering prospects In a more pri-
mary stage OF development, 1t Is en-
inently evident that this district is 60
ing to greatly broaden the profitable
productive area of the Coeur d'Alene
formations, in spite of adverse criti-
cism to the contrary,
The principal Nine Mile ore deposits
are situated within or very near the
upper limits of the Prichard forma-
tion that was supposed by high au-
thorities to be of too flexible nature
for the circulation Of ore solutions and
the formation of continuous ore chan
nels.

success is measured by the advan-

Business men of Wallace are gener-
ally prosperous and they look forward
to increased prosperity with the
steady development of the surround :
ing territory. They have no feeling
antagonistic to business men of other
towns On the contrary they enter
tain for them the most cordial gooi

at hand to increase the prestige Of
Wallace as trade center In this
they are not different from the bust
ness men of neighboring towns, the
only difference being that Wallace

they do not.

1t has now been almost 30 years
since Colonel w. r.. Wallace made
camp in the little basin now occupied
by the city of Wallace, took brief
survey of the surrounding country, its
drainage and the few mineral discov-
cries and promptly arrived at the con-
clusion that right here would be built
the business metropolis of the Occur
dAlene district and that this district
would eventually rival the greatest
mineral producers of the west. He
thereupon located the original Wal
lace townsite and laid the foundation
for the city which today, in the midst
of this great and prosperous district
presents complete realization of his
prophetic vision of 30 years ago.
Old timers will recall how the col
1ncl pinned his faith to Nine Mile,
which he confidently predicted would
rival Canyon creek as a mineral pro-
1ucer. 1t required many weary years,
but 1t may safely be said now that
the colonels expectations in that
quarter are in fair way to become
true 1t seems only yesterday that
Nine Mile was a canyon Of prospect,
while today from 5 to cars of ore or
concentrates are shipped out of the
canyon daily, 500 men are On the pay
rolls of productive mines and sew
eral hundred men are employed IN the
development of other properties.
The opening of Nine Mile has given
pronounced impetus to business In
every line in Wallace, and as the de
velopment continues and Transports
! tion facilities improve, as they surely
| will, the direct benefits to this city
will Increase. This splendid tributary
to this city adds prestige to Wallace
and emphasizes the truth of the early
prediction of the founder of the town

SINKING SATISFACTORY
ON THE UNITED LEAD
MARKED IMPROVEMENT IN ORE

BELOW WATER LEVEL.

Reports from the work of the Unit
ed Lead company just below Osburn,
are of most encouraging nature.
The company is sinking on the ledge,
some 1000 feet back in the tunnel.
There is said to be a marked I'M
provement in the character of the ore

ed with much interest. The belt of
ore lying south of the South FORK,
and upon (which much development
has been done from west of Big creek

unknown below the level of the river.

COMPRESS TURNING
OUT BETTER BALE

An Eagle reporter went through the
Bryan Press Company's plant this
morning and was pleased to note the
wonderful Improvement in the class
of the bales of cotton turned out.
The bales are symmetrical in appear
ance and size, better class OF bag
ging is used and they are greatly i'm
proved in every respect as a result of
the agitation by the farmers for a
better bale. The reporter was also
pleased to note that the compress has
a pump OF its own, and while it used
city water last year, as 1t is better
for its work, yet on account of the
scarcity of water in the city 1t is
using its own well. In this manner
the compressing Of 500 bales a day
means a saving OF 5000 gallons Of
water TO the city supply each day.
1t has already compressed over
1000 bales this season and has large
force busy all the time, moving with
