ed at Jamieson's Opera House To-
morrow night. by teachers and stu
dents of the High school. The play
is a decidedly strong and very pop
ular one, its story being founded
upon the civil war of the Sixties.
1t possesses all the richness of ro-
nance: the variety of episode, and
The oddly mingled tragedy and hu-
NOR that characterizes the famous
stories resulting from the National
civil encounter of half a century a.
go. The cast of characters and
synopsis of the play will be found
on page 6 of this issue. All taking
part are thoroughly up in their
lines; many rehearsals having been
held for several months past. The
prices of admission are the popular
ones of Is, 25 and 35 cents. A
large audience should, and unques-
tionably will, greet our teachers and
students and thus lend encourage
ment to their dramatic efforts.

the poultry yard, a silver watch.
with a fob bearing the insignia OF
the Woodmen of the World.
To whom does the watch belong,
what WAS its owner doing on the
premises. and how many, if any, Of
the Frick fat fowls accompanied him
when he left, are questions the
Friek family would like to have an
swered.
Mr.. Frick is not a member Of the
Woodmen of the World, and he
has a perfectly good watch OF his
own; moreover, with eggs at their
present price, he is not desirous
of exchanging any of his plump pull
lets for mere jewelry. He therefore
requests the owner of the Ingersoll
to call and claim his property. The
watch is in good running order. Is

COPPER STRIKE STILL
UNSETTLED At MINES

Houghton, Mich.-Efforts to end the
strike of copper miners by concilia-
ton failed. John B. Densmore, OF the
department or labor, so announced az
ter a final effort to bring the warning
interests together. He did not hesi-
tate to blame his failure on the un-
compromising attitude of the mine
owners.
The rock that split the negotiations
and shattered the hopes of peace was
the question of recognition of the un-
ion.
In a nutshell, the question was
whether the union men should go back
to work with or without discrimina-
tion-the companies refused to dc
anything but discriminate against
members of the union" Mr.. Densmore
said.
The unions last word was an offer
to withdraw the Western Federation
from the field, its place to be taken
by a union affiliated with the Michi-
gan State Federation of Labor, the
United Mine Workers, or some similar
body. This was rejected by the com
panies.

MORGAN QUITS BOARDS
Step is in Direction of Ending Inter.
Iockino Method,

New York.-The withdrawal of J. P.
Morgan & Co. from more than a score
of great corporations and the state
ment by George F. Baker, an almost
equally dominant figure in American
finance, that he soon would take sim
liar action, gave Wall street thrill
that almost brought trading on the
stock exchange to halt.
1t was predicted by men in Wall
street who have followed the trend of
events in finance and policies in re-
cent times that this meant the ending
of the system of interlocking director
ates, which has been bitterly attacked
by members of the present Washing
ton administration and members of
congress who have been fighting what
they termed the money trust"

field. Oregon. Under Mar
tiaI Law.

Copperfield, Or.-Martial law was
declared at Copperfield by Colonel B.
X. Lawson. He was supported by five
members of the coast artillery. Miss
Fern Hobbs, private secretary to Gov
ernor West, demanded that the saloon
men in the council resign, and they
refused. She then left town and mar
tial law was declared, all the saloons
were seized, and the city officials
placed under arrest.
The mayor, H. A. Stewart; City
Recorder Clark and Councilmen Vie
gand, Warner and Woodbury., who are
in the saloon business, are under ar
rest
Miss Fern Hobbs, Governor Vests
private secretary, did not declare mar
tial law. Her only connection with
the case was to demand of the mayor
and other city officials that they sign
blank designations. This they declin-
ed to do, and then it was that Colonel
Lawson took control and read to the
assembled multitude the proclama-
tion of martial law which he had
brought with him from Salem.
A mass meeting of citizens was call
ed by Colonel Lawson and he appoint
ed a citizens committee to conduct
the civil affairs of the city until such
time as martial law has passed.
Colonel Lawson flatly refused to
recognize an Injunction against Gov
ernor Vests martial law order, which
had been sent by telegraph to Special
Deputy Sheriff U. S. Jackson by Cir
cult Judge Anderson, of Baker.

A young matron Of our town has
occasionally in case Of sickness had
the help of an old negro woman, who
was at one time a slave in Virginia
and raised by white folks" there.
Aunt" Fannie pays frequent Wis
its to this home to look after the
welfare of her white folks as she
was accustomed to do in the days Of
yore, at which times Mrs. - shows
her the news of the great world war
as told in photographs in Leslie's and
Golfers Weekly magazines. Sometime
ago she told "Aunt Fannie" that we
might have to take part in the great
conflict if Canada was attacked and
could not withstand the attack etc,
ETC., leaving "Aunt" Fannie with the
germ of the idea in her mind that
we might have to join in the war.
The idea evidently grew to large
proportions in the next few days as
will be seen by her "scare."
Mrs. told her three small child
rem that they could go for a walk
around the block one morning, and
they took advantage of her unaccus-
toned lenience to wander quite dis
lance from home, ending at "Aunt"
Fannie's house.
"Aunt" Fannie was deep in a tub
of clothes, or rather her arms were,
and she demanded very promptly,
what you chilluns doin' way down
heah? Does your mama know you is
come heah?
The children answered in baby
talk, yves goin' to wart!''
"Aunt" Fannie's mind was in just
the right frame to receive news of
this character, and, shaking the water
off her hands, she made a "bee-line''
for her house and commenced, with
shaking hands, to dress in her "best"
and making a little bundle of her
most treasured belongings, was ready
to leave home las she had seen pic
lures of Belgian refugees doing)
when her daughter-in-law came in and
inquired as to her excitement.
When she learned the truth she was
very much tickled and told "Aunt'
Fannie to come out and listen to the
children again, as they were only say
ing yves goin' to walk" as so it
proved ga little knowledge is some
times a great curse" Is it not? G.
