THE FALL OF WARSAW

m HE fall Of Warsaw before
VI the assaults of the Teu.
ton armies is one of the
most notable happenings of the
European war. II has a re-
markable significance although
that significance is probably
not so great as the Germans
profess to believe. That it
means the end of the war with
Germany triumphant before
the winter is the prediction
sent out from Berlin. The
very fact that the German
people entertain this view in
dicates the tremendous moral
effect that the victory has had
upon them.
Warsaw, lying near the Ger
man frontier, strongly fortified
and being a railroad center,
made an ideal base of opera
tions for the Russians in their
campaign against Germany
and Austria, and its fall is a
severe blow to the czar. It's
occupation by the Germans
forms a strong protection for
the kaiser in the east and per-
mits him to withdraw hundreds
of thousands Of troops and
send them against the allied
army in the west.
The war has been in pro-
gress for a year and the advan-
tage seems to have been all
with Germany. Her armies oc-
cupy Belgium, northern France
and Russian Poland and no
hostile band has set foot over
her borders. Does the fall OF
Warsaw presage a year Of still
greater advantages?

AN UNPARDONABLE
OFFENSE

H. HE water commission is to
" be commended for its de-
cision to prosecute the
man who broke open a man
hole on the pipe line of the
gravity system that he might
supply his tanks with water
easily. Pendleton has invested
something like a quarter of a
million dollars in this system in
order that her citizens may
drink without endangering
their health. Outside of the
principle involved in breaking
the lock off personal property,
the offense is one that should
not be condoned. Such an act
exposes the entire water sys-
TEN to contamination and, if
allowed to pass unheeded,
might result in serious conse-
quences.

royal reception they would meet with
of the legion of fine friends he had
in Alberta and Manitoba and Sas-
.atchewan, and of the fine cities OF
the great northern prairies and OF
the joys of the northern summers,
but it was not for them. They were
utterly disconsolate and discouraged,
and it was with difficulty they
could overcome the feeling while be-
fore an audience playing.
Finally they crossed the border,
had the usual turn at inspectors,
chatting with them to judge of their
sanity or criminality as they do with
all passengers crossing the line, and
they were for the first time in a
foreign land, and sick at heart.
Things came to pass just as Mr.. Cos
grove had described, and the girls
just had to acknowledge it was finer
than they expected. They met some
of the finest people in the world,
and the drives and the new friends
and the entertainment offered them
were just too good to be missed. And
to make it all better, this kind OF
thing kept up and kept growing bet
ter. Assurances travelled faster than
they did, and people seemed waiting
for them to arrive. The season came
to an end all too soon, and they had
to 'fess-up that Canada had been
kind to them in the superlative de-
gress. The next season they went
back, and when they got off the
train the first time in Canada they
felt so gay they wanted to whoor

and yell and they did.

But what's the use to string out a
story-a city was being built on the
great plains of the northland, that
was just as great as they were fine.
The prairie sod was surveyed and
staked for the streets, the lots, the
public square, the public buildings,
the water mains, the sewer lines,
the telephone cables, the pavements,
the parks, the curbing-well, every
thing was laid out on the sod and
on the blueprints before lick was
done to break sod for building.
The underground work of the city
was all dons before anyone was al
lowed to build. Then when build
ing was started, the water service
and the sewer service and all the
other service was there from the
first moment, and one tearing-up
was all that was needed, and when
the streets were completed they were
completed in fact and there was no
more trouble and expense. A great
city sprang into existence with un-
told wealth and beauty and COM
merce, and when the Palmatier sis
ters played there they played to their
future friends and neighbors but
they did not know it. Naturally
enough, the kind of men who built
and populated such city would
know good thing when they saw
it. and the Palmatiers were good
thing-five of them.

PALMATIER SISTERS MARRIED

Blackfoot people will remember

five of them, and they played such

They might never have been
known to more than a few people
had it not been for J. A. Cosgrove,
a. theatrical man who CHANGED to at
tend a cheap play one night in San
Antonio, Texas. He sat beside a
man who was connected with the
show, and when the overture started,
CosgrOve looked around and then
stood up a moment to see where
the music came from. Seeing that
it proceeded from five girls seated
down in front of the stage, out of
sight, he sat down, almost holding
his breath for fear of losing a note.
AT the close Of the number he turn
ed upon the man at his side and
said, What is the matter with you
Why don't you put your orchestra
up on the stage and the actors down
in the hole. The idea of conceal
ing such a setting as that" After
the play, Cosgrove went to the hotel
where the Palmatier girls stopped,
and waited for an hour or so until
they ate their midnight meal and
came in. He was introduced to them
at little after midnight, and he
found they were playing in that
measley theater for eighteen dollars
week and were not getting the
eighteen d.llars regularly. The r
clothes were shabby and dirty, and
they bore all the earmarks of fine
girls under the stress of proverty.
In less than two hours he had them
signed up for season in the north.
The next day he went out with them
and spent $1400 buying them some
thing to wear and some new instru-
ments.

trip; they played; they liked it; the
audiences liked them; their manager

and SO did they.
One day when they were away up
in North Dakota, something was said
about where they were going from
Dakota, and he told them the trip
led from there into Canada. To his
surprise the girls spirits immediate
ly collapsed, and they would not be
comforted. They even declared they
would not have gone ON the trip at
all IL they had known it led into
Canada. He assured them of the
