ELECTRIC THEATRE
MAKES IMPROVEMENTS

Improvements that add to the attrac-
tiveness of the popular place have been
added during the past week at the
Electric theatre. Instead of the side
lights that adorned the theatre over
head electric lamps with inverted
shades have been placed in the build
ing. These lights illuminate the thea
tire with indirect rays. They are kept
burning throughout the show. and one
entering the building does not have to
grope to find seat.
The Electric popularity is on the in
crease, and Sunday evening it became
necessary to add to the seating equip
ment. One of the most attractive fea-
lures of the Electric is the organ music
furnished by Mrs. Kolstad.

tDe SesblOH at Tue TekuidE "cetiHB VI
the loca, club Wednesday evening of
last week.
The following is from United
| States Department of Agriculture bull
etin and continuation Of recent
article on wild bird propagation in the
| Northwest:
For all birds some sort of bathing
and drinking pools should be furnished.
these may be either on the ground or
raised and may be Of pottery, stone,
metal or cement. Both the edges and
bottom should be somewhat rough.
The water receptacle shonld be shallow
and should slope up gradually toward
the edge.
The vital factor in tracing birds is
the food supply. This may be fur
nished either by providing artificial
food such as crumbs. suet, chopped nuts
and the like, or by planting trees.
shrubs and herbs which will produce
fruits or seeds that the birds them
selves may gather. Winter feeding is
the most familiar phase of bird feed
ing, but there is no reason why birds
should not be attracted throughout the
year by supply of food.
For artificial feeding the biologists
of the U. s. Department of Agricul-
ture suggest the use of several devises.
A food shelf may be placed against the
side of the house near window, or a
food tray may be fixed TO the top OF
post Excellent food receptacle may be
had by cutting hole in cocoanut and
stuffing the shell full of chopped suet
and nuts or some other food mixture.
The shell can he hung from limb.
Holes bored in pieces of thick lumber
NAV be use instead of cavity in CO.
coanut. Feeding boppers like those
used for poultry may he employed for
birds on food shelves or on the ground.
A wooden house open on one side away
from the wind also may be used as
feeding place.
IL it is desired to feed the birds
naturally, there are number of plants
that may be grown which will be orna-
mental and, at the same time, will fur
nish good provender for athe feathered
guests. For seed eating birds in the
Northwest the list suggested by the
Department of Agriculture includes
princes feather, love-ies- bleeding, as
ters, calandrinias, blessed thistle. CEN
taureas, California poppies, sunflowers.
tarweed, forget-me-nots PolyRonum
orientale, P. sachalinese. portulaca. 81
lene and sugar cane. Other seed bear
ing small plants that may be grown
are the various millets, canary grass,
and the various species of pennisetum.
Among the trees bearing seeds rel.
ished by birds are the alders and birch
es. The red-polls, siskins and gold
finches are particularly fond of these
tree seeds duriug the winter. Ashes
and box elders furnish seed relished by
evening grosbeaks. while larches and
pines and other conifers are attractive
to crossbills as well as to some of the
species just mentioned.
The fruit eating birds may be at
tracted in great numbers by planting
of fruit bearing shrubs and trees. The
best of the long persisting fruits in the
Northwest are juniper, bayberry, thorn
apples and related fruits, holly and
snow berry. A large number of other
fruit bearing plants are listed in the
bulletin already mentioned, and the
| payiod of fyujtlnp of each is shown on

nUGHEs REpUO|ATeO
BY ACTING CHAIRMAN
OF the Progressive National
Committee Who Calls Deal
An "AffrOnt."

The New York Tribune (Rep.) Of
July reports the following:
AN attempt by a small group OF
men to deliver the Progressive party
organization to the Republican can.
didate in manner which violates
one of the fundamental principles
of the Progressive party, is an af.
front to the sincerity of all Progress
sives."
4 This is the way Matthew Hale, OF
Boston, acting chairman of the Pro-
sressive National Committee. ends
his report to the delegates of the
recent Progressive National Conven-
ton on the action of the Progressive
National Committee in endorsing
Mr.. Hughes.
In his report Mr.. Hale quotes
freely from kilograms and letters
sent prior to the meeting of the Pro-
gressive National Committee, and
then gives his conclusions, which
are, in part, as follows:
You, as delegates to the Progress
sive National Convention. made II
clear that you were not in favor of
surrendering to the Republican par
ty.
when you gave the Progressive
National Committee the right to fill
vacancies you did not intend to give
it the right to deliver the Progress
sive party organization to the Re-
publican candidate.
THE endorsement of the Repub-
lican candidate by the Progressive
National Committee was made with
out authority either from you, who
represent the Progressive party ma
tionally, or from the State organiza-
lions, and without any attempt to
get that authority.
The endorsement of the Repub-
lean candidate for President by the
Progressive National Committee vio-
lated one of the fundamental prin-
ciples OF the Progressive party. The
Progressive platform of 1912 pro-
vided that the selection of party
candidates should he made after
consultation with the rank and file
OF the party and in accordance with
their wishes, and should not be
made by small group of leaders in
accordance with their own individ-
ual wishes."

THE DEADLY TABLET Is
CAUSE OF BABY'S DEATH

Chicago, July 21.-While playing
about her parents home at 1923
North Mozart street, three-year-old
Elsie Gerhardt found some white
tablets which her father. Frederick
Gerhardt. had brought home from
the hospital on Sunday. Thinking
they were candy, she gave one to
her baby brother, Frederick, Jr., fl
teen months old.
A few minutes later the baby was
seized with nausea and was rushed
to the Norwegian Deaconess hospit-
al, where he died.
The tablets were bichloride of
mercury. which had been given the
father TO use as an antiseptic wash
for a scalp wound which had kept
him confined in the hospital for
nearly a month.

HARASSING THE L.. & N.
--UNRIGHTEOUS WARFARE

Milton II. Smith is right when he
protests against the investigation OF
the l.. & Ms political activities by
the Interstate Commerce Commits
sion, declaring that such is entirely
the result of the personal animus OF
Senator Luke Lea of Tennessee.
1t is not pleasant for an elephant
to be annoyed by an ant and We i'm
agine that this is very much the way
the head of the Louisville and Nash
willie feels about Senator Lea's at
tacks.
Nevertheless, a railroad should
not be continually harassed by COM
missions, federal or State, unless
there be a just cause. The l.. 4
n, is, we believe. one of the best
conducted roads of the country. Its
policy is ltra-conservative. 1t is
absolutely free from high financing,
and is reasonably just in its treat
ment of those with whom il deals.
Yet the l.. & N. is called on the
carpet" more frequently than almost
any other road before the Inter-
state Commerce Commission.
As to Senator Lea's charges that
it takes a pernicious part in Tennes
see and Alabama politics, we, of
course, have no accurate knowledge.
However, if all of Senator Lea's
statements are on parity with his
charge that the l.. & ". spent "a
large amount of money to defeat
Stanley for Governor, they discredit
themselves. Before making such
declaration the Senator should have
noticed that the Fifth district, which
goes Republican land
where the l.. e. n. vote is masse0
gave Stanley 400 majority over
