VIOLA Smith, winner Of dozen pop
ularity contests conducted by leading
magazines and newspapers, was born
in Buffalo, n. Y, in 1898 From ear
lest childhood this captivating little
actress felt sure that she could win
success on the stage. After being
graduated from high school, she took
three years course in dramatic art.
The family had moved to New York,
and right across the street the Bio
graph company began to build its
new studios. When production of pic
lures began, little Miss Smith used to
hang over the garden gate and watch
enviously the actresses entering the
great building for their days work.
Her chance came one morning when
D. W. Griffith looked out of window
and saw her. She was just the type
the great director needed for a pic
ture With characteristic impulse he
rushed downstairs and across the
street, looked the astonished girl in
the eye, said You'll do" and told her.
to consider herself engaged. From
that day until a fortnight ago, when
she joined the Universal forces, VIOLA
Smith has been a member of the Bio
graph company, advancing swiftly
from ingenue roles to such important
parts as Lorna Doone." The secret
of her popularity lies not alone in her
beauty and striking personality, but
also in her genuine ability to por-
tray emotion.

DO Rest al GaIeShurp.

The Aledo high school athletes we're
not nearly so fortunate in the western
Illinois high school meet held at Mon
mouth Saturday as were they in the
military tract meet held at Galesburg
the day before. At Galesburg the local
school landed in first place. while at
Monmouth it could succeed in placing
no higher than sixth. The fact that
the AledO high team finished second
in the relay race speaks well for the
ability of that team They we're beat
en- only four-tifths of a second by the
kewanee relay team.

Fight On Street Car C0sdy-Rud
kniphels and j. James, charged with
disturbing the peace. were hailed before
Magistrate Claussen's court. Kniphels
was fined IS and costs and James re-
ceiVed the nominal fine of 81 and costs
They were charged with creating a
disturbance on Bridge line car and
breaking several window panes in a
general fracas. Both men paid the
fines.
Husband Asks for Kitchen Ware-P.
A. Teeple. in a suit for divorce asks
the court to give him the kitchen fur
niture and the household goods. He
charges his wife, Charlotte with a stat
utOry ofense. He also prays for the
custody OF a minor child, Charley, IS
years old. He states in his petition
that they were married Nov. 5, 1898,
and lived together until February of
this year. j. A. Hanley is his attor-
ney.
Old Glory Flies Minus Stars-The
stars in Old Glory were dimmed as the
national emblem futtered in the
spring breeze from the county court
house. The red and white stripes
shone brightly as the silk played back
and forth in the bright sunlight but
every star was out. And Old Glory,
seeming to know that all was not as il
should be, frequently deied the strong
air currents and dropped dismally
down. When the new flagstaff was
erected several weeks ago it was
pointed out slanting to the southwark
instead OF in an erect position. The
wind has wrapped half the big flag
tightly around the flagstaff, completely
hiding the white stars on the field of
blue.
n. Z. Stanton Winner in District
COurt-The case of Charles j. Sim VS..
n. +. Stanton, former restaurant man.
ended in the district court in sweep
ing victory for Mr.. Stanton. The de-
Tense were so confident of their ground
that they did not deem it necessary
to put a single witness on the stand.
The testimony of the plaintiffs wit
nesses was so contradictory and flimsy
that Judge Theophilus threw the case
out of court and issued writ Of fore
closure in favor Of Mr.. Stanton and
against Mr.. Sim. The latter had sued
to cancel a note and Chattel mortgage
in the sum of 81 500. Fred Vollmer
and Andrew Chezem were attorneys
for Mr.. Sim and ]. A. Hanley repre-
scented Mr.. Stanton.

 The several cannery companies, we are reliably informed, have real and personal property in the Territory of Alaska to the value of approximately 37,0O0,OOO dollars. We would re- spectfully petition congress to grant the Territorial Legislature the power to impose a reasonable tax on this property and also the output of tht canneries, the money derived from these taxes to be used, two-thirds fo, the building of roads, better educa tional facilities and other Territorial! expenses, and the other one-third C the Bureau of Fisheries.
 We would recommend that the Gov ernment acquire by purchase or other wise all the private hatcheries in Alaska and that they be operated un- der Government supervision. We would further recommend that the practice of canneries paying part or all of their taxes by releasing salmon fry, be discontinued. and these taxes paid in cash; also that the Territory have an inspector in each section where canneries are located.
