San Francisco, Jan. 25.--William
Shakespeare, the we'll known Bard of
Avon, rolled over in his grave today
when he heard that the San Fran
cisco board of supervisors had drawn
odious comparisons about his place
in the sun, and had even feared that
for the sake Of neutrality San Fran
cisco ought not to honor his tercen-
tennary April 25.
In an interview received by spirit
reporter, Shakespeare declared;
''In faith. my lord, it gives me
pause that John o. Walsh should de-
clare Byron much greater poet than
l. Why, my lord, though in my own
time was regarded as no better than
a penny-a-liner, prithee have I not
since been known the world over as
the greatest writer Of all tlmeg"
The bard's shade was bit peeved.
too. because Supervisor Wolf had de-
clared Charles Dickens did more for
the plain people than Shakespeare
ever did. But, anyhow, after sweep
ing aside the objection that citizens
might object to the celebration on the
grounds Of neutrality, the board
agreed to have the celebration, Sup
ervisor Hooks, OF Teutonic extraction,
swung the tide In favor Of the re-
nowned Englishman when he de-
|claredl he had Shakespeare works

MINES At GAuCE TO Be
PLACED IN OPERATION
The Oiole Already Cleared Of Litigation, and an Excel
lent Showing Made Under Its Receivership in Paying
OF Indebtedness, and Funds for the Almeda Said to
Have Been Received From the East

II Is evident that the Galice mining

capital letters, for the litigation that
has involved both the great proper
ties OF that camp. the Oriole and the
Aimeda, Is about to be cleared and
both mines will resume their right
full places among the big producers
OF the west.
The records OF the court show that
the 0riole has just been released
from litigation. and II is stated that
II will soon resume operation. One
OF the retiring officers OF the company
states that previous TO 1907 the
orIole was a paying property, ship

hands OF a promoter. was incorpor-
ated. and stock to the amount OF
100000 was sold throughout the
east. the official states at all kinds OF
prices and up on all kinds OF repre-
sentatlon. About $4,000 of this
stock sale found Its way into the de-
velopment of the property, and for
tunately was judiciously and intelli-
gently expended. The balance. 1t is
said. went to pay the premium upon
the promotion, and the property was
deliberately allowed to become in
volved in debt.
In March. 1915. the local officials,
In hope OF saving the creditors and
stockholders, placed the property in
the hands OF Sam II. Baker. of the
Josephine County bank, as receiver.
The receivership was a success and
sets a record for southern Oregon In
such cases, rs Mr.. Baker In seven
months cleaned up the affairs of the
company and the creditors have been
paid one hundred cents on the dol
lar; but in order to do this, ]. C. Mat
tison. who originally was sole own
er OF the property, voluntarily gave
up majority of his remaining in
terest to repay the eastern stock
holders and to secure money to pay
off the creditors.
The 0rlole is probably as system
atically developed as any in the state;
It has about mile OF underground
work, ten-stamp mill. electric

White House today. This came in

The new note, which In advance
had been regarded as probably the

Bernstorff to Secretary Lansing Sat
urday and presented yesterday to
President Wilson. Today it was laid
before the cabinet. In the hope OF
clearing up the case as far as pos
sible before he starts his prepared

confer at length with Lansing to-
morrow. He postponed his Wednes-
day departure for New York to mid

this session.
Meanwhile. it is possible that Lans-

Bernstorff.
Forecasts OF. the note to which the
state department is believed to have
objected said that Germany had re-
Trained from mentioning the matter
of future warnings to liners before
making submarine attacks, and had
modified her refusal to c0ncede
wrong-doing on the part of the diver

A German embassy official declared
the note is Germany's last word and
indicated that he had reason to
think that the president and the state
department would regard it as meet
ing the situation. He declared he did
not see how Germany could go far
