charge. The secretary offered us eN-
erything he had at his disposal, took
our soiled laundry to a nearby town,
paid for the washing and took the
risk of making collections. Some
of us had not been paid for SIN
months and many of the men had
no money. Each received loan OF
ten francs, about S1.75, from the
secretary.
ION Mothers Day this secretary
sent to a nearby town and got one
white carnation for each man in our
detail and every man went to
church that day wearing the white
blossom, and afterward each man
wrote home at the secretary's re-
quest. On the Fourth of July we
staged great celebration. attended

MAJESTIC BILL
| DELIGHTS MANY
Dancing, Comedy and Music
Round Out Excellent Bill at
Local Vaudeville House

Theatergoers who saw the bill for
the first half OF the week at the Ma
iestiC theutcr last night were delight
ed with one o, the best shows of the
summer season. Comedy, songs,
dancing ard an adventure in the oc-
cult sciences made up the bill, with
JoveddAh Te Rajah as the headline
attraction Last nights audience
was one of the largest of the season.
House If Hatc-rhe usual thrill

Pearl White. Just as the most eX

Belle and Wood-Both displayed
exceptional ability in dancing. The
act opened with song. A number
of darces followed. with a patriotic
climax which brought hearty hand
from the AUDIENCE. The aesthetic"
comedy GarCes were exceptionally
we'll liked.
Mason and Colc-Two things
marred the excellent work of Gene
Mason and Fay Cole. They opened
with wornout number and accept
ed encores too readily. Even with
these handicaps the act scored big
hit with the audience.
Quick Sales -- Most vaudeville
sketches are tiresome, but the un-
usual dramatic ability of Ezra Mat
thews, Dean Raymond and Olive
Blakeney lifted this comedy high
above the ordinary level. 1t was the
usual story of a young man want
ing to marry girl. He had to get
money so he caught the lass ia
ther in sale of land. thus securing
the needed fortune.
Lewis and Leopold-Billed as
Two Merry Men From Songland,
the two gay. men did their best to do
Justice to the title. The audience
was kept in a continual uproar.
Southern melodies and a potpourri
of parodies on familiar songs
brought the duo back to the stage
for Il second encore number.
Joveddah De Rajah-Those who
remember Clayton the Great and his
exhibition of the occult sciences will
fird this act along the same lines.

B. LE-SCARRED EAGLE
WEARS TAG MARKED 1865

Butte, Mont.-Harold Leslie, a IA
year-old boy, shot an old, battle
SCARED American eagle in the crags
just east of Butte. The eagle bore a
tag on it's foot which said: John
Rogers, St. Louis, 1855"
The tag was worn by weather and
beaten by innumerable bumps
against the rocky lodges.
1t is not known whether the tag
referred to the city of st. Louis or
TO the St. Louis Fur Company, but
old timers are inclined to believe
that Rogers was a gold seeker from
the Missouri city.
Eagles sometimes live 100 years.
