 JOHN THE EVANGELIST

Today is the festival of St. John Evangelist. the youngest of the ap- ostles in age. but numbered among the greatest of them. It is said that in the hours of the Passion. when others fled or denied their master, St. John kept his palce by the side of Jesus, and at the last stood by the cross with Mary. Later John lived first at Jeru- salem and then ta Ephesus. According to tradition, he was thrown into q caldron of boiling oil, but escaped un- hurt. Atferward he was banished to the isel of Patmos where he received the visions set birth in tho Apocalypse He died at a great age at Ephesus in the year 100.

NAPOLEON LAJOIE ~z. <
 QUITS BASEBALL

!. Cleveland. Ohio, Dec. 27.-Napol- con Lojoie, for 20 years conceded to be one of the worlds greatest in- fielders, today announced his retire. ment from professional baseball. Fo- many years he was considered the leading second baseman.
 Last season Lajoie managed the Indianapolis team of the American association.
 Cnly cnce in his 23 years career on the diamond did Lajoie belong to a pennant wirlning team. That was in 1917, when be managed the To- ronto team of the International league.
 Lajoie was manager of the Cleve land American league team from 1905 to the latter part Of the 1909 season. In 1908 his team lost the pennant to Detroit by half a game He started his major league career with the Philadelphia Nationals as first taseman and outfieid and jump ed to the Philadelphia Athletics when the American league was organized. A restraining order preventing him from playing in Pennsylvania caused I-ajoie to be sold to Cleve- land.
 Four times Laioie led the American !, league batters and four time, he managed to make more than 200 hits during his 20 years in the major 1 leagues.
 Lajoie collected 5.243 base hits for grand average of .33S and scored more than 1.500 runs.- He accepted more than 14000 fielding chances, making only 302 errors.

',HAMONI ONCE THE.
 TRONGHOLD OF HE JHAMPAGNE COUNTS
General Headquarters

General Headquarters American Expeditionary Forces, Chaumont, l France, Dec. 27.-(Correspondence Of ! the Associated Press )--In such spare time as their duties permit many of the officers of the American head asting historical relics of this little city. While it is not so old as some of it's neighboring towns never theless Chaumont is q fertile field of investigation.
 It was once the seat and stronghold of the Counts of Champagne. On the edge of tree-clad precipice that commands a wide view of field and
 forest still stands the large Tour Hautefeuille, a relic of the castle of he Counts of Champagne. A mas- sive square structure of masonry,
 lichened and grey with age, it now forms one angle of the more modern palais de Justice and is in such good condition that it dates from the 11th century. Below it are the cells of The court house, and around it's base 's a quaint walled garden shaded by ancient trees. This was once the castle garden, and from deep ra- rine a stairway tunneled from the rock leads to the old tower.
 Many of Chaumont's houses date fo the twelfth century, but next to 'nwer Hautefeille ill interest is the Church of St Jean Crowded in be- '"een buildings on all sides this
 eauti 'ul old edifica sbhows to less 'dvantage then many of the newer churches and cathedrals but few of them held more of interest It dates e''oln the 18th. 18th and 18th centur- 'es and retains exquisite monuments of each period.
 south portal is we'll known to archi- tects and it's flamboyant Gothic is ln strong contrast to the severe Rem. aissance style of the west portal The interior ornamentation is rich and varied. the triforium ill the tran. cert beiag emballished With an ex- quisite cornice supported on corhels The church also holds 9 painting of St. Alexis ascribed to Andrea del Sar5o. A chapel in the north aisle holds a curious Holy Sepulchre dat ing from 1640.
 The pulpit and stalls are the work O Bouchardon, father of the famous sculptor who was a native of Chau- mont, having been born here ill 1898
 But Chanmont's place in later his tory probably rests on the fact that here was signed the famous treaty of 1814 by which the allied ssovereigns nledead themselves to reduce France to the limits of 17S9 Il an ancient b"i'd;ng in the Rue Bouchardon, once convent. but now the resi- dence of wealthy citizen. and for the present loaned as the official American "guesthouse" aAd officers rlub, there is stained glass win dow ccmmemorating the signing Of the treaty. It is claimed that the his toric event took place in this build ing.
 Chaumont was the home and birth place of Phillips I!abo, the pioneer of gas lighting n France, and near the railway station is a 'bronzc' statue of him bv Pechinet. Lebon was born ill 1767.

STORAGE WAREHOUSES;
FOR ZINC ORES

Ore storage warehouses are the or
der of the day in the Oklahoma-Kan-
sas lead and zinc mining districts.
One warehouse in Picher, Okla, is
nearing completion and contracts al
ready have been let for two more such
storage warehouses to be located in
the great lead and zinc field. -.
The object of the warehouse is to
keep the price of the finished product
of the mines stable and not permit
the ore market to become stagnant or
to permit the closing Of the mines and
causing a period Of depression to the
mining communities. This plan, when
carried out, will be of the greatest
value not only to the mine operator,
but to the miner as well.

REMARKABLE PHOTO SPECTACLE
The 5Iuebird Soon to Be Shown in Davis Theatre.

A photoplay of extraordinary inter est will be show to the patrons Of the Davis theatre on Thursday, when The BIuebird, an Aircraft picture, will be presented.
 When Maurice Maeterlinck presented his Bluebird to the world, less than a decade ago, it was acclaimed as one of the greatest gems of literature and conceded to be the masterpiece of the great Belgian author, dramatist and poet Up to the present time no film producer had dared to pay the enoT- nous amount demanded for the motion picture rights and expend, in addition, the tremendous sum necessary to prop erly produce the play in films.
 The cast is too lengthy to enumerate, all the ordinary matters of life being personified, and beautiful girls in symbolical costumes interpret various parts. Eleanor Masters, the model for James Montgomery Flagg, is Milk; Mary Kennedy, Water; Lillian Cook, Fairy Bery1und Gertrude Mccoy, Light; Rosa Rolanda, the well known dancer, leads ballet in symbolical interpretations, and Lyn Danielson is Night.
 Tula Belle and Robin Macdougall, two clever kiddies we'll known to pie ture patrons, are the children who search for the Bluebird. Maurice Tourneur has won an enviable ,repu- tation as an artistic producer, and this spectacle has proven a subject in which his genius has beer put to a severe test
