Prison Stock Company"
Has Real Actors In II

When the boys living on the inside
OF the Oregon state penitentiary de-
eide to give their annual show, the
names on the program are suggestive
OF a stock company. That is, when a
show rs given, the players and actors
are not hard to find as most of the tai
ent has not changed residence for sew
eral years.
For instance, in the "Midnight Ca.
barct' to be given at the penitentiary
Thursday and Friday evening Of next
week, on the program appears the
name OF Happy Gordon. He Is d first
class SHOW man and could make q good
living on the outside. II was not so
long ago that Happy made get
away, and there was rejoicing among
the show boys when he was returned.
He is president now OF the Players
club.
Then another old timer whose name
adds much to penitentiary
Is Fred Taylor. He is another artist
that could make good on vaudeville on
the outside as well ais the inside He
Is director OF the Players club and
his work adds much to the regular an
nual show.
Jan DuMonte is another favbrite
with Salem audiences. That is, he has
made several appearances for the past
several years and his work is also APP
precited as worthy Of outside vaude-
Vile.
There are several new names on the
program for "The Midnight Cabaret !"
but the mere fact that several Of the
old timers are on the job under the di-
rection of Happy Gordon and Fred

A very dainty program has been re-
ceived at this office, announcing the
annual dramatic production of the
'sPlayers Club" of the Oregon State
Penitentiary. This is to be given on
the evening of February Goth, and it
promises to be erich, rare and racy."
In former years the group, which mum
bers in its personnel some profession
al entertainers, has confined itself to
minstrel stunts; but this season they
are undertaking something little
more ambitious in a musical comedy
entitled "The Midnight Cabaret" "a
piece that permits of lot of good ac-
ting, comic situations and song hits.
A bit of 'slocal color'' will also be
introduced. The proceeds are to be
used for the benefit of the baseball
team and other sports of the institu-
tion. Doubtless there are many friends
of the men behind the walls who will
be pleased to help along this produc-
ton. The officers of the Players Club
are: Henry Gordon, president; j. Mon
trose, vice president; Fred Taylor, di-
rector.

 "NcVcr before in the history of the country has the express traffic reached such proportions as it has assumed today. At the same time, there has been mparatively little increase i'll the amount of car space available for this business. We have been asked to carry heavier shipments and commo- dities of every conceivable kind
 "BefOrc the war, it was possible for car messengers to spread their freight out on the floors of the express cars without much congestion. Today we are running dozens of through cars be- tween the big cities and every one Ot those cars is packed to capacity. There has been a similar congestion in the local runs.
 '"1'his has made it necessary for ex- press shipments to be stacked. As a result, individual shipments have had to be strongly enough packed to be able to stand for themselves, and oW- ing to the Jack of uniformity in this regard the new regulations were for mulated and finally approved by the railroad administration.

NEW PACKING RULES
 EFFECTIVE DEC. 10
Local Freight Agent Explains
 Requirements

Steps were taken today by Agent Beach, in charge of the city express office, to prepare for the new express packing requirements, which go into effect on December 10. He has been advising express shippers to study tho new rules, which have been approved by the United States railroad adminis- traitor, so that they may be able to adjust their packing. methods to the forthcoming standards.
 Under the new regulations which are embodied in what is known tech nlcally as Supplement No. to Express Classification No. 26, all Shipm entS sent by express weighing over 25 pounds, must be packed in a wooden container, or carton of fibre board, pulp board or corrugated straw board material or specified test Strength". This means, according to Agent Beach, that after December 10, packages over the 25-pound limit will not be accepted for forwarding by the American Railway Express Comany handling the express business of the entre country as agent of the railroad administration. if only paper wrapped. Nor will ordinary paper boxes. wrapped or unWrapped, be accepted aS suitable protection for these heavier shipments. The regulations how ever, do not affect shipments under 25 pounds.
 Regular shippers, Agent Beach stated today, will not be myStitied by the new regulations, as they follow very closely the packing requirements long in vogue in the freight service. The express regulations, however, al- low d little more latitude in the size of the carton used. The enforcement of the new rules was postponed until December 10, so that shippers would 1 have plenty of time to prepare them selves for this change in express pack ing standards.
 Agent Beach expressed the opinion that these new rules will not work any hardships on shippers, but should operate distinctly il their interests Us the rules will provide additional safe guards for merchandise in transit Moreover, they will establish a uni 1ormIty of express packing rules which heretofore has been lacking The new order does not affect the movement of food products by express which are ordinarily shipped in crates or barrels.

Try 70 Think o. Cny Steadily Growing

FOrward-l0oking men years ago recognized that it was inevitable that the residential community development of New Britain would be westward, fol- lowing the general tendency of all pro- gressive cities.
 These fearless fellows backed their judgment to the limit, with the re- suit that New Britain's proudest pos- session is the substantial, attractive and desirable streets and avenues tribu. tary to West Main St.-the FIFTH AVENUE of the city.
 Expansion of this residential dis trict is now crying necessity.
 The magnificent estate of MT. Arthur w. Williams is on the edge of the city's present western building line and rather than retard for years the natural growth of his native city, and PROBABLY FORCE EXPENSIVE AND UNSATISFACTORY DEVEL- OPMENT ELSEWHERE, he is divid- ing his wonderful estate of forest, field and upland into residential homestead plots of abundant size.
 There is never doubt about the wisdom of buying good property such as is here offered you except the doubt as to the exact amount of money to be made.

Almost An Explosion.

Bootleggers almost caused an eX-
plosion of a Burlington locomotive, on
Tuesday last, July /, when labels from
bottles Of whiskey which they had
stuffed into the locomotive tender
clogged the feed pipe to the boiler;
The trick was the most unique pulled
off by Nebraska bootleggers since this
state went dry.
The train left Kansas City the night
previous for Omaha. At Forest City,
the engineer saw that his boiler was
almost empty, although the tender
tank was full. The fireman Owed into
the tank, where he found fifty-six
bottles of whiskey. The labels had
been soaked off and clogged the pipe.
The bottles are supposed to have been
hid in the tender at Kansas City and
would have been removed in Omaha
Had the discovery of the low water
been delayed fifteen minutes, the loco
motive boiler would have exploded, the
engineer said.
