ADJUSTMENTS
100000 WOMEN
DEFIANCE ON
MARRYING HIM

When coo, 900 women are willing to pay
a dollar a head on the chance that they
may pick a particular man for hus-
hand. 1t is surely going some. The"
wanted to do that for Jack Wright AMI
they did.
Jack Wright. in this particular casc.
is Wallace Reid and it is the name OF
the character in which he will be seen
at the Colonial theatre for the last times
this afternoon and tonight. The play IS
THE Lottery Man." q Paramount
Aircraft picture and it is about the
breeziest thing that Reid has done. The
big picture will be shown once this aft
ernoon and twice this evening.
Wright thought himself decidedly IN
wrong for a while after deciding that he
would auction himself off so that he
could obtain enough money to support
his mother. After he had started the
lottery. he fell in love with peach Of
a girl and to cap the climax a homely
old maid held the winning coupon. How
tho young man extricated himself from
the situation and wins happiness and a
fortune along with it furnishes a side
splitting entertainment. The picture
was adapted from Rida Johnson
Youngs play of the same name and it Is
a ripper from start to finish.
There is another big picture on the
Colonial program to be seen today. It
is 1.-The Spitfire Of Seville" in which
Mile Hedda Nova. the famous Russian
appears. In this five-reel thriller. Mile.
Nova appears in boys clothing and
Kent Stanton who sees her thinks she
is boy. He feels that it Is a shame
that such good looks should be waste
on one of the male sex. AS Carmelita
made her way home from tending the
sheep. a whale of storm comes up and
she seeks shelter in a lonely shack.
Staunton also rushes there to escape the
fury of the gale. When Carmelita' 8
ever hears about this and when she
navely says Il spent the night with
an American" there is trouble. The
play proves one of the most absorbing
yet offered at the Colonial and Mile. No.
va for all she is a stranger to Augusta
is proving favorite.
The 10th episode Of Smashing Bar
riers," the great serial in which Will
liam Duncan appears, kept the audi
ences fairly on edge yesterda" at the
Colonial and it is sure to do the same
thing today. The rest Of the program
provides some rare entertainment for

MRS. GEORGE HUBBARD.
DIES AT VALLEY HOME
Passes Away after Long Illness
Came to Kennewick Five
H.. Years Ago

Mrs. George Hubbard ST., died
at the family home in the Val
ley Saturday following a long
illness. Funeral services were
conducted in the Mueller parlors
Tuesday afternoon at 2::30 by
Rev. Leonard Smith, of the
Episcopal church.
Mrs. Hubbard was born Mar.
4, 1854 in Jefferson, Wisconsin.
When she was a small child her
parents moved to Minnesota.
where she grew to womanhood
and was married to Mr.. Hub
bard in Rochester, April 18th,
1873. They made their home at
Chatfield, Mimi, until five years
ago when they came to the Ken
newick Valley.
Mrs. Hubbard was the mother

in certain quarters.
If the farmers Of the nation would
unite in one organization and then de-
eide to limit production to the needs
of each, exchanging with each other,
but selling nothing to outsiders! We
farmers have as much cause and right
to do these things as miners and rail-
road men has to stop production or
transportation, but should they ever
resort to such course, may God in
righteous anger smite their crops! No
wonder that the red-mouthed agi-
tators want to unite solid farmer or
ganization with labor unions. With
such fulcrum they would have a
leverage that would upset the world.
My advice to farmers is to stick to
their own knitting and not go to fol-
lowing after false gods.

Letters from the People

Editor Courier-Reporter:
was much interested in a recent
letter of Mr.. Keith. His way Of meas
uring the purchasing power by the
earning capacity per hour is the cor
rect one. No doubt but there are
many of the older persons in this VI
cinity who could relate similar exper-
fences. Many Of these are now (hated)
capitalists because they own the roof
over their heads and do not have to
ride the brakerods. But to gain such
a competence they have sweat blood,
living in land of plenty, yet their
products would hardly pay to haul a
few miles to market. During 1879 the
writer, with two other married men,
worked for big rancher in Missouri
for twenty dollars per month each.
We boarded ourselves and families in
addition to paying for labor and ma
terial to build the houses we lived in.
Not sky-scrapers, but homes. Those
were long, strenuous days. No half
time or over time allowed. But it new
er occurred to us that we were wage
slaves, for our employers had three
sources of income in one combination
corn, hogs and cattle. Corn was SO
cheap and abundant that it was put
into the feed bankers for from eight
to twelve cents per bushel; hogs were
around two cents and corn-fed cattle
came in direct competition with range
cattle which were then roaming the
plains from border to border.

cert Players for December
13-M. e. Church

Always on the alert to do
something really worth while,
Kennewick's Boy Scouts are
bringing to Kennewick what
they believe is the highest class
musical attraction the city will
have ever had. The attraction
is the National Grand Concert
Players who will give a concert
in the Methodist church Satur-
day evening, December 13. .1.
The Players are being booked
in the larger cities Of the North
west by Mr.. Lowe, formerly rep
resentative of the Redpath Ly-
ceum Bureau. The company is
composed of a group Of artists,
five in number. The program
consists Of instrumental and vo-
cal solos, duets, readings and
assembled selections.
Lottie Louise Loughreader
played the leading roll in "The
Little Princess" when only IL
years of age, playing the same
roll which Mary Pickford played
some time ago. Not only is she
reader, but she possesses a
beautiful soprano voice and
proves herself an artist of song

sesses beautiful tone and rell-
able technic and puts a personal
ity into her playing that de-
lights her audiences. Drawde
Trash, the violinist, comes from
an old family of musicians, be-
ing related to Persian royalty.
He uses Johan Gogliano violin,
dating from 1876 and is said to
be the most perfect specimen of
these rare violins in the United
States today. The pianist is w.
Wright Donzenetti, of Boston,
who has reputation as a re-
markable pianist. One of the
features of the entertainment is
the stunning costumes worn by
Nine. Fernlough, soloist. One
creation is a silver brocaded sa.
tin with an overdress of silve,
net with opal jewel trimming
and is valued at $1,000.
Judging from the press no.
tees the Players have been win
ming the plaudits of their au
diences both east and west.
The Seattle Times says: "Mme
Fernlough was captivating. A
soloist one will travel far tt
