carries much conviction.
VIII Try IL Again.
Among the public conjecture Is rife

and Sim Fein plots to resentment at
Miss Taylor having left London dur
ing the air raids or at letter. which
Manager c. b. Cochrane. OF the Gar

which he compared English actresses

WOMAN RULES AS
 MAYOR IN OLD WILD WEST TOWN

June "A woman Mayor, Mrs. Grace Miller, now rules in Jackson, the population center Of the Jacksons Hole country which long was famous in fact and fiction as the resort of outlaws, cattle rtEstIers, horse thieves and other bad men of the west than once was. For what is said to be the first time in history there is not a man in the city hall of an American municipality; for a city ad- ministration composed entirely of wo-' men has been sworn into office as result of the election in May. There is not a man in Jackson's city hail.
 Jackson is a diminutive city---with a population of not quite 300. Per- haps no other section of the United
