MAY PROVES To
Be BEST MONTH
FOR BUILDING
Permits Aggregating $l37,090
Issued by Inspector; Many
Fine Residences Under Con-
struction; Expect Big Year.

Building permits issued in Caldwell
during May by Building Inspector o.
H. Sovereign totalled $3.50 accord
ing to unofficial figures compiled Sat-
urday afternoon. During the four
months proceeding permits aggregat-
ing $254.s0O have been issued, bring
ing the total for the year thus far to
1891, $50.
This months high total is due
largely to the permit which was is
sued Saturday to the Interstate Ware
house company for 5000 for a COM
bined elevator and warehouse which is
already under construction on West
Main street. Permits were issued for
II residences during the month for a
total valuation of $42, $50, or an aver
age of almost $4,000 each. Notable
among these was permit issued Dr..
w. F: Gigray for a 10000 home which
is now under construction.
Mays building permits exceeded
those of any proceeding month of this
spring by considerable margin,
March being the ony close competitor
when building totalling $l24,7O5 was
begun. April witnessed quite decline
when permits aggregating $87 ,2ls
were issued by Mr.. Sovereign.
Expect Big Total 70 Year
Significant of the present building
era is the large c-oportionate amount
which is being invested in residence
property. During the five months of
the year So permits have been issued
for residences whose estimated cost
aggregates $ls2.7ls or almost 5000
as an average investment. 1t is re-
garded as significant that in spite OF
the increasing costs Of building and
the large number of new residences il,
Caldwell. there still exists a shortage
of houses and there is no evidens
abatement of the desire to build new
houses as rapidly as possible.
This years figures so far indicate
that there is little inclination to post
pone building operations in the hope
that lumber, labor and other building
essentials will decrease in cost to con-
tractors and permit cheaper building
Predictions are being freely made
that this years building will far exceed
that OF last year, . prophecy which il
apparently we'll founded on the basi.
of building undertaken thus far
Many other substantial ventures arr
being seriously contemplated and i
is expected that the present building
stride will continue well into the fall

GOOD BUSINESS
DOES NOT LACK
READY MONEY
Bunk Report indicates Suffi-
cient Available Funds for
Farming and Livestock In
dusties; Crops Good Shape

That there is not likely to be any
shortage Of money for farmers and
livestock men in the Caldell district
for I'll essential purposes is the pre-
diction Of the Caldwell Commercial
bank in its monthly statement to de-
positofs1 Demand for loans is very
active and some curtailment has been
necessary in loans on realty ventures.
While the mean temperature for the
past 80 days has been somewhat below
normal. favorable crop reports have
been received from the entire sur
rounding country, according to the
report, which continues:
Favorable reports from surround
ing sections are received on all kinds
of crops. The mean temperature for
the past thirty days has been a little
below average, but the range of tenn
perature has been quite even and as
q result prospects for good hay and
grain crop are very favorable. The
prospect for heavy fruit crop is also
good. 1t is reported that alfalfa in
some sections will be ready to cut in
about two weeks.
Hay-The supply of old hay is prob
ably more nearly cleaned up than for
several years. Reports have reached
US that buyers have been offering to
contract new crop hay for, from $500
to $500 yer ton. but we have been
unable to confirm these reports.
Livestock-There has been but lit
tie activity in the local livestock mar
ket and prices for stock stuff are
rather low. Dairy cows appear to be
in demand and good cows are selling
high.
Sheep and Wool-Reports from
range lambing have been only fair
Range shearing is well. under way and
wool is coming in quite rapidly. There
have been practically no wool buyers
IN the field, and probably due to the
uncertain market, there will be more
wool consigned than sold.
cream-Receipts seem to be on the
increase, while there has been small
decline in price. Buyers today are
paying 53c ID. for sour cream, and 60e
ID. for sweet cream. The Hazelwood
Creamery has been delayed in the
opening Of their condensary plant due
to delays in arrival of equipment, but
they expect to open the plant abou'
the first Of June.

Fortunate indeed is Caldwell in
having musical director and sing
ing organization capable of putting
across" real opera as did Mr.. Bealc
and his singers Friday night. The
Robin Hood music is adorable. Ev-
cry note has meaning and the whole
opera has so muh melodious consis-
tency and brilliance of construction
that It is a never failing source of
delight. when well sung, to lovers OF
good music.
And Il was surely we'll sung on Fri
day night at Sterry Hall Auditorium.
Such performance could only have
been the result of untiring effort on
the part of both director and singers,
and It well deserved the fine houses
which greeted it at both perform
ances and which made the opera a
financial success.
The beautiful scenery designed by
Miss Pearl Hall, and the lighting eff
fects by Harold Jester and Harley
Philpott were worth DeKoven's
music and aided materially in the ar
tistic success of the opera.
Miss Hall Stars
Robin Hood certainly scored a de-
cided and we'll deserved hit, and it is
not easy to decide at whose feet to
cast most of the honors.
Miss Pearl Hall, as Lady Marian,
was delight throughout the opera.
She has dramatic as we'll as musical
talent and played Maid Marian finely,
sang the music faultlessly and was a
sufficient carrying power in the en-
sembles.
Miss Helen Chalfant was charm-
ing Alan 0ale--with a voice to
match. Her songs and concerted
pieces were admirably sung. 20
Promise Me" especially pleased the
audiene, as we'll as her singing of
"The Legend Of the Chimes"
Miss Catherine Sweetland also
pleased her audience as Annabel the
village maid She was splendid in
the ensembles and sang her solos with
exquisite taste.
Miss Anne Clemens was very good
as Dame burden, singing we'll and
acting this part cleverly.
Take Parts Capably
Ezra Hinshaw, as Robin Hood, dis
played tenor voice of great promise,
singing especially we'll in his scenes
with Lady Marian.
James Hawkes., as the willy sheriff
of Nottingham, displayed some real
talent as comedian. He has a good
voice, too. which he used with tell
ing effect.
Harold Hawkes. was a jolly Friar
Turk, amusing the eye as we'll as the
ear and doing some excellent singing
as well.
Harold Jester played Will Scarlet
splendidly, his good bass voice and
easy stage manner being a pleasure
Throughout the opera.
Cecil Pollard, as the protege of the
sheriff. was amusing and energetic,
doing full justice to the part of Sir
Guy; and Russell Kinney was good
as Little John.
The men did some especially good
ensemble singing in the second act.
The Tinker's Chorus went beautifully
and should have had some repetition.
The sextette for male voice, Friar
Tuck's song. as announced by himself
lin tranquillo San Francisco-was
admirably done.
Musical Features Splendid
The finales and concerted numbers
were brilliant and beautifully sung
by a chorus full of life and animation.
More credit is due Mr.. Beale for
recruiting an excellent orchestra
which measured up to the standard of
the performance. playing the fine
overture we'll and giving able support
to the singers.

BULCARIA'S CLAIM
 TO ADMISSION IN LEAGUE OPPOSED
Austria Only Former Enemy State Virtually Sure
 Of Being Taken in.

GENEVA, Nov 29.-Austria is the only former enemy state of the All lied Governments who is likely to be admitted to the League of -Sa- tions without serious opposition, ac- cording to the developments in the discussion of the subject before the Assembly of the League today.
 Admission of Bulgaria is favored by the most of the delegates but will be opposed strenuously by Jugo- Slavia.
 The French Government is reso- lutely opposed to Germany's admis- sion Germany has not formally ap- piled for admission, but has intimated that it would accept if invited to join A two-thirds vote of the Assembly is necessary to take in new member Consequently, as there are forty-one governments represented in the As sembly, a vote of twenty-eight for admission would be necessary.
 Thirteen other states have formally applied for admission. They are Els tIlDllld, U M ItpuuliA, Monaco, Finland, Luxembourg. Leich tenstein, Costa Rica, San Marino Iceland, Georgia, Armenia and Lith uania.
 When the delegates to the Peac5 Conference were making up the lis of states to be invited to become members of the League. the United States objected to invitations beine sent to Costa Rica, San Domingo anG Mexico, on the ground that the gov ernments of these three countries were not sufficiently stable to be recognized The objection of tho American State Department to Costa Riea was that it did not recognize the defacto Tinoco government fThe United States has since recog nized the Acosta government O Costa Rica.)
