the world can d. by censurne the
boys from the pulpit" Judge L. J.
Milne, superintendent Of the Nevada
state industrial sch .ol recently told
the progressive business men Of Eiko.
Judge Milne was formerly a judge
of the juvenile court In Salt Lake, and
In that capacity endeared himself to
many youngsters of the community as
well as to the men and women most
interested in the work with boys and
girls. In his address at Elko, Judge
Milne emphasized the necessity for
the proper sort of leadership for boys
and urged the club to endeavor to
provide for competent scoutmasters.
Commenting editorially upon Judge
Mines talk the Elko Independent
said
Judge Milne knows boys and when
he says that this city needs a boys
man we can nearly depend upon it
that we do need him. Milne has been
associated with boys and girls for the
last fifteen years of his life and has
built up a reputation that is not state
wide but 1t is national in its character
as a Juvenile director and man who
can make a good boy out of a bad
boy

RUN OF SHEEP AND MARKET
GOOD AT OMAHA LAST WEEK

Concerning the sheep market at
Omaha last week a circular from
Melady Bros. says
For the first three days of last week
the receipts were liberal. totaling
about $4,000. with indications for q
lighter run the balance Of the week.
Opening prices Monday we're rs to 4oc
lower. Tuesdays market was Gully
steady. and today prices are firm to a
trifie higher.
Best lambs selling the past few
days up to s1n.25; good lambs from
$3.50 to $1,000. and fair to good dried
out early la lbs anywhere from $3.50
to $500. with feeders topping at $500.
Fat yearlings and feeding yearl-
ings are In good demand, fats selling
from $500 to 800 and feeders from
$500 to $500. Very few old wethers
on the rarket. fats bringing $3.50 to
$e.25. with feeding wethers $500 to
$3.50. Old eve trade has be slack.
and heavy weight ewes show q big
decline. Choice western ewes weigh
ing from IS to 100 lbs. bring q nickel
and feeding ewes from 3 to &c. Very
few breeders coming. Demand slow.
Prices ranging from $3.50 to $3.50.
1t looks like the shipments from the
West will be a disappointment as
compared with earlier forecasts of a
heavy run. The prospects OF low
ering freight rates will induce holding
back eve lambs and from present in
dications we are looking for much
lighter receipts. Feeding demand II
increasing daily and the prospects are
that there will be more sheep and
lambs fed iris year. due to the fact
that crop conditions are getting bet
ter in general and a good market Is
looked for In the future.

Masked Ball
Big Success
CarniUaL Features Mark
Fete to Drurys and

By EVELYN c. HUNT.

Quite the most beautiful and en-
,oyable ball given in Washington In
many a day was the masked ball
and carnival given last evening at
Rauscher's by Capt. and Mrs. c. c.
Calhoun and Mrs. Emerson Howe in
compliment to Mr.. and Mrs. Peter
Arthur Drury. jr., and Miss Eliza
beth Howe. With an elaborate pro-
gram, including professional dane
ing, and all manner of carnival fea-
lures, and the guests comprising the
leaders of the diplomatic, official and
residential society, the function was
che of the most brilliant of sew
eraI seasons and fittingly brought
the pre-Lenten season to a close.
The guests were all in costume
and masked, unmasking at mid
night when a seated supper was
served at small tables IN the big
dining room, each table adorned
with a small basket of spring fow-
ers The two ball rooms where the
dancing took place were deliberately
decorated with palms and the walls
were veiled with Southern smilax.
The gay costumes representative of
many lands and periods made a
colorfuI scene that will be long re-
membered

Audience Shows
Appreciation of
Sokalof's Genius

Washington has had so many op-
to hear orchestra music
lately that a regretably small
audience heard the very delightful
program OF the Cleveland Orchestra
yesterday afternoon, Despite an af-
fected manner that suggests in
terpretfve dancing, Nickolai Soka-
lofts conducting gets big results.
The program opened with Rach-
msnInofrs Symphony No. in L
minor. This characteristic compost
ton of the great Russian has one
fault, its length. The mind cannot
stay keyed to the pitch it de-
mands. for so long q time and ap-
preciate it. The Largo gave the
strings an opportunity to prove
their quality and they responded
with good tone, fine phrasing and
ensemble.
The audience made up in en-
thusiasm for its lack in numbers
and recalled Mr.. SokaTofT several
times after each movement. He
worked the orchestra up TO s-bigger
tone than has been heard in some
of the other orchestral music of this
season.
The violinist. Mishel Riastra, ap-
peared with the orchestra as soloisi
in three movements from Lalo''
Spanish Symphony. Despite an Oc'
casional tendency to nat, his tone
is clear and brilliant, sympathetic
in the romantic passages, and hi'
tempo so exact that once or twice
he left the orchestra a half beat be
hind. The Rondo was particular!
we'll played. He received numbe
OF recalls but played no encore.
