WAS WRITER OF PLAYS
o. Western Newspaper Union.

Some Of the old scouts turned their
hands TO queer trades when the indian
fighting days were over. Buffalo Lal
was the owner Of Wild West show.
Edgar 8. Paxson became painter. and
Capt. Jack Crawford was a poet. II
was left for ED Buntline to add AN
other To the list OF unusual things for
q scout 10 do. He became the writer
Of dime novels and the producer OF
melodramas equally exciting.
Judson was his real name. and ID
ward Zane Carroll Judson was the
full title with which his parents bur-
dened him on the day of his birth In
Philadelphia In 1922. He became one
of the boys who ran away 10 sea and
when he was only thirteen he rescued
the crew OF boat that had been run
down by ferry steamer In New York
harbor. Soon afterwards he became q
midshipman I'm the United States navy.
Then the West called him and Jud-
son answered the call. During the
Civil war he was chief of scouts
tier, and after that he wandered all
over the great plains as hunter and
trader. He made the acquaintance of
Buffalo Bill, Wild Bill and Texas
Jack, and began writing his thrilling
tales, part fact and part fiction, about
their lives. Ned Buntline was the
pen name he used I'm his writing. and
as Ned Buntline he became famous.
Buntllne believed that eastern audi
ences would be interested In plays
based on life In the Far West and In
1872 he persuaded Buffalo BIZ and
Texas Jack TO come East and take
part In one OF his melodramas. They
arrived In Chicago one "Wednesday and
found that Buntline was planning to
open the show the next Monday. He
had rented the largest theater In the
city. but none Of the other actors had
been engaged TO appear with the two
scouts. In fact. the play had not yet

ROCKY MOUNTAIN TOM AND
THE BLOODY ESPINoZAS"
q. Western Newspaper Union.

Back In the sixties IN the Colorado
gold camps around Pixies Peak the
warning The Bloody Espinozas are
comingi" struck more terror 10 the
hearts OF the miners than the dread
cry of "Indlansl Indiansi" The
Bloody Espinozas were two Mexicans,
brothers. The Older. Juan Espinoza,
believed that he had a special mission
20 kill oil Americans. He ambushed
them In the daytime and crept upon
them at night. His record OF murders
Is said 10 have totaled 80.
In 1893 he killed two well-known
prospectors OF California Gulch, near
Leadville. Their comrades vowed
vengeance on the Espinozas. and after
long chase and hard battle. they
killed the youngest brother Juan es-
capped and the next year he was back
In his old haunts In the Sangre de
Cristo mountains robbing stage
coaches and wagon trains and mur.
dering settlers and miners. He took
his nephew with him on these raids.
and they grew so bold that a reward
OF 81 800 was offered for their capture,
dead or alive.
At this time there was living at
Fort Garland a little Irishman called
Rocky Mountain Tom. Tom Tobln
was his real name. and he was a close
friend OF Kit Carson. He was one of
the best mountain trailers.
When the report OF the EspInozas'
latest murder was brought to the fort

TAX RUMOR FALSE
MastodOn Township Taxes We're Cor
rectly Spread, Says Treas. Kenney

A rumor was spread about Alpha
and Crystal Falls during the week to
the effect that Mastodon township tax
es had been incorrectly spread. The
rumor has as it's base that the taxes
were spread upon the assessment as
IL appeared before the State Tax Com
missions figures were received.
In order TO vertify this statement
a reporter for the Diamond Drill call
ed upon Treasurer David Kenney last
Friday. Mr.. Kenney was on duty coll
lecting taxes at the store of David
Mendelson. In reply to our query Mr.
Kenney stated that he had taken his
tax roll and compared II with the as
sessment roll and he finds that they
,correspond exactly. He said that he
first heard of the complaint from Mr..
Erikson, agent for the Iron County
Taxpayers Association who came TO
his Office to check up the rumors that
he had heard. Mr. Kenney in response
to Mr.. Erickson's suggestion took the
roll to the supervisors office to have
1t checked.
He finds that the tax roll is an ex-
act copy of the assessment roll which
bears the signature OF the board OF
review and the okey Of the board Of
supervisors.
Asked as to the mining assessments
and their influence upon the tax rate
Mr.. Kenney says that on some prop
critics the valuations were lowered
and some raised but the general res
ult was lowering Of mineral valuations
which has caused an increase in the
tax rate. This has caused some to
think that a mistake has been made
in the spreading of the taxes.

NICK yo0RNAs mo- BuY FEEp

Some time ago Nick Voornas and
DR.. j. p. Edwards got into an argu-
ment as TO the probability OF res
umption OF operations at the local
mines. DR.. Edwards argued that a
mine would resume before January /.
Nick argued against that probability.
The result OF the argument was a
wager by which the one losing the
bet was to furnish a supper for the
Alpha Commercial Club.
Nick lost and DR.. has called his bet,
the result being that tonight the mem
bers OF the Commercial Club will
watch the old year out and the new

VIVIAN STRONG-HART
State College Soprano Wins Favor
in Portland and Seattle-Here
Thursday, March "a

One OF the rarest privileges will be
given the students and townspeople
of Pullman on Thursday, March "a =,
when Mrs. Vivian Strong Hart of Sc
attic will give a song recital during
chapel hour. Mrs. Hart, who was
born in Texas and reared in Wash
ington, received all her musical edu-
cation at Washington State College
under direction of her mother, Mrs
Kuria Strong.
Portland critics, in commenting on
Mrs, Harris appearance in Portland
last month with the Orpheus Chorus
say: Mrs. Hart, the petite Seattle
singer, gives promise of being heard
i'll the not far distant future in grand
opera, for her voice is of exceptional
quality and of the true coloratura
type. 1t is easy for her to sing high
above the staff and trill with rapidity
of the bird. This she demonstrated
in The Hermit Thrush, written es-
pecially for her by a Seattle COM
poser, Mrs. Hazel Thane Summers,
and also in The Wren by Benedict"
The Oregonian states that as
singer she is find" and that any
singer with beauty of her voice is
gifted above the ordinary singer.
Her best test came when she started
to sing the celebrated Shadow
Song" from 'Dinorah,' the aria so
finely sung and made more famous
by Tetrazzini. Mrs. Hart sang to
it's heights with a sure beauty of vo-
cal information that was JOY to hear

WILL EXTEND POWER SERVICE

The engineering department is
busily engaged in perfecting plans
for the new boiler and generator pro-
vided for in the recent appropria-
tions by the state legislature. Sew
eral tunnels and pipe systems to diff
ferent buildings on the campus are
to be changed and tunnels extended
to the new dairy building.
Most of the $4,000 appropriated
to the power plant will be used to
install the new boiler and generator
This will practically double the pow
Ell available for use on the campus.
During the past year the present sys-
TEN has proved inadequate and the
completion of the dairy building also
necessitates additional power. 1t is
planned TO start actual work as soon
as the plans are completed.

ALUMNAE TO PRESENT PLAY

Arms and the Man, the play to
be presented on April by the As
sociation of Collegiate Alumnae, is
perhaps the best known to many of
us through the medium of the mu-
steal comedy, THE Chocolate Sol
der" which is built about this
drama.
Those familiar only with the mu-
steal comedy will be pleasantly sur
prised by the original, with its hui
morous situations and the scintillat-
ing cleverness of its lines.
The choice of play is peculiarly
appropriate this year, since interest
in Bernard Shaw, the author, is re-
vived so keenly.
The A C. A. has been extremely
fortunate in procuring the expert
service of Sarah Truax Albert, an
actress and producer of exceptional
merit, as coach for this production.
The combination of play, coach and
cast promises an unusually success
full performance.

we should receive a special invita-
tion to enter Eldon Jenne in the pole
vault at this meet. The invitation

Jenne is going to Philadelphia to
bring back the bacon on April %.
A year ago Jenne cleared 3 feet
inch in the Northwest conference
meet but was not quite able to clear
the altitude of 3 feet 4 inches. which
is the worlds record. At the Olym-
pics last summer JENNIE was unable
to show his real class because of a
muddy take-off, but this spring at
Philadelphia he should break all
records.
