WOMEN OF ENGLAND
 SEEK APPOINTMENTS

LONDON, March 30 (by Associated Press) British women are beginning to demand the appointment of mem bers of their sex as diplomats in for eign services. They do not ask to be made ambassadors or ministers but there is no knowing how soon they may. At present they seem to be con- tented with suggesting that women be appointed as councillors, one to each British embassy.
 The idea has been put forward by Professor Winifred Cullis of Cam bridge university, who stated in an address before the English Speaking Union, that women could aid the British ambassadors and ministers in interpreting the points of view of people of other nations, now that women have a voice in the govern ment. She also proposed that women should be sent on special diplomatic missions. Unfortunately, she added, many ambassadors now are strongly opposed to such ideas.

LOAD BARCES WITH COAL ON
 GREAT LAKES

PHILADELPHIA, March 30 (by As soctated Press). -r To expedite the movement of coal to ports on the Great Lakes when lake shipping re- opens this spring, the Pennsylvania railroad is loading lake coal boats tied up for the winter at Cleveland. Erie. Ashtabula and Sandusky. The plan is being carried out for the first time this year. It will enable the lake boats to move cargoes aggregating about 100000 tons as soon as lake ports are again re-opened.
 Normally about 2S,OO0,OOO tons of coal are delivered by the railroads at the lake ports during the shipping season. Most of the coal is destined for Duluth for industrial uses and railroad fuel In interior points in the northwest, about 200 coal boats being engaged in the traffic. The Pennsyi- vania railroad carries approximately 20 per cent of the coal, principally from the central region of it's system.
 Under the early loading plan it is expected that great deal of the con- gestion and delay attending the movement of coal when the lake ship ing season opens will be avoided.

PORTUGUESE LOOK TOU.S. IN
 THEIR PLIGHT

LISBON, March 30 (by Associated Prc&sl.-The Portuguese are attempt, ing to follow the example of the Amer jeans and force a decline in the ex. cessiVe prices of food and clothing by refusing to purchase. The people are indignant at the continued advance of the cost of the necessities of living, particularly the price of codfish, which is the chief article of food for the poorer families.
 The city councils of Lisbon and Oporto are attempting to stop the exactions of the profiteers by pur- chasing large quantities of codfish from Newfoundland and selling it at one-third the price extorted from the public by shopkeepers. It is hoped that this will bring down not only the price of fish but that of meat.
 The newspapers exhort the public to refrain from buying rice in order to bring down the price and au- nouncements have been made of several cuts to come ill that food.
 The Portuguese public is looking to the United States to rescue them from their plight Unverified rumors have been circulated that shiploads of foodstuffs, clothing and shoes are on their way from America to flood the markets here at prices available to all. Many householders are re- fusing to buy at present prices say ing, T will wait until the American ships have come"

 OF CALIFORNIA

LOS ANGELES, March 30 (by As- sociated Press). Bodies of Pic Pico last Mexican governor of California and his wife, Dona Baria Ygnacio Alvarado de Pico, which have been resting for twenty-seven years in Old Calvary cemetery, few blocks north of Los Angeles business district were removed recently to a final rest ing place in a mausoleum on El Puen- .te Rancho, east of the city. The re- mains were placed in a crypt suitably inscribed, donated by Waited P Temple, son of a Southern California pioneer who married a member of a prominent early Spanish family.
 When Don Pic died in 1894, his body was placed iu an iron tomb, brought by him around Cape Horn His wife had been buried in 1853 in this same tomb.
 Pic Pico was the first native born Californian to serve as governor of his territory, and also was the last Mexican governor of California He was born in 1901 at San Gabriel, near here. He was the grantee of Rancho Paso de Bartolo, near Whittier, where he erected a large adobe home which he named Fl Ranchito and which is still preserved as an historic land. mark.
 The placing of the bodies of Pic Pico and his wife In the memorial mausoleum brings a successful end to many movements started in the past twenty years to pay higher tri. bute to his memory.

TELLS REASON
 FIRE HAZARD
 IDAHOISCREA7'

MOSCOW, Idaho. March 30 (by As. sociated Press) That the fire haz- ard in the forests of northern Idaho is worse than in any other section of the United States was the statement made here recently by c. c. Delayan, fire assistant on the Occur d'Alene national forest, in an address before forestry students of the University of Idaho.
 Although north Idaho's rainfall is more abundant than ia many other sections, there is practically none during the months of July and Au- gust, when forest fires are at their heighth. He said; During this period, high westerly winds sweep the timbered sections having a pow erful drying effect.
 eve have the minimum of rainfall and humidity occurring when the winds, temperature, sunshine and eva poration are greatest, a combination of factors which puts the forests in a most inflammable condition. In north Idaho the frequent spring and fall rains give rise to very dense type of forest which creates an abund- ance of inflammable material and en- ables the fires to burn fiercely and spread"
 Mr, DelaVan recently was detailed to make an investigation of the eli. matic factors affecting the fire haz, ard of the northern region, in con. Junction with J. A. Larsen, United States forest examiner of the Priest river experiment station.

Two chatauquas Coming.

Miss Beachamp, advance agent for |
the White-Myers Chautauqua, of Kan
sas City, Mo-. was In Plain Dealing
Wednesday of last week In the interest |
OF her employers. Some Of our best
citizens committed themselves several
years ago and brought to this commu-
nifty its first chautauqua number. The
chautauqua proved such success that
it was repeated year after year, until
1t Is now an eargerly anticipated enter
tainment of the year.
These same men, men who have
community spirit enough to realize the
educational value of these chautau-
quas, have this year selected two COM
panies-the White-Myer and the
Edwards Lyceum--the former with
four numbers and the latter with two.
The dates as given by the White-M Myers
Chautaulua to be given in Plain Deal
ing are AS follows:
On November Sd VictOr's MetrOp0li-
tan TrOubadOurs--five Italians-whO
will furnish the audience with music
played with the pathos Of their native
country. On November 21st Frank G.
Arlnitage will amuse the audience with
popular travelogues. character portray
ais. miscellaneous programs and Dick
ems lecture recitals. On December
10th there will appear the Emily
Waterman Entertainers. Miss Water
man was in one Of the numbers that
appeared here last year and proved
herself an exceptional success. For the
benefit of those who did not hear her.
we add that she is talented reader
and impersOnatOr. She will have with
her this year two young ladies, Misses
Bertha Kriber and Velma Scott, the
| former violinist and the latter q
| pianist and soprano. The last number
| Of these entertainments will be the
/ BOyds, in an evening Of music, reading
and sketches, including Ernest Henri
Boyd, reader, baritone and pianist, and
Blanche Ferman Boyd, soprano, pianist
and pianologue. This attraction Is
booked for the evening Of February
18th.
Postmaster John III. Allen, among
those promoting the chautauquas, has
not been furnished with the two dates
Of the Edwards Lyceum numbers, but
it is arranged that the dates are not to
conflict with the others dates. In
their programs there is found an
always popular fancy Of amusement
ventriloquism-which Is going to be
very popular with every one, old and
young.
Plain Dealing should congratulate
itself upon the efforts of these men II
bringing to our town two such high
class chautauQuas.
