Catalonia In History.

Catalonia, under the name of Ills pania Tarraconensis, constituted a part of Roman Spain. It was invaded and subdued by the Alans, and, after them, by the Goths, who gave the country the uame of GUlhuiania, changed in the course of time to Cuta- lonia. In the eighth century the Arabs gained possession of the southern part When Churlempgup. in 7SS, sUbjuguied Spain as far as the EbrO river, Catu- lonia formed the central portion of the Spanish mark, governed hy FrunSiSh counts who had Barcelona aSthrir res idence.

SLIDE THREATENED

Warming has been issued by the city officials of Juneau to a number of property owners on lower Front street that they are in the path of slide that may occur at any time on account of a crack that has appeared in the hillside.
 The crack is about two hundred feet above the street level, starting at a point about two hundred feet beyond the City Dock and, taking a horseshoe shape, ends about two hundred feet farther south. The width of the crack is in some places as much as two and one half feet.

lock them. When one wishes to en- ter the hotel they must press a but ton, when the clerk will come to the door, open a small wicket and, if one has the passward, he is admit ted. Another peculiar feature in Italian hotels. and one that seems commendable. is that the elevators do not run into the lobby or office, but into a vestibule just off the street, so that on arriving at hotel you are taken direct to your apart ment where you may have oppOrtun- ity to powder your nose before reg istering. Both these customs are universal in Italy.
 We spent three days in Naples during which time We saw all worth seeing in and about the city, includ- ing the Cathedral of St. Genero, and San Carlos Opera House. We also went across the arm of the bay to Pompei, from where We could look iup above our heads to smouldering Vesuvius.
 From Naples to Rome by rail oc- cupied five and one half hours. We were crowded. with about fifteen others, into compartment built to | accomodate s or 10. They call them carriages over there. We bought first class tickets and were very glad of it, for if we were travelling first class l do not care for third. We noticed that Italians seem to be en' gagged by the railroad companies be- cause of what they do not know about railroading. They display { thorough and consistent ignorance of when a train will leave, where i
 is bound for, or when it will arrive
 at it's destination. The eQuipmen
 is very good, being elcctro!y2ed mos
 of the way, and one imagines the!
 are so near the ground.
 Rome is to me the wonder city I've spent three days there and the,
 were days filled with wonder. w, visited every noted structure that i
 was possible to visit in that time, in
 cluding The Colosseum, The Panthe ' on, attended Vespers at St. Paul
 Cathedral, visited the Vatican witl its noted library and museum. l twas in Rome that we used a tax from nine in the morning till five il the afternoon, for S2.50, America1 money, and enjoyed, it seemed to us
 watching the happiest cabby in al Italy. We had asked the manage
 of a certain American tourist agenc,
 what the taxi rate was by the day and were told $500. On returnin!
 to our hotel in a taxi that night, wC
 asked the driver what ho would
 charge us to call for us in the morn ing and take us around all day. H' said 60 lire, which is about S2.5O il our money. We engaged him ant when he called the next morning he was dressed in all his finery ant throughout the day he would salute other taxi drivers and make a great 1 showing of personally conducting. 1 This interesting story Of the triG of two Skagway women to Europe and return will be continued in OuI lsnnNt issirn II Ed

DRIVE GOES OVER TOP
Sixty Three Members Added to Span
ish War Veterans Order.

The Armstrong Auxiliary of the
United Spanish War Veterans of To-
peka has gone over the top in its mem
bership drive. SiXty-three members
have been added to the organization,
making Topeka the largest auxiliary
in Kansas.
The Armstrong auxiliary was formed
about five years ago. having eighteen
charter members. The auxiliary was
not a national organization until July,
1920. when the department of Kansas
was instituted in Topeka in July, 1920.
An enthusiastic meating was held
Thursday evening in Royal Arcanum
hall, 627 Kansas avenue at which time
results of the membership drive were
made known. The auxiliary adopted
resolution favoring a bill now before
congress OH R. A. and instructing the
secretary to forward a copy of the
same to each Kansas representative.
Arrangements also were made to pres
ent Harrison school with a flag on
Monday afternoon, June 6, at three
O'Clock.

ment is that If the road meant to re-
place all its union men with nom
union men, the management would
not be making the agreement on new
working conditions for which the ex-
ecutive board has been called to To-
peka.
The first session of the joint con-
ference between the officials of the
union and of the road is to be held at
10 o'clock Monday morning at the mo-
tive power office at the shops. That
the conference will continue at least
one week and probably longer is the
forecast Of the union officials.
A. G. Wells, vice president of the
Santa Fe, has denied by telegraph the
statement made by w. A. Freeman,
president of the state labor federation,
that the-road is laying off union men
with the intention of replacing them
with nonunion men. Freeman Friday
wired Samuel Gompers. president of
the American Federation of Labor,
that the Santa Fe was laying off its
union men with the intention of break
ing the power of the unions.
In a statement telegraphed Friday
night from La Junta, Colo, Wells said:
The statement attributed to Mr..
Freeman is gratuitous and erroneous
assumption. The Santa Fe preserved
its forces intact really longer than it's
business justified. There has been
large reduction in force simply be-
cause of diminution in business. and
for the reason that we are not earn
ing money with which to pay en-
pay roll.
There will be no discrimination
against members of the unions when
conditions Justify increase in force"

Santa Fe Shop Federation De-
cIines to Join Freeman.
Company Showing Good Faith,
Says Statement.

The executive board of the, Santa
Re System Federation of Shop Crafts
declines to join with w. A. Freeman
president of the State Federation OF
Labor, in his charge, made to Samuel
Gompers, that the Santa Fe is laying
eff union men with the intention OF
replacing them with scabs.
Z Following a consultation with Free
man after he had sent the telegram,
the board, which is in session at To-
peka, has issued a statement which
clears them from participation in MAX
Ing the charge.
Statement From Federation.
1.-THE statement is as follows:
rive have been requested to make state
merit concerning a telegram quoted in the
evening paper as having been alspatSeth n q
Federation of Labor, to Samuel Gompers,
president American Federation of Labor.
in which 1t, was stated that one of the chief
reasons back OF the laying off Of so many
employees by the Santa Fe railroad at this
time Is a desire upon the part OF the rail-
road company to break up the unions ana
hire non union men to take the places of
those now being released from service.
1--WE are not aware of the source of Free
mans information and do not know what
evidence he may possess upon this subject,
but in behalf OF the system representatives
of the shop trades who are now assembled
in Topeka I desire to publicly state that we
have had no indication from the Santa Fe
management in line with the charge made
by Freeman, as we are at present in To-
peka at the request of the railroad man
agement to meet with them in conference
fer the purpose of drafting new rules and
regulations to govern the employees. of the
company's shops who are all members of
the six shop craft unions.

good faith in going along with the organ

soprano.
Miss Reva Whitehair, pupil of Pro-
fessor KobaIba, assisted the voice pro-
gram with violin Accomplishments
Perhaps the best received number
was from Samson and Delilah," a
duet by Miss Margaret Bell and Mr..
Mcdonald. All of those taking part in
the recital reflected most creditably on
the training of Professor Dean and the
standards of the Washburn college
music department.
