MACFAR[ANE TALKS
At TENT TONIGHT

Peter Clark Macfarlane, who Is t.
lecture here tonight from the Ct.u-
tauqua platform. is best known as i
writer. For years articles, stori ries
and novels have flowed from his pen
to find wide acceptance with the read
ing public. The American people love
him best for his stories In magazines,
especially for those two inimitable
"Gobs" of the destroyer fleet "Bilge"
and Ma" whose humors, whose au-
dacities. whose pranks and whose he
roisms. made the home folk laugh and
exult as the two corn-fed heroes and
their mates staggered in baronial
castles. 1t was while living for
months at Queenstown, with occa-
sional trips to sea upon the destroyers
engaged in submarine hunting, that
Mr. Macfarlane gathered the material
for the Cob" stories.
When the American army began to
play its larger part in France, Mac
farlane went there, penetrating into
every available experience of army
life. At the fronts front he cleaned
ais material for the story of the stolen
"chow" wagon which appeared in the
Saturday Evening Post under the title
of Gross and Double Cross" "Afri-
can Golf" so widely approved by the
roe oil ho I'd
experiences.
Macfarane has developed won-
derful knack of interviewing celebri-
ties and will discuss tonight some OF
the great characters of modern his
tory who have opened up their very
! souls to him. 1t has been his privi-
iege to know intimately and write
about many of the great persons OF
the day and his estimates of public
men have been surprisingly justified
by elapsed time. He interviewed and
wrote notable articles ON Mckinley,
Taft, Roosevelt and Wilson. He OBJ
| tanned the first authentic interview
! from General Goethals. He has inter-
viewed the mysterious Colonel House
and the redoubtable Hiram Johnson.
| The fighting senator from California
is a great admirer of Macfarlane. Re-
Gently he said, Il have been with
many of those who are considered
orators and great speakers. There
are none l would rather listen to than
Mr.. Macfarlane AS a public speaker
he has few equals and no superiors.'

PLANT FOR SULPHUR
RECOVERY SUCCESS

Extraction of sulphur by new
and superior process has been started
at the mines west of Winnemucca, ON
the western Pacific railroad near the
town of Sulphur, according to j. A.
Langwith. who returned to his home
here last evening after spending sew
eral days at the mines. Mr.. Langwith
went out to see the new extractor
started. This is an entirely new
process of extraction and Is the in
vention of Arthur J. Crowley, general
manager and one of the owners of the
mines
The extractor passes all expecta-
tions, according to Langwith, making
clean extraction of all sulphur out
of a charge in less than six minutes.
With one machine carload of pure
sulphur can be produced each day.
Through this process the sulphur
mine has become the leading industry
of Hubmoldt county and is now em.
ploying more men than any other
mine in the county. So many new
uses are being found for sulphur that
the demand is greater than the pres.
ent supply.
Roads are reported by Langwith al
being in bad shape. in some places.
especially so for several miles west
of Pronto and again for several miles
west of Jungo. where they have been
washed out by recent heavy rains.
The goblins" will get the people
of Humboldt county on this road
question, Langwith says, if they don't
look out The gobins in this case
being the wide-awake officers of
Pershing county. The residents o.
Sulphur have been assured tina. a
good road will be built from Lovel5ck
to Sulphur before the next Legislature.
and they they will be asked to sign
a petition to be taken nnto Persbing
county.
Too much stress cannot be laid
upon the Importance of this road mat
ter, in the opinion of Langwith, for
the reason that the sulphur industry
is the most important in this county,
in a mining way, at this time. and
means much to the future welfare of

TWO MEN HELD IN
IDAHO FOR ROBBERY

A telegram has been received at the
aherin's office this afternoon from au-
thorities at Caldwell, Idaho. stating
that two men believed TO be the same
who are wanted here for the theft of
an Essex roadster are being held at
that place awaiting identification from
this city. That these two men are the
same Is believed by the Caldwell au-
thorities, as they answer the descrip-
tions given by Officers Brady, Ducker
and Manager Ed Dyer of the Verdi
Lumber Company while in that part
OF the country couple of days ago
and who returned home Sunday after
noon following a strenuous trip to
Boise. Idaho, in search of the auto
thieves
Although they we're unable to over
take the bandits. they were able to
keep track of them most OF the way
the tire tracks being discernible in
many places. II was learned that the
two men stopped at Jordan Valley and
had held conversation with a doctor
who was on the street, but that no at
tempt was made to capture them. as
the constable was out of town and no
one else was anxious to mix with men
OF their calibre. 1t was reported by
different people along the way that
the stolen car had been seen. but no
attempt to stop the thieves had been
made. Tracks of the Essex were also
seen leaving the road and entering a
field. the reason for this not being
known.
The officers, although in a Ford.
gained three hours on the thieves,
and would perhaps have oyertaken
them had they not reached Boise and
disappeared.
Word was received here yesterday
of the recent robbing OF bank at
Weiser and II is believed that the two
men sought are the criminals.
A telegram was also received today
from Sheriff Goodman of Burns. stat
ing that 1t is his belief that the car
has been run into the river and that
the two men have made good their
escape, but that every possible pre-
caution is being taken to capture them
II possible.
Nothing has developed TO shake the
theory that the two men are the same
who stole an automobile at Nampa
and who also shot Sheriff Smith of
Fallon.
