given the receiver considerable con-
Germ is the collection of a~rrearages.
In order to keep the plant running
it was necessary to borrow $4,000
on receivers certificates. most of
which was expended in improving
the plant and although repeated de-
mands on the delinquents have been
made, the same have not resulted in
reducing the amount due the re-
ceiver upon past due bills. 1t there
fore became necessary to employ ad-
ditional men whose duty it will be
to shut off the supply if the arrears
remain unpaid by July Is, 1921. The
receiver is obliged to pay his debts
as he goes along and is liable as is
the surety filed by him when taking
office, and inasmuch as this is so, it
is equally necessary that he collect
any moneys due to him.
Numerous applications have been
filed recently for new connections
which it is impossible to grant for
the reason that the present supply
is not sufficient to meet the demand.
This condition will undoubtedly be
during the next few months
as it is expected that the receivership
will be wound up within that time
and that a reorganization will take
place. which will result in increas-
ing facilities, giving the people in

receivership will be wound up with
in the next few months. Warning Is
also given that if arrears are not
paid up by July IS, the service being
to those owing money to III
will be turned off.
The receivers statement follows:
"The physical conditions so far
as the equipment is concerned are IN
as good shape as is possible, extern
sive repairs having been made during
the spring so that the maximum
quantity of gas can be produced dur
ing this summer. 1t must be borne
in mind, however, that the general
ing facilities have not been increas-
ed so that the supply, although IN
excess of last year. will not entirely
the demand. The excess IN
production over last year IS being
obtained by the stopping of leaks

In reproducing on the screen the
historical climax to his spectacular
Western film, Bob Hampton of
Placer" Marshall Neilan enlisted the
cooperation of the famous Blackfeet
Tribe.
The Blackfeet are scattered over
MANY miles on the reservation in
Montana and the task of getting a
thousand of them together with the
picturesque attire of the Indians as
sported at m~assacres in the Ameri-
can frontier days proved no easy
task.
Through the cooperation of Bob
Mills. whose former association with
the Great Northern railroad brought
him in personal contact with h
Indians and resulted in his becom-
ing the friend of every member of
the tribe, Mr.. Neilan was enabled 10
bring about a gathering of the red
men.
The matter of rehearsing a thou

Theby, beautiful leading woman
commenting upon her role in the new
Ro~bertson-Cole production which

"I say women" continued Miss
Theby, because to women the dan
ger is more real. Men have their
business cares and worries, and when
the business day is over. there are
clubs and various other forms of re-
taxation. But women, the majority
of them, relieved of the necessity of
earning a living, their homes pre-
sided over by well-paid and trained
servants have very few worthwhile
things to occupy their time, and as
a result they become unhappy
disconnected.

Brinkley is typical of this class OF
women. Reared in an atmosphere of
luxury, her every material want
gratified. she becomes narrowed

To while away the time which hangs
so heavily on her hands, she turns
a willing ear to the cults n creeds

Saint-Saens, Noted
French Composer,
Is Dead in Algiers
Author of ''Proserpine'' and
Other Musical Successes
Could Play Piano With
Skill at the Age of Five
ALCIERS, Africa, Dec. 1s (By The
Associated Press). - Camille Saint
Saens, the French composer, died here
suddenly this morning.

OF Camille Saint-Snens tho famous
Wagner said some forty years ago !:
"He Is the greatest living French com
poser lie was the man of whom
List also once said: 81 and Saint
Saens are the only two men left in
europe who know how to play the
piano, Saint-Saens was everywhere
acknowledged as one Of the greatest t
musicians of his time and his career
overlapped three generations of music
lovers.
Making his premier public appear
ancc as pianist in Paris two years
before the Frcnch Revolution of ts4S,
ne lived to experience the tragedies
or the great European war, into which
his country was plunged in 1914. and.
though then eighty, he was still in
possession of such vigorous energy
that he undertook a mission across
the seas as the French governments
representative at the Panama Pacific
Exposition in San Francisco in 1915,
and also to deliver a series of lectures
IN America rs the First Delegate to
the tranco-American Commission for
the Development of Political. Economic.
The early life of the great composer
was that of 4 "wonder-child." Born
October 3, 1885, in Paris, it is said he
was hardly out of his nurses arms be-
Tore ne developed a passionate intere st
n sounds. At two and half years he
played the piano; he played with taste
and skill at five. He studied under Be-
moist and Halevy, devoting himself to
piano, organ and theory to such pur-
pose that he became prize winner in
the Conservatoire.
lis iirst symphony was written and
performed when he was seventeen with
success by the Societe de Sainte Cecilie.
he became organist of the Church Of
81. Merrl in 1858, and organist of the
Madeleine in 1858. He did some teach
ing also, but gave most of his time to
his beloved occupation of composing.
His facility in that direction was the
basis Of many stories. There are few
erasures on his manuscripts. He put
Ideas down rapidly on paper, chatting
some times the while, and he needed no
piano to assist him. He wrote his
opera, "Prosperine," without having an
instrument in reach.
NJ. Saint-Saens's most celebrated
musical compositions are. with the date
Of their publications: Les Noces de
Promethee, 1857; LA Princesse
Jaune,' 1872; lie Timbre d'Ardent," "
1877; Samson et DELLA" 1877;
