New Furs from Alaska

An open season for trapping bea-
vers and martens in Alaska has been
announced by the Secretary of Agri-
culture. This is the first time since
1910 that these animals have been
available quarry for fur trappers. In
1910 it was discovered that the bea-
vers had entirely disappeared from
some parts of Alaska and that the
martens were rapidly being extermi-
mated, and the United States Govern
ment stopped all hunting and trap
ping. Recent Investigations show that
during the past ten years, both bea-
vers and martens have increased to
sufficient extent in number of dis
tricts to warrant at least one open
season for trapping. In some districts
the beavers are still scarce. These
will not be opened and all districts
will be closed again if they do not
recover normally from this years
trapping.

Fire at Glasgow

Early on last Thursday morning
the Aetna Hose, Hook and Ladder
Co., received an alarm for fire on
the Bradley farm at Glasgow. The
local fire-fighters made quick run
to the place but upon their arrival
found the barn on the place blazing
beyond control and therefore diverted
their attention to the saving of any
other buildings that might catch fire.
The farm is tenanted by Harry c.
Wilson and it was due to his quick
discovery of the blaze that his live
stock was not cremated. Mr.. Wilson
was awakened by the flare of the fire
and rushed to the barn and led sew,
eral head Of cattle, horses and calves
to safety. The hay and straw in the
place was totally destroyed.
The fire broke out in the hay NOV
again on Friday and the local fir
company was again summoned ant
extinguished the blaze with sligh
loss.

j. R. FULTON TAKES
OVER NEWARK STORE
New Manager Of Continental
Store Makes Many
improvements

J. R. Fulton has taken over the
Continental Store, in the Opera House
Building, and his congenial and busi-
ness-like manner has won for him
scores of friends in his adventure.
The Continental was always a pop
ular store with Newark people and
its neighbors, and Mr.. Fulton is see
ing to it that it continues so and from
the appearance of the store his un-
dertaking will be fulfilled. The new
proprietor is from Philadelphia and
he has brought metropolitan store
ideas with him and expects that local
buyers will soon appreciate this fact.
The store is under his personal super
vision and he is always willing to
listen to any points that his GUS
toners may suggest toward the
betterment of service.
Up until Saturday Mr.. Fulton is
conducting a special ''get acquainted
sale" and this sale which has been in
progress since last Thursday has won
the Fulton Store many patrons.
With the brightest season of the
year on us nothing could be more ap.
propriate than new and bright
stock of merchandise such as has
been installed by Mr.. Fulton. He is
carrying a full line Of groceries
vegetables, ETC., besides line Of
rubber shoes and artics for men
women and children. One of the fea
lures of the store is the display o.
dolls, toys, trimmings, etc., that arr
appropriate for making the 'kiddies'

MYSTERY SOLVED
Elsie Jester Who Left Home
Found; Goes Back to
Mother

The mystery of the disappearance
of the local 14-year-old girl, known
as Elsie Jester, was cleared up on
last Thursday, when she was found
living at local home. The girl, whose
real name was Chance, lived here
with Mr.. and Mrs. c. L. Jester, of
125 Cleveland Avenue, who moved to
Newark about three years ago.
On Saturday morning, November
26, the girl left the Jester home and
the local authorities and the Will
mington police made a thorough
search for the girl. On last Thurs
day, officer Tyrens discovered the girl
living with local family, and took
her before Magistrate Lovett. Here
she claimed that she was willing to
return to her mother in Denton, Nd,
and this being acceptable to the
testers, the girl was sent back home,
Newark post., 1921-12-07

Last Thursday afternoon there was
just that tang in the air that made
ones feet start walking and we walk
ed right out Main Stret to Huber's
Driving Park and would have prob
ably kept on walking but around the
circle we noticed some excellent
pieces of horse flesh working out and
also noted that it was Herman Tyson
who was doing the driving. With
such an attraction as this it was i'm
possible to continue on, without at
least one look around. 1t was our
first visit to the horse training plant
but it will not be the last. 1t was the
trainer, Mr.. Tyson, we wanted to
write about when de decided that we
would write, but we found that we
would have to go to other quarters to
learn much of him. The first thought
in Mr.. Tyson's mind is the horses
that he is training and he would
praise them to the sky but nary a
word about himself.
At the training plant we found &C
commodations for about forty horses,
the boxes are roomy, light and sani-
tary. The location of the mill is ideal,
being convenient to Newark and yet
far enough away from traffic to per-
nit the younsters to be broken with
out any danger of having them spoil
ed through fright of autos, trucks
or steam cars.
Twenty-four head of horses are
now quartered at the stables and
Mr.. Tyson is assisted in handling the
string by Joseph Casey, who has beer
with him a number of years. The
open fall has been great help tt
Mr.. Tyson and all the animals are ir
fine condition. Mr.. ]. Writ Willis
the Wilmington leather merchant
has the local trainer under contract
and spends great deal of his time
at the training mill. Mr.. Willis owns
twelve of the horses that are quar-
tered at Huber's, the remainder be
longing to gentlemen who have beer
patrons of Mr.. Tyson for the pas
years, his contract with Mr.. Willis
giving him the privilege of taking as
many outside pupils as he can con
veniently handle.

The conference was well attended and
girls from all parts of the State were
present. The local High School had
no representatives.

Women's College, addressed the gath
ering on Saturday. She took as her
subject, Recreation in Relation to

MIDDLE STATES MAY
HAVE CONFERENCE
University of Delaware Anxi-
Gus for Organization to
Control Athletic Events

For years the majority of the col
leges in Delaware, Maryland, Penn
sylvania, New York and New Jersey
have been in favor of the organiza-
tion Of Middle States Conference
for the control Of college athletics. |
One of the strongest advocates of this
conference has been Dean E. Laur-
ence Smith, Of the University Of
Delaware, and since DR.. Walter
Hullihen has become president Of the
institution he has been a strong sup
porter of the movement.
Although in the making for a long
time this conference has never be-
come anything definite, but across the
horizon now is seen hopes that will
probably materialize before the col
leges enter into their baseball
schedules.
On last Friday night DR.. Hullihen
and Dean Smith, representing Della
ware, attended meeting on the mat
ter Of organizing the conference. The
meeting was held in Philadelphia and
much to the surprise Of all present
nearly every institution of any size
in the States named above was rep
resented with the exception of Penn
sylvania. Several of the larger col
leges have proven draw back to the
plans of the smaller institutions, but
they had representatives present at
Friday nights meeting. Why these
institutions, which are the largest of
the district, should act in this manner
is topic that is being discussed by
the other colleges without avail.
With about six colleges evidently
against the conference, there are
about thirty that are in favor of the
organization and if the five or six
larger institutions fail to come under
the fold before the next meeting
which will probably be held in Febru-
airy of next year, they may find them
selves on the outside looking in.
These conferences are now in ex-
istence in every part of the United
States except this district and have
proven their worth IN the manage
ment of college sports. The main
object of the conferences is to man.
age athletic competitions and put
them on a level that will place them
above any doubt of professionalism
or other evil that might creep in.
The meeting last Friday night was
taken up with argument pro and con
on the matter and although nothing
definite was shaped out of the mass,
many points of interest were cleared
up. 1t was the intention of many of
those present to pass set of rules
and bylaws for the organization but
this matter although discussed was
not passed on. The various repre-
sentatives were requested to present
to their institutions the purposes of
the conference and to report before
the next meeting the general trend
of opinion.

However, Are Sent to
Mothers Home

New York. Dec. 27.-~whcn Mrs.
Anne lrquhart Potter Stillman opened
the hall door OF her apartment. at 910
Fifth avenue. Christmas morning, she
found two small envelopes lying on the
floor. One was addressed 10 James A.
Stillmnn, it., eldest son Of the banker
and tho other 10 Alexander Stillman.
second son Of Mr.. Stillmnn. The on
velopcs had not passed through the
mails They had been placed there by
some one. but Just who that person was
Mrs. StIlman has not been able to
learn. Each envelope contained q
rhcck, the amount Of which was not
revealed. and they represented the
christmas presents of the banker TO his
two sous.
Miss Anne StiIlman has been a. the
homo Of her mother since Friday. but
there was no envelope for her. II was
the first Christmas that she has not re-
ccived a siZablc check or somr other
token from her father. Miss Stillman
has not heard directly or indirectly
from Mr.. Stllman. although more than
three days have passed since she
reached the city. She probably will see
hcr father at luncheon Wednesday
somewhere in Lower Manhattan. which
Mrs Stllman has advised the three
children 10 attend.
Happy Family Gathering
The above was the outstanding in
cident that attended the Christmas
celebration and reunion of the Stllman
children in the home Of Mrs. Stillmau.
The celebration was described last night
by Mrs. Stllman as "a very happy
family gathering. All members Of the
immediate Stillman family. with the
exception of James 4. Stillman, were
present. The Christmas spirit pre-
vailed. and under its spell Mrs. Still
man counsclcd her children against any
animosty toward their father because
of the divorce suit.
Last Christmas Mr.. StlImau sent
James. 1r., rife a. a present. The
package was not even opened, such were
the feelings of the boy toward his
father at the time. II was Immediately
sent back to the banker. But the checks
that arrived this Christmas will not be
returned In line with the desire 10
disassociatp tho affairs Of her children
from the divorce suit Mrs. Stillman has
advised her sons to retain the checks.
These facts were brought out through
an inquiry as to whether Miss Stillman
had broken with her father, TO which
Mrs. Stillman replied:
"No. There is no reason why she
should. Why should children become
involved in the difficulties OF their par
cnts? have told them that they showed
their feelings once and that was enough.
The children are going to have luncheon
with him Wednesday. | told them to
go. There is no reason why they
should not go. There is no hostility to-
ward Mr.. Stillman. II any feeling OK
lists at all it is feeling of pity.

Baby Guy any presents!' she was
asked.

Reedsport Not
Defaulting On
Bond Interest

Press reports to the effect that
the city of Reedsport had default
ed in the paymest of interest on
it's bonds due May 1, last, held by
the state treasurer, are denounced
by State Treasurer Hoff as untrue
and unjustified by the facts and
as only tending toward destruction
of the credit of the municipality
involved.
"To correct any impression that
may have been conveyed by recent
newspaper statements that the
city of Reedsport has defaulted in
the payment of interest on its
bonds due May 1, 1921, held by
the state treasurer, please be ad-
vised that this interest has been
paid in full, reads a statement pre-
pared by Hoff.
''It frequently happens that
there are few days delay in
meeting interest payments due on
the bonds of the various Oregon
municipalities but this is never
considered sufficient reason for
publishing to the world that they
have defaulted in their obligations
thereby discrediting the munich
