LEGION AND AUXILIARY PLAY
MADE A BIG HIT FRIDAY

Safety First" a comedy drama in
three acts was presented at the HOPE
opera house Friday evening by the
American Legion Post and the wo-
mems Auxiliary. In spite Of the cold
weather the seating capacity of the
onera house was taxed to the limit
before the first curtain rose
The play itself was good on. and
the parts had been assigned most
acceptably. Every member of the
cast took his or her part as If born to
1t, in fact 1t was an "all-star" cast
Following is the personnel of the

AS large number of people were
unable to attend owing to the weathe,
conditions there is quite demand
for another staging of the play. It I.
probable that it will be given AGAR

ORGAN MISSING

Handicapped, but undaunted, the
actors in the touring "drammer''
were doing their best, but their ef-
forts were spoiled by the rude COM
ments of small boy at the back of
the hall.
At last, after some of his best
scenes" had been spoiled, the hero
hissed melodramatically:
Ladies and gentlemen, five years
ago I lost monkey. Tonight it
has turned up again at the rear of
the hall.''
The applause and laughter which
greeted this brilliant sally had hard
ly died away when the voice of the
insulter was heard to ask blandly:

SHOES.
Philadelphia, April 20.-Whole-

very good business and in some es-
adjustments stocks are very low.
Retail trade has been well stock

ST. Paul, April 20. - Implement
dealers here report surprisingly
large demand from farmers of the
northwest despite the reported
shortage of money. The demand
for tractors, however, has been
very light.
Pittsburgh, April 20.-Hardware
and builders tools are in better de-
mand and the jobbers report that
outside retailers are ordering more
freely.
Chicago, April 20.-The steel in
dustry is advancing by leaps and
bounds in this section with the
leading producer operating at S3.6
per cent of capacity this week, a
gain of SO over alst week
Pittsburgh, April 20.-The fact
that plants which handle material
from ore to finished products have
ceased to sell semi-finished steel
is arousing anxiety among the
plants which depend upon the open
market for blooms, billets, slabs
and other semi-finished products.
LUMBER.
New Orleans, April 20. - While
some of the large lumber mills in
this section are running at full ca
pacfty the average production is
only about 81 per cent while or
ders are exceeding the cut by Is to
20 per cent. Stocks are being re-
duced and prices are steady.

KANSAS CITY.

Kansas City, Mo, April pa
survey OF the southwest shows
trade and financial conditions as a
whole in a healthier condition than
at any time in more than a year,
according to officials of the largest
bank in the southwest. Markets
for the principal products of this
section are maintaining their ad-
Vanced prices. With very few eX-
ceptions these prices HOW have
reached a point wnere the producer
is assured of a profit.
Money is piling up in the re-
serve centers and ample funds for
financing all sound enterprises are
available, although the easier rates
and enlarged supply of loanable
funds have not taken full effect as
bullish influences. Hand to mouth
buying still prevails in this section.
In the flour milling industry small
lot buying is the rule but this is
regarded as a sign that speculation
has been eliminated and mas had a
healthy effect in sustaining prices.
Better weather conditions have
brought out a heavy retail trade
here and have lifted the gloom
which. hung over the department
stores. Contractors and building
trade workers are still far apart
on adoption of a new wage scale
for the year beginning May 1.

Sixteenth district as an anti
Small. committeeman, is promi-
nently mentioned by many Repub-
lican leaders as strong contender
for state chairman, if he becomes a
candidate. Mr. Tanner, numerous
leaders asserted, would be the mo It
logical choice in the interest of
harmony. He and Walter Rosen-
field, Of RocS Island. it was said,
would be the most satisfa Glory
choices with the Smith supporters
if they cannot re-elect the present
chairman.
Political leaders continued to ar
rive on every train this morning,
among the first being Senator Me-
dill Mccormick, and Lieutenant
Governor Fred E. Sterling. Lead
ers of the two factions are quar-
tered in the same hotel and min
gled, more or less amicably, in the

COAL.
New York. April 20.--Anthracite
operators now here declare that de-
mand for that kind of coal is al
most at a standstill here despite
the strike Public service COM
panies, it is claimed, have from one
to five months supply of coal on
hand.

man was a matter of open specula-
ton today in the light of the I'M
certain ground over which Repub-
lican leaders must travel before the
convention opens.
Small Strength Discussed.
While the newly elected state
committee will not meet within the
next two weeks, the comparative
strength of the Small and anti
Small' factions in the committee is
the subject of almost as much dis
cussion as the convention.
Small leaders claim seven of the
ten Cook county committeeman and
these, with at least four down-state
members, have been conceded TO
Small or Colonel Smith by some of
the "anti-Small" leaders.
Colonel Smith is said to have
strength in the committee where
the governor has not, and some of
the administration supporters are
counting upon that situation to
muster under the Smith banner the
required IS members to control the
committee.
Few supporters of the combined
or individual anti-Small organiza-
lions will go beyond II members
in concessions to the state admin
istration and many will not go that
far, claiming that an anti-adminis-
tration combine will control the
committee with several votes 10
spare.

DELIVERY TRUCK
BLOWN ON WALK
BY STRONG WIND

Wind provided motive power
enough to blow a Palace Cleaning
and Dyeing company delivery truck
half block down the street and up
on the sidewalk.
The Palace company is located at
1914 Second. avenue. The truck was
parked in front of the shop, on the
south side of the avenue. A big
puff of wind gave it start, and the
wheels turned somewhat TO the
left Down the street went the
truck. 1t angled across the street
and ended up by hopping the curb
in front of the Holtorf barber shop,
1921 Second avenue. on the north
side of the street.
Luckily, traffic was slack at the
time, and no damage resulted from
the wild ride of the delivery truck.
It's left front fender was bent by
woodwork. with which it came in
contact at the front of the barber
shop. The removal of glass signs
below the plate glass windows of
the shop, for repairing, had taken
them from the path of the truck.
