the post.
In 1915 the post passed into the
hands OF Col. Auguste Choteau and

years. Washinton irving visited the

Ants Eat Out Pillars

Special TO The World
BLACKWELL, April 29.--The
white Australian ants have so in
1ured the wooden pillars support
ing the center OF the department
store OF Kennedy brothers that It
has become necessary for them to
be replaced with steel. The ac-
tions and habits OF these ants are
peculiar and very destructive.
The adult ant bores into the wood
and when IA tunnel OF some length
is made, lines this with the softest
OF mud. In this are the larva OF
the ant and and endless chain of
tunnels that finally make the wood
spongy, crumbly substance that
powders into fine dust upon
touching.

WITH JANE NONik As
STAR, Is REPEATING

4 drama that moves with the
refreshing sweep Of strong wind
through tail tmbers was revealed
FOR the first time At the Pastime
theater yesterday when Colleen
Of the Pines starring Jane Novak,
was thrown upon the screen.
The delicate blonde beauty of
the star, her superb handling of
the big scenes and the excellent
support Of the cast all contri-
buled toward the success of the
production.
The nobility Of self-sacrifice is
the theme As the elder sister.
Miss Noyak takes upon her own
slender shoulders the burden OF
mistake committed by her
younger sister. The father is a
religious bigot whose family has
been brought up under the most
rigid regulations. They form an
interesting group of characters,
however. out Of whose lives a
strong drama has been woven. It's
a Chester Bennett production.

was rounded up yesterday by po-
lice, When arraigned for trial,
they trooped into the court room,
the women chanting.
Argument started at once. There
was no chance to find out what it
was all about-but the judge final
ly got line on the proceeding
and announced:
Fifty dollar fines all around
and 20 days in Jail"
There was sudden silence.
Then
Six babies started to cry, none of
them selecting the same key in
which to pitch its tones.
-Four women started pounding
their foreheads, screaming. chant
ing, moaning, pleading, and spank
ing the crying babies.
-Four men started arguing at the
top of their voices and urging the
women TO keep quiet, and to keep
the children quiet. There was no
hope Of establishing silence. The
babies intended having their way.
The men were determined to put
their case up to the officers, who
were starting to search them.
The men were searched. There
was much money. Then it was
decided that two men could be put
on bond and go to look after their
cars and ITO get attorneys if they
wanted to appeal the case. These
two started on their .errand and
the rest were marched down stairs
to the jail. The chant they sang
as they went down the stairs
sounded like a funeral dirge--it
was chanted under the directions
of the elderly Gipsy woman who
sang between puffs from her Gig
arctic. At a late hour last night,
the chant could still be heard.
