Dili IS FO OF 1 One More Step Toward Settlement with Old Dominion Company In order tht a satisfactory ngreemont may bo reached between the. city and the Old Dominion Copper' Mining Smelting company regarding the granting- by that company of a right of way for tho construction of a now road through north Globo to connect with tho Globe-Roosevelt territorial highway, profile maps of the territory affected aro being drawn by City I'lngi-ncor B. H. Van Wagenen. As has been announced, tho present plan for tho granting of tho right of way is through an exchange of property, tho city to deed to tho Old Dominion a blind alley near tho present slag dump.

This alley, whilo of littlo valuo to the, city, is contiguous to tho Old Dominion property and by securing this ground, that company will avoid tho expense of bridging the nlley. As soon as the necessary profile maps aro completed, Superintendent Dowoll of the Old Dominion will take the matter up with President Charles Sunnier Smith of that company and as Mr. Smith is known to bo favorable to the road building project, it is probable that the niu'cli desired right of way will be secured within a short time. Dennis Was Convicted Also in this case tho defense was an alibi. Fivo Irishmen had been charged with assault with intent to kill.

The prosecution showed that tho riot began at 10 oclock at night, and Dennis, ono of the accused, was trying to prove ly a witness that he was at home and in bed with him tho night of tho trou'blo and did not get up uutil after the row was over rather har'd to believe when it is known that tho two Irishmen roomed within hearing distance of tho fight. "How do you know it was befoio o'clock" tho district attorney inquired. "Wo had a clock in the house." "And did tho-elock strike after Den-nis came in?" "Well, no; tho clock wasn't striking then." "What was tho matter with it!" "It had been out of order for a few days." "Then, if tho clock was not going, how doxyou know that Dennis was in before 8 o'clock?" "Well," tho witness replied, triumphantly, after a moment 's reflection, I know that he was in bcfnro tho time when tho clock used to bo t.trilting eight when it did strike." Poor Dennis was convicted. Sco McElroy for Paints and Oils. O.

THE GREATEST BALLAD WRITER Stephen Foster's Songs Have Stood tho Test of Years "But ono. American writer of popular songs who made a business of writing songs for a living nas over succeeded in striking a chord that continues To vibrato irrespective of the passing yeais," says tho Taylor-Trot-wood magazine. "That writer was Stephen Collins Foster. "Ho has been in his gravo for more than forty-five yenis, but 'Old Black 'Old Undo Ned' and tho 'Old Folks at Homo' appear to bo immortal. These, like 'My Old Kentucky 'Hard Times Como Again No 'Wo Aro Coining, Father and at least a score of others by the same author have becomo true folk songs a part of the thought, sentiment and lifo of tho people.

"Foster was born hear Pittsburg July 4, 1826; and made his first attempt at composition thirteen years later. When ho was only 10 ho published tho song, 'Open Thy Lattice, Returning to Pittsburg after a few years in Cincinnati ho fell in with a musical club and one night sang a song of his own composition 'Louisiana Belle' for tho entertainment of tho club members. Its success in tho clubroom was so great that tho author noxt produced some of tho songs ho had composed while in Cincinnati, among them being 'Uucle Ned' and 'O "These wero communicated by word of mouth throughout tho city and be-camo general favorites. Encouraged by the measure of local success, he published 'Undo Ned' in 1847, but reccive'd nothing for it. 'O Susanna' was published soon afterward and for it tho author was paid $100.

The check received for 'O Susanna' caused him to embark upon tho rather precarious vocation of song writer, and for a timo his productions were turned out with astonishing rapidity, meeting with a sale that at that period was unparalleled Of the 'Old Folks at Home' 300,000 copies wero sold, from which the author received in commissions. "Many think that this was tho most popular song that has ever been written, and it is just as popular today as it was boforo it lost its novelty. Many of tho songs were translated into all tho languages of Europo and some of thoso of Asia and Africa. "Tho last threo-yeurs of his lifo wero spent in Now York, where ho died in 1801. 'Old Folks at Home' was sung as his cofiin was lowered into tho grave."

Men Who Are Going to Try for the North Pole Again RESOLUTIONS OF CONDOLENCE Whereas, On the IHth day of April 1010 tho Angel of Death entered our midst and broke our ranks by taking from us our beloved sister, Dollie Hig-don over tho Great Divido to that Grand Lodge where sho has gone to meet a loved one who had gone before her to that one sweet resting place the Home Beyond the Grave therefore, be it Resolved, That we, tho entire mem-beiship of Winonah Council No. 1, Daughteis of Pocahontas, do most sincerely extend our heartfelt sympathy to the bei caved family, especially those boys and girls who are bereft of a kind, sweet, loving mother. A mother who possessed that kindness which fills every walk of lifo with benevolence and peace.

One who loved her home and loved ones iis no one but a devoted mother can. May these dear ones be consoled by the assurance that tho memory of their dear, patient mother will ever bo held in sweet remembrance by each of us. With cur earnest player may flio God of grace comfoit them with the hope that llecareth for us all and thoy Heed only wait a brief period when in sweetness and in lovo they will meet this loved ono to depart no inoie. Resolved, That in the death of Sister Higilon our cuuncil has sustained the loss of one of its most devoted members; one who wa's ever vigilant of its best interests and untiring in her efforts to sustain the prestige of tho Council, of one whoso kind and cheerful demeanor won for her the rcspoct of all. As ou'r Wenonah, she always performed the duties of her office with credit and honor.

With sorrow, wo remember that her presence will be missed in tho Council Hall and at our social gathorings, but as long as the council fire is kindled by the present members, the memory of Sister Higdou will linger in our minds. Resolved, That we, as devoted sisters, bow in humble, submission to this soio dispensation. --Each member of the Pocahontas lodge feels their bereavement, when wo remember this sweet, good, gentle loved one. To know her was to lovo her, and we have lost a loyal sister who always had a pleasant smile and a cheerful word for ono and all. May the life of this grand, noble sister over be an example to each member as wo struggle down life's rugged decline, and may wo over look forward to that meeting in tho realms of peaco and love, where partings aro no more.

Resolved, Thcrofore, in token of our esteem for our departed sfster, wo appropriately drape our charter for a period of thirty days, present a copy of these, our most sincere utterances, to the family, spread them upon the min-u'tes and furnish same to the daily papers for publication.

Tho problem of salads and their constituents have been an ever greeu topic of discussion with epicurean writ-cis; and many aro tho claims that have been set up as to the neglect of wild plants that could be made to do duty on a dinner bill. The society, therefore, has determined to tackle tho subject of conflict in a practical way, and in its gardens at Wisley, in Surrey, an acre of land has been prepared for planting next month with many thousands of strange plants' over which there has been much said pro and con as to their suitability for salad construction. "Wo will aim by this expe-iment," explained Mr. S. T.

CALHOUN IS SO POPULAR Engagements of New Minister So Numerous He Forgets Dates William J. Calhoun, raconteur, attorney and newly appointed minister to China, is becoming so popular on tho eve of his departure Yor his diplomatic post in the Orient that he is sadly beset to remember his engagements for luncheons, dinners and other affairs when his abilities as a speaker on all subjects aro in demand, says tho Chicago News. Mr. Calhoun was scheduled nnd widely advertised to address members and guests of a certain well known organization last week. The subject of his lemarks was to bo "Patriotism in General." This was "patriotic day" at the club and the members had set much store on the appearance of tho United States minister plenipotentiary and envoy ex traordinary as a drawing card.

This story is not to relate that Mr. Calhoun did not it pear, but only to emphasizo the fact that his mind is torn with conflicting dates as to his appearance. A reporter of the Daily News invaded Attorney Calhoun's office in tho Rookery building ahead of a waiting list of busy looking men. It was at his quest to obtain in advance the manuscript of his speech on "Patriotism." "My speech! ho exdaimed. "What speech "Why, aren't you going to talk boforo a woman's club today?" queried the reporter.

The new minister hold up his hands with an awakening sense. "Well, well!" ho exclaimed. "I remember now. I told Aid I would bo thero today. My goodness, do you know what I was going to talk about "It's a talk on patriotism," he was told.

"Well, well! I remember. It's about time I thought a little about it, isn't it?" "Vnti sop." continued the T.iwver. "I have become so popular sinco my1 appointment as minister to China that lllVliailUila IU Ulllv mi miiiy nuujirtLn have been pouring in on mo that I have almost lost track of them. Howover, I'll have the speech ready in time today." Caring for Children's Eyes The principles to be observed for the preservation of sight are the same in tho case of children as in adults, and in school work as in other occupations, but the necessity is still greater for the careful observance of these principles at a timo when the body, as well as tho mind, is rapidly developing. Neglect at this period is often the cause of children being held back in their studies, branded as dunces and handicapped in many ways, to say nothing of nervous complications in later life.
