"You don't realize what a nervous strain you are putting on a man in the cab," said a Southern Pacific lo comotive engineer the other day to an Ashland automobile driver, "when you dash up 'towards a crossing just ahead of his train. There he is in his cab and he knows that he can't stop his engine. There you are in your automobile speeding toward tno crossing just ahead. You probably greatest coup in the history of the motion picture industry. This distin guished international artist had held herself aloof from scores of flattering offers to appear before the camera until she was approached by a repre sentative of the Lasky organization. In "Carmen" Miss Farrar is seen as the half-wild, fascinating gypsy who is the head of a band of smug glers.

LEASES BED OF LIME DEPOSITE Tract Near Huntington Shows Value , as a Fertilizer. , . f Huntinirton News.) A new industry is being opened up at Eaton, a small station on the Ore gon Short Line, by H. D. Wagner of Portland, who has recently closed a deal whereby he has leased 1120 acres of land on which there is a great bed of salunan. lime that runs from eight to 16 feet deep. This lime is of great value as a fertilizer. It is especially valuable for use on sour or acid land, which the lime sweetens and makes highly produc tive. The Oregon Short line has started that of the 1120 acres he has under lease at Eaton, -there is possibly 400 acres covered with a bed of this lime that runs from eight to 15 feet in depth. The lime thas been thorough ly tested and runs 70 per cent pure. The Oregon Short line has turtetd work on a 800-foot spur, and Mr. Wagner will build a plant that will load one car of 40 ton daily and al so two tramways. He said there is enough lme on the land to work 50 TODAY'S ODDEST STORY. ' -Galesburg, III., Jan. it. Hun- tdreds of Galeaburgers started out-today to pay their bills. 4.

"Don't you know what that Is 7" said the kboja, who also bad never seen a camel, but would not betray bis Igno rance. "That Is a bare a thousand years old." A great man once gave a feast to which, with much condescension, he caused the kboja to be bidden. Ac cordingly on the appointed day the khoja repaired - to the great man's house and found himself In the midst of a fashionable and richly clad com pany, which took no no3ce of the poor Imam in his threadbare black gown. No one greeted blm or spoke to him snd eventually be was shown by a servant to the lowest seat After a little while the kboja slipped away no observed and went Into the hall where some of the mighty ones had left their outer garments. Selecting a mag nificent gown richly lined with fur, he pat It on and returned to the room. Nobody recognized this resplendent personage, whose arrival excited uni versal attention.

Anyhow It Paid the Young Prussian Not to Change It. A king of Prussia who reigned abont the beginning of Inst century was not ed for his geniality, and often in the course of bis walks through tbe streets would enter Into conversation with his subjects. ' One day he met a young man and asked blm what his faith was. - Tbe youth, who was somewhat of a wag. answered, smiling. "1 believe what my tailor believes." The king entered pleasantly.Into tbe Joke and then ask ed again, "And what does your tailor believe In?" "Tour majesty," replied the young man, "he believes that he will never get tbe 30 marks which I owe him, and I believe It also." . The king laughed heartily at the out spoken and unrestrained way In which he bad answered him, and then gav him 30 marks. "Now, then, you ciu pay your tailor and so change bis faith." The young man fancied, how ever, that he could use tbe money for a better purpose, and tbe tailor nat urally went uupaid. ... . . . f?v - Not long afterward tbe king met the same youth, who. as he saw- his maj esty approaching, tried to escape down a side street' Tiie king bad, however, espied blm and called after him. The youth, somewhat crestfallen and abashed, approached his majesty, who at once asked him if be bad paid his tailor. A smile passed over the young man's face as he replied, "Your majes ty, I could not change my. faith foi 80 marks." Roads Are t'assabie. Although some Cove people go to Union and there entrain for La Grande, a few are venturing across with rigs. Jabe Coniey and Lloyd Carter were among Uiose who took the train route this morning. George Corpe was one at tilt fe'.r who drov across in rigs, Mr. Corpe reporting the roads passable but Lodly drifted. Automobiles are out of order, just ppw on cross-valley trips. ; BR'ER RABBIT AS FOOD. ' :"The spell of cold weather has put the finishing touch, as it were, on the rabbit as a food," says the Indian apolis News. ."Even the ji:rt ui sophisticated wjwly-wed prob-jly knows that it takes cold weathe- to put the rabbit in price shape for eating, mere is soiiw prejudice against Br'er Rabbit e an article of food) but there are thousands of oiks that, know the vnbbit for what K is a fine food if prs;ierly prepared for the table. Mony no doubt get their idea of what rabbit, is bv ouying one alter it m: come iy a devious route to market. Truth to tell, there is little to commend the rabbit that has been a week or so on its way to the table after being killed. But where one is lucky enough to have friends in the coun try or qity friends f"ot BO hunting this trip to the table may be rtbxwteiied by several days. The rabbit i.' as clean as any animal used fot fr.cvi It isvts only green stuff, grain, bark, etc. V "The 'gamey' taste that some folk dislike may be eliminated if the rabbit is properly prepared. The flanks should be discarded, 'or They are al ways strong. Aftor being cut up the rabbit should be soaked in strong salt water for six or eight hours. Fried slowly it takes on a delicious brown, and if steamed after being fried it should be as tender an ohicken and as pleasant tasting. And rabbit I gravy! Chicken gravy, the acme of a good cook's culinary eiforts, has 'nothing on' rabbit gravy for the elect. ' . "Another way of prepjjrinfg the rabbit and one .popular among the Germans n hassenpfeffer or sour rab bit The rabbit is fried in the usual way and gravy made, to which is added vinegar, bay leaves, cloves and a slice of lemon. After sim mering in this until it becomes im pregnated with the taste of tho spice any devotee will pronounce it fit for the gods. While a rabbit of the current vintage is best, an old timer 'as big as a mule,' .may be made into a good dish if the proper cook has the job in charge. Rabbits at 25 cents 'each are cheaper than beefsteak, as the average rabbit will weigh perhaps a pound and a half or three-quarters." Guests at the Savoy. trations in this county do not show which were exhibited, hence the neces sity of care on the part of the regis trars in this particular. The following will give you the re quirements, also the status of the families of aliens: - 1. - .Naturalized citizens must ex hibit "Final" Citizenship papers. "Provided however, that all persons heretofore registered in said county as fully naturalized citizens shall not be required to exhibit their citizen ship papers when registering under WHS AQW 2.

Foreign born unmarried women they become of age, or by their father before they become of age; if married I to a foreigner who is naturalized, she must exhibit his "Final" papers. 6. Any foreign .woman - who ac quires citizenship by marriage to an American, retains the same after the termination of martial relations, if she continues to reside here, and un less she make formal renunciation of citizenship. TjService in the U. S. army or navy of aliens does not, as is gener- . ally believed, imply citizenship, unless petition':. for jlnal papers, has been made and papers issued, such service -eliminating only the - necessity of '"First papers." 8. ' Proof of filing on homestead is not .sufficient proof of citizenship. Certified. copies of ('Final Papers" can be had by writing to the clerk of the court where they were issued, if tho originals are lost. . --i. All 'registrations must be sent to the county clerk on the last day .of ... each week and every week. I . REGISTRATION LAWS. (Continued From. Fage On) become 21 years of age; or by their parents before '"ley .became 21 years or age.- . . 9. The state constitutional amend ment passed by the people at the last election requires that all, aliens must have become fully naturalized before being allowed to vote in this state. Therefore, those persons who have only their "Declaration of intention" (commonly known as First Papers) cannot legally register for election in this state. This law ' requires that "Final Citizenship' Papers" (common ly known as Second Papers,) be ex hibited to the registration officer be fore he can register them. 10. Some confusion may- result un less registering officers are careful in this respect, as in manv of the old forms of naturalization papers the first fapers or "Declarations, are very similar to the second or "Final apers, ' therefore should be carefully examined to see that thev read that the alien "is admitted a citizen of the United States." Under the former laws of Oregon, Second Papers were not required; Declaration of Intention or First Papers, being sufficient; former regis- " Boy Scouts .to Cook. ; Cleveland, Jan. 3 More than 500 Cleveland boys will start the Jiew year right by cooking their own meals.
