There are rractiially no new developments In t'te search for the two outlaws. Sldna -uen and Wesley Edwards. County frtiiais ire working carefully, how ever, onj have announced that they nrrrl important results in a few days. Captain Davant yesterday halted and searched a two-ox team driven into town bv Arthur Jones, another friend nf the Aliens. It Is believed Captain Pavant thought he might find one of the outlaws in the body of the wagon. There were only wicker chairs and tinis of chestnuts. The most picturesque arrival of the day was "Big- Ed" Miller from the mountains of North Carolina. He came to volunteer his assistance to the de tectives. To a group of correspondents and detectives he said: "Stranger, I'm from Boone, near the Tennessee line. When I heard about this here outrage I was aworkln' on my fencing. I dropped my tools, went to the store, bought me a coat and hat and set out for here. -This shooting up a rourt Is more, I reckon, than any man will stand for. So I come along on foot to help you-all catch the Aliens. Tou-all show me where they are hiding and I will go into any hole or cave and brine; them out myself.

He had not heard of the tragedy until last Tuesday. News of it so in rmMl him that without stopping to bid his family goodby be set out on his long tramp of 120 miles, reaching here at noon yesterday. He had little money when he left, and friends along the road gave Mm food and shelter. He was much disappointed when told his services could not used. LEAP BEATS DEATH BY CAR Seattle Woman's Jump Off Trestle Saves Uer Life. SEATTLE. Wash.. April . (Spe cial. Miss Wilhelmlna Timmerman to iay Jumped from the Ravenna Park trestle to escape death from a Raven na Park car. She landed In the mud of the Ravenna brook and escaped serious injury. Henry W. Peters, who - was with her also Jumped. He was not hart. Instead nf following the road, they took the track which leaves the high way near East Sixty-third street and runs over a private right of way and on 'a trestle that crosses a brook at Kavrnna Park. There are lights on the bridge, which Is perhaps 150 feet long. There is a sharp curve before the cars take the bridge on the out ward trip. When in the center of the trestle the" young couple saw a headlight of a car round the turn and take the down grade. The bridge Is narrow, having only one track. Their peril for a mo ment was great. Miss Timmerman screamed. Then she Jumped 30 feet Into the brook and Peters quickly fol lowed her. He landed In the soft mud and quickly regained his feet. Miss Timmerman appeared" to be seriously hurt. Peters helped her up and they made their way through the park to Miss Tlmmerman'a home, a few blocks away. Miss Timmerman suffered slight bruises on her back and arms. MASONS OBSERVE EASTER Baker Knight Templars Entertain for Kaslern Oregon and Idaho. BAKER. Or.. April .. (Special.)

The crea tion of a Federal administrative ofllce to supervise Interstate industrial cor porations is urged strongly by Herbert Knox Smith, Commissioner of Corpor ations. In his annual report, made pub lic yesterday. Mr. Smith maintains that it is im possible to enforce effectively any real system of restraint upon business through the courts alone, because of the vast complexity of corporate In terests and the constantly changing business conditions. As a "convincing object lesson on the nJed of such an administrative sys tem." the Commissioner points to the disintegrated Standard Oil and Ameri can Tobacco companies. The purpose of these dissolutions was broad re form in economic conditions. "And yet." Mr. Smith freely asserts. "The country has no effective means of ascertaining how far the desired re form will really be carried out. No one can foresee the future of these new units in the two great industries. It will be purely an economic and finan cial process. No Judicial machinery is adapted to handle this novel problem." The American Woman, a Worker. Christian Herald.

NO cold, dispassionate putting to gether of words on printed page can tell the story of "Rebecca of Sun nybrook Farm" and convey fully any Idea of Its subtle charm. Its atmos phere is of that illusive quality that must be seen fo be Interpreted. The big appeal of Rebecca lies in its whole somenesa. Aa a creature of flesh and blood and In the personage of I'rsula St. George, a young actress who has bestrtr and the charm of naturalness, Rebecca is made even more attractive than In the story-book form in which Kate Doug las Wlggln gave her to the public. Al ways since her creation, old and young have loved this radiant, adorable crea ture, the embodiment of youth and its attendant Joys. Transplanted from be tween the covers of a book to a place behind the footlights the story has lost none ef Its rich character draw ing. Its dramatic incident or refreshing air. In truth. It has gained much In having the breath of life put into Its character. Rebecca'a appeal as a rhafacter study is irresistible and despite Miss St. George's evident youth, her etching of the picture is replete with dramatic values. In the words of Jeremiah Cobh. the old stage-driver and first friend to the little girl when she comes alone to the big brick house where her aunts reside, as this Jeremiah says, not then but later when she's grown up. "Seems terrible queer when there's so many wuthless twins born into the world that Rebecca couldn't a been a pair." Good, old homely folk are Rebecca's friends and guardians, and into the mouth of each Is put a peculiar philos ophy wholly In keeping with the part. There are four acta and five scenes, each a mirroring of the natural. There Is absolutely no coffhected plot to the recital. In the first act Rebecca comes to live with her two old aunts in the "red brick house." to stay un til aha is educated and ran help lift the Inevitable mortgage on the farifi. From the moment of her picturesque entrance, driven in a ramshackly stage coach, until the lost act. when In . her graduation gown she listens to Mr. Aladdin's wooing and bids him "wait a little while." Rebecc la the center of the enactment. In her delightful presentation young Miss St. Oeorge has the assistance of an admirably chosen company. J5am Reed la the stage driver to the eye and the life, and his nice appreciation of the character lends greatly to the performance. Maude Ream Stover, aa Miranda, and Loyela O'Connor, as Jane, the two aunts, were precisely what their roles oiled for. Miranda stubborn and acidulous. Jane gentle and patient. Miss O'Connor is. by the way, a t-ori-l.orf actress, the daughter of the late T. J. O'Connor, and has appeared here prior to this occasion in uen nur and "Way town East." & note of distinctive reality that added immeasurably to the tone of the story was the introauction oi nve i Rebecca'a playmates, their games, in- in.riii ouarrels. and the famous soap-selling venture. Of these roles. that of Emmy Jane i-erains was u mihlv handled by Ruth FinSlay, and Clara Bell Simpson made a flawless presentation by iiaiourno rmicr. Al fred Hudson. Jr. plays capably the role of Rebeccas Mr. Aladdin. The settings are especially beautiful.

WHOEVER heard of a lovely young leading woman making herself into a middle-aged, plainly-dressed study like Mrs. Wiggs of the historic cabbage patch? Well, that's Just what the new lead ing woman at the Baker is doing this week. But she probably knew what a splendid chance the characterization would afford her in earning the love and appreciation of Baker patrons. They are pretty loyal that crowd of stock followers and at yesterday's matinee turned out in a drove, packing the house to Its furthest back seats. Maude Leone is Mrs. Wiggs. Under a gray wig she hides her own luxuriant locks, lines her pretty face Into old age. and wears homely print gowns. She plays the role with sincerity. Not once does she get out of the type. Fanchlon Everhart, a new member, is splendid In the role of Mis' Hazy, and is another instance of what lengths an ac tual and earnest desire to be Individual with the role portrayed will drive a pretty actress. Miss Everhart looks and acts and Is Mis' Hazy to the letter, and her portrayal could In no sense be Improved upon. J. Frank Burke, wisard of character actors, is Hiram Mtubbins, and is Alice Hegan Rice's printed type come to life. His make-up for the role is natural, his assumption of the shiftless Mr. Stub bins' mental state seems most real, and and the outward and physical enact ment Is a gem. Marie Baker is Mrs. Schult In very truth, from her fat waddle to her gut tural "aln'tlt-don't Its," while Hilda Graham plays with great comedy effect her partner In trouble-making, Mrs. Elchorn. Wlllard Mack, leading man. has the role of Bob ReaMIng, and Ruth Lecher Is Lucy, his sweetheart, both being mi nor parts and naturally too light to af ford much opportunity for hlatrlonic display. Richard Vivian plays Billy Wiggs with excellent detail and Walter Gil bert affords big, bright spots as Mis' Hasy's nephew Chris. To Margaret Marriott goes credit for a likable pic ture of Lovey Mary, with "Baby" Price, a dear little mite who acted with appar ent relish as Tommy, the child from the orphanage. Earl lwire, as Henry Hunkerdunkus Jones, of the bureau of heart-Joining. Ronald Bradbury, as the sheriff, Neil McKlnnon as Mickey, a "tough guy," Billy IMUs as the fat Mr. Schultx. Rob ert Knox as the thin Mr. Elchorn, D. C Seldon as Deacon Bagby. and George Ralston as Eddie, completed the minor support. That excellent actor. - Harrison J. Terry, played the role' of the erring Mr. Wlifgs with great felicity, and made quite likable a character with which the audience holds little sympathy out of Its love for the mistreated Mrs. Wiggs. The three little daughters of the house of Wiggs were excellently acted by Nlta yulnn as Asia. Mayo Jlethot as Eurnpena and Lnraino Price as Australia. Mrs. Wlgps will stay at the Baker all week, with the usual matinees on Wednesday and Saturday, CUTICURA Soap and Ointment Do so much for pimples, blackheads, red, rough hands, and dry, thin and falling hair, and cost so little that it is almost criminal not to use them.

She looked 50 per cent fatter and weighed 20 pounds more. He was more than puzzled. His list con tained no sweets of any kind, nor any fat producers; yet It was putting on flesh at an enormous rate. "You are sure that you ate the things on this list?" the doctor questioned se verely. "Yes, doctor," was the firm answer. "What else did you eat?" as a sud den inspiration seized him. "Why, nothing but my regular meals," was the Indignant answer. GOOD STYLE IN WRITING A Track Along Which Author Con ducts the Reader. L. La. Masson in Lippincott's. The process of writing consists in laying a track of words, along which the author conducts the reader with more or less auccess. If the words are put together neatly and skillfully, the reader glides along without joit or jar and if the elevations and depressions are arranged with care, so that monot ony may be avoided, the pleasure of the trip is still further increased. Many writers revel in "apt allitera tion's artful aid" end take an unfair advantage of the reader by ceaseless syllabication promiscuously ana perni ciously pandering, with reckless rodo montade, to surfeited senses. Others adopt a rugged, uneven. Jolt ing method, placing their words in hard, jagged, staccato rows, hurling their meaning at you in irritating cres cendos, bumping you up and down, making hard edges which Jar your ear and rasp your consciousness discordant ly, rubbing you crosswise. They clang at you. And other still, with stately pomp, firmly wedded to well-balanced periods, march with rh;-thmlc step along their formal path. No frivolity deters them, no Joyous and Inconsequential lightness disturbs them, no folly mars their post ure, but with dignified carriage, their banners flying In the sun. they Journey onward, the distant horizon reverber ating to their triumphal progress. Then we have the mincing, delicately constructive writer, who deals in mo saics. A feminine little air of precision is bis pervading essence. Capering nim bly to the dulcet phrase, he never de scends below his shrill treble, but scat ters his nice little refinements about him like a lace-adorned bride.' In the meantime, the unhappy reader asks for nothing better than not to know that the writer has a style. This does not mean that the style is unimportant: it means only that the reader is primarily Interested In what the writer has to show him, and the writer's style may be considered per fect when it never obtrudes itself on the reader's attention. It is on the same principle that the best-dressed man is the man whose clothes you never notice. Don't Force Children. Christian Herald. Anv bright child may be subjected to a forcing process In a single direction with results that are spectacular. The question Is whether the game is worth the candle. To prepare a lad for col lege and have him triumphantly pass his preliminary and nnai exammanuna hv the. time he is 14 years old may be done successfully even in this day of advanced university standards. The boy may be permitted to enter while he is wearing short trousers, may surpass young men some years ahead of him, and be graduated with distinction when other boys are entering the freshman class. The little girl of 9 or 10 or the young girl of 1 or 17 may wear laurels on her golden head and reap the early sheaves of fame before she wears her fiT-t trained dress. Where will be the ultimate gain? Life, Indeed, Is longer thah it once was, and there are those who keep the fire undlmmed until its utmoBt verge. The fire that is kindled too soon will burn itself out before the meridian. Brain 'development reaching its climax In the earlier years of life means mediocrity in miacne age ana premature senility.

Y. ...... r L . h A A 11 I'll i uivno iiuuugu ii'o ! . The wireless operator was the hero ' of the fire. Time after time he sent I I out calls for aid. and on one occa- B1UI1 lie icmftinjivi . to abandon his post on account of tne heat, but he returned soon after. The vessel was of the Merchants & Miners Transportation Company, run ning from Baltimore to Boston. It was beached near the lifesaving station at Montauk Point. The first message was picked up at the Point Judith wireless station at 2 o'clock. A few minutes later a second message was received, stating that the operator on the steamer would be obliged to leave his room because of the heat. Efforts were being made, it .was said, to reach Montauk Point to beach the steamer. Meanwhile the Ontario, under its own steam, reached Montauk and was beached about a mile and a half west of the life saving station there. Life savers went out with a breeches buoy, and helped take off passengers and members of the crew. A strong surf was running. The passengers were landed on the beach after a battle with the surf. None was hurt, although most of them were drenched, according to a wireless message. Soon after the passengers quit the vessel the flames reached a point barely 15 feet away from the wireless room and It was doubtful if it would be possible to continue the sending of messages many minutes.

Is There. Room for Mother? Christian Herald. When John persuades his mother that she would better give up house keeping and live with him, when Mary coaxlngly and lovingly impresses upon mother the notion that she must come and stay with her, that she Is needed and wanted, and that life without her lacks flavor, when, in short, mother is induced to depart from her bailiwicli and try living elsewhere, she is by no means sure that she may not make a mistake. The daughter's home or that of the daughter-in-law may be shining; as the houses in Spotless Town; the daughter's children may be well trained, and the daughter's housekeep ing perfect, but mother is almost sure to find herself in a way overlooked, or laid on the shelf. Sometimes she misses the half hours of confidential talk that were formerly hers, and again the goodnlgrht kiss is forgotten, and a whole day may pass in which there is no room or share that mother can have in what is going on. This is especially true when the young people occupy the front of the stage. Air you sure, dear, reader, if mother is with you, that there is room for her in your heart and your home, as there ought to be?
