TO FIX UPCEMETERY
Talent Odd Fellows Celebrate Anni
versary by Improving Recent
Purchase.
The Talent Odd Fellows, who re
cently purchased a tract for a ceme
tery adjoining the village cemetery,
decided to observe the anniversary of
the order Saturday by fixing up the
new acquisition rather than by at
tending -the county celebration at
Gold Hill. About 25 of the members
gathered early Saturday aatf, arrayed
in their working togs, proceeded to
the cemetery armed with the work
ing tools of their vocation and pro
ceeded to install a fine lawn fence
across the front and a substantial
fence around the other three sides.
Two handsome wagon gates were
placed, one at each end of the front,
with a small gate in the center.
Others went to work clearing the
grounds and leveling them.
At noon the Rebekahs appeared on
the scene laden with baskets and a
picnic dinner was served to the labor
ers. A very pleasant day was spent
and much good wat done.

is
New York, April 23. 'If a con
gressional investigation committee Is
appointed to look into the affairs of
organization baseball," declared W.
H. Locke, the new president of the
Philadelphia National League, "the
interesting fact will be made public
that 50 per cent of the major league
clubs and 75 per cent of the .minor
leagues lost money last season. This
was due to the high salaries paid to
the players and the heavy traveling
expenses, coupled with the big
money spent in rebuilding ball
parks.
"The- major leagues have con
tracted to pay nearly $1,000,000 in
(salaries this season. Under the pro
visions of the national agreements
the players must receive every dol
lar, no matter how much the clubs
may lose. Each club stands on its
own bottom. There is no syndicate
ownership and neither tho National
nor American League is inccrporated.
As for the so-called reserve rule,
professional baseball would become
chaotic without it.
"It prevents the clubs in the larg
er cities from enticing away valu
able playera from the smaller and
eaker clubs. If the club3 should
outbid one another for stars every
year it would not be long before
New York and Chicago would con-
trol the best men in the market. I j on Secretary of State Bryan's "grape
will venture to say that more thanjjuice dinIier t0 the representatives
90 per cent of the major league play
ers of today are well satisfied with
existing conditions and would oppose
any attempt to wreck the foundations
of organized baseball. I hope that
congress will turn on the searchlight
to show that the cry against organ
ized baseball is unwarranted."

Shy at Dinner Where Wine is Miss
ing. London, April 25. Sarcastic com
ment on Secretary of State Bryan's
now famous "grape-juice" dinner to
British Ambassador James Bryce and
other foreign diplomats in Washing
ton was voiced in today'e London
newspapers.
"Official life in Washington under
the Wilson-Bryan regime," says the
Pall Mall Gazette, "holds little pros
pect for gaiety. We fear the capital
of the great republic is destined to
be known as "wishy Washington.' "
Commenting seriously ou the din
ner, the London Express says that
Bryan, as secretary of state, has no
right to enforce his abstemious ideas
on his guests. The Express main
tains that the diplomats had no
choice but to attend the dinner, be
cause the secretary's invitation
would have Involved them in a sus
picion of international discourtesy.
Washington, April 25. Discussing
the comment in London newsnaDers
of foreign countries here, Mrs. Belva
Lockwood, the famous equal suffrag
ist, said today:
"Grape-juice gaiety is safe and
sane. It doesn't leave a 'head' the
next morning. Washington is gay
under President Wilson. We should
worry about London's criticism of
grape-juice diplomacy. It is much
more preferable to dollar diplomacy.
"President Wilson and Secretary
Bryan are to be congratulated on
their grape-juice doctrine. Men having-
the responsibilities of running a
great government should retire early
and rise early and attend to their
duties with clear heads."
Congressman Bartholdt of Mis
souri today took a hand in the grape
juice controversy.
"I deeply regret," he said, "that
the question whether a .-nan shall
drink wine at dinner has become a
state ' matter. It is a question all
gentlemen should decide for them
selves. Why, it is hospitality with a
string tied to it that's the American
way. Secretary Bryan is forcing his
own personal views when he is enter
taining as secretary of state.
"That is improper. No host should
force his own private opinions on his
guests. The diplomats he enter
tained could not criticise him, but I
will bet they had peculiar thoughts.
They come from a station In life
where gentlemen drink wine with
dinner."
It Is Btated here that Secretary
Bryan's attitude will not affect Pres
ident Wilson, who considers the
wishes of his guests are paramount.
He intends to serve the usual wines,
and his guests may take them or not
as they please.
Strange uses are being found for
some of the queues lately cut off in
vast numbers by the Chinese. A
British woolen manufacturer recent
ly received an offer of five tons of
such hair for weaving into woolen
fabrics.

DIGNITY IS AT STAKE
California's Pride is Involved
Anti-Alien legislation, is the
Iast Statement.
in
Sacramento, April 2 4. Not the
dignity of Japan, but the dignity of
California, is at stake in the tontro
versy over the anti-alien land law,
according to Governor Johnson, and
if the plans of the majority party
here give offense to the Tokio gov
ernment, the California executive ab
solves the state from blame on the
ground of federal statutes, which
long since drew the line which the
state now seeks fo apply.
In a statement issued today Gov
ernor Johnson denied the position of
the legislative majority in the mat
ter, trusting' that Secretary Bryan
might learn thereby the attitude of
California toward the law burring
from land ownership in this state
aliens who are barred from citizen-
i ship in the nation.
That this restriction applies to the
subjects of Japan or any other na
tion is not the fault of California,
according to the view of the gover
nor. Such a law will be that which
will be presented to Secretary Bryan
when he arrives here. The law will
apply solely to members of the for
eign races that are described under
the federal law as ineligible to citi
zenship. Democratic members of both houses
have conceived the idea of calling a
conference of the governors of Ore
gon, Washington, Nevada and Ari
zona to meet Secretary Bryan and
Governor Johnson next week with
the view of bringing about concerted
action on the alien land question and
In resolutions to be Introduced- in
both houses tomorrow dirseting the j
Invitation to be telegraphed to the
executives of these states.
There is little sympathy lor this
plan among the majority who, hav
ing asserted the right of the state
to act, now declare such a conference
will only serve to cloud the issue.
They expect to kill the resolution
when it comes to a vote.
Washington, April 2 4. Secretary
Bryan left Washington this evening
for Sacramento, where Monday he
will begin consultation with Gover
nor Johnson and members of the Cal
ifornia legislature in an effort to
frame anti-alien land laws that will
not conflict with 'reaty obligations
of the United States with Japan.
Sacramento, Cal., April f4. Anti
alien land legislation is it a stand
still in the California legislature to
day and will remain so until the ar
rival of Secretary of State Bryan
here late next Monday.
Although amendments to Senator
Birdsall's anti-alien land bill are be
ing prepared and discussed in cau
cus, no action will be taken on the
floor of the senate on either the sen
ate or assembly bills until Bryan's
arrival, according to floor leaders.
SICKLES CASE DROPPED.
New York Not Likely to Press Claim
for Missing FiiikIh.
Albany, N. Y. , April 24. New
York state probably will take no fur
ther action to recover $23,000 unac
counted for by General Daniel E.
Sickles as chairman of the New York
Monument Commission. Attorney
General Carmody said tonight that
General Sickles had failed to meet
the judgment obtained by the state
for the recovery of the money.
"Although numerous offers were
made to aid General Sickles at the
time the state began an action
against him for the recovery of the
$23,000," said Attorney-General Car
mody, "not a dollar has yet been
turned over to the state authorities
for this purpose. If we are satisfied
that General Sickles has no assets
and that we cannot recover this
money, we will not press the body
execution the state obtained to sat
isfy the Judgment,"

DEER SWIMS INTO CITY
Animal Puis Into Lumber Yawl
Spokane After Long Kwiin
Down Rapid River.
in
Spokane, Wash., April 2C. Tak
ing advantage of the' high water in
the Spokane river, which greatly fa
cilitated progress clown stream, a full
grown "mule" deer gaily put into
port In the yards of a lumber com-!
pany at the edge of the Spokane bus- I
Iness district. j
After shaking his downy tail the
animal proceeded to cast about for
a breakfast appropriate to the con-!
elusion of so perilous and difficult a j
journey. Whether it was instinct, or
the fact that his keen hearing warned ;
him of danger ahead, something im-
pelled the deer to leave the stream j
at the lumber mill. Had he kept on i
4 00 yards down stream he would
have been dashed to death on thei
rocks below the biggest cataract in
the west. '
Workmen at the mill discovered
the unusual visitor, and, after a
chase among the lumber piies, final
ly ran him into a blind alley and
caught him.
The animal was presented to the
park board and has joined the zoo
lodge at Manito park. Ho has been
given the name of John P. Reardon,
in honor of the man who affected the
capture, and who is undoubtedly the
first human being to get within
speaking distance of the deer.
The deer is of the "mulo" variety
and is different from any of those
now in the Manito park zoo. It Is
a cross between the black and white
tails, and has unusually long ears,
which fact has given rise to the name
by which the species, a native va
riety, is known.
The animal has a deep cut on the
neck, caused probably by contact
with a rock In one of the rapids
above the city, but the wound is not
at all serious.
How far the deer traveled in the
icy river is a matter of conjecture,
but it is believed his trip began in
the neighborhood of Coeur d'Alene
lake, 30 miles from Spokane.
