Proof . that Foraker leaders in the fight on Secre tary Taft's presidential indorsement will seek court aid In balking a state pimary to select state convention delegates, came tonight in the announcement from Napoleon, a Foraker stronghold, that an Injunction against the primaries would be asked Monday. The papers allege primaries will be illegal and can not be paid for. The Foraker contend tion Is that the primary law makes the committee sole authority for maintain ing the method by which ballots shaH be cast. They assert county election boards . need . not obey the state com mittee. 'Columbus, Ohio, Jan. 4.

POOR ROB LIVING TO BURY DEAD CharityJVorker Says Fyner- al Ostentation Frequent ly Causes Hardships. ' Wllkesbarre, Pa,, Jan. 4. Poor people spend too much for funerals. Is the conclusion of Matron Bertels, of the United Charities, of this city, who for several years has passed upon the many applications for aid which , are made to the organization. Many of these, she says, come from widows' and ornhans. soon after the man of the family has been burled. Fre auentl thev are widows of minework ers, who receive $100 to $200 from some miners' insurance. Mrs. Bertels de clares that. In a great majority of cases,' not only all this is spent for the funeral expenses, but frequently the family, with no resources In sight, have gone heavily in debt in order to have an imposing funeral. They select hand some caskets and engage a long string of carriages. Whether they believe such a funeral Is a tribute to the de ceased; or whether they merely want to' have tha credit of having a fine funeral, Mrs. Bertels does not under take to say. She does say, however, that they might much better spend the money on. the living than , on the dead. , GERMANS JEALOUS OF FREfJCH CHAMPAGNE Popularity1 of Dry product in United States Cause of , Loud Gfrumbling.

It' Is well known that : On of the many differences of opinion of tha kai ser and the last Prince, Bismarck was in regard to the qualities 'of German champagne.

Efforts are bein:j- made to appease the. local lodge of the Order of Owls, an eastern organization, which has been holding meetings whenever the Broth erhood has called a session and has given the public impression that they were the only official organization. At tempts will be made by the Brotherhood to bring the Order of Owls Into the fold of membership of the Brotherhool as a result of the forthcoming national gathering. The two organizations have been car rying on a desultory war for the oast year or more in the northwest and both organizations have come to the conclu sion that there is not enough interest to warrant a further continuance of the Internecine strife.

FIRE AT THEATRE CAME AT RIGHT Tit Chimney Blaze at Grand Discovered. at Close of the Matinee. Had the chimney fire -which started in the Grand theatre building at 4 o'clock yesterday afternoon occurred five minutes earlier it would have been almost impossible to have averted a se rious If not fatal panic among the au dience which filled the house at the matinee performance. As It was the last act had just been finished and people were already leav ing their seats when the chimney fire was discovered and an alarm turned In. By the time the department got there and it became generally known that there was a fire in the building the last woman had left the house and no trouble was experienced In putting out the incipient blaze around the chim ney. - ' J Manager Erlckson was sitting inrhls office in the second floor of the frame theatre building when he v was notified of the fire. He dropped his receiver horrified and dashed down stairs only to see that the audience, which was composed of women and children as Is usual on Saturday matinees, was filing out and was ignorant of any danger. .The loss was nothing and the fire was put out without any difficulty.
