to the White House today for the
purpose of getting what he de
scribed as a "frank and manly" an
nouncement from President Wilson
as to whethefc the executive would
sign the bill extending for six
months the provision of the law
requiring $100 worth of work on
mining claims before midnight
December 31.

ecutive offices where he was told
that the president had the bill. He
then went to the White House and
said he was told there that the
bill was at the executive offices.
Returning to the executive of
fices the senator took a seat with
the announced purpose of remain
ing until he got some sort of a
statement as to what the president
prop osedotdowitehth u
proposed to do with the bill.
Senator Ashurst and many other
senators from western states have
been flooded with telegrams of in

like blackbirds on a fence" waiting
to jump the claims at midnight
Friday night If the new bill was
vetoed by the president.
Senator Ashurst said if the presi

ute, holders of mining claims
would lose their property, as the
law requires that the assessment
work be done before midnight
December 31. If it is not done
Ithen "claim jumpers" could take
possession, he said.

Salvation Army To
Provide Presents For
Forgotten Tots Here
Measuring Device for
Planets Reveals Star
300 Times Sun 's Size
Chicago, Dec. 29. Results of the
first successful experiments on an
astronomical device at the Mount
WilBon, Cal., observatory revealing
that certain remote stars in the
firmament are many thousand
times larger in size than astrono
mers had ever surmised, was dis
cussed today by Professor A. A-
Miohelson, noted scientist of the
Unlvcrstly of Chicago, who per
fected the device, beiere ;ie Amer
ican Physical society, meeting here
in connection with the American
Association for the Advancement of
Science.
Under the direction of Professor
Michelson, astronomical experts
have Just computed the diameter
of Alpha Orionls, one of the stars
in the constellation of Orion.
The orb is found to be 300,000,-
000 miles in diameter, approxi
mately 300 times the sun's diame
ter. Its volume is 27,000,000 times
as great as the sun. The sun being
almost a million times as large as
seems most insignificant in com
parison ith Alpha Orlonis."
Professor Michelson was award
ed the Nobel prize in physics thir
teen year ago. His device used in
circulating the diameter of Alpha
Orlonis is briefly described as fol
lows; The mirror of an eight foot re
flecting telescope is obscured by
an opaque cap with two silts ad
justable in width and distance
aoart. When the Instrument is
focused on a star, instead of an
image of a star there appears a
series of interference bands ar
ranged at equal distances apart and
parallel to the two slits. When the
slits are properly adjusted a dis
tance is finally attained between
them at which the fringes disap
pear. Th angle of the subtended star is
obtained by a simple formula and
when the angle and the distance
of the star from the earth aro
known the diameter of the star san
large as the earth, this planet easily be determined.
Perhaps no event in the entire
year -is so looked forward to by
the children of the poor in the city
as the annual Christmas tree given
by the Salvation Army. Not con
tent with supplying Christmas
dinners to many homes in which
there would otherwise be no such
festivity, the Army of charily,
thinking 01 the countless little
ones whose faith in the world
must not be shaken so early in
life, collects its meagre resources
and invests in the toys and sweet
things so essential to a child s
happiness.
Tonight at the armory when tne
huge tree is lit, there will be ap
proximately 400 children there to
receive the gifts that the kindly
soldiers of the Army have obtained
for them. No little one in the en
tire city need be without a real
Christmas, for generous prepara
tions have been made that will In
clude all who care to be present.
An invitation has been issued by
ensign Roe to the public to attend
and witness the program and
presentation of gifts.

suit filed In Polk county court
against a real estate broker and his
bondsmen for misrepresentation or
sale of land fraudulently was filed
by Edward Dicwart against Rich

company.
Mr. Die wart alleges that In the
month of May. he made his inten
tions known to Mr. Kelman that he
wanted to buy a piece of land. Mr.
Kelman sold him a piece of land
containing (0 acres stating that the
land had produced in the year 1919
$2700 worth of prunes, was en
closed with a new wire fence and
that the prune trees were 4 or 6
years of age and that the land was
worth 000.
The plaintiff states that he Is a
stranger In the county and thai he
relied upon the statement of the
defendan, Mr. Relmann. but he has
since learned that the statements
were false. That the farm did riot
produce more than f 500 36 worth
of prune in 1919 and that the land
was only partially enclosed with a
new wire fence, and that the re
mainder of it was enclosed with an
old rail or board fence, that pan
of the prune trees were 11 years ot
ge but of small growth and that
they were not young trees ae so
stated, and that the land was only
of the value of tSOOO.
Mr. Dlewsrt entered into the con
tract for the purchase of the land
and paid on the contract the iiim
of $1009 and when he discovered
that the repre ntatlons were raise
he surrendered his contract or pur
chase and It was rescinded by an
agreement with the or.f of the
land. He therefore asK aamagt-s

$1000 and costs and disbursements
