Twenty-piece orchestra at the picture show tonight. Usual prices. Got Him But Didn't Keep Him Sheriff Klkins of Crook County was over last week looking for a man wanted for taking a team and wagon, as well as other prop erty that he thought might be handy. He went on over into Malheur Countv, accompanied by Duke Young of this place and found his man at Westfall, se cured the stolen property and cume back here where he allowed the man to get away. The Crook county officers do not seem very successful in keeping their pris oners, at least those caught over in this section, as they had a simi lar experience not long ago, al lowing their man to escape even a second time after getting hold of him. Features At Tonawama. An interesting feature of the picture show tonight at Tona wama will be the orchestra work of Mrs. Dodge's entire violin class. These little tots will furnish music between reels to night and also play for a period before the show begins, the con cert to begin at 7:16. Come early and enjoy the music. There will be over 20 in this orchestra, induing the piano and a cornet Three splendid new picture reels will be on the program to night, one a Western play by popular actors, another a comedy. All good. Usual prices will be charged. Tomorrow night the three-reel feature, "The Two Orphans," will be presented with an addi tional reel of Comedy Drama at the usual Sunday night Charges, This feature is one of the best ever seen in the house and worth more than the price, charged, but was sent by error and the man agement will show it at the re gular prices for the evening. Both these programs are ex ceptionally good and the manage ment is pleased to be able to present two in succession that are sure to be most pleasing to put rons. Bring the children to night to hear the big orchestra and come early. His Services Appreciated. Early this week The Times Herald received a letter from Senator Chamberlain enclosing n letter from the Post Office I -partment giving details of the trouble of getting a temiiorary service for mail between this place and Canyon. A It tier from this office had reached the Senator giving him an uccuuntof the service and this was used by him to get relief from the De partment. Since that time we have been receiving our mail regularly and the people of this section certainly appreciate the efforts of Senator Chamberlain in our behalf. Passed to the Beyond. A telephone message was re ceived here last Sundny morning announcing the death of Mrs. Anna W. Sayer, which occurred at Portland the afternoon before. She had been suffering from heart disease for years and her death was due to this trouble. Mrs. Sayer and little daughter Dorothy went to Portland last June and she improved in health quite materially and later they returned home but the altitude soon had a bad effect on her and she returned to Portland in the fall accompanied by both her daughters Dorothy and Miss Agnes. For a time the change seemed beneficial but she again had serious trouble and last month her husband joined them. He was with her until her death. They arrived home by way of Bend Thursday evening, the body having been embalmed and the funeral will take place this afternoon from the Masonic lodge room, deceased being a member of the local Chapter of the East em Star which organization will conduct the service. Mrs. Sayer was 45 years old and had resided in this place since 1884. She was formerly Anna Powers and immediately after her marriage at Canyon City she removed to Burns. Her husband and four children survive her, John W. Jr., Miss Agnes, Helen and Dorothy. She is also survived by one brother, Dan Powers w h o resides at Canyon City, her mother and one sister, Mrs. Fountain, were with her in Port land when the end came. Another sister, Mrs. J. J. Tupker, resides in this place. Mrs. Sayer was a highly re spected pioneer lady who had a wide acquaintanceship and en joyed the friendship of many. The beieaved relatives have the sympathy of this community. Baptist Church. Sunday School 10 a. m. Ser vices of worship and preaching 11 a. m. and 8 p. m. Young People's meeting 7 p. in.

Card of Thanks: I wish to thank the people of Burns for their many acts of kindness and expressions of sympathy tendered me during the trying time through which I have juBt passed. Mrs. Sutton's mother and sisters desire that I extend to you their deepest ap preciation for the floral offerings that spoke so much for your admiration for the departed, and your respect for the living. W. M. Sutton. Borne, Ore. Miss Blanch Wilson, who hus a homestead in the Powell Butte country, has a rooster that sets on eggs and hatcher chickens. Last year she raised a brood of chicks from him and two days ago she set him again. The rooster apparently likes his job as a mother. This is very rare in poultry raising, but by no means an impossibility. Besides being a first-class mother he takes excellent care of the chicks, and weans them at the proper time like a hen. -Prineville Review.

Banking of Women Nothing more thoroughly contradicts the fast vanishing idea that women have no heads for business than the books of the leading banks. The Harney County National could be called the Women's Bank of Central Ore. Hundreds of women deposit their money here, have savings accounts or pay their bills by check, the safest way.
