- Tuesday, August 7, 1923 iTOE.ilEPPNER, HERALD. HEPPNER, OREGON A. B. Adams New pioneer in tne state, was three times elected governor and was one of Colo rado's most distinguished citizens." Mr. Adams is a sou of the late Alva Adams and was born In Del Norte In 1875. He was graduated from Yale in 1806. He then entered Columbia law school and was graduated there In 1SD9, immediately returning to Pueblo to begin the practice of law. Baldwin, Britain's New Prime Minister There is a new government In Great Britain and Andrew Konar Law has been succeeded as prime minister by Stanley Baldwin. It is a surprising development, which Indicates, among other things, Mr. Baldwin's personal popularity, as the cheerful, good humored and straightforward business man who negotiated at Washington the funding of the British debt to America. Three facts stand out In the selec tion : The capture of the premiership by a business man. Another blow to the prestige of the house of lords In the rejection of Earl Curston. The growing power of labor as shown by the part It played In the decision. In steel, shipping, banking and railroads1 Baldwin has had lifelong experience. He Is brisk, alert, up-to-date. During the war, when he could not himself fight, he surrendered one fourth of his large fortune to the state. While his father, Alfred Baldwin, was In steel, the women of the family r.ave been im:,,,) a,m iirusiic. in po litical and literary annals there have been many famous sisterhoods, hut few have been more interesting than the four daughters of Rev. George B. Mhc donald, Wesleyan Methodist minister, of whom Georgiana married Sir Kd wnrd Burne-Jones and appeared as the type of saintly loveliness In his pic tures; Agnes married Sir Edward Poynter, president of the Royal academy; Alice married an Indian official called Rudyard Kipling, and Louisa married Alfred Baldwin and still lives as the prime minister's mother. Tennessee Settlers in Early Illinois PRINGFIELD. ILL. The early history of Illinois Is always a topic of Interest because of lo cation and the fact that the northern part was settled from the East and "Egypt" from the South. Much of the progress of early Illinois may be traced to the Influence of im migrants from Tennessee, who came to this state to the number of 30,000 in the early migration period, accord ing to a paper prepared for the Illinois State Historical society by Rev. Ed ward B. Landis of Homewood, 111. "There were three migrations from Tennessee into Illinois, extending through the first half of the Nine teenth century," says Mr. Landis. "The first was from about 1S)0 to 1S25. This migration was animated largely by the commercial idea of cheap land, a fer tile country, an opportunity for a home. "The movement was not because of the slavery question, except In a minor way, for slaves were held by some In Illinois from 1725 to 1824 or 1825 a period of 100 years. It Is to the credit of the people, however, that In 1S24, when their first vote upon the subject was taken, the soil of this great state whs to be known as free soIL "Following Immediately a second mi gration from Tennessee began, which was animated by a desire to be out of Saxophone Wins College Boy a Bride CHICAGO. When Alfred J. Kvale, twenty-two years old, eloped to Crown Point and married Miss Ethel Virginia "Billee" Stanfield, his action bridged the gap between church and the stage, surprised a congressman who Is great ly interested In prohibition and linked two families of prominence In Mary land and Minnesota. Young Mr. Kvale is a musician In the orchestra at the Rendeivous cafe, where he has been playlnj a particu larly "wicked" saxophone. His father Is Rev. O. J. Kvale of Benson, Minn., who beat Congressman Volstead last year, because he wai "dryar than Vol stead." The bride, Zlegfeld "Follies" beauty, until recently was a member of the "Sally" chorus. Her father Is a wealthy contractor living In Plkesville, a suburb of Baltimore. She Is blonde and golden-haired, while her husband Is tall and dark. The couple met only a month ago. Thereafter the bride was much at the cafe, listening while young Mr. Kvale sobbed and moaned of lve on his saxophone. Publication of the marriage license Colorado Senator Alva B. Adams of Pueblo lias been appointed United States senator from Colorado to succeed the late Samuel D. Nicholson, Kepubllcan. Gov. William K. Sweet, In announcing the appoint ment, said, among other things : "Having been elected governor upon a progressive platform, I have appointed Sir. Adams because of his progressive Ideas concerning Industrial and social questions. The progressives and conservatives in the United States senate are so nearly tied that the ap pointment from Colorado has attracted the attention of the entire country. The man whom I have appointed will cast his vote with the progressives and will actively co-operate with this group. "In appointing Mr. Adams as Unit ed States senator, I have honored a native son of Colorado. While he has won distinction in the practice of his profession, he has also honored a noble ancestry. His father was a slnve territory. A great many Ton nessoeans were opposed to slavery anil wanted their children brought up on free-soil territory. Great honor is due these sturdy pioneers, who hewed out a path through the trackless forest and across broad prairies, crossed streams on crudely constructed rafts, undergoing all manner of privations and hardships for the sake of an Ideal. "The third migration was after the close of the Civil war. Times were hard in Tennessee at that time, and families, for their own sake, and for the sake of the young people, moved to Illinois, and other Western states. The influence of these Tennesseeans has been very variously estimated. "Shortly after the first great num bers arrived and settlements sprang up over different sections, new coun ties were formed and in the leadership of these counties many officers wre chosen from the Tennesspeniis. In the first constitutional convention there were a number of these men, so It early became evident that many of them filled positions of honor and trust In offices throughout the state. "There Is one other phase usually overlooked by historians. The wives of some of these prominent men were women of distinguished families, bring ing to their new homes a culture, poise and charm of an 'elect lady.' " let the cat out of the bag. When Mrs. Kvale was informed of it at her home, she professed great astonishment. " 'Pish tush,' " she said, "it can't be true." At midnight Mr. Kvale, at a Chicago hotel, was advised of the license. He had come to attend a political confer ence on the valuation of the railroads. "Now, now!" said Mr. Kvale. "This Is much too premature. Tomorrow, perhaps or some other day. I can't say a word tonight." Strenuous questioning elicited the Information that he had already been aware of the elopement. "My new daughter-in-law Is a very fine girl," he added, "a wonderful girl, and we are thoroughly satisfied with what has taken place, although I will admit It was a-a-a-a bit sudden." Young Mr. Kvale admitted he had disappointed his parents somewhat by quitting the University of Minnesota to go forth with his saxophone. "Perhaps I should have told father and mother about Billee," he said. "Oh, well. It's all O. K. now mother's congratulated us and father's perfect ly satisfied." g By MARGUERITE BUFFUM S by McClure Newspaper Syndicate.) A NNE Trevor was tired. She had scrubbed and cleaned her little house until it shone with a new splen dor. Two freshly baked apple pies were on the pantry shelf, and beside them was Bob's favorite spice cake with its thick white frosting. Upstairs tin? rooms we're spotless and inviting with their crisp, white curtains and beautiful linen. Anne loved the cleanness of her house, yet she resented being tired. "Hob is so peevish lately, too," she whispered to herself. She ghim-eil at the clock, and, not ing that it was nearly time for him to be home, moved slowly to the stove and started t::l:ing the dinner up. She carried the baked 1mm that she had prepared so carefully to the dining room and placed it before his place. "I'll bet he won't even say it's nice," she said, tiien paused to stare blankly at Bob as he stood in the doorway. "Am I as bad as that, Anne?" Anne, overtired and nervous, sud denly burst Into tears. "If you wouldn't slave so, Anne, and go out more " "You don't understand, Bob. You always said you liked a well-ordered house, and when I have It orderly you find fault." Finally came the day when Bob hnd brutally told her she was losing her good looks. After he left, Anne hur ried to the mirror. The reflection there assured her that she was still pretty. But It was true that her face was losing it bloom. It hurt so much to have Bob say a thing like that. Anne thought of the time when he used to say, "My pretty little wife," as he held her close. She wondered, vaguely, if he would ever say it again. What had made him change so? The work of the house had to be done. Anne's troubled gaze turned to the street and the fast-moving stream of automobiles. The flash of nn orange scarf caught her attention. The wear er was June Evans, and she was earn estly talking to the man beside her. Suddenly he turned and looked to ward the house. It was Bob I Ordi narily Anne might have been curious, but not Jealous. But somehow, to her tortured mind, June's gay scarf seemed to wave defiance at her ; and her vivid coloring, untouched, Anne knew, by any makeup, recalled Bob's stinging remark of the morning. There suddenly came to her the de sire to tell somebody her troubles, somebody who might help her straight en out the tangled threads. She thought of Mary Brene. Mary was six years Anne's senior and had nl wnys been a close friend. It was to Mary that she had first confided her great love for Bob. "And how can we ever be happy?" finished Anne, as she sat before Mary Brene's open fire. "Anne," said Mary, "you've allowed your house to absorb you. Do you re member the day I called, two weeks ago? When I got up from my chair you stopped to straighten It before you came with me to the door, i'ou didn't think I saw you. I was dying to tear that set, immaculate room to pieces. "You've taken a broom and dustpan and mop and driven comfort and hap piness right out of your home. You've denied Bob the companionship he's en titled to, and then wondered at his be ing silent and Irritable. He's disap pointed, Anne, and disillusioned. And," Mary's voice became more gentle, "you've been to blame." Anne hurried home, convinced that she had been losing sight of the great er things of life in pursuit of tilings less worth while. Mary had not spared her, yet she felt no resentment in her heart. She had been taught a much needed lesson a lesson she knew would help her many times in the fu ture. Bob greeted her as she opened the door. "I had to come home early, Anne," he said. "I kept remembering your face when I said what I did this morning. Will you 'forgive me? I thought perhaps I might persuade you from working so hard." "You don't need to persuade me any more, Bob. I'm beginning to realize that I've been the one at fault. I'm going to do differently that Is, If you don't mind having things less elab orate." Bob looked at her wonderlnglj'. He did not quite understand her sudden change of attitude, but he didn't stop to ask questions. A wave of gladness thrilled him. "Of course I don't mind, dear, If It will only bring me back a happy, con tented Anne." He pointed to a large package upon the table. "There's a surprise for you. June Evans helped me select It." Anne unfolded the wrappings and lifted out an evening wrap of soft gray with a wide fur collar. "It's lovely. Bob! Why, It must hfcve cost " Then stopped as he held up a forbidding hand. She softly stroked the lining of the shimmering coral satin. Bob drew her toward him and looked lnco the happy, flushed face. "My pretty little wife," said Bob. as he held her close. His Dilemma. .Tall Visitor Didn't you have money enough to pay the fine? Motorist Y"s, but I couldn't spare It. The car needs new tires and re-yarnUliing. Do all architects' smoke pipes? That was the question that struck outsiders at the fifty-sixth annual con vention of the American Institute of Architects held nt the Corcoran Gal lery of Art, Washington, recently. Nearly every other architect had a big pipe clinched between his teeth. Cigars were In the minority, and cigarettes nowhere. Just why this was no architect present could explain, unless It was as one of them said, "Oh, I guess we Just like a pipe best." Maybe architects smoke pipes be cause there Is less likelihood that fire will fall onto the drawing board. Or do successful architects draw nny more? Uses Ancient Legacy. An epidemic of witch-burning In New England occurred nbout lfiiX). A number of eccentric old women were denounced and put to death. Those days are linked with modern Harvard by the realization recently of a legacy left the university 223 years ago by Lieut. Gov. William Stoughton, who condemned and also pardoned many of the convicted witches. He was a member of the Harvard class of 1050. Stoughton hall perpetuates his memory- He died in 1700, leaving 23 acres of pasture to his old college. Part of this land has at length been sold to Boston city and scholarships will be established with the proceeds. Animal Plagues Let Loose. The true reason for famine prices of Rome articles of farm produce In Europe is given by Dr. E. A. Watson of the Health of Animals Branch of the Canadian Agricultural department, Ottawa. . He says that It comie from disorganization and paralysis of the veterinary service in many parts of Europe. This has allowed Infectious disease to spread from country to coun try, such as foot and mouth disease. So In several European countries milk, butter, meat and other animal foods are almost beyond the reach of the common consumer.
