I fmi The occasion was in the nature of n purprifia nnd shower in honor of the colonel's rctuni from nil extended visit to his old home in Tennessee. If it is truo thnt the way to u limit's- heart i through his stomnch tho colonel's heart must have been touched, for the ladies eame well laden with delicious refreshments. The little tokens of regard were presented by I). V. Stone in his usu at genial manner manner, to which Colonel Minis responded with much feeling. The evening was past in conversation and music. It wns one of the merriest social occasions of tho season. Those enjoying the ev ening were Colonel George 1. Minis, Messrs. and Mcsdnmcs Stone, Kent, liirkholtz, Anderson, Huiiri, J. W. Kldon, 11.

Tho following tribute wns read: One day in bright December Wien all the world wns gay The colonel took the motor And started far away. At once the sun went under And things got out of whack Hut soon there, enmo a postal Telling when Tho colonel would come back Still things they kept on happening The rnin came pouring down Tho thunder shook the hills Nothing ever Iiko it in this town. The wind it blew most awful, Made the houses rock and crack Just then wc got a letter Saying when The colonel would come back. Then times they grew very bad And things nil went awry. Why you couldn't rnisc a nickel Xo matter how you'd try. The grange they certainly missed him And the world looked very black But every ono cheered up For they knew The colonel would come back. Then this old Pacific Highway Certainly caused many a wail, It really needed the colonel To tie a knot right in its tXil. It wanted to be yanked hard Back in the old beaten track Thut will be all right when. Tho colonel would come back. Tho grown-ups grow very bine, Tho kids did wail and sob Why, wo had to have a doctor Forever on tho job. Now let everj one look cheerful And pull in all tho slack, Everything will sure be bright, for -The colonel has come back. ANNA HELD HEIR TO SAN FRANCISCO, Feb. 10. Anna Held, tho actress, declares tdie is tho heir to the $00,000 estate of Cherry do St. Maurice, n notorious woman of the Sacramento . under world, who wns murdered for her jewels Inst July. This fact was re vealed today by Chnrlcs F. Hunlon of this city, who is Miss Hold's at torney. A short time ago Miss Held, when playing in Chicago, announced that bhe hud been left a largo sum of money by a California woman, whoso nnme she could not remember, Tho rovelation that tho woman was nono other than tho notorious broth el keeper, for whose murder "Juck" Drumgoole, n prize fighter, has been (sentenced to hung, was tho only rel ative. "Aunn Held was tho only relntivo of Cherry do St, Muurice.," said At torney Hunlon. "In 1011, when the actress wns playing in Saornmento, Cherry do St. Maurico culled on her and told hor that sho was her only heir, 'if I die,' sho said, "I will leave you ovorylhing I Jmve.' "Sho told Miss Held that her mother was a sister of MLb Hold's father." Hnnlo.n is now endenvoriug to es tablish tho relationship. "As Cherry do St. Maurice did not leuvo any will, her estate is in es cheat to the Btattf of California, but J shall endeavor to forestall escheat proWiHftjfjron )ikW of Miss Held," Mid JJaulwi. from the good attendance, interest manifested and hearty co-operalion shown by the parents and patrons of the district it will be an event long remembered and one which wo hope will be continued. The object of this organization is to foster n eloer empathy and co operation between the home and the school, to increase the efficiency of both, and to further in every way the interests of the Oregon public schools in general and the Ituch school in particular. lluch school is one of the first ru ral schools in Jackson county to form an association of this kind, nnd it wns made possible through the persistent efforts of their teacher, Miss Nellie Collins. The following officers were elected nnd installed: .Mrs. Anna ltice, president; Miles Cnutrnll, vice-president; Mrs. Anna Ituch, secretary, nnd Miss Ncllii Collins, treasurer. Addresses were made by the ehool supervisor, A. It. Chase, Miles Can trail, Mrs. Anna Hice and Mr. Davis, supplemented at intervals with sev eral numbers by the pupils of the school. Tho addresses were nbly and en thusiastically rendered and express ed not only the speaker's sentiments of n future hearty co-ocration with the teacher and the school, but those of every good citizen nnd patron of (he district. The new cement block school building, with its modem hcatinc. system, adjustable steel desks nnd seats nnd all the other iieecnr modern equipments, just recentlj completed and installed at a cost ol about 3000 is a further mid the best manifestation of their interest sbowi in the betterment of the school. With these new improvements. wcP fenced nnd shady school grounds it has been made one of u few stand- OKVXX,X,t, MVBIOKT., With the "automatic stabilizer" In vented by Orvllle Wright It Is nossluW to-d.iy to learn to fly In twenty uilu utes.

K Ivrt.s from this ami other countries wutcbed lilt operations with Intense In tereat. He made the demonstration! before a M'eclal committee of the Acre Club ot America recently at Daytou. Ohio. Seventeen flights were made, and a a result of the tests the committee awarded to .Mr. Wrlsht the Collier trophy. Th trophy Is awarded each jcir and marks the most slgulf leant advance In the history of aeronautic for the year. Seven flights were made with the hands entirely off the auto matic "stabilizer," aud the turns were made with a precision that was mar rellous aud marled a new epoch lu the history of aviation. FOR AVIATOR'S DEATH urd schools, without exception, in Jackson county, nnd it can be safe ly said that there are few, if any more ideal rural schools in the state of Oregon. A very efficient and interestin' demonstration of the Ilnlicoek test for milk was given by the super visor, Mr. Chose. This demonstra tion was not only interesting and in structive to the pupils, but to th patrons as well, nnd was highly up practiced by all. The untiring efforts of our schoo' board, W. II. Vcnnble, Chns. Hamil ton and Miles Cnntrall, together with those of the teacher, Mis Col lins and Supervisor Chase, were clearly in evidence by the interest shown by this, our first meeting, and wo feel that nt last we have mus tercd ourselves into line, ready fot tho march of progress. Tho next meeting will be held the afternoon of February "JO, which wiP bo strictly a parent nnd teachers' meeting.

Cowan, com mandant of the first aero squadron, .stationed on North Island, San Diego bay, announced today that there would be no investigation by a mili tary board into Lieutenant Post's death. Such an investigation has been customary in the cases of other military nviators, but Captain Cowan failed to explain why one would not he called in this instance.
