'The council's action was taken Im 'nied'atcly after tho meeting was con vened. In fact before starting regu lar proceedings each member had It In mind for .Mod ford to do something for Astoria. It was the first meet ing of tho council since that 111 fated CUy had been wiped out by flames, lience when tho body was Just as sembling and there had boon talk of Bonding the northern city sufforors a 'car load .oj apples as a gift from hub cuy mo opinion prevanou mat It would bo tho bottor, plan to' delay iictlon Until the Astoria citizens' re lief commlttoo had been communicat ed with and It was loamed Just what was most neoded. lience Mayor Gates put In a long instance phone call and soon had phatrman Cilbert of the rellof com mittee on the wire. Mr. Gilbert ex pioased himself as profoundly grate ful when informed that Medford was going to make a substantial donation, and that it had been suggested to rush b car load of apples. v However, Chairman Gilbert said that while Astoria people would ap preciate any gift, yet money-was ileoded most of all for emergoncy jitio.i The money could be spent for Eroded substantial food and clothing. iind,thc i lljie.;. Thereore any amount f&f inoney would bo deeply appreciat i'A and would go furthor In sending j-ollor than any other commodity, fs': Immediately on hearing the may report of this telephone conver ;etlon the councilmen dropped all "other business and with only a few 'vfcdo discussion voted at once to .rend $500.

MONHOU, I,a., Dec. 20. Com pany U. Louhslana National Guard of .Monroe, which moved out of hero for Morehouso' parish yesterday, was In camp at Mer Rogua at daybreak to day and will remain there for several days, according to a message receiv ed here from Captain W. W. Cooper, tho commander. Captain Cooper said he was un prepared to give the purpose for which the soldiers were sent to Mer Rogue and had no Information other than orders to go Into camp at Mer Rogue. Reports 'were current throughout Moorebouso parish today that the bodies of Watt Daniels and Thomas Richards bad been located either In Cooper or LaPourcbo lake, weighted down with a wagon whoel said to have been taken from a farmer's ve hiclo by the band of masked men who kidnapped five Mer Rogue citi zens on August 24.

W" Avoid Imitation! and Subilitutei before ho. departed from Los AngelcB after a busy week hero spent In or ganizing plans for tho development of a mutuality of Interests and sym pathy with tho artistic commercial community which the local motion picture colony forms, between it and tho civic community in which the picture makers llye.'f. air. Huys said: "Every man in tho right and at tho proper tlmo is entitled to his chance to make good. It Is apparent that ftoHcoo Arbucklo's conduct since that troublo merits another chance. "It becamo known apart from the bric-f formal uttorances that certain definite features figured in tho action that will allow Arbucklo another op portunity to make good. "First, perhaps, was the fact that he seems completely chastened and that his conduct slnco has was bar red from the screen last April appar ently hus been exemplary. "Again it is known that Arbucklo never made a picture to which any exception could poBslhly be taken and ho never will. His pictures wero not high art. of- course, but thoy were always clean and they brought laughs to millions. "Still again It wns felt that Inns much ns" a-Jury acquitted him of the charges upon which ho was tried ho Is constitutionally entitled to the right of any citizen tho light of working at tho only thing he knows how to work at. "No plans are in contemplation for the rclenso- of the thrco -comcdlos In which Arbucklo appeared boforo his trial, and which have since been held up; and tho action now taken does not In any way concern tho release of theso films." Tho career of Arbucklo as ono of thb most successful and popular mo tion picturo .comedians was halted by a tragedy in Uepteinbor, 1H2I.. On the- fifth of that month, Labor day, Arbuekln occupied a suite of rooms at tho St. Francis hotel, Han Francisco, whoro he was visited by a number of men and women, most of thoni connected with motion picturo or ntngo work. Ono of the visitors wns Mica Virginia Kuppc, who had been filmed in minor parts In l.os Angeles. Miss Itappo was tukon suddenly 111 und rushed to n hospital where sho died four days later. An autopsy rcv?nlod an Internal injury. State ments wore made by othor members of tho party that tho actress was nlone In a room with Arbucklo when 'sho begnn to scream and was carried out, nppnrontly suffering great pain. Arbucklo was indicted for man slaughter and thrco trials followed. The Juries In tho first two disagreed, while tho third returned a verdict of acquittal. Arbucklo's pictures wero with drawn shortly after his arrest. Theatres In various parts Of tho coun try began to run them again when ho was acquitted, but they were with drawn again by direction of Mr, Hays, who had recently been made chief arbiter tf the allied motion picture Industries. Arbucklc's emit met with tho Famous Dayers-Lasky corpora tion was cancelled during tho trials. Arbucklo married Miss Mlnta Dur fee, a vaudeville actress. They were separated at tho tlmo of tile Happo tragedy, but Miss Durfoo returned to her husband while ho was In Jail and stood by 111 in during the trials. After tho acquittal sho wont to Now York to resume her stage work,' but wild she and her husband wero fully reconciled. ' NOTICE!
