IRKED TRAIT
IS MODESTY
A remarkable portrait of Leopold
Oodowsky, tho world famous pianist
who will bo heard hero on Thurs
day ovcnlng January 27th, at tho
Scandinavian hall, was palntod by
Haskell Coffin, tho eclobrated por
trait painter and exhibited at a pro
mlnont Fifth avenuo gallery.
Ho says: "No dno can truly know
QodowBky without both liking and
respecting him. Ho Is small of sta
ture, but great of soul, A poet as
woll as a master musical ot tho fin
est order. t
Among his many flno characteris
tics most prominent and most raro Is
his wonderful modesty. As he him
solf remarked, "Why should one feel
conceited, when llfo Is so very transi
tory and uncortatn."
"Ho Is possessed of a most discrim
inating tasto anct ono feels that ho
not only has the courago of his con
victions, but Is truo to thorn. To bo
ablo to paint a real portrait, It is noc
ossary to ponetrato even the soul ot
any subject, and my impression of
Leopold Oodowsky is not only that of
a great artist, but ot a man of fine
and high character, whom wo prize
as a sincere friend."
The coming of Leopold Oodowsky
to Klamath alls Is ono of tho great
ovonts ot tho year. While It is a
groat treat to thoso who love music
It Is also an advertisement for this
city, heralding us all over tbo coun
try, not only a business center, but
possessing culture and development
along artistic lines, making this a
desirable place to mako a home.
iLls through the efforts ot the
Musical Study club that this master
pianist Is to appear here. Tho en
thusiasm shown and tho support glv
en leads us to believe that thoso In
terested In the development ot this
city as woll as thoso who lovo music
will show their appreciation by at
tending this concert.
Tho price ot admission Is much less
than has ever been charged for Ood
owsky concerts; but by making this
low price of $1.60 and no reserve
soats everyone will have an oppor
tunity to hear tho greatest artist
that has ovor visited Klamath Falls.
Seats are now on salo at tho Earl
Shephord company and at the Square
Deal drug store..

A practical Joke 'that sort ot, flz
bled brought Roy Poolo in from Cbil
oquln today to get medical treatment
for somo sovoro cuts on the forehead,
Inflicted by the butt of a bIx shooter
wielded, club fa'shjotf'by W. M. Wllkte,'
who says he is a "dry" investigator.
Tho sheriff's office today wired Port
land to determine, tho exact standing
ot Wllkte In prohibition enforcement,!
circles.
Roy Is a brother of Hhrry Poolo,
local theatre man, and runs the
branch movie house at Chlloquln,
There is a select cotorle around the
stovo theso evenings at the Chllo
quln botol, managed by Chester Bal
four. Tho "dry" agent blow In on a hunt
for stills, which he evidently be
lieved abounded in the neighbor
hood. Tho botol crowd did not dls
courago his belief. They saw a
chance for a little gontlojaplng with
the stranger, who rodo his hobby
hard, and 'encouraged him.
Having worked Wllkle up to tho
right pitch they produced tho evi
dence and here enters Hve. Mrs.
Balfour called Wllklo off in ono cor
nor and whispered: "There's the
moonshiner Poolo. Ho makes gal
lons ot It under the theatre. See the
bottlo In his pocket now," 4
Suro enough Poolo swaggered
through tho crowd with a bottle of
ambor fluid "on his hip." It was
cold tea but it looked real enough to
drink.
Followod Poole's "arrost." Then,
he says, he went to the kitchen to
get a drink. W.llklo waylaid him and
wlolded tho gun butt on him. Bal
four camo to tho aid of his guest
and Wllkle 'plnchod" him. The
Joko" camo to light and Wllklo
wantod to let his captives go but by
that tlmo every ono was well wrought
up mid thoy Insisted that lto go
through with It, bring them to Jail
horo, nnd show by what authority
ho mado tho arrest. -
U. S. Commissioner Thomas say
no reason to dignify tho matter with
a hearing today.
Balfour and Poolo say the alleged
"dry" ngont iiad been stimulating
an already supor-sonslttvo Imagina
tion with drafts ot Jamaica ginger.
In other words they assert he was
Intoxicated.
Although WJlklo posod as a deputy
sheriff at Chlloquln, Sheriff Low says
ho retusod to give him a commission
last wook when he asked for one.
Wllklo was armed with a stack of cre
dentials nid recommendations from
many officers In the state.
