Don Juan’s Path to Hell
for Noted Indian Chief AT MRS. PEEBLEY’S
Proves a Painful One
Detroit.—‘‘Don Juan” went to
‘‘hell” at the Little theater here re­
cently, but more suddenly and pain­
fully than the author of “The Last
Night of Don Juan" Intended.
Juan was to be led fearfully down
the steps to "hell."
The property man had neglected
to fasten the steps securely. The
pathway to hell collapsed. Don
Juan, played by Arnold Beardsley,
tumbled Into the nether region»
with a crash that brought the audi­
ence to Its feet.
He finished the play with band
¡.ges around his head.
Ancient City of Bergamo
One of the most picturesque
towns of Lombardy in Italy Is the
ancient little city of Bergamo,
perched on a conspicuous hill and
still redolent of the days when the
Venetians made It one of their
fortresses. It Is a quaint and
crooked place with many Interest
Ing buildings. The church of Santa
Marla Maggiore, dating In part
from 1137, has excellent Roman­
esque work of black and white
marble. During the greater part
of Its history Bergamo belonged
to the state of Venice, having ac­
quired the city from Milan In 1428
and retaining It until 1797.
Kamehameha’s Conqueat
After King Kamehameha had

Hawaii, he was eager to rule the

after which he sailed tor Oahu,
landing at Waikiki, in February,
1795. Tlie Oahu soldiers were
posted In Nuuanu valley and here
the great battle was fought. The
enemy, or Oahu men, were driven
over the pall. Kauai and Nllhau
were later ceded to him and in this
way he brought all the Islands un­
der his guidance or rule.—Wash­

Nebraska City, Neb.—Chief Wau-
bonsie, for whom the new bridge
spanning the Missouri river here
has been named, was the last great
chief of the Pottawattauiles, an
Indian tribe which first Inhabited
the territory now Included In In­
diana and the vicinity of the south­
ern shore of Lake Michigan.
Later the tribe moved to the ter
rltory now comprising Iowa and
northern Missouri, and still later to
the state of Kansas, according to
an authentic record of the life of
Chief Wauhonsie, compiled by the
Waubonsle Bridge company. The
record was gained through months
of research work In co-operation
with the superintendent of docu­
ments and the Smithsonian institu­
tion at Washington.
Forget Trouble.
Troubles magnify themselves too
largely In fearful anticipation. The
result Is wasted worry. Remember
the adage of the ancient philoso­
pher who remarked: "I am an old
man and have had many troubles,
but the most of them never hap-
pened.”—Grit
Secret of Caves
Scientists have been trying for
years to piece together the story of
the Ma.vas as revealed In the ruins
of their pyramids, temples and
monuments, and now the Investiga-
tors are confronted with a new
problem, a series of vast caverns
in Yucatan which extend for
many miles, says Popular Mechan­
ics Magazine. Pictures and in­
scriptions on the walls indicate
that the caves have been visited
by human beings, but so far arch­
eologists have been unable to de­
cipher the marks or establish the
time when they were carved. Were
the caverns used for burial places
or for religious rites? Science can­
not tell. There Is no evidence that
they were used for human habita­
tion, although this Is a possibility.

What we need to make this the one out­
standing city and community in which to live
is more faith in it, more loyalty to it, and more
pride in it. If every dollar spent by citizens of
this community would find its way through
some local business, professional or other home­
trade channels, we would be agreeahlv surprised
at the effect it would have on the general pros­
perity of this entire area------and directly and
indirectly to every home and individual.
