Johnson An Old Miner Will E. Sheerer Rced-ln-the-Wlnd Helcne Martin Hubble, the- child, Baby Jane Truesdell Babble, the woman Miss Tennant Tne sharp report of a revolver sud denly rings out through the quiet northern wilderness, arresting the at tention of two young prospectors. For a moment the young men are Btunned. Then another report Is heard and the prospectors, hurrying In the direction whence the shots come, find a falr- halred cliild sitting at the edge, of an old shaft weeping. At the bottom of tlio shaft Is an aged miner. A pistol In his limp hand and a broken wind lass tell all too plainly of a fatal mis hap, for tlio miner Is maimed beyond all power of recovery. Dying, he begs the two youths to care for the little Babble. The boys decide to remain on the spot, taking up their abode In the cabin which the ac cident has left without a tennant The first few days of mortifying blunders in thalr empirical attempts at supply ing the maternal relation to a little lady of six convinces them that In one department at least even a Cree squaw can beat Die combined forces of two of England's best younger son.?. Reed In the Wind becomes the duly accred ited nurse and foster-mother to the little nibble. A dozen years lator, when the oh lid Llossonied Into a glorious flower, Jack and Fred become rivals for her hand. Each vies with tho other to outdo him with gifts. When Fred brings back from Skugwny a shawl such as no girl on the Yukon had neon before, .luck tops him with an of fer of a little plaster Cupid. Senti ment enjoys a temporary triumph over lavlnhness. Babble takes the llvo god to her heart, and a breach Is opened between tho two men. Before long this settles Into enmity. The bad blood Is finally precipitated a dispute over a mining claim. There Is a wild race to tho claim office. Fred, having borrow ed Babble's wolf to lead his team of huskies, outruns his stometime-part- ner and files a prior claim. The other, enraged at his defeat, cliallenges he successful man to argue their rival claims, both to the mining property and to tho girl, with Colts at twenty paces. The duel is just about to start when they are thrown Into sudden consternation by the spectacle of flames pouring from the doors and windows of Babble's cabin in the val ley close by. Tho men forget their quarrel in the urgent necessity of sav ing the girl they both love. Jack fin ally succeeds In carrying hor from the pyre. Io then returns to his erst- whllo partner, whom he has left InHlde over-powered by the smoke. Just as he raises the helpless man the char red flooring gives away and both are hurled far below into the abandoned shaft, which twelve years before had claimed the life of Babble's father. ('OMMAM)EU BOOTH LECTURES. (Continued from page 1.) . . Annihilate Social Evil. Approached on the subject of vice segregation, Miss Booth was very com munlcatiwB. The commander was very firm In her opposition to the very sug gestion of segregating the social evil. Her eyes flashed and sho looked every Inch the soldier as sho declared: "I cannot agree with such a fearful proposition for ono moment. It Is not segregation we want, but annihilation. I put this form of vice by tho side of nil other forms, and the Salvation Army, now as over, regards It as an In veterate foe which it will fight with ev ery weapon In Its possession. To seg regate Biich a fearful vice is to glvo It official recognition and permit It to carry on Its deadly work unmolested. Surely there was never a worse prop osition made under the sun than this! When It comes to pass that our muni cipalities will consider tho toleration of vice in such a form It makes one wonder as to whether It Is not possible l'or God to visit us as He did the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah In the olden times, and for a similar purpose. We must stamp out this Infamy! It is war to tho knife! If we do not conquer It, It will conquer us. "Of course, I believe In the one mor al standard for men and women. A fallen woman Is very largely the vic tim of man's perfidy and not one In 10,000 enters upon such a life volun tarily." Lecture Is New. The lecture to be given by Miss Booth tonight is new. She gave It for the first time In Denver about two weeks ago. The commander will not go outside of her own commandery of tho United Stato3 with the lecture, ex cept possibly a short trip Into Canada The lecturer will tell as well as can be told In one lecture of the life of her father. The address will be accom panied by Btercoptlcon and moving pictures showing all of the important events of his life and work, and views of the funeral. Asked how tlio appreciation of the life of her father by the American people compared with that of the Eng lish the commander sold It was fully as great. As an evidence sho told how the telegraph companies at the time of General Booth's death worked extra forces of men all over the United Sta'ej to take care of the messages of condolence that were sent her by cele brated people. She places great value on an ''iimense fllo of newspapers pre sented her which contain stories and editorials bearing on the funeral of her noted parent. In the Booth party are Commander Thomas Estill, Col. G. J. Parker, Ma jor Robert Griffiths, Staff Captain Wolch, Adjutant George Cook, Captain Jackson and Brigadier Robert Dubbin. All of the party except Commander Estill nnd Brigadier Dubbin come from New York. Brigadier Estill belongs In the northwest and Commander Estill belongs In Chicago. Ho commands the western division of the army. CITY TO WEAR ULAD RAGS.

SPECIAL Today Only Inauguration of President Wilson Satan will come to Sa lem next week n tt ii M II II II II II M II II II El a ii ii tt n ii u ra ta u u ej u u 4 M I II 11 u n n ci ti ii CI Mayor Steeves today issued orders to Chief of Police Shcdeek to enforce the curfew ordinance, and tomorrow night at exactly fifteen minutes before nine o'clock, the fire whistle will blow and thus warn every person under the age of 18 years to be off the streets of Salem unless accompanied by either parents or guardians. This Is an ordinance passed by the city council years ago and is covered with the proverbial antl-enforcenient spider-web and mould. A valiant at tempt was made by former chiefs of the city police department to carry out the privlslons of the curfew ordinance, but due to seventeen and ne-ar-eighteen year-old young men and women of prominent parens In the city objecting to being shooed home every time they emerged from a picture show or the atre without their parents by their sides, the Job was given up as a bad one. Parents Equally Responsible. Under the ordinance In question, the parents of children under the ago of 18 years are made responsible for the actions of their offspring, and any ar rest made of persons violating the cur few law will not only affect the minor but necessitate a prosecution of the parents as well. According to Mayor Steeves' argu ment In behalf of the curfew law, the city police officers are supposed to ex ercise an unusual amount of Judgment whllo enforcing the ordinance. He states that "well known local citizens In company with minor children should bo exempt from question and the police should take such circum stances Into consideration before act ing after the curfew signal Is sound ed." It Is the general opinion of those who have had occasion to observe the efforts of former police administra tions, that the ordinary policeman Is not familiar with the faces of every man, woman and child In Salem, and to compel him to say who arc minors and parents, who are responsible friends and guardians Is nothing short of the Impossible. However, Chief Shedeck has been di rected to enforce the ordinance to the letter and steps will be taken to do so tomorrow night Until April first, the curfew alarm will be sounded fifteen minutes before 9 o'clock and during the summer "months, the time for mi nora to bo home unless properly ac companied on the streets, will bo at 10 o'clock. Ex-Chiefs Gibson and Hamilton at tempted to enforce the ordinance, but found that the number of boys and girls coming under the provisions of the law was so great, that It would re- iqulro extra men to enforce it These chiefs and former councllmen did not approve of the age limit placed by the ordinance and consequently rigid en forcement was not brought about. Chief of Police Shedeck seated today that he was not entirely In favor of the age limit provided by tho law, but Inasmuch as he has been directed to enforco that section of It, he Intends to do so to tho lector. Jio Juvenile Officer Serving. At present this city Is without a Ju venile officer. The duties of Police Matron Lynch are supposed to cover tho Juvenile question, but according to Mayor Steeves today, she has never been officially appointed to that posi tion. Tho curfew ordlnnnce provides that the mayor shall appoint a Juvenile officer to act In conjunction with the police department. This has not been ! done as yet. nnd Mrs. Lynch has no authority, under tho ordinance crcat-' Ing tho office, of police matron, to act j as an arresting officer, nnd her duties arc confined to having the custody of female charges In the city bastlle. Whether or not she has been accord, ed the privilege of exercising authority outside of being the custodian of the women prisoners In tho city Jail, Is a mixed question, notwithstanding the ordlnnnro crediting her office places tho salary at. $."0 per month and regu larly appoints her to a position which Is usually governed by the head of tho police department, but ovar which the Sulrtii chief has no control. Absolutely Pure Absolutely has no substitute Many mixtures are offered as substitutes for Royal. No other baking powder is the same in composition or effectiveness, or so wholesome and economical, nor will make such fine food. Royal Is the only Baking Powder made from Royal Grape Cream of Tartar He Is expected to make his appearance at the club every evening about 7 o'clock and remain untlfcloslng time. Jack Rabbits a Pest Independence, Ore., March 13. The Jack rabbits In Polk county are doing considerable damago to trees In young orchards. They have, during the past two years, Increased rapidly in num ber, and it Is now a very common oc currence for farmers to shoot the ani mals near their houses. They peel the bark off young trees, especially wal nuts and filberts, and either kill the trees or put them behind In one or more year's growth. Tho rabbits are lately) found In two species, one a light gray, and the other a light bluish brown. They roam about the hills, feeding off tho crops of farmers in the edge of the timber. Just what method can be brought about to stop the multiplication or the orchard pests Is a perplexing question to fanners and fruit growers of Polk county On Sat urday hunters going Into the country, kill a large number of rabbits, but this falls as a permanent method for their disposal. A Stiff Sentence. UNITED rilRSB LEASED WIHB. San Francisco, March 13. United States District Judge Van Fleet hand ed stiff Jolts here today to two men convicted of passing raised bills. Fred Johnson, alleged leader of a gang of bill raisers, was sentenced to serve 20 years In the federal penitentiary at McNeil's Island, and William Montelth was sentenced to three years at the same prison.
