FINE BIRTHDAY PRESENT
On the 10th insi., the occasion being her
birthday, Mrs. Percy G. Charles was the
recipient of a token of esteem from tlit
members of the Iditarod String Orchestra
of which she is justly proud. It consists
of a breastpin of ivory and gold, in the
form of a lyre, < r ancient harp, the body of
which is of line ivory and the strings of
gold. It is an exquisite piece of workman
ship, said to be as fine an example of the
jeweler’s art as was ever seen in the North.
It is the work of Christy Anthonieson. and
has been greatly admired.

“HARD TIMES BALL” I
HAS AMUSING FEATURES
The “hard times” ball given by the Idit- I
arod Kennel Chib on Tuesday evening last, I
as part of its St. Patrick’s day celebration,
was only fairly well attended. For some i
reason or other, probably on account of the
excitement connected with the annual
sweepstakes race, the decorations commit
tee failed to put in an appearance, and
as a result there was not even a green Hag
displayed in honor of Frin’s patron saint.
However, there were other enjoyable and
amusing features galore, and “Chef” F. M.
Stanton w< n the plaudits of all for the
bounteous spread of hard times edibles pro
vided by him, and also for the energy and |
industry lie disj laved in serving it.
The music, furnished by the Idit arod
String O ehestra, was most r.uj \ able, and
was th<‘ object of much complimentary com
ment.
Some amusing make-ups were m rvi
deuce, and perhaps the best was that of i
perry Charlis. who represented a hold-up I
in:.ii in hard luck. He made good the char- ,
acit-r, as master of ceremonies, by levying |
tribute upon some of the dancers who ap- I
peared in co-tune s far too immaculate for
the occasion.
The program r ndered by the orchestra
was as follows:

PRESIDENT DECLARES PLATFORM
PLEDGE CANNOT BE ENFORCED
Washington, let). 20 The intention of
President Wil-on to have the law relative
to free toll- for Amen an coastwise ship
ping through the Panama canal repealed is
now apparent. 11« recently marie to re
porters the statement that international
complications precluded the possibility of
these free tolls, and nullified to that extent
the free canal tolls provision of the Haiti
more plat form.
The public i- intensely interested in this
at'itud" of the Pre-idcnt. and .-urprising as
it may seem, it i.- being accepted generally
as inevitable.
There has beta considerable agitation no
tic able in.the metropolitan newspapers to
back up the removal of the free tolls clause,
and as the coastwi-e shipping is itself mak
ing no very genuine protest against the re
peal of the law. if is evident that the rea
a f*t it.- *'\i-tenee is more a matter of
.'•ntiinent than anything «dse.
Tito real reason for thi< condition can
he attributed t<> the fart that the railroads
which are otherwise opposed to the fre
o.ll proposition control most of the coast
wise ping v.. h has no power t
test.
The strongest opponents of the canal have
been the I'nited States arid ( anadian rail
road system.-', and the latter are respond
hie f**r the jpmtest of Croat Britain against
the fr--e tolls arrangements.
