Ridgely Lodge, No. 6. D. r., to exemplify the
beautihed work in the evening by its staff. The
staff complied last evening.
The committee on segregation and dstribu-
ton of the subjects contained in the reports OF
the grand officers recommend the proper divi-
sion and reference as is customary. The reports
of the grand secretary and the grand
treasurer were sent to the finance COM
mittee in the natural order of refer
cnce. 1t was recommended that the
presidents report be printed in pamphlet
form, and the number of copies was fixed at 100
in resolution offered later, and favorably re-
ported. President Mrs. shaw thereupon ap-
pointed Grand Secretary Mrs. Mary F. Bean

sembly delicntely decided 10 add to that com
mittee the name of Mrs Shaw.

Der of black balls required to exclude candi-
date from membership 10 three only; and

A resolution making an appropriation

sent them to the Grand Lodge assembled.

mended that the grand presidents decisions be

THE COUNTY COMMISSIONERS.
r.. III. Thompson Appointed County Sur
ayeYor-SmiIie Called to Time

At a meeting OF the board of county commits
sioners yesterday new county surveyor was
elected and good deal of road business trans
acted. In the morning session Chairman Case b
was not present and the business was transacted
by Messrs. Wooding and Taylor, the other two
members of the board. Mr. Gasch appeared
after dinner and assisted in disposing OF COM
munications, petitions. etc.
The principal business of the board was in
choosing man to succeed Paul Riecker as
county surveyor. The board was unanimous in
appointing K. H. Thompson to that Office.
During the afternoon the board had a talk
with Robert Smile, contractor for the new
courthouse and told him that unless no hurried
up and finished the building something terrible
would happen. They told him he would be al
lowed no more payments on account until the
building was completed Mr.. Smile took
things quietly and philosophicslly, and said
that he guessed the courthouse would be fin
ished by the first of next month.
The county roads petitioned for by NJ P.
Maddocks ct al and Thomas K. Johnston ct al
were considered and the roads were ordered es-
tablished.
The petition of NJ. Wilson ct al, for new
county road, was rejected on the grounds that
the petitioners had not posted the notices
properly.
Liquor licenses were granted to Robert Pike.
of Hot Springs, and to Lewis & Lafromboise, Of
Enumclaw
During most of the afternoon session the
board was engaged at the county treasurer's
office in making its regular quarterly settle
ment. The settlement was for the quarter end.

ADJUSTMENTS.
"Lend Ne Your Wife"

"Lend Me Your Wife," the farcical fabric pre-
sented by Mr.. Roland Reed and his excellent
company at the Seattle opera house last night,
is one of those light comedies of confusion,
complication and suggestion that never fail to
please, and its success here Is fully az great it
has been elsewhere. The house was crowded,
and more delighted audience never gathered
within the four walls The performance
throughout gives the impression that it has
been specially arranged to avoid the eensure
even of the most captious, and If so, ID is en-
tirely successful. Both play and players afford
delightful entertainment The fun of the
comedy is never permitted to flag, and the re-
tinement of the piece is one of it's greatest
charms. Roland Reed as Captain Abuer Tarbox
is enjoying the greatest success of his sta re ca
reer His performance, no matter how critically
viewed, displays nothing but merit, and is en-
titled to rank among the highest comedy eff
forts of the day. Mr. Reed has now established
his right to rank with the foremost comedians
OF the American stage. He has also exhibited
great Judgment in the selection of his sup
port. 1t is seldom company is encountered
who are so thoroughly equal to their work, and
there is not single Individual in the cast
who merits unfavorable mention. Harry A.
Smith, who plays Dick Easily, is natural and
pleasing light comedian who manages TO give
great satisfaction, notwithstanding the fact
than he is handicapped by severe cold Will
liam c. Andrews is also very good as Tom
Bunting. Ernest Bertram's performance OF
BENJAMIN Funnibone stamps him as an ex-

Nominations for Trustees of the Cham
Der of Commerce.

Der of Commerce.
The principal business transacted at yester-
days meeting of the trustees OF the Chamber OF
Commerce was the adoption of a resolution pro-
viding for two committees, each of five mem
bers, to select two separate tickets for the COM
ing annual election of trustees which is to be
held on Monday, June 1. The resolution was
offered by Mr.. Thomas Prosch, its one peculiar
preamble being that sit is desirable to have two
separate and independent tickets in the field"
Each ticket is to be a list of fifteen names of
eligible candi dates. A note disfranchises from
voting any person who shall have failed to pay
his membership fees, and the same delinquency
bars out OF Office by making the delinquent in
eligible. IL was unanimously adopted, upon
Or. Mitten's motion, and after the board adj
journed Vice President Graves, who had occu-
pied the chair, chose the two committees as fol-
lows:

to the situation. was investigating the subject,
and would be able TO make full report soon
As yet, however, they had not secured all the
information necessary TO enable them to file
such a report as they had wished, but, in gen.
eral way, they felt that the encouragement of
the mining industries by the opening OF roads
and the furnishing OF better transportation
facilities should be encouraged in every posi-
BILE way.
Secretary Dodge referred to Mr.. D. Willis
James SUCCESSION that the chamber inaugurate

destruction of timber Attention was called 70

Another large audience greeted "La vendetta"
last night at Cordray's theater. Both the scenes
and play went much more smoothly than on the
opening night Mr.. Whiteear, in his role OF
Count Romans, gives an artistic rendition Of
that role. His death scene is extremely fine,
his fall Is the finest ever seen on that stage. Mr.

the schsming villain, who tries to work his way
into the good graces of the woman whom he
calls his wife in order to extort money from her.

they were and insisted on seeing what they were
hiding. They were taken to the city jail and
charged with grand larceny, though the owner
of the property could not be found last night.
They had no money about them, so it is prob
able the register was empty when taken. It
