The last opportunity of seeing Clara
Morris in a line of her famou. imperso-
nations will be given at the ne. Seattle
theater on Thursday. Friday and Satur-
day evenings, December %. 80 and 81.
Miss Morris will not visit the sornd cities
again in a professional capacity. As her
seasons grow, shorter and the demand for
her appearance in the larger Eastern cities
is greater than she cares to fill, she will a,
far as possible avoid the long railroad
journeys n stay nearer home. She has
an elegant suburban home at RIverdale
on the Hudson. and being a very wealthy
woman can afford long rests from actual
work. hence her determination 20 make
this Coast tour her last. For he7occasion
OF her visit here she will give the order
named, 'Odette. ""Claire." aSi ARTICLE
A." 'Odette" is by Sardou, l. new here.
and IS a play of unquestio ae,z merit.
Astounding in realism anc dramatic

ance of this role is matchless, and remains

is AFRAID OF LAVAN.
Jesse Cochran Fears the Ex-
Street LabOrer.
WANTS HIM PUT UNDER BONDS
since Shooting Cummings Patrick Lava,
Amagines the Public Works Com
missioner His Enemy.

Jesse cochran, member Of the board of
puoiic works, consulted Chief OF Police
JACKSON yesterday regarding the advisa-
oiitv OF putting Patrick Lavsn, a laborer
unoef nonus to keep the peace. No action
was taken. but the police will keen A
close watch in Difference to the commis
sioner's fears.
Lavan Is the mar who shot Street Com
missioner Cummings III his Office last
spring because he had been DISCHARGED
from his place as a laborer on the streets.
IL appears hat Lavan is now under the
impression that Mr.. Cochran was instru-
mental IN having him discharged and
SINCE then has threatened Cochran's life.
rev days ago he asked Mr.. Cochran to
put him back on the street work, and
"nen ne received a negative reply said
ho.hing, but looked far from pleasant.
it Is Mr.. Cochran's fear that Lavan
might do with him as he attempted to do
Win the street commissions a few months
ago that caused him TO consider the adj
visibility of having him put under bonds.
IL VIII be remembered that when Layau
assaulted Commissioner Cummings he
walked into his Office and fred three shots
without giving any warming. Forum
a'eiy Mr.. Cummings escaped with a flesh
wound.
Lavan has never been prosecuted for this
assault. He is a highly respected man
with a family and never had any trouble
uhtii ne was discharged from the street de-
partfnent. He then thought some one in
the administration had personal spite
against him. He had no other way of
supporting himself and he has hrooded
over the matter until he is said to be in a
SAD state on this one subject, although his
friends say he will never let his passions
get away with him again, |
Immediately after the assault on Cum |
mlngs an ordinance was introduced into
the council providing for connecting everv |
room In the city hall with the police de-
partment by an electric alarm system. The
was seriously considered for a time.
out people laughed at it so much that the
council killed it last Tuesday night.
