A Great Shipping Point

royal city Of the Nooksack valley is
getting to be one Of the principal ship
ping points on the Fairhaven d South

gentleman the other day, who often
passes over the line. The completion
of the wagon bridge connecting the
two towns Of Ferndale and Lansdowne
has opened up large expanse Of coun-
try which has hitherto been debarred
from using the railroad. This is get

ness here, and the main road TO the

planked all the way from our depot to

At Lighthouse Theater

An audience Of at least 1000 admirers
Of Remenyi, one of the greatest Of liv-
ing violinists, assembled in Music Hall
last evening TO pay homage to their
favorite artist, says the Cincinnati En-.
quirer Of April 20.
As of old, Remenyi played with all
Of his usual force and dexerity of exc
cution. The tone which the great wiz
ard Of the bow brought forth from his
instrument was truly marvellous, and
the feeling with which the various
solos were executed created the greatest
enthusiasm, the artist being Obliged to
respond 10 four or five encOres.
Seldom has Music Hall been the
scene of so much display Of genuine
musical enjoyment and pleasure. Re
menyi's version Of the andante and
finale from Memberships violin con-
certo was a revelation, while his rendi-
ton of the Chopin and Schubert num-
bers, as well as his own transcription Of
the passionate Hungarian melodies,
was charming in the highest degree.
As last encore Mr.. Remenyi favored
the public with his own inimitable per-
formance Of the "Liberty Hymn" and
"The Last Rose OF Summer" Remenyi
studies TO please, and possibly this is
the great secret why he is a universal
favorite. The artists who assist Mr..
Remenyi in the rendition Of the very
enjoyable program are all soloists of the
first rank.
Remenyi is supported by Miss Min
ME ID. Methot, a soprano Of unusual
power; Mile. Florence Sage, AS pianist,
and Mr.. /. w. Marshbank, a celebrated
baritone. At Lighthouse theatre,

MANY KILLED AND INJURED

WAsHINGTON, ID. c., June 9-Ford's
old opera house, on Tenth street, in
which President Lincoln was assassi-
mated, has just fallen in. About 400
government clerks were in the building
at the time, and a great loss of life is
feared. No details as yet.
LATER, 1925 a. m.-There were over
400 clerks in the building. Scarcely
one escaped more or less injury.
Twenty-eight persons have been taken
out Of the ruins up to 1918 a. m. The
emergency hospital is crowded with
the dead and injured. The injuries,
from the very nature of the accident,
are of the severest character, crushed
and broken limbs and internal injuries
prevailing. The excitement of the
relatives and friends was naturally in
tense. Thousands surround the scene,
and the excitement has spread all over
the city.
1890 a. m.-One of the workmen, a
colored man who was employed in ex-
cavating the cellar, and who escaped
with only slight cuts, says: al told
them yesterday that the archway
would fall, for every time anyone
walked over the floor it would bend. |
tell you | was scared, and got out lust
as quick as | could. There were twenty
men at work with me, and | don't

lowing are the lists of the dead at the

Also three bodies said TO be those Of f..
w. MOoder, X. :. Dietrich and a man
named Young. These identifications
are not complete. The number of dead
reported from all sources at this hour
is twenty-fOuT. -Four others are re-
ported dead, but their bodies are not at
the morgue or the hospitals. The
names of forty-nine injured have been
secured, but this is probably not nearly
correct, as many were sent direct TO
their homes.

Washington's Day

Washington day at the Worlds fair,
says the West Coast Trade, should be
changed 10 some time In September 10
meet the popular accord Of all classes Of
people In this state. There are many
reasons for this. At that time OF,
abundant harvest will have been Sc
cured; the laboring element, which IL
now busy, would have more leisure a.
well as available funds. Exhibits OF
all kinds, fresh from the fields, would
be available, and the showing made Of
the states resources would be greatly
enhanced in value and attractiveness.
The movement In that direction is well
timed, and should be successful.

Portuguese, giving his name as Jose
Veria Clemento, fatally shot his sweet
heart, Mary Condo, Of South Second
street, near Rowland, this morning.
Immediately afterward he attempted
suicide by shooting himself behind the
ear. He was captured and locked up.
He declares he meant to kill the girl
and told her 80 last Christmas, because
she was on too intimate terms with an
other Portuguese in Taunton, and ex-
changed pictures with him against
Clemento's wishes. Clemento's wound
is not serious and he will in all prob
