LOUIS XIV. clNEMATOGRAPHED.
Modern Mechanical Magic Provides
 Versailles Spectacle.

Frenchmen who venerate the past and abhor all modern inventions are terribly scandalized at what they de- scribe as the dissertation of the his toric palace of Versailles, which on Friday last was made to serve as the spectacles organized at the request Of cinematograph operator.
 The object was to reproduce as faithfully as possible number of characteristic scenes in the life of Yer sailles during the life of Louis XIV. Eighty persons were engaged to repre- sent the great monarch and his cour- tiers, and at o'clock in the morning they drove up in carriages and were admitted to the palace grounds. All of them wore the costume of the period and when the magnificent state coach, drawn by gorgeously caparison- ed horses, had been brought from the Trianon, an imposing Louis XIV, dressed in canary-coored silk and car rying a long gold-tlpped staff, took up a conspicuous position in front of it.
 Around his majesty was a brilliant group of courtiers, with wigs and swords, and powdered ladies-ln- wait ing, and further off band of musi- 1 clans with flies and drums and other instruments.
 | In a large open space between the I rxtx .1 Ln foI1ntnin Ctnn6 a number of ethereal-looking ballet dancers, who as soon as the music be- gan kept time with graceful movement as they performed the dance of the Valkyries.
 Ladies and gentlemen of the court strutted about smiling and lowing, and King Louis beamed with royal satis- faction at the pretty sight. Not fan away three gentlemen in irreproach' able silk hats and frock coats superin- tended the working of the cinemato graph in recording "an entertainment at Versailles under Louis XIV"
 Then a white column of spray rose from the great fountain. The king en tered his carriage, his courtiers form ed an escort and, followed by guards and retainers, the royal procession passed slowly before the photographer
 In the afternoon dainty water nymphs disported themselves to the delight of his majesty in the Bosquet de la Colonnade, and the days pro ceedings were brought to fitting con clusion by a duel between patrician la dies fought before the royal eyes ant those of the gentlemen with silk hats and frock coats-London Mall.

They said the dis ease had become chronic. then quit them and tried various ointments and soaps for another two years, but as soon as cold weather came I was as bad off as ever, so I finally decided to let medicine alone, and for twelve or thirteen years did nothing towards curing the Eczema, except bath ing.

JOHN NJ. RICH
Rare and Unusual Treat at the Opera
House Tonight.

An event of the utmost impor.
tance to the people in general, and
educators and school children in
particular, is the lecture at the
opera house tonight { Tuesday,
March 2S) by John M. Rich, pro-
badly the ablest speaker in this
country today on the subject of the
far eastern complications.
Mr.. Rich will speak on "The
Asiatic Question up to Date" "
He has for the past ten years made
a special study of European and
Asiatic diplomacy, and his thor
ough knowledge of the subject,
in connection with a magnetic per-
sonality and forceful delivery,
hold his hearers spellbound. Rus
sia's secret diplomacy in Man.
churia, Mongolia and Tibet since
1899 is given special attention.
Prominent educators, ministers
and newspapers give highest praise
to Mr.. Rich. His appearance here
tonight presents an opportunity
which no one should miss, especi-
ally as the price of admission
(Which is we'll worth three times
the amount) is only so cents for
adults and 25 cents for young
folks.

VILLAGE ELECTION
Two Tickets in the FieId-ChanaeS
In the Law.

Two tickets were filed with the
village clerk last Friday, and will
be on the official ballot for the vii.
lage election, to be held Tuesday,
April 4th. In the order OF their
filing, they are as follows:
CITIZENS TICKET.
For Village Trustees:
Geo. F. Mahoney,
J. ID. Morris,
w. D. Bailey,
D. w. Fitzwater,
S. G. Rhoades.
For Village Clerk, H. G. Ethel.
BUSINESS MEMS TICKET.
For Village Trustees:
w. J. Turner,
e. G. Lape,
Will Harley,
Geo. Crandal,
August Kunnecke.
The posted notices call for the
election only of five trustees. But
it seems that the Attorney Gen.
eral, in an opinion (given at the
request of the Governor) on an
election law passed by the Legis-
lature just before its adjournment,
holds that it calls for the election
of the clerk in villages. This law
also makes village elections bien-
nial, and this election will be for
a term of two years.
The polls open at 8 a. m., and
close at 7 p. m.
