Nat c. Goodwin comes to the Spo-
kane Theater June 20 and 81, making
this his annual visit to Spokane. This
season he is playing his latest success,
1.-THE Genius"
Mr.. Goodwin is being mentioned
among the members of he theatrical
profession as the successor of the late
Joseph Jefferson as dean of the
American stage. James O'Donnell
Bennett, the critic, is quoted as say
ing:
Now that Joe Jefferson has died,
there is no worthier actor upon the
stage to wear the mantle of that dean
of the profession than Nat G. Good
win. Mr. Goodwin was intimately
acquainted with Jefferson and was
classed as one of his friends. They
both appeared in the first all star cast
of ''The Rivals" in the old Arch street
theater in New York city, near the
Jefferson birthplace where several
now prominent actors played in the
early days.
Mr.. Goodwin's engagement in Spo.
kane is being looked forward to as
one of the dramatic treats of the sea
son.

THEY HAVE GOT ENOUGH MONEY.
Chicago Firm Now Retired From
Business.


A plethora of money, made in such
quantities that the hearts ambition
was satisfied and the accumulation
of more became a tedious occupation,
is believed to be one reason for the
rumored dissolution of the present
firm of Sears, Roebuck & Co., prob
ably the largest mail order concern in

ing the proposition of New York
syndicate to transform the Chicago
company into $40,000,000 corporation
and make it joint corporation.
Eleven years ago the firm had capt.
tai of $150,0O0. 1t is said its business
today amounts to $5,000,000 month
in goods handled. Richard w. Sears,
head of the concern, was Is years ago
a poor telegraph operator on a rail-
road in Minnesota. He conceived the
idea of mail order business in that
section and started it.
His success was such that he moved
to Chicago IL years ago, and the

Tabby Watches Her Prey and Awaits
the Time TO Jump.
Laconia boasts of cat which COM
bines science with her natural instincts
of bird-hunting to rather a remarkable
degree.
Pussy is evidently fond of fresh live
English sparrows, and by experience
doubtless found that they are wary,
quick-motioned and hard to catch. She
also has discovered that when she
turns her back toward a flock of spar.
rows In the street they pay little or
no attention to her and approach quite
closely.
She has also discovered that the
plate-glass show window of a jewelry
store makes an excellent mirror under
certain conditions of light, and that by
hooking toward the window she can
watch the chippies in the street and at
the same time give the birds no reason
to suspect that she is interested in any.
thing except gold rings and jewelry
display.
The cats method Of obtaining Eng
, fish sparrow for dinner is to take her
position on the edge Of good view
of the reflection in the show window.
Sparrows come along the street every
few minutes, and, although at first
rather shy of the cat, they evidently
observe that she is paying no attention
to them, and gradually work up quite
close to her in their search for food.
Pussy keeps perfectly passive unit
one of the birds happens to stray with

ATHLETIC MEET JUNE %
Track and Field Contest at Spokane
Famous Athletes Of Northwest
Will All be There.

Sixty of the greatest track and field
athletes in the northwest are to gather
in Spokane on June 22nd to compete in
the greatest athletic meet ever known
in the northwest. OF these sixty men
at least forty Of them are stars and
one of them, Gilbert of the Multono-
NAH club, Portland, recently broke the
worlds record in the pole vault by
clearing the bar at IL feet six inches.
Another man, Carey, is University
of Montana boy and considered by Sui
livan, President of the A. A.. u, as the
coming worlds champion. Only q
sophomore in the University of Mon
tana he established the record of 10
fiat in the 100 yard dash with the meet
against Washington State College last
month. He will compete under the
colors of the Spokane Amateur Ath-
letic Club and will have opposed to
him the famous Kelly of the University
of Oregon who is also credited with
even time. Alpha Cox, the great west
ern Splinter, also credited with even
time, will be in the dash and some
thing that has never been seen on the
Pacific coast, three 10 second men op-
posed to each other in one race will
take place in Spokane on June %
Three distance men of Pacific coast
reputation and one whose fame has
spread even farther than that, will be
in the mile run. Coates, the w. s. G..
miller, who is credited with going the
distance in 4:32 in college meet in
Michigan, will run with Mathews and
Edminson of Idaho State College and
Parker of the University of Washing
ton. These men have all made the dis.
lance under 4:40 and the mile race at
this meet should be as exciting as the
440 yard dash.
In the quarter mile run will be seen
five men while not of particularly bril-.
liant quality, are 30 evenly matched
that the race is sure to be fought out
at the pace. Fawsett, Tholme and
Mallory of the s. A. A. @. are good fo1
81 seconds while Multononmah and
Seattle each have two men credited
with that time. One can readily SEE
what an exciting feature the the mile
relay, always the greatest of races, will
be when the five clubs send their foul
best quarter milers speeGing over thu
course with their club colors flying il
the breeze.
In the hurdles it is expected tina
Coates, the famous University of Ore
gon man, will for once in his life NEE
man who will make him finish at hi
best. Carey, the S. A. A. G. hurdle
is credited with being a little slowe

break his own record.
A big crowd is expected from ever.

Ambassador Reid and Members of the
Embassy Staff Welcomed the cou-

London, June 11.-After a voyage
which both declared to be the most
pleasant in their experience, Mr.. and
Mrs. Nicholas Longworth have reach
ed London, having journeyed from
Southampton, where they debarked
from the American line steamer st.
Louis, in beautifully appointed royal
carriage attached to the American line
special on the London & Southwest
ern. The weather was ideal and lie
country traversed by the train on the
short trip to London was looking it's
best, so that their first impression of
England, where they will spend the
first fortnight of their European out
ing, was most favorable. Only short
stop was made in Southampton. The
mayor of Southampton and the Ameri-
can consul there, Mr.. Swain, were the
first to greet the travellers on this soil.
On arriving in England Mr.. and Mrs.
Longworth were met by Ambassador
Reid and the members of the embassy
staff, Mrs. Reid, Mrs. and Miss Carter,
wife and daughter of the secretary of
the American embassy, and Mrs. Glib
bons, wife of the naval attache, while
at the entrance to the station several
hundred Americans living in London
| had gathered to welcome the couple.
Mr.. and Mrs. Longworth will be the
guests of the ambassador and his wife
at Dorchester house while in London,
Sunday afternoon was spent in rest
/ Tn he q "a
dinner, which was attended by the
members of the embassy staff. Mon
day Mr.. and Mrs. Longworth were
given an opportunity to see London
no engagement having been made fol
the day. In the evening they visited
the Alhambra with Mr.. and Mrs. Reid
for the first production of the new
ballet "L'Amour," the music for which
was written by Mrs. Thay Richie, ar
American.

enjoyed the Atlantic voyage, and join

sports and amusements incident to tn
trip. The weather from land to LAM
was splendid, the delay to the 81

At the Columbia.

"Are You a Mason?"-the three act
farce comedy that will be produced at
the Columbia theater during this
week by the Byron Douglas COM
pany, is justly pronounced one of the
greatest farces ever written, and
caused a great deal Of favorable COM
ment on the occasion of its presenta-
ton in Spokane two seasons ago.
Every line in the play is said to be a
healthy laugh, and following the sue
cessful production of prince Karp
last week, it should prove to be a
treat The play is put on with particu-
lar aptitude at this time, owing to the
fact that it's production will run dur
ing the time of the Masonic conclave
in Spokane.
While there is little plot to the
piece, interest does not lag on account
of this fact Amusing situations fol
low one another in rapid succession
and mirthprovoking comedy is the or
der during the three acts Of the play.

Lonqworths Are in England.

Mr.. and Mrs. Nicholas Longworth
have arrived in England on board the
American line steamer st. Louis. Mr..
Longworth refused to discuss political
topics and said he and Mrs. Longworth
had merely come on holiday and
looked forward to an enjoyable stay in
Europe. He said they would spend
a fortnight in London and then go to
Germany and perhaps to France, but
that their itinerary had not been def
nitely fixed. They probably will en-
bark for the United States about
August 4. Both Mr.. and Mrs. Long
worth are in good health. They had
delightful weather on the voyage and
made many friends aboard ship.
