TACOMA, June 8.-Frank Gets

THEATRICAL REVIEW
By William S. Brewer

NEW YORK, June Sc. H. Soth-
ern and Julia NARROW opened a three
weeks run at the Academy of Music
in Shakespearean tragedy with a pre-
sentation of Romeo and Juliet"
l(ecollections of the classic tragedy
played at the Knickbocker during the
season of 1904 by these two great ar
lists, who continued it in their rep
ertoire for three seasons, and who
then separated for two seasons, il
bound to bring UP some comparisons
and contrasts, and they show that Ju-
liza Marlowe is the gratest Juliet of
her day. Last Monday night she re-
called the time, nearly 20 years ago,
when, a slip of girl, she ventured
the role and made good in her girlish
reading. Time saw her develop the
character, and last Monday night she
revealed how she had intensified the
role of the all-starred heroine. She
has warmed and nutured it with her
great art, until now the passages that
in the old days were marked for her
tragical conception only are now rich
in sentiment and tender strength.
Souther has made one of his greatest
heroes in Romeo. and there is vein
of his Hamlet in the reading, Som
breness, tragedy, hopeless, despair are
there, when a more romantic, hopeful
lover would brighten his audience.
There is nothing artificial. He is the
great son of Montague, but he learns
the Franciscans great rule, TO love
moderately with a tragical sense that
dampens rather than encourages. Yet
1t was great play; so great that
through the six acts, carrying ID
scenes, the great audience never lost
the thread, and every curtain brought
forth the principals. Marcutio, friend
to Romeo. played by Frederick lewis.
was one OF the bright creations. The
romatic vein of the character was
brought out with q grace and force

to get extra speed out of the beasts. IL
may have been then that mankind
sought other beasts of burden. one OF
the earliest chosen, doubtless, was the
camel.
Now, the camel, judged by the au-

has strength and endurance, can
brave the heat and never runs down

building of the Siberian railroad they
were used to a great extent to import
goods to Russia through Asia In
Australia they are used in the gold

The sledge is one of the most prim-

Upon the sledge goods are packed. If
one is tired he cna squat on the bag

Corn Shfedders Are Dangerous.

A special sent out from
Concord Saturday says: En-
nest Untz, the young son of
G. J.. Untz, of No. 2 township
sustained a serious injury
yesterday afternoon while
feeding a corn shredder. He
was passing up the stalks
when his right arm was
caught in the machine, and
before relief could be given
him four fingers and the mas
jor portion of his hand were
torn off. 1t is quite probable
that his hand will have to be
taken off entirely as the bones
were pretty badly shattered
In another portion Of the
county and within a mile Of
this city, on the farm of M:
l.. Brown Bros. Doc Endy
sustained a broken arm while
operating a shredder about
he same time that Untz was
injured.
