"BEN-HUR'
To Fill February II, Is, 10 and 20, at
the Spokane Theater. Suolane


Towering triumphantly as the most
massive and picturesque as well as the
most impressive dramatic spectacle in
the history of the world, "Ben-Hur''
will seek new honors at the Spokane
theater, Spokane, Wash, on Wednesday
evening, February II, where it will
remain for an engagement of four
evenings, together with a special mat
inee performance, on Saturday, Feb
ruary 20.
OF all the spectacular productions of
modern times none has been credited
with so long run of prosperity as this
great and popular dramatic spectacle.
"Ben- Hur" is today crowned with a
record of more than $500 performances
in America and 200 in London, in a
little over nine years, and has been
seen by more than seven millions peo-
pie. The success of the play is cred
tied to the religious sentiment that
prevails in the theme, making it par
ticularly attractive to the non-theater-
goer, who as rule avoids the play
house owing to religious scruples.
In order to take care of out-of-town
patrons for "Ben-HurD the Spokane
theater management will fill mail or
ders in accordance with date of theil
receipt, when accompanied by remit
lance. The scale of prices viii range
from so cents to $780, Seats will &c

that has followed the announcement OF
its prospective appearance is any indi-
cation.
Band Master Puts prompt accept
ance of the invitation EXTENDED to him
and his 40 musicians by the Grand
Army posts of Alameda county was
gratifying alike to those who hazarded
the hope of securing the services of
the distinguished soldier band and to
those who had heard it in the Greek
theater last summer and have since
been denied the pleasure OF enjoying
its music.
The full artillery band will respond
when the band master raises his baton.
The Eucalyptus amphitheater and the
surrounding park Will be magnificently
lighted.
Seats are being built in the amphi-
theater to accommodate 5000 persons
and arrangements are being made for
special car service from Oakland,
Berkeley and Alameda direct to Pied
mont park
The program for the evening will be
largely patriotic. By special request
the Third artillery's famous descriptive
battle piece, The Ambuscade," will be
played. This piece describes in music
the approach of the enemy, the fire of
the picket lines, the clash of battle. the
retreat of the enemy and the wild en-
thusiasm of the victorious troops. For
its rendition of this composition the
Third artillery band won recognition
as the best band of the American army.

take much stock in Voyle's announce

in CITY ELECTION
Foes of Machine Rule Predict
Victory at Berkeley Polls
Today

BERKELEY, May 21.-The second
municipal election under the new city
charter will be held tomorrow, and a
victory for the good government forces
of this city is predicted. While the
first election, at which Beverly L.
Hodghead the good government candi-
date for mayor, was elected, was spirit
eddy contested, the election of R. A.
Berry, Christian Hoff, w. F. Mcclure
and e., B. Norton for councilmen to-
morrow is virtually conceded. The
fight for school directors is being
warmly waged, and it is around these
officers that the fight in this election
will center. A large vote will be
cast.
Eight nominees are in the field for
councilmen and eight for school di-
rectors They are: For the city coun-
civ. +. Mcclure. town engineer; e.
3. Norton, vice president of the South
Berkeley bank; Christian Hoff, former
member of the board of trustees; r. A.
Berry. real estate broker; e. Q. Turner,
superintendent of streets; Jesse V.
Mendenhall, town clerk; II. j. Banker,
contractor; James O. Davis, attorney.
For School directors-Mrs. Elinor Car
Isle, club and society woman; Roy j.
Young. real estate broker and member
of the present board; DR.. E. L. Loring,
dentist and member Of the present
board; A. T. Sutherland, book keeper
and member of the present board; DR..
Roy I. Woolsey, dentist; Dr. c. q. Ellis,
physician; DR.. W. c. Morgan, professor
of chemistry of the university; J. w.
Flynn, manager of the University Press.
The last effort of the push was a
futile attempt TO make capital out of
the fact that Auditor NJ l.. Hanscom
was not upheld by Judge Harris in
the contention over the payment of
$4,000 as the first installment on the
proposed incinerator site at the foot
of. Harrison street.
