"The Girl From the u. S. A.

In late review of theatrical produc-
tions by prominent dramatic critic,
the play "The Girl from the U. S. A."
received a full measure of praise.
The story deals with an American
girl who has been placed in an aristo
cratic convent in Paris, France, that
her education might receive an ultra
"Finish." There she has formed
deep and lasting friendship with vi
vienne de Voltone, French girl.
The play opens with deep intrigue,
both social and political, on the part of
the Turkish Ambassador to France.
The girl follows her abducted friend in
to the innermost recesses of the sacred
ly guarded harem of a Turkish pasha,
and in the guise of new "Favorite"
is terrorized to find that the very Turk
whose scheme she is trying to frus-
trate, has fallen in love with her. Only
by shrewd diplamacy can she save her.
self from the clutches of an unlicensed
barbarian. And later in the ceremon
ious mazes of Chinese society, her ma
tive wit saves the day for herselt and
friends.
Although the plot leads one among
scenes of oriental splendor, the tone of
the play remains vividly and thorough
| ly American in sentiment. The eli
MAKES are thrilling and unexpected,
and the comedy of several novel char
acters is as welcome as it is diverting.
There are some splendid musical num-
bers added to an already complete en-
tertainment, and altogether the Girl
from the U. s. A., is somebody you
will want to be acquainted with when
she appears at the Emporium Opera
House on Monday evening, Feb. 21st

WATER SYSTEM

Z A delegation Of Cannondale
water consumers, cut off some
weeks ago by the Arthur D. Jones
water monopoly, left the floor of
the city council last night with
broad smiles on their faces.
The reason therefor was that
final action had been taken by the
city council forever liberating that
region of the city from the domino
tion Of Jones and assuring to Can
nondale and vicinity the extension
of the city water mains that has
been the subject of many visits to
the city hall in the last few weeks.
An order was adopted by the city
council requiring the water depart
ment to proceed to lay steel mains
in all streets in that section pre-
viously agreed upon. The improve
ment will cost $S3,S56, on which
the property owners have already
guaranteed an annual water reve-
nue. of $776S.

Article No. 2.

AFtICIe NO. z.
The government of France is SO
anxious to please the trades unions
that Paris and III other cities have
established bourses de travail,
where they can meet to organize
and plan strikes!- Over fifty-two
cities, too, have opened employ
ment agencies, but they are in.
ferior to the German. The labor
unions have ranking privilege in
communicating with the govern.
ment.
The government has also encour.
aged cooperation by appropria.
tons. There are over 1900 cooper.
atives of various kinds, including
many bakeries.
When the unions support any
party, they support the socialist
party. But the anarchists-and
there are lot of them in the
unions-don't believe in such every.
day quiet things as voting. They
believe in direct action" Direct
action consists of two things: the
general strike collectively, and
soldering" on the employer indi-
vidually.
There are over 100000 unionists
in France, and they are getting
stronger all the time.

CITY TO GET THOSE ELECTROL|ERS

board of public works to permit
their installation was the key that
unlocked the situation. z
There was still a demand for de.
lay by Councilman Mohr, until the
Washington Water Power Co. could
submit a design it had in view, but
the council was tired of delay and
glad to end the controversy, and
adopted an order approving the
Davenport lamp and ordering the
board of public works to permit its
installation.
The final action of the council
differs from that contemplated by
the boosters for the electroliers in
that it is not compulsory on the
part of the property owners to in
still the lamps, and the city is not
called upon to pay for the current.

HOME FOR BOYS

A home for boys is the latest
plan of the Y M. G. A. Believing
that boys go wrong principally
through lack of home influences
and suitable place to spend the
evenings, the association now plans
to obtain house, put it in charge
of woman who will take a genu-
inc interest in the young men, and
make it as home-like and comfort
able for the inmates as possible.
"Of course, the boys will be ex-
pected to pay something" said H.
H. Moore, secretary of the boys
division, yesterday, but we will en-
deavor to provide sum of SIS or
500 a month for the maintenance
of the place."

Sweden's ruler, too. Born princess
of Denmark, she began her con-
quests by marrying King Haakon
of Norway, whose death left her
queen of Norway. The death of
her son gave her the throne of Den
mark, and she won the throne of
Sweden at Falkoping. The union of
the three countries continued for
nearly 800 years, and Norway and
Denmark remained together until
1914.

Latest developments In the mys-

that murder and not suicide was
responsible for his demise.
At first it was believed that the
dead man had fallen or jumped into
the river, but it has now been
learned that Garcia had at least
one deadly enemy, and it is be-
lieved that he came to his death
as the result of a knife thrust be-
