HOLD EXCELLENT SMOKER

HOSUIAM, Oct. 20.-Although the
main event, scheduled for six rounds
of the smoker given Thursday night by
the Spokane club of the Eagles lodge
proved a fasco, the evenings enter
tainment was we'll worth the money,
all other bouts being of the highest
order. The boxing contests between
the Flying Dutchman and Sailor Pc
terson, proved to be a good affair, the
men doing good work. Young Rueter
and Davis met in three round go
that showed both men in good form
The six round bout between Jack
Lamb and Frank Mack was a farce.
Mack was outclassed and spent most
of the time on the floor He was not
in condition and Referee Corners call
ed the match off and refused to give
Mack any money for his work.

"CAME FROM MILWAUKEE"
Sam Bernard in His Famous German
Comedy Will Be at the Grand
Wednesday Night

Sam Bernard in his latest success,
musical comedy called "He Came
From Milwaukee," is scheduled for
an early production at the Grand
theater on Wednesday evening, Oct.
%, in which he is said to have found
the best vehicle of his career, for
the dissipation of dull care.
He Came From Milwaukee" is the
combined work of Mark Swan and
Edgar Smith, who stand sponsors for
it's thereto, Edward Madden, who
wrote the lyrics to fit the music
which was supplied by Ben M. Jerome,
l.. A. Hirsch and Melville Ellis. 1t
was great success in New York,
where it was played for long time
last year at the Casino theater, and
also this season. The story concerns
the arrival from the Wisconsin city,
played by Sam Bernard, of one Her
man Won Schnellenveing, brewer,
who in his travels through Europe
meets the Duke of Zurach. The Duke
for political reasons desires to re-
main incognito and induces the man
from Milwaukee to assume his role
The ensuing complications, particular
ly drumhead court martial gives
Bernard notable opportunity for his
special brand of fun-making. A gypsy
intriguer, loyal to the ducal party of
Zurach, conjoles the supposed duke
into leaving Ostend and proceeding
to his dutchy, where he will be crown.
ed in spite of the rebellion planned
by the republicans. An American
heiress thrust upon him by her title
hunting mother, falls in love with the
real heir to the throne and marries
him to save herself from the supposed
scion of royalty. The Milwaukee
brewer, lost in Zurach, works the card
game by which he was fleeced and
wins the uniform of soldier. Don
ming it he is arrested as spy and
sentenced to death. The gypsy then
proclaims him the Duke and he is
only saved from being proclaimed
ruler by the coming of the real
Zurchian.

A BELATED CORRECTION

In the Herald of August "a, COM
munication from pair of alleged ac
tors appeared without the knowledge
of the editor, critising the manager of
the Bijou theater, and blaming the
pianist for their own inability to act.
Had the editor not been absent from
his desk, the article would not have
appeared without an investigation,
and then it would not have appear
ed at all. When our attention was
called to it, the matter was carefully
looked into, and the conclusion reach
ed that the criticisms were wholly
undeserved The actors came to the
Bijou under a salary of $50 a week,
if they made good Their first per-
Torrance was termed rank by the
audience and everyone connected with
the theater, and Manager Chandler,
under the terms of the contract, dis.
missed them, and that is all there
was to it. The attempt to belttle
the piano playing of Miss Bendlin was
a cowardly move, that the Herald is
ashamed of, and it makes this public
apology to the estimable young lady,
who has pleasured the Aberdeen pub
lie with her performances on the piano
since her early teens.

MAYOR REFUSES PERMIT

HOOUIAM. Oct. 20.-Contractor
David Wilmington was today refused
a permit to move the old library build
ing across Seventh street, Mayor Har-
ry Ferguson declining permission be-
cause the building would demoraliZe
the telephone system in that section
of the city. A large 100 pair cable
is installed on Seventh street and 1t
would have been necessary to cut the
cable to move the structure. The build
ing was recently purchased from the
city by Il. r.. Dawdy for $1,000. He
plans to move it to his property, cor
ner and Fourth streets. He must

TIMBER CRUISE PROGRESSING

MONTESANO, Oct. 22.-The cruis,
ing of the timber lands of Chehalis
county far taxation purposes is pro-
crossing much more rapidly than was
expected when the large work was
commenced, and it is now thought that
the cruise will be completed by April
l, next, in time for use in the assess
ment for 1912 The cost of the work
will probably be 100000 or 100000
less than was anticipated. 1t is be-
lieved that enough timber lands have
been discovered that had been on the
rolls as logged lands to cover the cost
of the cruise in the taxes of very
few years.
