TACOMA

Tacoma entertained no doubt
as to the quality of "The Awaken
ing of Helena Richie" goodly
audience turning out to see Ro-
selle Knott and her company last
night.
"The Awakening of Helena
Richie" is deep, gripping drama,
presenting a problem that is COM
ing to be one of the greatest of
the nation. 1t shows the COM
mon law wife, through the pro-
per sort of environment, awaken
ing to herself.
Miss Knott's portrayal of He
lena was of that quality which
distinguishes the artist from the
commonplace workman. Every
one of those with Miss Knott has
thoroughly qualified as to his SUI
periority as an actor.
AS DIR. Lavender, Earl D. Dwire
portrays inimitably the fine old
character of a genuine minister,
and the child, Mayo Nethot, in the
part of David Allison, displays a
surprising ability. Lloyd Pryor,
the lover, is well placed in the
hands of Henry Hall. No better
person than Charles Schad could
have been found for the character

TAXES

PUYALLUP, Sept. 26.-The
city council has adopted an ordi-
nance forcing brewing concerns
doing business in Puyallup to pay
an occupation tax of. SIS month,
making total of $50 yearly rev.
enue for the city. An ordinance
changing the automobile speed
limit from to IL miles an hour
was passed and a motorcycle pa
trolman appointed to see the law
is enforced to the letter, particu-
larly during fair week.
Protest has been made in q
letter to the city council by Ezra
Meeker, the pioneer, against the
changing of the names of Stewart
md Meeker streets and Pioneer
venue. This was done last
spring. The aged pioneer says
these streets were presented by
The pioneers themselves to per-
petuate the names of those who
were the first to settle here and
in his belief the change of names
S an injustice to them.
Mrs. William Overfield, her
laughter, Miss Josephine, and
William Haggerty, all of Puyallup,
were injured last night when
struck by an automobile driven
by II. H. Beeden Of Tacoma. The
injured party was returning from
Orting In a wagon when struck by
the machine. The wagon was
smashed to pices. Beeden took all
to Puyallup in his machine and
they were attended by DR.. Run
