THE PRINCE OF TONIGHT"
Henry Woodruff in This Gorgeous
Musical Fantasy at the Grand
Next Saturday Night

Gorgeous costumes, dazzling spec
tacular effects, high class music, stun
ming show girls and dashing broilers
from the background of that most
popular of musical comedies, The
Prince of Tonight which will be the
attraction at the Grand theater, Sat
urday March 9.
The cast is headed by Henry Wood
ruff, who is seen in his happiest mood
in the title role. The story tells of
the adventures of Mr.. Woodruff as
a stranded college youth who falls in
love with and is snubbed by beau
tiful heiress whom he meets while
acting as life saver at THE Break
ers," Palm Beach, She coquettes
with him and then informs
him that minus wealth and position
he has no chance at all. But he is
befriended by an aged gardner who
has learned mysteries of magic from,
his plants and who turns him into a
prince of a mythical land for a night
1t is understood that if the prince
fails to receive kiss from the right
girl before the night is over, he is
to die with the arrival of dawn. The
manner in which he escapes the fate
threatened him and wins the right
girl gives te authors, Adams, HOugh
and Howard, unusual opportunity to
link modern characters with magic
and mythical situations. The trans
formation scenes, the artistic group
ing of the host of pretty girls includ
ed in the chorus, and the gorgeous
stage pictures, will prove a revela-
ton.

MARINE INVENTION
Victor II. Street Has Secured Patent
on Ship Signal Device that
Makes for Safety

Victor H. Street, manager of the
American Pacific Whaling company
at Bay City, has secured patent
upon device for signaling from the
bridge of steamship to the engine
room, that for safety, accuracy and
record will doubtless come into gen.
eral use as soon as its superiority
over the devices in present use is
known.
The signal apparatus now used are
all operated mechanically, and fire.
quently get out of order, through the
stretching or breaking the connect
ing wires. Nor do they make record
of the orders transmitted, an import
ant matter in case of wrecks or acct
dents when the responsibility needs
to be fixed.
The Street machine is operated by
electricity, supplied either from q
dynamo or dry battery, and is really
a recording ship telegraph. The cap
tain on the bridge simply throws a
lever, giving the order, fast or slow,
ahead or astern, and the apparatus
in the engine room flashes several
electric lights, a pointer on dial in
dicates the order and bell rings to
call attention. When the signal is
made, the apparatus is locked auto
matically in that position. thus. in
case of accident, showing the last
order for speed and direction, and
absolutely fixing the responsibility
for the same. Mr.. Street has been
working on the device for the past
two years, and has just recently been
informed that his patent had been
allowed.

athletics in all forms and in all
places are good in spite Of some
bad elements and some bad con-

good in spite Of its electric

Outside of this denomination there

ELMA, March 6.-Preparing for
new settlers with the coming of the
hOrdes headed for Washington on the
colonist trains; arranging for the
county fair to be held next fall, for
which buildings and race tract must
be built; awaiting finishing touches
to turn on a new $4,000 municipal
water supply, and filled with pride
up-to-date high school, which cost
just now. The decision of the Che.
halls County Fair association that
Elma shall be the permanent place
for the holding of the annual fair
has added considerably to the import
ance of this community, in the opin
ion of the boosters, and next falls
show is to be a most noted agricul-
tural event, according to plans al.
ready laid.
The association will erect the nee
essary fair buildings. At present it
is $1,000 in dept, put the Aberdeen
boosters have promised that this will
be wiped out before the next fair.
Elma will provide the site for the
fair grounds free and fence the
grounds and construct a race track.
There has been raised $4,000 to pay
for these improvements.
Expect Rush Of Settlers
The local bosters are calling at
tention to the Importance to this Sec
ton of the opening of the Panama
canal, when, because it is virgin
country, the North Pacific Coast will
reap the greatest benefit in the acquir-
ing of new people to settle up it's
lands. 1t is urged that after the open
ing of the canal European immigrants
can be landed at Hoquiam and Aber-
deem, sister cities of Elma, for only
$40 more than the fare to New York.
These immigrants, the developers OF
this section point out, must be Civ
en- opportunities to make their homes
on the coast. Elma proposes to be on
hand with plenty of opportunities.
The people hereabouts are also pre-
pairing for the army of newcomers
from the Eastern states during the
next few years. as it is felt that great
land development is sure outcome.
Gasoline Car Appreciated
The gasoline car that runs between
McCleary and the Grays Harbor
towns of Aberdeen and Hoquiam, by
way of Elma, has proved a great sue
cess. Almost every day good crowds
60 to McCleary, and the early morn.
ing run to the harbor is popular with
people having business at Montesano,
the county seat. The car is capable
of carrying 90 passengers and is
geared to run 60 miles an hour. There
is a baggage and express compart-
ment. Much milk is carried on the
train to the harbor.

Her Report.

I have been to a suffragist meeting
And heard Mrs. Solomon speak.
She's a perfect delight.
And know that she's right:
Every word that she said bears repeating
There's a dimple just here In her cheek.
She Is slender and fair and quite pretty
And not over thirty, l guess.
With a retrousse nose
And a wonderful pose.
I am going to join her committee
She Is surely an artist In dress.
The crowd? There was standing room
only.
They gave her unstinted applause.
She made quite hit
With her logic and wit.
The only man there looked so lonelyl
Yes, I'm q convert to the cause.
She wore q Partisan creation.
She said? I've forgotten all that.
But I'm sure 1t was true.
And the ballots our due.
Its denial's a real deprivation
She wore such a love Of hat!
