would go for CrOale and Coffee.
Coffee said he was for the
mothers pension. He wanted to
build better engineering school
at w. U. and a better domestic
science school at Pullman. He
would fight against the present
unjust method of assessing rail-
ways in the state and would work
for legislation to cut out the de-
linquent tax certificate scalpers.
He declared really the woman s
pension for wothers would not
cost any more than it costs society
now.
Alice Yarnell, socialist candi-
date, also caught the audience.
She is running in the seth dis
trict. She was for mothers PEN
sion and lot of progressive

gressive candidate for state school
commissioner, boosted the moth
er's pension. He said We should
pay mothers not as charity but
because they were rearing citizens
for the state and it was due them.
j. w. Bryan, progressive can
didate for congressman at large,
said the only thing worth while
Is to work for humanity and the
socialists and progressives ought

FINE SITE SAYS
GENERAL WOOD

"Fine site-one of the best
l have seen," said General Leon
ard Wood after he had looked
over the Nisqually prairie as
available fora brigade post, ma
neuver ground and general army
headquarters for the Northwest.
THE location Is IDEAL" he con-
tinued.
But that is as far as he would
go. Whether he will recommend
the Tacoma site or some other he
refused to say, but urged Tacoma
to get busy with the proper au-
thorities at Washington.
General Wood after viewing
the site was taken for a ride up
the mountain road and reached
the Nisqually power plant just at
dark last evening. He was brou ght
back to the Union club for din
ner, leaving for Portland later.

PANTAGES

A big feature which has been
on the Pantages circuit Just long
enough to wear off the "newness"
will open here Monday after
noon when Miss Hazel Bess
Laugenor, the first woman to
swim the Golden Gate, will be
seen here in her second week in
vaudeville. Miss Laugenor made
her debut in Vancouver last week
and was the sensation of a re-
markedly strong bill. The act
opens with motion pictures of
Miss Laugenor's sensation feat of
swimming the Golden Gate
From her initial dive into the
choppy, storm tossed waters,
where the tide runs at the rate
of IL miles an hour, until she
lands on the opposite shore,
pulled back by a strong under
toe, the pictures are exciting.
Although from her feats, an
audience may be prepared for a
very Amazon of woman, Miss
Laugenor is both petite and pref
ty. Following the motion pic
lures, she giving what is said to
be most charming water pam
tomime and then follows the real
act. Huge motors pump water
into a glass tank at the rate of
l 5 miles an hour. Against this
current Miss Laugenor swims,
showing her proves in the wa
ter.
Millard Brothers,, known in
vaudeville as Bill and Bob, will
present burlesque bicycle act.
"DeVere of the Chorus" is the
title of one of the best sketches
ever seen upon the Pantages cir
cult.

six Feet of Comedy" are re-
ported to have been riots of

theaters.

he pulls the strings and brings
all to the happy conclusion. The
company is the same which pro-
duced the play all through the
season in New York.
The story is told by the author
in the following couplet on the
prog :am:

The most remarkable dramatic
event of the theatrical season
will be the engagement of George
Broadhurst's biggest play of our
time, Bought and Paid For"
which will appear here at the
Tacoma Friday and Saturday of
next week, under the direction of
William A. Brady, Ltd. The
mere fact that the new comedy
drama is rapidly approaching its
500th consecutive performance
in New York city, is an assurance
that it must be substantial in
fibre, consistent in story, and
fresh and natural, no less in the
drawing of its characters than in
the flow of it's dialogue.

One of the Oldest graduates to ar
rive was George B. Cross, the only
surviving member of the class of

Without others of his class to greet,
Mr. Cross is lonely reunionist; but
he is being cordially received by 9TH
err sons and daughters of Wisconsin.

with suggestion that the convention

for the reading of the call by Secre
