The famous Lyman Howe
travel pictures will come to the
Tacoma theater for four days
starting May 80. This is the
greatest collection of motion pic
lures in the world and the films
are shown in natural colors and
with all the sound effects, special
mechanical outfit and crew being
carried for the purpose.
The versatility of the distin-
guished Russian actress, Madame
Nazimova, is remarkable. Those
OF the theatsrgoers who saw her
last year or at the beginning of
the present season in the comedy,
1.-THE Marionettes," narveled at
the lightness and the daintiness
of her touch and those who have
seen her in her latest success,
bella Donna" In some of the
intense scenes. Madam Nazimo-
va is of course Bella Donna. "Pel-
la Donna" with NaZimova has
been one of the sensations Of the
New York stage this season. Chas.
Frohman will present Madame
Nazimova in Bella Donna" at
the Tacoma theater soon.

DISTRICT COURT
June Term viii 0s In Session Nsxt
Monday@27 Criminal and ~
Civil casss on the Docket

District court will convene next
Monday morning at 10 O'Clock for
the regular June term. with the jury
summoned In attendance and Judge
Essex on the bench. Although
there are twenty-seven criminal and
fcrty-one civil cases on the docket
It Is Thought that It will be a very
short session. as there are few cases
OF any great Importance The most
important case Ia probably that OF
the state against Eva Blanchard. who
is charged with having administered
poison to her husband at their home
In Fowler In December OF last year.
and Frank +. Caldwell who Is charg.
ed with being an accessory to the
crime, Mrs, Blanchard was arrest.

month after the death OF her hus.
band. and at the time was stopping
In rooming house In company with
Caldwell. who was formerly well
AuoNH U"iI payer afo"Hu rpWi'i %
Both have been IN the county Jail
since early In January. Caldwell's
father visited his son In the county
Jail few months ago. and has since
Jled. and II Is said that his death
was hastened by his sons trouble.
Other cases listed on the docket
are seven informations against j. T..
Godding. the ex.banker. who is now
prospering In the state OF Washing
ton. and all OF these have been car
ried over from term to term ever
since Godding was first indicted.
There are also two cases against
Ira Todd and two against II. q,
Todd for selling plain booze to a
minor-that is. IA. was minor at
the time OF the alleged offense. but
has probably long since Reached
mans estate.
None OF the other cases are OF
much Importance. and good many
Of them will probably he noiiicd or

That Big Investment by French

Attracting Attention.

The following is from the editorial
column OF the Cincinnati Enquirer:
No portion of our country is making
swifter or greater strides In develop
ing power OF rivers and transforming
that into the power of electricity than
some States of the South Tennessee
the Cnrolinas. Alabama. Georgia and
others are rapidly justifying the most
hopeful predictions of former years
The abundant waters emerging from
unfailing springs of mountains and
foothills are being harnessed, while yet
swift In their dashing brightness. TO
furnish horse power by the millions
While In the cities and other commu-
mites of the lower lands of several
states the belching stacks tell of the
consumption of the Goals of the Vir-
ginias and other States in the produc-
ton of steam for the turning of the
wheels. there are already great plants
and others are being erected to pro-
ducc from the rushing waters of nu-
merous rivers the cleaner power Of
electricity to be used in great fac
tories at the dams and those at dis
lance. fed through the wires.
We read Of the rapid advance Of
India In multiplication of spindles to
compete with Lancashire In production
OF cotton fabrics. and then to our own
south. where numerous great factories
already In operation at a dozen point 3
tell of activities in the same line AMI
others are rapidly rising to join their
voices in the harmonics of great in
dustries.
One of the greatest enterprises in
our country for developing electric
power from water power, If. indeed, it
is not to DO the very greatest OF all
thus far. next to Niagara. has been
commenced on the Yadkin River at
Whitney. n. c. This historic river mar
rows at this point from 1900 feet to
sixty feet, where its deep torrent
rushes through gorge. Here It is
to be harnessed for production Of at
least 10000 horse power. The cement
alone for the dams and other features
of this plant Will cost over $1,000, 900,
being one OF the largest orders fol-
lowing those for the New York tun-
nels. The power house will he about
GOO feet by 100 feet. The greatest por-
ton of the power Will run vast alumni :
