about baseball.
 The sheer wonder of the thing is Graw himself is many miles away, yet there lle Is before you.
 All week long there will be given attractions of just that high charae- ter. The wonderful possibilities of talking pictures have not yet been realized by Bridgeporters, but they will realize before this week is over at the Lyric. Like every great inven- tion many believe that these talking machines are just a com abination of the phonograph and the picture ma chine. That might do for the early days in the motion picture art but today they are produced by a most ingenious and wonderful apparatus which absolutely synchronizes'' the pictures with the sounds.
 Tn this way it is possible to repro duce a minstrel show which in fact will be done. You can see a great singer coma upon the stage and when she opens her lips the sound comes forth absolutely as if the singer was standing before you and not a pie ture. These talking pictures are the greatest step in the perfection of the motion picture art since the invention of motion pictures themselves They hold one spellbound and thrilled with their wonder from the time the per- formance starts until it's close.
 A most remarkable program is pos sfble with the Edison pictures and no theatregoer who likes either the dra- nas the comedy, the minstrel show, vaudeville or any of the other classes of entertainment can afford to miss seeing and hearing this new addition to the amusement ranks All week long at the Lyric.

gress, he announces his candidacy
for denomination. As a member
of the committee on alcoholic
liquor traffic he has an opportun-
ity to do some good work for the
temperance cause, and his CON-
ment on the state campaign is
particularly interesting. He says:
Il had expected to be in Idaho
by this time but the large program
laid out for us by the President
will make it necessary for US to
remain here until late in the sum-
mer. I am looking forward with
interest to the platform OF our
party which will be formulated on
the Both, and trust there will be
incorporated therein provision
for state wide prohibition, cur.
tailment of the tax levy, the sell
ing of larger portion of our state
lands each year, and plank favor
ing legislation which will enable
the state to cooperate with the
federal government in resuscita
ting the Carey Act projects which
are languishing because of th'
failure of the contracting compan
les to furnish water to the settlers
