Who hasn't shed tears over Lady Isabelrs sad plight and choked back sobs over the tragedy enacted in
 East Lynne? There never was Q repertoire company that did not include East Lynne" on it's pro gram years ago, It all came back last night when this famous story was picturized and presented by the Fox Film Company. The gold cn-haired Isabel, of the stage was missing but in her place was Theda Bara who ran the gamut of the emotions described for this famous heroine. The Orpheum was packed to greet Miss Bara too, and, as she has been SO long in the public eye Gs an accomplished yillainess that we looked 10 see if she would not pull a concealed knife or a can of poison from under her coat But she did not She had shed her vampirish ways for this occasion and took over the chastenCd, sub- dued role of the sad Isabel. It is a very good production. The cast is an excellent one containing many film favorites. The cinema has demonstrated again and again its power to overshadow the stage, when scenic effects are required and e East Lynne" as a photoplay shows this. Theda Bara will be seen again in this only tonight.

MINE SAFETY
 TO BE TAUGHT
 TO FOREIGNERS
United States To Issue Circulars in All the Foreign Tongues To
 Benefit Classes

WASHINGTON, March 26. Cir. culars in foreign languages and em- bodying lessons in first aid to the injured are to be distributed by the Bureau of Mines in furtherance of it's safety first campaign among the million foreign miners in the United States. The first of series of cir culars for the benefit of foreign CTS have been issued in Italian Polish and Sloyak.
 In announcing the plan, Secretary Lane held that it "is not only an ad- ditional effort toward the safety of the miners, but is also step in the line of good citizenship, There is no possibility of making a good citizen out of dead miner and our first duty in behalf of good citi- zenship is to help prevent miners from being killed"
 To make the circulars of educa- tional value and to teach and en- courage foreigners to learn their English language, the foreign trans. lation is printed on one page and the equivalent in English on the other.

COLLEGES WANT HAMMER THROW
 IN THE SPORTS
Has Been Ruled Out of Northern Schools but California Says
 Keep 1t in.

Managers of track teams in the Coast Conference have struck snag in their efforts to perfect plans and events for the coming meet to be held in Seattle May 19, according 10 Manager J. Arthur Younger of the University of Washington.
 Dr. A. D. Browne of Oregon Ag- ricultural College O received word from the two California colleges re- Qucsting that he make a stand for the inclusion of the hammer throw in the Pacific Coast Conference meet. Dr. Browne has sIgnified his willingness to defer to the wish es Of the Southerners, but Coach Bill Hayward of Oregon and the coaches and managers of Washing ton and Washington State College deny the rights of the Southern schools to include the hammer throw in the big meet.
 This event was eliminated from the Northwest Conference meets be- cause of the danger which attends it and has not been used for several years. As result no men have been trained in its use and could not be trained before the May date if 1t was decided to risk it's entry.
 Younger has signified his willing ness to compromise the case and permit any school desiring to use the hammer even, provided they will eliminate either the discus or jaye- lin throw, thus evening the number of points possible for each team ot win. If California and Stanford were permitted to use all three and Washington and the other Northern teams used but two they would be giving their opponents a handi- cap of several points. The argu- ment probably will be settled at q meeting some time before May 19.

Charlie ChapIin ct the Coliseum.

Charlie Chaplin packed them in at the Coliseum last night in "The Rink, a comedy filled with abSO- lutely new business. the scenes of which are laid in an ice skating rink and a restaurant. There are some very clever feats of footwork by Charlie Chaplin and he is some nifty skater. The plot is a slender one but there is some quite capable bits of comedy that bubble forth in good measure.
 The dramatic feature is "The Devil at His Elbow" and is about one of the strongest temperance stories screened even including Ten Nights in a Barroom." Dor othy Green, who has been seen here before. and Clifford Bruce are the stars. and both are good. The pro duction is a Metro and both attrac- tions will run for two more nights.

TRY THIS COOKER
DIRECTIONS FOR PREPARATION
OF KITCHEN UTENSIL.
With 4 Small Expenditure Of Money
and Time This Most Useful Ap-
plianee Is at the Command
Of Any Housewife.

A fireless cooker capable Of giving
satisfactory service can be made in
the home at slight expense, If direc-
tions prepared by the Office Of home
economics of the department Of agri-
culture are followed.
The outside of the cooker may be
a tightly built wooden box. an old
trunk. a small barrel, large butter or
lard tirkin or tin, or large galvanized
iron bucket with close-ftting cover.
In general, well-built, conveniently
sized box is perhaps most satisfactory,
though the cookers entirely encased in
metal have the advantage Of being fire.
proof.
If box is to be used, Its size will
depend on the size of the cooking ket-
tie to be used In 1t and on whether
there are to be one or two compart-
ments. 1t must be large enough to
allow for at least four inches of pack
ing material all around the nest" in
which the cooking kettle is to be
placed. For the sake of cleanliness
and convenience the nest should be
lined with metal and should be a tritie
extra source of heat. such as a hot
brick or plate. is to be used, a metallic
lining for the nest is imperative. For
this purpose galvanlzed-iron or other
metal bucket may be used or, better
still. tinsmith can make n lining of
galvanized iron or zinc which can be
provided with rim to cover the pack
ing material. In case no hot stone or
plate Is to be used in the cooker. the
lining can be made of strong card
board.
For the packing and insulating ma
terial a variety of substances may be
used. Asbestos and mineral wool are
good and have the additional advan-
tage that they do not burn. Ground
cork (such as is used in packing
Malaga grapes). hay, excelsior, Span
ish moss, wool. and crumpled paper
may also be used satisfactorily. OF
