GENE HUCKlNS
 HOME AGAIN

After nearly two years among the bright lights. or. rather before the footlights, to speak correctly, Gene Huckins has returned north again, having arrived here Sunday night. With him was Casey Bennett, erst- while packer of the Alaskan En, gineering commission, who has seen all the trials and tribulations of the road" and the vaudeville stage with Gene. And the only song that the two are now able to sing, although they remember the titles of all o1 the latest Outside hits, is "There's s No Place Like Home"
 Huckins and Bennett travelled through most of the eastern and middle states with their Alaskan vaudeville stunt They parted with the dog that they carried for the act at Kansas City, after he had cost them as much in transports ton, to quote Gene, as a new auto mobile. Since they closed their tour in Kansas City, in October, both have been in Seattle, where MT Huckins' family is at the present time. Both expect to enter the em ploy of the Engineering commission

When the great dramatization of
Jules Verne's 100000 Leagues Un-
der the Sea" is presented at the Rex

and evening, people of Bemidji and

and 25 cents for matinees and eve
nings, and there are 5000 feet in
the marvellous picture, which has
been widely heralded as one of the
most stupendOus undertakings in the
history of filmdom.
The pictures were taken through
the windows of cage that was low
cred to the bottom of the sea and
only one thickness of glass protected
the operator from the onrushing
shark.
- This is the first time in the
worlds history that live shark has
been photographed on mischief bent
in his native haunts. 1t is a sight
that sends the shivers up and down
ones spine and brings goose-pimples
to- the skin. To make things even
more interesting, the picture shows
armored divers walk across the bot
tom of the sea and give battle to
these monsters.

A MYSTERIOUS DTNOSAUR
Dinosaurs Ages Before
Advent
BY Garrett p. Serviss.

He redoubtable dinosaurs were
not all so very terrible. Some OF
L them were as innocent creatures
in their manner of life, if not in looks,
as have ever lived. For instance, pro-
lessor Henry F. Osborn describes in
the American Museum Journal species
Of dinosaur, the struthiomimus, or
.ostrichmimic," which. notwithstand-
ing its size. and partly because Of its
size, Git was something like l. feet
long,. would have been a most anus
ing beast to watch. especially when
it was running, with its long straight
tail tipped up high behind its long
neck stretched up high in front. its
short forelegs held in a helpless look
ing way against its breast, and its
two big long hind legs. really near the
middle Of its elongated form, working
like the walking beam OF an old fash
toned ferryboat in a hurry
In fact. the struthiOmlmus Is said
by professor Osborn to have been prop
ably the swiftest running reptile yet
known to have existed. He does not
think, however. that il quite equaled
the ostrich in speed. for the ostrlch
can outrun the swiftest horse But
the ostrich runs with considerable
seem to have been q ridiculous sight
when making the top of its speed How
ever. there was nobody TO laugh AT it,
since II lived millions Of years before
the laughing animal, man, came upon
the earth.
And in fact. there was nothing
amusing about the creatures running,
at least from its own point OF view It
was not chasing q golf ball or a
chicken, but was running TO save its
life. II lived in the time OF the huge
and terrible tyrannOsaurus. whose
mighty skeleton can be seen in the
American museum. a monster which
was not innocent in any sense Of the
word except IFS OWL and professor
Osborn suggests that the speed Of the
struthiOmimus may have been useful
to it in getting away from the flesh

But the discovery OF the later strutn-
iOmimuS, OF ostrich dinosaur, and es-
pecially OF a complete skeleton, found
in Alberta, and now to be seen in the
American museum, embedded in the
rock in which il has slept for. ages.
led TO a change Of opinion concerning
the probable habits Of the supposed
"Dird-rObber." It is now thought that
the latter also was a n-carnivorous
animal. not furnished with formidable
teeth. and accustomed to feed on vege-
tation-
Thus IL would seem that the swift
ness characteristic of this class of
dinosaurs. and made evident by their
structure, was developed to enable them
not TO catch but TO avoid being caught
The running habit IS regarded as hay

Although the struthiomlmus was IA

the giant tyrannOsaurus only a good

might perhaps have invited his family

and look AT the skeletons Of these an
