DODGE PICTURES COMING.
Film Of Famous death Valley" Car
Hero February 20.2l.

Local motorists look forward with
considerable interest to the Death
Valley Dodge" pictures. which are to
be shown at the Ray theater Febru-
ary 1921. They were obtained by
the Rose-Neppel Auto company from
Dodge Brothers and will give Olym-
pia an opportunity to see the "unbe-
lievable" in motoring. The Death
Valley Dodge's fests sound almost
impossible until enacted ON the
screen, a. they must have been en-
acted in reality.
The film provided by Dodge Broth
ers for the benefit Of their dealers,
patrons and the public in general
leaves little opportunity for imagin-
alton. While not taken in Death VAL
ley. where the car got its name, the
picture provides a realistic view of
other trips, almost equally hazardous,
through deserts and mountains of the
West. Sands, rocks and rivers form
no barrier. Mountains are made
mere mole hills.
The scenery throughout is in turn
awe-inspiring and magnificent. Crit
les have termed the film one of the
most remarkable pictures yet pro-
duced.

WES1S|DE TOWER HELD
USELESS; WORK STOPPED
Council Seeks Delay After Report
on Survey by Seattle
Expert.

Instructions to stop work on the
Westside tower we're issued by the
city council at a special meeting
Thursday evening, following a re-
port of a survey Of the local water
works by Councilman r. H. Thom-
son of Seattle. city engineer Of that
city for years and an expert on water
works systems, in which he stated
that the tower will not be satisfac-
tory because the booster pump will
not be able to force water up to It..
City Engineer Wood and the city
water committee were instructed by
the council to confer with the con-
tractor. w. A. Weller, with reference
to delaying the work until a more
detailed report can be made and q
definite decision reached. Mr.. Thorn
son particularly urged the council to
make q careful survey Of the entire
water system and to know just what
1t is doing before 1t proceeds on any
particular improvement.
The Westside tower was ordered
built by the old council on plans pro
posed by former City Engineer J. B.
Weddell and is to be perched 100
feet in the air on one Of the highest
points of the Westside. Consider
able work has been done on 1t. En-
gineer Thomson declares that the
booster pump will not raise the water
more than half the distance up the
feed pipe to the tank. He expressed
the opinion that the idea Of a big
tower is "all wrong" and said ut
would be far easier and far less ex-
pensive to put in tower, say about
20 feet high. on the high ground on
the Westside and let the present sys-
te mill it without pump"

TO TRY VAN DELL
EARLY NEXT MONTH
OISON'S MURDERER TO FIGHT
CONVICTION ON FIRST DE-
GREE CHARGE.

John Van Dell, the former logger,
who last week murdered Edward w.
Olson, chairman of the industrial in
surance commission, is to be tried
early in March on the charge Of first
degree murder, to which he pleaded
not guilty when arraigned before Su-
perior Judge Mitchell late last Fri
day afternoon. The case will prob
ably be the first during the next jury
term.
Temporary insanity, 1t is expected,
will be the defense advanced in his
behalf, Attorney w. J. Milroy having
been appointed by the court to repre-
sent him. His plea Of not guilty to
the first degree charge. in spite of
the fact that his statement to Prose
cutting Attorney O'Leary shortly after
the crime was q complete confession
Of 1t. is taken to indicate his inten-
ton to fight life sentence and to
put forth the claim that the murder
was not premeditated.
Van Dell. according to the Jail au-
thorities, shows no indications Of re-
morse over his heineous act, but on
the contrary laughs and Jokes with
his attorney. He has refused stead
fastly to tell anything about himself
further than that he was working at
Bordeaux Camp 4 when hurt last Sep
tember, and search of the room occu-
pied by him in local lodging house
before the murder revealed that he
had destroyed every scrap Of paper
that would give any hint to his pre-
vious history.
From other sources, however, II
has been learned that he came direct
ly to the Bordeaux camp last sum-
mer from Bay City, Mich, where 1t
is believed his aged mother still lives.
At the time he made his statement
to the prosecuting attorney. he re-
fused absolutely to tell where she
lived. Workmen who recently came
to Olympia. however. from the Michi-
gan city, say they knew him there.
Many further details Of Van Dell's
movements Immediately prior to the
crime and during the several months
he received treatment for his inju-
ries at st. Peters hospital, have been
ascertained by the authorities during
the past week. Most Of these will not
be revealed until the trial, which is
expected to attract as large a crowd
as any recently held here.
