A six reel version of Archibald
Cleavering Gunthers great novel "Mr
Barnes of New York" will be the of
fering at the Dream tonight and it is
safe to say that no greater film feature
lias ever made appenranoe in Nome.
Included in the cast are such movie
celebrities as Maurice Costello who as
sumes the role of Mr. Barnes, Miss
Mary Charleson, Donald Hall, Robert
Galliard. Adele De Garde, S. R. Drew
and and Alberta Galliard. beside a con
siderable number of others of lesser
note. This great story has probably
been read by more people than any
other American novel and has been
played on the legitimate stage for
years with undiminished popularity.
The principal character, Mr. Barnes, is
that of a. wealthy New Yorker who,
while traveling in Europe meets a
Corsican nobleman. Count Danella, and
accompanies him to his estate where
he meets the count’s ward Marina who
is waiting for her brother, Antonia,
who is a French army officer. A few
days later Barnes fails to save Antonia
from being killed in a duel with an
English officer and the story mainly
hinges around the effort of the sister
of tiie dead man to locate her brother’s
slayer against whom she lias sworn
the vendetta. During the course of her
search Marina goes to Alexandria
which has just passed through the
bombardment of 1882 and finds in the
hospital among the wounded Lieuten
ant Anstruther with whom she falls
in love and nurses back to health.
Barnes in the meantime has met his
fate In Enid, the sitser of Lieutenant
Anstruther. Barnes, Enid and Marina
meet in Monte Carlo but Barnes is
called away shortly after and Enid
; learns that Marina is in love with her
i brother In the, meantime the count,
; who is at Gibraltar, advises Marina
that he lias located her brother's
slayer. His suspicions are founded on
the fact that the revolver witli which
the deed was committed is the proper
ty of Lieutenant Anstruther. The count
does not know that Marina is engaged
to the English officer and succeeds in
decoying him to Monte Carlo. Marina
through her lnvp has abandoned her
vcpulgftta nnd the count discovering
her attachment to Anstruther becomes
so incensed that he determines to allow
her to marry the lioutenant before tell
ing her that he is the man she is hound
by her oath to kill. Barnes in London
learns of the state of affairs and know
ing the lieutenant to l.e guiltless has
tens to Corsica arriving a few hours
after the wedding The count then in
forms Marina that she ha* married
her brother’* slayer and tries to in
duce her to kill her husband. She re
fuse* and her foster father Tomasso
proreeds to carry out the vendetta hut
hy a mistake kills the count Instead of
the Englishman. Barnes just in time
to explain everything and recall Mar
ina to her husband's love thus pre
venting further blood shed. He also
succeeds in his own love affair with
Enid. Owing to the length of the pro
gram there will t>e but two perfor
mances. the first show starting at 7
p. m. sharp and tiie last at 9 o’clock.
The price of admission will he fifty

With all the members present, the
Common Council took up the regular
Monday night business last evening,
including the business of the post
poned meeting of last Monday Memor
ial Day. After the reading of the min
utes which, were approved as rend, the
Clerk read a communication from the
School Board asking that the sum of
$1,200 tie granted fur the closing of tin
.(•counts of the Board for the term
lust ended. The eommunication a!s 1
called the attention of the Council that
the Hoard had been practicing the
most rigid economy In proof of which
tt was stated that the expenses for the
past year were 91.000 less than for any
previous > ear.
A communication from one A. Kov
inls was also read asking for llie po
sition of official street sweeper at a
salary of $50 per month.
The report of the various officers
was made, that of the City Treasurer
disclosing that there was tiie sum of
$1.510.11 in the city strong box. The
city clerks report of receipts and dis
ibursements was read.
The City Health officer reported two
city patients In tiie hospital and also
stated that he had ordered the removal
of a number of dead animals from the
waterfront and published a final no
tice to tiie property owners of the city
to clean up their premises.
The City Attorney slated by llie way
of information that the tax certificates
issued by the City against property
sold for nonpayment of taxes did not
grant the purchaser the right posses
sion. The person buy ing the property
was entitled to draw interest on the
certificates in llie sum of twelve cents
per annum but could not guin posses
sion of the property except hy process
of law, before tiie statutory time had
elapsed.
Lumen reporting for the Police com
mittee staled that six arrests had been
made in the past two weeks, and the
tire committee reported one fire, the
same occurring in the Anvil Bakery
nun nominal cliarge. it was uiso
sialcd that llie pumps ol llie lire uo
parunent hud been examinee aim some
defects righted. Claims and accounts
against lit* city, including the city pay
loll for the month of May, tolaiing lie
sum of $3,251.65. The Snake River
bridge was one of the items constantly
recurring during llie reading of the
long list of hills and it was also dis
closed that the removal of snow and
work on the city drains was a costly
item.
The labor bills were ordered paid
after which Councilman Lumen moved
that .1. .1. Stokes of Hie Eagle Hall and
J. W. Clark of the Dream moving pic
ture iiouses he granted authority as
special officers for the purpore of
maintaining order during preformances.
The motion was granted. Councilman
Lehmann then arose to complain that
the ordinance against allowing dogs
to run at large during the day time
was not being enforced, which com
plaint will doubtless find response in
the minds of tiie general public.
Mayor Diamond called the attention
of the police committee to the matter
with instructions to enforce the law.
The Mayor then announced that Coun
cilman Blake. Lehmann and Lomen
would he appointed as a sort of ex
officio advisory hoard, stating that the
committee was to act in conjunction
with the school hoard.
This action of His Honor seemed to
create a mild sensation among the
counciimen and Councilman Blake up
rose. to ask the why and wherefore
concerning the duties of said com
mittee. The Mayor stated that the
purpose was mainly to ascertain the
probable cost of running the school
lor the ensuing year. This effort of
the Mayor to get a line on things
seemed satisfactory to all and the
council again assumed its wonted air
of calm serenity.
Councilman Lehmann then offered
the suggestion that, in as much as the
finances were none too plethoric, the
property owners should he called upon
to repair their own side walks, further
remarking that he would personally
rather do his own side walk mending
than to have his taxes raised. There
was no response to the suggestion but
the council looked gloomy until Coun
cilman Burgh broke the spell by mov
ing that the request of the School
Board for $1,200 ha allowed. The re
quest was granted and tho council then
adjourned.
