Tonight “Tlu> Precious Packet,” a
five part Gold Rooster play will lie
the new bill at the Dream. This drama
made quite a successful run at the
Olemmer ineater In Seattle and is nn
extra fine Pathe production. The
Dream just received notice that
"Damaged Goods,” the sensation of
the movie industry will arrive in a
few days. From several standpoints
this film stands alone and is con
sidered the greatest Instructive fea
ture ever produced. No children un
der sixteen will he admitted. This
rule has been enforced through the
states, and was agreed upon when
the national board of censors not only
passod but endorsed “Damaged
Goods.”

casion he asserts that he attained a
height of 16,100 feet and has touched
the ten thousand foot mark fourteen
tunes. His previous best record was
9,200 feet. In spite of the great
hazards of aeroplane flight Richard
son says he has had only two acci
dents In one of which ho landed al
most without a scratch. In the other
,he sustained injuries which placed
him in the hospital but was in no
way serious. At the time of writing
he was engaged In Instructing a class

George B. Grigsby again sustained
his reputation of champion cue artist
of this Section by defeating E. F.
Weils in the Anal game of their 14.2
inch balkline match at the Board of
Trade billiard parlor last night. The
final score was Grigsby 400, Wells
345. As was the case in the first half
of the series, the game was decidedly
interesting from the moment Umpire
Klesele placed the halls and the large
crowd was held at strict attention
throughout.
During the earlier part of the game
fhe players seesawed frequently, first
one and then the other taking the
lead with good sized runs appearing
at Intervals. Wells forged ahead of
his opponent for fifty points when
close to the half way point but later
developed an erratic streak and was
gradually overtaken by Grigsby, who
played a steady and consistent game.
The game was distinguished by rapid
ly changing situations throughout the
last half. Grigsby was in the lead
practically Mil the way up to the
nineteenth inning. At that point his
opponent made two successive run of
19 and 31 which placed him in the
lead by a small margin and this he
maintained until tlhe 37th, when a
run of 19 by Grigsby tied the score.
Wells again took the lead In the fol
lowing inning and maintained the po
sition until the 46th. Grigsby again
passed In the 48th but was overtaken
immediately by Wells who hung onto
first place until the 66th when Grigs
by mnde his top run of forty and
placed the score 393 to 346 in his own
favor. Wells failed on his next try
an Grigsby brought the game to n
close with runs of fifteen and two.
The highest runs recorded were 40' for
Udigsby and 31 for Wells.

class shape in expectation of a busy

A report has been in circulation to
the effect that a local grocery concern
hail received instructions from Wash
ton to restrict to limited quantities
sales of certain food commodities. It
is said that the order particularly ap
plied to sales of ham and bacon, only
a certain amount to be sold to any
individual. Although inquiries were
made today the rumor could not be
verified.
A number of patriotic citizens are
already Interesting themselves In the
coming Fourth of July and will prob
ably undertake to bring about the
usual celebration on that day. As
there is additional excuse for patriotic
fervor at the present time there will
probably be u prompt response. Al
though some of the independence day
celebrations of the past have been
rather curtailed. Nome has always
held a celebration of some chariot."'
and the day should be fittingly ob
served on the next return of the na
tion's birthday.
