SCEXE FROM VICTOR HUGO'S "LES MISERABLES."
"Les Miserables." the crowning masterpiece of Victor Hugo, the
greatest writer that France has ever produced, is appearing in cine
matographical form at the Heillg Theater every afternoon and evening
this ypplr.
This great literary classic has embodied In It more human pathos,
more sense of hatred, love and charity, richer In the very fundamentals
of drama than any production of modern times. The very spirit of the
times seems bound up in this volume. The scenes of the reign of ter
ror in Paris, the rise and fall of Royalist and Republican factions add
to this simple tale of love a volume and a sounding density.
More than two miles of film were used in picturing the scenes of
this great work, from peaceful country lanes to frowning walls of
mediaeval prisons, from Paris to the sunny hamlets of the South.
Hugo's life from one of abject poverty to a tomb In the Pantheon of
France, is not unlike the rise of the great creation, "Vean Valjean.
who will live forever in the hearts of every lover of great literature.

The Pasco Chamber of Commerce held
an adjourned meeting last night to
consider the city, county and school
budgets, which have been prepared as
the basis of taxation lor tne coming
year. The meeting naa Deen aajournea
from the night before and the hall was
well filled with citizens. The first
matter considered was the city budget,
which had been reduced considerably
the night before. A number of citi
12,000
zens advocated further and greater re
ductions.
E. L. Collins, a lumberman, advocat
ed the combination of the office of
City Clerk, City Treasurer, City Engi
neer and Police Judge. Mr. Collins as
serted that one man could easily do
the entire work of these four offices.
President Jahnke, of the First National
Bank, was a warm Bupporter of the
Idea and succeeded in getting it to a
vote and passing the resolution. Ed
ward Donnelly moved to have the Fire
Chief do the Janitor work at the City
Hall. This motion was lost. Another
motion was made to combine the work
of fire chief, chief of police and Jani
tor. To this quite a lot of opposition
developed, but it was passed finally.
The discussion reached such a state
that many citzens and members of the
Chamber of Commerce began to con-
sder the meeting a farce and the crowd
gradually dwindled out until there
were but a few left to finish the busi
ness. The consideration of the county
budget waa postponed until next Mon

parties and factions in the city.
