The theater held the largest crowd in it history iniiny were turned nvvny and the pa rages nt the nnr of tlie parquet mid linleony were filled with people, who enjoyed the lecture by State Onrue Yv'iirden Finley, nnd found the excel lent pictures nnd stunts well worth the discomfort of standing, pneked like sardines, throughout the -how, Tho pictures were nil that the cluh promised. Tlic fiit, showing the fnmous eld herd nt Jackson Hole, Wyo., were fine, especially the views Bhowing n herd of (1000 elk drhen down to the alley by snow, and thnt of tho snow s.onn on Teton 1'flhS. Snlinon IWliIng rilm The views of Willnmette Falls were Ftiperb. The c.hihitinn of salmon fishing with rod nnd line, showing the catching of thirtyMuuul fish, half as long as n man's height, with fie-ouncc rod, was some real sport. The films showing the raising of China pheasants, with hens ns fos ter mothers, were intcrc-ting in the extreme nnd mndc more than one local admirer of these beautiful birds vow thnt this vnlloy .should have such a pheasant farm. Fish projiogntion was illustrated fully, from seining for the parent fi-h, taking tho eggs, fertilizing, hatching, to the distribution of the fingcrlings. Chasing tlio Itahibour Itut the last reel was tho be-t "Chnsing the Rainbow on the Rogue" n film which caused Secretary of Commcrco Rcdfield to declnre nt Portland recently thnt ho would never rest content till he had isited Jackson county nnd caught rainbow trout in our Rogue rier. It was worth n lot to see Judge Kelly, Oco. l'litnnni, A. E. Kennies and Sam Snndry casting, reeling nnd landing t'iglit-pouiiders. The wnding and swimming stunts of Kelly brought rounds of npplnusc. All in all, the pictures vera the bent seen here in innnv a, day. ItcvclcrV YmulcvlUo The Revelers, under the direction of Miss Fern Hutchison and Cousin Jliltleburgcr, put on a fine vnude illc background for the pictures notwithstanding the fact that three of their best acts failed them nt tht lust minute on account of indispo-i-tion. Special mention should be made of the Dutch comedy stunt by Jlittleburgcr, tho Yiddish cowboy duet b3' Cousin nnd Sooysmith nnd tho quartet work of Fish, Vuwtcr, Mil tic-burger and Newbury. Mora Show h IromUctl lien Sheldon, who ns a committee of the club had charge of the enter tainment, promises that last even ing's success shall be tho forerunner of others of equal class. This is one of tho many ways tho Commer cial club is advancing n better, htrongcr community spirit. The club and public owo a vote of thanks to Mnnnger Gordon of the Page for his generosity in donating tho uso of the theater. LA FOLLETTE HEADS WAR AGAINST SENATE WASHINGTON', April 4.
