THE MORNING OKEGONIAN, WEDNESDAY, JULY 31, 1901'.
FOUR DAYS IN PORTLAND
STEAMSHIP INDRAVELLI RECEIVES
RECORD-BREAKING DISPATCH.
Heavy Invrnrd and Fair Outward
CarKO Handled in Fast Time
Many River Craft In Trouble.
The quickest dispatch ever given a big
Oriental liner at this or any other port
on the Pacific Coast was that received
by the Portland & Asiatic Company's
steamship Indravelli on her present trip
to this port. The steamship reached Port
land at 9 o'clock last Friday evening
with C000 tons of cargo on board, includ
ed in which was over 12,000 chests of new
crop tea. As the liner had been delayed
by way business In the Orient, a spe
cial effort was made to get her cargo out
and start&d on Its journey eastward. A
double gang of stevedores and longshore
men was put to work Saturday morning,
and continued working all day Sun
day. Discharging was finished early
Monday morning, and as soon as
everything was out the work of
reloading commenced. The Indravelli
has a carrying capacity of 8000 tons
dead weight, and has , a record of over
10,000 tons, weight and measurement, and
as this is the dull season of the year,
she is not loaded to her capacity. She
has something over 4C00 tons on board
and will go down the river at 3 o'clock
this morning, after a stay in port of four
days and six hours.
The Indravelli, on her present Inward
trip, handled a very heavy local business
between Hong Kong and Japanese ports,
and was several days late in arriving.
She has received such remarkable dis
patch, however, that she will go out but
two days behind her schedule tlnie. The
reports of the stagnation In the flour trade
which have been drifting in from the
Orient are confirmed by the remarkably
light flour shipment on board the steam
er, there being only about 5000 barrels
on board. She has a big shipment of
cotton for Kobe,, and a lot of beer for
Hong Kong. There Is over 500,000 feet of
lumber for Hong Kong. The remainder of
the cargo is made up of provisions, gro-
cerles, butter, cheese, crackers and a
lot of paper for Shanghai.
EPIDEMIC OF DISASTERS.
Steamer Ilalley Gntzcrt the Latest
Victim of an Accident.
An epidemic of disaster seems to be
sweeping over the river craft just at
present, and with some of them the ac
cidents are exceptionally aggravating on
account of the heavy tourist travel which
Is now with us. The latest victim of an
unkind fate is the steamer Bailey Gat
zeit, which returned to her dock an hour
after leaving yesterday morning and dis
charged over 200 disappointed excursion
ists who had started for The Dalles. Her"
pitman strap broke just below St. Johns,
and the steamer will be unable to resume
bcr regular trips before Friday. The Ore
gon City Transportation Company's steam
er Leona, which was gathering in tour
ists' shekels on the Oregon City route,
has not yet received a new shaft to re
place the one broken about a week ago,
and yesterday the Pomona, of the same
line, made too quick a jump over Five
Island bar, near Fairfield, and broke a
hog chain. She will be ready for busi
ness again tomorrow, and the Leona is
expected to report for duty Friday.
Othci river craft in trouble within the
past few days were the Eugene, which
was aground for several hours on Five
Island Bar: Albany aground for nearly a
day in the Clatskanic, and Reliance, which
was obliged to take a brief lay-off for
repairs, on account of a break in her
machinery.
BIG BARGE BUSINESS.
Oregon Round Lumber Company
Will Add to Its Fleet.
The Oregon Round Lumber Company has
rustled up so much work for its barges
Columbia and Defender that it is making
arrangements for the construction of a
new barge of greater carrying capacity
than either of the large ones now In use.
The company Is just at present engaged in
freighting both ways on the Columbia. It
has a contract for the delivery of 1500
yards of gravel and 1000 yards of sand
at Fort Stevens, and 500 yards of gravel
and 500 yards of sand at Fort Columbia.
After discharging their cargoes of sand
and gravel the barges come up the river
to the Cowlitz and Clatskanic and load
piling for Portland for reshlpment to Cali
fornia. The gravel Is secured from the
bed of the Willamette, near Ross Island,
and the sand from the mouth of the
Sandy River. It is for use on the Govern
ment work at the mouth of the river, and
is of superior quality.
LIGHT-DRAFT STEAMBOATIXG.
"Willamette River Boats Experience
Some Dlfflcnlty In Spot.
The water In the "Willamette River Is
very low on the upper reaches just at
present, and steamboat navigation is con
ducted with difllculty. A passenger com
ing down on the steamer Pomona tells an
amusing story of the methods employed in
finding the best channel. While coming
over a bar near Fairfield the boat came
almost to a dead stop. Captain Spong
then left the wheel in charge of the pilot,
and. pulling on his gum boots, waded out
ahead of the boat, sounding with a stick
as he went. After finding the best water
he beckoned to the pilot and the boat
would slowly follow her master. In this
way Captlan Spong succeeded in leading
his craft over the bar Into deeper water
below. The Pomona ran all Summer last
year and Captain Spong expects to keep
her moving through the present low-water
seasdh, if it becomes necessary to lift her
over with jackscrews where she will not
be led.
Contract for Transcontinental Liner.
LONDON, July 31. "Herr Albert Bal
lln, of the Hamburg-American line, has
signed a contract with Harland &. Wolff,"
says the Dally Express, "for the con
struction of a 21,000-ton transatlantic
liner. Although larger than the Deutsc
land, the new steamer will not be so
fast. He has also entered into a cer
tain arrangement with certain British
shipping companies with regard to the
China trade, arrangements directed pos
sibly toward shutting out America."
Xo 'ews of the Charles D. Lane.
SEATTLE, July 30. The steamer Buck
ingham arrived today from St. Michael,

WORTH LARGE SUMS.
Old Pieces of China Scattered
Around the Country.
Old china has a value far beyond its in
trinsic worth, says the New York Press.
Sometimes Its possessors are Ignorant of
what their treasured bits are really worth.
The story of how Dresden ware was 'made
first in Europe is interesting. Egg shells
and sea shells ground up and burled for a
hundred years was the recipe the Chinese
gave two centuries ago for making porce
lain. It was a trade secret which the
Chinese were clever enough to keep to
themselves for a thousand years, and If It
had not been for an enterprising young
German named Bottcher It would prob
ably be sealed yet.
Bottcher was an apothecary's apprentice
in a small Prussian town. His ambitious
experiments with chemicals caused his
townspeople to declare him a wizard, so
he ran away to Dresden, where the King
set him to work to try to make gold. Soon
afterward a rich Dresden ironmaster
named Schnoor, in riding across his land
was bogged In a bed of white clay. Think
ing It might do for hair powder, he took
some of the stuff home and dried It and
sent it to the King. The King handed it
over to his new chemist, who burnt some
and then found to his amazement that the
stuff was real kaolin, or china clay. '
When the King saw the value of the
discovery he shut up Bottcher In the fort
ress of Konigstein to continue his experi
ments. The clay was carried to him in
barrels under the royal seal, the workmen
sworn to secrecy, and a notice hung In
every room: "Be secret unto death."
Four years later, in 1719, a workman
named Stohzel escaped to Vienna and
started a china factory there, and from
that town the secret was carried to Eng
land. Early specimens of this Dresden china
are of Immense value. A little clock,
dated 1727, was bought by one of the
Rothschilds some years ago for J600, and Is
worth today 51250. A pair of candlesticks
were sold at the same time to the Mar
quis of Bath for $1155. Genuine Dresden
work can easily be told by the "hall
mark" It bears of a couple of crossed
electoral swords.
The prices mentioned are nothing com
pared with those paid for good English
porcelain made at Chelsea. A set of
seven vases sold for "$15,000. A desert
service, specially made for the Duke of
Mecklenburg In 1763, cost $6000 at the fac
tory. If any of It Is still In existence It
will be cheaR at $1000 a plate. There Is a
good deal of old Chelsea china in private
hands. Owing to the fact that the making
of It ceased In 1765, it is worth more than
Its weight In gold. It is deep blue often a
little wavy claret red, canary yellow, or
sea green, and the gilding is especially
heavy. Each piece bears underneath the
regular Chelsea mark, an anchor In red or
gold.
Stratford, England, once had a famous
china factory. Bow china, as it Is called,
Is second only to Chelsea In value. There
is a painted bowl of Bow china In the
British Museum worth over $1000. A single
triangle, or sometimes two triangles in a
circle. Is the usual mark of Bow china.
But some specimens have no marks un
derneath, but have Instead a bee modeled
or painted on some part of the upper sur
face. These are specially valuable. An
other way of telling both Chelsea and
Bow china is by Its exquisite whiteness.
The letter D crossed by an anchor on
any old cup or saucer is the mark on the
ware turned out by another long-extinct
factory, the Chelsea Derby. Dr. Johnson
says of the china. produced In 1777 that "it
was beautiful, and dear as solid silver." It
would be gold today.
The most important china works in
England today are those in Worcester.
Specimens of its early output are as val
uable as almost any old china in exist
ence. Early Worcester china made by Dr.
Wall, who founded the works Is, most
of it. blue and white, like Chinese ware.
It can easily be Identified by the heavy,
irregular black crescent at the bottom of
each piece. All the saucers have this
mark, but the cups have sometimes
only a tiny letter "b." Worcester of a
few years later has an oddly-shaped "W"
upon It.
Bits of Worcester china of 1780 and a
lltte later may be told by a maze-like
square. This Is always valuable. A din
ner service, even though Imperfect,
fetched $2300 recently. The mark Is al
ways In blue or red.
Flight, Ban- & Barr were the next
owners of the Worcester works. Their
name sometimes appears In full on the
bottom of their exquisite plates and sau
cers; but more often simply the initials
"F.. B. &B." The painting on this china
Is some of the finest In existence. Two
plates noticed by a cylcllst In a cottage
near Pershore, In Worcestershire, real
ized for their owner, who was unaware
of their value. $45 apiece.
A shield with "K. B." on the top
means that the piece of china which bears
it was made by Kerr & Binns, who owned
the Worcester works In the middle of
the last century. They were specially
commissioned once to make a dinner ser
vice for Queen Victoria.
If the crown, with crossed swords un
derneath, and the letter "D" below them,
Is marked In violet on the bottom of any
plate, It is real Crown Derby, of which
there is still a good deal In existence.
Early specimens are very valuable, some
fetching more than four times their
weight in gold.
THEIR SMOKES DISTURBED.
Xine People Arrested Charged With
Using Opium.
Policemen Carpenter, Sloan and Kitz
mlllep raided a Chinese house on Second
street, near Oak, yesterday, and arrested
these defendants, charged with being fre
quenters of an opium den: Chlng Ding,
John Smith. John Harrington, T. L. Mor
gan, Charles Brown. Jennie Smith, Gertie
Smith. Minnie Williams and Carrie Hun
ter. Two of the women are colored. AH
the prisoners will have a hearing this
afternoon at the Municipal Court.
The latest Swiss engineering scheme Is to
pierce the inase of the Thaals at Sta-Croce.
near Chlavenna, and so create a tunnel 2-i
miles in length. The undertaking, which seems
likely to take Immediately a definite- shape,
will take 10 years to comoleto.
NO AGREEMENT YET
(Continued from First Page.)
Ing concerning the strike conference, ac
cording to information from excellent au
thority, the following condition is looked
upon, late tonight, as being the real sta
tus of the case:
It is not a hitch over any clause in the
proposition for the settlement submitted
by J. P. Morgan, of the United States
Steel Corporation, to the Amalgamated
Association, that Is holding back an early
settlement of the strike. The real cause
of the trouble Is that there are two pro
nounced elements found In, the make-up
of the executive board of the Amalga
mated Association. The conservatives,
headed by President Shaffer, Secretary
Williams, Trustee John Morgan, and
and some of the older and more experi
enced leaders, are understood to look with
favor upon the propositions submitted.
On their face, it is said, they may not
appear to be as complete a vindication
for the workers as was hoped for, but
the possibilities for extending the Influ
ence of the Amalgamated Association
through the mills of the corporation are
manifold. The more radical . element,
which Is largely made up of the aggres
sive and younger men, Is understood to
be anxious to hold out for more favor
able terms. The controversy between the
members of the board, while calmly con
ducted. It is understood, was not near an
agreement when an adjournment was
taken tonight.
It was Impossible to gain the slightest
Inkling of the nature of the propositions
that have been made to the workers.
They have been so closely locked up in
the minds of those interested, that the
men are afraid to even speak of strike
matters. The determination of the offi
cials to keep silence pending a final de
termination of the struggle has gone so
far that none of the members are found
alone at any time after the adjournment.
They all openly pronounce the proposi
tions tfius far outlined In the press as
"guesswork," and declare it would be
Impossible for any one to give the true
statement. A peculiar feature of the sit
uation was the total absence of the of
ficials of the United States Steel Cor
poration from Pittsburg.
A telegram from Youngstown, O., to
night says: "Unless the Amalgamated
Association strike Is settled within a few
days, 1200 furnace workers will go out
on a sympathetic strike. The order has
been Issued by the Federation of Labor,
with which the furnace workers are
affiliated, and will be put Into effect be
fore the week Is out. The move Is caused
by the United States Steel Corporation
placing an order with the Independent
furnaces of the valley for 40,000 tons of
Bessemer - pig."
, ACTJON WILL BE DECISIVE.
No Arrangement Exists for Further
Negotiations.
NEW YORK, July 30.-It Is learned here
today upon high authority that the action
of the exocutlve board of the Amalga
mated Association at Pittsburg today,
when it passes upon the peace proposals
agreed upon at the conference here Satur
day, will be decisive. There exists no ar
rangement for further negotiations', and
peace or a continuance of the strike
hinges upon the vote.
The statement that a group of officials
of the companies forming the United
States Steel Corporation were to. .go Jto
Pittsburg for a further discussionwHh
the labor leaders was erroneous. The
agreement of Saturday was complete,
and Its force depends upon ita ratification
by the Amalgamated Association and the
subsidiary companies of the United Stateo
Steel Corporation. The latter action is,
however, a mere formality. If the Amal
gamated executive board approves the
basis of settlement the strike will be over;
if it disapproves It, the strike will con
tinue In effect, and in the same state
that It existed before Messrs. Shaffer and
Williams met Messrs. Morgan and
Schwab
MOLDERS GO BACK TO WORK.
National Founders' Association,
However, Made No Concessions.
CHICAGO, July 30. President Hoyt, of
the National Founders' AssocIatlon,jhas
given out a statement that the' iron
molders employed by 11 firms belonging
to the association have returned to work
without any concessions on the part of
the employers. Further, it was reported
that there would be a meeting of the
executive 'committee of the fifth district
of the Founders' Association tomorrow
afternoon.
President Hoyt said the object in call
ing this committee together was to get
6oncerted action in filling the places of
the strikers who did not return to work.
The members are pledged to stand by
each other In time of trouble, and this
committee will act as an agent In send
ing men here to fill the shops of the local
manufacturers.
Strikers Ready to Go to Worlc.
McKEESPORT, Pa., July 30. Hundreds
of Idle men are lounging around the
gates of the mills ready to go to work.
Morning trains . from up and down the
Monongahela, where fishing camps
abound, brought in hundreds of strikers,
who had gone Into seclusion when the
strike came. Their return strengthens
the belief that word has been passed
that the strike will be ended within 4S
hours. The rumor that the Demmler plant
had been btarted yesterday was caused
by the management testing some new
rolls.
Situation Is Serious at Tampa.
TAMPA, Fla., July 30. The strike sit
uation here tonight is serious. The re
moval of certain anarchistic leaders of the
cigar-makers from the city has been pub
licly advocated. The Irritation among the
strikers Is such that It Is probable that
an act of this kind would bring about a
conflict. The manufacturers have held
frequent conferences today, .but have
given out nothing.
Strikers May Make Trouble.
STEUBENVILLE, O., July 30. A riot
ous crowd gathered about the Mingo
Junction plant of the National Steel Com
pany this- morning and was dispersed by
the police. Nlnety-flve Slavish furnace
men struck because they were refused an
advance cf 25 to 40 cents per day. Their
places were filled by Italians, and trouble
Is anticipated.
At Homes at Greenwich Observatory.
London Telegraph.
Nearly two hundred ladles and gentle
men had an opportunity, through the
courtesy of the astronomer royal, of visi
iting the observatory at Greenwich and
inspecting the marvels of that wonderful
establishment. Formerly the fair sex In
terested In the solar system and their
male friends who are not exactly scien
tific experts were invited to the annual
examination by the board of visitors, but
as this arrangement was found to inter
fere with the furtherance of pure science
it was discontinued, and Mr. Christie,
very gallantly and courteously, now
gives one or two "at homes" during the
month of June, so that ladles and non
scientific men might not be deprived of
a most Interesting and pleasant excur
sion. The Canadian Isolation Policy.
The keynote of this new policy which
has been adopted for Canada by the Lib
eral party now in power, says J. D.
Whelpley In the August Atlantic, Is to
maintain, so far as the United States is
concerned, the present Isolation of Can
ada, and to cultivate claser relations with
England and her colonies, and such oth
er countries as may show considerate in
terest in the products of Canadian in
dustry. The domestic phase of this new
policy is to be the active development of
all Canadian transportation routes; the
encouragement of immigration, especially 1
from the United States, and the develop
ment of subsidies of all Industries, par
ticularly those which can use Canadian
raw material now sent to the United
States for treatment.
NARROW ESCAPE OF QUEEN
Attempt Made to Assassinate the
Mother of King; Carlos.
NEW YORK, July 31. A special dis
patch to the Herald from Alx-les-Bains
says:
Maria Pia, Queen Dowager .of Portugal,
and mother of the present King Carlos,
has had a narrow escape from assassina
tion. Her Majesty was taking a course
of the baths here, but was so perturbed
by the attack upon her that she left AIx
hastily for Rome. Details of the at
tempted assassination are not obtainable
at present. The police are said to have a
clew. News of the affair is only begin
ning to spread among the visitors. It is
causing a deep sensation, for the Queen
Dowager was known personally to a con
siderable number of people. She was
very democratic In her demeanor, chatting
freely with her fellow bathers.
t
HE SHOT IN SELF-DEFENSE
Constable Slays Criminal Who At
tempted to Kill Him. n
BOISE. Idaho, July 30. A special to the
Statesman from Welser, Idaho, says that
W. T. Green was shot and instantly
killed tonight by Constable Nevlns. The
shooting occurred at a ranch six miles
from town. Nevlns had a warrant for
Green's arrest "and as soon as the Con
stable put In an appearance Green opened
fire, but missed. Nevlns then shot him
in the head.

ANOTHER SQUABBLE OVER THE
UTAH-LOS ANGELES LINE.
Oregon Short Line and the San
Pedro Are the Companies
at War.
SALT LAKE, Utah, July 30. The Ore
gon Short Line and the San Pedro Rail
roads have again become Involved In a
controversy orer a right of way In Lin
coln County, Nevada. The land In ques
tion is known as the Culverwell ranch,
and both companies lay claim to this
property by right of purchase.
News has just reached Salt Lake that
on Sunday the Short Line forces, having
completed the road to Calclentee, or Clo
ver Valley Junction, as It was formerlys
known, decided to push their work south
ward without delay. They had proceeded
but a short distance, when they encoun
tered a strong barbed-wire barrier, which
had been constructed on the edge of the
Culverwell property by the San Pedro
Company. Three or four watchmen of
the latter company were on the ground,
and warned the Short Line people against
crossing the line. The Short Line force
paid no attention to the warning, and
proceeded to demolish the barrier, and
continued the building of their road to
wards the coast.
Parley L. Williams, attorney for the
Short Line in thla city, when seen today,
said his company was building a railroad,
that'it had Its own survey, and intended
to carry the work through. C. O. Whilte
more, attorney for the San Pedro road,
did not care to discuss the matter, but
intimated that he would have the entire
invading force, principals and all, arrested
for trespass.
The Trans-Baikal Railroad.
Consul-General Holloway reports from
St. Petersburg, June 22. 1901, as follows:
"The Trans-Baikal Railroad, which Is a
continuation of the trans-Siberian route,
is completed, and trains are now running
between Moscow and Stretensk, on the
Amur River. The 'train de luxe,' which
is equal In comfort to an American vestl
bulo train, leaves Moscow every Wednes
day at 8:35 P. M., reaches Irkutsk at 6:30
P. M. on Thursday of the following week,
and leaves there the next morning for
Lake Baikal, which passengers cross in
the steamer Angara In nine hours, reach
ing the Mysovala station, on the opposite
shore of Lake Baikal, at 6:30 P. M., and
arriving at Stretensk at 10:37 on Monda.
11 days from Moscow. The first-class fare
is U2.90 rubles ($58 14). The route from
Stretensk to Khabarovsk is via the Amur
River, and requires a week, the fare be
ing 42.32 rubles ($21.79). From Khabarovsk
the passengers take the Ussurlan Railroad
to Vladlvostock, which requires 32 hours
and costs 16.50 rubles ($8 49). Thla reduces
the time between Moscow and Vladlvo
stock to 19 days. The steamships of the
volunteer fleet require six weeks to go
from Odessa to Vladlvostock, and the
past-age costs 500 rubles ($257 50)."
Reconstructing: Bowrd of Directors.
LOS ANGELES, Cal., July 30. The di
rectorate of the San Pedro, Los Angeles
& Salt Lake Railroad Is to be partially
reorganized, with a view to having a ma
jority of the directors located In this city.
Charles W. Clark, son of Senator W. A.
Clark, has already resigned from the
board, and Perry Heath or Charles B.
Lelghton, of St. Louis, will follow suit.
Ross W. Smith, of this city, has been se
lected to succeed young Clark, and Ferd
K. Rule, auditor of the company, will be
elected to the other vacancy. These
changes will locate a quorum of the
directors in Los Angeles and facilitate
directors' meetings and the transaction of
executive business.
Gould and Pcnnsy Get ToRether.
NEW YORK, July 30. The Mall and
Express says:
"There have been, several conferences
during the last three weeks between repre
sentatives of the Pennsylvania and Gould
Interests, which may result In some dis
position of the new Wabash line into
Pittsburg and possibly the establishment
of a close working agreement between
the several systems Involved. In this
event probably the rival road will not be
built. It Is assumed that under the ar
rangement the Missouri Pacific would
have a suitable traffic arrangement for
using the Pennsylvania system as an
Eastern outlet."
Pike's Penk Railroad Test.
COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo., July 30.
With only one man, E. F. McKay, city
editor of the Colorado Springs Gazette,
on board, a train on the Pike's Peak cog
road was turned loose today near the ttop
of the peak to test the automatic brake.
A speed of 25 miles an hour was quickly
reached, at which the brake worked au
tomatically, and stopped the train. A
large number of people witnessed the
fast. These trains are equipped with sev
eral varieties of brakes.
Sonthern Pacific Oil Bonds.
NEW YORK, July 30. The Mall and
Express says:
"The Southern Pacific Company Is about
to Issue from $10,000,000 to $15,000,000 of
new bonds to 'be used largely for making
the change In motive power on the Texas
and California lines from coal to oil, for
constructing pipe lines to transfer oil,
and for oil properties which the company
has acquired or Is about to acquire, in
order to guarantee abundant supplies for
years to come."
Railroad Assessment Increased.

the Increase Is almost $400,000.- The val
uation of the railroad property of the
state is $15,000,000.
Grade Stakes AH Set.
ST. HELENS, Or., July 30. The survey
ors have completed the work of setting
grade stakes from Scappoose to Mist via
Pittsburg, and from Pittsburg to a consid
erable distance above Vernonla, on Rock
Creek. The survey will pass within a mile
of newly discovered coal fields.
Playsoing: in the Provinces.
Henri' Arthur Jones In Nineteenth Century.
The first thing to note in the situation
Is the great and continued Increase of
country people who constantly visit Lon
don. Not only our leading families, but
almost every tradesman goes up to Lon
don every year, for periods varying from
some days to some months. This means
that English playgolng has become large
ly centralized in London. Our long runs
In town are largely supported by the con
stant flux of country visitors. Country
peopla do most of their playgolng In
London, and 'tend to have their tastes
and judgments formed by London stand
ards. The plays that obtain sufficient
success in London to be sent into the
country have been already seen In their
best presentment by most of the regular
provincial playgoers. And unless a play
has some feaures of absorbing Interest
It Is rarely visited in the country by those
who have already seen it in London to
better advantage, or to what they sup
pose to be better advantage.
The large towns, eight or 10 in number,
are visited nearly every year by some of
the leading London managers Irving,
Tree, Alexander, Hare, the Kendal, the
Cyril Maudes, and others. These leading
managers take their London productions
and their London performers at any
rate. In the leading parts. There Is gen
erally a little reduction In the salary
list, a little weakening of the London
cast, but the performance Is not marked
ly Inferior to the one given In town.
These visits of the leading actors are
almost always crowded, and bring a very
substantial profit to both London and 1

local manager. And these few weeks, at
most some six or eight In the Autumn,
are almost the only profitable ones in
the whole year for our leading country
managers apart from pantomime and
musical comedy. There is perhaps a
chance successful week or so of a Lon
don success, a popular melodrama, or an
extraordinary farce like "Charley's
Aunt."
It Is not worth while to quibble about
words, but these visits of London man
agers can hardly be counted as the pro
vincial drama. When the whole cast and
scenery of the Lyceum or Her Majesty's
arc taken to the Theater Royal, Man
chester, it Is virtually London playgolng
that Is being done in Manchester.

Milwaukee Sentinel.
lie arrived In Milwaukee yesterday, a
tall, angular specimen of the Inhabitants
from the farms of Northern Wisconsin.
Travel-stained and weary, he dropped Into
a Grand-avenue barber's shop, and bath
house for a real city shave. " While in
dulging, in this luxury the barber painted
In such glowing colors the wonder of
their bathe establishment that the rural
visitor finally decided to go in for It if It
broke him. Attaching himself to an at
tendant, he was meekly led into a won
derful room of tiled iloors and wall, white
enameled bath tubs and all the modern
improvements of plumbing.
While the luxurlousness of It all over
came him for a while, his curiosity finally
got the better of him and he proceeded to
investigate. At the head of the tub was
one of those patent cylindrical waste-pipe
regulators that empty the tub by pulling
up. After giving this a slight pull he set
tled dreamily back Into the soothing
water, noticing that the water was slow
ly diminishing. This In no way disturbed
him, and in about an hour the attendant
appeared, inquiring if he had had enough.
"I guess I have," said he. "I've soaked
up about six inches of your gol darned
water, and I reckon that'll about do for
me."
To keep the skin clean
is to wash the excretions
from it off; the skin takes
care of .itself inside, if not
blocked outside.
To wash it often and
clean, without doing any
sort of violence to it, re
quires a most gentle soap,
a soap with no free al
kali in it.
Pears', the soap that
clears but not excoriates.
All sorts of stores sell It, especially
druggists j all sorts of people use it.

It has stopped my falling hair. I have
tried many different preparations In the
past two years, but none took effect ex
cept Newbro's Herpiclde." Dandruff Is a
germ disease, ind Herpiclde Is an infal
