As well as the Bajne of Karlsbad Is known. It Is doubtful If the true life of that little pot Is realized by any except those who have witnessed It for themselves. Indeed, It offers as much to the sight seer as xo tne neaim-seeiter, una iur real interest there ia probably no place In the world where one Is more keenly live to wondering who each Individual (nay be This, because so many promi nent people come here every season and while on the little thoroughfares and every alley-way Is a thoroughfare -one sees the notables of the world and scores of acquaintances. During the few days which I spent In Karle bad, through which I passed on my way to Bayreuth, I saw more acquaint ances than I had seen In the same lAnsrth of tlm anvwhere In Europe. V Among the notables were Mme. Patti. t. with her husband, the Baron Ceder- Btrom, and I could not help wondering whether, after her rejuvenation, she will not feel herself equal to another American tour. She is very vivacious, and ber red-brown hair tells no tales. Mr. and Mrs. Fritz Kreisler are there and be looks very ill and miserable. Those last few weeks In America al most killed the great violinist, because tie waa suffering from "walking typhoid," and worked at least seven weeks In that condition. He told me that he has refused all early engage ments for the coming season In Europe as he must pull together and have some rest. One of the most interesting person ages in Karlsbad at present is Walter Rothwell. the well-known conductor who made several American tours with the "Parsifal" and "Madam Butterfly' companies. During these visits he be came so widely and so favorably known that many of the cities tried to induce him to remain In their midst. It was 6t- Paul, however. that landed tho prize and under conditions which the brilliant young conductor could not re fuse. He was already under contract at the opera-bouse of Frankfort, under highly favorable circumstances, but the demand was made upon him to go Into the harness at once, and after the terrible trip which he had just con cluded In America he felt that he ab solutely could not pick up the baton again before FalL He conducted two rehearsals of "Tannhauser" and then 'decided that he could not possibly drag k through a nine months' season with out a rest. Touring all this time he was receiving cables and letters and Individual visits from St. Paul and he decided in the end of June to cross the ocean again, which be did, and closed with that city for a fabulous price and the privilege of selecting an orchestra of 68 men from anywhere in the world. This talented conductor is here in Karlsbad trying to recover from the heat that he encountered in New York, but Instead of resting he Is making programmes and going through scores of all the modern works. He is delighted at the pros pect of living In America, for which he has conceived a violent liking. The entrance to Karlsbad Is deceptive If one has preconceived ideas about it. and people usually picture the stations nd the surroundings of places which they are about tor visit. But all specula tions as to Karlsbad must be regarded as off. The station Is very unassuming and it lies very far away from the real thing. I arrived on Sunday evening, when there were even more people, if aruch a thing were possible, than on week days. My first acquaintance was with the cafe out In Kaiserpark. where the S o'clock coffee Is served, as also the breakfast. This Is about three miles out In the woods and those who remain true to their "kur" are supposed to walk there, not ride. Everybody is enveloped In steamer rugs and these are supplied 1 by the different hotels and cafes. This extraordinary precaution 19 due to the (act tbat the water are very weakening , while the patient Is taking them, and the system Is run down to the lowest ebb. People suffer from the slightest turn m the weather and Karlsbad lies In the hills, consequently it is only warm for a little while during the day. The walk through the grove Is delightful and one loves the sense of distance, because' of the Interest to be found in studying the different types of people. And types there are from all over tho world; not only different sorts of people, but differ ent diseases are In evidence, and in time one learns the physiognomy of most of the ailments for which people come. The dressing, too, la of utmost interest, not to say amusement, because everything, from the overdressed doll to the careless ly garbed person, utterly oblivious of everything except the "kur," is to be seen. In Karlsbad food is not prepared to tempt the epicure, by any means, as everything is prepared with strict regard to the sanitary end. I had the misfortune to ask for pPPer. I think that this re quest established a reputation for me throughout the length, breadth and in Karlsbad one may also talk of height of the little village. Much of Karlsbad is built on towering heights and the one manner of getting there is by walking. The "kur" is supposed to be taken only by order of the doctors who know the waters. Of these there ere many and all in different degrees of temperature and with different chemical qualities, eacn bearing upon the different systems to such an extent that one can easily realize the danger of Indiscriminate drinking at these springs, which could as easily be the fountains of death as of life. From 6 in the morning, and earlier, people emerge from every little street and alleyway with their cup strapped around them In a most business-like way. Some of these look the image of health, but others ere pitiful to gaze upon, as not only In color, but in hopelessness, they are pathetic pictures. Order must be preserved, as may well be Imagined, and the line, which is never broken, is fre quently many hundred yards ' in length. At the millbrunnen colonade the water is of moderate heat and there are more who drink from this spring than from the others. The water gushes out from the stone wall around which the colonade Is built, and is served by six or eight young girls with machine-like precision. From here many go acrossa the bridge to the very hot spring, where they drink again. The water here is so hot that it bolls an egg, and utmost care must be taken by those who serve it that they do not get scalded either with the water or with the steam. EMILIE FHANCES BAUER.

Thus far the run of fish, both at Slletz Bay on the north and Alsea Bay on tne south has been larger than in Yaqulna Bay.
