STOCK LOSS LIGHT
IN LAKE COUNTY
The Bonanza Bulletin says: Louis
Gerber came in Wednesday from
Warner Valley, where he purchased
a large7 band of cattle. .Mr. Gerber
stated that ho was glad to say that
not only being on tho ground: and
seeing for himself, but also inter
viewed such well -known" sheepmen as
Phil Lynch, Manual Sanders, Dan
Malloy and Frank Lane and W. Z.
Xoss, F. M. Miller and other large
cattlemen, that the loss in both cat
'tlo and sheep was comparatively
.light, not more than any previous
season, "I don't think the loss will
bo more than 10 per cent," said Ger
ber. "The Oregon Development com
pany is doing lots of work and will
soon have thousands of acres in the
-Goose Lake country under irrigation,
and I prediot that insido of ono or
two years the country thero will b6
one of activity and all this splendid
land will show what can bo done. All
wo need is tho touch of water dur
ing our summor and growing sea

Sometimes wo are lured by the
three-colored lithographs and wo get
our expectations worked up to a
high pitch; we put on our best togs
and go to tho opera house to seo the
real show of tho season, and oh
what a difference in tho morning.
But last mcnt the Inugli was on
tho people that didn't go. "Wine
Woman and Song," while not n title
that would receive the sauction of
the local clergy, yet tho porformauco
was clean, bright and entertaining
Aliss Bonita is not only a very
beautiful lady, but she is an artistic
actress. She reminds ono of Lillian
Russell wheiithat lndy occupied tho
pinnacle of fame. Wo seemed to
ret tho impression from the billing
or tho nnmb of. the play, or some
thing, that Miss Bonita would rush
into tho spotlight yith a ''hero-I-am"
pose 'look at me'." But not a bit
of it. She made a1 modest entrance
and immediately captured her audi
ence with her modest manner, graco
of movement and her chnrm of
voice.
Tho play cannot bo said to bo a
particularly strong one, for the star,
but thero wero scenes, however, that
gave Miss Bonita scopo for her his
trionic powers, and then wo could
sec what a turor this lady would
create if she were providud with u
strong pin; suited to her particular
ability.
Lew Hearn is a real comedian. He
has a subtle conception of eccentric
character. Honever tries to overdo
and "is reallystrongest in the quiet
bits of high omedy.
The chorus was a good one and
the ballet the best we have seen here
this season.. There are other char
acters that qesorve mention, but suf
fice it to say that the cast was a
good ono throughout.
Miss BonitaMikes Medford and will
return here tho coming season in her
new play and then we will show the
lady what it means to have Med-
ford's full appreciation. E. M. A.
CAPT. APPLEGATE APPOINTED
TO TAKE INDIAN CENSUS
KLAMATH FALLS, April 2.
Captain 0. C. Applegate has beer
notified by the commissioner of In
dian affairs that he has been ap
pointed as special agent for the tak
ing of the census of tho Indians liv
ing in the state of Oregon. The ap
pointment came entirely unsolicited
and was a great surprise to the cap
tain. It is made, no doubt, on the
strength of bis record on file in the
Indian bureau in Washington. He
has not as yet received his creden
tials, but is expecting them daily.
The captain's duties will take him
over a great part of the state, since
he is to take the census on all of the
reservations and detached settle
ments. Ho will, while workiner in the
first census district, bo under the
direction of Census Supervisor Hen
dricks of Salem. In the second dis
trict his work will bo done under the
supervision of Seneca Beach, who
has charge of the census work there
It will require nearly three months tc
complete- tho work.
