PLAY REQUIRES
STR0R6ER CAST
Virginian, Splendid Play, , Suffers
With Georflb'keily In the Title fofe
Youthful Actor Could , Not For
get the Ego.
It is not every j-ood story that
tlmt.tliaigijiipittd in n tfry
Ja npt nj ways, prnotifafile" for stage
action. IIottcv "Jhgiriaian" has
a plot with sufficient dramatic in
tensity to form a strong western
drama. It is true the cowboy ijja
character that lips been workcdjfcojne
what 'overtime of flaie, hut western
Jtfo lias its (dinrrrCnnd 'he flaijnel
slurt hero stifl eompells ournp"pluuse.
There is one thing, however, about
''tho Virginian"; it must have a strong
Virginian to make tho piny go, and in
last night's cast, Owen Witor's hero
was tho weak brother.
Mr. George Kelly is a young man of
good physique, but as an aotor he has
started wrong; he is affected in both
speech and manner; his articulation
is very faulty; his voice is unmusical,
throaty and gutteral, nnd he loses his
audience tho moment he opens his
mouth. Ho shows a Btudiedj con
sciousness, in his noting. IIo must
forget Mr. Oeorgo Kelly. IIo is mak
ing the mistake of too ninny of our
young actors soil' centered.
Mr. Kelly, you must learn that art
is a jealous matrons; you cannot woo
this goddess and your own ogo at
tho sumo time. Take the advice of
some older actor ; ho will tell you
where you are in wrong. Your pro
fession is a noblo one, but you must
nppronch it with uncovered bond.
Miss Forbos as the Vermont school
teacher was, mothinks, vory good, but
her part depends so absolutely upon
tlmt of the Virginian that sue must
suffer for his ahortoouiiiiKS. The rot
of tho cast wns well suited to thoir
parts. Thoy are all notui-s of experi
ence. Mr. Russell did some lino work in
tho lust act; Mr. Conway made a
Plrong part of Stove; Mr. 1 Jutes and
Mr. Loydou wore also prominent in
their parte. The play was woll fctngod
and drew a good house,

PORTLAND CEMENT A
THE beginning or tho twentieth oonlury is rightly
called the beginning of the cement iige. There is
no material which can be put to so many uses as the good
quality of cement which is
more improved processes. It is in mauy cases taking the
place of steel, wood, brick and stone, and even asphalt
and other paving materials. And while it. requires a large
investment to equip a first-class cement plant, there is
perhaps no business that will pay such substantial divi
dends as the manufacture of Portland cement.
Lime, shale and coal are the throe essentials, and' the.
l?ogue river valley is particularly fortunate in havingMlll
of the materials in close proximity to each oth.er for the
manufacture of this most useful article of commerce.
There is a limestone, almost pure carbonate of lime, carry
ing but 40-100 of one per cent of magnesia, and a shale
very rich in silica-,' alumina and iron. Deposits arc found
here in inexhaustible quantities, and in close proximity
to the railroad.
"With the later methods of manufacturing cement, they
use the revolving cylindrical kilns. The cylinders, or
drums, vary in size from fifty to one hundred feet in
length, and from five to eight feet in diameter. The fuel
required for burning cement in one of these modern kilns
must be either gas, oil, or coal ground very fine and blown
in bv means ot a blast.
Close to the limestone and shale are large deposits of
coal high in volatile carbon,
This, cbal is the perfcc.t fuel
be-nad-atyery reasonaluo,rates, or tracts ot land may be
boughtMiiiderlaid with coal at a verv moderate price.
The Power best adapted
machinery is electricity, tiiid
tire . united' btates wheijo, there is such convenient and
abundant "water. 'power for producing electric energy.
There af'O now two electric plants and a third being built.
Power is supplied both from the Rogue and the Klamath,
consequently power can be furnished at low rates from
plants already established, or electric plants may be in
stalled on the Rogue river in close proximity to the cement
materials.
It is acknowledged by competent eugineers and ex
perts that there is perhaps no place in the United States
so well suited to the successful manufacture of a high
grade of Portland cement as

for the engineer, Mr. Van Vaetor, to
take on a supply of water and then
hurried on to Derby, where live sad

on which to ride to their destination.
While they waited for water thoy till

shook bunds with ,the few who had
assembled to. meet him. It was not
generally known, that the party was
coming out at that time, so there
were only about 2.1 men nnd two
