In South America every theatcr is

alone are permitted to sit In Chinese
theaters somewhat similar arrange
ment prevails. There are two Chinese
theaters in San Francisco, the princi-
pal one being the Washington street
playhouse. On entering one Of these
theaters, if a play is in progress, the
place is usually crowded by n horde OF
Mongolians, most of whom stand up,
though there are plenty of seats. There
is no distinction of location, and the
coolie may occupy a better place than
the merchant at the same price, pro-
viding he comes early enough. First
come, first served" is emphatic
ally the rule. Up near the cell
ing, on either side of the stage, are
boxes for the accommodation of the
women, who are not permitted to oc-
cupy seats with the men. The price of
admission is shilling for n Chinaman.

RICHARD HAKLUYT.
The Author of the "Great Prose Epic of tho
English Nation"

The Author of the "Great Prose Epic of the
English Nation"
In the days of Queen Bess lived Rich
ard Hakluyt, to whom England "was
more indebted for its American posses
sions than to any man of that age"
Not that he was statesman, soldier,
or even sailor. He was preacher. He
never saw the marvellous new world
But it was the passion of his life. He
melted merchants and noblemen to ex-
petitions and ''plautings." He knew
the "chiefest captains y y = and
best mariners Of England, ''and he
published their reports, together with
many other narratives, letters, transla-
tions, and treatises, in the great vol
ume of his voyages"
The voyages were written by marin
ers and captains, merchants and gen.
tlemen, mechanics and knights. They
tell of expeditions undertaken for
greed of gold, for thirst of adventure,
for hatred of Spain, for love of En-
gland, for the glory of God. They give
pictures of those wonderful times,
from Queen Elizabeth waving Frobish-
err farewell, to poor Job Hortop, gun
ner, sitting down in his old age to
write the wocful tale of his labors and
troubles.
Hakluyt's Voyages" have been called
''the great prose epic of the English
nation" Charles Kingsley's "West-
ward Ho!" is largely drawn from them,
and may well be read in connection
with them for understanding of the
times.
Sir Walter Raleigh, brilliant courtier
and soldier as he was, was mariner as
WELL The new world filed his imag-
nation, and seemed to promise him ad-
venture, gold and fame. He sent
thither various expeditions. With sew
eral he went in person, notably in the
romantic search for the land Of gold

A California Plan.

SAN FRANCIsco, June est is pro-
posed here as practical solution of the
gold stringency that the federal gov
eminent withdraw all restrictions on
hydraulic mining, which it Is believed
would have the effect, if done immedi-
ately. of contributing five millions in
gold before winter. Interviews have
been had with a number of prom
inent mining men, all of whom
support the practicability of the
scheme. Speaking on the sub
ject, Gen. Dimond, superintendent,
says 1t is entirely feasible and that
the local mint, thoroughly equipped,
could handle the gold.

Danger is near when the kidneys grow in

with Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, which
unqpestionably averts Bright's disease, dla-
betes gravel and other ruinous maladies
attributable, in the first instance, to dor
mant condition Of the kidneys and bladder.
A healthful impulse to the performance OF
the functions Of these organs Is speedily
communicated by the Bitters, which like
wise removes constipation, malaria, liver
trouble and dyspepsia.
