Los Angeles Theater.- Laughter loving
play-goers welcomed the advent of Miss
Emily Bancker and her really clever COM
pany of comedians last evening. Our Flat
is one of the funniest farce comedies
seen here in some time. 1t is full Of huge
fun from beginning to end. A genuine
surprise was the delightful work of the
charming young comedlenne, Emily
Bancker: her success justifes her appear
ance as star. She has beautiful face,
a splendid presence while Oh the stage
and compels one to watch Der every
movement She dominates the scenes
without seeming to realize it. This is
one secret of her great success. In the
technicalities of her art she is strongly
accomplished. bit she is never artificial
because she possesses the invariable power
of artistic control and she has splendid
voice, strong, vibrant, ympathetc. per-
fectly modulated and capable of adapting
itself with particular facility in strong
passages. She exhibits an excellent taste
in dress and wears some beautiful gowns.
The play, Our Flat, is "a comedy OF the
broadly farcical type which has been lik
ened to Charley's Aunt f1r the reason that
it makes people laugh long and loud by
the simplicity and righteousness OF its
story. 1t was written by Mrs. Musgrave
anu mas Deen Il great success Ill LONDON.
where it ran for three years at the Strand
theatcr. The story deals with the efforts
of II young couple who have married
against the wishes of their parents t.
maintain fiat. As the husband is Il dra-
matte author. he has only moderate in
come. The young people are put to their
wits end to meet the demands of their
numerous creditors from whom the furn-
iture has been purchased on the INSTALL
ment plan. The most unique scene ever
put upon the stage is that in which the
Hat is stripped of furniture and redeco-
rated b. the nimble fingers of Miss
Bancker, assisted by her valuable SER
want, in an almost magical way, out of
soap boxes, kitchen utensils, barrels,
bath tubs, etc. The effect is marvellous.
The music is bright and catchy, es-
pecially the duet by Miss Bancker and
Mr.. Ricketts,, in the third act. Each
member of the company seems especially
fitted to the character allotted to them,
Mr.. Parsons admirably playing the hus-
band. Mr.. Tom Ricketts, seems an ideal
Nathaniel Slower. while Philip IL. RyIey
was simply howlingly funny as the ui-
fortunate actor. His makeup and dane.
ing were revelation and if we mistake
not we will hear from this young man
before long. Miss Lee Jarvis as Bella
coul not be improved upon. There will
be another performance tonight.

ANAHEIM AND PROGRESS

We hope the enthusiastic Inauguration
of an electric lighting system at Anahcim
the other evening is significant of an
awakening from the apathy into which
that once live town seemed to have fallen.

RAILROAD DOINGS.
Work on Flavel Line-Built without
Bonds


Bonds.
Engineer Jameson with a force of
men, yesterday went to Warrenton to To-
cate the permanent line of road to Fla
vel, where work will soon commence.
1t is a fact well worth remembering,
that the former attempts to build the
Gobce railroad by the Union Pacific and
Others fell through because of their in
ability to sell the bonds of the proposed
road. Times were hard and the Eastern
and European financial markets were
closed to Western railroad schemes, and
the financiering of even small railroad
was almost impossible. The present road
VIII be built by Mr. Hammond without
the sale of a dollars worth of bonds.
The financial markets on railroad securi-
ties both at home and abroad are little
improved and 1t is a difficult matter to
interest capital in any such enterprises as
the Astoria railroad. The feat has been
accomplished and Astoria will get her
road.
Much talk and great deal Of surmis-
ing has been INDUCED in as to the out
come of the Goble and Oregon Pacific
railroads and as to Mr. Hammonds plans
in relation thereto. That gentleman says
If proper connection cannot be made at
that point with a transcontinentll rail-
road he will Build the line dnto Portland
where connection can be made. AS to the
Oregon Pacific, that line win be put in
first class condition, necessary better
ments to roadway, additions to rolling
stock, and Improvements in terminal ia
cilities will be made 1t is quite likely
that extensions of this line in Oregon will
be built, but Mr.. Hammond is not con-
structing transcontinental systems nor
any great systems of railroad in Oregon.
The construction work, Improvement and
extensions Contemplated win be of the
utmost benefit and Importance to the
state of Oregon at large, and the Colum-
oia valley and Astoria particularly, and
will be of greater financial benefit than
would be the building of another trans
line.
One matter of great immediate import
lnce to Astoria is the location of the
depot and switching yards for the con-
iuct Of business of the road in this city.
The committee having this matter IN
charge should sac to 1t that all differences
personal feeling and petty wrangles are
buried out of sight and decision reached
at once. This Is one of the most i'm |
portant features now to be dealt with |
and cannot be settled too soon. Seattle
In her usual energetic and business like |
manner donated and arranged in few
days time, the most ample and complete |
railroad terminal facilities in the north
west coast, and surely Astoria cannot ar |
ford to he behind Seattle in these mltters |
at the present juncture.

FROM THE BEACHES.
sreclai Correspondence.

Special Correspondence.
Gearhart Park, August ], 1895.
A very pleasing incident of camp life
at Gearhart was the singing Of patriotic
songs by Mrs E. E. Coovert, of Vancou-
yer, Wush. Her rendition Of the Star
SpaLged Banner" and columbia, the
Gem of the Ocean," being very inspiring.
Lost evening Tuesday, a mock court
martial was held at the camp, affordins
much diversion to the many visitors.
cot was placed near the flag pole, under
which a man was placed, piece OF car
pet was then laid near the cot, in such
a position that the man could give 1t
vigorous pull. The prisoners were then
brought one by one from the guard tent
and placed before the judge advocates
they being unconscious of the dangers
of the innocent looking carpet on which
they were standing.
AS each man pleaded guilty he was
summlrily ordered to be shot and as
sentence was given the carpet was pulled
and a gun fired, the result being a much
mirth-affording tumble for the prisoner.
Needless to say the crowd thoroughly en-
joyed the sport.
DR.. II. A. Barmore, son of the genial
host of the Hotel Gearhart with his
friend, DR.. e. Il. Erhardt, of San Fran
cisco, is here visiting. Both gentlemen
are good musicians and no doubt will
prove a valuable acquisition TO Gear
hart society.
The bowling alley, which was recently
completed, is proving a big success. Much
credit is due the management of the hotel
for placing such an attraction on the
grounds.
MISS b. Blagen and Mr.. c. II. McIsaac
are the champion bowlers so far.
The guests of the Gearhart hotel are
on the qul vlve of expectation, owing to
the fact that Mr.. Barmore, the manager,
has promised them big surprise, those
acquainted with the gentleman realize
that rare treat is in store tonight

TILDAlMOOK CABLE.

1t comes from good authority that at
last Tillamook Rock Is to be connected
by cable with the rest of the world and
that, at very early date. Next Tues
day, so 1t is said, one of the lighthouse
tenders will commence and lay the cable
from the rock to Indian town, directly in
shore from the rock. From the beach
the line wifi run to Elk Creek, thence
over the toll roads to a connection with
the government line, already built from
Seaside to Fort Stevens The line from
Stnside to Bald Hill will be abandoned
1t Is thought that by building new line
via Elk Creek 1t win be more easily kept
in repair during the winter time, as the
maiicarrier goes over the road twice
each day. Stations will probably be
put in at ELK Creek and Seaside, both for
the convenience of the public and for
the purpose of testing the line Hereto
fore a difficult problem for the engineers
to solve, has been the manner in which
to connect the cable with the rock so
that 1t would withstand the violence of
the heavy seas during the winter months.
1t has at last been decided to extend an
arm from the rock a sufficient distance
so that the cable win be free from its
rough and ragged edge, and to hold it in
its proper place 1t will be secured at a dis
tance from the rock by a heavy anchor.
Telephone instead of telegraph as orig
inally intended will be used, thus saving
the expense of an operator on the rock.

Scarcely Doubt Now Exists That Isaac-
son Was Drowned

Charles Isaacson, who was employed on
the lightshtp and who 1t is supposed was
drowned last Sunday, was about IS years
Of age and unmarried.
Captain Cam said yesterday that he
left the ship last Sunday in one of the
small boats to take boat ride Mr.. Cam
tod him not to go far from the lightship
as the weather looked threatening, and
unless he was a good swimmer 1t would
be dangerous. He replied that IL he did
not get back, the boat would. He then
pulled towards the bar He was some
four OF five miles away when last seen by
those on the lightship and appeared to
be returning, The storm which the cap
tain had warned him to be careful Of
overlook him, and they could see him
making frantic efforts to pull for the
ship, finally both boat and occupant dis.
appearing from view.
Mr.. Cam arrived in the city Tuesday
evening, and yesterday morning left for
Fort Candy, to see IL anything is known
at that place concerning the fate OF the
unlucky man. Mr.. Cam says that while
he believes he was lost, there Is stil a
chance that he might have reached a
place OF safety. The captain was expect
ed buck last evening but at 10 O'Clock
had not returned and the result of his
visit is not known.

have greater advantage over the dealer
