FIRE IN The MOUNTAINS

PINE TAVERN
Summer Resorts Escape Damage But
the Water Shed Has Already
Suffered Great Injury

PASADENA. (Office of The Herald, IS
East Colorado StreeD, August H.-The
mountain fires are still burning. This af-
ternoon the fire swept over the ridge. and,
picking a course which had been left un-
scathed by the fire Of a few weeks ago,
crept toward Alpine tavern, despite the
fact that the ten section hands in the
steady employ Of the road fought all night
to keep it back. Fifteen more mem went
up this afternoon to fight this portion OF
the fire. The men say that last night
they were in great danger Of losing their
lives. having been sent down into a can
yon surrounded by fire. Feeling that their
boss was unnecessarily endangering them,
some OF them threatened to quit. More
men will be sent up tomorrow. The bust
ness end Of the fire is no longer in the vi
entity of Wilson's Peak, but the only thing
which saved the camp was the calmness of
the breezes. One hundred and fifty men
are fighting fire at this point. and have the
fire under fair control, though ten more
more men were telephoned for tonight to
go up in the morning. Manager Wilcox
telephoned down last night for men to go
up to the fire by way Of the Tejunga. AT
that end of the fires course Strawberry
mountain has been burned over, and the
watersheds which furnish the water sup
ply ., the entire Iejunsa valley are endan-
gered, or may by this time be ruined. The
fire has gotten beyond Switzer's camp,

SENATOR MAsoN's REPLY.
How the Hon. "BiIIy'' Would Fight
the Furious Spanish Editor.

WASHINGTON, March Ex-senator Ma
son yesterday smilingly received the con-
gratulations of his friends on the magnifi-
cent way in which he had risen to the occa-
sion and picked up the gauntlet thrown
down by the naughty hand Of the Madrid
editor. There was not shadow of fear on
Senator Mason's rudy face as he discussed
the great question that now broods over
the Senate chamber. He cares nothing for
the fame Of the marquis rs fire-eater and
duelist, and does not consider for moment
the number of headstones planted in the
quiet graveyard kept by that parsonage.
He is ready to face him and 10 do or to die.
The fac. that the marquis has assumed the
right of the challenged party seems to ag-
greyo the senator slightly, but he Is will
Ing TO concede this IN order TO get the in
suffer IN reach OF his good right arm. He
said: 1T is lucky for him tsisgt he chose
swords. II he had chosen pistols ! intended
TO have his measure taken and ckalked OFF

Rear Admiral Charles Beresford. MEM
Der of Parliament for York city, strongly
urged that Great Britain should acquire

we will be comfortably fortified against any

it will be paid. There will be no war;

LAFAYETTE, Ind, March 1.-THE per-
Torrance of Racine's "Athalie" tonight by
the pupils Of Madame Pauline Mariotte
Davies, of Purdue University, brought to-
gether in the comfortable quarters of the
Lincoln Club an audience that might truly
be called representative. The leading clergy
men of the various denominations, the most
prominent bankers, doctors, lawyers and
politicians, not to forget the ladies that set
the pace in social matters, were all there.
1t was evident that all were determined to
show their appreciation of the fact that
after not quite two years Madame Davies
has been able to show the city a scenic
production Of one of the masterpieces Of
French dramatic literature. the first per-
Torrance of it's kind in Indiana.
The cast was as follows: Athalie, Queen
of Juda, Mrs. Manigold Lindeman; Joas
(heir to the throne of Juda), Joad (high
priesD, Josabette (his wife), Zacharie and
Salomette (their children), Abner "a gen.
eraD, Nathan ian apostate priesD, Nabal
(his friend), Agar Qady in waiting to
Athalie), the Misses Lahr, Born, Case,
Barnes, Linn, Hull. Bruce, Meharry and
Cowing. OF these only Mrs. Lindeman is
not Purdue student, but former pupil
of Madame Davies, from Milwaukee who
Athalies as Madame Davies found it i'm
possible within the short time at her dis
poSal to drill a sufficient number of Purdue
girls for all the parts.
The performance was in every way cred
liable one. Creditable, that is, first of all
to Madame Davies, whose energy and rare
knack Of imparting knowledge could alone
have accomplished so much in so little time,
but no less SO to her pupils. That Mrs.
Manigold Lindeman carried herself with
such ease and dignity as the queen and
spoke lines fOrcpfnllV while
Hghtful to witness, not perhaps, so difficult
of explanation considering that she had
played the part before at Milwaukee. But
only extraordinary application, along with
quick perception, could account for the
striking achievement of Miss Jessie Born
Miss Nathalie Lair, Miss Gertrude Case
and Miss Edith Hull in their long and diff
cult parts, of which they knew nothing
whatever at the beginning of last Septem-
performed them with no less ease and con-
scientiousness. If Miss Jessie Born and Miss
Nathalie Lair are singled for especial
praise it may be that their parts offer par
ticular opportunities for exhibition of dra-
matte talent. At any rate, such charming
acting as Miss Lair furnished in the scene
where Athale questions the wise little
prince or such dignifed pathos as Miss Born
threw into the great outburstS of the high
priest raised the performance high above
ordinary theatricals.
The singing of the chorus, at which Miss
Ruth Putnam and Miss Millspaugh, of the
music department Of Purdue had assisted
Madame Davies, was satisfactory. All in
all, the performance was very successful
and fully justified the enthusiastic applause
which followed it throughout

Speaking of antiquity brings UP the in
applicable American fad of using coats of
arms. 1t reached a climax not long ago,
when a youthful daughter Of a wealthy
German brewer visited an engraver's office
and, looking over the books on heraldry
finally ordered one coat of arms for her own
use which combined the prettiest features
of those belonging the three great
English houses. Her youngest Sis
ter not to be outdone, ordered
one for her mote paper and books
which contained devices from five old Eng
lish houses, not one of which conceded with
the others choice. The amazed engraver
endeavored to expostulate. but neither of
the young women would listen to his argu-
ment. They liked the coats of arms" they
said. Anybody could buy them who wanted
to. and they didn't propose to allow any
ridiculous nonsense to prevent them having
what pleased them: besides that, they
wanted them different, anyhow. so that
they wouldn't get mixed up.
This is on a par with that erratic London
genius who had on bis Monday note paper

Consul Johnson,s Criticism..

SAN FRANCISCO, March 16.--A. Bur-
lingame Johnson, United States consul at
Annoy China, has written a paper to the
Bulletin, in which he makes some very
startling statements regarding the condition
of affairs in China. He practically accuses
Germany of grabbing a large territory in
China on what he deems a trivial pretext,
and tells of the Russian occupation of Port
Arthur and England's protest He ridicules
Germany's Emperor and his brother, Prince
Henry, and, in relating the circumstances
of EnglandS objection to Russia's occupa-
ton of Port Arthur, says: 1T has been so
long since England fought a nation whose
men wore pantaloons that the sight of an
anticipated. enemy that is not dressed in
breech clout ,tunic or turbin causes palpi-
tation of the heart"
Mr.. Johnson's home is at Grand Junction,
Col. He was the secretary of the state
central committee Of Colorado during the
Mckinley campaign.
