STUART ROBSON AS GOLDSMITH
What the San Francisco Examiner
 Says.

Stuart Robson has come back after four years. and last night at the Col umbfa theater he was welcomed with applause that kept the curtain going up and down long after the proper close of each act.
 As Oliver Goldsmith, the popular ac- tor has a character that is perfectly suited to him. He plays the role ir d way that would have suited even pr. Johnson could he have saIt in the or chestIa and seen Oliver and himself as others. Including Augustus Thomas. author of the play, see him at this late day.
 Dr. Johnson might not have recog- nized some of the playwIight's simple language as his own. He might have curiously studied the 1900 representa- tion of his faithful Bosw-l without whom he wouldn't have been Samuel Johnson. He might or might not. have recognized th- make-ups of tine Ed mund Burke and the David Garrick a>; excellent. but he surely must have hur- ried sturdily forward to embrace his young friend and proteGe, the Oliver Goldsmith of Robson.
 As for the ladies in the history com edy. he would have to confess that for Goldsmith there was no prettier or daintier- Mary Hornech than Maude

Harry Corson Clark will appear at the Doris theatar Wednesday, Novem- Der 14. in What Did Tomkins Do?" What Did Tomkins Do?" the new cOmsdy by Randolph Hartley and George Taggart, in which Harry Cor son Clarke is starring this season, is a play brimful of American life, wit and humor. There is not an offensive line nor questionable situation in it, yet without being exaSgeratedly farcical, it provokes constant laughter. At the same time it has been declared to be no less true to human nature and the social vcrities than is the most serious problem play"

Southern California Dry.

Southern California crops for this
season it is feared are greatly damaged
if not ruined, is the report brought
from that section by Hiram Fisher, Of
Los Angeles, who is enroute to Alaska.
"The trouble in Southern" he said
to P. l. reporter, is that there has
been continued drouth. Instead o1
the customary eighteen inches of rain
which we usually get, we have only had
four and one eighth inches this season
and five and three-eiggths last. While
OF course, we rely to some extent on
irrigation, there is strip extending
twenty miles inland from the coast
which solely depends on the rainfall
for its crops, and as consequence
there is great deal of suffering there
this year. The fruit is whitening
flowers are dead, and the grass is turn
ing yellow. In twenty years there
has not been such condition in that
Country.

Gold From Oceans Bed.

1t is not improbable that the yield
OF gold in the Cape Nome region will
be increased materially by dredging
the sand taken from the bottom of the
ocean off the new gold fields. How
far out the gold-besring sand extends
is still problem; but there is no rea-
son to suppose that the mineral wealth
ceases at the mark of low tide. Per-
mits to dredge and work the sand for
gold between low water mark and the
three mile limit which marks the ex-
tent seaward of federal jurisdiction
and have been granted; and if these
show financially satisfactory results,
the ocean will become a scene of al
most as much activity as the land.
A feeble attempt was made to re-
fleet criticism upon the war depart
ment tor issuing these permits, but
the facts are set forth clearly by the
secretary. AS long as the dredging
operations do not interfere with navi-
gationsor with work on shore, they
will be granted freely to all who apply
for them. To search for gold on the
bottom is as legitimate as to catch
fish IN shoreward waters; and if there
is profit to be made at it, every one
should have a chance who will invest
the capital required for the expensive
machinery that must be employed.
1t is another opportunity free to all
who are in a position to take advan-
tage of 1t.
The mere suggestion opens enticing
possibilities of increased gold produc-
ton. l. the sea sand contains amounts
OF gold that pay a profit upon dred-
ging and treating it, there is an al
most limltless field of operations.
Along the gold-bearing coast strip
three miles in width may be exploited
by Americans, limited only by the
capacity of their machinery to work in
the deepening water. A modest re-
turn on each ton would produce vast
fortunes and add enormous amount to
the worlds supply of gold. 1t is only
speculation as yet, but it is one more
item in the list of destinations that
the frozen north offers to the adven-
turous seeker after wealth.-P.-I.

Soldiers Take A Lot Of Clothing.

WASHINGTON, March 19.-Colonel Pat
tersen, of the quarternaster generals
Office, today completed arrangements
for the shipment of about ST. 600, 900
worth of clothing and equippage to
Manila for the use of troops in the
Philippines during the next six months.
These shipments will be made by
way of New York and San Francisco
by the first available transports, and
are in response to cabled requisition
from the depot quartermaster at
Manila.
Among the principal articles cabled
for are 10000 khaki coats, $4,000
pairs of khaki trousers, 100000 pairs
of russet shoes, 10000 pairs black calf
skin Shoes 100000 pairs of cotton
stockings, $1,000 cotton undershirts,
10000 pairs of leggings, $4,000 cham
bry shirts, $1,000 dark blue flannel
shirts, $4,000 campaign hats, 10000
pairs nankeen drawers, $1,000 pairs
jean drawers, 10000 linen collars 10,
900 waist belts, $4,000 hat cords, 1900
tents, including 200 hospital tents,
1000 blankets, 10000 brooms, 5000
scrubbing brushes, 5000 barracks
chairs and 10000 light woolen stock
ings.
With the exception of the woolen
stockings all articles were in stock at
the various military posts, and will be
forwarded with no more delay than
necessary. Woolen stockings have
not heretofore been considered as an
essential part of a soldier in the tropics
and consequently we're not kept in
stock. These articles will be pur-
chased in the open market in San
Francisco and forwarded with the rest.
In addition to the articles already
enumerated 500 field ranges are called
for. Even these were in stock and
will be sent forward.
Under the policy adopted by the
quartermaster's department arrange
ments will be made Immediately to
replenish the stock in all depots up to
the maximum amount at the time of
the receipt of the mammoth order
from the Philippines.

The Richest Man.


Not long ago Andrew Carnegie, in
a speech at the Lotus club, New York
spoke of John D. Rockefeller as the
"rlchest man in the world" Carnegie
probably spoke with knowledge, but
the amount of Rockefeller's millions
Is not known to any one, unless it be
himself. In 1897, It was stated by
one of the counsel Of the Sta4dard
Oil company that Rockefeller's income
from the dlfidends on the Standard
stock held by him at that time was
$12, 600, 600. This year, it his holdings
be the same, bis dividends win be
$32, ,000, 900. And this is merely in
come, not capitalnor any other form

Hemloek Lumber For Philippines.


Lumbermen from all sections of the
United States are watching with much
interest the result OF recent shipments
OF Washington hemlock to the army
in the Philippines. Already one ship
ment has gone forward, and recently
another large order for sash and door
stuff, from the same wood has been
placed. The timber is to be used for
the construction of army barracks
and other buildings in Manila. The
interest created is not in the orders
themselves, but in the success or fail
ure of an undertaking which will have
an effect on the hemlock timber lands
of this state.
The government is experimenting
with different Coast soft wood in the
hope of finding one that will withstand
the rayages of the Filipino ant. The
California redwood and Oregon and
Washington fir have all been tried and
while the shipments from this state
have withstood the attacks better
than any other they have not been
entirely proof.
"The experiments OF the government
with hemlock in the Philippines is an
important matter to this state" said
John l.. Allen, lumber manufacturer
of Minnesota, who is largely interested
in Washington timber lands, at the
Butler yesterday. "The success ol
the undertaking means market fol
the millions of feet of hemlock in
this state that now is not being
worked.
"Lumbermen on the Coast have an
idea that hemlock is not good for lum-
Der. 1t may not be so saleable as fir
but if there was no fir in this state
there would be a ready market fol
hemlock. In no state in the Union
are there such mammoth hemlock
trees as here. They are giants, free
from knots, and will cut clear lumtel
almost any length and width.
s:Should the army experiments prove
that hemlock will withstand the ants
in the Philippines the price of Stun
page will advance 100 per cent. In
fact, it will become just as valuable as
fir, or nearly so. The army lumber
needs in the islands will be several
million ieet at once, and permanent
market for the product.
Eastern lumbermen who have ex.
amined the hemlock lumber ot
this state say that iii is wholly different
from that found in the East. It il
harder and better adapted to stand
the test it will be put to than any
similar wood. For this reason lum-
bermen are of the opinion that ants
will not attack t."-PI.

Bellingham Bay Bulb Beds.

| George Gibbs, the well-known florist
formerly of Orcas island, is rapidly
demonstrating the fact that Belling-
ham Bay can beat the world in grow
ing Holland bulbs. A visit to his
bulb garden at Fort Bellingham will
convince the most skeptical person
that Mr.. Gibbs is an adept in the
growing of bulbs and that this lucra-
tive business is destined to become q
leading feature of Bellingham Bay
progress.
Mr.. Gibbs has 100000 bulbs planted
In his garden. The garden covers an
area of two acres and is systematically
arranged in beds each 12xl00 feet in
size.
| A magnificent feature of the gar
| den at present is large bed of GRO
cuses, $500 in number, all in full
bloom, the colors being yellow, purple,
and lilac. There are seven varieties
of crocuses.
There are $4,000 hyacinth bulbs,
comprising 40 varieties. They will
commence to bloom within about ten
days.
The narcissus plants are, almost
ready to bloom There are 5000
bulbs ready to burst out in full bloom.
The are 25 varieties in this collection.
The tulips will begin to bloom in
about ten days from now. There are
100000 bulbs of tulips and over 70
varieties.
Mr.. Gibbs also has several thousand
bulbs of English peonies and English
and Spanish iris.
Mr.. Gibbs is very enthusiastic over
the prospects of the growing OF Hol-
land bulbs on Bellingham Bay. "The
world can not beat us in the growing
OF bulbs" said he to the reporter of
the BLADE Tuesday afternoon. Given
Holland, famous for growing bulbs,
can not excel us. We can beat Hol-
land both in production and beauty OF
color and bloom. Whatcom county
can grow the finest bulbs in the world
We are only in the A. B. G. of the
bulb business now, but the day is not
far off when there will be thousands of
acres devoted to bulb raising in this
county. About $2,5O00,000 worth OF
Holland bulbs are imported into the
United States every year.
"We have the advantage here over
other bulb-growlng countries in the
way of cheap land, better climate and
best home market. The increase OF
bulbs here is wonderful. The tulips
increase 500 per cent, in year, the
narcissus 500 per cent. The mild
climate here is big item in our favor.
These beds were worked over the first
time in the middle of January. The
plants have not been injured by frost
and are now making phenominal
growths.
"a large company is being formed
in the East for the purpose OF establish
ing large bulb farm here" What

The following communication was

I have never regarded the opposition
this movement found on the part of Mr..
Merritt from the fact that it was
prompted by motives Of jealousy.
Laboring in the capacity of mission
airy among seamen. and under the aus
pices of the Mission Yacht Association,

accomplished is of more abiding
character than is realized in any Beth

only two from the present rooms. where
