SEATTLE PLAYwRIGHT's WORK.
"The Chinook" ms n Picture Drama
Wins Praise for Its Author.

One of the most pleasant social events OF
last week In Seattle was the production OF
the picture play. The Chinook" by Miss
Clara Louise Thompson. Of Minneapolis
for the benefit of the Seattle Red Cross
Society. The play itself proved bright:
humorous. with an agreeable contrast or
characters and an undercurrent Of tragedy
that served as a fitting background TO the
comedy. 1t has received fiatterng criti-
cisms from all who saw il. To the interest
in the play a zest was added by the nov
city OF its presentation.
"The Chinook was written by Joe
Blethen. a wellknown Seattle newspaper
man, and had a successful run in the East
about five years ago. The story passes
from a Montana mining camp by an easy
transition to society life of New York,
which Is depicted with a piquant touch OF
sarcasm. Mr.. Blethen's villain is not an
ordinary villain by any means He has
none of the bravado of the stereotyped
scoundrel. but is rather the ld-blooded
product OF modern business life. He Is the
incarnation of selfishness, without any OF
that recklessness and occasional bursts Of
generosity which make the usual stage
villain half a hero. The scene in The
Chinook" where he refuses TO save his
father from financial ruin is impressive.
Alternating with the selfishness of the
villain is the open-handed generosity of
his brother, the hero. The human element
is well brought out in the latter. HIS
sympathy with his younger brother. who
in his teens has secretly married girl OF
tender years, is brought out with fine eff
feet. There is a manliness in the heros
character that makes him the friend OF
the audience at once. Forgetting the
troubles Of his love affair and the dark
cloud cast on his character by the crime
OF another, he gives his whole fortune to
the father who allowed him to rest for
years under that cloud, when word
would have righted all, and thus saves
him from ruin.
The heroine is very womanly. simple,
tender and gracious
Most OF the comedy Is furnished by the
young couple who have secretly been mar
ried The girl shows great ability in man
aging her friends and furthering the prog
ress of the hero's wooing. She comes into
the tragic scenes Of the play like CLEAN
of sunshine. The rest OF the characters
are we'll portrayed and used by the author
to good advantage.
The action Of the play Is good. the differ
ent parts all working TO the climax IN
quick succession. Numerous incidents en-
liyen the story as the plot unfolds and
sustain interest TO the fall OF the curtain.

YUKON BREAKUP REPORTED
Ice Said to Have Gone Out May o,
Leaving the River Free for
Steamboat Navigation.

Passengers of the steamer A1-ki, which
arrived last night from the North, say a
rumor was current In Skagway May to
the effect that the ice in the Upper Yukon
broke up on the morning of that day, leav-
ing the river open TO steamer navigation
The report is strengthened by the follow
ing from the Daily Alaska Dispatch OF
Juneau. May 3:
1.-THE steamer Rosalie brings word from
Skagway that yesterday at a. m. the ice
went out OF the Yukon river and opened
navigation for 1900. This is an earlier sea-
son by nine days over 1893"
The Rosalie has not arrived from the
North, but she will probably reach port to-
day.
Capt Nicolson, of the Al-Ki, says he
heard that the lakes and other headwaters
of the Yukon were open. but that he knew
nothing of the river breakup.

Steamer Robert Dollar with nearly 40
gold hunters and !. 300 tons OF mining out
fits and supplies is on her way TO Nome.
She sailed last night at $50 o'clock. Fuliy
1850 people were at Yesler wharf 10 Wit
ness her departure Neither last season
nor this, up TO the present time. has liveller
interest been manifested in the departure
Ct a north-bound steamer. Just why 70
one seemed TO know. but yesterday every
body appeared eager to witness the sailing
Of the Robert Dollar.
1t may have been because OF the vessefs
unusually heavy passenger list Including
the crew she carries 457 souls. Her pdssen-
gers number $40 and her crew six y-fiv3.
But for the interference of the snip's Of
flcers and the police more would nave
gone.
No less than ten men smuggled them
selves aboard the vessel and nad 10 be
dragged off by the officers OF the law.
They were without tickets and did not
stand upon the order OF their going, but
their ejectment delayed the vessel more
than an hour In order to sift out the
stowaways every passenger was forced to
show his ticket as he went aboard. II was
a tedious task, but the intruders were final-
ly located and driven off the steamer
During the day, it is estimated fully
1000 people took a look at the Robert
Dollar 1t was Sunday and thousands
seized the opportunity 10 VISIT inc "iiaIl
and see the Nome steamer upon the eve
of her departure AS for the passengers
nearly half of them slept aboard the
steamer Saturday night and some did not
leave her throughout the day. Those who
remained ashore went down TO the wharf
and aboard the vessel early in the after
noon. There they remained for neatly five
hours before the lines were cast Of.
But it was good natured crowd, both
af1oat and ashore. The decks were crowd
ed with people who kept up animated con-
versations with their friends on the wharf.
Some were happy; others were sal. There
were heavy hearts and light. Not few
women wept and many a man repressed
his tears with difficulty. There were some
who appeared not in the least concerned.
They laughed and made merry as though
they were off for days outing.
The crowd appeared unwilling to leave
Hundreds fingered on the wharf after the
Dollar had backed far out into the bay
and turned her PROV to the north. They
stood waving and cheering announcement
to their departing friends.
