A tentative working plan has been
adopted by the officers of the Institute

dowed with 100000 1t follows: To

The Berlin correspondent of the
New York Times says that. according
TO the Berliner TagebIatt, the minis
ter of education has issued new regu-
lations in regard to the admission of
foreign students at the Berlin tech
meal college. The Germans complain
that the foreigners crowd them out
of the laboratories and lecture rooms.
and that the foreigners are admitted
without any documentary evidence Of
previous education. The chief Offend
ers are Russians.
1t is now reported that the minis
ter directs that Russians are only to
be admitted II they can prove prev ious
attendance or matriculation at Rus
/ sian technical college. Other foreign
ers must produce a certificate of gem
eral education as we'll as proof that
they have attended technical COL
lege.
1t has also been decided, according
to the Berliner Tageblatt, that small
class of students called "hospitante,"

TUESDAY. MARCH 4, 1902.
! WHAT PEOPLE SAY !

Edward Fournier-Yes, John Cort,
manager of the Grand opera house at
Seattle, the theaters at Spokane, Helena
and Great Falls, has purchased Larson's
theater and placed it in the Northwest
theatrical circuit, assuring me that this
course can only tend to work for the bet
ter interests of Yakima and other towns
booked through this association. Mr..
Cort also recently closed contract with
the theater company at Ellensburg to
book their attractions for the coming
year. He assured me that the high
standard l have sought to maintain in
the way of attractions in the past will
not be discontinued, but that so long as
our patronage justifes 1t we shall have
none of the poor shows, and plenty of
the good ones. Further, Mr.. Cort will,
l think, add materially to the property
in the way of improvements, such as
draperies, better fire protection, and
possibly some alterations for the better
nent of our scenic and lighting equip
nent. In short, he is firm believer
in Yakima's stability, and the good re-
ports carried away by travelling man.
ayers have indirectly been the cause of
this change. Through his purchase I
have relinquished my lease of the prop
erty and placed myself under Mr. Cort's
direction. for how long time do not
know. can only say l hope to prove
worthy OF the continued good patronage
Yakima has seen fit to grant me in the
past. AS the better attractions usually
fare better here than the poorer ones, l
do not see why should not congratulate
myself in advance of the good things in
store for us under the new ownership.

ADJUSTMENTS.
e." The Christian.

"The Christian" Liebler & Co.'S ire
mendous success, is announced for an
engagement at D0son's on the night of
Wednesday, March 9Th. "The Christ
ian " has been called "Hall Caine's great
play" The only objection to that COM
pliment is that it is too limited in scope.
"The Christian " should be called the
peoples great play" for certainly no
more skillfully constructed, admirably
written stage piece has ever been pre-
scented to the theatergoers of America,
and certainly no other play has ever at
tanned the degree of success enjoyed by
"The Christian"
The play differs very materially from
the book, the chief resemblance between
them consisting of the influences which
surround and shape the lives and des-
TIMES of the principal characters and in
the general theme and moral. The play,
however, is an improvement on the book,
in that it has prettier, more satisfac-
tory denouement and is not burdened

which do not affect or impress its total
value as a production. The play tells
the story of the lives of John Storm and
Glory Quayle, pithily, pointedly and

to show the influences upon the life of
each which contributed to the final des-

situation and am now getting along the

which is about as good, if not better,
than that found elsewhere in the
country,
*x*
George S. Hough-I had pleasant
trip to San Francisco and other points
in that state, and return home with the
conviction that the northwest is better
place to live in. The people up here
have more get up in them than those in
California, especially in the smaller
towns. Everything outside of San Fran
cisco seems to be 20 years behind the
times. The people are asleep, as it were,
and 1 have no doubt they will live to a
good old age by being so. There is not
near the life there that exists here
among the people. The smaller places
up here can give them all pointers. And
as to Seattle and San Francisco the for
mer place can discount the latter two to
one in hustle. While in Frisco 1 met
John Michels and wife, who had just
returned from Honolulu. They expect
to return here about March Is. In the
same ship that they came over in were
Court Meyer and his sister Mrs. Marshal
Scudder, who will also return here at an
early date. l came by ship to Puget
Sound and when left the harbor last
Monday the big storm was just setting
in. While it blew hard in the harbor
and wrecked some buildings, no material
damage was done to shipping craft.
When we got out of the Golden Gate the
storm did not bother us any, although
it followed us all the way up the coast.
When we came to Cape Flattery and the
straits everything was calm, ending in a
most pleasant journey.

fhe fire, which is though to have
started from sparks from an open
hearth, spread SO rapidly thai Mr..
and Mrs. Robertson found all means
of escape gone for the children, VIII
wele aslsep in another room, and
were compelled to jump from sec
ond-story window dressed only in
their night clothes in order to save
their own lives. The parents made
futile attempts to reach the children,
but were driven back by the flames.
and after the fire had subsidized some
what they were almost frozen before
aid came from neighbors. Mr.. RoL-
ertson CLAIMS the hearth fire was well
covered and that the fire which
started from lower floor. must
have been of incendiary origin.
The tragedy recalls the murder of
an old man named Kessler and the
burning of his house; also the burn
ing of the house of an old woman,
in which she and her grandchild lost
their lives, both of which occurred
several years ago in the vicinity of
this fire.
