Burton Holmes Lecture.

alaska" will be the subject at the Co.
lumbia Theater next Tuesday afternoon
with which Burton Holmes, the lecturer on
travel will continue his all-America series
This "travel-taik'' will describe his jour-
neyings from Seattle through the Alaska
fjords to Sitka, and the glaciers, and thence
through White Pass down the dead waters
of the Yukon to point just below the
White Horse rapids. where he took his
steamer for the Klondike and Cape Nome.
En- route he will show his audiences the
beauties of the Fjords, with all that he
saw of scenic and human interest, the gla-
ciers. the salmon industry the Treadwell
Mine. Sitka, with its traces of Russian oc-
cupancy; icebergs, totem poles, and that
triumph of engineering, the railway over
White Pass. The still picture with which
this lecture is profusely Illustrated will be,
as usual finely colored. In addition to
these there will be shown a large number
of interesting motion pictures, among which
a panoramic view taken from a moving
train going through White Horse rapids
and the rapids in Miles canyon, are per-
haps the more thrilling.

Academy of Music.

Harris & Woods will present The Choir
Boy of st. Mary's," from the pen of Theo-
dore kremer at the Academy of Music the
coming week. The play tells the story OF
thu steadfast affection of Walter Bingham,
a choir boy, for his mother, who is placed
III a compromising position through the
envy and hatred of her enemies. The boy
is compelled to leave his mother as the re-
suit of a suit for divorce brought against
her by his father. The father is really a
kind-hearted, true man, but the false evil
dence of his wife's guilt seems to him 50
overwhelming that he refuses to believe IN
her innocence, and forces the separation OF
mother and son. The boy. however, runs
away and rejoins the mother, but is en-
ticed into the beltry of a church by the
supposed rector. who is in reality villain
OF the deepest dye and a twin brother of
the real rector, whom he has murdered in
Central India, and who had previously
made a will leaving his property to the
boy The choir boy is locked into the belfry
and the villain sets the church fire.
Just as the youth is about to abandon all
hope he is rescued by his mother who,
feeling intuition that something was
wrong. had followed him to the church. In
the last act the villain is denounced by his
woman partner in crime, who tears his
cassock flo him and reveals to the as
tcnished cnlookers the brand of crime

Columbia Theater.

David Warfed comes to the Columbia
next week in THE Auctioneer." the play
which has proven such a successful medium
for establishing Warfeld as a star under
David Belaseo's management. Warfeld's
popularity is wei established in Washing
ton and his portrayal of Simon Levi is re-
garded with unusual favor This IS the last
year Warfeld will appear in this play, as
preparations are now under way for the
product on of a new pece in the spring. In
the character of Simon Levi, the East Side
auctioneer, the star has an excellent vehIcle
to display his Versatile & fits. Simon Levi
is an eccentric Hebrew, with the keenest
desire to get the best of a bargain and
with aheart which seeks to distribute happi-
ness. Levi owns an auction store the
East Side in New York city. where he ac-
Quires smaiffbrtune and moves W III his
family to a new home on Lexington ave-
nue.. Here he gives a brilliant reception to
celebrate the engagement of his adopted
daughter, Helga, and the son of his old
friend, Mrs Egan. When the only Levi
as the eX-auctioneer has always been
known, comes into his fortune, h s first
thought is of his adopted child and her
happiness The story of his reverses and
final triumph makes a simple but sufficient
plot for a most entertaining character
study. David Belasco has provided the
most careful scenic equipment for The
Auct:oneer." The scenes p ctjlred will he

YOSEMITE IN WINTER.
Beauty of the Frozen Falls-A Tower
ing Cone of Ice.
rom the San Francisco Bulletin.

From the San Francisco Bulletin
The Yosemite Valley will be open tc
travel this winter. The few people who
have seen the beauty of the frozen falls
and snow-covered cliffs declare It far sur
passes the wonder of the famous scenery at
other seasons, The falls are unusually
beautiful They are not entirely frozen,
though the rocks on either side Of the LOO
foot drop are covered with ice to the depth
of several inches. Instead OF forming in
hanging icicles as it falls. the water strikes
the rocks beneath where 1t gradually builds
huge cone of ice, which before the winter
breaks reaches a height of from 400 TO 600
feet.
During the coming winter tourists will be
given the first opportunity to enter the
snow-bound valley. Up to the present time
there have been no means of transportation
in winter. owing to the difficulties of the
trip, but the railroads have been consider
ing the problem. and II has been decided 10

Passenger Agent Pillsbury OF TIE Santa

he has been looking over the ground anu
completing arrangements for winter travel.
From MERGED. the nearest point to the val
ley on the Santa Fe. stages are run daily
through the winter to Couterville, where
the snowfall is always slight. From that
point the mail is carried on horseback into
the valley three times a week I'm winter over
a trail which as it climbs the mountains is
snow.
The route from Coultervil!e 20 t.le valley
would be over this trail, which 5r ncbes

back, and the intention is to employ
patrol to keep the path open. From the
entrance to the Yosemite. which IS covered
with from four to six feet of snow for sew
eral months of the year sleighs viii be run
eight miles across the valley TO Camp
Curry, where the railroad will provide
commodations. This was considerable
problem, since the hotels close their doors
on November /, but Mr. Pillsbury found
suitable building. which will be converted
into a comfortable temporary hosiery. 1t
is a large frame building used for a store
house, about quarter of mile from Camp
Curry, and the work of turning II into
hotel will soon be begun.
The Santa Fe will retain about twenty
employees in the valley through the winter
to conduct the hotel and run the sieShs. 1t
is proposed to take parties in two or three
times week. The railroad officials believe
the experiment will result in considerable
travel and should 1t prove success the
Yosemite will be open every winter here
