pages of Wescotts book 10 the Stage.
The Ross-Fenton show that comes to
the Bijou next week is the strongest
vaudeville aggregation that will appear
at the theatre. or has appeared there.
this season.
The statement seems to be a sweeping
one. but it is, nevertheless, true, and
theatrical wiseacres who know the rops S
have read Of the combination Of talent
to appear here with e good deal of in
terCSt.
Manager Jake Wells said last night
that his advices from Norfolk wire that
the business has steadily increased all
the week. and the largest audiences
ever played to at the Cranky have as
stumbled in that theatre this week. In
Norfolk, as in Richmond. said Mr.. Wells.
there is little hesilancy about accept
ing vaudeville, and the opening house
was little shy, but since that time the
business has grown until it is tremen-
dous. On Thursday night the receipts
were the largest ever prayed to In the
history Of the Norfolk theatre and en-
thusiasm was simply unbounded. It
looks as though Mr.. Wells had picked
big winner this trip. and playgeers Of
Richmond have Eat in store.

TACOMA'S BIG SAWMILL.
With the Single Exception of One in
Norway II Is the Largest
In the World.

At Tacoma visited sawmill saidt to
have greater capacity than any other
in the United States. and, with one ex-
ception lin Norway, the greatest in
the world, writes Ray Stannard
Baker, in The Conquest of the For
est" in Century. 1t is in fact. two sep
arate mills, covering a wide. low fiat.
with docks on the sound where ships
can be loaded at the door of the yards,
Here the logs from the camp which
wevisitedare sawed. They are dumped
from the railroad cars into ponds of
water and held until the mill is ready
TO cut them into lumber. Mr.. Royce
showed me through this great estab-
lisment, with its devices for handling
enormous logs of fir and cedar, hem
lock and spruce. which come to il daily.
Nearly very step in the long process
il performed by some human-like ma
chine. Logs weighing many tons are
handled like jackstraws, pulled out of
the water, whirled over, lifted about,
gripped. stabbed off. turned again cas-
lily, and, directed by the swift and sure
judgment of the expert sawyer, driv-
en- through band-saws of great gang
saws. cutting 90 boards or more at once.
and finally trimmed to certain lengths
everything moving at once, smooth
ly, with absolute exactitude. In Is
minutes from the time the Jog enters
the mill il has been reduced to lumber
of several grades; the poor parts have
been whitfield up into lath and shin
giles. the slabs have been shot out on a
