Among the interesting old ladies of the
stage Is Mrs Jones, who was seen here
during the past season with Maude Adams
in 1.-THE Liatle Minister" Mrs. Jones Is
seventy-six years of age and has been
playing since she was eight years old.
Like Mrs. Gilbert, she is admirable in old
woman's parts. though she belongs to the
ranks of those excellent and conscien-
tious favorites of the stage whose success
is not of the brilliant sort. She is not
great actress but she has had long
and narable career and occupies an
envlous position among theatrical folk.
Mrs. Jones has no wish to die in the glare
of the footlights as Mrs Gilbert did; she
looks forward to a few years of peace
and retirement. And who can say that
she has not earned a rest.

Paul Neumann, the only surviving
son of the late Paul Neumann of Ho-
nolulu, was quietly married in Toronto,
Canada, on June 6, to Margaret Came
ron, fifth daughter of James Angus
Smith, capitalist of Halifax, Nova
Scotia.
The bride is one of seven sisters all
of whom are great social favorites in
their native province. Paul Neumann
is we'll known in local circles, having
spent most of his boyhood in Honolu-
lu. He is a graduate of the Science
department of Edinburgh University,
where he became prominent as an ath-
Iete and as the editor of the Student"
the University magazine, the editorial
chair of which in the past has held
such lights as Robert Louis Stevenson,
A. Conan Doyle and Robert Barr.
Neumann was to have graduated in
medicine in 1901, but the outbreak of
war in South Africa in 1899 caused the
British government to requisition his
services in the field as a member of
the Edinburgh University Volunteer
Medical Corps. He was invalided out
of service in October 190O but i'll health

THE EXPECTED HAPPENED.
Part of the Santa Fe Bridge Went Out
 With the High Water.

For once the expected happened
 and yesterday morning a good share of
 the repaired part of the Santa Fe
 bridge wcs missing and all that was
 left to tell the tale was the ties and
 rails which held together and formed a
 suspension bridge across the break. It
 was the north end of the bridge that
 went, the part that had been repaired
 by the driving of one pile in each
 place. The piles were very long and
 were placed in the deepest part of the
 channel. When the water had risen
 but 2 few feet the vibration was so
 great on that part of the bridge that
 no more trains were allowed to cross. Tuesday evening at g o'clock there was a curve of at least a foot over the deepest water and a short time later
 the bridge began to go out. MT. Cum mings, who lives near the bridge, said that he could hear it cracking all night i long, Yesterday morning no less than [ a hundred and fifty feet of the struc- ! ture was gone, all the long piles except three bents on the north end of the bridge. The river was high here yes l terday morning at daylight and kept | coming up all day. About 9 o'clock in | the afternoon the force of water be- | came too much for the remaining part l of the temporary structure and it fol

The reason of that being that now each evening from six o'clock until seven. an orchestra which might be termed Italian and not come far from the truth, dispenses music, both popular and classic and the table service is frequently hastened by a lively rag time air.

lowed the rest of it with a crash. Peo- pie had been visiting the river all day and at the time the last part of the bridge went there were a great many witnesses. They say that the north end of the bridge turned a little down stream first, while the other end of it turned up stream, it wobbled a nom ent and the whole thing toppled over
 Some of the timbers caught on the broken steel that had been left in the river bed but by far the greater part went down stream. Several large tim bers which were held together struck a pier of the M. & P. bridge with a thud that shook the whole structure. i Other timbers caught on another pier and more piled under them until it be- gan to assume a serious aspect. The l M. S- P. had a force of men on their l bridge all day yesterday keeping the drift and the floating timbers away from the piers and they managed with the aid of ropes and tackles to get the | lodged timbers loose before any dam age was done.
 The M. & P lost what track they had ! in the river bed and their pile driver is now midway in the stream surrounded by several feet of water. It was well tied to the cid bridge and that with its l great weight is expected to keep il | there.
 Yesterday afternoon late. the rivei
 at this point was just about where i
 stood during the high water in Jan.
 uary and it was slowly rising. On tho north side above the head gate of the
 Old Grand canal Mir. Cummings say
 that it is higher but that is likely du
 to it being backed up by drift. It wa so high yesterday that it was impos l sible to tell whether or not it was cut
 ting into the north bank as in places i was running over it but on the Mil Ter ranch it was up to it's old trick
 again and was playing havoc with tn remainder Of tie ranch.
