San Francisco at the time of the rush
to the Klondke The three other acts
are set in the frozen wilds of Alaska,
showing its glaciers crowned with the
Aurora borealis. Frank Gordon, the hero,
is a college professor instead of a preach
er. and Ruth Spottswood, the heroine, Is
unmarried until finally united to the man
she loves. This play founded on the most
dramatic and powerful of all Mr.. Dixons
novels, treats of the influence Of social
ism on love and character. 1t Is a pas
sionate defence of the sancity of the home
and plea for the glory and freedom of
individual manhood. It's tragic moments
are relieved by humor. #. G. Hamrick,
who was assistant manager of 1.-THE
Clansman" last year, will be Mr.. Dixon's
business manager for 1.-The One Woman"
When Miss Olga Nethersole starts out
for her long tour of the south, north and
northwest in the fall, her company will
be found to be so organized as to be
entirely independent of local conditions
In addition to the actors, there will be
an orchestra of ten pieces under a musi-
cal director a chorus of a dozen voices
and large number of what are know
as extra ladies and gentlemen" The
difficulties of securing suitable people to
act as supers are well known to all
managers on the road and so last season
Miss Nethersole. having been advised of
this instituted in all the theatres where
she played, a series of competitive ex-
aminations among her extra people,
awarding to one lady and one gentleman
in each city engagements to walk on
and understudy with her next season.
BY this intelligent scheme the distin-
guished actress is satisfied that her en-
sembles will be as complete as when her
plays are presented in New York, Chi
cago. Boston or Philadelphia At the same
time she feels that she is giving en-
enlargement and opportunities for study
to enthusiasts who have succeeded In
convincing her that they are at least pos
sessed of some degree of talent for the

from LeSueS weekly.
The religious denominations in common
with all other interests, suffered heavily
In the San Francisco disaster. Accord
ing to the published lists. nearly one hum
bred church buildings were destroyed,
including many of the largest and finest
edifices In the city. The Methodists alone
claim a loss of half a million dollars
worth of property, and several of the
other sects and denominations have prob
ably lost as much, and some more. How
to replace these buildings in the future
with others as good will be one of the
most serious and perplexlng problems be-
fore the church-going people of San Fran
cisco, many of whom have been almost
impoverished by their individual losses.
The difficulty of reconstruction will be
much greater here in many instances,
and the burden much heavier, than in
case of schools, which will be rebuilt
from the public treasury, or in the case
of business institutions which have a
large capital intact to draw upon.

CONFEDERATE VETERANS MEET
Largest Similar Gathering In History
of Tennessee.

Pulaski, Tenn, oct. 1O.-The an
nual reunion of the Confederate Vet
erans of the state held here today is
a memorable one, as members of all
camps and bivouacs in the old volun-
teer state are represented in the
gathering. The reunion is the largest
i'm the history Of the state. as 1t Is the
first time that the camps and bivouacs
have met together by arrangement,
though last year at Winchester the re-
union concluded with a meeting of the
camps and bivouacs jointly for the
purpose of appointing committees to
perfect a consolidation of the two or
ganzations of veterans and report at
the reunion this year.
Temporary organization Of the Ten
nessee Division, United Confederate
Veterans, was effected at a meeting
at the capital April 2S. 1905, when a
charter was obtained and officers
elected. All the camps and bivuoacs
were visited and the members urged
to join in this reunion in order that
the new organization might embrace
all confederate veterans in the Ten
nessee division and the result is the
biggest crowd of veterans that has
ever been brought together in this old
state.

A Salem correspondent reviewing
the question of redstrictlng the rep
representative and senatorial divisions
of Oregon, at the next session of the
legislature says:
One of the duties imposed upon the
next legislature by the constitution OF
the state is that of making new ap-
portionment of the state in senatorial
and representative districts, based up
on the census of 1905. This task will
be a difficult one and in the end quite
probable an unsatisfactory one, for
the reason that the census is generally
acknowledged to have been very in
accurately taken in several counties.
The figures are not yet complete
and may not be before the Legislature
convenes. The law does not fix n
time within which the census returns
shall be filed nor does IT require either
the county assessor Of the county
clerk to make footings on the census
rolls. As consequence, four counties,
Curry, Lake. Grant and Morrow, have
not vet sent In returns. though the
census was completed more than a
returns contained no totals.
The work OF computing totals has
therefore been thrust upon the office
of the secretary of state, and the clerks
in that department are spending their
spare time counting the inhabitants
of the state as shown by the records
made by assessors, who are required
to take the census.
From the returns general idea can
be CLEANED of the situation which will
be presented before the legislature of
1907, In making re-apportionment oil
the state. Labor Commissioner HofI
has made a hasty count of the popu-
lation of each county according to the
returns, and his figures are approx
mately, though perhaps not absolute
ly correct. The count is that of the
entire population, whereas the arpor-
tionment must be based upon the
white population.
With the exception that Mutnomah
Clatsop, Marion and some other west
ern oregon counties have more than
an equal population of Chinese. and
Umatilla and Klamath have more thar
their due proportion of Indians, tbs
entire population is distributed ii
practically the same ratio as the whit,
population.

ties, as computed by Mr.. Hoff, viii

As the federal census of 1900 show
ed total of little over $4,000, II Is
apparent that the assessors found a
total gain of approximately $4,000.
Section of article 4, of the consti-
tuition requires that the legislature
shall apportion the senators and rep
resemtatives among the counties ac-
ccrding to ration to he determined
hy computation. and that when any
county's population entities it to more
than one-half senator or representa-
tive such county snail be entitled to
a member FOR such fraction. Where a
county has not the population to en-
title 1t to n member it may be attach
ed to some adjoining county In forming
a district. No county can be divided
in forming district
Now, If 80 senators and 60 repre-
sentatives be appointed among coun-
ties having a total population of 463,-
5$S, the ratio of apportionment Will
be one senator for each 15,43i inhah-
itantc and one representative for each

New Apportionmcnt.

Referring to the ratio and the table
of population, 1t is seen, for example,
that Baker county now shares sem
ator with Malheur and Harney, where
as IL Is entitled to one alone, On the
other hand, Benton county has SEN
ator alone, although the census re-
turns do not entitle the county to that
power In the state senate. Marion has
two senator's and one joint but is only
entitled to two. BY strict construction
Lane Is entitled TO two alone, though
Il now has but one and one-third.
Multnomah, which has five alone
and two Jointly, is entitled to about
eight alone, unless the colored and
Chinese population cuts down the
white population too much. Union is
entitled to one alone. but shares with
Wallowa. Polk has one alone, but II
Polk and Benton were Joined they
would have scarcely more than popu-
lation enough to entitle them to one
senator.
Much the same situation Is present
ed with regard to representatives. Ma
rion has five, hut the census returns
entitled the county to only four
Clackamas has three and one Jointly
but Is only entitled to three. Linn ha,
three. but could very reasonably bt

with Lane, whihc Is entitled to NOR,
