GIFTED POLISH ACTRESS.
UADAME BERTHA KALICH rs
WLNNING FINE IN ENGLISH
SPEAKING PARTS.

Unfamiliar With English Language
Six Years Ago, She Has Now
| Mastered Our Speech-One OF a
Race to Produce Famous Players.
With so much interest focused on
happenings in Russia, it would be
strange indeed if we did not receive a
taste Of Russian drama. The leading
cities Of the country are now centering
their attention upon the Russian play
"Monna Wanna" the title role Of which
is being essayed by Madame Bertha
Kalich, a Polish actress who won fame
in the Yiddish theatres on the BoWery
in New York City
Madame Kalich mas not be considered
beautiful woman but through the nat
uralness of her acting she touches every
spark of humanity that CLOVIS in the
human breast. Six years ago she did
not know a word of English, yet her
mastery at the present time Of one Of
the most difficult of all speaking
tongues, ds remarkable. Not only does
she speak English well but she is fam
liar with five other languages-Ge
man, Polish, Russian, French and Yid-
dish. For years she has been acting
&C the Russian and Hebrew theatres
Of New York City. Her first appearance
IN an English speaking play was a
year or SO ago when she played the
name part in Fedora" Her earlier
performances were disappointing but
a. the end of fortnight she made
profound impression upon her audience.

TRAPPERS' PROSPEROUS TINES.
FurS Worth More Now Than For
Past Thirty Years.

The many trapperS operating along
the northern boarder will reap rich
harvest the present winter, meaning
many comforts, even luXurieS, in the
log cabins of scores of sturdy settlers
in the Wilds of the northern country,
who are mainly dependent upon their
traps during the cold months for a
livelihood.
The settlers and professionals in the
country directly tributary to the Great
Lakes look to mink, marten and otter
to make their trapping operations
profitable, and the pelts of these little
animals at present command higher
price than at any time during the past
thirty years, while there has been a
decided slump in the prices paid for
furs from the black, blue and silver
fox which bring only $50 each now,
where a year or two ago they were as
high as $500 apiece.
Last wi! ter $3.50 was considered
good price for a mink pelt, and it
wasn't more than a season or two back
that $3.50 was the highest paid for
single pelt of this kind. Now a choice
raw mink fur will bring S11, and a mar
ten pelt from SIS to $40, where Sc or 81
was paid last winter. An otter skin is
worth s22 just as it comes from the
trappers hands, which is away above
any price paid for more than thirty
years Quite few fisher are caught
through northern Minnesota and these
are worth from So to $40. Beaver are
very scarce in this state. They are
worth from 81 to SO each.
The higher prices paid for furs will
also prove a boon to the Minnesota

Evolution of Woman.

When Eve brought woe to all mankind
Old Adam called her woman.
But when she woo-ed with love so kind,
He then pronounced her woman.
But now with folly and with pride,
Their husbands pockets trimming,
The ladies are so full of whims
The people call them whiu-men.

A MUCH DESIRED
SCHEDULE CHANGE,
One Between Duranl and IChula--
Morning Train.

The Herald understands that the va
ZOO City Business League is handling {
complaint made by merchants
through the Committee on Railroads
Roads and Bridges with regard TO tn,
schedule OF the train running from Du-
rani to Tchula and the train from Gre
NADIA south by Yazo1 City, which ar
rives here at 9;i0a.m
AT present the Duant train reache.
Tchula one hour after the Grenada train
has passed there coming south via Yaaoo
City, and passengers for Yazoo City are
unable to reach here until the evening
passenger train al Z o'clock. II Gus
toners for Yazoo City derire to come
here from the Lexington road, they
must, under the present schedule, start
the day before, or come here at 6:55 p,
M, too late to trade and return home
same day. The Committee is asking
the Railroad Commissioners 10 order
the two trains referred 70 TO connect at
Tohula. II this is done passengers
from Durant, Owens Wells, Howard Sta
tion, etc, can leave home in the morn
ing, reach here at 9:ib a. M, and re-
turn at 5;i0 and connect at Tchula,
reaching home that evening. just one
day, with ample time here to transact
their business.
This action on the part Of the Bust
ness League Committee will be unani-
mously endorsed by she business people
OF Yazoo City, and as the trains re-
fered to have no connecting points at
any other places but Tchula, the Herald
firmly believes the desired change in
the schedule will be readily made. Il
only requires a change OF the schedule
Of the train between Durant and Tchula.
The Herald hopes the Committee will
push the matter.

WORK OF THE PRESS.
Il is Appreciated By YazOO CITY Bust.
ness League.

AAcN A+AuNAht
The Herald appreciates the following
action OF the Executive Committee Of
the Yazoo City Business League with
reference TO assistance for the Trade
and Carnival Week by the press
Press Appreciated.
Itisa fact that we cannot fail to ap-
preciate that public enterprise OF the
character Of the recent Trade and Car
niyal Week are made possible only when
with the corporation Of the local press
and promoted oy properly directed
newspaper publicity. The degree of
success attained by such events must
always depend upon the amount Of tall
ent and energy applied by generous
press. While Yazoo City and the Blu
siness League rejoice over the glorious
results OF its efforts on this occasion, as
upon the surprising success OF every
thing it has undertaken, II naturally re-
verts to the original cause and the pow
erful motive to produce these effects,
and must, therefore, at the same time
feel proud of the surprising excellence
of the newspapers.
The most creditable feature assoeia-
ted with the recent Carnival, and one
which has created the most favorable
comment abroad has been the boldly
extensive and the perfectly planned ad-
vertising campaign. To the superior
intelligence and faithful and untiring
energy of members Of the local press is
due the credit for this proud distinction.
So generously have they contributed all
the energy and talent at their command
and devoted the liberal quantity of space
to the interest of the affair, all of which
being in realty their stock in trade, and
according to the usual compensation
expected for such service from all but
enterprises OF this nature would have
exceeded in dollars and cents any other
expense Of the carnival. NOT only tiis
good work, but representatives OF the
local press are responsible for widening
the scope of this newspaper publicity
by enisting the corporation Of the
press all over the State and that of the
city papers which circulate in this sec
ton, which has been the means Of Civ
ing the affair such big send-off, and
are also due much credit for the excel
lent and effective manner of directing
the billboard and circular advertising.
The Executive Committee of the va
zoo City Business League therefore de-
sires TO express its sincere appreciation
OF this valuable and loyal service and
commend in highest terms the able man
ner in which the publicity has been han
