Unfamiliar With English Language
Six Years Ago, She Has Now
| Mastered Our Speech-One of q
Race to Produce Famous Players
With so much interest focused on
happenings In Russia. it would be
strange indeed If we did no. receive a
taste Of Russian drama. The leading
cities OF the country are now centering
their attention upon the Russian play
Norma Wanna" the thle role of which
is being essayed by Madame Bertha
Kalich, Polish actress who won fame
in the Yiddish theatres on the Bowery
in New York City.
Madame Kalich may not be considered
a 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, is remarkable. Not only does
she speak English well but she is fam
tliar with i've other languages-Ge
man, Polish, Russian, French and Yid-
dish. For years she has been acting
at 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
at the end Of fortnight she made a
profound impression upon her audience.

MADAME BERTHA KALIcH

So far this is the story of Norma Wanna
for the American people are not ac-
customed to the mannerisms and act
ing of the Russian plays.
Madame Bertha Kalich is tall and
OF the brunette type usual to the He
brew, with eyes that while most express
sive, can hardly be said to be winning.
She cannot be classed as beautiful,
but her art has a mimicry which is
sure to bring fame to her. Critics lay
great faith in her possibilities as an
actress. They believe that after thor
ough schooling on the American stage,
the requirements of which are far diff.
ferent from those of the Russian, she
will become famous, for she comes of
q race which has achieved wonders.
And when we encounter marked talent
in the Hebrew race no one living can
predict how many rungs of the ladder of
fame may be traversed successfully. The
greatest actors, not only of the present
age but of the past, have been and
are Jews. OF the women we have from
Rachel to Bernhard, and the men
range from Dawson to Edwin Booth,
while passing reflections may be given
to the ability Of David Garrick, Mrs.
Siddons and host of others in whose
veins were some drops of Oriental
blood.
Bertha Kalich's appearance in Chi.
cage was greeted with an outburst of
enthusiasm which continued through
out the many weeks of her perform
ance there. Such well-known critic as

She is now an actress of peculiar and
uncummonly attractive qualities and
gives every promise Of becoming In a
few seasons one Of the most notable
women on the American stage. Watch
ing her during the week has brought
conviction that she Is the possessor
of remarkable talents and that these
talents are susceptible of developing
and shaping which can but place her
high In the euteem Of a large class
Of the best theatre-goers and add an
other great artist % the small list OF
really gifted players that our stage
can boast. She has the power indis-
pensable to any artist who Is to endure
ana whose work Is to be OF any wide

Congress for forestry OF $4,000. Since
then forestry division has been advanc
ed into a separate bureau of the Depart
ment Of Agriculture, employing over
800 men and having an annual appro
priation from Congress of upwards oil
one-half a million dollars. Fully q
million acres of forest lands in the
eastern part of the United States have
been turned over to the Bureau OF
Forestry for management on practi'
cal and scientific basis which will en-.
able the cutting of the forest for lum.

over 00,000,000 Of the acres of COVER
ment Forest reserves in the west have
also been turned over to the Bureau
of Forestry for administration. 1t Is
probable that at least another $4,000,
600 acres of public timber land will be
placed in federal reserves.
Secretary Wilson in his opening adj
dress at the recent annual meeting OF
the American Forestry Association in
Washington, uttered a clear note of
warning against the wholesale reduc-
ton Of the woodland area in the
country
mo nation on earth is as successful
in the work of destroying its forests az
the United States" he declared. "The
indiscriminate mutilation of the forests
must be stopped the matter has be-
come one of national interest which
can not much longer be ignored by the
people or by our legislators"
After advocating the broadcast kind
of protective forest policy, he touched
on the subject of reforesting certain
sections. He thought that every day
should be an arbor day, that every year
should mark a notable advance In tie
effort to recover lost ground.

600 acres nor stop at 100000 acres,
but should plant 100000 acres in
trees, and this would be, viewed from
several points, the very best investment
which the United States ever made. 1t
would be paying, money investment

tremendous help to our agriculture.
The price Of merchantable timber Is in
creasing with great rapidity, while
every one knows the very beneficial

Another address before the Associae

statement Of the great necessity of
prompt action to protect the forests.

TRARPERS' PROSPEROUS TINES.
Furs Worth More Now Than For
Past Thirty Years.

The many trappers operating along
the northern boarder will reap a ricI
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 a 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 year or two ago they were as
high as 5000 apiece.
Last VIII ter $3.50 was considered a
good price for a mink pelt, and it
wasn't more than season or two back
that $3.50 was the highest paid for a
single pelt of this kind. Now a choice
raw mink fur will bring 81, and mar
ten pelt from SIS to $40, where Sc or 81
was paid last winter. An otter skin is
worth $22 just as it comes from the
trapper's hands, which is away above
any price paid for more than thirty
years Quite a 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

THE NATIONS FORESTS.
BRILLIANT ADDRESS AT ANNUAL
CONVENTION AMERICAN FOR.
ESTRY ASSOCIATION.

Secretary Wilson Sounds Warning
Note on Forest Destruction-Ffilllo
Acres Should Be Tree-pIanted-
Everett Hale in Vigorous Iecl.
Secretary Wilson has more than
once manifested deep interest in the
question of American Forestry. Mr..
Wilson has, in fact for some years been
elected and reelected President of the
American Forestry Association, pow
erful organization, composed of public
pirited men throughout the country,
which has probably done more than
any other one influence to awaken
national interest in the enormous
destruction of the forests and the neces-
sity for their business-like management
and preservation, even to the reforest-
alton of denuded areas and the plant.
ing of trees upon barren prairie lands.
That the movement in the United
States is coming to be considered an
important one is to some extent evil
denced by the increased recognition of
the subject by Congress, which is also
due largely to Secretary Wilson's en-
thusiasm. When Mr.. Wilson was APP
pointed Secretary of Agriculture by
President Mckinley, his forestry d.
vision consisted of one forester, an
assistant forester and five clerks and
with an annual appropriation from

Indians, or such of them at least as
have any business ability. A good
many of the Indians trap during the
winter, but the trouble with the major.
ity of them Is that they do not know
the value of their catch and are likely
to sell $22 otter pelt for 81 or SIS, and
$l1 mink peJt for dollar, or perhaps
pint of whiskey. The white man Is
well aware of this fact, and some a.
gents make it their business during the
winter to do nothing but buy furs of
the Indians, selling them later at a
handsome margin of profit.
These agents usually travel from re-
servadon to reservation by dog team
or snow shoes.
Even the little weasel, scores of
which daily leave their tiny tracks
in the snow on the outskirts of the
towns are worth 81 each for their pelts.
They were valueless three years ago,
and two years ago we're worth 10 cents
each. For time last winter the peIts
brought 80 cents each. The weasel
also belongs to the homologue of the
American sable together with the mar.
ten, mink, fisher and otter. The Ameri-
can sable really is the marten, accord.
ing to some authorities. It is common.
ly called the pine marten, and at first
glance the only distinguishing feature
between 1t and the mink is spot of
beautiful orange color on its throat,
just under the chin.
A grizzly bear skin is worth $40, If
in the best condition, but Of course

Common Sense Forestry.
What are we going to do?" asked
DR.. Hale In his deep voice. 1--WE must
use both common sense and sentiment
in deahng with the forest question.
1t Is a very great queation. The in
dividuals interested in American for
estry, even though they be millionaires
or multi-mlllionaires, can not accom-
plish anything definite and lasting I'M
less the states and the general govern
ment can be awakened to the necessity
or giving the cause large and substan-
tial assistance which 1t merits. Com
mon sense, in forestry, means that the
forestry question should be put upon
business basis. In order to make n
large, immediate profit forests are de-
stroyed; they should be cut with some
reference to the future; in other words
they should be cropped. All the gov
ernments OF Europe rely largely upon
their forest lands for revenue. A sim
liar condition should and could be
brought about In this country"

Evolution of Woman.

When Eve brought woe to all mankind
Old Adam called her woman.
But when she wo0-ed with love 20 kind.
He then pronounced her woman.
But now with folly and with pride,
Their husbands pockets trimming
The ladies' are so full OF whinrs
The people call them whim-men.
