COLONIST RATES BECOME
EFFECTIVE SEPTEMBER ]
Special Fare From East Expect
ed to Attract Thousands
of Tourists

The Southern Pacific company has in
formed the Sacramento Valley develop
ment association that September 1 the
regular colonist rates from eastern
points will go into effect and will con-
tinue until October 81.
These special rates, which are much
lower than the regular fares from east
ern points to California, are placed in
effect twice during the year, in the fall
and spring. These are one way rates to
California and run from $50 from Coun-
Gil Bluffs, Kansas City and Houston,
Tex, to $39.70 from Milwaukee.
These rates have heen a great factor
in bringing large numbers of settlers
to this state, as a great majority OF
the people who contemplate locating
here take advantage of these cheap
rates.
The Sacramento Valley development
association is sending out large num-
bers of letters throughout the United
States, notifying people who have made
inquiry regarding the Sacramento val
ley of the dates when these rates will
be in effect. Every one of these let
ters is accompanied by some literature
descriptive of the valley.

The opening play will be The Music

according TO Belasco. that Warfeld's s
brief itinerary was not extensive nor
long enough. Hence the present plans.

ground of the French revolution and it's
poWerful figure of Sydney Carton. 1t
is the most dramatic of all Dickens
stories and, in the strict sense of
strongly constructed novel, his MASTER
piece. In the dramatization of this tale,
The Only Way" the footliEht adapter
was wise enough to refrain from the
futile attempt of trying to reproduce
all the varied incidents of the original
romance in his stage version. He kept
MS mind upon the truly central theme
OF carton himself, whose sharply con-
trasted traits Of character and whose
sublime self-sacrifice at the close of the
stormy and tragic recital constitute the
chief strength of the book SO skill
fully was this object accomplished that
1t amorded the actor a notable oppor-
tunlty Tor mastery character crea-
this opportunity. AS the drunken and
dlssolute but love ennobled and re-
deemed hero, he Immediately achieved
the portrayal that was hailed from one
end OF the country to the other as the
best and strongest in his career
Throughout the seasons since his big
popular hit in this play Miller has BEEN
constantly requested to revive it. and
has himself always looked forward
with pleasure to the time when he
could appear once more in this favorite
character His many new productions
and prominence as manager have
hitherto prevented the fulfillment OF
this desire, but with the planning of
his present two months engagement
in this city he determined to give his
San Francisco friends the rare treat
of enjoying once more this delightful
creation. At first one sees the reck-
less, drink loving lawyer, waking from
an orgy to undertake a criminal de-
fense that re-establishes his reputation
for brilliancy in the courts. Then
comes his love for Lucy as hopeless
as Minis unrequited love for him
self. When Lucy's accepted suitor
rashly crosses the English channel and
falls into the hands of the blood
thirsty patriots" of Paris Carton
rises to the OCCASION, in spite of his
unhappiness, and at last frees the con-
demned man from his cell and restores
him to England and Lucy. But 1t is at
the expense of Cartons own life His
eloquent defiance of the entire revolu-
tionary assembly is strikingly bold and
picturesque, but fails. All that fsr4eft
him is TO change places with the pris-
oner. This he does in a most dramatic
manner, and then goes to the guillotine
In a spirit of extreme Self-Sacrifce and
heroism- Miller has always given a
deeply impressive enactment of this
tragic climax, and in the present re-
yiyal OF The Only Way" he is to be
supported by specially selected COM
pany Of artists, who win be, it is be-
lieyed, as ideal in their Interpretation
of this piece as Miller's other companies
have been. There will be matinees
