This brilliant young actor combines
many fine histrionic and physical quail
titles. Handsome, polished and withal
a splendid gentleman, he is possessed
of high talents which he used judfc-
iously. He has already demonstrated
thoroughly his versatility and that he
is not one part actor. In romance, in
drawing room comedy, in college play
and in classics, he has always given
the most correct and faithful portray
ais. Mr.. Gilmore's following increases
season by season. indicating that those
who once see him see him again and
again ana influence friends to witness
his work This fact by itself speaks
volumes for the actor who is not only
able to retain his old admirers, but
who acquire new ones every season.
dramatic editor Of long years ex-
perience in speaking of Paul Gilmore

that Mr.. Gilmore was destined to be a
great metropolitan favOrite. Once he
gains a real foothold, said this editor,
he will constantly increase his public

lar in the large cities as in the smaller.

There have not been many musical
shows at the Grand this season that
have afforded a better entertainment
of the sort than did THE Royal Cher
last night. It's one of those shows with
the locale set in a far off cline and
the settings for the three acts were
most attractive. Like all other musi-
cal shows there was little or no plot
or story. But there are plenty of songs
and choruses. Many of the songs were
unusually good and the work of the
chorus was far above the average. 1t
was good sized chorus, too, and one
that was prettily costumed. There was
any quantity of good fun in the piece
and in the hands of William ]. Nc
Carthy, Oscar Ragland, Charles E.
Huntington, Dorothy Rae, Clara Ber-
ger. and. Dixie Lilliard this fun was
we'll presented. As stated, THE Royal
Cher will compare with many of the
best musical shows that have been here
this season and there have been lots of
them.

Bigelow. He ran long parallel evapo-
ration pans from the sea inland for
100 feet and found the evaporation
was faster nearer the sea than it was
at the other end. The phenomena OF
evaporation is subtle, and it's laws are
little understood, all Of which makes
the proposed experiments at Salton sea
most desirable, as the opportunities
offered are unusually inviting.
Concerning the change of climate
Professor BigeloW says the people
speak very thoughtlessly or without
stopping to inform themselves of east
~ acquired facts. Though Salton sea
is quite large body of water, contain
ing about 40 square miles, the total
Of its liquid contents is small com
pared to the annual precipitation over
the area which many people contend is
affected by the sea, a mere drop in the
bucket as it were, compared to the
amount of water that falls annually
between Phenix and the California
desert.
Speaking of the proposed expert
ments at Salton, Professor Bigelow
said he did not care to go into great
details yet, but in a general way he
outlined the plant The permanent
camp will be established where the
railroad crosses an arm of the sea. A
long pier will be built out into the sea
for the reason that the experiments
are to be continued for five or six
years, and as the sea is drying up at
the rate Of six feet a year the obser-
walton towers must be placed in what
is now deep water. One tower will be
placed where the water is twenty-five
feet deep, another at the depth Of forty
feet and another at the depth Of fifty
five feet. AS they will be perhaps
forty feet above the water line, with
evaporation bases placed every ten
feet, the taller one will necessarily. be
hundred feet above the bottom of
the sea and all will have to be built
heavily and set FIRMLY to defy the
wind and waves, both Of which are
sometimes very strong. Observations
will be taken every four hours both
day and night This plant and the ex
periments to be made with it will be
quite an expense, but the weather bu
reau service believes 1t will be well
worth the money.

who was holding the horse, entered.
climbed into the wagon and started to
drive off. The man who was holding
the horse shouted to the one in the
store and he came out and attempted
to climb into the wagon and take
charge of the outfit.
The woman seized the whip and be-
labored him as hard as she could, US
ing first the lash and then the other

Hill, which they sold last week to the
man from whom the team was taken.
They had given possession Of the
store before receiving payment for it
and as the team was part of the prop

evidently believed that under the cir
cumstances she had alright to it. 1t
