"The Virginian' maintained it's
claim on lasting favor by opening
to a full house last night. Hart in
the title role is an improvement on
Farnum, looking more the part
drawn in the novel, and his acting
fits the requirement. There Is
nothing to compare Campeau as
Trampas with except himself, and
he is as good as ever. Miss Anne
Meredith plays the part of Molly
Wood and the cast is strong in
minor roles. Admirers of the cow
boy style of play get it in this pro
duction. The engagement here
lasts tonight and tomorrow evening
Paul Gilmore has what he calls
"a southwestern automobile romance
in "The Wheel of Love-" in which
he appears at the Spokane Friday,
Saturday and Sunday nights, with
Saturday matinee. 1t is a style OF
comedy in which Gilmore is parti-
cularly strong.

The new vaudeville bill opening
yesterday has a local feature in the
first performance of I'm Camp" by
the Walton Brothers Of this city.
They were given hearty recep-
ton last night, merited by the style
in which they present their sketch,
designed to display their musical
ability to the best advantage. Porter
j. Whites act, THE Visitor" is
something that has to be seen in
order to get the benefit of the chills
and thrills that 60 with it. 1t is
entirely out of the line of ordinary
vaudeville. The rest OF the bill
consists of comedy, acrobatic and
juggling novelties, with singing
specialties that make up a we'll bal
anced program.

US. BUILDS WORLD DEFYINC FORTRESS IN FAR EAST

Olongapo to Cavite; but his plans
look suspiciously complete, espe-
cially since Lieut.. Col. Frederick D.
Abbott, assistant to the chief en-
gineers in the army, has asked for
an appropriation OF $3.6O0,000 with
which to build an artificial island
at the entrance OF Manila bay.
1t would cost 5000 900 to fortify
Subig bay, at Olongapo, and require
an army of $4,000 men, and after
this huge sum was spent and this
huge army assembled, Manila, the
gem Of the Philippines, would still
be exposed.
There is little opposition to the
proposed change of base, especially
since Secretary Taft recommended
Cavite over OlongapO, and suggest
ed that the big dry dock Dewey be
transferred Immediately.
II the new plan Is carried out,
Manila bay will be one of the most
magniflcently defended harbors in
the world.
The bay is nearly circular in
form, and is about 80 miles across
The entrance is now partially
blocked by Corregidor island, leav-
ing the northern channel so narrow
that any ship attempting to pass
would be exposed to quick destruc-
ton from the big guns on the ISL
and. The southern channel is wider,
though it is partially guarded by
Caraboa island lying near the
mainland. 1t Is proposed to con-
struct the new artificial island be-
tween Corregidor and Cardiac, to
man the three with huge fortifica.

Uncle Sam a Gibraltar-like fortress,

"Drusa Wayne" the Columbia
Stock Co. bill for the week begin
ming last evening. is the story of a
girl more sinned against than sim
ming. The plot of the play is
handled in a delicate manner and
the staging is good. In the name
role Miss Marie Van Tassel has a
part difficult to handle, but she &C
quits herself with credit and de-
served the applause she received.
Others in the cast deserving Of
mention were Willis Hall, as Clar-
ence Colgate, and Miss Pauline

nished the comedy element.

AUDITORIUM.

The only serious features of
"Charley's Aunt" played by the
Shirley Co. this week, are the
matrimonial prospects finally un-
tangled from the plot, and they are
not the sort that bring tears. The
fun is created by the efforts of two
students to masquerade compan-
ion as a chaperone for their sweet
hearts, and the arrival of the gen.
uine article Unexpectedly. Frank
McQuarrie has the difficult part of
the bogus chaperone, with Miss
Shirley and Miss Won Waldron in
the girl parts. George McQuarrie
and Robert Siddell have the stu
dent roles, and the combination Is
a genuine fun producer.
