WAGON JOURNEY TO
CENTRAL CALIFORNIA
CONTINUATION OF MISS DAVIS
DESCRIPTIVE LETTER-LoNE-
LY MOUNTAIN GRAVE.

Following is a continuation of Ar.
va Davis letter telling of the over
land journey from Enterprise to Gen.
trail California:
September 10 we left Pine Creek
and just after crossing the line and
starting through California Mr.. Da-
Wis had to shed his heavy coat, and
put 1t away. He put his linen one on.
We all thought of what you Wallowa
people told us about California being
so warm, but he soon found the
weather changeable, for it was really
cold. His coat being put away so he
couldn't very easily get to it, he sat
and shivered and was very nearly
frozen the balance of the day. AS
we had our beds fixed on the wagons
the girls crawled into bed and stayed
there all day. We have now left
Goose lake. We made camp ON Davis
creek, finding it very cold, in fact,
colder than it has been since we
left Enterprise.
September 81 we reached Alturas
on the north fork of the Pit river,
and camped over night. The altitude
here being 400 feet we found it
still quite cold.
September % we travelled to Candy
"a miles from Alturas, on Pit river.
Here we found a hot spring which
was near by the road. There were
other hot springs around through the
country. We changed our minds now
about the weather being colder in
California than in Oregon. Driving
on a short distance we stretched
camp on the river. Shortly after
supper, it now being dark, Mr.. Little.
ton and Arva and Vergie Davis, with
the lanterns, started out fishing,
thinking that the light might help us
out some about catching them, and we
failed. They are now convinced that
dry land suckers are all that would
bite.
September 20 we started on and
soon reached small mountain. At
the summit we found a lone grave.
about 20 miles away from any one.
The tombstone was marked, ALBERT
Sghiefien, died in the year 1882
We drove on to the hot mineral
lake, where we camped over night,
with hot and cold water, which was
piped from the hot and cold springs.
We all thought we'll to get rid Of the
Wallowa dirt on us, so as to give
room for some of the California soil,
but we believe that the Wallowa
soil Is the richest for it makes a
larger showing. We all certainly
enjoyed the baths, also camping there
for we had fine camp ground.
Near the place mentioned above were
some fine alfalfa ranches, but good
deal of sand.

Bradley rheater

Among the notable attractions that
 are tu appear at the Bradley this seq
 snn, tue announcement ot Henry R.
 Harfis' production of Charles klein's
 masterpiece, "arhe Third Degree, will
 in all probability cause more comment
 than anything theatrical for the past
 few years. U since Mr. klein's famous
 drama, "fne Lion and the Mouse"
 first made its appearance here; and Il
 k a lategone conclusion that anything
 that Mf Klein writes Is bound te
 arouse interest and eNen II he had not
 written any play other than this his
 latest work, IL would stamp him aS
 dfamatist of extraordinary merit.
 While The Lion and the Mouse
 dealt with those high in politics and
 the millionaire class, The Third De
 gree In the same aggressive manner al.
 lacks the reprehensihle methods of the
 police in eNtorting confessions from
 those accused of crime. It is Mr
 K lein $ purpose to dfamatike subjects
 of timely interest and in The Third De-
 gree he strikes sledge hammer blows
 at this pernicious police method. The Third Degree is, however, not without its romance, for tnterwoven through. out and upon which the piece hinges, runs delicate love story, showing the struggles of young woman, lately married to man far above her in so- cial standing, against overwhelming odds, to yindieate her loved one, who by her natural judgment in discerning the true from the false and unswerv Ing devotion, wins her iife's task,
 which, in the eyes of all, looked hope less. If forccfal demonstration of the power of a woman's love is of interest to plsy-goers, then The Third Degree l iS f9gad io touch A responsive chord.
 It is n typical Henry B. Harris pro. daction, he having used the same eN- I cellent Judgment as characterized tse production of his former Klein crea- | tion, The I.ion and the Mouse, which
 obtained throughout the long run of | The Third Degree at the Hudson 1 Theatre, New York. Nov. ath is the | date set for the appearance here of this remarkable drama at the Bradley and with it's admirable cast, including Marion kerhy, Lawrence Eddiser, Irene Oshier, A. w. Ellis, Geo, sum- ner and others of equal prominence a record crowd will in all likelihood greet Il.
