Will TELL ABOUT
CLASSIC HEROINES
Ellen Terry Appears but Once
in This City at Matinee in
Columbia Theater

1t is now many years since San Fran
cisco has seen Ellen Terry. The art of
one of the fnest Shakespearean players
that the theater, has ever held has been
a memory merely to local theatergoers
who were fortunate in other days to
attend the productions of the classics
in which this great artist participated.
She returns to this city for one per
formance NEXT Thursday afternoon.
That single afternoon will afford for
the last time, probably. the opportunity
TO enjoy the wonderful art of Ellen
Terry.
From indications it appears that the
Columbia theater. where the event will
be held, will not be large enough by
half to accommodate ali those who will
want to attend. the matinee perform
ance.
Among her presentations on what
promises to be most memorable
occasion will be a scene from "The
Merchant of Venice wherein Portia
makes her plea to Shylock. in that
speech which. as she read it when play
ing with Henry Irving left an impress
sion never to be forgotten-"The quail
ity of mercy is not strained
The actress will discourse on the sub
iect "iShakespeare's Heroines Triumph
ant" and in connection with her ad-
dress will be heard in various scenes in
which Shakes speare's. heroines, Viola,
.Rosalind, Beatrice, Virgilia, Portia and
others appear.
Thus far her tour of the United States
has been in the nature of triumphal
Journey, and honors have been heaped
upon her wherever she has been heard.

would be safe from forest fires Of
neighboring. lumber. camps.
Eight years ago the first park com
mission succeeded in having withheld
from public entry all public lands
within the borders of the Big Basin,
pending a proposed act of congress.
which would donate them to the state.
to be added to the present acreage of
the California redwood park. Later
the commission was changed, and the
new commission falling to take ad-
vantage of these conditions, the matter
was held in allegiance. Now the sec
retary of the interior is asking why
these lands should be held longer from
public entry.
The Sempervirens club has been asked
by Father Kenna of Santa Clara col
lege and others to take immediate steps
toward acquiring the additional terri
tory. Congressman Hayes has taken
the matter up and is in correspondence
with Secretary Ballinger. who has
given his assurance that he will hold
the land until the California delega-
tion can interview him in regard to
the matter.

cation to secure the passage Of a bill
