w. F. Mann, the sponsor of over a
score of current dramatic successes,
has just launched his latest and most
successful sensational contribution to-
stage literature, Swallowed by Three. -
1t is not as it's title might suggest, a
conventional detective thriller, but
tremendously powerful Indictment of
civic, political graft and greed. Its
recent production in Chicago was at
tended with threats of suppression by
some of the powers that be on account
of it's frank discussion of certain well
known and scandalous conditions in the
underworld of the windy city. To
quote one of the local journals, "cer-
tain of the disreputable& element who
have been dealt some hard blows by
the lines and situations of "Shadowed
by Three" have brought all their infiu-
ence to bear upon the management to
withdraw the bill, but without effect.
Their walls of anguish have remained
unheeded and the general public quick
to respond to the robust and healthy
preachments of this virile drama have
continued to pack the opera house
nightly. AT Royal hall, Friday even
ing, March 4th. Seats now on sale.
We received a pleasant call from
J. Herbert Snow Monday as he was
concluding his visit with old friends in
this section. Mr.. Snow has series of
interesting photographs of Alaska
scenes where he has been employed
during the summer in charge of the en-
gineering force on the Alaska Central
railway, line building from Seward to
the coal fields some 200 miles in the in
terror. 1t is these coal deposits that
is the subject of the Ballinger-P inchott
investigation now being conducted at
Washington, and Mr.. Snow informs us
are the most valuable coal fields ever
discovered. There are immense beds
of both anthracite and bituminous coal,
some of them 60 feet in thickness, and
all that is necessary is transportation
to tide water to open up the market of
the Pacific coast. Railroad building,
however, Mr.. Snow says, is very diff
ficult engineering proposition, as the
country is mountainous with heavy
grades to overcome and numerous tun-
nels to pierce. The road is finished
about half the distance but has met
with financial difficulties and the con-
struction is now being done under re-
ownership, so what the future has in
store for the prospect he is unable to
state. The result of the investigation
may have an important bearing on it.
