Rev. Fraser Metzger, clerk, stated that
during the last year S6,S43.7s had been
added to the valuation of the plant by the
erection OF an addition to the building,
and the installation OF sterilizing outfit
and elevator. The capitalization still re-
mains $4,000 and the indebtedness is ap.
proximately $500, which the balance oil
S741.50 in the treasury will reduce to
S1052.50.
The amount of insurance has been in
creased to $4,000, and the building and
furnishings are now in excellent condi-
ton. home for the nurses has been
discussed by the board OF directors and
seems TO be real necessity. Several
plans have been suggested bat meme have
been found practicable. It is hoped,
however, that quarters outside the sana-

distant date. The condition OF affairs is

incurred only s36.25. The only fire il
Randolphswas Aug. "a and Sept. of 1907
when an effort to destroy hornets
nests stirred up more than the hornets
/ for ii was very dry season and the fire
worked into five acres OF scrub land on
+ the Lamson brook near the Tatro neigh
borhood and had to be vigorously Tough
by D. 7. Dyer, who had the assistance Of
Forester A. NJ. Wang han and f. L. Bruce.
No great harm was done but s20.60 had
to be expended in stopping the creeping
blaze.
Rochester, however, had a sad expert
ence in October OF 1908, when from four
to FIVE acres. two-thirds timber, were
burned over at loss OF $4,000 and an ex-
pense of S922.5s in fighting the flames.
This fire ragged on Mt. Horrid, through
which runs the boundary line between
Rochester and Goshen, and in the latter
place ii spread over 70 acres. About IS X
OF the marketable timber was spruce, 40
600 feet being burned in one clump Of ten
acres, aud the total loss Of marketable
spruce was towards So, 600 feet. Beech.
birch, maple and pin-cherry would natur-
ally follow the fire, as the area is too
high for poplars.
The fire was discovered at II o'clock in
the morning Oct. IL, and was, in all
probability, caused by the carelessness Of
boys in leaving a campfire before ii was
properly extinguished. Twelve men
reached the scene at O'Clock in the aft
ernoon but the fire VAS so fierce then they
could not combat it, and 200 men from
Rochester and Goshen fought it through
cut Sunday. Monday $50 men were try
ing to beat back the flames and then
trenching at a width of 20 feet was re-
sorted to. The fire burned eight days
and was finally extinguished by rain.
The east and south slopes of the noun
standing, suffered most the west slope
had been numbered.
The burning area bordered the hold
ings Of the international Paper company
and Col. j. Battell. Both employed men
independently of the town or state to
protect their interests, and the Paper
company paid $3.50 day and carried
food and water to hundred men.
In regard to this lumber region, it is
stated that in Goshen, which lies wholly
within the Green mountains, only the old
river bottoms and valleys furnish good
agricultural soil. From 1890 to 1900
about 1900, 600 feet OF spruce were cut
annually, a wide contrast to the 175, 900
feet cut in 1908 after the fire. Previous
TO the advent of the international Paper
company in 1884, numbering was not car
ried on extensively, but was confined to
small operations on the part OF farmers.
At that time spruce far exceeded The
stand of hardwood, which condition is
reversed today. Reproduction is good in
this town, and one man owns % acres OF
pasture that be is allowing to come into
spruce. Already his annual receipts for
he sale OF Christmas trees, at five cents
each, are $40. The trees are four to six
feet high and about eight years old.
Rochester, besides carrying on large
dairy interests, cuts more lumber than
Goshen, and its timberlands are in the
hands OF the International Paper COM
pany, Colonel Battell, few lumbermen
md farmers.

HARTMAN TO PLAY
CONGENIAL ROLE
Comedian at Princess Will Be
Impresario and ''Kidder"
at Playhouse

Success has been abroad at the Prin-
cess theater ever since the opening of
the Ferris Hartman season. Wood
land" crowded the theater during the
first week George Washington Jr."
more than sustained the record, and
this weeks presentat of THE Mayor
of Toxic" promises to be the climax of
the engagement. 1t is a big collection
of humorous situations witty speeches
and bright musical gems.
The story of The Mayor of Toxic
has to do with the plight of stranded
American opera company in Japan.
Tokyo citizens take the members for
nobility and bring them before the
chief magistrate Of the city with all
due honor and ceremony A Russian
spy, a native conspirator, court in
trigues involving the stranded players,
and other elements are tangled into a
comical plot and then unsnarled in true
comic opera fashion, TO the enjoyment
and advantage of everybody concerned.
Hartman will play the role of Mar
Gus Orlando Kidder. impresario of the
company. 1t is part in which he
has appeared before with great sue
cess His songs will admit of some
distinctively Hartmanesque Iocausms.
Myrtle Dingwall whose voice has been
one of the sensations of the company's
appearance in this city, will be enrolled
as Olota San, where her talents should
find free scope. Walter de Leon and
'Muggins" Davies have prominent
roles. Robert Leonard, Joseph Fogarty.
Josie Hart, George Poultney, Angelo
Pinkley. Marta Golden and the other
favorites will be well bestowed in ap-
propriate parts. The pretty chorus will
be in evidence throughout the action of
the musical comedy

WOMAN'S SOUL IS
Barred in DRAMA
Virginia Harmed TO Appear at
Alcazar in TOIstoy's
''Anna Karenina"

Virginia Harmed begins her five
weeks engagement at the Alcazar to-
morrow night with an elaborate pro-
duction of Anna Karenina,' which is
dramatization of Tolstoy's novel Ed
mund Guiraud made the adaptation and
Thomas William Broajhurst translated
it into English and prepared it for the
English stage
1t was four years ago when the play
was first produced in this country, Vir-
ginia Harmed appearing in the title role
at the Herald square theater, New
York. Star and play were highly
praised, and after a successful season
Miss Harmed secured the drama for her
exclusive use, it being peculiarly suit
able to her great gifts as an actress.
in the presentation at the Alcazar she
will be supported by William Courte-
nay, her leading man. and the Alcazar
company.
Tolstoy's fascination as a literary
artist, coupled with Miss HarneIs fame
as an Interpreter of such characters as
his Anna Karenina, makes the Alca-
zar's offering rare dramatic treat
The great Russians novels reproduce
with Photographic eXactness certain of
the tragedies of life. His depletion of
Anna Karenina graphically lays bare
the soul of a wife and mother who is
torture racked between her duty and a
love that she can not repress. Miss
Harneds grasp of the woman's nature
and portrayal of her conflicting emo
tions have been pronounced sublime
acting by the critics of the metropolis.
The play begins when Anna, wife of
Alexis Karenina, meets Vronsky, a cav
airy officer. Vronsky confesses his
love, and when she repels him he rides
recklessly in steeplechase and is
hurt. Her anxiety shows her husband
where her affection has wandered, and
by telling her that Vronsky is dead he
leads her to confess her love. When
she discovers that Karenina has lied to
her she leaves him. and he uses their
little son as a bait to bring her back.
In the third act Anna and Vronsky
have eloped to Venice and are living as
man and wife. Realizing that her rep
utation has suffered, and learning that
Vronsky is eager to rejoin his regi-
ment, she decides to return to Russia
and mako another effort to secure legal
separation from her husband.
Vronskys home, near Moscow, is the
scene of the final act. Anna Is begin
ming to realize that Vronsky is firing
of her, and when she is reliably in
formed that Karenina has finally con-
sented to a divorce she understands
that Vronsky no longer wishes to
marry her. He goes away, in opposi-
tion to her desire, and she throws her
self in front of a railway train just be-
fore he returns to ask her forgiveness.
This is said to be one of the most
thrilling stage effects ever conceived.

LUCKY STAR IS
COMEDY BRILLIANT
William Collier in Bright and
Clever Play Comes to
the Columbia

William Collier appears tomorrow
night at the Columbia theater in "A
Lucky Star" a comedy founded upon
c. n. and A. NJ williamson's story,
'"The Motor Chaperon," dramatized by
Anne Crawford Flexner and touched
up" by the inimitable comedian, William
Collier. His engagement is for two
weeks.
Charles Frohman is the producer of
the play. which enjoyed a successful
run at the Hudson theater, New York,
and, according to his prevailing Gus
tom. Frohman sends to San Francisco
the same cast and production that made
the comedy a success in the big me-
tropolis.
The role created by Collier is de-
scribabIe only by the term Collier
.esque." He is the worried, badgered,
perturbed and imposed upon victim of
circumstances and friends. In this
capacity Of suffering humorously Col
lier is unique among players and repre-
sents q rare type Of actor in being be-
tween the extremes Of the comedian and
the fsrceur.
Much Of the fun of the play depends
upon the surprises that the plot de-
Felops. and so an extended exposition
OF the plot is deemed inadvisable as
tending 10 rob the auditor of much of
the enjoyment that comes of the unex-
pected- The story, however, is set
amidst party Of pleasure tourists mo-
toring along picturesque Dutch canals.
Ronald Lester Starr, a young American
artist, has secured a houseboat for a
sketching tour. AS he is about to start
he learns that the boat belongs to two
handsome American girls. After much
consideration ii is decided that all Of
them shall proceed in the boat rather
than disarrange any of their plans, but
a suitable chaperon must, of course. be
secured by Starr. Failing to find a
chaperon Starr advertises in a Rotter-
dam paper for an "aunt" to act in the
desired capacity. There begin the COM
pllcations, which do not end until after
The journey is done; meanwhile three
and half acts of delightful humor are
promised.

OF all the animals that tread the

sized elephant which arrives this aft

stay. The feats performed by this
diminutive pacherderm are declared to
be beyond the capabilities of any other
elephant in captivity, and the intelli-
gence of the beast is disclosed and
proves nearly human. He is constantly
adding stunts to his repertoire of
tricks and the act which will be pre-
sented with Little Hip as the big star
will be entirely new.
