VAST WEALTH UNCOVERED ON
VARIOUS PROPERTIES
GREATEST NEEDS OF CAMP
DIR. Smith Declares that Things Are
Looking Better than at Any
Other Time.

Every man who visits the Gallce
district comes back with the story
of the wealth that is being uncover
ed among the eternal hills Of that
section. Capital, which Is always
timid, has at last declared its con-
fidence in the camp and Is being in
vested in large blocks in the various
properties.
The business men Of Grants Pass
have through the Commercial Club
expressed their confidence in the
prospects of the district and have
done all that they could to make
known to the world the real values
In gold and copper to be found there.
What is needed Is more capital to
harness power, build railroad to
some near, point on the Southern
Pacific and open good wagon roads
to several mines which are now not
easy of access. The bridge that has
long been talked OF Is still dream
In the minds Of those who should
have built 1t. We still hear that It
is to be built this year and 1t is not
impossible that this Is true, but our
limited vision impels us to say that
the Gallce district Is likely to be call
ed on to wait for bridge until after
the next election. Empty promises
are no longer In order.
Josephine county has reached a
point in It's history that demands the
opening up of its vast resources with
out delay and the way to do this is
for the county government to get
hustle on itself and build good roads.
not highways filled in with dirt In
the summer to be made mud holes
during the winter. Such roads are
a disgrace to the county and we have
altogether too many of them.
The Mail Tribune OF few days
ago gave this item In regard to
things at Gallce:
"Dr. G. H. Smith, OF Galice, was in
Medford Sunday night. The grow
Ing wave has extended from Medford
even to Galice, he says, and matters
are looking brighter In that camp
than ever before.
"The Almeda people are doing a
great deal of work--over 200 feet
during the past year. The new
smelter is all raedy to "blow In" as
soon as It is possible to get the coke.
The coke bins at Merlin are finish
ed and II Is just a question OF the
roads drying sufficiently TO permit
heavy hauling for the smelter to be
put In operation. AS soon as this is
done another furnace will be built.
"The Oriole has demonstrated the
fact that Southern Oregon mines do
go down. This mine is now down
several hundred feet and the ore
body is bigger and better than 1t
was on the surface.
"There are several other good
things In the district" said Mr..
Smith, "but these two are the big
gest concerns. The smaller ones are
doing as well In proportion"

cents a concert.

filed a long felt want in supplying TO
the people nneritorious music at a price

In the Ellery band, which has been at
Idora for the last five weeks. the music

undisputable merit. For tonal beauty,

" been approached on the Pacific coast.
Equally good are it's interpretations of
grand opera, symphony and popular
trifles.

Rig COMEDY SUCCESS
BROUGHT BY MILLER
Actor Manager Presents Him
self in "Her Husbands Wife"

Henry Miller begins a two weeks
engagement at the Columbia theater
tomorrow night in his brilliant comedy
success. Her Husbands Wife" This
will be the actor managers first ap-
pearance here in pure comedy role
for many years. His last enga cement
in San Francisco was in The Great
Divide" in which his great talents for
serious acting were strikingly mani
tested. In his latest success Miller
again portrays a westerner, but his
John Belden in Her Husbands Wife,
unlike his Stephen Client in THE
Great Divide" is an entirely modern
westerner a California millionaire,
who is man of the world and a phi
losopher with a keen sense OF hunor.
The play ran all last season in New
York and Chicago alone and has not
vet been offered in the other big cities
Of the east San Francisco will see
it almost direct from its run in
Broadway.
Miller viii be supported here by the
same brilliant cast that helped TO
carry the play TO an unqualified sue
cess in New York and Chicago and
which includes Laura Hope Crews.
Josephine Lovett Walter Hitchcock,
Charles Getthold and Laura Clement.
Her Husbands Wife" is the most
delightful marital misunderstanding
the stage has seen since Moliere's La
Malade Imaginaire" and furnishes a
delicious satire on the eccentricities
of the feminine mind. The wife in the
play has every reason to be happy, but
she manages to persuade herself that
an unkind fate has doomed her to an
early grave Having reached this cons
clusion she determines TO pick out her
own successor. with the mental reser-
walton that the girl of her choice will
not be pretty enough to make her hus-
band forget his first wife.

which. will be under the special pa
tronage of the Papyrus club. One Of
the most charming of her dances, and
one not seen hitherto in this city, is
L Adieu," a valse in F minor by
Chopin. Around this dance Is woven a
love story of Chopin's youth, when he
was engaged to girl still in her teens,
who refused to marry him because OF
parental objection. Among the musi-
clans posthumous works was found
this plaintive little FTempi di Valse,"
dedicated to Mile. lie Marie as 'LAdieu."
This is one of the most graceful dances
of Miss Romer's interpretations, af-
fording her ample opportunity TO con-
vey to her audience the spirit, light
ness and buoyant hopefulness of ex-
treme youth who, while saying tadieu'
to present joys. has still faith in future
happiness
Miss Romer is also most fortunate in
making her debut under the musical
directorship of Bernet Jaulus. who has
played with the Rosenor Hungarian or
chestra, the opening attraction of the
old Orpheurn, with the Carl Beal string
quartet, in various symphony concerts
in Europe and with the late Fritz
ScheeL
