MORE MONEY
FOR FIGHTING
FOREST FIRES

With an increase of fire wardens,
an organization perfected and the peo
pie generally educated upon the sub
ject Of forest fire laws, the sentiment
was expressed yesterday at the meet
ing of the State Forest Board, that
the forestry department was In most
excellent condition to take up Its
work of preventing and combating
forest fires this season.
Last year the department had 90
Wardens, but this year, through the
aid of the Weeks bill 1t will have 1OO
In addition an organization has been
effected which is of statewide scope,
and the people generally taught how
to combat and prevent fires.
With all these preliminaries dis
posed of the department this season
will turn its attention to a strict en-
forcement Of the laws, and the wag-
ing Of a campaign to prevent fires,
and combating them intelllgently
when they occur The department Will
prosecute to the full extent OF the
law any violators, according to the
policy yesterday adopted.
The opinion was expressed during
the meeting that the forestry laws
were not altogether satisfactory, be-
ing loosely drawn and that this sub
ject shuld be called to the attention
of the legislature. The opinion was
also expressed that the department
needs larger appropriation, and this
is another subject which will likely be
brought to the attention Of the sOlons
when they convene. The department
now receives an appropriation of $780,
900 year, but, according to the SEN
timent expressed, to effectively trans
act its work an appropriation of s5O,-
900 annually Is necessary.

"REBECCA"
ARRIVES
in SALEM
THE BIG KLAW AND ERLANGER
PRODUCTION AND COMPANY AR
RIVEs In TOWN-THE LARGEST
DRAMATIC OFFERING ON TOUR.

"Rebecca Of sunnybrook Farm
Klaw and Erlanger's pre-eminent
production headed by Ursula st.
George, has arrived, and everything
IS in readiness for the performance
tonight. Klaw and Erlanger, two
master-hands Of the theatrical
world are giving us In this attrac-
tion the best that possibly can be
given to a theater-loying public
"Rebecca" ran for one solid year
at David Belascos theater, New
York; nine months at the fremont
in Boston; and seven months at the
Illinois Theater in Chicago; and this
IS It's drst road tour, and within
short time, It will have extended en-
gagements in Europe and Australia,
the same as II is now having In our
own United States.
There is possibly only one attrac-
tIon on the American stage today
which equals II, and that Is Klaw and
Erlangers new and greater ben
Hur." From the first TO the last
scene the stage settings and environ
ments are rich, colorful and artis-
tic, The light effects subtle and Inn
pressye and beautiful The same
sort OF substantial men, women, and
children who find delight in, and pa
tronize Ben Hur" like "RebeCca"
Such plays as "Rebecca" are like
rare jewels, difficult TO get into ones
possession, and then not always
recognizable TO even the most In tel
ligent mind until they have been ex-
amined under strong light which in
cases Of plays Is to be found in pub
lie presentations. The public Is a
merclless critic It's palate is dell
cate, and must be tlckled with the
sort OF dramatic dish that will not
clog nor leave an unpleasant taste
behind.
"Rebecca" is the strongest ro-
nance based on human theme,
which has ever been produced on the
American stage, II is safe TO say
that there is not a person who has
read the book OF "Rebecca Of Sun
nybrook Farm,' and the new chronl-
Gle Of "Rebecca" who will not be
glad Of the opportunity to zee this
stage version, and they will un-
doubtedly be at the theater tonight

day, the lowest estimates placing the
attendance at $4,000. At Cincinnati In

opened, Their were rs, 900. and the same
number saw the Pirates open at st.
Louis. Boston, with the Phillies as an
attraction, vas a poor fourth in the
National League, with an attendance
of 10, 900. All of the figures are con-
sentative. In lar estimates the num-
bers are much larger, but a fair rating
places the total attendance at the Ma
tional League games at 95. 900.
In the American with the Browns at
