SOBS AND SMILES AT
 ORPHEUM TONIGHT

A large audience turned out last night to witness the orpheum offer ering. While all of the productions were first class there seemed to be preponderance of tears. The Pickle Soldier" is not comedy as the title suggests but a tragedy with a bit of the Ibsen touch. His Fath- er's Bugle" is another tragedy dis tinctly American. "A Woman Way" was still another tragedy of the mel odrama type, but largely overdrawn. "Margerie's Awakening" would be guessed to be a Bertha M. Clay sort of tragedy, on the contrary, it turned out to be a delicious comedy and relieves the evening of sobs. The same performance is on tonight

FADS AT THE
WHITE HOUSE

President Wilson has announced
there will be no New Years rsoep-
ton at the White House this sea-
son.
This is an example Of true dem
ooraoy. A. the Witohita Eagle
we'll says:
mot since Jefferson rode on
horseback and unattended to take
the oath of Office, perhaps, has
there been a man elected to the
highest Office in the nation who
could, or cared to attempt to main
tain the dignity of his office and
still live 30 simply and 80 in har-
mony with the ideals of a nation
which advertises to be no respecter
of persons or to have no titled aris-
tocracy. -
THE nation will be far better
when the immensely costly enter
tainments of the idle rich are made
unpopular and cease to be thought
necessary, if any such thing can
ever be brought about. The nat
ional dignity can be as well main
tanned, we firmly believe, without
vast amount of the parade and
pomp and red tape which has
usually been considered highly
essential. If Mr.. Wilson can dem
onstrate this convincingly, as he
seems to intend doing, he will have
done the nation a great service"

PORT WELLS MILL
 SAFELY F|::| LANDED
Sampson UnIoaded 75 Tons of Ma chinery and Supplies at Hobo
 Bay for Willard.

Senator B. F. Willard returned yes terday afternoon from Port Wells on the B. F. M. and reports that the launch encountered the worst storm which he has ever witnessed in the north. While coming over on Sun day they were compelled to seek safety at Kniklik and had difficulty in securing anchorage as both anch- ors were dragged by the launch when buffeted by the wind.
 Senator Willard had gone to Port Wells to witness the unloading of the machinery and supplies from the Sampson at Hobo Bay for the Gran ite Gold Mining company, operating the Tatum property. The Sampson found no difficulty in getting into Ho- bo Bay and fortunately the weather was fine when she arrived, permit ting the machinery and supplies to be transferred from the steamer to the barge and from the latter to the shore in safety. The day the steamer arrived was the only one during which the bay had been smooth for some time. The shipment consisted of seventy-five tons.
 The buildings which are now be- ing erected at the mine are well un- der way and the quarters for the men only awaited the roofing and lum- Der, which was on the Sampson, to make them habitable. Fourteen men are employed on the buildings in ad- dition to those who have the contract for the tunnel work The senator ex- pressed himself as highly gratified with the manner m which the prop erty continues to develop.

LAUNCH GOES TO
 KNIGHTS ISLAND
Copper Ore From Mummy Bay to the Tacoma Shelter.

H. J. Harvey, with the launch Minn, left this morning with four men for Mummy Bay, Knights Island, where he has some promising cop per properties. He will take out one hundred tons of o1e for shipment to the Tacoma smelter and if the re- turns are such as to warrant he will continue regular shipments. .: There is no queution regarding the richness of the ore, as he plans to ship nothing less than twenty per cent copper It is question of be- ling able to handle shipments under present working conditions as the property is not equipped for exten- ] sive operations.
 Considerable work has been done ! on the property, fully $15,000 having been expended on annual assessment and other development work. A strong lead, carrying high grade ore, has been uncovered but the owner realizes that it is far from being a mine as yet. He has, however, un. bounded faith in his property and hopes to demonstrate that shipments can be made under the present crude arranements which will enable him to continue development by making the ground pay for the work.
 Jim Black, Domanic and two other miners were in the party and expect to be one for some time, as they are outfitted for several months.

BRIGHTON WAS HEAVILY LOADED Had Capacity Load of Freight and Eight Passengers for Port
 Wells This Morning.

The Brighton left for Port Wells this morning with capacity load of freight and ten passengers. Her decks were piled high with lumber con- signed to Long Bay, where Wiltsey and associates are opening up L property discovered during the past summer by Chris Peterson and Frank White. MT. Taubernek will have charge of the development work and will employ two men until the camp has been established when the force will be increased. The prospect is said to be very promising. It is To- cated near tidewater and possesses other advantages which will provide for cheap reductions of the ores if the prospect developes into the big mine which the owners believe it is sure to do.
 The lumber, which will be landed at Long Bay is for the Crandell prop erty, which has been under develop ment for some time and is develop ing into big proposition. The own CTS will erect comfortable winter quarters and will continue develop ment work nearly all winter.
 The Brighton is an exceptionally good boat for the Sound service. She is equipped with & Grey motor Of ample power to enable her to make headway in any ordinary storm and is rigged with sail for emergency purposes. Capt. stamy is familiar with every portion of the Sound and will take no chances of losing his
 boat and causing discomft to his passengers. During the summer sea son, when storms are exceptional
 the Sound may be navigated with
 safety in small craft, but at this sea
 son of the year, when the weather is uncertain, the careful ones appreciate
 the advantage of being able to trav
 ell on g boat like the Brighton.
