When he wrote The Shepherd Of

to current literature an idyll dealing
with the simple lives and sombr0
tragedies of the simple mountain folk.
Critics have said that the stage ver-
sion might be improved by chopping
out the lines in several places, and
others critics have other things to
say about the dramatized story. But
with a big B-though Richmond au-
diences saw Wrights little classic
first at the Academy, and then for q
whole week at the Bijou last year.
still another Richmond audience
packed the Bijou last night to witness
the first night of the opening per-
Torrance presented by clever and
capable company OF people.
Nearly everybody knows the sim
pie story OF heart interest of the
Kentucky hills. and it were a waste
OF space to repeat it here. Suffice
1t to say that the company Is one
OF the best balanced the Bijou has
placed IN some time. AS Dad. Harry
Nelson makes good with the leading
role. and the Interpretation or the

very effective. Appealing, most

vein of comedy Is handled BY Fay
Brown in a manner that shows him
to be character actor of considera-

character work. and the Pete Of

bit of work.
The story, OF course, affords elabor~

vantage CT the opportunity. This

At the Colonial.

The bin for the first half the week
which opened at the Colonial yester-
day is up to the usual standard for
that theater. The Ave acts supply all
that could be desired in the way OF
novelty and comedy. Woods Animal
Actors are the feature of the bill for
the first half the week, and 1t Is .
worthy one. The animals are dogs,

most remarkable. In the first scenes
of the act the stage Is set to represent
a street, and the little dogs go shop

with all the carelessness of a person.
During this scene their trainer does
not appear upon the stage, which
makes the act all the more remarkA-
bic and interesting.

James Lick Made Good His 6east
When scornsd a. q suitor.
The story Of "Lick's Folly. or the
Mahogany Mill" has to do with the
romance Of the life of James Lick, the
donor Of the Lick observatory.
In early lffe young Lick felf In love
with the daughter of a well to do
miller for whom be worked. When he
made known his love, which was re-
ciprocated by the girl, the miller was
angry and is said to have replied:
"Out, you beggar! Dare you think
OF my daughter, who will inherit my
riches? Have you a mill like this?
Have you a single penny in your
purse?"
To this Lick replied that he had
nothing as yet, but one day he would
have a mill beside which this one
would ben pigsty. ""
In 1864 the quiet, parsimoniOus
James Lick surprised everybody by
building a magnificent -four mill near
San Jose. The mill was finished with
In in solid mahogany, highly polished.
and was furnished with the best ma
chinery possible. He made the grounds
about the mill very attractive and be-
gan early to set u trees both for
fruit and ornament. I
Lick caused his elegant mill to be
photographed without and within and
sent the pictures to the miller who had
scOrned him In his youth. b
Nineteen years after Mr.. Lick built
his mill, Jan. 16, 1873, he surprised the
people Of San Jose again by giving it
to the Paine Memorial society of Bos-
ton. half the proceeds OF sale to be
used for a memorial hall and half to
sustain a lecture course. Exchange.
