A M USE M E rs

The slogan of the AL. G. Field Min
strels for this season, "Twenty-ninth |
Successful Year." emphasizes for the
public that this is the one organization
of its kind which can point to it's his
tory as guarantee of quality. 1t has
met each year with an advancement IN
merit and suitability to the hour.
Through the help of new stage con-
triVances just invented new accom-
plishments in scenic art, the discovery
and development of talented perform
ers and an unstinted outlay of money,
the production which Manager AL G.
Field is offering this season surpasses
all preceding ones.
Minstrelsy of the standard made pre-
eminent by AL. G. Field is given ele-
CANT and captivating settings and at
mosphere by the first number, The
Birth of Minstrelsy.' This repro
duces in miniature the first American
minstrel entertainment, and then the
changes since that time, and concludes
with the colonial spectacle which
eXemplifies The Old and The New
South. Lavishness in mounting is car
ried into the next number, "Minna Ha
Ha," which is an Indian travesty, ex-
tracing continuous fun out of moving
picture methods. The scene pictures
gulch in the Grand Canyon with
waterfalls, lake and river, all respien
dent with moonlight.
The laughter in which the audience
is indulging then is swept to eli
max by the comicalities of Bert Swor
in his new hotel porter" stunt. Fol
lowing this the spectator is shown one
of the triumphs of present day picto
rial art-"The Land of the Midnight
Sum-" a view of the Arctic North, with
its seemingly endless sweep of ice
snow and sea, all gorgeous with color
/ from reflections of sun, moon and
stars. The vision unfolds into the
transformation scene, picturing the
myriad colored and formed sheen Of
the aurora borealis. This entire spec
tacle is only possible through an cleo
trical invention by Herr Kleigl, and
controlled by AL. G. Field. Minstrel
absurdities are portrayed against this
background and they introduce Doc
Cook, the North Pole, a Polar Beai
cleverly acted by Henry Neiser, the
Esquimaux, the Seals, ice foes, bot
tomless well, and like opportunities
for fun.

LESS DAMAGE IS DONE
BY MORE FOREST FIRES
Improved Lookout System and Bet
ter Fighting Facilities Keep
Loss Down.
Report of Forester Graves Shows He
Is Well Satisfied With Show
ing in 1913.

While there We're 4,J2o or twice as
many fires in the national forests in 191:
as there We're in 1912 they did much less
damage. Nineteen hundred and twelve
was the low record year for fires, but
with the improved lookout system. the
better fire-fghting facilities and quicker
notice of when and where a fire hao
started, the damage was kept very low
and Forester Graves. in reporting on the
subject says he is well satisfied with
the showing
More than half the fires of the year
were detected and extinguished before
they had burned over more than quar-
ter of an acre Twenty-Five per cent of
| the fires We're put out before they had
burned over ten acres. OF the many
small fires, ;i.27S were kept inside of the
le0-acrc area. In only twenty-five fires
did the damage average $1,000. There was
an aggregate OF fifty nine million boare
feet of timber destroyed. This was
worth about $4,000. The total damage,
it is estimated. was a little less than
100000. About IS per cent of this loss
was on private lands within the bounda-
ries Of the national forests.
Fewer Fires Started by Engines.
One hopeful sign. according to Mr..
Graves, is that there is a decrease in
the number of fires started by locomo-
tives and sawmill engines. This shows
an increasing amount of care and is
directly due in large measure to the in
creasng use of spark arresters, popu-
larly known as dirt burners
One cause Of the large increase in the
number of forest fires was the IN
precedented series of electric storms that
swept California at the end of a hot,
dry summer. Lightning started s04 fires
in the state during the year, and of
these 100 were started almost simuitane
ously More than 100 fires were started
off government property, and Of these
