Fourteen teachers wrote on the ex-
aminations held here on Thursday, Fri
day and Saturday, the smallest group
that has ever been examined in this
county. The fewness of the teachers
is attributed to the severe weather but
even this did not deter several. one
coming Il distance of 20 miles by stage
and train.
With the exception Of one, all of
the teachers wrote for second grade
certificates. One Of the candidates, a
college student from Iowa. was some

OVER 5000 FOREST
FIRES WERE CAUSED
IN SEASON Of 1921
Burned Area Covered $4,000
Acres; Man, Caused Blazes
Reach Mark of 400.
Tribune's Washington Bureau)

Washington. ID. c., Dec. 19.-NearIy
5000 forest fires were started in the
national forests of the country during
392l. is the statement of Chief For
ester William b. Greedy in his annual
report of the forest service. United
states department of agriculture, just
issued.
one-fourth of these fires were
caused by lightning and one-third are
directly attributed to the carelessness
OF campers. Brush burners. lumber
men, Incendiaries, and railroads are re-
sponslble for the bulk of the remaining
fires.
Damage Was $4,000
Over 375,0O0 acres of national forest
land were burned over. a total damage
of more than $780, 900. The cost to
the nation for fighting these fires
amounted to $5532,811.
The 49, fire season is no more than
over, the report continues, SO that no
statistics covering it can be given. In
Oregon and Washington it has been the
most severe in some years. The usual
May and June rains failed, and fires
set to clean up slash on private lands
burned into the danger period, with re-
sulting great losses to property and
growing timber. The national forests
have not suffered as severely as out
side timber lands,
Outside of the Pacific northwest the
season has so far been somewhat more
favorable than 1921, with the excep-
ton of a late period of hot Sire wealth
er" and unusual hazard in California.
Few Lightning BIazes
There have been comparatively few
lightning fires, and this has meant alb
sence of punching" of fires which has
so often proved to be more than the
protective forces could handle.
"The total number Of ~man-caused
fires rose from 1896 to AGO and was
only four per cent less than in 1919.
as against 30 per cen less in 1920"
said the report. Between 5000, 900
and 100000 persons visit the ma
tionai forests each year. The marked
fire increase caused by campers. brush
burning and incendiarism is disturbing.
The forest service has made every eff
fsrt possible with its available funds
to reduce the number of these unnee-

der time of it, for, although they instant
attention and praise for their Interpretation
of Ibsen and their Russian repertoire at the
Criterion Theater, they got into booking and
financial difficulties.
Oreneff returned to Russia disheartened
while his pupil remained under persuasion, to
learn English and appear on Broadway. Sur
prising even her most ardent admirers, Naz-
mastered the strange tongue in the
space of six months and appeared under the
management Of Henry Miller at the Princess
Theater in November, 1905, in ''Hedda Cab
ler," following it with other Ibsen items
from her Russian repertory and beginning the
career which has kept her on the stage ever
since.
Orlenef and his band had probably been
pushed out of Russia by the difficult condi-
tons Of living which followed the 1905 revo-
luton The next esthetic ambassador to come
in person admitted fugitive from that
revolution and the black reaction which trailed
it. He was Maxim Gorky, already famed in

But he came with Nine. Andreievna not vet

the tone of the publicity he had received was
not conducive to artistic creation and he soon
departed for Europe and the hospitality of
Capri.
For several years other Russian artist
dared to encounter rebuff in America Then,
in 1908, three of them came, of whom two
received the traditionally cold reception, while
the third won almost instantaneous and SEN
sational favor.
Of the failures Of that season, the great
Russian barytone Fyodor Chaliapin was the
most inexplicable victim. For years he had

which has already passed. didn't you hear
Chaliapn when he came the first time?"
Don't you remember what sensation Paw
Iowa caused on her first tour?" ooh, you
should have seen the great Kommissarzhev-
skaya when she played here-let me see how
many years ago was it?" These are the ques-
tions and the comments we hear on every hand
Very few of us did see or can remember more
than two three of these tantalizing items.
And so it may be comforting to have them
brought to mind in sequence. We can at least
enjoy them vcariously in that way and talk
little more intelligcntly at the dinner table.
The advance heralds and rumors of the
Russian invasion date back far beyond the
arrival in the flesh Of the earliest pioneers.
They were hardly recognized at the time as
promises and harbngers of all that has actu-
ally happened, but as we look back on them
now we can see that they were the billboard
announcements of the coming show. George
kenrans articles on the Russian exile sys-
tenn in Siberia in "The Century Magazine"
first awakened us generally in this country.
In music, Tchaikovsky, and in literature
Tolstoy, Turgenieff and DostoievsAy prepared
the way. Dramatic harbingers by proxy in
cluded Blanche Walsh in Tolstoy's "Resur-
rection" at the Victoria Theater, New York,
in 1908, and Richard Mansfeld's pretentious
production Of Count Alexei Tblstoy's 'Ivan
the Terrible" at the Knickerbocker Theater
New York in March, 1904
The vanguard of the real Russians arrived
the following year. 1t consisted of small
company headed by the itinerant actor-man-
ager, Paul OrleneR, and including as its most
talented member, aside from Orleneff, his
pupil and protege, ALA Nazimova. The news

ww = HEN the circus comes to town there
VA are many who pay no attention to
w the gorgeous participants in the
parade until the strange notes Of
the calliope break on the ear While clowns
caper and horses prance, while barbaric cages
rumble past exposing to view the still more
barbaric jungle creatures or hiding them mys-
teriously from sight, even while brass bands
clang and jangle, the occupied citizen sticks to
his desk, leaving the crowded curb to those
who have day off, But under the lure of the
calliope windows open, necks crane, and if the
elephants doubling back on their tracks
block away the new onlooker pried from his
work may hustle around to the corner to
snatch a belated glimpse of the whole parade.
Balieff and his Chauve-Souris are the CALI
ope Of the Russian cavacade. For years now
the Russian parade has been passing our
doors. From the beginning it has had small,
enthusiastic audience. The general public,
however, was APPARENTLY unaware that the Mus
covite circus had come to town until the
BaliefP calliope reused it's attention In the
gay peasant songs, the extravagant humors
and the colorful stage settings Of the Chauve-
Souris there was an arresting note like that
of the calliope, which brought the populace to
the windows. And within the space of few
weeks New York and the entire country from
Boston to San Francisco has found itself in
the grip of Russian vogue Russian fad.
The Russian circus has come into its own.

talking Russian.
