DavldS0n, York Have Vacation,
 Warm Springs
A. J. Elm ployees Enjoy Fishing of All Kinds
 Trout Tn Baranof

Harry G. Davidson and Charles F. York of the Alaska Juneau d Mining Company returned t9 Iu neau on the M. s. Dart from Warm Springs and Baranof. Ate e'- the hot baths for which " .n Springs is noted they return feeling more fit than ever.
 II is with real enthusiasm that they outline the interesting en- counters of their vacation. A ten minute walk takes one to Baranof Lake. The lake IS about three miles long and well stocked With cutthroat trout.
 York who is an expert fisher man, took advantage of their hearty appetites.
 Tt is real sport he says, ito get fish at every cast" On one occasion trout leaped into he boat while he was fishing. Tn cut ting the water while being played , it worked itself loose only to land itseIf in the skiff much to York $ astonishment. The trout avera@e from 10 to Is isches long and are particularly Ill m erous at the mouths of two big creeks at the head of the lake.
 At present the eco boys are constructing a gravel trail up the 1 hill to the edge of the lake where roWboats are available for the re- mainder of the trip. Also under construction is a shelter cabin al the head of the lake for protec- | ton to those unfortunate in en- countering a sudden wind os rair storm. '.
 A big halibut was the cause O great excitement in Warm Spring at the time of York and David sons stay there The big fish haC been snagged about six times anC succeeded in walking away with th' hook every time. It was seen twice and is judged to weigh about 300 1 pounds. York exercised all his fish ing technique with fond hopes o1 landing it before his departure The lalibut is still swimming around. But says York, "I'll gel him next year, he'll be wortf about twelve hooks by that time.
 Warm Springs Bay is famous fol black bass. The two vacationists had fine time fishing for them.
 William McBlain is Postmaster at Warm Springs. He enjoys hay ing oldtimers go around to visit He is feeling better aftor a short period of illness.
 1 Another point of interest in Bar anof is the Bahovec Mink Ranch next to the waterfall. They have fine, dark mink, a strain from A Dickson, of Carcross, of the Yukon Territory. Specimens from then flower and vegetable gardens would l be prize winners.
 The weather was cooperative II making York and Davidson's vaca- ton pleasant one, in fact there were others who complained abou the heat. In view of their flint report, York and Davidson un dcubtedly found Warm Springs ar ideal vacation spot.

ance locally was labeled as one of the
finest Of burlesque comedians. He is
maintaining his position Mr.. Fer
gueson has the most natural style of
working of any mirth-provoker pres
emily touring Mr.. Hirst's circuit, and
he offers several touches that are new
and thoroughly amusing. He is at his
best in the scenes that utilize the
talents of Mary Murray, q superb
character foil.
Beauty is present in the persons of
Valerie Parks, Dorothy De Haven and
the aforementioned Miss Murray.

scored an instant success on the oc-
casion of her previous appearance
here this season. She has the pull
chritude and the manner that makes

the Ninth street house. Miss De
Haven does not participate in the

bic work in the scenes, dances and

bers. Miss Murray is not bad, either.

The final group Of most artists re-

plan Of presenting the very best by
finishing his program in the same vein,
Included in this last group was

and always under superb control. his
highly developed musical sense and
the depth Of sentiment which now
characterizes his playing adorned
these numbers as it did his entire pro-
gram with rare quality of beauty. 1t
was an inspiring performance by a
supreme artist in an ideal mood of in
spiration.
A half hour of encores followed with
almost the entire audience remaining
in its seats. Among the additional
numbers were Sarasate's "Zapateado,"

Heifetzs Interpretation that the effec
was enthralling. It was a program fol
which q special vote Of thanks should
be rendered the artist, not only be-
cause 1t was good to hear such choice
numbers but because of the new beauty
he was able to bring out of them by
his fine musical insight.
There are many artists who follow
tho natural bend Of their talent in
their interpretations, but with Heifetz
one feels that he has studied out the
effects that he wants and that he
achieves them by intention. The great
value OF his work lies in this fact, that
he definitely has q reason for every
thing that he does His playing proves
what mature thought can accomplish
when directed by so superior musical
intelligence as he possesses. Again,
ne Is modernist, up to the minute in
every new way of embellishing his art
and at no moment allowing himself to
follow the line of least resistance. He
takes infinite trouble to gain his ef-
1ects. sometimes augmenting the dif-
ficulties Of passage for q better re-
suit.
All this was apparent to q marked
degree yesterday, especially in the
opening numbers of his program.
which comprised Handers Sonata in
D Major" the Bach "Chaconne" and
the Mozart Concerto in D Major"
He revivified their classic lines by an
infinite variety Of beautiful touches
which served to emphasize what the
composer must have intended and
which so few artists have the vision to
see in its entirety. The Handel sonata
was exquisite. limpid and radiant in
It's delineation, while the "Chaconne"
was q revelation in the noble breadth
with which Heifetz played it. Built up
with artistic planning it grew in
grandeur with every phrase. The ripe
ness and the business of Mr.. Heifetz's
analysis in both the "Chaconne" and
the Handel number. through which he
injected some changes into the ordi-
nary reading, gave additional suayity
OF effect and depth Of beauty to his
Interpretation.
AS a master of contrasting color. he
excelled in the Mozart concerto which
was as lovely and graceful a presenta-
tlon as one could imagine. The music
glows with the delicate vivacity, the
poetical impulse and the graciousness
OF idea which Mozart delighted to ex-
press and which can only be repro
duced by master at shading. Heifetz
brought all his powers to bear on a
superb balancing of light and shade
and the dainty fashioning of phrase
on phrase using the pure, ethereal
quality Of his tone with ingratiatinp
effect.
This same purity Of tone warmed
by poetic feeling gave a special charm
