BREED THEATER. An Affair of Hearts, Biograph Feature. In the delightful comedy film of the Riograph company featured. at the Ereeq theater this week there s ag abundance of true, refined, genuin fun, and the story is a bright little one, parkling with excruciatingly funny Stations and brilllant with gorgeous glimpses of the glories of the,golden west. Two impulsive hearted French- men become enamored of & pretty passing women, heedless of the disas- ter that may follow their attentions, and upon pressing their case are led by the mischievous little woman into numberiess traps, all of which are ri- diculous in the extreme, until finally =hs allows them to call at her home, and at the opportune time introduces her stalwart husband, and the French- men find they have pressing engage- ments elsewhere. The big western feature entleled The Cowboy’s Sweetheart is & gem in its class, and calls for the highest com- mendation for the excellence of pho- tography and acting, as well as con- sistency of plot. Mr. Loud sings the prettv illustrated songs Foxy Moon, und Back to My Old Home Town. \ PERSONALITIES. John Rusgin remained a healthy and brcad minded man despite his parents instead of by their help. Such is the conclusion arrived at by Ada Earland in her book entitled “Ruskin and His Circle.” His parents, who were rich and middle class, did their best to spoil him. When he went to Oxford his mother and nurse took rooms in the city to be near him. Even marriage proved no emancipation. “Where |is vour husband?” young Mrs. Ruskin wae asked on one occasion, and the answer given was, “He is with his mother. He ought to have married her” Soon after this a decree of nullity was obtained by Mrs. Ruskin and she married Sir John Milais. Ruskin's subservience to his mother's influence continued until the latter's death, which did not take place until he wes over 50. In later life Ruskin formed & deep attachment for Rose LaTouche, a girl of 18. She refused, however, to “voke herself with an un- believer,” and died shortly afterward. Branstome’s memoirs _contribute a pleasing anecdote concerning kissing customs of the sixteenth century. The cardinal of Lorraine went to pay his respects to the duchess of Savoy, and it is recorded as typical of her haughti- ness that she held out her hand for The cardinal, furious at , seized her by the head and administered two or three kisses, ex- elaiming “I kiss the queen, my mis- tress, who is the greatest queen In the world, and I am not to kiss you, who are only a dirty little duchess (une petite duchesse crotte)!” Mrs. Radeliffe confessed that some of the most thrilling incidents in the “Mysteries of Udolpho” were inspired by nightmares produced by supping on pork chops. Tartini, the great wviolin- ist, efter dining indlficrae!ly dreamed that he had made a bargain with the devil for his soul. To prove his powers the evil one seized a violin and played & sonata of exquisite beauty. Tartini awoke with the ringing in his ears, comunitted the music to paper and published it as “The Devil's Sonata.” Great Rush to Alaska. ®ave during the period immediately after the announcement of the great discoveries of gold on the Kiondike had excited the attention of the whole world, there has never been such a rush to the northern gold fields as is taking place this year with the open- tng of navigation. The first steamships going mnorth have been loaded with passengers to the extreme limit al- Jowed by law and practically all of the space on the earlier steamers has Deen taken. It is the prgsint estimate that during the month o than 15,000 passengers will leave Se- attis for Alaska. The majority will make their way iii by the White Horse route and down the Yukon by steam- ers_ but many will take the toilsome journey across country from Vald or Seward, as it is easier to get steam- ship passage to those points. The opening of new districts in Alaska is responsible for the great in- crease in the number of those going north this season. The present show- ings_ in the Iditarod camps, for ex- ample. are fully equal to those made by the Tanana camps at the same pér- iod of their development, and in the opinion of many on the ground are even better. Indeed, comparisons are made more often with the Klondike than with any other of the intericr camps. The majority of those going norta have a defnite purpose, They are the regulars, who go north every summer, with a full knowledge of what awaits them and, in most cases, with the cer- tainty of profitable employment for the season. Others are going in order to zet in early in the new camps and take their chances. Of those going north, collectively, the probabilities are that those qualified for the work which they are seeking will do well. In case they are disappointed in the new camps, the older camps will fur- nish abundance of employment, for the present complaint from the Tanana country, taken as a sample, is that there is lkely to be severe shortage of Jabor, owing to the great numbers who bave ‘gone o the new diggings.
