" Joseph Morak, a bartender employed in a saloon at S35 First street, was .arrested on a charge of bigamy yesterday by Deputy Sheriff James Stott, In response to a telegram from Sheriff A. F. Kees, at Walla Walla. The man was locked up In the county Jail to await the arrival of an officer from Washington with requisition papers. It is charged that Morak mar ried Bertha Shlpp, a 17-year old girl at East Portland. September 22, 1901, when he had a wife living. The latter was formerly Delia Fortune, a Salem girl, whom Morak married in 1S93, when she was 16 years old. Morak several days ago lled suit in the State Circuit Court against Delia Morak for a divorce, alleg ing in his complaint that she deserted him June 15, 1901. It is stated that she will contest the suit. Morak admits having married Bertha Shlpp. He says he met her in Portland and fell in love with her. and went with her to Walla Walla. A pe tition for a writ of habeas corpus was filed last night, and will be called up be fore Judge Sears this morning. Wild Deer Visits G lend ale. A Port lander, who has just returned from a trip to Glendale, in the famous Cow Creek Canyon, says that recently a wild deer emerged from the underbrush and eedate ly stalked up the main street of the town. The deer was first seen as tho train was pulling Into the depot and some of the passengers wanted to take a shot at it. but they were in doubt as to whether the deer wae tame or wild and whether the laws of Glendale permitted 6uch sports manship. While they were settling the doubts the deer disappeared and then they learned that it was not a part of the taxable property of the city. A short time previously, the traveler says, a cougar walked up the main street and was shot and killed by a boy 15 years old. From these two instances, he says, it must not be Inferred that the cougar and the deer are in the habit of visiting Glen dale regularly, as some old residents hod told him that they were generally scarce and the hunters had to go to the hills to look for them. Caulker's Bad Fall. R. Crawford, the old and well-known colored caulker, who hae been following his business over 50 years, met with an unpleasant mishap on one of the scows being built for the Port of Portland at the South Portland boat-yard, yesterday morning. The "scow is only partially completed, and part of her bottom is not in. Crawford crawled up through the opening in "the bottom to get out on top so as to go to work on the side. In some way after climbing up to the deck he fell a distance of about 15 feet through the hole in the bottom, striking against timbers In his descent, badly bruising and abralsing himself in several placea He was able to hobble on home, and notwithstanding that he is oVer 70 years of age hopes soon to be at -.work again. Crawford learned his trade 1 of caulking In St. Louis, when he was a slave, and purchased his own freedom, with the connivance of one of the steam boat men he was working for, who was a black Republican.

"Let me go this time and I'll leave town and never come back here again," murmured James Casey, yesterday, in the Municipal Court, in answer to another charge of drunkenness and disorderly conduct. "You have been in jail too often, Casey, and you have been teo well fed at the ex pense of the taxpayers," replied Munici pal Judge Hogue. "Casey threatened to Jump into the river Monday night, but was prevented by Policeman Gibson. He's a 'trusty' around the jail, and the last time he was sentenced, he ran away.

OrcRon Association Will Extend Lines nnd Fight Cut Rates. The annual convention of the Oregon State Pharmaceutical Association was opened in Allsky Hall yesterday after noon, with a gpod representation from all sections. President B F. Jones de livered his annual address, In which he laid special .stress on the importance of extending the membership. He suggested the appointment of a special committee to look over the plans adopted in the Eastern States, and see If some of them cannot be adapted to this state, or to put some other plan In motion, if practicable. He dwelt on the need of individual ef fort to secure larger attendance at the meetings, and of work by committees to bring new members in. He recommended the passage of a resolution Indorsing the National Association pf Retail Druggists, of which the Oregon association is a member, saying of It: "They are strengthening the lines all along the front and are advancing a little wherever possible, and that its moral ef fect is altogether good In that It creates a respect for the trade which It would be utterly impossible for ug to attain or retain as Individuals." One subject with which the convention will deal Is 'the ch rates for drugs made by department stores on bargain days, -which eat into the profits of the regular druggists. The officers are: B. F. Jones, president. Portland; V. H. Chastaln, first vice-presi dent Milton: H. J. Martin, second vice- president Portland; Miss M. M. Newman, third vice-president Ontario; A. W. Allen, secretary.

Go to tne Portland Restaurant, 305 "Washington st. AT THE THEATERS Appreciation of "The Tempest" as pre sented by Mr. Warde and Mr. James, drew a great crowd ofFortlanders to the Marquam last night The wonderful stage effects, the brilliancy of the ballet the ethereal grace of the music, all add to the masterful work of the principals. Shakespeare's name alone would attract; and, when one may see the work of the greatest 6f dramatists, fitly set with con summate care and art lovers of beauty feel that absence Is guilt. Perhaps few realize that the opportun ities to see "The Tempest" on the stage have been very rare. Both England and America have waited long years without a single chance, and when it comes it Is marked on the calendar as a season of plenty. Caliban, as played by Mr. James, is a characterization attempted by few. Mr. James has given peculiar force to this stage gnome, given him the shad ow of a soul, turned his uncouth appetites into passions', tinted his nebulous thought with the reflected rays of human life. Creative acting like this has marked the production as distinctive, and the atten tion granted It here is not misplaced. This afternoon the matinee performance will begin somewhat later than usual. The curtain will rise at 2:30 Instead pf at 2:15, as ordinarily. Tonight will be the last chance to see Mr. Warde and Mr. James In "The Tempest" Miss Maxwell will take the part of Miranda at these performances, and the play will be given in finished style. Cordray Entertains the Longshore men's Union. The amusement committee of the Long shoremen's Union, now holding a con vention In this city, has secured a section of the parquet at Cordray's for this even ing, and will attend "Down Mobile" In a body. Already a number of other local unions are arranging for tickets. The fire scene in "Down Mobile" was discov ered in the following sensational manner by the author. Lincoln J. Carter: One night on Mr. Carter's returning home, he was horrified to see the Interior of the nursery a seething mass of flames. With only one thought that of his boy he rushed Into the house and up the stairs, to find the boy perfectly safe and sound. Being of a practical turn of mind, he started In to find the cause of the Illu sion. It was very simple. His wife had left a dress pattern or red silk on the nursery table in a somewhat crumpled condition. The night being warm, the window has been opened. A little breeze to wave the silk, the light shining through, and one of the greatest stage fire illusions of the age had been born In the playwright's mind. Police Can't Stop "Mary Mngdalena." BERLIN, Oct. 7. Paul Heyse's drama, "Mary Magdalena," which the police for bade, will have a presentation after all at the Less!ng Theater. The police presi dent failed today to prove before the Dis trict Court that the play is blasphemous and Immoral. The police acted Under a Ministerial decree In forbidding theatrical representations of biblical characters, and theatrical managers and the public .were much Interested in the case. COMING ATTRACTIONS. "The County Fair" Tomorrow Night. Nell Burgess in "The County Fair" will be the attraction at the "Marquam Grand Theater one night only, Thursday, Octo ber 9. Advance Sale for Sonsa Opens Today. This morning, at 10 o'clock, the advance sale of seats will open for the two con certs Mr. John Philip Sousa and his fam ous band will give at the Marquam Grand Theater next Friday afternoon and night, October 10. "Tho Penitent" Snturday Night. W. E. Nankevllle's production of "The Penitent," Hall Calne's powerful play, will be the -attraction at the Marquam Grand Theater next Saturday night The sale of seats will open Thursday morn ing, at 10 o clock. "Nevada" at Coruray's. The breezy manner in which Mr. Fred Darcy, the young Philadelphia author, has treated his play of a Western mining camp, Nevada, has proved to be one of the season's successes. Miss Elsa Ryan, the new star, who won so many friends as Madge In Jacob Lltt's "In Old Kentucky," will be greeted with pleasure as Dolly Gray. Her characterization of this "pet of the camp" is one of the most natural performances to be seen. "The Christian" Next nt the Baker. "The Christian," Hall Caine's wonderful story In dramatic form, wll be presented at tne uaKer j. neater next week, begin ning Sunday afternoon, October 12. The successful plays of the past decade pale Into Insignificance beside this strange and beautiful drama, written by a powerful novelist, dramatized by him, and produced by a liberal management that prides itself in surprising the public. "The Christian' has made the phenomenal record of having played at over double the average receipts of the representative theaters of the con tinent. The why of the success Is easily understood. "The Christian" appeals not only to all classes of theater-goers, but to those who seldom or never attend a dramatic performance. Though powerful, the story is strictly moral, and It advises a liberal religion, which, acceptable to all, does not offend any sect or creed. One of the strongest proofs of this was offered up In a special matinee given at the Knickerbocker Theater, November 3, 1S9S, it being attended by 330 ministers of all different denominations, many of whom had never been Inside a theater. For weeks .after this memorable performance the offices of Lleblcr & Co. were deluged with letters and personal visits from emi nent representatives of the church, all speaking In the highest terms of the beauty of the play, the purity of Its lesson and the dignity of the players. These salient points show why "The Christian" Is the greatest melodramatic success of the century. Oregon City Nevrs. OREGON CITY, Oct. 7. (Special.

REPORT OF FISH WARDEN Va"n Dnscn Gives Work Done at Flab. Hatcheries This Season. SALEM, Or., Oct. 7. (Special.) In his monthly report, filed today, Master Fish Warden H. G. Van Dusen made a state ment of the work done at each of the fish hatcheries and stations thus far this sea son. Tho report says: At the Clackamas hatchery they got through taking eggs August 31, and only succeeded In getting-1,454,000. At the Salmon River hatchery only 1,003, 000 eggs of the early chinook variety wero secured, as previously reported. Afc the McKenzle River station they be gan getting eggs August 19, and up to September 29 had succeeded in taking oao, 000. From reports received from this sta tion we may expect a few more eggs, for they still have salmon In their traps for spawning purposes, and will be able to get a few more eggs, though no great addi tional quantity Is expected. At the Grand Ronde station they began getting eggs September 13, and up to Sep tember 27 had succeeded In taking 1,624, 000. They have now on hand between their racks salmon enough from which to get about as many more eggs as what they have so far reported. At the Ontario station no eggs had been taken up to September CO. At that sta tion they have a fine lot of chinook sal mon between their racks, ready for spawning purposes, and should be able to get from them a large quantity of eggs.. Superintendent Brown figures that he should begin getting eggs inside of a week or 10 days. At the Wilson River station they are virtually through taking eggs from the chinook variety of salmon. They began getting their eggs September 19. and fin ished up September 27. Only 153,000 eggs were secured. At this station we will also attempt to do work with the sllverslde variety of salmon, which are beginning to come nlong now, and should be ready to spawn within another month or six weeks. At the Yaqulna station no eggs have been secured as yet. We have everything In readiness here at this station, and a fine lot of salmon between the racks, but as yet they have not begun to spawn. At the Alsea station the first eggs were taken September 16, and up to September 27 53,500 were secured. On the Sluslaw only two attempts have been made to take eggs; September 18 6300 were taken, September 23 5300 were taken, making a total of 11.C00. On the Umpqua they began getting eggs September 6, and up to September 30 had succeeded In taking 615,000. At that time they had a few salmon remaining between their racks from which eggs would be se cured, but It would not Increase the num ber reoorted very materially. No eggs have as yet been taken at the South Coos River or Coqullle stations. The fees collected by the Fish Warden during September; amounted to $5. FRITZ'S NEW THEATER.
