Looking forward toward the fair, and its hoped-for benefits to the whole Western whipe, with San Francisco as a eleartuis-houwe for the induced visita tion, the penentaire of visitors from abroad ami especially from Central and South America I aluiort alarmingly iTi,ill. From all Kurupe. out of a total tf pi .ii t it-ally oh) arrivals at San Krarn't.-ico'i foremost hotels, there came only ! people in January; from all 2 f the L.ttin American republics only with but four tif them frcm the h'ixe continent of South America.

And now, while Oregon has been sendlna nearly ( of her home people to San Francisco's leatliiiK hotels each month. (fKon has been aettinn indirect arood irom the conversations of these peo ple on trains and jn hotels. An interesting thmp in connection with the analv! of travel's trend at San Francisco is the demonstration of the capacity of hotel?. No San Fran cisco hotel has ever, even for a single nifchl. held more guests than a number represented by its total of guest rooms multiplied by 1.4. An average of two people to a room is never posMible any where, and the average at the better und binder hotels is not generally one to a room. This does not mean that hot ls are running partly vacant. It accounts. for suites of rooms having but me bed-room along with parlor:. Trav elers with means pay the price but it does mt fake so many such guests to till a Jiotel. That is the case with the Fairmont, which crowns Nob Hill In San Francisco. There many of the room a are occupied by permanent quests and the jio-HibiJities of daily accommodations are comparatively small at limes. The Saint Francis, paired with the Palace in a close and interesting professional rivalry, often turns quests away ami me ntewurt, which does a transient business that is amuzini; to Western hotel men, regu larly sends some of its overflow to smaller hotels. The unique position so long occupied by the old occidental Ho tel which was never rebuilt after the lire, has evidently been ' inherited by the Stewart, judging from the diversity of its sources of guests and its island and army trad, its lobby of an even ing being a iiute parliament of na tions. , 0 After Portland, it is remarkable how many Oregon people are registered In San Francisco from Medford. Are Best Travelers It is Interesting also, to note that of the total daily arrivals at San Fran cisco's more Important hotels, titi per cent are men. 31 per cent women, and only three per cent children. Men make up a little more than lluit of the daily total, women about 530, and the kids count for but 50 a day. The divisions Indicate either men come mostly for business or find Winter travel In Cali fornia and staying at very comfortable hotels a hardship too great fo( faril woman to endure. The children are apparently left at home as a matter of economy. ' Where They f eme Front. v. T. x H - Z E 5 ? . : -- -fe L't.l 1 lH.vi! 4:u; 7'.":;4 H7 hNj, -."' n: ; 7i- Ouest rooms .......

In the belief of City Attorney Orunt. and the Portland Automobile Club ouylit to draft and foster such a bill, according to his state ment at the elub's annual dinner at the Multnomah Hotel ThurRduy nifcht. He told of secine an 'elderly .woman near ly run down by an automobile and a truck yesterday. Her life was saved by the pollcemnn stationed on the cor ner, he said. Ho said further that the City Council Is ready to co-operate with the rortlaml Automobile Club in any move it makes toward the better ment of traffic conditions. Portland, he snid. Is rapidly becoming a metro politan city. Pedestrlau. Are Criticised. Oeoree W. Stapleton told of the per son who takes up the road with a hay wagon loaded and compels the autoist to s;o on low gear for miles. "Then." he continued, "there is the class of persons who drive wood wagrons, meet and stop in the middle of the road to talk, while you wait to pass, and ulti mately take the ditch. Another and more dansrerous. occupies an elevated position upon the back of a motorcy cle. Finully. there Is the galloping steed, which you are unable to pass and which scoops up the dust for you to swallow, smilins back at yoy mean while. There is the pedestrian who deliberately steps from the sidewalk In front of your machine, seeminRly absorbed in other things. Some of them defy you to run over them. "Hut there are some reckless auto mobile drivers who are responsible for the feeling of the pedestrian acainst the autoists. He does not seem to realize that the person on the street driving: a vehicle with less power than he controls has any rights on the street." KilrrUlamol I. I'leanlus;. Much of the evening- entertainment was in a Jocular vein, one member of the company Imitating K. Henry Wemme. who was not present. "Wem me" lukl of his troubles in building the Mount Hood road.

IT MAY be psychic force; it may be sheer animal magnetism, or again It may be ineffaceable memories of her Pu Barry of other days but certain It Is. whatever" it is, Mrs. Leslie Car ter has the gift which compels atten tion. Her methods of expression, her super-abundance- of emotion may be discussed with technical approval or disapproval, but she commands Inter est. No amount of critical analysis can successfully challenge the claim to atten;ion constUuted by her subtle power of personality, her shadings of speech, and the impalpable Individu alism of pose and gesture. Since "Pu Barry" and the days of Belasco's management. Mrs. Carter's greatest problem has been in equipping herself with a new and suitable play. Her latest vehicle. "Two Women," re vealed at the Hellig last night, is something of a compromise, so far as I he personal exploitation of tiie star is concerned. While, the play does not bear tle mn1e-to-Mrs.-Carier-s-order-while-she-waited trade mark, it is. for all that, a grafting of the actress's personality to that older form of stage entertainment, melodrama. Quite as certainly the piece is a drama of ingeniously developed sus pense and climax and as presented by Mrs. Carter's company of high av erage - of comietence, the production may be depended upon to hold close attention. Tho slory proper, or improper. If one desires to call a spade a spado, is a contrasting of the souls of two women; one soul angelic and the other wicked, having been lodged in duplicate femi nine bodies and brought In contact with one man. Count Uemey de Marg I. having made ducks and drakes of. his patri mony, marries a se.-imstress, all ten derness and optimistic youth, who works her fingers to the bone and her body into the grave to help him sue ceed as an artist. When, finally, for tune smiles on his efforts, . the hard working wife has passed beyonl need of It. Two years later, in a Parisian cafe, the Count, now rich, meets .Teannlne. a notorious character, who is physically the counterpart of his lost .leannette. The Count prevails upon her to come to his humble cottage, kept in memory of the dead wife, to pose as a model for an uncompleted portrait of Jean nette. So affected'is -the dancer by the simplicity and decency of her new surroundings that she begins the pro cess of regeneration. She loves Remey and when he would leave her, prompt ly apprises him of her devotion. He repulses h.r and she goes back to the old life, where Remey follows her, having discovered his great fondness for her when he loses her. A tremendous scene is enacted here, a scene which Rupert Hughes In serted in the drama expressly to per mit Mrs. Carter to reach one of her famous cresccndcs of emotion This scene transpires in the home of her former patron. Pascal, and during its half-hour enactment, .leannine. Remoy and Pascal, mouth vituperation and terrible accusations. ending with Kemey leaving to fight a duel with Pascal and Jeannlne writhing in truly Carteresque' contortions across a divan. In the last act. Uemey is threatened with blindness and Jeanninc has been regenerated Into a Red Cross nurse, devoted slave, housekeeper and fiancee. The problem crudely formulated is whether a woman having sinned all her life of her own volition should merit the affection and forgiveness accorded her. and. too. whether the re generation "took." Even after wit nessing Mrs. Carter and her excellent players pre.-ent the case the answer is not the expected romantically unani mous affirmative. That Mrs. Carter's svmpathy wltii :he two roles is Intense cannot be doubtd. but like the immor tal little girl wlt'i the curl, "when she was good she was very, very good, and when she was bad she was horrid." Of he-r company Franklyn I'nderwood as Remy shares honors unreservedly wltht he" star. He plays with little or no makeup, and his assumption of the French painter's mannerisms are as complete as bis own personality al lowed. Throughout the tremendous climaxes, which Mrs. Carter insists on having In with every act, Mr. Under wood was the strength and main sup port of her triumph In emotion, and did his own work with notable ease and surety. Frances Slosson, another Portland favorite, and like Mr. Underwood, a former Baker player, scored and gave actual being to a role of a little coun try maid who. under the tutelage of Jeannlne's friends, goes also through a transformation from good to bad. The anconii scene of the play is a twin-sister to the last scene of "The Merry Widow." with its similar set ting in a Paris cafe. Mrs. Carter's gowns are marvels of color and texture, and save for the two acts in which she floats around as a JO-year-old girl in a white rotM she is gay in purple and fine linen. Scen Icsllv the production Is beautiful. The attraction will run at the Ileilig until and including Saturday night, with a Saturday inailnee.

The messages said, however, that the Jewels already have been re stored to tho Countess, detectives re covering them in a Karape. The jewels that tempted the thief were a part of the wealthy- Countess' imiRniflcent collection, which she has added to considerably since her mar riage. Miss Glady Vanderbilt became the Countess Szechenyi at a brilliant so ciety weddlntc January 28, 108, at the VonderbiW mansion on Fifth avenue. The lavish expenditures and the pomp which marked the ceremony attracted wide attention to it. While 350 of New York society's elect and a few of the European colony witnessed the services in the Vander bilt home, special details of police kept I back thousands of the curious, who all but invaded the mansion Itself.
