Overcome Them," He Says.
pleted his course of free lectures,
Baron Fersen will harvest his crop
of students in the "Science of Be
ing" at the modest fee of J50 a
course. To understand, thoroughly
and familiarly, how to vibrate in
tune with the infinite, ought easily,
to be worth that much. You can
become a human radio. The baron
says so. .
If any of the lecturer's previous
pupils in metaphysical instruction,
who crudely threatened suit on the
basis of a most distressing misun
derstanding, were numbered among
the audience they did not manifest
their presence by a single catcall.
The vibrations were on the job.
TRIBUTES PI WILSON
EX-PRESIDENT HONORED AS
HIGH TYPE AMERICAN.
The baron returned to his Port
land neophytes Thursday, night.
Who? None other than Baron Eugene
Fersen, late of Moscow, Russia
the same that terminated a local
course in psychology last May by a
most distressing financial argument
with practical pupils. They even
threatened to sue. No .matter. The
baron, large of heart, returned.
Lincoln high school auditorium
was filled with an attentive and.
earnest audience. The- great red
curtains of the stage screened the
"internationally -well-known scien
tist," while an Introducer waxed
discursive. Despite the fact that
Baron Fersen ia of the Russian nobility,-
said this herald, his heart Is
that of a thorough-going democrat.
Versed in science, metaphysics and
psychology, he waived his arlatoc
racy and came as a message bearer,
as a man.
War Hated by Baron.
For a moment the psychological
moment the baron framed himself
in the parted draperies. Then with
simple dignity he strode forward,
folded his arms and bent his sleek
dark head in silent acknowledge
ment of the flutter of applause. The
baron hates war. He said as much,
with a flirt of the hand, a subdued
flash of eyes, yet he was attired like
a captain of horse all save the
Bpurs. Tunic, riding breeches, belt
and stiff tan boots. Grave silence,
pregnant, fateful. Then the voice
of Baron Fersen.
The voice of Baron Fersen is wellj
enough. The accent of the demo
cratic scion of a banished nobility
is all that a foreign accent should
be. It is distinctive and is sprinkled
zestfully with "v" and "d." The
charm of such-a vocal attribute was
aptly illustrated when the eminent
metaphysician, narrating an inci
dent of his scientific career, lapsed
into the vernacular with "Well, I
Eaya Nobody tittered. Neighbor
did not nudge neighbor. These little
idiosyncracies afe as permlssable to
the itinerant scientist as is the pa
tent of the true Bostonian upon1 that
trenchant noun, "idear." Regard,
then, the baron with his arms
folded.
Mankind of Two Types.
Mankind, said he, may roughly be
classified in two types the con
structive optimists, the destructive
optimists. He bade his hearers join
the battered but invincible legion of
the former and to fit themselves for
the fray. Trouble, said he in brief,
Is always just around the corner.
But if you are a constructive op
timist and prepare for trouble you
are enabled to deal a telling punch
before your nemesis has pulled on
the gloves. It is very simple. Theo
dore Roosevelt said something, sev
eral times, almost to the same ef
fect, but not precisely to the same
purpose. fc
"You know very well," said the
baron with a simple but fetching
gesture, "that most of the unpleas
ant things in, life, if you are
warned against them, there is some
means to overcome them, but if you
are not prepared well there you
are "
Everyone Grasps Point.
Naturally. Everyone grasped the
point. There you are, indeed, prone
in the lists with a truck horse and
his armored rider prancing over your
recumbent anatomy. It seemed odd
that the baron should be the bearer
of such a message, that a palpitant
and pusillanimous Portland had
been forced to wait until he came
to make the matter clear. Not en
tirely surprising, however: for. ai
Baron Fersen pityingly said, this is
the child age of the world.
And one had to admit that, some
where, somehow, from the deeps of
knowledge, he had dragged out the
cold truth about candy. Were the
members of that intelligent aud
ience aware that the national bill
for confectionery, for lozenges - and
lollipops and the like, is 51,000,000
000 a year? Such he held to be the
shameful fact.
"You would be surprised to find
out," continued our metaphysician,
"how much money wa spend for un
necessary things, and how very lit
tie for the vital things."
From wintergreens to war. The
baron is prophetic of a world war
that will make the late strife seem.
ay contrast, the dream of a trucu
lent child, n'ke child's nlav. h said.
Though it seemed vaguely reminis
cent of a thousand declarations,
from as many different sources.
Baron Fersen concluded that the
money spent to finance the whole
sale destruction of lives and demoli
tion of property in the war with
Germany might better have been
turned to the causes of humanity
and science. And that was very
true, of course. .
The lecturer turned to scientific
topics, to illustrate the potential
V magic of the human mind. Aircraft,
iradio, terrible instruments of bat
ileiwere proof of an insight and an
Ingetuutthat if turned into proper
channels would redeem the world.
Speaking of -the world, it is gov
erned by- vibrations. Everything
vibrates, and travels and is trans
mitted by v'brations." In Europe
certain scheming- scientists, m-enar-
lng for the initial death blow in the
inevitable conflict,' have perfected
so the baron said an instrument of
such devilish potency that its vibra
tory sound waves will demolish an
army. As the Assyrians perished.
Scattered Snickers Heard.
"Stuff cotton in their ears, you
will say," smiled the baron. "Ah,
no. Cotton will not save them.
They will feel, those soldiers, a lift
ing, a lifting, a lifting, inside of
them, and presently they will be
lifted uj into heaven."
Curiously enough, for all its
tragic import, this appeared to
tickle the risibilities of the audi
ence. There were scattered snick
ers, a few open laughs.
"Nothing," said - the baron, "will
be left save dead bodies,"
Certainly Baron Fersen had the
rapt interest of his audience in his
somewhat elemenetary presentation
ot science ana psycnoiogy, it was
evident that they understood him,
and that to the last of tjfem they
knew the way out of tarmoil is
through constructive optimism. Al
together it was an evening of con
siderable uplift.

signal honor Thursday night from
us, that- she was called Mitzi Hajos,
but no one outside her immediate
friends could pronounce her last
name and so she began leaving it
off and now she is known at home
and abroad as Mitzi.
She has no rivals and no equals as
an entertainer in the place she made
for herself in the -sun. She is a cap
tivating comedienne. She sings
with exquisite tone and plays with
an artistic soubrettishness and re
veals a delicate and sympathetic
sense of the drama.
Her newest vehicle, "Lady Billy,"
is one of the delights of several sea
sons and differs from "Head Over
Heels" as that piece differed from
"Pom Pom", and that in turn dif
fered from "Sari." This offering is
almost light opera and, as is usual
in Mitzi' s productions, affords her
a rollicking part where she is given
ample opportunity to display her
rare and splendid gifts and to be
constantly seen at her best.
Mitzi's public is never so interest
ed in what the charming little co
medienne ig playing. Rather it goes
to. see Mitzi. If she came to us in
the most mediocre piece in the world
we'd still pack ourselves in to see
her -and come away walking on air,
humming her gay little songs and
visioning for long afterward her
lovely little body and her impish
smile. .
Folk who remember Lotta say that

900 Portland men, militant and su

adjutant-general, Brigadier -General

Not only did battery A, as the
senior organization-- of the 147th

United States also paid the Oregon

Battle Rings Received.
Five silver battle rings, denoting
days, later generation can find
no one with whom to compare Mitzi.
She has an- unusual voice, small and
honey sweet, and she sings a flood
of exquisite high notes, clear as a
bell and faultless as an echo. This
peculiar quality in Mitzi's voice is
always brought out beautifully in
whatever songs are written for her.
In. this piece the songs are "Just
Plant a Kiss,"' a comedy conceit;
"Come to Arcady," a plaintive mel
ody of infinite charm; 'Good-bye,
Good-bye," an exquisite waltz theme,
and "If," a character ' Bong which
brings put Mitzi's abundant genius
for travesty. She is a fascinating
clown through much of the piece.

BOY HIKERS ARE SAFE
Hunt Begun for Searching Party
Looking for Belated Trio.
OREGON CITY, Or., Dec. 28.
(Special.) Word from Alfred Row
an, son of W. I. Rowan of Gladstone
one of three boys believed lost on
I.arch mountain, was received by
Mrs. Rowan at 3 o'clock this after
noon. Rowan, Welland Bradley of
West Linn and George Nelson of
Jennings Lodge left Tuesday for
Multnomah falls. The boys encoun
tered a storm and were unable to
descend the trail, being forced to go
cn over the mountain to Bridal Veil,
from where Rowan telephoned his
mother that they were safe.
The boys did not know that they
had Veen listed as missing and now
a hunt has been started for a search
ing party headed by Rowan's father,
with the 32d. division, were . placed
on the battery's battle guidon. The
regimental colors were the original
ones carried in France and returned '
to Portland by the commanding of
ficer ot the 147th regiment, to be
cared for by -'battery A. The pres
entation on behalf of the French
government was made 'by Brigadiers
General White in a brief and ring
ing patriotic speech, in which he
reminded Oregon : of some of the
services her sons had performed
in- war. . ' . ' - -
There were 13 separate commands
on the floor of the big Multnomah
county drill hail last night, and
keen interest was shown by the
well-filled galleries. It seemed fit
ting that the commanding officer at
the review should be Lieutenant
Colonel Hiram U. Welch, command
ing officer of the 186th infantry and
of the troops in Multnomah county,
for Colonel Welch served for nearly
20 years -dfi commanding officer of
battery A.

On the floor Thursday night, in
addition to battery A, were compan
ies B, E, G, H, headquarters service,
howitzer and medical detachment,
162d infantry; headquarters, second
battalion, 162d infantry; Gompany
A, 116th engineers, company B,

Captain Gay in Command. -
Battery A was commanded on the
floor by Captain James S. Gay Jr.
with Senior First Lielitenant Will
iam D. Jackson, Junior First Lieu

Lieutenant . K. D. Dufur. Battery A
was first organised in 1866 and will
celebrate its 67th anniversary early
In February with an annual ban
quet, in charge of Captain Lee
Clarke.
The choix de guerre was given
battery A for its three-day heroic
battle at Juvigne, France, where it
supported a French Moroccan divi
sion in attack, and by its terrific
and accurate fire so cleared the way
as to assure victory.

The production is beautiful in

the incidents. -
Scenically considered and in, rich

Mitzi sings and dances and fas
cinates and holds our attention, even
when she's off stage. We sit, pa
tiently awaiting her reappearance,
thrilled and glad just to see her
and hear her. "
A dozen clever folk stand out in
importance and for splendid work.
One is Fan Bourke, as an ex-cook
in Lady Billy's employ who is ex
ploited for her free verse when
Greenwich Village finds her. Lady
Billy's reunion with her is a gem
'in. comedy. Mark Smith, a delight
fur and charming character actor,
makes memorable the role of Billy's
secretary, given to correcting the
English of others. Mr. Smith's
pantomime is perfect.
Edward Ciannelli, as the zealous
swain of the ex-cook, provides much
amusement, and lovely Mitzi's hus

hero, a role he plays with distinc

Corporation to Have Capital
of $105,500,000.
CLEVELAND. O., Dec, 28. (By
the Associated Press.) Consolida
tion or the New York, Chicago and
St. Louis (Nickel Platef, the Chi
cago & State Line and Lake Erie &
Western, Fort Wayne, Cincinnati &
Louisville, and the Toledo, St. Louis
& Western (Clover Leaf), was ap
proved here today by the board o
directors of the five railroads, rep
resenting an authorized capitaliza
tion of $105,500,000 and operating
1695 miles of track. W. A.. Colston,
vice-president and general counsel
of the Nickel Plate, announced.
The directors of the roads in the
consolidation, sometimes referred to
as the "Van Swerengen lines," ap
proved and executed an agreement
for the unification of the five roads
into a, single corporation to be
known as "the New York, Chicago
& St. Louis Railroad company," and
directed submission of agreement
and articles of consolidation to a
meeting of stockholders of the sev
eral companies.
The consolidation "will make pos
sible economies in operation and
general administration, and will en
able the roads to compete more ef
fectively with larger systems serv
ing the same territory and give im
proved service to the public,'' Mr.
Colston said. -
The terms of capitalization pro
vide that the consolidated company
will be authorized initially to issue
$105,500,000 of capital stocks which
amount corresponds to the sum of
the now authorized capital stock of
the constituent companies. Of the
total to be authorized it is proposed
to - issue immediately $78,967,000,

Co-operative Council Condemns
Return of Comedian to Screen
on Account of Young.
LOS ANGELES. Cal., Dec. 2S. A
mass meeting called by the Los An
gels co-operative council for bet
ter films to discuss the return of
Roscoe Arbuckie, comedian, to the
screen, was thrown into uproar to
day when Evangelist Cuddy, head of
a mission, attempted to enter into
the debate on the side of Arbuckie.
Interrupted by cries of "sit down!"
"Throw him out!" and "fanatic!"
Cuddy accused the ministers of Los
Angeles of meddling in affairs out
side their province when they con
demned Will H. Hays, chief of the
film industry, for his action In re
moving the ban on Arbuckie. He
appealed to the churchmen to
"shake themselves from the mire,"
and, when his hecklers grew more
boisterous asked them to listen to
him "as a representative of Jesus
Christ."
Upon suggestion of Rev. R. P.
"Bob" Shuller, president of the min
isterial union, Cuddy finally was
granted three minutes in which to
present his views uninterrupted,
after which the meeting peacefully,
but almost unanimously adopted a
resolution protesting against the re
turn of Arbuckie as "tending to
lower the standard of right living
among, the young of our country."
"The wide publicity given the de
tails of the orgy in the St. Francis
hotel at San Francisco," declared
the resolution, "has made the name
of Arbuckie synonymous with de
bauchery and drunkenness."
