TH E TIM ES A novelty in the musical com edy end of the theatrical business is so rare these days, that when one is hit upon and finds a wel come with playgoers, success is doubly sure. This fact explains as well as anything else can. prob ably, the remarkable run o f pat ronage Portland has accorded the musical shows presented by the popular Keating and Flood Musi cal Comedy Company at the | Lyric Theater the past eleven I weeks. This clever aggregation of players, gathered from all corners o f the United States, is without a doubt the best company of its kind playing at popular prices anywhere in the country. The productions are all blue chaseri and presented for laughing pur poses only, as can be attested by anyone who has seen any of their previous shows. For the coming week, commencing with Monday matinee. February 5, “ Jakey,” “ M ikey” and “ Ikey” will be the attraction and in the hands of this clever combination o f singers, j dancers and performers, it will he a production not only from an ar tistic standpoint, but from a musi cal and scenic effort that indeed should not be missed. There will be the usual two performances nightly and a matinee daily. ft STYLISH ENGLISH HALF TIMBER, East 33 Design 953, by Glenn L. Saxton, Architect, Minneapolis. M inn .

Tin horn patriots reviled relig ion, denounced American insti tutions, anthematised government, fulminated against the social or der, made jest of a passing fun- cendiary speech. Other and better influences for reform are working in this coun try. Portland should not long be the rendezvous of an incen- eral, and did many other un graceful thing. There is a difference between free speech and free riot. There is a difference between h o n e :f agitation and red-mouthed an archy. There shonld be patience with all who have complaints to make o f conditions that may be unfair. There is an abundance o f inequi ties and injustices in the social and economic structure. But th£ way to reform them is by the ballot, and through orderly pro cesses. The leadership in any reform should not be by n e’er-do wel gentry who never worked anil never will, and whose prize ac tivity is inflammatory and in diary propaganda. Eminent gen tlemen who disturb the peace with red-mouthed assaults on everything respectable in the country should be considered dis orderly when they are disorderly, and disposed of as such. The authorities of Portland should see that this town is not made a bedlam of buffonery and blackguardism.—Oregon Journal. COR. E A ST YAM HILL 63 STRIKERS RIOT AND HURL ICE AND BIG BOTTLES Lawrence, Mass.— Serious riot ing occurred January 29, when a crowd of strikers attempted to prevent operatives from entering the various textile mills to re sume work. In many cases the strikers were successful, and the mills that re-opened were able to operate only on a greatly re duced scale. Several persons were seriously injured. The rioters held up some 200 or more electric cars, headed in the direction of the mills, forced idle passengers to leave the cars and then assaulted them in the be ILIN B ER G E R E In “ The Chocolate Soldier” at Ilcilig Theater, February 4-5-G-7. lief that they were strikebreakers.
