AMUSEMENTS camille tonight There is pleasing vein of comedy run ning through the play, relieving the sad pert ions. Georgia Harpar has made a most successful tour of the Pacific Coast and Canada, presenting Camille, and the comments of the press and public have been most flattering. She enjoys the dis tinction of having no superior in the pro duction of this great play. She also has a fad for fine costumes and has a host of the most elegant gowns ever seen on the American stage. The play is also mounted in cjstly style, new special set tings being used for each act, all in all making one of the most artistic produc tions ever taken on the road. Steward's opera house tonight GEORGIA HARPER CO. The Georgia Harper Co. presented for their offering for Friday nigiit, Camille To say that the play went well is un necessary for never did an actress hold an audience more closely than did Miss Harper. Her work especially in the diffi cult emotional scenes of 3d and 4t.i acts atone would stamp her as an artist of rare ability. Comparisons are said tu be odious, perhaps they are, certainly not to Georgia Harper in the "role of Camille As an actress, Miss Harper ranks with Florence Roherts, their work reminding one ot uie ouiai, b,h'. t.it I Harper's performance the roughness, sometimes apparent In Miss Robert s work, does not manifest itself. Jos. Detrick ' as Arm and Duval, that part which so many actors play, and so few play well, was excellent Ashland Tr. bune. . FOR MASOKS ONIY A newspaper report says that Ma-ions throughout Indiana look forward with in terest to the receipt of a trowel that has just started from the New York Masonic Temple on a trip that will probably take ten years to complete. With the trowel. the symbol to cement the -brotherly love among Masonic fraternity, is a large register in which data are to be inscribed by lodges, where the trowel is exhibited. Every lodge of Masons in the United Stales will receive the treasure. After the lo.ig trip is ended the trowel and its record will be placed in the grand lodge of the state of New York. WW PAPER AT ECHO E. H. Brown of The . Dalles, who has made arrangements to run a weekly paper in Echo, has arrived and is begin ning the erection of a building in which he will conduct the business..

"I have retired for good and shall pay no attention to challenges from anybody" said Jeffries. . LOOGING IN PROGRESS Reports from up the river are to the effect that logging is well under way. The logging road built up Rock Creek from Hilgard, a distance of eight miles, is in constant use and several acres ot ground are covered with logs ready for the high water in the spring. . Four miles below the ''Sheep ranch" a large amount of logs are being banked out from skid roads.

ETTniJlL BOTTLES FREEv If sOrage tanks for fuel oil cin be se cured in Albma, it is possible that the fifty engines in service on the 0. R. & N between Portland and Umatilla may be changed into oil burners soon anyway, as an experiment. However, there is no possibility "of the engines used on the Blue mountains being coverted into oil burners, is the opinion of railroad men, on account of the necessity of running with light fires down the mountiins, which wsuld ba de trimental to boilers w.tl oil burners. The CDst of changing a coal burner is about $1000. and it would require a year to c iange the fifty engines on the Uma-tilla-Portiand divisions, RECEIVES BLOODED ANIMALS C. R. Hibberd has just received three mammoth jacks from Nebraska and Miss ouri. One of these animals stands 1 1 hands high and weighs 1160 pounds.

The score stood 24 to 6. The first half was more ven than the second. When time wa called for the first half the score stood 6 to S in favor of the Commercial Club. The attendance was good and those present pronounced it one of the best games of the season. BASKET BALL Basket Ball enthusiasm has certainly taken hold of the people as shown by the way they enjoyed the game Wednesday evening. The High School team though plainly outclassed plr.yed a plucky losing game. 1 hey say that it would have been a different story if "Weary" Falk who for some unaccountable reason did not show up for the game. Had he been in, the score Would probably have ocen much nearer even, though the Club team would undoubtedly have won for they seldom missed a basket on an open throw. The militia team has been strengthened by several new player and they claim they will retrieve themselves, for the loss of their first game, next week (date not yet determined) when they will meet the Commercial Club team on their own floor.

( He is worth $75,000. Jeffries has saved up nearly the same amount Jim Corbett Is worth about $50,000. Tommy Ryan, Jimmy Britt, Sharkey and Teddy McQovem are worth something like $50,000. Very few other boxers have anything to show for their long careers in the ring. While the purses for prize fights seem enormous at first' sight, yet after the boxer pay hi manager, his attendants, traveling ex penses and other expenses too numerous to mention, he is lucky if he pulls out with ten per cent of the gross receipts.
