They contain store news of vital Interest to every render. (By Savoyard.) It was the very year that the fatal duel between Judge Terry and Sena tor Broderlck lent frenzy to Ameri can polltcs that California gave Mary Anderson' and Charles B. Hanford (who comes' to La Grande soon) to American art. AJter triumphs that might have palled the appetite for ap ulause of the Disraeli of "Vivian Grey," or Contarinl Fleming, Miss An derson, whose genius had not yet at talned the zenith of Its brilliant flight, went into retirement in another hem isohere and Is now a beloved wife, a proud mother, a noble woman, an or nament of a great profession, and an honur to her sex "Our Mary" always, Charles B. Hanford, at 48, Is In his prime, a sterling actor, an estimable gentleman, as admirable In private walk as he is eminent in professional life. Born in California May 5, 18G8 the boy Hanford was brought east some years later and was educated iu Washington, graduating from the high school In 1881. He was destined tor the bar, and studied to that end at college and in a law school, but man. Is helpless in the toils of fute, and bo it came that Hanford was drafted from the elucidations of the recondite principles of Coke or Little ton and set to interpretations of the exhaustless fancies and multitudinous philosophies of Shakespeare. Before that, however, he was secretary to Horace F. Page, long a leading mem ber of congress from California and a pillar of the movement to give General Grant a third nomination In 1880. In Washington young Hanford saw much of official and political life and for a time he was a clerk in one of the departments. It was not until 1882, at the age of 23, that Mr. Hanford entered upon hie professional career that has proved so successful and made him a favorite in every city and town of the Union. It was at New London, Conn., that he first appeared on the professional stage In the company of that excellent actor, William Stafford, then starring In Shakespearean plays. That season the young actor gave the promise of the excellence he later attained the bloom was redeemed by the fruit and the following season he Joined the company of Thomas W. Keene who did more than his fair share to bring the public taste to an appreciation of the classic and heroic drama, a task to which Hanford has succeeded, and In the discharge of which he has fully equaled and probably surpassed his master. His next engagement was with Robson and Crane, playing Aeg- eon In their never-to-be-forgot pro duction of the "Comedy of Errors." PETmOX FOR LIQUOR LICENSER To the Hon.
