BIG SUCCESS
YOUNG PEOPLE ENTHUSIASTIC
ALLY RECEIVED BY LARGE
AUDIENCE.
FOR BENEFIT QF BAND
Play Will Probably be Pretented
Woodburn and Other Valley

Future.
His I ncle From Japan," is the
title of the Utile comedy put oil lit
Hie Slilvely hut Friday night by
Home of the Jiromllii-iit young people
nf thla clly, and tt crowded house
grilled the playeta. The play was
managed by Waldo Caulleld and given
ninler the direction of K. J. McKll
trick,. The Oregon Clly Hand, for
mIiokc In -in-Ill It waa given, furnished
the iniihlc dining the evening.
"Ills I'mlo From Japan," la lively
throughout, and keeps thu audience
In a roar of laughter. Charles Ilol
llnger, aa Captain Robert Racket, of
tho National Guard a lawyer when
lm has nothing to do, und a liar all
the time. Mr. Ilolilnger's acting waa
extremely clever and nil during the
play his acting waa highly appreciat
ed, (iaylord Godfrey as Obadlah Daw
son, "Ilia I'ncln From Japan," on
many occasions brought down the
limine by hla wll, and was well suit
ed for the part be took. Philip J.
Slnnott, who has -appeared before the
Oregon Clly public on many occa
aaliia, took the part of "Timothy Tol
man." his friend, who married for
money and la Sorry for It.' Mr. Sin
null's acting waa never seen to bet
ter advantage than on Friday night,
when he scored such a success. Harry
Gordon, characterizing "Mr. Dulroy,"
his father In-law, Jolly cove, tixik hla
part well, a did Waldo Cautlcld, who
played the part of "HobBon," a wait
er from tho Cafe Glorlana, who adds
lo tho cotifualon. Miss Florence Mc
Fnrland, aa Clarice, the captain's pret
ty wife, out for a lark and up to
'anything awful," showed that alio
had given her part careful and Intel
ligent siinly. Miss Knthryn Slnnott,
one of Oregon Clty'a popular young
ladles who at the last moment by re
quest, took the part of "Mrs. Tolman,"
a lady with a temper who finds her
Timothy a vexation of spirit, has ap
peared at other times before the Ore
gon City fooHlghta and always to the
pleasure of her audience. Clara Fields,
as 'Katy," a mlschevhma maid, did
Justice lo tho part given her, and her
clever acting was greeted with hearty
applause.
One of the fentures of tho evening
was the whistling solo of. Harold Swuf-
ford. Mr. Swnfford has already es
tablished a reputation as a whistler,
and on Friday night scored Btich a hit
that ho waa forced to respond to sev
eral encores.
"Ills Uncle From Japan." was ono
of the best homo talent plays ever
presented In this clly. and those tak
ing part ore receiving tho congratula
tions of their many friends, who had
the pleasure of witnessing It.
It Is probable that 'Ulia Uncle From
Japan" will be presented at Woodburn
and other towns along tho Southern
Pnclllc ut an early date, and If so,
ho play deserves good patronnge, as
It Is one of the best homo talent shows
that has ever been given in the city.
OREGON CITY TEAM WINS.
Hotly Contested Basket Ball Game at
St. Johns.
In an exciting basket ball game on
skates Wednesday night at St. Johns,
tho Oregon City basket ball team won
a game from tho St. John boys, the
score being 10 to 8. In the first half
Philip Slnnott was badly hurt, and
unable to piny the remainder of the
gume. Kendall mid Regh, of this
city, were tho star players of tho ev
ening. Tho team from this clly was
composed of Slnnott, Lewis, Regh,
ardner and Kendall. "Jinks" Moore,
of this city, took Slnnott's plnce In the

giuno to bo played In tho Rlvorbrlnk
rink, Saturday night, March 6. The
Oregon City boys nre establishing a
reputation for themselves as basket
ball players, und have won every gome
played so far.
"Roys do not leave the farm because
they are afraid of work, but because
they are made to feel that the higher
attainments of life ore reached only
through the professions. I think that
education la nt the bottom of the
whole question. Girls who tnko tho
domestic science course nt our state
colleges go back and revolutionize the
furm."

WORRY WEAKENS MIND
MRS. COLSON, AFTER CARING FOR
SICK HUSBAND, LOSES
HER MIND.
Sadie, wife of Dan Colson, of AVI1
lamette, was brought to Oregon City
on a stretcher Saturday evening and
taken to the court house, where she
was examined as to her sanity by Dr.
E. A. Sonimer and Judge Q. B. Dlmlck.
She was pronounced insane and taken
to Snlem on the evening train, where
she was committed to the asylum.
The cause Is a pitiful one. Mrs.
Colson's husband has been 111 for the
past 18 weeks, and by constant care
and loss of sleep the poor woman's
mind became unbalanced. It Is
thought by treatment at the asylum
she will rocover her mind. There are
three children In' tho family, the el
dest being 15 years of age.

ASKS FOR
FRANCHISE
SOUTHERN PACIFIC SEEKS RIGHT
OF WAY THROUGH MILWAU
KEE FOR CUT-OFF.
$2000 PER YEAR ASKED
Council of That City Want $2000 Per
Year for Ule of Streets and
Eight-Mile Speed
Limit.
A special meeting of the Milwaukee
City Coiiifcll was held Tuesday night
In llm city hail to consider the fran
chise asked by the Jk-averton &
Wlllaburg Railroad. George C. ilruwn
ell, of Oregon City, attorney for Mil
waukee, was present to adviso the city
(jlllcinls in regard to the legal ques
tions Involved.
The right of way begins at the south
boundary Hue of the city .about 100
feet north of the O. W. V. trestle
crossing, one of the outlets of Kellogg
lake. The track will skirt the bluff,
after crossing the Willamette river,
Just below Oswego, coming Into Mil
waukee on a per cent grade, cross
lug the O. W. P. track on an over
head crossing, 20 feet above, and
thence over the lake. Into the city
limits. Cuts from two to fourteen
feet will be made at various places
between the south line of the city to
the Scott property, and from thence
the grade will be level to WIHsburg.
The council proposes to grant a
franchise on the following termB: The
company to build a viaduct over the
Milwaukee Heights road 12 feet above
the street grade, make a nil over
Kellogg pond and provide a walk for
foot travel; all streets crossed to be
brought up to the grade of the rail
road track; company to pay the cost
of sewer and water mains underneath
Its right of way; speed of trains" lim
ited to eight miles an hour; freight
and passenger depot, either of alone
or brick or concrete, to be construct
ed, and a telegraph and Wells-Fargo
agency to be maintained; all through
trains to stop at Milwaukee; $2000
a yi'ar to be paid during the life o!
the franchise.
J. W. Morrow, tax and land agent
of the Southern Pacific expressed
himself as being satisfied with the
conditions Imposed with the excep
tion of the last two, which he claims
his company will never agree to. Con
siderable discussion took place, and
citizens present were Invited to state
their views. F. H. Lechler, O. Wis-
singer. Captain Shaw and others spoke
In favor of the franchise as It was
presented, and believed that the Coun
ell ought not to recede from Its stand
Mr. Morrow asked more time In which
to consider the matter, and It was
voted to meet again Friday night,
February 20, again to take up this
question.
Mayor Streib, having expressed him
self opposed to a franchise longer
than 50 years, It is doubtful If the
company will get a perpetual fran
chise as asked. Mr. Morrow expects
to acquire private right of way Im
mediately after his company has se
cured the franchise.

by Women.
The Woman's Club met at the

gave a talk on "The Forestry Situa
tion," and a general discussion fol
lowed. A resoltulon was made and
adopted by the club to interview the
Grocers' Association in regard to san
itary condition of food stuff, and IJ Is
probable that a committee from the
organization will meet the Association
at the next meeting.
Mrs. U'Ren served a luncheon to
her guests. One new member was
taken into the organization, and an
other name proposed fur membership.

out a writ of habeas corpus In the
County Court, and Judge Dimick has
set the hearing for Thursday at one
o'clock.
The charter of Estacada gives the
right to license saloons over to the
city. The men were tried and sen
tenced under the state law. Now the
point involved Is whether the Justice
Court has jurisdiction over the ques
tion, as to whether or not the provi
sion of the charter of that city ex
empts the sale of liquor from the local
option law and places it with the
City of Estacada, as does the Medford
charter, which was recently decided
by the Supreme Court. The Estacada
charter was passed by the legislature
after the local option law was adopt
ed. The question, Is of vital importance
to the people of Estacada and will be ,
carefully considered by the court.
