turea Are Excel
lent Despite the fact that the effort waa
an ambitious one and one In which
older persona have failed, the gradua
ting class of the Oregon City High
School Thursday night presented moat
acceptably at the Shlvely Opera House
Sherldan'a masterpiece, "The Kivala."
The play was preaented ur.der the di
rection of Mra. Pearl Cartlldge, and
Ita success was due in a large meas
ure to her thorough training of the
members of the cast. There waa noi
a bitch In the performance, and every
on of the pupil participating de
serves special mention.
Long before the beginning of the
first act, the opera house waa crowded
with the relatives and friend of the
pupils taking part In the play. The
humor In the comedy waa well pre
aented, and the audience waa kept
laughing from the beginning until the
curtain dropped on the last-act.
Frank Clark, as Aorea, waa Just as
funny aa he was expected to be, and
a little more. He put much life Into
the part and read hla Unea with a
thorough appreciation of the humor
they com pa used. .Mlaa Besa Warner,
aa Mra. Malapmp, waa excellent, and
the ease with which she used the high
sounding words In the wrong places,
demonstrated her remarkable hlstrl-
onlo ability. Thornton Howard, aa
Captain Absolute, played hla part well,
and Ethel Kidder, aa Lydla. waa Just
the romantic young woman ahe ahould
have been. Mstlge j Brlghtblll waa
fin aa Lucy, and Both well Avlaon In
terpreted aplendldly the character of
8lr Anthony Absolute. But it iBn't
fair to single anyone out for apeclal
mention. All did well, much better, In
fact than their friends had expected-
A feature of the entertainment was
the- altiKlng of the Senior Olrla' Quar
tette, composed of Fay Batdorf, Maud
Park, MargarU McCulloch and Ethel

ber of the class, were enthuslaatlcally
applauded. The aong Waa given by

In finding them. ;
T. W. Clark, of thla city, noticed the
atranger Bitting on the stairway aa
he returned to hla home Wedneaday
evening. The next morning when Mi.
Clark descended the atepa he again
encountered the man, who waa crawl

covered with mud, but a broad amlle
illumed hla face. The strangers hands
were filled with soiled papera. He
explained to Mr. Clark that he had
ml used the papera upon reaching his
hotel An Portland, and, at first thought
some one had stolen them. Then It
occurred to him that he had removed

way, and possibly the papera bad
dropped from hla pocket then. He
hurried to the station at First and
Alder, but waa told that the last car
for the night had started for Oregon

papers represented a amall fortune
anyway, the man worried until he al
most became a hervoua wreck. He
could not aleep, and houra before the
first train rtarted for thia city be be
