DEALERS REFUSE
TO INVEST IN WOOL
Dealers are holding aloft from the
wool market. The small stocks ot
wool, shorn from mutton sheep re
cently at Pacific Northwest points,
have been piled up in Portland ware
houses. Dealers purchased some ot
these stocks up to 20c a pound for
Willamette Valley offerings, but the
general trade in not inclined to bid
above IS to 20 a pound for select
stock.
The trade is helpless at this time.
It cannot pay more for wool than
Eastern buyers are willing to bid;
therefore, until the latter change their
views, the situation is not likely to
show much activity.
In the East, pressure of the big
buyers has been so severe that hold
ers have," at last, been forced to ac
cept a compromise, or lower value,
than they have been asking. Quite
a bit of activity has been shown at
the figures, and sales in the East are
now the best for many years at this
period.
Prevailing Oregon City prices are as
follows:
HIDES (Buying) Green salted, 7c
to 8c; "sheep pelts 75c to $1.50 each.

The Farmer's Daughter at Shively's
Opera House February 26.
This beautiful Operatic Cantata will
be rendered at Shively's Opera House
next Wednesday evening, February
26, under the auspices of the Presby
terian Church choir. The music, un
der the direction of Mrs. Leon Des
Larzes, leader of the . choir, will be
very fine. The various characters
have been training for some time,
and the solos, duets and choruses
are at this time in such a state of per-
j fection that the public will be given
a rare treat such as Oregon City has
not had the opportunity to hear for
many a day. Good music, combine 1
with fun and comedy go to make this
little playlet, and every one can feel
perfectly assured of getting their
money's worth.
Following is the cast of characters:
Phyllis, the Farmer s Daughter .
" Kathleen Harrison
Margaret, the Adopted Daughter. .
Mrs. W. C. Green
Douglass, a Young Farmer
Harold Swafford
Farmer Meadows . . . Arden Hickman
Chapleigh, a Dandy from the City
Hugh Kennedy
Also semi-choruses of women and
men and full choruses of villagers.
Nero and His Voice.
The Emperor Nero took remarkable
care of his voice. At night Nero lay
(iu his back, with a thin plate of lead
on his storuaeli. He abstained from
fruits and all dishes which could hurt
his voice. In order not to damage the
purity of its sound he censed haran
guing the soldiers and the. senate. He
attached to his. service an officer spe
cially deputed to take care of his voice.
He talked only iu the presence of this
singular official, who warned him when
he spoke too loudly or forced his voice,
and if the emperor, carried away by
some sudden tit of passion, did not lis
ten to his remonstrances it was his
duty to stop his mouth with a napkin.

MISCHA ELM AN.
Mischa Elman, the young Russian
violinist whose ravishing beauty cf
tone and brilliant technic, united with
rare personal magnetism, has taken
the world by storm during the past
two years, will be heard in Portland
Wednesday, February 26, playing at
the Heilig, 11th and Morrison, under
the management of Lois Steers-Wynn
Coman. Elman is now given first
place among all the violinists of the
world by leading critics, who marvel
at the power of his genius, shown in
the profound insight into the inner
meaning of the great masterpieces of
music, which he interprets with re
vealing realism .and electrofying fer
vor. He has the most delicate sense
of poetic values, which enables him
to produce the most enchanting ef
fects. The San Francisco Call" of
February 10th says:
"The audience filled the big hall. It
was a magnificent testimony to gen
ius, and it liked the right things, bent
forward while the youth spun his
dreams, and drank in the Elman tone
which is unique in the music world
today. In proportions an art express
j es itself in beauty and power, it is
. capable of translation. The ordin
! ary jargon of criticism is abashed.
He transmutes a tone sense into real-
iy his means are ot no importance
to the hearer, as one thinks little of
the science manifested in a sunbeam.
; The sheer beauty of the music car-
. ries the hearer into a Rhapsody of
. thought, from which, when the num
' ber is over, it is with difficulty that
' one recovers equilibrium again."

HOYT'S "A WHITE FLAG"
Noted Farce with Music to be Seen
at the Baker This Week.
The creations of Charles H. Hoyt
occupy a unique position in the theat
rical world. They are not musical
comedies and they are not burlesques,
but hold a middle course between the
two, and can be played without a
note of music if so desired, and yet
lend themselves cordially to the in
terpolation of any number of lively
songs and choruses. This week com
mencing Sunday afternoon The Baker
players will be seen in his "A Milk
White Flag", by many considered the
most laughable of all his noted suc
cesses. It has not been produced hens
in several years, and should be a wel
come change from the serious and
heavy dramas which patrons of this
popular stock company receive as a
steady diet. It is a travesty on the
State Militia organizations and the
scene takes place in a small town in
which two of these companies exisv
principally for the social honors and
club room privileges of their mem
bers. The prncipal theme circles
around a grand "Military" funeral
planned by one of them in opposi
tion to the other, the mourning of the
bunco corpse, the terrible experiences
of the live corpse, the antics of the
widow (?) with the other characters
including the lone privates, the ma
jestic Colonel, and the host of other
"officers", the poor little orphan, un
dertaker and many other pertinent to
the plot. Several lively songs and
choruses will be introduced which
will be a distinct novelty in them
selves. The usual Baker Matinees
will be given Sunday, Wednesday and
Saturday, as well as he popular Bar
gain night Monday.

HONORED BY FRIENDS
Miss Hazel Francis was the recip

ing when Mrs. Mrs. Roy Armstrong,
assisted by Miss Vada Elliott, enter
tained a numoer of the Younger Set
at a pretty "rush." The evening was
spent in a rather informal manner
at five hundred. There was fine mus
ic. Delicious refreshments were serv
ed by the hostesses. Many beautiful
articles were received by Miss Fran
cis. Those present were: MJrs. Charles
Bollinger, Mrs. R. D. Armstrong, Mrs.
Myron Myers, of Portland; Mrs. Jo
seph Garber, of Portland, and Misses
Clara Deute, Mary Mitchell, Nell Cau

WALKING.
I have just read two human docn
ments of value.
One Is by Frederic Harrises, the au
thor, aged eighty-one. and the other by
Lord Strathniore, ninety-two years of
age.
These young old men, both active ana
hearty, give some golden rules con
cerning benlth. and both lay especial
emphasis on the benefits of walking nn
an exercise.
Harrison says every one should walk
at the least two hours each day.
Why walk?
Well, in the first place, walking raises
the temperature of the body. It Is like
putting fuel in the furnace and open
ing tie draft. There's something doing
Linside. Waste is being carried off.
Kou breathe deeply.
And that is important. Most persons
use only half their lungs, ordinarily,
for breathing purposes. Deep breathing
puts large quantities ot oxygen into the
blood. Muscle 'and nerve get their vi
tality from the blood. Besides, in deep
breathiug waste Is carried off by ex
halation And there's the skin.
Millions of pores are opened up by
the perspiration, and waste material
Is eliminated.
And digestion:
Walking helps that important func
tion The exercis puts an edge ou ap
petite. And good digestion waits on
appetite.
Moreover
Here is tin Important item seldom
considered, but of great importance:
The doctors will tell you about the dia
phnicui. The diaphragm is n sort of
movable stage floor between the chest
and ttie abdomen. It is raised or low
ered by the contraction and swelling of
the lungs.
Now:
When the lungs are deeply filled by
walking the diaphragm goes down and
presses upon the liver and stomach and
spleen. It Is like n massage of these
organs and keeps them in good order
The best way to stir up your liver is
to stir your legs
And. -moreover
Nothing is here said of the mental
benefits of walking, the exhilaration of
the open air. the joy of. well Inlirli-titwl
movement.
Habituate your legs.
