METROPOLITAN THEATER "All Mixed."'
Death of Robert M. Stowelim Rob
ert M. Stowcll, -who has been suffering
from tuberculosis of the digestive morgans
for over a year, died at the residence of
his father-in-law, W. T. Bodley, 1M Seven
teenth street, North, at 9 o'clock yesterday
morning. After graduating from the High
School he was employed for some time
as shipping clerk by M. Seller & Co.
Something over a year ago he was seized
by a disease -which baffled the skill of
the physicians, and finally he submitted to
an operation, through which it was
learned that his disease was an unusual
iorm of tuberculosis, his luncs being per
fectly sound, and only his digestive and
absorptive organs being affected. He
has been constantly falling since his ill
ness began, but kept up nls courage and
cheerfulness, even when it became evident
that there was no hope of recovery. His
changed condition gave warning of his ap
proaching end. and his parents, who have
beet at Sitka for some time, were notified,
and his mother came down and was with
him when he died. He left a wife, to
whom he was married not long before the
beginning of his sickness.
Seeking a. Compromise. The payment
of the Judgment secured by Brauer against
the city for pay witheld from firemen, has
caused applications to be made for settle
ment of two other claims advanced by
firemen against the city, one of which Is
for $17,500, and the otner for $29,000. The
circumstances connected with these
claims are not exactly similar nor so fa
vorable for the firemen as thoEe in the
Brauer case, and It Is said that the city
has a good chance for winning in both
cases. The city did win In one of these
cases, but the Supreme Court sent it back
to the lower court to be tried over again
in some other way. The claimants would
be pleased to arrive at a satisfactory com
promise with the city, and Just before
Election Is a good time for making ar
rangements of this kind, and considerable
pressure is being brought to bear to have
such a compromise brought about. Some
city qfflcials are quite anxious to arrange
for a compromise, but others oppose it,
and it is uncertain whether the Council
can be induced to agree to any compro
mise. Boom in the Rattan Market. The re
ceipt of a small quantity of Tattan by the
Street-Cleaning Department has enabled
the street-sweeping machines to be put In
order for a time, and produced a very
gratifying change in the appearance of
the paved streets. The steel wire ordered
from the East for filling street brooms
when rattan could not be procured, has
been sidetracked and lost sight of on the
way. A Chinese firm In San Francisco,
which imports rattan, is expecting a ship
load before long, so great is the demand
for this article from the large number of
towns In the "Union where street-sweeping
machines aro used. A few days ago they
received a small shipment and divided it
around among their numerous customers,
Portland receiving enough to last about a
month. The general use of rattan for
street-sweeping In this country has cre
ated a boom in the rattan markets of the
Orient, and furnished employment for a
large number of Asiatics.
Scarcity of Chinese Laborers. Can
nerymen all along the Coast are having
difficulty In securing Chinese laborers.
Most of them here and on the Sound have
the principal men, such as those who cut
the tin and solder cans, secured, but find
it difficult to get a sufficient number for
other purposes. Seld Back, who has just
returned from a visit to San Francisco.
Bays the same condition of affairs prevails
there. Chinese laborers are in demand at
$1 25 per day. Alaska cannerymen have
only about 70 per cent of the number of
Chinese they need, and they pay all an
advance of $40, and some secure prac
tically all their pay in advance. Many
of the Chinese engage for the season's
work at from $200 to $270 net, work 11
hours per day, and receive 15 cents per
hour for extra time, so they never com
plain if they have to work overtime; in
fact, the more hours they have to work
the better they are pleased.
For Those Interested. It is but
proper to announce that the advertise
ments now appearing in the magazines
stating that the Northern Pacific's Won
derland, 1900, was ready, were necessarily
prepared from six to eight weeks ago, and
when we thought the publication would be
ready at about this time. Unfortunatelj
unforeseen difficulties have delayed th
printers, and we will not be able to begin
distribution of these books before April L
All requests, accompanied by 6 cents in
stamps, will be carefully attended to and
a copy of Wonderland, 1900. mailed to each
person asking for it as soon as possible.
Requests for Wonderland 1900 should be
sent to Charles S. Fee, general passenger
agent, Northern Pacific Railway, St. Paul,
Minn.
Millman Injured. George Smith, an
employee of the Eastern Lumber Com
pany, was badly bruised yesterday after
noon while working in the mill. Togeth
er with two other men, he was engaged
In turning a cant timber, when the car
riage started and took him with it, throw
ing him among the old lumber. It was
thought at first that he was seriously in
jured, but on a careful examination by
Dr Jefferds, the company physician, it
was found that there were no bones
broken, and that the injuries were simply
a few painful bruises on the lower limbs.
He was then taken to his home In an am
bulance, where he will have to remain
for a week or so.
Class Work and Basket-Bali At the
T. M. C. A. gymnasium tonight, after the
regular class work, the Vancouver Ath
letic Club basket-ball team will play the
Business Men's team, and an exciting

of a series of games between these teams,
the second to be played at Vancouver.
The regular class work of the evening
class will not be put off, but will begin
15 minutes earlier, and close 15 minutes
sooner than usual. This will enable all
gymnasium men to witness the game.

season may be considered as fairly com
menced, as over 100 dozen of these crus

some point on the Columbia yesterday.
They are of medium size, but sell readily
for 25 cents a dozen. At this price they
will never become an article of common
diet, as the cost of the necessary wine
and spices for cooking them can only be
stood by those who have well-filled pock

HOLBEIN PHOTOGRAPHS.
Xovr on Exhibition in the Portland
Library.
A portion of the Holbein photographs
owned by the Portland Art Association
are this week on exhibition at the Library.
The most important works of Holbein
are noted in the following list, accom
panied by notes which it is hoped will be
helpful to all inclined to study the works
of this great German master:
Portrait of Hans Holbein the Younger,
born in Augsburg, 1497; died In England,
1543; his art career developed in Basle,
and he retained his citizenship there, even
after many years' residence In England
and a court position under Henry VIII.
Portrait of Boniface Amerbach, a
wealthy, cultivated and noble-minded
young lawyer of Basle; Holbein's most
Intimate friend of his own use, and his ap
preciative patron. To Amerbach, Basle
owes the foundation of its art museum
and the greatest treasures contained
therein, namely, a priceless collection of
Holbein's works. Holbein and Amerbach
were both under 25 when this beautiful
portrait was painted.
Erasmus, of Rotterdam, the greatest
"humanist" of Europe at this period. This
learned man was the friend and helper
and delightful companion of our young
painter. Wje have already heard of Eras
mus as the friend, companion and eulo
gist of Durer.
Froben, or Frobenlus, of Basle, a con
temporary of Koburger of Nuremberg; the
most scholarly printer of Europe. Eras
mus of Rotterdam located himself in Basle
because he wished Froben to publish his
books. The young Holbein designed title
pages and decorative alphabets for Froben,
and was doubtless on Intimate terms with
him.
Portrait of Sir Thomas More, an inti
mate friend and correspondent of Eras
mus. One of the earliest portraits of
Erasmus painted by Holbein was sent to
Sir Thomas More with a letter, In which
Erasmus eulogized the young artist. As
sociation with Erasmus seems to have
turned Holbein's attention to England,
and as he could not support his family
In Baslo by brush and pencil combined,
ho started for England, armed with a let
ter of Introduction from Erasmus to More.
The central picture on the More panel
represents Sir Thomas More and his
family; it is surrounded by studies of
the various individuals In the group. Hol
bein's first three years In England were
spent In the family of Sir Thomas More,
and he must have proved a valuable addi
tion to this learned and charming house
hold, or he would not so long have been
retained there on such terms of Intimacy
On the other hand, Holbein's long resi
dence indicates his sympathy with the
culture, refinement and breadth of view
that characterized the More family.
The Meyer Madonna, Holbein's great
est composition, contains portraits of Ja
cob Meyer, Burgomelster of Basle, and his
family. Portrait s'tudles of the Meyer
family are arranged on the same screen
with the Madonna: these should be com
pared in the moat minute way with the
finished picture.
The original of the Meyer Madonna la
in Darmstadt, a splendid copy Gong sup
posed to be the original). Is In Dresden.
Study comparatively every detail of the
Darmstadt and Dresden Madonna, espe
cially the expression of the Madonna and
child.
Portraits of George Glcze (with vase of
carnations at his side).
Portrait of Morett, goldsmith of Henry
VIII.
Portrait of the Duchess of Milan, whom
Henry VIII would have been glad to wed.
The Wlndpor collection of 89 portrait
studies of the noted men and women of
Henry vni's period forms one of Eng
land's greatest art treasures.
The Braun photographs of these draw
ings are superb reproductions.

AT THE PLAY HOUSES
ROTABLE rilODUCTIOX OP "TUB
DANCING GIRL."
Jeffrles-SIiarlcey Flsht Reproduced
at the aiarqnam "AU Mixed."
at the Metropolitan.
The farewell week of tho Frawley play
ers Is proving a star one In business, in
quality of the powerful plays produced,
and the constancy of the admiring throng
which nightly crowds Cordray's house.
Last night the second bill of the week
was offered, and It Is not too much to
say that "The Dancing Girl" one of
Henry Arthur Jones' strongest stage
stories was given as complete a repre
sentation as anything local theater-goers
could wish for. It Is not in every play
in the immense repertoire Mr. Frawley
gives that his best people Reynolds,
Wakeman, Amory, Van Buren, et a!. are
happily cast, but the ensemble, after all,
presents an artistic and satisfying effect.
It Is a passing wonder that Mr. Fraw
ley's men and women pas3 so qulcKly
from racy farce like "In Paradise" to
the extreme demands of the powerful
characterizations in "The Dancing Girl."
It proves the players' worth.
Harrington Reynolds, to those who have
seen him filling various exacting roles
during the past two weeks, comes In early
for attention In the drama seen last
night. First, he was seen as the accom
plished villain pursuing virtue. Last night
he was transformed into a devout, relig
iously taciturn Quaker minister, David
Ives. His work In this role was a revela
tion. It showed ho was able to lend him
self to the demands of a part naturally
out of his line. He may have been a
little robust in the emotional phases, but
he dispelled any doubts that may have
lingered by his scene with his daughter,
Drusllla Ives (Miss Wakeman).
That curse scene set the Cordray audi
ence on edge in the third act. No previ
ous sumptuous stage setting of the pres
ent engagement exceeded in brilliancy
"the last feast." The audience was
strangely moved. Even Miss Wakeman'a
emotional display added to the general ac
claim. It is a great scene as created by
the originals. The Frawley players rose
to the occasion. Miss Wakeman scored
her first distinct success. It la said It was
the first time she had performed the part.
If so, she ought to go on performing It,
even though spectators accuse her of too
much coldness in her love scenes.
There were five curtains at the end ot
act 3. Mr. Frawley, as the Duke of
Gulsebury; Miss Van Buren, as Sibyl
Crake; Mr. Reynolds, as David Ives, and
Miss Wakeman, as Drusllla, Ives, tho
"dancing girl," shared In four of the
calls, and Keith Wakeman alone in thft
last.
The cast is a long one. Frank Mathleu
made a good impression as John Chris
tlson, the country lover, In the second
act Francis Byrne as Reginald Sllngsby
capitally served the faint comedy element
in the piece. Phosa McAllister had a con
genial short part in Lady Bawtry; Cor
lnne Parker had Mrs. Leddra; Pearl Lan
ders had Faith Ives, a sweet, retiring
Quaker maid; Marion Barney, Sister Beat
rice, and Christine Hill, Mrs. Christlsan.
Mr. Amory had to be content with the
infelicitous role of a fashionable, stiff
necked butler. There were many more.
This will be the last night of this power
ful drama. Tomorrow night and until
and including the Saturday matinee, "The
Charity Ball" will be the bill. It Is a play
which always draws. Saturday night In
response to general request, "Trilby" will
be given. At the Saturday matinee silver
souvenirs will be distributed.
REALISTIC PICTURES.
Jeffries-Sharkey PJgrht Fought Over
at the Marqnam.
One of tho most interesting entertain
ments, both from a scientific and athletic
standpoint, was given In the Jeffrles
Sharkey fight pictures, at the Marquam
Grand Theater, last night. The pictures
are certainly a marvelous exposition o!
modern photography. All the movements
of the principals in the ring are given very
clearly, and there is an entire absence of
the flickering that la so trying to the eyes.
The only flaws that can be at all .notice
able are, first, the absence of the critical
point In the last round, the 25th, which Is
practically the decisive period of the fight,
when Jeffries' glove came off and Sharkey
Is very wobbly; and second, the slight
waving motion of the pictures on the can
vas. Other than that, the reproduction
is nearly lifelike. There was a large
crowd present last night, and the interest
in the physical encounter pictures was
aroused from the first picture flashed on
the canvas. The two preliminary series of
pictures represented the modern gladia
tors entering the ring, accompanied by
their retinue of followers. The Introduc
tion of Referee Slier and the club an
nouncer and other notables, the explana
tion of the rules of the contest to tho au
dience and other minor details. The sec
ond series shows the gladiators stripped
for action, receiving the finishing touches,
donning the gloves and receiving Instruc
tions from the referee. Then the fight It
self Is shown by rounds, also the work
of tho seconds during the one-minute rest.
The audience also has a respite for a
short period between rounds, when tho
eyes are rested from the strain of clcso
observation and tho attention diverted by
timely suggestions of points of Interest to
be looked for In the succeeding rounds.
Not the least Interesting feature of the
pictures Is the action of the crowd of spec
tators as shown on the canvas. Animated
discussions and comparing of notes are
clearly depicted, while anxious Instructions
from the fighters' corners by their train
ers are plainly discernible.
To detail the fight features would be
ancient history. Enough was shown, how
ever, clearly to demonstrate the fact that
the decision In favor of Jeffries was fair.
He plainly demonstrated his superiority in
the first eight rounds, then, for reasons
best known to himself, prolonged the bat
tle to the limit. The sailor was apparent
ly very weak and groggy In the last two
or three rounds. Sharkey's fierce rushes,
flail-like aimless blows and vicious work
In the clinches were shown plainly. Jef
fries, on the other hand, seemed always
to have complete control of himself and
the contest, and the question naturally
arises after seeing tho pictures why his
magnificent physique and tremendous
strength did not prove more effective
against his lighter opponent.
Tonight and tomorrow night opportuni
ties for again seeing this Interesting ex
position of modern science will be given.
ANOTHER LARGE AUDIENCE.
"All Mixed" Acratn Plennes Blsr Crowd
nt Metropolitan.
Another large and enthusiastic audience
greeted the Cooper-Methersole-Abbott
Stock Company, at the Metropolitan The
ater, last night. In the laughable farce
comedy, "All Mixed." The same dash,
spirit, fun, mirth and melody, that char
acterized the initial performance, was
In evidence last night, and the result
was the same the audience was enthu
siastic. Pretty Georgle Cooper received
an ovation In her delightful rendition of
her two songs: "Honey, I've Waited Long
for You." and "The Hoodoo-doo Man,"
and Miss Laura Adams' beautiful voice
In "The Ship That Carries You Home"
and "Bird Notes." touched a respors ve
chord In every heart present. Without
speaking disparagingly of other members
of the company, it is only just to say that
In farce-comedy roles, In fact. In any
roles where beauty and brightness Is de

truest sense of the word, and her con
cept'on of these parts Is almost perfect.

LACK OF ETIQUETTE.
Mr. StrovrbrldKe'a Retirement "Was
Not Good Form.
The regular meeting of the School Board,
Monday evening, to receive the returns of
the school election, allow the newly elect
ed Director to qualify and take his seat
and Inaugurate tho new chairman of tho
Board, was not conducted In accordance
with traditional etiquette, owing to tho
absent-mindedness cf the retiring chair
man, Mr. Strowbrldga. The returns hav
ing been canvassid and D. P. Thompson
having been declared fiuly elected, and be
ing present, the oath of office was ad
ministered to him and Mr. Warren sur
rei dered his seat h m. At th's Juncture
etiquette required Mr. Strowbrldge to va
cate the chair and intrcduce Mr. Warren
as his successor. He however, forgot to
dc this, and, without any motion being
made, pronounced the meeting adjourned.
Mr. Thompson remarked that the Board
t as not legally adjourned, as Mr. Strow
brldge had ceased to be a Director beforo
he pronounced it adjourned. Mr. Warren
was invited to take the chair, which he
ail as soon as Mr. Strowbrldge vacated
it, and made a brief speech, stating that
the voice of the retiring chairman would
bo much missed by everybody at the Boaro.
meetings.
Mr. Strowbrldge remarked that he had
been strictly honest in his dealings with
school matters ever s'nee he had been a
member of the Board. He has made a
pledge to- this effect and he had kept h!s
promise.
Mr. Thompson said he had been ac
quainted with the members of the Board
for some 15 years, and had never known
of any dishonesty In the Board during
that time, and he was of opinion that tho
reputation of the Board would be main
tained. Mr. Thompson also took occasion
at the time specifically to deny state
ments which had been put In circulation
during the campaign to the effect that
he had declared his Intention to displace
certain teachers, and stated that he had
no Intention of displacing any competent
teacher.
For some reason. Chairman Strowbrldge
has not signed the minutes of any meet
ing of the Board held since he was chair
man. One of the Directors says It is un
derstood that he now proposes, at lite
leisure, to go carefully over the minutes
of all the meetings at which he pre
sided, and to s gn all wnich he finds cor
rect. It Is to be hoped that his memory
may serve 'ilm faithfully In this matter.

We Are After
is the made-to-measure man the
man who has been going to the
merchant tailor and paying him
big money under the mistaken
idea that he could not be fitted
with ready-made clothes.
We carry superb suits and
overcoats, made by

Hart, Schaffner & Marx and
The Stein-BIoch Co.
Whose label on a garment is a
synonym for perfect style, elegant
finish and extreme durability. We
guarantee every garment of these
makes that we sell, and the man
ufacturers are back of us. Now
gentlemen, you who are finicky
about your clothes, come in and
let us match your latest made-to-measure
suit with one bearing
these labels and costing half as
much.
