IS A GOOD ENTERTAINER PLEASING MONOLOGUE BT JIM HAM XEWXS. He Gives an Entertainment for the Benefit of Democratic County Committee. James Hamilton Lewis, of Seattle, gave a very pleasing monologue before a packed and appreciative house at A. O. U. W. Hall, last evening. Although the en tertainment was somewhat marred by al lusions to politics of rather a partisan character, they were not frequent nor protracted enough to give offense to any of his hearers, and when the evening closed with a clever Imitation of Daniel "Webster on the floor of the Senate the audience surged out through the doors voicing the general verdict: It was a good show." With the exception of a colored shirt, Mr. lewis make-up was faultless. A long Prince Albert coat, deeply creased trousers. Immaculate spats, and a fluffy necktie, set off to excellent advantage the graceful lines of his person, while bis whiskers, newly harbored and bristling with energy, interwoven Into ihe'tout en semble a very delightful vein of comedy. y&r. Lewis has a flute-like voice, of oak timber, which enables him to load It very heavily at times without danger of breaking. He is a master of dialect, hav ing been xalsed In tha Sunny South, and during the evening told a numbec of negro stories with a fine appreciation of their humor which became Infectious. An an ecdote of low Ih li dialect, artistically tola, gave evidence" of the extent of the entertainer's studies abroad, and the masterly way In which he read several newspaper extracts and passages from history show that his reading of current literature has "been wide and various. The entertainment was given for the benefit of the Democratic County Committee, whose need of funds has been crying during the present campaign, but although the house was well filled, the number of deadheads was such that It was unfortunately not a flnjBBclal success. The stage was set wllh olegaat simplicity, the scenery consisting ot George Chamberlain, R. D. Inman, Charles K. Henry, General H. B. Comp ear, and A P. Nelson. A pitcher of water and a glass placed by mistake on a small table near the footlights at first created the Impression that the entertain ment was a Prohibition meeting, but Mr. Lewis, with rare tact, quickly removed these from sight, and thereby prevented a stampede. It seemed a simple thing to do, but It won bis audience, and from that time forward not a person left the hall. The entertainment began with an Imi tation of a politician thanking his fellow cltizens for a complimentary vote he had received at the Kansas City convention. "The guns of the press have been turned on my whiskers," said Mr. Lewis, grace fully, chucking himself under the chin with a sang frcrfd "which would have Jaded Prank Daniels to a light bottle green. The audience, of course, laughed. Olr. Lewis bowed, and then, perceiving that the unfortunate mistake of placing a "water pitcher on the table in a hall tilled, with many Democrats was at the point of clearing the hall expeditiously, lie stooped with a Chesterfieldlan gesture, caught "up both pitcher and glass with a deft motion, that told of long practice In the art of Jugglery, and slipped them out of sight beneath the table. The audi ence burst into tumultuous cheers, while those who had sought to escape slunk shamefacedly back into their chairs. The next sketch was a funny imita tion of Wlllfcm J. Bryan denouncing the trusts. With that pleading and con vincing eloquence which has so often caused the Platte to tremble underneath Its banks to hear the replication of the sounds made In its concave shores, Mr. Lewis told -how the combined capital of the trusts is seven-n-n blllion-n dollar-rs, while the total value of all the manu factures of the United States Is 1S90 was only six-x-x-x billlon-n-n-n ditto. A few" Democrats in the house objected to this as an arsmncnt in favor of Republican prosperity, but the speaker paused not. He was in .full cry after the trusts, and was a whole pack la himself. "Oh, mother," he cried; ""Oh, mother, with your little babe swinging in your arms, you know not that the bread In Its mouth must be bought of the flour trust; that the shoes on its little feet must be bought of the shoe trust; that when, in that sad hour when cruel death shall tear that babe from your bosom, the tiny shroud in which 30 u wrap Its cold form must be bought of the wool trust; that the casket into which you press Its re sistless Umbs must be bought of the coffin trust, and that the slab which you rear to its sainted memory must be bought of the monument trust," Mr. Lewis omitted to state that the ice employed to preserve the child during the early post mortem stages must be purchased of the ice trust, but the overslrht was probably unintentional. Observing that bitter tears- were welling up in the eyes of the listeners whose feel ings he had wrought up by his life-like picture of death, the monologist passed from sravo to gay, and, blushing diffi dently in compliment to the ladies pres ent, he said with maidenly modesty that he even had heard th there was a cor set trust, although he did not see how corsets oould but be opposed to expan- "Wbea a rippling tldct- ot epplauEo- IS r ' - Last Day of Sale of BLACK SILKS From the Auction Sale of ' The Clifton Silk Mills James McCreery & Co., Agents Sale of Black Dress Goods Fine English Mohair BLACK 1 AA PIEROLAS, at...pLOy Regular price, $2 and 2.25 Today only. swelled up from the audience at this sally, Mr. Lewis, with a striking imita tion of the manner of 'William H. "West, observed: ''I thank you, my friends, for your ap plause, but let me assure, you' that, unless your sentiments constrain you to indulge! in it; vou need, not feel that it is neces sary oui of compliment to ME. There fore, unless, as I say, you feel that you cannot resist applauding some sentiment I that I may arouse in your bosoins, please keep applause in restraint in so fax as is suited to your convenience." . The audience could not but feel that they had been Justly rebuked, and? there after applauded only when the speaker, by an impressive pause, gave them the tip that a sentiment had been aroused in their bosoms which could not be other wise expressed than by "vigorous hand claps and rapturous cheers. The next number was a brief oration on the Filipinos as" an introductory to an address to the American flag by Joseph Rodman Drake. Mr. Lewis Is" a little wobbly in hit lines in the recitation num bers, but a few Tehearsals will doubtless eradicate this flaw In an otherwise fin ished p'erformance. An instructive part of the programme was the recitation of the adventures of the Greeks meeting the Persians at Marathon, Interspersed with lively little coon stories which dried the tears which ever and anon gistened like diamonds on the cheeks of the feminine portion of the audience. The remainder of the numbers were of a like high order. 'Imitations of speakers such as Patrick Henry and Henry Clay, with a pleasing Innovation of quoting Clays sentiments In Henry's character and vice versa, were frequent, and allu sions to " tuis our glorious country" were brought out with a fire that might have been mistaken for that of a campaign speaker had the entertainer's surround ings not so strongly bespoken the na ture of the entertainment. The audience listened intently after the. water pitcher episode and seemed to be highly pleased with the entire performanc. It is only to be regretted that Mr. Lewis cannot be secured for a matinee, as the style of his entertainment wotiiu be especially pleas ing to the children.

The bicycle path on the west side ot Milwaukle road to Sellwood is oow al most Impassable in consequence of the rain. The gravel has washed off In -many places, and the path Is too muddy to be used. Most wheelmen use the east side path, which Is still in fair condition. Sellwood wheelmen are talking of ask ing the County Commissioners to repair these paths before they get beyond the repair point The building of the paths cost much money, and it Is unfortunate that theytshould be allowed to deteriorate as are those on the Milwaukle road. A good coating of gravel would restore them and hold them In fair condition through the Fall and "Winter. There are many people at Sellwood and also along the road who use these paths dally.

Many Unregistered Electors Secured the Necesimry Affidavits Notes of the Campaign. A large number of unregistered voters availed themselves yesterday of the ser vices of Notary Public John P. Logan, who is now stationed at 103 Third street. , voters found no olmcuity in securing freeholders , who were, acquainted with them among the great crowd of people who constantly pass that way, and over 50 men who might not otherwise have voted were provided with the necessary affidavits and will cast their ballots for President, Vice-President and State Rep resentatives November 6. It is evident from the number of ap plications -which have been , .made for blanks that a great many voters either failed to register last Spring or have moved here or have become of age since that time . The effort of the Republi cans to give tevery one an opportunity to vote is greatly appreciated and ill probably result in a large vote being polled In November.

' SATURDAY'S BIG PARADE. It Promises to Surpass the Demon Mtratlon Foar Years Ago. At the called meeting of the represen tatives' of the various Republican clubs of Multnomah County ahd delegates from the different labor unions, manufacturers, t merchants, etc., held at the Tabernacle' last evening, arrangements were made for the Immense final rally and parade which will take place Saturday evening, .November 3. Much enthusiasm, was map Jfested, as the different delegates reT ported the number of men that the va rious organizations will turn out. The committee reported that they had about perfected arrangements to furnish all Re publican applicants with torches, rockets, cymbals, dlnner-palls, etc. A subcommittee was appointed to com municate with all the manufacturers and merchants of the city, so that those who so desire may participate in the parade. Another committee was appointed to in vite all the country clubs throughout the county to join. In this Jinal grand rally. The committee will endeavor to arrange1 with the different transportation compa nies for reduced rates. Indications are that, the parade will be an immense af fair and will equal the rally held four years ago. If It does not even surpass It. Notes of the Campaign. The Republican rally held at Gresham last night was addressed by Hon. Tilmon Ford, and great enthusiasm was mani fested. Nearly all of the farmers In that neighborhood, many of wBom supported Bryan in 1S96, will vote for McKinley this Fail, as they have been exceedingly pros perous under h. Republican Administra tion and want no change. Judge J. C. Moreland addressed a big meeting at Pleasant'Home Saturday night and reports a very encouraging outlook in that part of the, county.

Are for Fifth, Ward Sound Money Club. Tombrrow evening the Fifth Ward Sound Money Republican Club will Lpld Its regular meeting at its clubroomB, corner First and Jefferson streets. The club has arranged a very Interesting pro gramme for the evening, having, among other attractions, procured good -muslo for the occasion. Hon. O. F. Paxton will deliver the principal address of the even ing. "Mr. Paxton has the reputation of being a very forcible speaker. He Is dne of the Republican candidates for Presi,-' dential Elector. Chris Bell will also de liver a short address. Mr. Bell was a member of the Second Oregon Volunteers and aw active service in the Phlllpplno Islands. The meeting will be called to order at 8 o'clock sharp. All members of the club are earnestly requested to attend, and the general public Is cordially In vited to be present Mr. Colvis's Address. Although it has- been the rule to hold big Republican rallies in Portland Satur day nights, the address at Hon. "W. M. Colvlg, at the Tabernacle, will be given Friday, in order not to interfere with the meeting of the A. O. U. W., of which" order Mr. Colvlg Is 'a prominent member. The fact that Mr. Colvlg voted for Bryan In 1896 will give added interest to his words, and makes him especially effec tive i,n working among Democrats. He has traveled In many parts of -the state and has done much to destroy the Demo cratic majority In his own county, Jack son. Mr. Colvlg is an effective and forci ble speaker, and there is no doubt thatj one of the largest audiences' that ever as sembled In the campaign will gather to hear hlmt 4 v Good Music, Too.

It Is evident that a very large propor tion of railway men thoso who work In the machine shops will vote for McKin ley and Roosevelt this year. A fair idea may be gathered of the drift of opinion among the 200 men employed fh the East Side shops of the Southern Pacific Rail way Company. Here the politics ofi a man cuts no figure whatever, if he be capable and Industrious, and the master mechanic, while a Republican, does not encourage political excitement nor put the slightest restrains on the men. Four yearg ago there was much political excite ment in tho shops, although but about 100 men were employed there at that time. The men were pretty well divided up. There were at least 20 Populists and as many Democrats. The remainder or ganized the Sound Money Club. But the Situation there is very different now among the 200 men at work. Some of the old-time Populists are there, but they will -vote for McKinley. There are some Democrats who have also changed. It was stated yesterday by one who knows about every man there .that out of the 200 men he did-not think that there were over 10 who were outspoken, Bryan men, and those, were dyed-ln-the-wool Demo crats whom nothing could change. There is little political talk going on among the men, but there Is a quiet de termination to vote to maintain present conditions. On former occasions the shops men 'were very uncertain, but quiet ex pression among them is for the Repub lican ticket .Nowhere have the prosper ous conditions been felt more directly In Portland than In 'these shops. A vast amount of work Is being turned out In the machine shops long hour3 are re quired to turn out;, what Is Imperative, and it is necessary to fcut In seven days to keep up. All the buildings are crowd ed with repair work. On tho grounds alsothere Is a large accumulation of ma terial. The shops men know what all this means. They know It means the country is generally prosperous, or there would not be such demand for cars. They know also It means lemploymeirt for many men. l . "We are not going' to vote to put a stop to this activity," remarked a shops man yesterday, "you see about here, and we know what would happen if Bryan should be elected. The men are not mak ing a stir about it, but they will go quietly to the polls and vote to con tinue, present conditions. I have talked with a great 4 many, and they under stand the situation1 thoroughly. A good many were misled, four years ago, but will not be deceived again. They want no change this time." . ' Selected Another Campground. The M. A. Ross Post and Woman's Relief Corps, G. A. R., at Pleasant Home, ,, at a meeting beld in their hall Saturday afternoon, " decided to accept the offer of a new compground on the Lake fract, -four -miles nearer Portland, .on the Powell's Valley road.

It is In a beautiful alder grove, Johnson Crek flows on one side and there Is a living spring with a large flow of water, besides being much nearer to Portland. The old grounds were once In a dense growth of fir trees, but these nae been cut away, and access has be come difficult. It is estimated that $50 worth of work would have to be ex pended to build a new road and make Im provements before another reunion could be held there. Members of Portland posts will also attend now that the grounds will be much closer. At this same meet ing the post and corps decided to dedicate the renovated hall at Pleasant Home on the evening of November 10, with an en tertainment and with addresses. If the weather be favorable a number of people from the city are expected to attend the dedication. District Makes a Charge. The Directors of the Woodstock pub lic school, adjoining the city on tho south west, announce that they will charge tuition to outside pupils attending their school. For pupils between the first and sixth, grades the tuition will be $15 per year, and above that grade the charge will be $18 per year. The Directors say this is hardly what It costs the district, and Is as low as they can afford to make the tuition. Of course, this action was taken to affect the pupils from the city school attending In the "Woodstock dis trict, of whom there are eight. SInco the opening these pupils have been at tending tho "Woodstock school, for the reason that any city building Is too far away, and the children must either at tend there or be kept at home. No agreement has yet been made with the Directors of the city district for the pay ment of the tuition, according to these terms, and the parents are beginning to STRUCK IT RICH "When They Needed It Bad. "When a two-months-old baby refuses tot nurse and cannot digest any of the b'aby foods' or cows' milk prepared in different ways, we must do something or lose the baby. That was the condition of our little one about a year and a half ago. "We tried every baby food on the mar ket, beside the cow's milk, but nothing seemed to agree with him. He suffered from indigestion, until by the time he was nine months old he had grown so weak and emaciated that we didn't think he could live. At last his stomach" re fused to take anything, and for three days the little fellow was actually starv ing for something he could digest. "I happened to, have a box of Grape Nuts In the house, and getting a tea spoonful, poured a little hot water over It, letting the food stand a few minutes, then gave tho baby the brown water Which had the strength of the Grape Nuts in it. He could take but two spoons ful at a time and then rest awhile. "Hls stomach retained the food and after one day's use of the Grape-Nuts In this way, his bowels were right, for the first time In six months. I continued to feed him the water from the Grape-Nuts and'a little cream, and later on the soft ened food itself, and he steadily Im proved, his little body and limbs begin ning to get round and plump, and by the time he was a year old he was as large again as when nine months old. At 15 months ho weighed 23 pounds, and now, at 18 months, he Is a great, fat, Jolly baby, climbing and oing everywhere, full of fun, rosy cheeks, and bright eyes. "During all this time his food has been Grape-Nuts, just the water at first, then later on he had the food Itself. He is the best advertisement Grape-Nuts could have In this town, for every one knew his con dition and no one thought he could possi bly live. We give all the praise to this most valuable food, and never lose an op portunity to recommend It to persons suffering from indigestion and lack of nourishment." Mrs. C. D. Johnston, Greenfield. Ind. Actual proof is better than all theory, yet it is well to know that Grape-Nuts food Is made scientifically and made for a purpose. The most powerful elements In wheat and barley are used and so pre nared as to furnish the human body with 'those food elements, predlgested in a nat ural manner, that Is, turned from starch Into grape sugar. The food is powerful enough for ath- letesand easy enough of digestion (as shown by the above experience) for the SILVERFIELD EXCLUSIVE MANUFACTURER Of... FURS SEALSKINS A-.
