Plated Joke on Romeo. A young man
who lives near tho river, a few miles
above this city, got himself Into a very
unpleasant predicament a few nights
since, all on account of the frosty weath
er. He was In love -with the daughter of
a fisherman who lives over on the other
side. Just opposite to him. On three even
ings of the week he "would bitch up his
horse and buggy, drive to the nearest
bridge, cross over ond spend the evening
at the house where the young woman
lived. He was a cold-hearted fellow, and
used to hitch his horse to the fence In
front of the house and let It stand there
shivering In the cold till about midnight.
This cruelty to the poor beast roused the
sympathy of some boys In the neighbor
hood, and they undertook to teach the
young mm better. One night last week
they untied the horse and drove It up
the road about a mile, ana tnen un
hitched it and took It across lots to a
farmer's bam. Here they fed tho horse
and gave It a good bed. They then placed
the buggy close alongside a stout board
fence and with a wrench took off the taps
at the end of the axles on the side next
the fence, removed the wheels, pushed the
ends of tho axles through the fence and
replaced the wheels on the inside of the
fence. -When Romeo came out to go
borne, about midnight, he was enragod to
find that his outfit had vanished. He
started up the road, and soon found the
buggy, and. after examining the ground
by moonlight soon tracked the horse to
the barn. It did not take him long to
get the horse back to the vehicle, and be
tween the shafts, but the buggy was not
to be moved without tearing the fence
down. Finally he went back to the house
where he had been courting, and Dor-
rowed a monkey-wrench and a hired man
to get his buggy loose. In doing this and
nutting tho wheels on the axles again he
got the large hind wheel on the forward
axle, and vice versa, and -when be started
off at a rapid rate of speed his buggy did
not run level. Any one can supply tne
remilnder of the story.
Untrained Labor Is PuaniUL. In
speaking of the necessity of training
echools, the superintendent of a large
manufacturing establishment In this city.
where many skilled workmen are en
ployed, said yesterday that he had half a
dozen to a doxen men daily applying to
him for work. When asked -what they
can do, the usual answer Is that they can
do anything, which in about every case
is found to mem that they cannot do
anything. As a general rule the men are
unskilled laborers, and will remain so to
the end the class "who do work of any
kind about the country during' the Sum.
mer and flock to the city in the Winter,
ready to take their chances at any kind
of work they can secure, whether they
know anything about it or not. Sym
pathy often induces superintendents to
give such men a trial, especially those
who are promising in appearance, but
they are usually found to be more In the
way than of any use, .and have to be
watched all the time to prevent them
from endangering their lives and the lives
of others. Bven when set to pulling on a
rope they do not know how to pull effl
clently. They have grown up without
education or training of any kind and are
not St for working among skilled work
men.
Ckxkesh Miesionabt Lectures. The
Rev. Laurence B. Ridgely. an Episcopal
ian missionary of Wu Chang, China,
gave a very interesting talk on the con
dition of the Chinese women in China,
last evening in Trinity Chapel. Mr.
Ridgely spent four years working among
the Chinese and teaching them the mean
lng of living a Christian life. He spoke
last night on the customs of the Chinese
in bringing up and marrying their women.
He said that most stories concerning the
casting out of the girl babies were ex
aggerated, and in cases of this kind the
ciuse was usually due to the poverty of
the parents. Mr. Ridgely spoke of the
good work that was being done for the
Chinese, and how great was the need of
more missionaries in that field. Mr.
Ridgely returned from China last June,
and since that time has been lecturing in
tho principal cities of the united States,
He arrived in this city last night, and
will remain a few days. Sunday morning
he will preach at St. David's. Sunday
afternoon at 1:30 he will lecture at the
T. M. C. A. Hall, and in the evening will
talk again at Trinity ChapeL
Trading With California. Assistant
United States Engineer D. B. Ogden re
turned yeaterdiy from Umpqua, where
he went a week ago to make a prelim'
lnary examination of the bar at the
mouth of the harbor. He took the stage
from Drain, to Scottsburg, 36 miles, a
rough trip lasting about 11 hours, not
-withstanding that the driver said that the
roads were in pretty fair condition. It
was probably owing to this and to the
beautiful country passed through that
Mr. Ogden walked Z( miles going and
coming, the walking being pleasant.
though the roads were muddy. Umpqua
is a thriving and prosperous section.
though the inhabitants do most Of their
trading with California as yet.
He Threw Rubbish on tiib Street.
For throwing rubbish on the street, A.
Goldblatt, a hawker, was yesterday placed
under arrest by Officer Caswell. Since
merchants have been prohibited from dis
playing their wares on the sidewalk it is
thought to be only just that the hawker
wagons shall not be allowed to stand in
front of the stores and throw refuse
matter on the street. "In some places
where the wagons stand," said the om
cer after making the arrest, "the street
Is literally covered with banana peelings
and other rubbish that the hawkers throw
on the street. This is In violation of the
city ordinance and must be stopped."

If the statement published Thursday
evening In regard to a meeting of rose
growers having been called for this after
noon at 2 o'clock was not authorized. It
was not stated who had called the meet
ing, nor where it was to be held, and a
number of the members of the Rose-
growers' Association who were asked
about it yesterday had heard nothing of
any such meeting having been called by
any one. The vice-president of the asso
ciation, F. V. Holman. was in saiem. ine
secretary, Mr. Lee. has been confined to
his house, end knew nothing of any such
meeting. Mrs. D. IL Steirns, Mrs. George
H. Lamberson and other members 'of the
association had not heard of any meet- I
ing being called. Secretiry Lee will call
a meeting about the 1st of next month
for the election of officers, it is very ae
slrable that there should be a meeting
of tho members of the association, to
make arrangements fcr uncovering and
setting out rose plants on such grounds
as the superintendent of the Lewis and
CUrk Fair grounds may designate, but
this Is not likely to be held until after the
election of officers. It is not known that
any action has been taken in the matter
of setting apart any portion of the fair
grounds for rose culture. The wnoie ous
lness will probably recelvo attention as
soon as possible.
Returned Horse to Wrong Stable.

but a few objectors have been able to
prevent the scheme from being carried
out. The length of street It is desired to
have Improved Is 2400 feet. Tne improve

necessary only to have one-tnira or tne
property-owners interested upon the pe

Marchioness of Vavasour
Virginia. Drew Treaeott
It is pleasant to record the fact that Vir
ginia Drew Treaeott. who first studied for
the stage In Portland a little over two
years ago, and who looks upon this city
a her home, appeared as a star at the
Marquam Theater last night under the di
rection of David Traltcl in Virna Woods'
dramatization of Oulda's novel. "Strath
more." and achieved quite a success. It
Is surprising that she, on this, her first
tour as a star (for she only began play
ing "Strathmore" at Easton. Pa., last
October), should have made such rapid ad
vancement In her chosen profession. She
is an emotional actress of the first rank,
for to act her part she had to play dur
ing four acts against the natural sym
pathy of hex audience, and she succeeded
in holding attention to the last, often In
hushed silence. She excels In purity of
articulation, and her voice Is the moat
pleasant and magnetic that has been
heard In the Marquam Theater for a long
time. Her gowns arc lovely creations of
art, and tho play Is well staged. This is
all the more true of the first scene, where
the Strathmore motto, "Slay all; spare
none," frowns from tho rear wall, and
near this is a charming picture of an
English hunting scene with horses, dogs
and red-coated horsemen.
The plot chiefly concerns the dolngn of
Marion, Marchioness of Vavasour (Miss
Trescott). the Marquis of Vavasour (A. L.
Gllko) and Lord Strathmore (Alexander
Frank). It turns out that the Marchioness
is not really married to her supposed
husband, and that she is wife in name
only. She is satisfied with the position
he gives her, but is really a heartless
flirt, never happy except when reading
men to love her and then fool them. Be
cause Major Erroll (Rogers Barker) would
not be her slave, she gets him entangled
in a quarrel with Strathmore, who loves
her, and a duel follows but not on the
stage in which Erroll Is fatally shot. Va
vasour Is suddenly stricken In bis sin
by heart disease, and with his dying
breath he tells the world generally that
the Marchloners Is not his wife, but In
telling this Mr. Gtlkq Is far too healthy
tor a dying man. Ills voice Is too robust.
MIfs Trescott Is Impassioned In her love
scenes with Strathmore, even when he
discards her, and proposes marriage af
terward to the daughter of tho man he
killed. Mr. Frank Is very English, but
this Is quite In keeping, as Strathmore Is
an English nobleman, and his support was
satisfactory. The play Is of the problem
order; there Is no humor in it, but It is
true and strong, and Miss Trescott gave
powerful portraitures, amounting to
genius. She was cordially received, had
two curtain recalls, and was presented
with several bouquets. "Strathmore" will
be the attraction at the matinee this af
ternoon, and will close with the perform,
ance tonight.
It Drives Array the Dines.
Only two more chances to see what
the comforts of home really are! This
afternoon and evening will be the last
time to see "All the Comforts of Home'
at the Baker. This should not be missed.
For the past week this popular playhouse
has been crowded nightly with persons
who went away fully satisfied. People
are still talking about this play. Theater
goers who have seen the play once have
gone to see It again, for as a jrrlef-dls
perscr and laugl)-producer, it cannot be
excelled. Theater patrons have re com
mended "AH the Comforts of Home" to
their friends. There Is a good reason
for it. There Is almost always some per
son who finds some flaws In a play. In
'All the comforts ofrHome" none were
found not even Imaginary ones. It is
a play guaranteed to drive the blues
away. Performances this afternoon and
evening.

The Great Diamond Robbery." which
will appear at the Baker next week, has
a good deal of human nature, quiet hero
ism and engaging romance about it which
will endear It to the theater-golmr mibHc
It Is vividly pictorial in its revelation of
peculiar phases of character and social
conditions existing la Russia's capital. It
Is a curious and distinct endeavor In
