THE NEW YEAR'S OREGONIAK.
Many people of Portland have asked re
cently "whether The Oregonlan would pub
lish, a New Year's issue on January 1
next The Oregonlan may be permitted to
state in this connection that not only
with The Oregonlan publish its usual an
nual number on the first day of the new
year, but that this number will bo the
best New Year's edition in the history
of the paper. The special features of the
New Year's Oregonlan for 1904 will be an
nounced to the public In advance of Its
publication.
Fish and Game Association to Meet.
A meotlng of the directors of the Oregon
Fish and Game Association will be held
this evening in room 314, "Worcester block.
It has been called to endeavor to devise
ways and means of securing a trout
hatcherj' for Oregon. This region is fairly
well supplied with salmon hatcheries, but
the association is desirous of securing an
appropriation for the establishment of a
first-class trout hatchery. Other matters
of Importance will come up for considera
tion at the meeting. The directors of the
association are: A. C. Panton, James Tay
lor, F. B. Thorn, E. F. Tucker, J. D.
Honeyman, Portland; H. S. Garfield. Pen
uloton; W. T. Wright Union; E. D. Tiche
nor, Clatskanle; Edwin Stone, Albany; I.
S. Fritz, The Dalles; Alexander Martin,
Jr., Klamath Falls.
Cembnt Sidewalks foe Park Blocks.
The Board of Park Commissioners Is ad
vertising for bids for the construction of
cement sidewalks on both sides of the five
Park blocks, between Salmon and Mar
ket streets, at a cost of something over
52000. which will be paid out of the Park
fund. The property-owners on both sides
of the blocks mentioned have laid concrete
sidewalks, and the citj had allowed the
plank walks on the edges of the blocks to
go to decay. It was therefore due to the
property-owners along these, blocks that
the city should put down proper walks on
its property. There will be 2000 feet of
four-foot walk, 160 feet of six-foot walk,
and S4 feet at the corners, of 12-foot walks,
which will place the five blocks in
pood order as far as sidewalks are con
cerned. Stork Moves East of Rockies. The
storm that held the Pacific Northwest In
its destructive grasp "Wednesday had
moved east of the Rocky Mountains yes
terday, according to the reports to the
local weather bureau, and the elements
are now in the state of unrest that usu
ally follows a storm of the kind that has
passed. There were no Indications of a
following disturbanti urn, .
the weather man thinks that more quiet
weather will prevail for a few days. The
condition is unsettled, though, and a new
storm might make its apeparance unex
pectedly. The telegraph wires that were
out nearly all day Wednesday were in
working order yesterday, practically with
out exception.
Hotel to Be Leased. The three-storv..
hotel building of 84 rooms, being erected
by C A. Malarkey, adjoining the Snell
Hcltshu building on the west, has been
leased to C. D. Scott, an old hotel man of
Kansas. The rough-cast, pebble-dash out
side finish is now being put on, and. the
rooms plastered and it is expected" to
have the building ready for occupancy by
January 1. The name proposed by Mr.
Malarkey for the hotel was the Ellsworth,
In honor of his old commander of the
Zouaves. The lessee will probably change
this, but has not selected any name yet.
LoooncG Camps Close Down. There
has been quite a fall of snow in the moun
tains back of Rainier since the late storm
commenced, which has caused a number
of logging camps In that region to be
closed down temporarily. The conditions
In logging camps in Oregon are so differ
ent from those in Eastern camps, owing
to the general use of logging railways,
that they cannot be operated successfully
when there is snow on the ground. Many
of the loggers have come to Portland to
stay until the snow has gone and work
may be started again.
Too Wet to Plow. Farmers were com
plaining a short time ago that the ground
was so dry and hard that they could not
plow sod ground. At present they say
that the ground is so moist that they can
only plow sod. but the moisture -will seep
away soon, and then they will finish up
their plowing. At present many of them
are killing fat hogs and hauling them,
and coops of poultry, potatoes and apples,
to town and dealers are well stocked with
these articles.
Gat Harsmmak8 Recovery Doubtful.
Gay Harshman, the bandit who was shot
in the head while holding up the O. R. &
N. Co.'s train at Corbett in September,
has not yet rocovered. He is confined in
the county Jail and is under the treatment
of Br. E. P. Geary. The bullet has not
been removed, nor definitely located.
Harshman Is still weak and his eventual
complete recovery is still a matter of
doubt.

Staged, managed and owned in Port
land and with several of the company
looking upon Portland as their home. Hall
Caine's well-known play, "The Christian,"
under the direction of George L. Baker,
opened at the Marquam last night night
and was warmly welcomed by a large
audience, limited to the seating capacity
of the theater. There was nearly a dozen
curtain recalls, and bouquets were fairly
showered on Catherine Countlss, the lead
ing woman, and Efilena Blair, who was
born at Eugene, and whose "home Is in
this city.
From a scenic point of view Mr. Baker's
production of "The Christian" is fully
equal to and is as artistic as tho original
production of the attraction sent out by
Llebler & Co.. -of New York. The scen
ery was painted in ten weeks' time by
Alta Tishbauer in Baker's scenic studio
in the 'Exposition building, and has won
many compliments everywhere the show
has gone, to Texas and return. People
were astonished to know that the attrac
tion, with scenery and staging, all came
from Portland, Or., and the fame of this
city has arisen immeasurably since then
In the realm of art It has been the best
sort of an advertisement for Portland and
the Baker Theater enterprises.
Catherine Countis3 played the charac
ter of Glory Quayle, minister's daughter
and music hall singer, during the first sea
son of the Baker Theater Company in this
city, and h& artistic conception of the
part secured for her the warmest com
mendation from her audiences and crit
ics. It is a creation made famous by two
stars like Viola Allen and Elsie Leslie,
and by stock stars such as Henrietta
Browne. But since the days when she
wasGloryQuayleat Baker's Theater, Miss
Countlss had broadened in her art and she
has a firmer and more human grip on
the character. She is now playing ly on
absorbing emotional lines, and 13 wise
enough to give to it chameleon-like color,
so that with everj' scene there is a new
Glory Quayle before the audience. In tho
tlltlng-ground in the Isle of Mann, she
was the careless girl, yet fancy free, with
glorious auburn hair covering her head
like a crown of dull red gold. The action
really began In the scene representing the
Coliseum Muslc-Hall, London, and from
this time on Miss Countlss appeared in
several stunning gowns, among them be
ing a white and a blue. Her most excit
ing, best work was in tho famous scene
in her own apartments at Clement's Inn,
where John Storm, temporarily insane,
tries to strangle her to deliver her soul
from tho devil. Here the staging and
lime-light effects are most artistic, and
in that fateful fight for life Miss Countlss
was most convincing and acted with a cer-.
tain amount of reserve power. Her elocu
tion was beautiful at all times, and lent a
dignity to her acting. Her Glory Quayle
will live.
There was considerable curiosity to seo
Asa Lee Wlllard as John Storm, aristo
crat and priest Mr. Wlllard looks the
character, and has a good presence and
voice. It would be an improvement how
ever, if he would not hurry in his lines
in the third scene. He was aest In the
quarrel scene with Glory Quayle, and the
glowing, pulsating psychological picture
he drew, caught the fancy.of the audience.
Frederick Esmelton made the most of
the cold, thankless part of Lord Robert
Ure, one of the blots in the book, and
John M. Sullivan surprised people by the
realism and ability he exhibited in play
ing the part of Horatio Drake. He made
one of the hits of the evening. Etheylene
Palmer (Mrs. Carlyle Moore, of thl3 city)
was the Polly Love, and the problem work
she had to do was quiet appealing and
good. Frank Fanning, lately with the
Mordant-Humphrey Company, made an
able Brother Paul. Nicholas Cogley was
sufficiently worldly as the archdeacon.
Hazel Kllday, Efilena Blair and Edna St
Clair made good as the three graces. This
is Miss Blair's first year on the stage,
and she Is possessed of a good- deal of
talent She received a special welcome
from her former schoolmates In the audi
ence. "The Christian" ought to be seen, even
-cr no other reason than its stern moral
lesson, with happiness at the end for
Glory and her lover. It will be played
thisvand tomorrow evening, with a speci
ally priced matinee tomorrow afternoon
at 2:15 o'clock.
"The Dancing Girl."
The Baker Theater Company is draw
ing towards the close of the first week
at its own theater, and Is now thorough
ly re-established with all the old patrons
of the house. "The Dancing Girl" gives
several of the prominent members In the
cast splendid opportunities, and yet leaves
still others to come forward In tho plays
to be seen In the future. The stage set
tings and costumes are rich and elegant
and the wide staircase, down which Miss
Crawford, as Drusllla Ives, makes such a
sensational and dangerous fall, is one of
the richest scenic effects ever produced
on a Portland stage. It is the wonder
of every one how Miss Crawford can
fall heavily to the floor and roll help
lessly down a long flight of stairs every
night without a dangerous risk of serious
injury, but that Is part tof tho business
and she just has to do It It Is no doubt
a leading part she is not much envied
in by even the most ambitious young
actress who watches the performance.
Dainty Little Tot Makes a Hit.
. dainty little tot in red makes the
hit of her life at the Arcade Theater. She
trips on the stage In the "Great Two and
One-Hair act of the De Grau family. She
Isn't as big as a minute, but she has a
sweet clear xolce and she Isn't on tho
stage more than a breath or two before
she is sinclntr "I Want to Be an Aotnr
vLady" in a way that provokes instant
applause. Ana then she dances. She does
funny little hops and skl'ps, and then
She would not be
an old maid if slie

Hair Vigor. &:
erCo.,
Xui.
shows that she can rag with the profes
sional dancer.
This act Is only one evidence that tho
Arcade Theater under Its new manage
ment is going steadily' to the front Since
October 19, when the change was made.
the bill has steadily improved, and thej
management promises to maintain its nign
standard. It has done so this week with
the Melnott Sisters, L. C. Lamar, ' an
amusing black-face comedian, Mozarto,
really and. truly a musical genius, and
Virginia Hayden, the girl baritone.
The acts at the Arcade are the most re
freshing ever presented in vaudeville. Why
not be refreshed?
"The Prisoner of Zenda."
Those who recall some of the big week3
at the Baker Theater last season when
such plays as "The Christian," "Tho
Little Minister," "Charley's Aunt" etc,
were put on, can easily form soma idea,
of what will happen about this popular
house of amusement next week, during
the production of "The Prisoner of
Zenda," Anthony Hope's greatest story
and one of the really great dramas of
modern times. The most elaborate prep
arations have been under way for a week
and when the curtain goes up for the
first performance Sunday afternoon not a
detail will be lacking to make the pro
duction In every way equal to those of
the high-priced road companies that have
before presented this elaborate play in
Portland. The regular Baker Theater
prices will not change.
"Rudolph and Adolph."
Mason and Mason, who are well known
here as German dialect comedians, will
present the third edition of "Rudolph and
Adolph" at Cordrays Theater for tho
week commencing Sunday, November 15.
This big, bright musical comedy company,
owine to orior nnnearances in "Pnrtlnnr?
has firmly established itself as a favorite, t
ana tne management promises that it
comes this season with many new mu
sical numbers and a remarkably strong
cast of Interpreting farceurs. A superb
singing chorus of beautiful girls, hand
somely costumed, Is one of the features.
Among the new song hits Introduced are
"Lady," "My Nightingale." "Good-Bye,
Liza Jane," 'jln Gay Paree" and the latest
New York success, "Reminiscences of
Days Gono"By."
"Tennessee's Pardner."
"Tennessee's Pardner" will bo given at
Cordray's Theater tonight at both per
formances tomorrow, and for the last time
at the special Sunday matinee. It Is sel
dom that a play Is produced at a popular
priced theater with .such a strong and
evenly balanced cast Not only are the
leading parts well played In "Tennessee's
Pardner," but tho small parts are all char
acter studies, and played in such a man
ner as to leave nothing but a wholesome
impression of both play and company.
Ladies and children will greatly enjoy
"Tennessee's Pardner" at the matinee
Saturday.
"A Gentleman of France."
Mr. James Nelll and the Incomparable
Neill Company will bo the attraction at
the Marquam Grand Theater next Thurs
day, Friday and Saturday nights, Novem
ber 19, 20 and 21, special matinee Satur
day, In the beautiful romantic drama, "A
Gentleman of France."
