Tales of the Street and Town
PERHAPS this solves a mystery of
the Philippines. During one of the
lunch-hour Intermissions at the
court-martial of Major Harry L. Rocs at
Vancouver last week, a group of officers
and civilians -were chatting at the Offi
cers' Club. Most of the military men had
served in the Philippines. The conversa
tion turned upon the subject of the
drinks of the tropics.
"The vino of the Philippines is the
deadliest beverage ever concocted for the
use of mankind." remarked Colonel X.
"What's vino?" asked a Portland law
yer. "It's the National drink of the Fili
pinos. It's made from the fermentation
of rice and the" ref
use of the sugar
mills. A little of it
brings a drunk that
a man cannot get
over for days, or
weeks. Often one
lever gets over it.
"A, certain quan

"Vino." Insane, would leave
after-effects that are terrible. I would
be afraid to estimate the number of sui
cides that have been directly traceable to
vino."
Said Major Y: "The natives drink it in
thimblefuls. not more than one or two
drinks a day. Our men swallowed It like
whisky, or even beer. It seems to upset
the whole physical, mental and moral
fiber of a man. I believe that the
thoughtless use of it accounts for the
downfall of more than one man, who
served honorably for a time, but after
wardssometimes even after returning to
the States went all to pieces in every
way. The average soldier, officer or pri
vate, will drink to a certain extent, If
he can get the drink. Perhaps the army

NICK HAMMERSTBIN, the hand

That Is, newspaper men. who write
stories about hot cakes and maple syrup,
stormy nights and uniforms. But here's
one on Kick that will surely bring about
a homicide, or at least an assault and
battery case.
One night (another stormy one) Nick
igot a "fare" for the 11:40 train to the
Sound. It was close to train time, and
Kick drove rapidly through the storm of
wind and rain. At the station the fare
alighted and fished up from his trou
sers' pocket a handful of gold. Suddenly
a coin fell from the lot, and, striking the
sidewalk, bounded and rolled into tho
gutter.
"There!" exclaimed the man, "J
haven't time to
hunt for that five.
Give me a couple of
dollars' change, and
you find it and keep
the rest for your
self." "Only got a dollar
change," said Nick,
shrewdly.
"All right; that's
good 'nough." The
man pocketed the
dollar and hurried
to the train.

"Fiver."
Next moment Nick straightened up
with a coin in his fingers. I glittered like

In the .City's Trouble Shop
A Domestic Farce TOich Turned Out to Be a Tragedy
- BY JOHN DOB.
THIS is the true story of the man
who was grossly Inconsiderate of
his wife. It is not a certainty he
has any wife, now.
Mr. and Mrs. Thomas D. HIghtower,
late of St- Louis, were en route to a lit
tle spread at an uptown restaurant
when Mr. HIghtower observed that he
needed an appetizer. He was not feel
ing tiptop and was sure a stimulant
was needed-to put Jilm in better humor.
Mrs. Thomas HIghtower demurred to
being loft on the street alone while
Mr. HIghtower entered a liquor dis
pensary and only consented tinder pro
test after he had
promised to remain
In the place less
than twc-mlnutes.
She took up a po
sition at the cor
ner of' Sixth and
Stark streets and
waited.
It happened that
Mrs. II i g-h t o we r
was hungry and It
seemed that ' Mr.
HIghtower was
i thirstier than he
' knew. The result
was that two min
utes three min
utes ten minutes
half an hour
passed - and Mrs.
HIghtower stood
alone at the corner of Sixth and Stark
streets nursing a constantly growing
appetite and rising anger. She had
just reached the sobbing stage when a
nice-looking young fellow stepped up
and tipped his hat.
"Mrs. HIghtower. as I live," he ex
claimed! "I'm ju&t going to dinner.
Join m.e; what are you standing here
for. anyway?"
Mrs. HIghtower looked up to recog
nize an old St. Louis friend. After a
moment's resitation she accepted the
pro'lfered arm and went with him to
dinner. Just to" get even with that
me'hn, horrid, old husband, whose voice
she had heard once or. twice during the
past 30 minutes, rising in jubilant
laughter from behind the curtained
doors across the way.
Mrs. Thomas D. HIghtower returned
to "her husband's suite in the Oxford
House some two hours later to find her
husband absorbed in a magazine. He
did not seem to notice her entrance at
all and there was a painful silence of
five minutes' duration, until Mr. HIgh
tower. having finished his story, laid it
aside with dramatic calmness.
"I say." he Tcmarked, tranquilly,
alter a while, "that was a nice-looking
chap you danced away with Just as I
was crossing the street to take you to
dinner."
"He's as nice, too, as he Is nice look
ing." snapped Mrs. HIghtower, "for he
didn't ask me to wait on the corner
while he went in some horrid place to
get a drink."
"Ah, vlllianous woman, I shall leave
. you forever," thundered HIghtower;
he's dry. If I ever catch him without a
license-tag on I'll feed him. inch by inch,
to a dull sausage-machine!"

said Ed Wright, "but I heard
one over at Olympla the othcre day that

"Calvert, he's a newspaper writer over

have been putting up money for several
years past for the development of a hole
in the ground. The 'rock neyer got any
better, and the little syndicate began to
grow tired of putting out one hard-earned
dollar after another. So, as last, they
notified the man In charge to stop work,
sell off the second-hand tools and the
sack or two of beans left at the shack,
take down the location notices and quit
the claim. The hired man complied
promptly and the syndicate .breathed joy
fully in the thought of getting a spare
dollar or two for cakes and ale, now and
then.
"Next day they .were all bowled over
by being served with papers in a damage
suit. A rancher's cow had fallen down
the shaft and the rancher demanded $100
and costs!"

"If Moses was the son of Pharaoh's

Pharaoh's son."
"Bosh! That would make him Phara

"No, Bosh wouldn't make him any
body's granddaughter. Give it up?"
"Yes, what's the string?"
"They ain't no string it's just as I
said: 'Moses was the Daughter-of-Pha-
raoh's son, see? Daughter-of-Pha-
raoh's son. Pharaoh's daughter was the
daughter of Pharaoh, wasn't she? Sec?"
Jack will recover.
THERE is a goodlooklng butcher at
f Woodlawn. He is also 'a, good
hearted, farmer sort of chap, who
takes a warm interest In other people as
well as in himself. When Mrs. Jones, or
old Mr. Smith, comes In for a chop or
a steak, and happens to mention the
rheumatism, or a lame horse, or some
thing like that, the butcher will pause
In the cutting, no matter how many other
customers are on hand, and say:
"Well, now, that's too bad! I'll tell
you what you want to do: You take a
pint o' vinegar and a quart o salt and
equal parts of wa

come to a boll,"
etc., etc
He got on the car
the other night,

"That so?" the butcher was saying,

In amazement.
"You frighten a woman by threat

Old-Time Actors'
Salaries
Startling Advascen Have Been
Made la tke Matter of Pay Dur
ing Sixty Yearn.
A WRITER, In 1640, commenting on
the state of the drama, asserts
that the first blow to the "destruc
tion of the great theaters "has been tbe
extraordinary increase in the demands
of all kinds of actors"; and to Ulustrato
the injustice of the salaries then given,
gives the following statistics of the sal
aries paid to actors of a preceding gen
eration: "Munden, Fawcett, Quick, Ed
win, Jack Johnstone, and their clas3.

superb comedian, 20 a week; Matthews
In 1S12 wrote, "Now to my offer, which
I think stupendous and magnificent. 17 a
week;" Miss O'Neill, after achieving a
good provincial reputation, received 15
at Covent Garden, and never more than
23; Cooke was paid 20 a week, Mrs.
Jordan, 31 10s a week; Dowton. 12 "and
never more than 20 a week; Miss Steph
ens, 20 a week. All these actors were
ill

we find Macready. la 1S39. receiving 23
a night; Power (1840), 120 a week; Far-
ren, at the same period, 40 a week; Lis-
ton, who began at li a week, ended by
receiving 20 a night; and Miss Ellen
Tree, "certainly a pretty and popular
actress, was engaged by the Drury Lane
manager, when lessee of both theaters,
to play at both for 15 a week. She
then went to Amorica, returned after
two seasons and even after this rustica
tion she comes, demands and even actu
ally obtains 25 a night." The same
writer says that were it not for these
heavy demands upon the treasury of the
management, the dramatic author would
receive larger Bums for his plays; and
Instances the money paid to authors In
the days of Kcmble and Suett by quoting
Coleman, who received 1000 for "John
Bull"; Morton. li"7) for "Town and Coun
try"; Mrs. Ichbaid, 00 for "Wives as
They "Were"; and Reynolds, for two
works in one season ("The Blind Bar
gain" and "Out of Place"), 1000.
Of course the prophet of 1S40 was al
together in the wrong. Perhaps he viewed
the matter from a managerial stand
point; certainly his wail must have been
inspired, for theaters have gone on multi
plying and salaries of actors have gone
on Increasing. Among the American act
ors who are receiving today more
than twice as much as any of
the actors mentioned above are: Nat
C. Goodwin. W. H. Crane, Wilton Lack

George, Maud Adams. Lillian Russell,
Fay Templeton, John Drew. E. H. Soth

Willie Collier. Anna Held. Marie Cahlll.
Henry Clay Barnabee. Cecilia Loftus. Lu

Frank Daniels and perhaps a dozen oth-

AT THE THEATERS
What the Press Agents Say.
Success at the Columbia Theater.
There seems to be a new air of great
prosperity at the Columbia Theater at
tested by audiences at every performance
that fill tho theater. Everybody goes
away delighted with that excellent farce
comedy, "Mistakes Will Happen." which
Is running this week.
There are few people in this world who
do not enjoy an honest, hearty laugh,
and it is true that "Mistakes Will Hap
pen" is filled from start to finish with
situations, dialogue and stage business
that is vastly mirth-provoking. No mat
ter what your troubles may be, no mat
ter what may be worrying you, no matter
what cares you may nave, no mat
ter how comfortably you may have dined
If you pay a visit to the Columbia this
week and witness this extremely enter
taining play, you will be glad you went.
The theater itself is. of course, as
beautiful and comfortable as ever, and the
fact now that the stock company Is thor
oughly understood to be a permanent or
ganization seems to have put all the com
pany on their mettle, and Increased the
general high tide of prosperity and suc
cess' that Is prevalent at tho Columbia.
Nothing succeeds like success, and the
spirit Is In the air. Every member of the
cast has a good chance to display ability,
and th'ey are making their utmost efforts.
The famous knothole scene in the second
act is greeted with round after round of
applause, and all the many laughable in
cidents are thoroughly appreciated. This
week of sprightly and delicious merri
ment at the Columbia will evidently be
a memorable high-water mark In the ad
mirable career of the Columbia Stock
Company in Portland.
Last Performance Tonight.
The last performance of Rose Melville
in her famous play, "Sis Hopkins," will
be given tonight at the Marquam Grand
Theater. This comedy is one with a plot
and given by a most capable company,
making a delightful evening's entertain
ment. Do not miss It.
"Darkest Russia."
The Empire Theater, which opened last
Sunday to two crowded houses, is doing
its share of business this week, where
"Darkest Russia" is being presented by
an excellent company.
If the honest efforts of a liberal man
agement can add to the potency of a
theatrical offering, one which has for
many seasons found a ready and willing
response to its conservative appeals, on
the grounds of genuine dramatic Intensity,
the present exceedingly pompous revival
of "Darkest Bussla" Is bound to make
an honorable Impression wherever a play
of absolute worth skillfully arranged for
the Introduction of consistent humor Is
needed to serve genuine entertainment
purposes. Such a revival. In view of the
mutterings over the possible outcome of
the Russian-Japan war. should give
"Darkest Russia," with its elaborate pro
duction and exceptionally strong cast,
enviable prominence this season. There
will be a regular matinee Saturday.
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"Pretty Peggy" Tomorrow.
Considerable interest attaches to the en
gagement of Jane Corcoran In "Pretty
Pegg'.,r at the Marquam Grand Theater
tomorrow and Thursday nights, December
7 and 8, for the reason that It will not
only be the first opportunity of local
amusement-seekers to see this splendid
play that created such a furore in New
York and the Eastern cities, but will be
the first appearance in this city, as a
star, of an actress who has long been
a favorite. The complete production used
during the metropolitan engagement Is
said to be carried on the present tour,
and the company Is one of exceptional
size and strength. Andrew Robeon, who
was last seen here as a star at the bead
of his own company In "Richard Carvel,"
is Miss Corcoran's leading man, and this
fact further Increases the Interest In the
coming of "Pretty Peggy." for Mr. Robson
also has a large following of admirers.
"Everyman" Advance Sale.
The Interest aroused by the announce
ment that "Everyman" Is to be seen here
at the Marquam Grand Theater next
Friday afternoon, Saturday afternoon and
Sturday night. December 9 and 10, is
quite remarkable. Educators, ministers
of all denominations, scholars and the
"great play-going public generally, all are
showing great enthusiasm over the an
nouncement that Mr. Greet Is to bring
his talented company here. It Is an
nounced that Constance Crawley, who has
aroused so much attention In San Fran
cisco, will appear as "Everyman" here.
The balance of the company Includes Ag
nes Scott. Daisy Robinson. John Sayer
Crawley. Eric Blind. Maurice Robinson.
Samuel H. Goodwyn. Eugene Cleves.
Helena Head. Sybil Thorndyke, Leonard
Shepherd. Perclval Aylmyr. Sydney
Grcenstreet and Frank Darch. The ad
vance sale of seats will open tomorrow
morning at 10 o'clock. Students' tickets
may be had on application at the box
office. Florence Roberts Coming.
Florence Roberts will return to the
Marquam Grand for a week beginning
Monday night, during which she will pre
sent the most brilliant repertoire she has
ever arranged for Portland, embracing
comedy, romantic, tragic and psychologic
drama. The plays will be "Zaza," "Tess
of the D'UrbcrvIlles," "The Adventure
of Lady Ursula," "Marta of the Low
lands," and the remarkable Ibsen drama,
"A Doll's House." Melbourne MacDow
ell will be Miss Roberts' leading support
next week.
"The Prodigal Daughter."
The Colufnbla Stock Company has for
the past week had In active preparation
an elaborate production of the great
Eastern success, "The Prodigal Daughter."

BACK FROM ST. LOUIS FAIR
COLLECTOR OF CUSTOMS TELLS
OF HIS TRIP.
Says Whole of Middle West Is Making
Preparations to Attend the LevIs
and Clark Exposition.
I. I. Patterson, Collector of Customs,
returned from St. Louis yesterday, where
he has been in conference With the cus
toms officials connected with the Exposi
tion In that city.
Owing to the large number of foreign
oYViivtita o-rnpctpcl trt be broucht to the
Lwls and Clark Fair; It was deemed
advisable by the Government that Mr.
Patterson should confer with the St. Louis
officials and gain Information rrom tneir
experience.
Mr. Patterson has gone Into tbe han
dling" of these exhibits very thoroughly,
and Is now busily preparing for the proper
conduct of the business which will arise
from the Fair.
In order to tane proper care of the for
eign exhibits, the Fair grounds will prac
tically form a sub-port of entry, and the
buildings containing such exhibits will be,
In effect, bonded warehouses. Branch of
fices of the local Custom-House will be
established within the grounds, and all
business In connection with the Fair will
be conducted there.
Mr. Patterson, In speaking of his trip,
saJa:
"I went to SL Louis under Government
orders for the purpose stated, and feel
that tho Information gained will be of
great benefit In the work before us.
"While en route I visited Chicago, Kan
sas City, Denver and other cities, but
that which Impressed Itself, most forci
bly upon me was the wide publicity at
tained by the Lewis and Clark Fair.
Everywhere I went I found people talk
ing of our coming Fair, and I was con
tinually being asked questions regarding
It. It would seem aa If every one In the
East had made up their minds to visit us
next year, and if we receive only a small
per cent of those who say they are com
ing we will have enormous crowds from
beginning to end.
"A vast amount of beneficial work has
been accomplished In the advertising done
in St. Louis during the Fair, and our
men there are deserving of great credit.
President Goode has been an Indefatigable
worker, but this can be said of the other
members of the commission as ' well.
Crowds of people visited the Oregon build
ing every day, and care was taken to see
that all heard something of the. Lewl3
and Clark Fair.
"Simply as an Incident of the Interest
taken In our Fair, I might say that while
in Chicago I attended the National Stock
Exhibition. "White talking with some of
the cattlemen there and in speaking of
next year's event, I was told that four
or fixe- of them were planning on sending
a tralnload of their best cattle for exhi
bition, at the Lewis and Clark Fair. More
than this, they Intended to secure the
co-operation of their different associations
and try to do better than the one car
load. From all I have heard and noticed,
our Fair is certain to be a grand success,
and will prove to be a great thing for
Portland."

A story which perhaps goes even fur

reasoning powers of the dog Is told about
a fine setter owned by the Schade broth

hunting in Columbia Slough every Sun

service and usually domes home tired.
Monday morning early he goes away out
to the. slough to hunt ducks on his own
acccount, and almost every time returns
carrying a broken-winged or otherwise
crippled duck, and might often bring
more, but one Is enough of a load for him
to pack bo far. H"e has probably noticed
wing-broken or hard-hit ducks falling far
out of reach on Sunday and seems to
have reasoned that by getting out early
on Monday he will be likely to find such
In places he knows to be the resort or
hiding places of lame ducks, and his suc
cess shows that he has reasoned or re
membered correctly. He evidently feels
that It is his duty to let no guilty duck
escape, and his proud, pleased look, as
he returns from his Monday morning
Jaunts and lays a big mallard at the feet
of his master, shows that he appreciated
the commendations lavished on him. He
never makes such a trip except on Mon
day or the day following a hunting day,
as he appears to realize that there are
others, as minks, crows, etc., on the look
out for lame ducks, and they are not left
long In their misery. .
