tor of the Lambert House, 234 Union ave

owed him money about $20 for dishes,
he alleges she carried away from rooms
she occupied in his house prior to the
trouble. Gannon vows he will yet insti

home to recuperate his health. "I really
could not stand a drop In the temperature
of 40 degrees In one night," said Mr.
Hobson. "It was too much of a change
from the balmy climate to which we are
accustomed out here. The Pacific Coast,
and particularly Oregon, is good enough
for me." Mr. Hobson is the young man
who made a hit with his good stage ap
pearance and falsetto voice as Constance
in the comic opera, "The Ameer," played
last April by the Multnomah Club at the
Marquam Theater.

nostlcator of the unknown future, will

ly court. He was arrested last night,
upon complaint of Miss Elsie Adams, who
resides at 72 East Tenth street. She

nance regulating the placing of signs,
saying she suffered a dreadful rent of her
new raglan as she passed the stairway

Adams iiays she went to the man's office
and told him that she wanted pay for
her ruined coat, but that he waved her
out. She then went and complained
against him.

SUCCESS OF THE MELBA SALE.
An Immense Audience Assured for
ThTs Notable Event.
Madame Melba Is to be greeted by one
of the biggest audiences of the season at
her concert in Armory Hall next Monday
evening. This fact was conclusively
proved by the sale of seats at the Mar
quam Theater box-office yesterday, as the
demand was continuous throughout the
day and the supply of choice seats was
drawn upon to an extent far beyond the
most sanguine expectations. It is grati
fying that such an Interest is being shown
in this event and that the enterprise of
Manager Charles A. Ellis, who has charge
of the Melba concert tour, is to be eo well
recognized by the Portland public It Is
safe to assume that the concert will prove
a most delightful affair, and well repay
all who attend it. The sale of seats con
tinues at the Marquam Theater.

Madame Mantelli and Grand Opera
Artists at the Marquam.
Seats are selling rapidly for the ap
pearance of Madame Eugenia Mantelli
and her company of grand opera artists
in "II Trovatore" at the Marquam Grand
Theater tomorrow night.
Mantelli herself Is acknowledged as one
of the greatest living Italian prima don
nas. Her voice is a rich, resonant mezzo
soprano, developed from a natural con
tralto which set Italy aflame before she
ever came to America. When she made
her first appearance with the Metropoli
tan Opera Company, in New York, as
Azucena. the role which she sings here,
the critics unanimously designated her
as the star of the occasion. In the sup
porting company are such well-known
artists as Madame Helene Noldl, Slgnor
Archllle Albert!, the famous baritone;
Waltor, H. Wheatley and Chatterton
HIckox.

Do you know what it means if a person
has to sell? It means that you can buy
about at your own price and terms. This
is my case. Not having the room in my
new quarters on Morrison street, at least
one-half of my present large stock must
be sold before moving. A. W. Meyer, 74

WORRY 0YR JUROR
Carl Phelps, Missing for Three
Days, Is Found.
DID HE TELL ANY SECRETS?
Secretary of Federal Grand Jury Is
Discovered in a Stupor and
Prosecution Fear He May
Have Been Tricked.
Has Carl Phelps, secretary of the Fed
eral grand Jury, while in a state of irre
sponsibility, told any of the secrets of the
Jury-room to those who may have been
seeking to know them? This Is the ques
tion at this time worrying those who are
conducting the Government's investiga
tions Into the land-fraud conspiracies
now being probed and searched.
Phelps disappeared on-Friday afternoon.
and was not found until yesterday after
noon, when Bailiff George Humphries, in
cnarge of the Jury, discovered him In his
room In bed with his clothes on and either
under the influence of liquor or drugs.
On Friday afternoon Phelps asked to be
excused for a short time, and was allowed
to go by Mr. Hency. From that time
until he was found by Bailiff Humphries
nothing was heard of him and his where
abouts could not be ascertained, and.
Judging from his condition when discov
ered, he had either Just returned to his
room a short time before the visit of the
bailiff, or had been brought home.
Never perhaps in the hlstpry of any in
vestigation or case at law has there been
such a battle of the wits as Is now being
carried on in Portland. Shadows, secret
service men and department detectives
are present, though not to be seen, on
$very hand. The number in the employ
of the Government is problematical.
But the Government is not alone in the
use of spies. It Is known that those who
are under indictment and those who are
fearing Indictment have men in their em
ploy who are attempting by every means
to keep, as near as may b;, close cases
on the work of the Government's agents.
The jplrit of Intrigue is la the air, and
traps have been laid under many guises
for Government officials, though, through
Instinct or warning, nono of them have
as yet been successful. It has been at
tempted to get those In the employ of the
Government In compromising positions, in
order that some Influence might be exert
ed over them, but this so far has failed of
accomplishment.
And so, knowing these circumstances
and conditions, the men who are guarding
the secrets of the Government are anx
ious as to what may have happened while
Phelps was out of the sight of men. The
officials are reticent and will not discuss
the question, but they were much worried
over his temporary disappearance and
took every means possible to locate the
man when he did not answer to roll call
yesterday morning.
It is feared that through the Influence
of those unfriendly to the Government
Phelps might have been drugged into irre
sponsibility and persuaded to tell things
which have happened in the Jury-room
and which might have a vital effect on
the success of the Government's cause.
Phelps did not go to the Jury-room yes
terday after he had been found, by the
bailiff, but it is expected that "he will
appear this morning when the organiza
tion again resumes its investigations.
TAKES ON CITY AIRS.
St. Johns Conscious of Civic Honors
Recently Gained.
St. Johns is now working under the pro
visions of Its new charter, which received
the signature of Governor Chamberlain
last Friday, and the people are happy in
their new dignity. L. B. Chipman who
carried the charter to Salem, and Council
man Monahan. who accompanied him to
assist in getting It passed by the Legisla
ture, came home covered with glory. It
was expected that "The Honest Govern
ment League" would make a strong fight
to have the passage of the charter post
poned, -and A. L. Miner, C. R. Organ and
D. R. Rallton were detailed as a commit
tee by this club to go to Salem and bring
back the document, but they did not go.
L. B. Chlpman said:
"We were very greatly disappointed over
the failure of the committee to come to
Salem, as we had prepared to give It a
fine banquet. The members of the com
mlttee missed a chance to have j
good- time. There was no opposition to
our charter. We did not even have to use
the petition which was sent up by the
people during the week, when It appeared
that there would be some opposition."
The new charter, which goes into effect
April 1. provides for two wards, with two
Councllmen from each ward and three
Councllmen at large, giving the new city
government seven Councllmen. A full set
of officers will be elected the first Monday
In April. Including Mayor, Treasurer, Au
ditor, Councllmen and City Attorney. The
Mayor nominates the City Engineer, all
fire department officers, police and such
other officers as are provided for, and the
Council confirms the nominations. It Is
estimated that the population inside the
city limits now exceeds 2,000 people.
The next step will be the nomination of
the various officers.- Only the Auditor.
City Attorney, City Engineer and Marshal
will receive any material compensation,
and the Mayor and Councllmen will have
to be content with what honor attaches
to their offices. '
Several names have been mentioned In
conection with the office of Mayor, among
which are those of Councilman T. J.
Monahan. L. B. Chipman. W. H. King,
A. S. Douglass, J. C Crome and others,
but there is no activity yet amaug the
friends of any of these men. It will be
some time before anything definite will be
done.
The Commercial Club will now proceed
with arrangements for a big banquet in
honor of the new charter, to which all of
St. Johns will be made welcome, and the
birth of the new city will be properly
'celebrated.

The performance of Sheridan's im
mortal comedy given by the Jeffersons
at the Marquam last night was a real
treat for local playgoers. It Is seldom
nowadays that we have, the chance to
see "The Rivals," which Is and always
will remain one of the masterpieces of
English dramatic writing. Its wit scin
tillates Just as brilliantly now as in the
days of our great grandfathers. It is
rare old wine with a bead which grows
better year by year. It is inconcelv-
able that the time will ever come when
intelligent English speaking audiences
will cease to lauh at and with Bob
Acres, Mrs. Malaprop, Sir Arithony Ab
solute, Sir Lucius and the other peren
nially funny characters of the fine old
play. Some of the richest traditions
of the stage surround It and In each
generation since, it was given its mem
orable first production in London so
many years ago, the best of the actors
have appeared in It. Not to have
known Bob Acres Is to have missed
something out of one's life. Because,
of the dear old classic Itself, and be-"
cause of the delightful performance of
it by the young Jefferson's and their
company the event last night was a
theatrical treat.
The most beloved of American actors,
Joseph Jefferson, played "The Rivals"
for many years with "Billy" Florence.
Mrs. John Drew and many other great
ones of the old days In the cast, and It
Is singularly appropriate that In his re
tirement his sons are keeping the pieco
before the public
William Winter Jefferson plays his
father's old part of "Bob Acres," and
while he does not In any respect equal
Joseph Jefferson In the role, he proves
himself to be a comedian of excellent
pith and humor. In no wise depending
on the fact of being son to the sire for
recognition.
Joseph Jefferson, Jr., Is seen as Sir
Lucius O'Trigger, and gives a finished
performance. He Is less like his distin
guished father in face, figure and manner
than his brother, but he has the Jefferson
voice and artistic methods. The "Sir
Anthony," q Vcrner larges. -ts notn'ng
short of great, while Folllet" Paget, one
of the best of our character actress, is an
ideal "Mrs, Malaprop." Blanche Bender
Is sweetly languishing as "Lydla." The
others In the cast arc not at all equal to
the requirements.
The play Is splendidly dressed, but the
scenic equipment is not commensurate
with the pretentious character of the
play. An audience which comfortably
filled, the theater was responsive and ap
preciative. "The Rivals" will be repeated tonight.

United States Exhibit Needs Money
and Exposition Committee in
Congress Would Vote
to Use It Here.
OREGON! AN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Jan. 23. Finding there Is an unex
pended balance of 535,000 remaining on
hand from the appropriation for the Gov
ernment exhibit at St. Louis. President
Hill, of the Lewis and Clark Government
Board, has recommended to Congress that
this balance be made available for the
Government exhibit at Portland. He
points out that the appropriation for the
Lewis and Clark Exposition was limited,
and that, because of the unexpected allot
ment for the Philippine exhibit, there is
danger of a shortage. Inasmuch as his
proposition calls for no new appropria
tion, but merely authorizes the expendi
ture of the balance on hand, he hopes
the proposition may be favorably received.
Chairman Tawney, of the expositions
committee, advised Mr. Hill that he heart
ily favors this plan, and will endeavor
to have the item incorporated in the sun
dry civil bill, authorizing the use of the
money for the benefit of the Lewis and
Clark Exposition.
Senator Fulton is also taking a band.
and will co-operate with Tawney to se
cure this unexpended balance for the
Portland Exposition.
