TO HAVE ' LIKING-CAB, SERVICE
Southern Pacific Plans to Care for
Patrons' Stomachs.
Owing to a new time card on the South
ern Pacific, which will go Into effect
on Friday next, .and to the further fact
that the Benecla ferry has been taken off
service for a time, which will necessitate
the use of the Sacramento route for a
few months by the Southern Pacific over
land trains, it has been decldod to put
dining cars on the Portland-San Fran
cisco trains for three months at least, and
possibly to make them permanent.
The southbound train leaving Portland
in the morning will hae a dining car at
tached, which will be carried as far as
Goshen, and will serve breakfast and
lunch. The car will be switched back to
the northbound train which reaches Port
land after today at 8 o'clock In the even

plied on the Northern run.

Acting Detectives Jones, Seymour, Hell

sidered good that the plant will bo estab

places.
Mr. Clark and his associates have taken
J50.000 of the stock of tho concern, and
expect that at least $25,000 or $40,000 of

It must have been about tho 20th visit
that Lewis Morrison paid us at the Mar
quam last night in the old, familiar
"Faust." It Is an historic play, with
which Mr. Morrison Is as closely Identified
as Joseph Jefferson with "Rip "Van "Win
kle." In the later years many spurious
and false Mephlstos have toured the
country under the Morrison banners, but
the real simon-pure one was here last
night, and many admirers, old and new,
applauded him greatly.
There Is no material difference In this
production over those of previous years.
It is fully up to the standard we are led
to expect, and those who care for the
classic, and they are many, will be com
pletely satisfied with the 1S05 version. It
is essential to the theatrical education of
the present generation that "Faust" ac
cording to Lewis Morrison be a part of
It. Those who were not present last
night should see tomorrow night's per
formance, because It is a part of the
course.
Mr. Morrison, himself. Is about as usual.
He knows his part backwards and for
wards; and can be depended upon to make
the role just what one expects. The
Marguerite this year is Miss Rosabel
Morrison, daughter of her father. She Is
sweet and appealing in the role. The
rest of the company Is tolerable, and the
scenery and effects are all that they have
been In the past. Nothing better than
the quartet singing in the first act hns
been heard here since the "Come Back to
Manistee" effort in the "Sultan of Sulu."
The four young men -who sang "In the
Green Fields of Iowa," or something like
that, were encored about seven times, and
their rendition of popular songs In me
dieval costumes and settings was, to
say the least, unusual.
There will be another performance to
night. A. A. G.
Chickens vs. Terriers
NelBhbors' Pets Carry Trouble
to Justice Retd'ii Court.
Whether or not a chicken is a domesti
cated fowl was the legal question pre
sented to Justice Rcld yesterday and de
cided In the negative.
Tho question arose in the case of C.
B. Inman vs. Julius Epplng. Mr. Inman's
hobby Is fancy chickens while Mr. Ep
pluga leaning Is towards fox terriers.
They arc neighbors and both indulge In
their respective pleasures, and in this lies
the cause of the suit.
One day, tiring of playing in their own
backyard and being sportively inclined,
Mr. Epping's fox terriers sought the com
pany of Mr. Inman's chickens and essay
ed to have some fun with them. They
did. but their playfulness resulted In the
killing of 13 chickens, so it Is alleged by
Mr. Inman. In the opinion of Mr. Inman,
the chickens were of a valuable species
and were worth to hln at least $5 each.
He therefore brought suit under the stat
ute providing protection for domesticated
animals and fowls, and asked an award of
$65 damages.
After hearing the evidence, part of
which showed that chickens similar to
those killed had been sold as low as 50
cents each. Justice Reld sustained a mo
tion made by the defendant for a nonsuit
and dismissed the case. The motion was
granted owing to insufficiency of evidence
submitted by the plaintiff In order to re
cover damages under tho statute,.

Fles-el's Victory Over "Papa" Zim
merman, After a Hard right.
-CS OR some months past," said one
1 one of the boys at the City Hall
yesterday, "a bloodless strife has been
ensuing within the dignity of these walls.
"You know, Flegel In the liquor license
committee has always been In the minor
ity. As soon as Flegel proposed some
thing. "Papa" Zimmerman would line his
forces up, with the result that Flegel
suffered hopeless defeat.
"Monday, however, the fortunes of war
were with Flegel. He, with Albee, brought
up this resolution to shut up the com
bination houses in the North End.
"Now, 'Papa' has nothing but the city
at heart, and he knows that the treas
ury Is $!K0 short on tills year's appro
priation. He figures up the dollars and
cents, you see.
"Well, he tried to assemble his forces
as usual and fight the reformists, but his
little army was demoralized. Flegel per
sisted and won over 'Papa's soldiers one
by one, first Bentloy and then Whiting.
'Papa' gave up finally -and said:
" By golly, Flegel, you have turned tho
tide of "victors. For once I find myself
In the minority. I capitulate to a strong
er man.'
"But 'Papa' winked to himself and mut

What the Press Agent Say.
"THE DARLING OF THE GODS."
The Production Has Been Up to
Promise in Every Particular.
Much was said in advances of "Tho
Darling of the Gods." and. though Its
praise was extravagant, it has disappoint
ed no ne, ror it lias In all respects been
the greatest dramatic offering which this
city nas even seen.
There Is so much acting by Blanche
Bates that her work scem3 not acting at
all. She lives and breathes throughout
the piay as the maiden of Japan. From
the first laugh and prattle of Innocence
In her father s house to tho last note of
expiring agony, her portrayal J3 real, ter
ribly real, even to the point of causing
the beholder to feel Intenoo pain at her
awful fate as a sacrifice of love. To-San

kado, form but a link In the chain of
historical events that marked the period
of transition in the evolution of Japan

importance to Yo-San so splendidly done
ty iuss Bates is the character of Zak-
kurl, the Mlnl6ter of War portrayed by
Aioert pruning, nis part is so vcrv
strong that it required the. skilled hand
of Belasco. the dramatist, to prevent him
from dominating tho play Instead of To
San. Devilish and cunning, bold and dar
ing, cruel and yet patriotic he wields
power -with unscrupulous fidelity to the
ruler of his country, and utterly careless
as to the lives or loves he sacrifices under
his dominating will. It will be years, per
haps never again, ' before the citizens of
Portland have the pleasure of seeing any
thing like this marvellous production.
Tomorrow (Thursday) afternoon Miss
Bates will appear In a double bill, "My
Aunt's Advice" and "Madame Butterfly,"
two excellent vehicles in which Miss
Bates may display her rare and brilliant
talents. Seats for the matinee are now on
sale at the lobby of the Grand Theater,
and from present indications there will be
a crowded house.
