District No. 44, a manual training; department has been maintained throughout the present school year. It has proved a success while- the expense has been comparatively mall. Some of the parents In the dis trict were opposed to the department when it was first established, through ignorance of its real purpose. One father said that his boy could get enough exercise Rawing wood. Moat of this op position has disappeared, and those who opposed it at the first have admitted to rrincipal Law that they now consider It a good thing. This department is housed In a small building erected on the school jrrounds separate from the main build ing, the first of the sort to be established in a country school la Multnomah County. About 30 pupils from the fourth grades up to the eighth have taken In structions. Plans to FIia Sullivan's Gulch. To fill up Sullivan's gulch from its mouth bark to Kast Tenth street and make it 'cither ground for railroad yards or sites for factories is the the plan proposed, by f. H. Meusdorfter to the East Side Im provement Association. This plan will likely be adopted sooner or later. There Is considerable land In this sTough 10 or 35 blocks of which can be reclaimed, and will be reclaimed and put to some good ue in the course of time by filling up to the grade of the O. R. & N. Company's tracks. For several years there has been n question as to what use this waste land could be put, and the suggestion of Mr, Meusdorffer seems to ffer a solution to iiiw proDiem.

Small Bot'r Lono Trip. Morris Moore, Aged 10 years, made the long Journey from Saginaw. Mich., alone and arrived over the O. R. & N. Saturday morning at the I nlon depot, where he was taken In charge by the matron. The lad lived with his mother In the Michigan city for many years and since her death he has come to live with his father of whom he says he has no distinct recollection. Morris transferred at Chicago, unassisted, and accomplished this feat without dif ficulty. Will Imtrove Villa Avenue. The Im provement clubs at Montavilla and the people of Center Addition have started a movement for the Improvement of Villa avenue from the east side of Montavilla to the Wlbcrg road on the west.

Resi dents at University Park and Ports mouth are very frank in speaking of de layed street improvements on the Penin sula. S. G. Sibray said that It was the belief of many property owners that there was some purpose for holding up all street Improvements projected, as the men who foot the bills want the work to go forward. All the estimates for the work on several streets petitioned for have been so low that no bids were made on the work with the result-that no work has been started. In the case of Ports mouth avenue, the bid of Contractor Hart was 9600 above the Engineer's estimates, but the property owners wanted the work to go forward and signed an agreement that tiey would protect the contractor, so this Improvement will go forward. The Improvement of Fiske street has been de layed for the same reason for over a year. Mr. Sibray says that nobody knows why the estimates are placed so low on street work on the Peninsula that con tractors will not bid on the work, but a committee from the University Board of Trade has a committee out to ascer tain the cause of these delays and have them remedied.. All Excursion Tickets to the East and return will be good on the famous "North Coast Limited." the only electrlc-Ughted modern train from Portland to the East, Why not travel on the best? It does not cost any more to travel on the "North Coast Limited" than It does on any other train. 1 DUD THOMAS IS ARRESTED HELD FOR STABBING "LUCK" CHAMBREAU IN THE NECK. J Police at First Confnse Identity of . Wounded Man With That of His Brother. "Bud" Thomas, charged with assault with a dangerous weapon, was arrested yesterday morning by Detectives Snow and Reislng ' at Third and Flanders streets and was locked up In the city Jail. Thomas, following a standing quar rel with "Luck" Chambreau. stabbed and seriously wounded the latter at 1 o'clock yesterday morning on Fourth street be tween Alder and Morrison. Chambreau fell bleeding to the sidewalk while his as sailant escaped. Chambreau, who Is a brother of J. J. Chambreau, 'general auditor of the Ladd Metals Company. was taken to Good Samaritan Hospital, where several stitches were taken In the right side of his neck where the knife had penetrated. It was thought that the wound would prove fatal, but last night Chambreau had so far Improved that it Is now thought he "will recover. Sunday morning the police confused the Identity of the wounded man with that of his brother, J. J. Chambreau. Thomas, now In custody, is known In Portland as a sporting man, but he had not been In serious trouble previous to his attack on Chambreau. He will be held at the city Jail pending the recovery of the wounded man. HAVE A REAL GRIEVANCE Railway Mall Clerks Often Forced to Work Without Pay. Reports have originated in the Eighth Division of the Postal Railway Serv ice, the headquarters of which are at Tjos. Angeles. Cal.. to the effect that a serious problem confronts the railway mall . service in Southern California for the alleged reason that whenever a clerk becomes 111 and there Is no substitute his work must be done without extra com pensation by the other clerks on his run. It Is claimed that as a result of this system experienced men are resigning In large numbers and that their places are being filled by Incompetent persons. Inquiry In Portland develops the fact that while jio particular dissatisfaction exists in this division, there is abundant truth in the allegation that a great in justice Is done the clerks by compelling them to perform extra work without pay. For Instance It was stated that whenever a crew came In from the run between Portland and Pocatello, and the return crew was minus a man through sickness or other causes. If there was no substi tute available one of the clerks Just ar riving had to go back, and under the regulations of the department he was allowed no extra compensation, although the clerk who was ill forfeited his pay on account of hla absence. in his last report to the Second Assist ant Postmaster-General, James E. White, General Superintendent of the Railway Mall Service, calls special attention to the situation, and suggests that whenever a clerk Is sick (to be authenticated by a physician's certificate) he be allowed. If he can do so. to rearrange his runs with other clerks so that there will be no Inter ruption of service, he to pay for the runs made for him In money or In kind: this sick leave, as It may be termed, not to exceed 30 days In a year. Under these circumstances. Mr. White thinks, no appropriation would be neces sary, as It would merely require the au thority of Congress to put the recommen dation In operation. As evidence that no local dissatisfaction exists to any great extent. It may be said that at the last civil service examination for ellglbles In the Railway Mall Service, held In Portland, more than 50 applicants presented themselves.

It Is not an Important fact, but this is the genuine article In what everybody calls melodrama, for want of a better name. I call attention to the appellation and class of entertainment, because everybody will know what one means when one characterises . this plethoric show of the third week of the Baker stock season by this term. It is certainly drama that mellows you If you will enter into Its spirit, and it is interesting as a dime novel Is interesting, or as Action is enthralling to the senses when one is In the mood for it. The lesson of melodrama is that the good and true always wins out against the wicked and the false. As this is sel dom the case in actual life, all the more are we mortals eager to be fooled by the possibilities for human nature that the allurements of melodrama hold out be fore our mind's eye. An untrue man, a faithless woman, a liar, a schemer,-a man who does not keep his word, who "throws down" his friends, who thinks right Is might and disregards principles they are the ones who win In the world temporarily. And who can affoi to wait for the judgment day to square accounts? We all know this Is the flitting century of our particular existence, and thus do we yearn to imagine that virtue and far dealing and keeping promises will be in vogue in civilization some time. They will not, so long as a competitive commercially actuates this slick modern times, but we hope on still, and may only get even with the people who prove false by railing at fate. Melodrama Is a panacea for duped peo ple who find life sometimes -little worth while. The better and larger half of man kind Is composed of this element. So melodrama Is widely popular. Henry Pettitt, the English writer, turned himself loose to use a slang phrase when he put together "Hands Across the Sea." He used all the time honored theatric devices that he could find, made each scene cumulative and lead to a high-strung final line; lugged In situations when they did not logically develop; daubed In color by the potful; used a gigantic cast; provided a running panorama of scenic changes'; tangled up a plot until you would not have been surprised If the actors had come to'the footlights, and. like Mark Twain, told the audience to get the characters out of the trouble the best way It could Imagine. But, as I have said, the hero and the heroine triumph over their adversaries at the final curtain and they live happily eve after. Henry Pettitt has made a fortune ewt of this play, and It has amused countless people for many years. This production, meritorious as It Is, is more wide-class than high-class. No one can complain with justice of the acumen of the stage manager who man ipulates the play. It goes, quickly and Is not too long for a sitting. It la staged In good taste, and the actors all acquit themselves well In fact, in some In stances, make considerable out of roles that would not be noticed in less skilled hands. There were a few character bits that commanded the scouting of the story-follower. Although the play as presented will en tertain as a novel will entertain, and. by the same token. Is calculated to contin uously draw during this week audiences that completely fill the theatre, the oc casion does not call for critical analysis at this late day either as to Its motives or "the attainments displayed by the players. It is a large measure of amuse ment for, those who have never seen it, and an intellectual debauch for anybody. If human nature doesn't ring true throughout the screed, there are some notes that sound good, a few welcome oases of comedy, and I am Inclined to be lieve that it Is healthy once in awhile to hear over again the old. familiar phrases of the "unhand-me-vlllian," "thls-Is-a-dream-I-soon-wlll-wake," "you-scoundrel-and-sneak," "I-love-you-with-a-man's- honest-love," "bless-you-my-children" Btrlpe. It sairs us up and jogs our memories, and if we can weep a little, or laugh a little, while the mimic action Is In prog ress, the air is clearer perhaps, and so the world Is helped along. The trouble " Is that this play is too openly tricky In Its construction. It Is llterarily Immodest In Its naive appro priation of venerable theatric craft, and, therefore, it falls short of winning our unqaulifled trust In Its precepts and In cidents. We must stretch our predilec tions, and wilfully guide our Inclinations, In favor of believing the alarming anec dotes and sympathising with the dramatis personae. There Is difficulty In entering Into the assumed Illusion of the play. This Is an Intangible defect with a melodrama. It is felt but cannot be described. It is an absence of something that should be there not the presence of something ob jectionable. This defect Is partially glossed over by the technical skill of the company. The circumstance that certain members of the company are fit to d-raw a Daudet story, delineate a Pinero play, or execute a masterly Fitch scene, and that others are best suited to this present Pettitt plane of histrionlsm, lifts the perform ance of the hour, but confuses the onlook er as to the general drift of things. Pssslbly all kinds of plays are in store, and the idea Is to play no favorites, but the reflection is unavoidable that In this melodramatic clap-trap fine players are not essential. Joy reigned supreme in the audience. The old guard, and many additions, were on hand In full Sunday regalia. Father, mother, daughter, fellows and sweethearts were in abundance. Sousa's march, named for the piece, put every one In tingling expectancy. It is a great pleasure to see this theatre filled again to repletion at each performance with en thusiastic people, eager to applaud merit and In acute sympathy with the efforts or the players. The generous offering yes terday was received gleefully, and) the people behind the scenes seemed to mingle with the people In front as a large family would gather together. I have never seen Quite bo cordial a condition of af fairs, except when the first Baker com pany was here. Edgar Baume and Lillian Laurence took the leading roles on which the thread of the drama is strung. The former brought his fine voice and convincing personality Into his work, and the lntter was beauti ful and artistic, ret both roles war peo- pie of straw the author's fault, not the players'. Howard Russell bore off the honors of the performance In a comedy part of vigor and unction of which he made .much. His Tom Bassett, lovable friend and -vivaciously real, stood out conspicuously, and was heightened, by the scenes In which Miss Jewel Power added her appealing archness. The explosive strength of John Saln polls' Jean De Lussac, as a prisoner, when he discovers his betrayer In the last act, was one of the tense moments of excellent acting. The gambling heav en was a bit of pretty coloring, peopled with rapid ladies of the play who seemed very quiet. The queen of them all. Madame Valerie, taken by Margaret Neville, was Frenchy and incisive In the meager lines allotted to her. but lacked the requisite brilliance of finery that siren under such circumstances must have possessed. Two incidents in particular pleased me much the way Billy Dills tipped his hat when the aldience recognized his voice and clapped for him; and the way my feeling of gratitude welled up when I heard the resonant voice of that capital actor, William Harris. A H. BALLARD. EQUAL SUFFRAGE RALLY LARGE AUDIENCE AJTENDS A MEETING AT THE HEILIG. Rabbi S. S. Wise, H. H. Northup, Rev. Anna Shaw and Other Prominent Speakers Heard. A rally of equal suffrage supporters was held In the HeiUgr theater yesterday afternoon under the auspices of the Ore gon Equal Suffrage Association. A large audience was present ana great en thusiasm was displayed as the different speakers expounded the right of woman to the ballot and the necessities for equal suffrage, Mrs. Henry Waldo Coe presided and speeches were made by S. S. Gillespie, H. H. Northup, Ir. Stephen S. Wise. Mrs. Abigail Scott Duniway, Miss Gail Laughlin and Rev. Anna H. Shaw. The general trend of the argument was nega tive in character. Women should have TOM tEWISTOX NOT DEAD.. Periodically, Thomas Lewiston, a well-known local character, 1a pro nounced dead through some source or another, and the newspapers get busy forthwith in printing eulogistic obit uaries about htm. Yesterday Lewiston hobbled into The Oregonlan office to deny the very lat est report of his demise, and at the same time tell about the episode that . led to the rumor. "About the first of last November, in tha terminal yarda at Seventh and Glls&n atreets,' said he, 'I was seized with a sudden apoleptic fit, and while in that condition was run over by a car, which severely fractured my left ankle. The patrol wagon took me to the Good Samaritan Hospital, where Z remained about ten days, being out? of my head constantly during that time. Prom that institution I was removed to the County Hospital and was there 12 days before entirely recovering my senees. "In the meantime, I was reported dead and -burled, and obituary notices were printed accordingly in the local pr.ess. It reminded me of the time I went to the Philippines with Captain George W. Povey, who took over a load of BIT -mules soon after the Sec ond Oregon Regiment had gone there. Seventeen of the animals and one man was lost on the trip, and the reports that came back here and were pub lished at the time had me dead with the smallpox and burled at sea. :'I wish to speak in the highest term of praise regarding Miss Drain, the head nurse at the County Hospi tal, and her .efficient corps of assist ants. They accorded me the best kind of treatment. Dr. George B. Storey set my leg at the Good Samaritan Hospital, and words are inadequate to express my appreciation of his care. I desire also to speak In terms of pratoe of County Physician Geary and Dr. McCormtck. his assistant, who at tended me. at the County Hospital." Lewiston was discharged as cured Saturday. the right to vote because trusts, corpora tions and politicians are opposed to the granting of the right. Mr. Northup said in part: "Govern ments are of three kinds, monarchical, limited and republican. Ours ought to be government by the whole people. , Women have a natural right to vote, . We are told that women do not want It. If there Is one woman who wants It that is enough." Dr. Wis took for. an illustration of the good results which might be expected from woman suffrage the present press ing need for legislation against child labor. He said: "The President of a Woman's Club in a southern state lately said that she took no interest whatever in suffrage. She said we. women of the South, wish to please the men. And tonight and to morrow night, thousands of little chlld ren fn her state will toil all night in the factories. Which is the unwomanly woman, that club president, or the. Colo rado women who have stopped child labor and have kept in office Judge Und sey of the Denver Juvenile Court, the friend and champion of the children ? The question was once asked. Is Christ ianity a failure? Someone answered. We don't know. It has never been tried. Woman suffrage in- not a failure. It has never been thoroughly tried, any more than Christianity has. Yet we know that where women vote it leads to, more social and humane legislation." LECTURES -TO Y. VV. C. A. Miss Gertrude Metcalfe Talks on "Mountain Climbing" for Women . The beautiful weather of yesterday brought great throngs of people out oh the street, but it did not lessen the at tendance at the Young .Women's Christ ian Association "At Home." Between the hours of 4 and S o'clock many women and girls visited headquarters at Sixth ar.d .Oak streets to be entertained with one of the best programmes of the season. The quartet choir of the Fourth Pres byterian church proved a splendid musi cal feature, and the quartets, duettes and solos given by Its members were all of high standard and unusual merit. The many encores called for were given and the audience was most enthusiastic. "Mountain Climbing for "Women" was the subject of the afternoon's address handled by Miss Gertrude Metcalfe. Miss Metcalfe took the mountains of Oregon. Washington and California and pictured the beauties of nature as seen by the mountain climber In such glowing colors that all who heard her were anxious for like experiences. She has been an en thusiastic devotee to this line of outdoor sport herself and was enabled to speak from personal experience. Her address was illustrated with photographs.
