Blair T. Scott Drops Suit. An after math of the troubles between the Wash ington Life Insurance Company and Blair T.

Scott was accused of defrauding the insurance company out of a considerable sum of money after leaving here for the East, and was arrested on an embezzlement charge preferred by officers of the com pany. The case fell through on his pre liminary examination, and as an act of retaliation he brought suit for $30,000 damages, besides another action to re cover commissions which he claimed to be due him on account of business trans acted while he was acting as the com pany's agent.

Will Start on Tunnel First. The tunnel for the Brooklyn sewer will first be driven between about East Eleventh and the Willamette River. It will be longer than the tunnel for the Irvington sewer, but will probably be more diffi cult to build owing to the nature of the ground through which it must be ex cavated. The City Engineer has had a crew of surveyors running the lines for this part of the big seifer and have about completed their work. The contractors are expected to start at both ends of the tunnel and work from both direc tions. They have a year in which to complete the sewer. Death of an Old' Soldier.

The lower end, near the river, is for the most part level and well adapted to terminal grounds and fac tory sites.

Stewart Lurcner George Leslie John Tuppitt H. L. Williams Tom Grass J. R. Cuahlng Dorothy Bantam Mabel Day Lydla Hawthorne Bertha Shalek Mrs. Prlscllla Prlvett. Bessie Falrbalrn Phyllis Hatty e Fox BY ARTHUR A. GREENE. AN agreeable surprise was uncovered at the Heilig last night where the Stewart Opera Company sang "Dorothy." The surprise came- in the shape of a bass voice belonging and appertaining unto Bowman Ralston, who had the role of "Squire Bantam." Ralson was smothered In "The Two Roses." He had scarcely a look .in, but last night he came Into his own and proved the feature of the per formance. There aren't many such voices running at large and if Will Stewart In tends to stay in the opera business for as many years as he has already devoted to It he will do well to nail Ralston down hard and fast by a long-term contract. In "Dorothy" the Stewart people show to better advantage than in their opening bill, although the piece is not so elabor ately mounted as "The Two Roses." Per haps the odds as to music are in favor of the latter, but the principals and chorus sung better last night, and the comedy Is less inane than in the Stange Englander operas. t Mable Day, in the title part, gave her numbers good expression and the touch of the metallic which marred her singing on opening night, was not apparent. Her solo, "'Tls a Beautiful Hunting Day," was splendidly done. By far the most satisfactory number was Ralston's solo in the second act, Contentment I Give You." His voice is rich, full of expression and of un usual range. Bessie Falrbairn, who has seen sea sons come and go and, by the way, started her stage career at the time Will Castleman made his singing debut, and in the same company, was given plenty of latitude last night. She is a rattling good comedienne and as for voice well, she's In the prima donna class. Last night she was the flirtatious widow and with George Leslie playing opposite her in a "fat" part, there was no dearth of laughter. Carl Haydn sang "Love Me and the World Is Mine" very well indeed and William G. Stewart did "Queen of My Heart" acceptably. The ensemble sing ing was so spirited and effective that even the music teachers who attended, forgot themselves and applauded. A member of the cast who distin guished herself last night was Hattye Fox, a delectable young woman in spite of her penchant for the reformed spelling. She contributed "The Time Has Come" admirably. The big special orchestra, tinder the direction of Joseph Nlchol, is entitled to share a good part of the credit for this highly successful opera season. An appreciative audience was pres ent last night and the advance sale presages large riouses for the rest of the week. "Dorothy" will be repeated tonight when the offering changes-to "Babette" for Friday night, Saturday matinee and Saturday night. ST JEWISH PEOPLE GENERALLY OBSERVE THEIR NEW YEAR. Discourse by Dr. Wise at Temple Beth Israel and by Dr. Mill ner at Ahavai Sholom. The harvest festival services at Temple Beth Israel last night in celebration of the Jewish New Tear were well attended. A large congregation filled the auditorium, which was decorated with greens and Au tumn leaves. Dr. Stephen S. Wise deliv ered a sermon on the topic "Life's Main Miracle." In the course of his remarks he said: "We feel with Emerson we must pick no locks: that we must check the low curiosity of seeking to penetrate into the future. Instead of wondering what things may happen to us, let us so shape the things of life that they shall not happen at all, but will come to pass as a result of our own purposes. "If we vainly seek to unroll the scroll of the future, then will we feel My will Is helmsman to the dark, . I sit within a helpless bark. "But if we measure our strength aright, If we fitly revere the God In us, thinking, willing and acting a deity below, then will we be gladdened and fortified by faith that fate may affect our fortune or afflict our bodies, but it cannot hurt our souls.. "We face not the uncertainties of the future, for ours are the certitudes of self reverence, self-reliance and self-oonquest. If at the worst we cannot be masters of our fate, each of us may yet be the cap tain of his soul. Man is not to ask 'What will fate do to me?" but "What shall I make of fate?" For If once it be estab lished that this is the main miracle of life, what Aristotle has called the benefi cent activity, the conquest of life unto the good, the sovereignty of life to be the good, then new standards of life will be set up. Men will be honored, not for the bigness of their bank account, but for the bigness of their own account: not for what they are worth, but on account of the measure of their worth." Special music, under the direction of Mrs. Rose Bloch Bauer, marked the serv ices.' The quartet which appeared last night was composed of Mrs. Bauer, so prano; Mrs. Imogens Harding Brodie, alto; Arthur Alexander, tenor, and Dora Zan, baritone. Miss Leonore Fisher was organist. The same quartet will appear at the 9:30 service this morning, when Dr. Wise will speak on "5666, another chapter of Jewish history." At Temple Ahavai Sholom, corner Park and Clay streets, the ritual was read by the cantor. Rev. R. Abrahamson, and the, Rabbi, Dr. Winner, preached on the sub ject: "A Retrospect." He reviewed the events of the past year, and while on the whole, in an optimistic mood, he found that much has yet to be done to bring the world to here It ought to be. Referring to the physical disturbances during the last year, the rabbi was of the opinion that neither the loss of property, nor even the loss of life were the worst features. The most deplorable of all was the fact that it has proven how men, claiming to speak in the name of religion took it upon themselves to refer to the misfortunes of others as divine punish ment, thus misquoting the Bible and arrogating for themselves a knowledge not theirs. Men must be taught modesty. It is the seamy side of the ministry to turn to such events as subjects for har rangues. Would it not have been better, the speaker asked, for these same peo ple to praise the ready help offered by men to the distressed city and people? Is praise not more fit than continuous strife? Events In Russia were described, and the prospects declared dark. "However, the sun cannot always be obscured and freedom must break through clods of error and superstition." said the speaker. "So we find France in the front, for con tinental Europe. In the fight for the separation of church and state. Italy has also advanced In this direction, and even priest-ridden Spain seeks to throw oft the burden of the old man of the sea, or as the liberal newspapers of Europe call him the Black Man. In this country, where the state was free from church domination, there are many who would repress this pure liberty by seeking to introduce religious exercises In purely secular work, such as the enforced read ing of the Bible and prayer in the public schools mentioning God in the Constitu tion. All such efforts should be resisted by truly patriotic citizens." For the coming year the preacher ex pressed the hope that freedom will pre vail, and that error and superstition cease. Services will be held this evenlna? and tomorrow morning. ESTATES ARE DISTRIBUTED AFFAIRS OF MANY DECEASED PERSONS WOUND UP.
