The youth, who is a son of the station agent at Peterson, admits that he was prompted to the deed by a desire to see the long freight tratn plunge into the river below. Five farmers who were arrested yester day have been released, though they ad mitted they had recently tampered with the block signals at Peterson and stopped freight trains that they might steal coal from flatcars. Some of these farmers probably will be rearrested. Great Distillery Burned. CINCINNATI, Jan. I.

Maria Rosa Florence Roberts Tomaia Florence Robinson Ramon ........... -Thurlow Bergen Qulrtco . .... ....... C Jay Williams Salvador Lucius Henderson Hunch Charles Kent OofVn ............... Gregory Rogers Chicot Clinton Maynard FLORENCE ROBERTS has at Jast found a- vehicle worthy of her sur passing ability. For years she had 'only second-hand plays in which to ex ploit herself. Then she secured a most lamentable affair called "Ann La Mont," which everybody anathematized except Paul Armstrong, who wrote it, and then laid the blame of its utter failure upon the woman who struggled with it. Later she secured "The Strength of the Weak' a meritorious piece, but crude and amateurish in spofs. With this she wn her way in New York after viewing; Mecca, from afar for years. In this instance it was the actress and not the play that was the thing and the hidebound metropolis foregave the fact that she was from the "West" and offered homage to her genius. For years Miss Roberts has been looking for a play, and I am morally certain she's found it In "Maria Rosa," a three-act tragedy translated Irora the Spanish of Angel Guimera. She presented it at the Hellig last night to a large but unappreciative au dience, and scaled the highest artistic pinnacles. The play doesn't call for millinery and imported gowns, and none of the men are in look-pretty clothes. Perriajs that's why the audience didn't respond as it should have done, or per haps they came expecting to see Miss Robertg do Spanish ' dances and play "Ia PiUoma" on the Ruitar. Those who fro in for that sort of thing; must have been in the majority, but fortunately there were a few others, and I think they'll agree that "Maria Rosa" is a truthful, red-blooded, masterly piece of dramatic literature and that the star rose to the fullness of emotional power. As she plays Maria Rosa, Florence Roberts may cease looking upward at some of her sister actresses who have heretofore topped her Just a little. While in some respects there are a scant three or four women In her line who surpass her in some certain Quail ties, in others she has no equals, and the balance that may honestly be cast up entitles her to look about her upon the dead level. She has gained a foot hold at the top. "Maria Rosa" Is not a problem nlav. within the commonly accepted meaning. The woman has no dishonorable past. She is torn to pieces between her love for the dead and her passion for the quick, but churchly rites are not violat ed, and in this respect there is no In delicacy. The story concerns the poor. Rosa and her people are hewers of wood and drawers of water. There are no fine gentlemen nor "smart" ladies. They are all Spanish railroad graders whose passions are the overwhelming, prima ry ones, and apparent as their pover ty. There is no great lesson sought) no mooted question is solved, but the play Is one which Shakespeare would have approved for Its holding of .the mirror up to nature. Miss Roberts- work in each of the three ants was a revelation even to those of us who have studied her closely. Never a gesture, an inflection, or a detail of business goes awry, and in her greatest scene, that which ends, she ti umbs the epectatora with br lnten- B she wrings the secret from Ramon more skillfully and less theatrically than I have ever seen a similar scene enacted, and she kills more realistical ly than Bhe did as "Tess," which I have until now considered the most powerful thing she has ever done. There are few characters Lri the play and so much the hetter, for they are all distinct types, and supply fine op portunities for all the cast. Those members of Miss Roberts' company who appeared last night shared fairly their proportionate share of the fcfon- ors. Thurlow Bergen gave a great performance as Ramon. I cannot imagine any considerable improvement In his treatment of the part. Mrs. Florence Robinson has a role which i must be a continual joy for her to play, as she is to the audience while she la playlnsr it. She does beauti fully. Lucius Henderson, as Salvador, sat isfies completely the requirements. It was the best characterization I've ever seen him give. Charles Ken t por trayed the suspicious, keen-witted old Hunch", to the life, while Jay Wil liams was the excellent good-natured boor which the authjor Intended Quirico should he. "Maria Rosa" was played for the first time In America at Seattle last week and is still in the try-out stage, but it needs little or no Bandpaperlnjr. As It stands it is a decided acquisition to our stage. The scenery is the product of Seattle painters and is merely make shift. Before the piece is seen In the East it should be adequately mounted, although the settings are of no great importance. The Roberts engagement closes tonight with a repetition of "Maria Rosa." The Zan-Smith Wedding THE wedding of Miss Elsie Smith and Dr. James C. Zan occurred at high noon yesterday at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. N. B. Ayer. at Nineteenth and Kearney streets.

FRALEY IS "13" UNLUCKY? Attorney Fowler Says "Xo!"

Owing? to serious dis agreement between tho partners form ing the corporation Known throughout tne Nortnwest W tlie "Rational Shoe and Clothing Company." with large stores In Salt Lake City. Seattle.

It seemed at first that the partners could not agree that the appointment of a receiver would be necessary, and that the closing up of the extensive business would de volve upon him. This would use up much valuable time, and Involve, per- Jtimpa. more or less litigation. The matter was taken to Attorney W. H. Vowler of this city, who suggested a very unique and clever plan for con solidating the stocks and turning them quickly into cash. Attorney Fowler's plan was to, have the entire combined stocks of merchandise shipped to Port land, turned over to the best known nnri moRt reliable auctioneer in the city and disposed of "on the block," at the people' 3 own prices. His sugges tion met with instant favor from all concerned, and Mr. J". T. Wilson, the well-known auctioneer, was selected to receive and sell tho vast stocks of these four great stores. Portland folk will approve the choice of Mr. Wilson, who Is Known far and near as a. busi ness man of sterling character and great energy., Mr. Wilson says he has not yet decided as to the metnod of disposing of such lmr.ense stocks, which total up to over Sloo.000 worth of men's clothing, suits, overcoats, shoes and furnishings, women's and children's shoes and wearing apparel and boys' wear. In so short a time, but promises it shall be done and In Portland, too. The importance or tne city is shown in being selected as the depot for distribution over an MKe City and Seattle. The out-oi-town stocks have arrived, niung just is cars, now being unloaded. When It was suggested to Attorney Fowler that the number was unlucky, he shook his head, smiled quiilcally, and tersely re plied: "Walt, and see."
