Condemns to Perdition Doctrine That Men Are- Victims, of Clrruni- staiiccs All Iee Agents. Frank Ooulter, a manufacturer of musi cal Instruments and ex-minister of the Koppcl. lectured before the People's Forum last nlp-ht on "How to Bo Free and Happy." His theory of how to attain this aim of all mankind was not unanimously indorsed by his audience, and several of his hearers differed with him in most pronounced fashion in the discussion following the address. Oblivion to circum- stanccs and surroundings, absolute lnde- pondimce of nod v and mind and a con sciousness of the God-jrlven power In man was his summing: up of his method of at taining both happiness ahd freedom. "I quit the ministry because I came to realise that I could not preach for a salary without selling- my soul," he said. "I could not do that and be free, so I gave It up and now I am my own mas ter. I manufacture, I make things and at my bench I have learned more truths than I ever did at my desk."- Mr. Coulter referred to the people of this age as addicted to social and In dustrial foolishness and asserted that practically all the nations had committed industrial and social harlkari. "We shall never reach Utopia through industrial regulations." he said. "In their efforts to be free men make themselves slaves and in the Btru&gle for happiness they cut each other's throats. Men should know what they are before they try to bo free. In the struggle for liberty we don't begin with what we are. but what we want to be what .we picture our- selves to be. "I believe myself to be a conscious manifestation of divinity a son of God. The Almighty does not concern himself about every minute detail In things and lives-he gives us a consciousness and we 'can 'cut out the wrong things or not. Just as we please. It is up to us. and we can be free and happy, or we can be slaves and miserable. I say to h 1 wlth the doctrine that men are the victims of circumstance. If you don't like your en vironment, loosen your grasp on it let it go. The sophistries of intellectual theories about these things I cannot en dure. If you think circumstances are responsible for your character, you are weak Intellectually you are dangerous to the community. That Is always tne cry Of the convict. Circumstances Justify nothing, man Is his own justification: nothing more. Everything- Is srood to the mun wli o makes it good." Have the daring and the freedom to rub against the world, against conUltlons, without contamination. God lias given us the power to be free, ao he conscious of the (iotl-given power in your lives.

"How Baxter Jutted In" Is that kind Of a piece, and the company makes an ex cellent showing- In it. John Salnpolis blosBoms out as a real singing comedian in the role of Baxter, the typical "braah drummer" of Action. Me doesn't make any great claims to fame aa a soloist, but hla singing is better than that of many a leading man who does the musical stunt at top-notch prices here. As the Irrepressible Baocter. Mr. Sainpolis is always the play's chief reliance. A very agreeable surprise yes terday was the appearance of Lillian Drew In the leading feminine role. Miss Drew is pretty as a picture of Edna May and has a voice that will prove a very valuable asset when an -inventory of her capabilities- for staae success Is taken. She plays Nellie, the girl whose good name is smirched by the- village scandal-mongers, but who proves them all liars and gives the local tricks the mirthful' shuffle as the last curtain de scends. This young Drew lady is a decided acquisition to the company and the pat rons will be much obliged If her employ ment Is made permanent The most artistic performance of all is given by Arthur Mackley as the justly hated landlord. Arastus Winch. I was not prepared to find Mr. Mackley such a superior character actor and am quite elated at the discovery. Marlbel Seymour is certainly the original cute thing. Whether it be sins-lnsc a song, tossing slry persiflage or convulsing the &udien"0 with her facial expression. Miss Seymour Is one of the most Important elements in How Baxter,' etc., at all times. She is suffering from a badly wrenchod ankle, the result of an accident at rehearsal Friday, and is forced to omit her dances, but the plucky little woman gamely skips through the performance as if nothing in al 1 the world were t he matter.

"ivrielnlt-ht Flyer" at tin Kmplre. There was atandlngr room only at the Empire Theater yesterday afternoon, but many took that rather than miss seeing the well-known scenic melodrama. "The Midnight Flyer." which opened at that house with the matinee performance. The production ranks high from many standpoints, and It kept the tg audi ence busy expressing its mirth. Its' ap proval of the good things and its severe disapproval of the villainous acts of the two bad men in the cast. There ia always something- about a bis, well-stmared at traction of tills kind that holds the keen interest and stirs the anticipation ol even the most veteran theater-goer. We all wonder how the little girl la gtlng to escape from the clutches of criminals how the strlclten mother will find her loved ones-whether the villain will suc ceed in his foul plans to murder some pood man or woman. "The Midnight Ilyer" -is no exception to this rule, and every minute Is one of anxious heart beats and expectation. But with the intensely Interestinff story of crime, robbery, attempted murder and treachery, there is a vein of most laugh able comedy woven through the four eeenes which causes laughter to mingle with the tears. Bessie Seabri&ht, the soubrette lead who successfully enacts four distinct characters, and Sam Jack, who is the. black newsboy, keep things pretty lively, and their singing and dancing- specialties are far above the average. The scenic features of "The Midnight Flyer" are extraordinary and the vari ous scenes brought storms of approving applause from yesterday's houses. The scene on the deck of the steamer "Win Chester, followed by an explosion and wreck at sea Is most realistic, and was an afternoon's entertainment in itself. Another scenic success Is the cabin by the mountain railroad switch, and the ar rival of the "Midnight Flyer." As the great locomotive comes tearing down the track and onto the stage, just as little Nellie (disguised as Xick, a. newsboy) pulls the switch and saves a wreck, the effect Is most realistic and spectacular. If you want to see a show which will keep you stirred up every minute of the time you are in the theater, bo and see "The Midnight Flyer." There are -no op portunities for naps It Is the keenest sort of action from start to finish. The pro duction will be here all week and will give Wednesday and Saturday matinees. OFFICER HAS A CLOSE CALL Cajjtatn Reynolds rails Through Crack in Ice in Columbia. Captain J. J. Reynolds, of the Charles F. Beebe Shipping Supply Campany, near- ly lost his life yesterday afternoon in an effort to board the steamer Columbia, which is icebound in the Columbia River at a point about three miles this side of St. Helens. Captain Reynolds endeavored to board the steamer when the ice began to move. He was provided with a Ions pole and this' saved his life, A huge gap opened up and Mr. Reynolds fell in. The pole prevented his being engulfed and the captain made the ship with, nothing more than a severe wetting-. The steamship Aragonia again vent to the succor of the Columbia yesterday morning and succeeded in getting within 60 yards of the marooned vessel. River men are Of the opinion that the blockade will move out by Wednesday morning at the latest. The river is rising and with the warm weather now prevailing throughout the Pacific Northwest the ice cannot further hold out. The steamer Alliance arrived up at St. Helens from Astoria, at & o'clock yester day arternoon. The steamer- Diamond O has been engaged to fco down throuKh the BlOUgti and bring to rortlanfl the perish able freight. The river -steamer will leave down 4hls morning at 7 o'clock. The Alliance will sail for Eurokn tonight. Passengers will be sent to Astoria. For the first time In many years the Willamette Is backing up at this Season. With th- rlno in the Columbia there will be a sucTrien moving of the Ice jam and considerable damage is likely to result. For 15 minutes yesterday afternohn the ice above Warrior Rock moved steadily down stream and then jammed afraln. In the Columbia, . between Vancouver and the Oregon shore, the ice softened up considerably. The Jessie Harking made regular trips and a. cl.'i." il "ri chanite for the hetter is looked for within the next 24 hours. On the upper river the weather is much 'warmer and a break In the lea jam ia expected to occur at any moment. A. rise in -the river will break the Ice loose from the bottom and from the shores and tvIU "send a ruBh of heavy Ice to the lower river. The lee gorge at Hell Oate on the Upper Columbia broke yesterday mornlnir and carried the steamer Norma bodily out on the beach. Her. hull was badly dam- aR-ed and It will require a force of ship carpenters and the construction of1 ways to nut her In commission again. The steamer Relief and one of the wharf boats of the Portage Railway are In the center of the jam In the middle of the river. It ,is thought that they will be badly damaged beforo they reach a place or safety, "BOY SKIPPER" IX I'OIITI.AM) Master of Steamer Suveric a Cap tain AVlien 1 9 Years Old. "The Bov SkiDner: or.

But such Is the case and Captain William Shotton, of the British steamship Suveric, is none other than the boy who was signally honored by the eoara of i rude or Londan for safely navigating the old ship Trafalgar to a port of safety after all her officers had died of fever.
