AT three ecore and ten. Rose Eytinge, at one time America's toremost emotional actress, still retains all the enthusiasm and vivacity of a girl In her teens, tempered by the unusual exper iences of longevity that befall but few. I "was fortunate enough this week to take tea with (Lady Rose, as she is familiarly called, and was at once Impressed with her charming and electrical personality. In manner and poise she suggests the old school and this Impression is made more forcible by her temperamental hands and wonderfully expressive eyes. Particularly "were the "windows of the soul" notice able while reminiscing, showing lights and shadows, pathos and tenderness, and a fascinating and keen sense of humor, the latter attribute asserting Itself in an un deniable spontaneous combustion of the orbs or in modern parlance, executing an Irresistible double tattoo or ragtime move ment. Rose Eytinge was born In Philadelphia In 1838 and made her debut In Gotham at the age of 14 as Melanle In the "Old Guard." After ten years in stock, she appeared in 1S68 with Edwin Booth, and Immediately became a reigning favorite. Following several years' residence in Bu"rope, she again acted in London In 1S80. supporting Barry Sullivan and other English celebrities. In late years her ap pearances have - been Infrequent, as she has devoted much time to teaching dra matic art, and to her literary efforts, the most recent being her Interesting memoirs. In 1870 Rose Eytinge's husband, George H. Butler, was appointed Consul General to Egypt, where they resided for some years, when the distinguished ac tress became the center of an admiring group of the contemporary artistic and literary lights. Interweaving her experiences with de lightful anecdotes, she tell of her life in the Far East. She relates' that shortly after the Civil War, the Viceroy of Egypt negotiated with a number of the brilliant ex-officers of the Confederate Army, who had been left worse than penniless, offering them flattering posi tions. Learning that these overtures had been made. Sir Henry Bulwer, the secret plenipotentiary extraordinary of England, conveyed the Information to the Home Office, and as a consequence the plans of the Viceroy were at once frustrated by the Sultan of Turkey's veto. Unfortu nately at this juncture the flower of Con federate military officers were then en route. Their presence, however, was at once made the motif for elaborate feting, and while the Winter of their discontent proved a veritable Bummer of Calrene gayety. Later among the American arrivals was General Sherman, for whom a friendship began that terminated only with his death. He being a constant visitor at their attractive dahabiah on the-Nile, where he spent many hours caressing their small son for whom he cherished a sincere affection. Rose Eytinge during her residence In France was presented at Napoleon's court. Napoleon, she declares, was delightfully democratic, while Eugenie assumed an air of frigid hauteur, owing possibly to the consciousness of her great beauty and her plebeian extraction. "Her beauty of face and figure was widely commented on," said Lady Rose. "Her features were perfect, though they were characterized by decidedly oblique lines that suggested discontent." Eugenie, I am Informed was the orig inal peroxide queen, having created the vogue for golden tresses, a fashion which Is still unfortunately subject to spas modic and intermittent outbursts. During a Winter in London, the popu lar actress numbered among her friends Charles Dickens, Edmond Yates, Wilkie Collins, H. J. Byron, Gladstone, Lord Rosebery and Charles Reade. Dickens, she declares she found at all times un restfuL that his complexion Irritated her, but his comedy was exquisite. He loved to read aloud from his own works, and this. Lady Rose adds, was invariably disappointing, the serious situations which she had so admired falling at his Interpretation to attain pathos, in fact, assumed bathos. "Charles Read," said Miss Eytinge, "was charming. Inconsistent and eccen tric the qualities, however, of all men" (the latter added with the forementioned syncopated movement of the eyes). "He cherished a great fondness for Americans and prized highly all tokens sent from this country. On one occasion, knowing of the rarity of iceboxes, in England, I sent him a chest from New York, about the time that he received from an admirer 12 bottles of bay rum." The author. It appears, was more fam iliar with the word "rum" than "bay," and at once Invited all his boon com panions to a tea at his apartments, him self mixing the punch, consisting of ice, lemons, fruit and 12 large. Juicy bottles of bay rum. Needless to say, the result almost proved fatal and no doubt had repeated doses been imbibed, Charles Read would. In addition, have been an Inventor who would eventually have put the seven Sutherland sisters out of busi ness. Rose Eytinge is now summering In Portland, and recalls in her inimitable way her first trip up the Columbia river 30 years ago. "We were most fortunate," said she, " 'twas one of God's most glorious days, and I was reverently impressed with the towering pines piercing the clouds, a deer swimming in the purple waters, his ant lers boldly cresting his lordly head, while a splendid eagle soared through the azure skies." Adding, "Is it not an inexplic able truth, that immediately when, the hand of man touches nature ' Its beauty is irretrievably lost?" Upon bidding adieu. Lady Rose averred that she had no Intention of abandoning the stage, and added with a voice full of minor chords, "For the stage I revere as an art, and love as a profession." ! LANE INVITES THE GROCERS! BOYS MUST FACE COURT Trio That Assaulted Adams to Be Examined Today. Roy Antonlsen, Bruce Strange and Oil Martin, boys arrested Wednesday on a charge of assaulting Thomas Adams at Montavilla Saturday night, were yester day turned over to the Juvenile Court, and at 3:30 o'clock this afternoon will be examined by Judge Gantenbeln. Adams, who incurred the displeasure of the youthful trio by escorting a young woman home from a dance on the night mentioned, has been under the care of a physician for the past three days owing to the severe wounds inflicted by the jealous youths. At first It was feared that Adams was seriously, if not fatally injured, but yesterday the attending phy sician. Dr. A. W. Moore, announced that the Injuries were not as severe as at first believed. It Is now expected that he will recover and1 be able to return to his duties as a student operator of the West ern Union Telegraph Company. Adams will probably be able to appear before Judge Gantenbeln this afternoon and re late his story of the assault. The three boys arrested admitted their guilt but did not believe that they had seriously in jured Adams. - BLAST. WRECKS KITCHEN Farmer Demolishes Wall and Knocks Cat Through Roof. J. W. Parker, while blasting stumps on his farm near Pleasant Home, on the Mount Hood road. Monday, aimed a big blast in the wrong direction and part of the stump went through the rear wall of his kitchen. He was some distance away and thought it was safe to fire the blast, but the stump divided and one part crashed through the kitchen. The cook stove was wrecked and the building looked like It had been struck by a cyclone. A cat that had been sleeping in the woodbox was knocked through the roof of the room and landed some distance away, minus half its tail. Mr. Parker found that there was not enough of his kitchen left to repair and has decided to build a new one. Speaks In Muddy Clothes. LA GRANDE, Or., May 7.

Mayor- Calls Attention to Attractions of This City, Including Women of Uneqnaled Beauty. Mayor Lane, while in Jils most cheerful mood yesterday, wrote a letter to John A. Greene, president of the National Re tail Grooers' Association, formally in viting that organization to hold its next annual session in Portland. The beauties of this city, as outlined by the chief executive, are numerous, not the least item of which, as he sots forth, is that 'It has a larger number of beautiful women in proportion to its ' population, than any city in the world." The Mayor explained in hia letter that a number of these beautiful women "are still unmarried, and they are worth a trip around the world to see." He also displayed his poetic nature by a vivid description of the scenic charms of this city. "Its location," he says, "is one of the most beautiful 1n the world. The climate is balmy and Invigorating and has no equal. It offers the most beauti ful scenery, with its green hills, snow capped mountains and beautiful rivers." The letter ends with a most cordial in vitation to the grocers to meet here next year. The letter was forwarded to Boston, Mass., where, this month, the retail gro cers will hold their annual session. It follows: Mr. John A. Greene, President, National Retail Grocers' Association, Boston, Man. My Dear Sir: On behalf of the people of this city I wish to extend to the members of. the National Retail Grocers' Association, In session In your city at this time, a cor dial invitation to hold their annual conven tion In this city in 1900.

Mayor Lane will not apologize to City Attorney Kavanaugh for making the as sertion that the latter, during an open. Council meeting last November, advo cated a violation of the city charter In relation to the handling of public funds In local banks. This much Is certain, as already the Mayor has secured from an oincer a statement that Mr. Kavan augh was correctly quoted by the execu tive. Mayor Lane made his charge against Mr. Kavanaugh during a special session of the Judiciary Committee of the Coun cil, held last Friday night. At that meet ing Mr. Kavanaugh acted In the capacity of Inquisitor, and Mayor Lane felt that the manner of the legal adviser of the municipality was Insulting. The Mayor, therefore, when pressed hard to answer what he regarded as a question Intended to lead him into a trap, resented It. and asked the members of the Committee and Mr. Kavanaugh if they were seeking to locate violations of the charter. If so, he said, he was eager to take up that line of investigation, and he then made his allegation against Mr. Kavanaugh. When the Council met in special ses sion last Wednesday afternoon, Mr. Kav anaugh reviewed the entire history of the case, detailing the manner in which the Mayor's charge occurred, and then went into a lengthy explanation of the whole affair, from last November to date. He again denied ever having advised or condoned a charter violation, and de manded from Mayor Lane proof of the accusation or an apology. Mayor Lane replied that he felt he had correctly quoted Mr. Kavanaugh. and held to the statement made previously, that Mr. Kavanaugh had stated in an open Council meeting last November, that inasmuch as the charter provision relative to the loaning of public funds had been violated, it would not be harm ful should the violation continue. What Mr. Kavanaugh Intends doing. In case Mayor Lane refuses to apologize, is unknown, but he stated during the special session of the Council last Wed nesday, that he would "bring to book" anyone- who unjustly charged him with such a grave offense.
