Rose Eytinge at Three Score and Ten
Interesting Chat With Rare Woman, at One Time America's Foremost
Emotional Actress Appeared With All the Great Stars of the" Old Days
TT-f soar. os
BY NANCY L.EB.
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.

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.

Retail Grocers Association will receive many
lnvitaltons from many different cities which
wish to be honored with their presence dur
ing that time, hut I wish to assure you that
in no other city will they receive so cor
dial a welcome, nor has any other city so
many attractions to offer to them.

Said to Rave Confirmed Statement
That City Attorney Advised the
Council to Violate Charter.
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.
