Companies, yesterday re garding the proposed passenger and freight stations on the i-ast side. The situation was thoroughly discussed and Mr. O'Brien assured the committee that he would do all he could to have a suit able passenger depot erected this year. In the discussion Mr. O'Brien showed that he was familiar with the situation, and remarked that plans had been prepared some time ago for a passenger depot that would have been practically fireproof, at least more fireproof than some of the buildings that had since been erected in the same vicinity, and yet there had been objection to the depot building for the reason it was not stone or concrete or brick. He intimated that the passenger depot might have been erected by this time. The frieght station also was dis cussed, and Mr. O'Brien conceded the fu ture need of such depot.

SIXTY-SEVEN APPLICANTS MANY DOCTORS WANT STATE LICENSES FROM BOARD. Examination Held In Rooms of City and County Medical Society Be cause of Large Number. Applications for Btate licenses to practice medicine in Oregon were re ceived from 67 doctors by the Board of Medical Examiners. This board is composed of Dr. W. S. Mott, Salem, president; Dr. Byron E. Miller, Port land, secretary; Dr. R. C. Coffey, Port land, treasurer; Dr. A. C. Panton, Port land, Dr. E. B. McDaniel, Baker City; and Dr. F. E. Moore, La Grande, the last representing; osteopathy. The applicants had been notified to appear for examination at the Dental College, but on account of the large number reporting, the rooms at the college were found to be too small for the purpose and the board and candi dates went to the rooms of the City and County Medical Society in the Medical building. Yesterday the ex aminations were started, and sessions will continue until tomorrow. At the close of the examinations the papers and other records will be parcelled among the members of the board for the purpose of arriving at averages, and when this work is done the board will reconvene and pass finally on the applications. This meeting probably will not be called for several weeks. The names of those who are taking the examinations, many of whom are recent graduates from medical colleges, are as follows: A. J. Peel.

Mure of Same Kind of Weather Today. NEXT to June 30, yesterday was the hottest day of this year. But even at that there was only .2 of a degree difference and the official Government thermometer at the weather bureau showed that 92 degrees was reached both yesterday and June 30. But In complaining about the heat here yesterday, think of poor Walla Walla, Wash., and Red Bluff. Cal., where the thermometer registered 100 degrees. At many other ponts on the Pacific Coast it was just as hot and even hotter than it was in this city. For instance, at Baker City, Boise, Ida., Kamloops, B. C, and Spokane, it was 92. At Roseburg a temperature of 96 was registered. Although the temperature In the Pacific Coast states reaches as high a point as it does in the East, no fatalities re sult from the heat here, while the death list In the East is large. Humidity is said to be the cause. In the East the hot weather periods are usually accom panied by a wind or breeze from the ocean, causing a great degree of humid ity. Along the Pacific Coast hot weather periods are usually accompanied by a wind from the north, causing much less humidity than in the Eastern states. Indications at the local weather office are for fair and cooler weather today in the interior of Western Oregon and Western Washington and for fair and continued warm weather east of the Cascade mountains. The following hourly temperatures were registered here yesterday: 5 A. M -..fi4;l2 Noon. ..J, Kt ft a. M i 1 P. M 87 7 A. M - 6R) 2 P. M.... 89 S A. M 7 3 P. M 91 8 A. M P- M !2 10 A. M 7.1 5 P.

Linn to Display Fruit. ALBANY, Or.. July 7. (Special.) Linn County" will probably be well represented with exhibits at the Salem Cherry Fair. County Fruit Inspector Roberts is now arranging for a display of cherries and berries grown in this county Mrs. Fiske in "Rosmer sholm" at the Lyric CAST OF CHARACTERS. John Roemer Arthur Forrest Rebecca West Mrs. Flake Rector Kroll Fuller Melllsh VJlrlo Brenoel .........Albert Brunlmr Peter MortensgarA.. William A. Norton Madame Helseth Mary Maddern BT ARTHUR A GREENE. LLADY MACBETH in modern garb, a woman who has never come to speaking terms with her conscience, and one who has never taken the trouble to consider the consequences of her acts, an essentially bad woman against whom the scandal-mongering world has no right to say a thing, yet who wrought her own ruin and that of her dearest friend to the uttermost extent. That is the kind of woman Mrs. Fiske makes Rebecca West. Those who watched the greatest of English speaking actresses Interpret Ibsen's complexities at the Lyric yesterday will agree, always providing they un derstood it, that Mrs. Fiske's portrayal of Rebecca West was the finest demon stration of the actor's art that has been seen in Portland since this distin guished player's last visit, "Rosmersholm" is one of Ibsen's most introspective dramas. There is practically nothing in it to hold the interest of the mere amusement seeker. Those who are looking for a good time only had best steer clear of it. But if there be they who hold that the drama has a higher mission than to make the unthinking laugh, as sure as you are born those will find much meat in this remarkable work of the Norwegian Shakespeare. We were fortunate, in deed, in having an opportunity to see Mrs. Fiske and her remarkably fine company in the play, in Bpite of the fact that it was almost unbearably hot and that the limited stage room at the Lyric prevented the use of the scenery and effects that proprly belong to the play. As an actress Mrs. Fiske is a solitary figure. No woman who has graced the boards in our time possesses such almost uncanny power of expressing the subtle ties of the human soul. Her introspection, her grasp of the elusive, indefinable, un catalogued emotions le so absolute that one who watches her playing is moved to wonder and to argue over and over to himself how she has grasped "this sorry scheme of things entire." As an exponent of the untheatrical drama she has no competitor. Ibsen might have written bis philoso phies, for the especial purpose of having her play them. She combines at once the expression of what the student has learned and the actor conceived. Re becca West is not a sympathetic sort of person. She is perhaps the most disa greeable character in all Ibsen, but she is, unfortunately, essentially true. There are so many of her that immediately a com prehending audience feels that Mrs. Fiske has got her solved complete. The scene between Rebecca and Rector Kroll in the third act is equal in suppressed intensity to anything on the English stage. This new Lady Macbeth is consumingly ambitious for the man she loves. She takes the initiative always, and, given her own way, would have made a mighty man of him. But, falling in this, she is yet strong enough to draw him to self- destruction with her as the only logical solution of the troublesome problem. A fine achievement Is Mrs. Fiske's portrayal of Rebecca West. One of many to which this wonderful woman is to be accredited, and even in July, with the thermometer striving to burst the tube, she le engross- ingly interesting. The supporting company, as usual whenever she goes a-tourlng, is composed of. the best of acting talent. Fuller Mel llsh as Rector Kroll leaves nothing to be desired. No hard, narrow, small-souled bigot could be more to the purpose. Al bert Bruning properly ranks next him in point of merit in the role of Brendel and Arthur Forrest is a most capable ana ef fective Rosmar. William Norton fulfills expectations in his treatment of Mortens gard, while Mary Maddern, a sterling character actress and aunt or the star, makes all that is possible of the small part of Madame Helseth. It is greatly to be regretted that this distinguished artist should be compelled to appear here under such conditions, for a matinee and night are all too short an engagement for the foremost actress in the country in any place In which she might choose to display her rare genius. Sometime when we get away from the present trammels which bind the Ameri can stage, we may hope lor more -or Airs. Fiske and her wonderful work in behalf of the modern drama. The company goes from here to Seattle for a brief en gagement, thence to Victoria and then to Calgary, where the season will close. Mrs. Fiske will spend at least a portion of her Summer at Banff in the Canadian Rockies. Last night's audience was large and representative and as appreciative as could be desired. 1S08 BUSINESS IS GOOD Shows Great Gain Over the Splendid Record of lp07. The phenomenal record of business done bv Oregon Life in 1907, whicn snows mat the company made greater gains in the amount of insurance in force than any other life insurance company operating here, is now being rapidly surpassed by them. Already a larger amount of new business has been placed on the books during 1908 than in the same period last year. The magnificent record for careful selection is being maintained and is at tracting general attention from Insurance experts. Not even one death has oc curred in the large membership of Ore gon Life during 1907 or 1908. The state is to be congratulated tnat tne nome oi flee of this company is in Oregon. PERSONAL MENTION.
