Coaocittee Calls on Manager O'Brtex.
A committee from the East Side Busi

JCewhall, W. L. Morgan and H. Mitchell,
held a conference with General Manager
J. P. O'Brien, of the Southern Pacific and
O. R. & N. 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.
Ordinance Regulating Stables.
Plumbing Inspector Hey yesterday com
pleted the draft of an ordinance regulat-
ng livery stables, which he will have in

He regards stables, as most of them are

proposed ordinance prescribes sanitary
lines for all such buildings. It will prob
ably be made as an amendment to the
building ordinance.

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. Mary A. Smith, Jotin D. Lelth.

Hot, Jmt ljliich Worse
in Other Places
Thermometer Reaches 82, Equaling-
Hottest Day of the Year.
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:

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.

Change In Rural Delivery.
Information has just - been received
from the Postoffice Department that the
rural free delivery route from Orient,
near Gresham. will be transferred to Bor
ing on August 1. David Wolfe, the car
rier has been ordered to report to the
Postmaster at Boring for duty on that
date. The transfer doubtless means the
discontinuance of the Orient office, al
though no such notice has been received.
If it is not discontinued. Postmaster
Campbell will probably ' ask to be re
lieved as the loss of the rural route will
leave him less than a dozen families to
serve.
