BT ARTHUR A GREENS.
7-r BRIGHT, tuneful little musical
r comedy Is "The Isle of Spice," here
for the first time this week, and pre
pared .to entertain amusement-seekers
at the Baker. The piece follow
th well-beaten track ' of a doz
en other song shows, from which
It differs so little that the veriest novice
must recognise the humorous potentate
of an Imaginary Oriental country, the
genially wicked lord chamberlain, the
dashing naval lieutenant, who sings
tenor, and the soprano with whom he
sings duets. While one might wish "The
Isle of Spice" had some degree of orig
inality, there Is a certain satisfaction
that those who are responsible for It
have copied so well as they have.
A sprightly and good-looking chorus
that sings excellently well is really the
feature of the show, which Impresses it
self most favorably upon the audience.
The girls work like trojans and deserve
more credit by far than the principals.
The costumes look new, are In good
taste, while two acts are. properly em
bellished with scenery.
The principal comedian Is Sam Rose,
who disports right merrily in the guise
of the waggish old monarch and suc
ceeds in making himself solid with his
singing of a topical song, "The Goo Goo
man." Roberta Wilson, a sweet-faced
Ingenue, with but little voice, makes a
winsome Teresa, ward to the King and.
of course, fiancee to the aforementioned
Lieutenant Harry B. Watson and Harry
B. William?, knock-about comedians,
give a passable performance In team
work, and Harry Gunson passes muster
as the tenor boy In blue. There are a
number of well-known song successes In
the piece, among them "How Many Have
You Told That Tor" and "Peggy Brady."
"The Glorious Highball" also furnishes
Rose with a well-seised opportunity.
"The Isle of Spice" continues through
the week, with matinees Thursday and
Saturday.
"The Four Corners of
the Earth" at Star
ANYBODY dissatisfied with the
amount of show given for the price
at the Star this week Is mighty hard to
please.
Scenery, a small swarm of people In
action. Including a dash of comedy, com
bine to make up the boisterous melo
drama named "The Four Corners of the
Earth." Opening at a ranch in the wild
foothills of the Sierras, the young own
er's sister Is shot by the villlan, a rich
man's daughter Is kidnaped by the same
bad man, who. In company with one of
Mayor Lane's North End outcasts, drug
the girl, and the next thing the audi
ence knows the whole bunch, cowboys
and all. appear In the home of a Japa
nese nobleman In the middle of the Flow
ery Kingdom, are whisked back to San
Francisco, and finally arrive at the start -lng-out
place, minus a large number of
the small swarm of people whose corpses
strew the "four corners of the earth."
The rich man's daughter and her lover,
the young ranchman, come through more
hair-breadth escapes from death than
happen to anybody In the world off the
stage, but at that, the rapid action of
the play and attending bloodshed keep
the audience In suspense all the way
through and In a state of wonderment
as to who's to be the next victim of the
designing villlan and bis scarlet-letter
companion.
The company Is under the management
of Kllmpt. Gaxzolo & Cohan, who put
on "The Rocky Mountain Eotpress" next
week, remembered as one of the suc
cesses of last season, but the play this
week is equally attractive and doubtless
will fill the Star at every performance.
Carry Le Mayne does Braxos Lil with
much force and employs considerable
talent in making the adventuress heart
less, avoiding coarseness. Her pal. Oral
Le Blanc, makes a capital villlan and Is
suffilclentiy ferocious to suit the most
bloodthirsty. Jack Morton, of the Big
Bar Ranch, Is played up to the standard
set In melodrama, and Sidney Shepard
as the Jew makes of the character some
thing out of the ordinary, and catches
the house with the Inflection of his pet
expression '"Vat a sensation."
The rich man's daughter Is nicely done
by Josephine Worth, and the other char
acters. Including quite a lot of doubling,
fill In acceptably. "Four Corners." taken
as a whole. Is a rattling good melodrama
and moves with a dash that Is a un
usual as It is commendable.

PIONEER IS CALLED
Captain 0. E. Buchanan, Re
tired Steamboat Man, Dead
ONE OF BUILDERS OF CITY
Wag Identified With Early Improve
ment of Columbia River.
Owned Valuable Down
Town Property.
Captain D. E. Buchanan, a retired
steamboat men and capitalist, died yes
terday afternoon at his home, 32S Mult
nomah street, as the result of a complica
tion of diseases. He had been confined to
his bed since August 10, and his death
was not unexpected.
With the death of Captain Buchanan
there passed another of the old pioneers
who aided in the development of this
city. He devoted many years of his life
and achieved valuable results In dredging
the river between the city and the sea
He was owner of the New Buchanan
building on Washington street, between
Fourth and Fifth streets
Captain Buchanan was born In Ohio, in
1838. His parents died during his child
hood, and while a boy he served as a
blacksmith's apprentice. In 1859 he came
to the Pacific Coast, by way of the
Isthmus, and arrived In Oregon In June
of that year. For a brief t'me after his
arrival he worked In the mills and on the
ferries here, and in 1S62 began his career
as a steamboat man by running alter
nately as master and engineer of the
little steamer Eagle, which was engaged
In towing.
Later he entered the Government
service In the Engineering Department.
Until 1SS9 he continued In that service,
his efforts being directed chiefly to the
Improvement of the Columbia River
channel to the sea. In that year he re
tired from active business, and has since
been engaged In looking after his private
Interests which he accumulated during
his long years of public service.
He was a loyal and enthusiastic mem
ber of the Order of Oddfellows and of the
Knights of Pythias. For years he was
supreme representative of the Knights of
Pythias, and was known locally as the
"Father of Pythianism." At the state
convention of that order in this city
last June he was highly honored as one
of the oldest members of the order and
Is said to have been largely instrumental
In holding the order together in this state
during the early days of Its establishment
here. Funeral services will be under the
auspices of these orders.
He Is survived by a widow and two
children by a former marriage. Mrs.
Josephine Brunswick and Miss Rosetta
Buchanan, both of this city. Announce
ment of funeral arrangements will be
made later.

who left the city the previous Monday, it
is believed for Portland. C autre 11 before
he died said that he expected Buffard
would follow the woman and the Port
land police were notified to look out for
him.
A week ago Saturday night the two
men met at a livery stable and began to
quarrel, Cantrell accusing Buffard of
breaking up his family. They were or
dered out of the stable and a few min
utes later Cantrell staggered into the
barn again, badly wounded. Buffard
was following him. but when Cantrell
entered the stable, he disappeared, and
was not heard of again till his arrest.
Buffard has a wife and family here.

the Seattle police for the murder of a

-pHE GIRL OF THE GOLDEN
I WEST" will again hold her fasci
nating away at the Bungalow this week,
and from Indications It will mean a repe
tition of the phenomenal success which
marked the first week. This is the first
time in the history of the Baker Com
pany that a bill has aroused such wide
pread Interest that two full weeks of it
are demanded. In fact it would not be
surprising if "The Girl" would run still
another week.
The reasons for this unprecedented run
are three-fold. Foremost, perhaps is the
magnificent production which Mr. Baker
and Donald Bowles have given it, with
the intelligent co-operation of the entire
stage force. That production would as
suredly pHase the great David himself.
Yes. his "Girl" has been well treated in
Portland. The company is acting beauti
fully and then, of course, the wonderful
drama Itself, of which there have been
few to equal It The usual number of
performances will be given this week.
My Jim" and Salome
Dance at Lyric
THE BLUNKALL company is pre
senting a rural comedy-drama this
week at the Lyrlo, opening auspiciously
in "My Jim" yesterday afternoon. The
play deals with country life in the
deepest depth of backwoods Maine,
varied by a one-act Journey to New
York City.
There are a number of types repre
sented, which are common: to almost all
plays of this character the simple
hearted hero, the wicked villain, the
unfortunate girl and th nifty adven-.
turess, to say nothing of the comedy
old maid and soubrette.
Mr. Blunkall returns to the cast after
an absence of a week. He Is seen In
one of his favorite role, and does a
very capable bit of character acting as
Jim Mayne. Miss Howard sustains her
reputation as a sincere and painstaking
actress in the part of Kate, and Mar
Jorie Manderville is altogether attrac
tive in the soubrette role. The piece
is well mounted.
Nedra Lanscombe remains over an
other week, and continue to create a
sensation with her Salome dance.

CALLED TO IOWA COLLEGE
Portland Man Accepts Chair of
Dairying at Big School.
Martin Mortensen has tendered his
resignation a manager and secretary
of the Hazelwood Cream Company, and
accepted the position of professor of
dairying at the Iowa State Agricultural
College at Ames, la. He will leave
Portland next Saturday for Ames,
where he will at once enter upon his
new duties.
Mr. Mortensen has been with the
Hazelwood Company for 8H years,
serving four years in Sioux City and
the past 4 years in Portland. Before
entering the employment of the com
pany he devoted his time to educational
work, and since coming to Portland, has
made visits to Ames each Winter to de
liver lectures at the college on dairy
ing. He is regarded as one of the lead
ing dairy experts In the United States,
and is an Intimate friend of Secretary
of Agriculture Wilson and other depart
ment officials at Washington.
Mr. Mortensen takes the place in the
Iowa college made vacant by the retire
ment of Professor E. L. McKay, who
was a recent visitor in this city. His
engagement at present is only for the
Winter term, and the officials of the
Hazelwood company hope to secure his
services again at the expiration of the
term, but as his tastes are for educa
tional rather than mercantile pursuits,
it is probable he will occupy a perma
nent chair at Ames. Mr. Mortensen
will be succeeded as manager of the
Hazelwood company by J. R- Norris.
