Rosebrook's Band Plays in City Park A BIG. interested,' enthusiastic Summer crowd greeted Rosebrook and his band yesterday afternoon at the City Park and listened to a fine musical programme. The weather was all' that could be de sired, and the picture sunshine, green leaves on swaying tree branches, and Mount Hood with its eternal snow was a memorable one, both to residents and tourists. St. George's "Coronation March" was played, with plenty of dash and swing of rhythm, a group of Strauss waltzes struck a popular note, and the excerpts from several of Donizetti's operas formed a fitting finale for the first part. Mr. Rosebrook's cornet solo. Hazel's "Le Secret." is a most difficult one. both in technique and management of breath, and Mr. Rosebrook as usual emerged with flying colors. In response to an Insistent encore, he played .with fine sen timent and sympathetic tone Nevlns' "The Rosary." The last number, the overture to Offenbach's "Orpheus," waa exceptionally well received and the crowd called for more.

L. MILLS. President OREGON LI HELPS Dozen States Follow Its Child Labor Act. LEAGUE PRESIDENT TALKS Sirs. Florence Kelly, Leader of National Consumers, Reviews Work In Aid of Women and Children Laborers. In her review of the work of the Na tional Consumers' League, last night in the First Congregational Church, Mrs. Florence Kelly, of New York City, gen eral secretary of that body, acknowledged the league's debt to the Supreme Court of Oregon for Its decision sustaining the law relating to the hours of labor of working women and children. Mrs. Kelly said the decision of the Supreme Court of the United States with regard to the constitutionality of this law had had the effect of putting Into force in Illinois and New York statutes that had previously been declared to be unconstitutional. This, she said, had resulted in better ing conditions among working women and children to an enormous extent. She also referred to the favorable influence the Oregon Supreme Court's decision has had on the legislation of more than a dozen states relating to such labor. Mrs. Kelly's talk was Illustrated with many Instances of conditions which pre vail in the Eastern cities among the tene ment workers. She also reviewed the deliberations of the last international con gress of Consumers' Leagues. saying she was humiliated to find that less protec tion was afforded the women and children workers of America than those of any of the other Ave nations represented at the meeting. She said In part: It was during my attendance at this con gress that I learned It Is America that la responsible for the evil condition! prevail ing; among the women and children workers in various parts of Europe. I learned that American buyers came from New York every season with ordera for vast quantities of embroideries and laces. These consign ments had to be ready at a certain time, as the fashions here changed so rapidly no time could be lost. As these orders are large, the manufacturers are glad to get them, and to nil them on time are obliged to employ people in their homes. To retain the patronage of the manufac turer, it is necessary for the entire family to work night and day. It was also humil iating to hear delegates from France and Germany relate their observations of the conditions among factory workers in thJa country. We had to confess in our hearts, if we did not by speech, that these criticisms were In a large measure true. I have seen people working who were so poor that when smallpox appeared in the family they'dared not call In a physician, reasoning that If the little boy lived they must have money to pay the doctor, and if he died that means must be had for bury ing him. I have seen people smuggle goods out of their rooms where there was small pox, ao that we had to call In the police to ret anything like a quarantine. We have today In our Southern States conditions among child laborers that are worse than anything in England since 1S47. We live in the fool's paradise that we need not take the precautions that aider nations have. How can we stop this evil? By Improving- the condltlona under which children labor and by demanding that the articles you buy shall have been made In whole some surroundings. Oregon should Indeed be proud of the position she has attained through her attitude toward the child-labor problem. You have none of the evila here that we have in the large Eastern cities, but those same evils are hound to come here unless an awakened, quickened and en lightened consciousness shall prevent them. It Is our sins of omission that have sad dled the Republic with thousands of work ing children. Unless-a determined effort is made, as 1 said, those conditions will de velop here, and It will be Just as difficult for you to cope with as it has been for us. Oregon haa done much for the cause of the working child. We are eagerly awaiting her future steps. Demented Man Arrested. Roaming about the streets and talk ing disconnectedly, a man about 50 is no excuse is nothing better is nothing sis L. SAMUEL, uenerai manaeer - v-iwa years of age, who said his name was M. A. Reives, was taken In custody last night at First and Madison streets by Patrolman Burks. The man seemed to be lost and from all appearances was demented. He had 10 cents in his possession. He was lodged in jail over night. Beryl Hopain "Three Weeks" at Bungalow Cast. Paul Verdayne Harry C. Brown Sir Charles Verdayne J. w. McConnell Captain Mark Grlgsby Will T.

Hayes First waiter ...Albert Duall SPT William Casey Anna Lillian Rhoadea Lady Henrietta Verdayne Clara LeMar Beryl Hope as "The Lady" BY ARTHUR A. GREENE. A FEW exceedingly erudite and schol arly persons may recall a shrink ing little literary violet, one of Dr. Eliot's Justly famous . "Five Feet of Books." written by a devotee of the Gre cian poetess. Sappho, Eleanor Glyn by name, the aforesaid shrinking literary violet being known as "Three Weeks." Well, now, they've made a play out of It. A play with so much heart interest, you know. It waa staged at the Bungalow last night after the regular evening serv ices were over. Sunday night Is a real nice Jilght for "Three Weeks," Ifs so calm and restful. If a perfectly good critic should write down here that the play is awfully naughty, the kind to wear your black velvet domino to and then be careful that the folks at home don't see you, it would probably pack the Bungalow all the week. But, nof We shall not. That is what the designing manager, with guile In his soul, would have us do. Naughty, naughty, not the play, but the manager, we have discovered your plot. Therefore we shall call your attention for a short time to other features of last night's exercises. Take - several hundred "soul of my souls." a rose bowl full of "beloveds." a heaping portion of expiring calf facial expressions, numerous pinches of fond embrace, flavor well with gurgles, weeps and adhesive kisses, then pour over a sauce of Bertha M. Clay dialogue, and you will have a nice little mess of "Three Weeks." Serve hot. It tastes like a fried Martini cocktail. There are more wicked plays In the world than "Three Weeks, "Blue Mouse." please write, but at that, I wouldn't take the younger children. Without any desire to be penurious with my Information, the complete and unex purgated story of this dainty trifle is slightly unconventional. It is not much like "The Little Minister," being more sensational. The play-bilto say so. The company interpreting "Three Weeks," Is fairish. Beryl Hope, who portrays Mrs. Glyn's hectic heroine. Is an emotional actress of more than ordinary ability. She succeeds in really making the part sympathetic and keeps It as far away from offenslveness as .could well he. She Is handsome and wears some stunning gowns. Harry C. Brown, who plays Paul, will probably Improve with age. He is too boisterous and needs to be told a lot of things about the kind of chaps real pretty queens kidnap. The scenic effects are first class. The piece will run throughout the entire week. The Pagoda," New Bill ' at Lyric Theater A DECIDED Improvement is to be noted this week . in the offering of the Imperial Company at the Lyric.

'The performance goes with a dash and vim that proves to be peculiarly delightful to lovers of a light, frothy, Summer show. In spite of the beauties of the weather and the many outside attractions the house was crowded and the 'applause was frequent and boisterous.

As usual Ed Harrington had the lead ing comedy role and as a burlesque Ger man detective had his auditors laughing most of the time he was on the stage. Charles Conners again demonstrated his capability as a fun maker and ran a close second to the head of the company. The feminine contingent made a good appearance and rendered the vocal num bers acceptably. The chorus was at Its best and managed to keep itself very busy during the en-tire performance. New costumes an3 an attractive stage setting added greatly to the enjoyment of the occasion. Song hits were "Back to Old Japan," "My Own Pagoda," .'Pretty Things Tou Say, Dear." "The Pagoda" will run through, the week at the Lyric and is an acceptable warm weather attraction. "INDIAN PIPES" ARE FOUND Peculiar Plant Is Still Growing Near Portland. R. Buetikofer brought to The Orego nian office yesterday a number of speci mens of the peculiar plant known gen erally as "Indian pipes." The plants were found near Qus Logus' place, two miles from the town of Sandy, In the Sandy River bottom. They used to be quite plentiful, says Buetikofer, for lately a discussion has arisen as to whether any more were to be found near here.
