X 'ounty to Have Boulevards. The
Peninsular Development League has re
vived opposition to the city taking over
the boulevards on the Peninsula, and
wants the county to retain possession and
title to them. At a meeting Wednesday
night it was decided to ask the County
Commissioners to retain possession of the
boulevards and not turn them over to
the city as proposed by the Mayor and i
Council. It was the sense of the league
that to pave the wide boulevards with
hard-eurface improvements would result
in confiscation of the small home prop
erty. The league indorsed the movement
to establish a public service commission
and adopted plans to keep up- the agita
tion for such a commission.

the aged longshoreman who fell from

fell 25 feet, landing on some logs, his
head striking on a piling. His skull was
fractured and several of his ribs broken.
The accident was witnessed by several
of his fellow-laborers, who lowered a rope
to rescue him. After lifting him almost
to safety the rope slipped and the un
fortunate man was dropped again.

Slippery Pavements Are Problem.
Mayor Simon had under consideration
yesterday the question of how to help the
horses that have to haul heavy loads
over the Iced streets. A good deal of
trouble has been encountered the past
few days on this account. It was found
inadvisable to endeavor to sprinkle saw
dust over some of the principal streets,
end salt is prohibitive on account of
price. Superintendent Donaldson, of the
Street-Cleaning Department, advised that
no action be taken, as he thinks the
weather will moderate 60on.

REVIVAL PLANS CHANGED
Seattle Minister, Jtev. M. A. Mat.
thews, Can't Corhe Till February.
On account of a mistake on the part of
the committee of the Presbyterian denom
ination in charge of arrangements for the
proposed evangelistic services to be held
in the First Presbyterian Church, the
news that Dr. M. A. Matthews is coming
next week to begin the services was
found to be Incorrect. Instead, it is
learned that he will not be able to come
till some time in February.
Plans had been made by the Portland
committee for the meetings here next
week until the mistake was discovered.
When Dr. W. H. Foulkes' telephoned to
Dr: Matthews during the early part of
the week about the meetings, he was
surprised to learn that the Seattle evan
gelist was not planning to come to Port
land till February.
Plans are still being made for the meet
ings and it is expected the campaign will
be one of the greatest religious revivals
held here. Dr. Matthews will be in Port
land about 10 days and will speak every
night in the First Presbyterian Church.
BOARD MAKES NEW RECORD
Heating- System Provided for Cold
Spell in Schools.
A fine record "has just been made
by the Board of Education. Because
of thorough preparation, none of the
schools were forced to close during
the long- cold spell. Everything worked
splendidly, and none of the thousands
of pupils was obliged to lose any time
because of closed rooms. Anticipating
unusually cold weather, the Board took
the precaution to have all of the build
ings repaired and in first-class condi
tion. "We got through the cold weather
fine. said City' Superintendent Rigler
yesterday. "None of the buildings were
closed, as all had been put in readiness
for cold spells. There were no closed
schools on account of the severe weath
er." District School Clerk Thomas has Is
sued the notifications to the taxpayers,
men and women, who are entitled to
vote at the school meetings for the
elections to be held February 2 in re
gard to the proposed bond issue of
$.150,000 bonds for the new high school
on the WestSlde.

VAUDEVILLE'S MANSFIELD
IS ACTOR JULIUS STEGER
"Fifth Commandment, " Played in Portland This Week, Is Real Drama
of Pathos, Critics Declare.
BT LEONE CASE BAEJR.
T the Orpheum this week, there is
a "real live drama in vaudeville'
that would be a headliner on any
stage, even were there nothing else
billed. Bo well, in fact, has Julius Steger
made good in his playlet, "The Fi f th
Commandment" that he is scheduled to
stay one more week.
Mr. Steger has undoubtedly laid claim
to the title hitherto unworn as a mis
sionary of the vaudeville art. He has
succeeded in uplifting the morals of the
variety stage and by the Missourlan
method of "showing" both the patrons
and the man behind the boxoffice re
ceipts that true art and the highest
character of drama have a permanent
and valued "place in the realms of vaude
ville. Mr. Steger's play is an offering that &
little less than a veritable sensation.
Press, public and the clergy have taken
time to discuss it.
He has rightfully earned for himself
the sobriquet, "Richard Mansfield of
Vaudeville," accomplishing in exactly
24 minutes what many other big men
take hours to do reach the heart and
strike home a great moral lesson. A true
artist indeed is he.
"The Fifth Commandment" is today
the most highly spoken of vaudeville play
before the American public. The story
of the playlet runs as follows:
A poor musician won the heart of a rich
girl, married, her and left her in her father's
home while he went abroad and made a
name for himself. He learned, after a year
in which his letters were unanswered, that
she had died. Her father is an Intolerant
rich man, with a hatred for music, and a
singular love for hia lost daughter and
for the maiden child of that daughter, of
whose existence- the father was never ap
praised. The musician drifts back to New
York 2J years after, and the daughter
hears him singing in the park to the ac
companiment of a harp. She Invites him
to her home because it is her birthday,
and she knows she can prevail upon her
grandfather to permit the Intrusion. There
is a scene between the musician and the
father of the woman who died at the birth
of tha girl. 9
Mr. Steger faithfully expresses the
character of the artist, and his dramatic
ability is above par. His beautiful sink
ing voice is heard to advantage as
sweetly clear and resonant an in years
agone.
The foundation for the play was
adapted by Mr. Steger from Ludwig
Anzengruber's "The Fourth Command
ment," written over half a century ago
in Austria. For more than 60 years the
theme has been beloved by Austrlans
and has furnished the nucleus for many
plays, including "The Music Master.."
Julius Steger was born in Vienna, and
he. too, loved the old play. In the
original form a man of standing is con
victed of murder and returns to his home
after many years, as an ex-convict, Mr.
Steger did not like the criminal features
of the story, so he substituted a com
poser, and put in a song that he be
lieved would hold audiences. And it
does hold them. '
Mr. Steger is dramatic, even in h?s
dressing-room, and every word is punc
tuated with shrugs, smiles and waves of
his hands.
Speaking of his views of the eleva
tion of the stage, he said:
"In all America there has been in
recent years a decided revolt against
suggestive and immoral plays.
X'No matter of what nature, whether
of the lingerie brand, with ragtime and
plaint filed In the Circuit Court yesterday
tells of a lonesome feeling amounting to
mental anguish which came - over her
when Gustave William Pfunder remained
away from home nights. He has become
a gross drunkard, she asserts. She mar
ried him September 23, 1903, and they
have one child, four months old.
Mlnne Bove has filed a divorce suit
against Joseph Bove, whom she marjie
in Minnesota, November 18. 1903. Tney
luve one child, of which she desires ; the
custody. .
&HOEMAKER ESTATE IS $.29,000

risque songs served on the side, or the
more pretentious productions, there are
all too many on the stage today. Stage
lessons have a value of extreme real
ity, and every play, in words and ac
tion, should influence for the better,
and not, as is too often the case, serve
as a medium for commercial barter
and exchange, so much amusement for
its value in money.
"The public taste Is becoming more
elevated. Vaudeville audiences are as
susceptible as any others to the finer
impulses, to touches of human sympa
thy, len and women who And joy in
slapstick comedy and the dumpings of
melodramatic turns and off-color songs
have the same red blood in their veins
as have other men and women, and
they appreciate the laundrying process
of their stage ideals as much as any
one. I emphatically believe in high
class drama in vaudeville, and while it
is an innovation foreign to the gener
ally acepted Idea of variety, still it's
going to make good mark my words."
It was in New York that Mr. Steger
first began his operatic career, singing
at all the leading theaters- and gaining
an immense following. The season of
1893-1894 he first came into promi
nence, acompanylng Marie. Tempest as
her principal support in "The Algerian"
and "The Syncing Master."
In 1898-1900 Mr. Steger did ' admirable
work in "A Dangerous Maid" and "The
(Man in the Moon. Jr." He was then
leading man in "Foxy Quiller" and "The
Billionaire." He spent one season with
Marie Cahill in "Xancy Brown," and for
two years was one of the notable sup
port that surrounded Lew Fields in "It
Happened in Nordland."
This Is Mr. Steger's first trip to the
Northwest. ,
Next week he will be seen in "The
Way to the Heart." -written by Ruth
Comfort Mitchell.
