Bonita looked astonishingly lovely. Her

Archbishop of Boston Revives
"Closed Incident" With

Congress Puts Alaskan Prob

Final Decision. .
There was a capital little pony ballet
that put an astonishing amount of vim
into the way it did things and it did
a lot. The show girls looked 'remark
ably well In a series of beautiful
changes it made one dizzy to attempt
to recall.
The travesties on "Three "Weeks" and
the "Spring Song" were, by all odds,
two of the funniest things seen at the
theater for a long time. All in all. the
piece deserves to play to capacity, and.

Declares ex-President, by Refusing
Invitation to Visit Holy Father,
Violated His Own Principle of
"Square Deal" to All.
LOWELL, Mass., May 2. Theodore
Roosevelt's action In not meeting Pope
Pius on the ejc-President's recent visit
to Rome was called insultins and a vio
lation of Mr. Roosevelt's principle of a
"square deal" by Most Rev. William H.
O'Connell, archbishop of Boston at a
public meeting of the American Federa
tion of Catholic Societies of the diocese
In this city Sunday.
John Callan O'Lousrhlin. ex-Assistant
Secretary of State, who conducted the
negotiations between Mr. Roosevelt and
the Vatican, was severely castigated by
the archbishop.
The archbishop's general subject was
"Loyalty." In bringing up the Vatican
Incident he said:
"The cardinal secretary of state, Mer
ry del Val. when ho was asked for an
audience for Mr. Roosevelt, said, We
are very happy to receive him. The
Holy Father would be very happy to re
ceive him because he has been the head
of a great Nation for whom the Holy
Father has every respect.' He also said:
" 'When you communicate that to him,
please say we hope nothing will inter
fere with this decision by both the Holy
Father and Mr. Roosevelt, of seeing each
other, as for instance, this incident
which happened albout the Methodist
college to Mr. Fairbanks.
"The answer was, "oh, well, I cannot
enter into any conditions. The audience
is now off.'
"That is insultie. Mr. Itoosevelt.
When you were President in the White
House, did you stand at the door wel
coming' into your parlor or your dining
room the riffraff of Uie- street who hurl
stones at your head and insult your
family7 Would you do that? These
are the conditions, Mr. Roosevelt. You
were not strictly loyal, even to your
own principles, Mr. Roosevelt. You who
talk so much about the 'square deal.'
Mr. Roosevelt, you could have at 'east
waited until you came to Rome and
informed yourself well of the position
of this institution, and having done so,
if you really meant th 'square deal,'
which men now begin to doubt, you
would have said, 'No, Holy Father, I
come to you to stand for honor and rev
erence and the right and I cannot, as
an honest man, in any way participate
or have anything to do with the insti
tution." "And, remember, I am talking really
and truly on principle, not personalities.
I am talking as I would to any man.
Now, Mr. Roosevelt has always said
and given us to understand that he is
very fond of Catholics. We will let
that pass. We suppose it is true. If
it were true then, Mr. Roosevelt, why
did you dare insult the Holy Father,
the Pope? Why did you dare to pass
over the common rights of man to turn
down an affair for hospitality of the
Holy Father, the head of the great
Catholic Church whom we revere as
the vicar of Christ?
"Mr. Roosevelt, do you really love us?
If so, you lia-ve shown your affection
for us in a very strange way. The
Vatican knew perfectly well that its
intention wouUl be misinterpreted. The
Cardinal Secretary of State, Merry del
Val, knew perfectly well that at once
there would be oceans of vilification
heaped against him and Mr. Roosevelt
allowed him to take the blame.
"In the case of John Callan O'Lough
iin. Who is he? He says he is a Cath
olic and he boasts of it and in the
same breruh he cables all over the
world that the head of his church is
wrong and Mr. Roosevelt is the great
est thing in creation. That is the sort
of talk we are ashamed of. He will
live to see the day that he will regret
tfiose words."

"Wine, Woman and Song" is a, mu

type made famous in London and New
York by" the "Follies." It is a satirical
burlesque on the ways of stage folk,
society folk and any and everv other
kind of folk. Dressed to perfection,
with scores of different costumes that
do not show the vestige of a sign of
wear, the piece made a tremendous hit
yesterday, more particularly noticeable
as this is the first time this type of
performance has been seen in Portland.

PLENTY of fun, wedded to sparkling;
music well sung, made the presen
tation of Franz Von Suppe's comio
opera "Boccacio" Sunday night at the
Portland Theater, by the National uperu.
Company, a most enjoyable one.
The Nationals were brought irom
New York to the Pacific Coast, and
have just closed a successful season
in Seattle. It is so long since we have
had ooera so well sung here in English
and the sort of English that one can
easilv understand that the ottering
comes here as a welcome novelty and
should be received wieh crowded
houses. Last night's performance was
cordially received, there were many
encores, the costumes and scenery are
new, and the last note was sung at
10:45 o'clock, allowing the distant su
burban patron plenty of time to get
home and still enjoy his "beauty sleep."
Miss Aida Hemml, the leading soprano.
takes first honors as Boccaccio, the nov
elist and poet. Miss Hemml is. a favor
ite in Portland, having made a numoer
of successful appearances here in differ
ent theaters. The part of the gay Italian
poet suits her vocal style, ana sne in
vested the part with the necessary gaiety
and yet refinement. Her voice is in sat
isfactory .condition, as full and as spark
ling as ever, and she scored a big hit,
along. with Pecie Ripple, as Pietro, and
James Stevens, aa Leonetto, In the ser
enade, "I'd Be a Star."
Mr. Rioole has a pleasant tenor, voice.
which he uses with skill, and Mr. Stev
ens baritone i very " j ml.
Stevens sang one interpolated song, ieii
Her I Love Her So," and he rendered It
with such fine sentiment that he earned
three recalls.
The part of Beatrice, the barber's
daughter, was sung by Miss Kathryn
George, formerly a Portland girl, who
was assistant supervisor or music in
the public schools here. Miss George
has a fine voice, and she acts with abil
ity and grace.
The three comedians are - rank .friescn.
basso cantante, and a Portland favorite
as a talented signer; Maurice Darcy and
George Kunkle, who completely owned
the stage when they started to crack
their Jokes. Mr. Preisch acts the part
of a drunken cooper, and is the picture
of ludicrous gravity. He and his mates
sing one topical song about Portland as
a " dry town on Sunday, and when one
inger intimated tnat ne nad oeen nere
before and knew a side door where

plauded knowingly.

THE heavy odor of the Florida now
ers; a etory worked from the super
stition that once surrounded the cen
tury cactus; the romance that ever ex
ists between a man and a girl all these
and more have been deftly woven into a
musical comedy, produced at the Bunga
low Theater Sunday night, and which
presents a few different features from the
ever-popular musical play.
Henry 'Woodruff, debonnair, handsome
and gay Beau Brummel, is the excuse
for the comedy. The adventures of a
college man who makes his way from
the position of life-saver- at a Florida
beach to that of Prince, by the fairy
route, are told in song and plot.
Jim Southerland, (Mr. Woodrurrj, a
hard up Yale man, comes to Palm
Beach to obtain promised employment.
His friend is missing so he obtains the
Job of life-saver, incidentally being so
heedless as to wear his fraternity pin.
Virginia Stuart (Ruth Peebles), bets
she can make Southerland fall in love
with her and lend her ilia fraternity
pin. She succeeds, leads on the deluded
young man, then drops him like a worn
out glove. Broken-hearted, he seeks con
solation in the old gardener, who every
100 years, at the blossoming of the cen
tury plant, has the power to answer any
wish. He makes Jim a prince, gives
him wealth and power, but decrees he
shall die when the moon sets.
There is one exception; if any girl
loves and kisses him he may live.
Of course, Virginia fails in love with
the prince, this time In earnest, and the
two work out their own redemption.
Wootfruff must be an inveterate ci
garette smoker for he only may live, de
crees the gardener, so long as he smokes.
Woodruff more than makes good in
smoking, as in other ways.
While Woodruff has not a strong
singing voice, his imposing stage per
sonality, his well modulated accents and
careful diction, make listening to him
a delight. He makes a strong feature
of college songs and the singing of
"Boola Boola," with the forming of the
snake dance, will bring a throb of re
membrance to many a Yale man. Mr.
Woodruff makes the most possible of
every situation and, while he never ob
trudes himself, his is a personality that
easily outshines that of any other on
the stage;
Miss Peebles' singing was a most wel
come feature of the comedy, which
abounded with good songs, a clever
chorus and chamingly conceived sets.
Mr. Woodruff's dream, when his dream
sweetheart appears to him, is suffi
ciently novel to be appreciated. The bal-
I ance of the cast Is thoroughly adequate.
Lease of Company "Which Has for
2 0 Years Enjoyed Exclusive Mo
nopoly of Taking Mammals
Has Expired Herds Small.
WASHINGTON, May . 2. Conservation
of the Alaskan seal herds is a mat
ter to which Secretary Nagel. of the
Department of Commerce and Labor,
is giving close attention.
Congress has given the Secretary dis
cretionary authority and it will rest
with him "whether a certain number
of the animals are to be slaughtered
yearly or whether sealing shall be
stopped altogether for a time.
The lease of the North American
Commercial Company, which for 20
years has enjoyed the exclusive priv
ilege of taking the seals, expired yes
terday. To this Government the sealing In
dustry has been an important one
financially, the calculation being that
no less than $10,000,000 has been de
rived from the tax on the skins.
The yearly receipts have been large
but recently these have dwindled be
cause of the gradual depletion of the
herds from pelagic sealing. In 1885
the number' of seals estimated on the
Pribyloft Islands was 2,000,000. Now
140,000 is believed to be a liberal cal
culation. Experts believe that by the enforce
ment of a closed season for one or more
years or by material restrictions in the
number authorized to be legally killed,
the herds may be replenished.
From 1835 to 1850 the seal islands
were closed to sealing operations, the
suspension resulting in greatly increas
ing the herds.
The North American Commeroial
Company has a big plant on the seal
islands. It is not improbable the Gov
ernment may acquire the islands. The
oare of the people whose mainstay has
been the sealing industry, is one of
the problems to be met.
LONG ISLAND SHAKEN UP
As Clock Strikes Three, Buildings
Begin to Tremble.
NEW YORK, May 2. Hempstead,
Mineola, Garden City and other towns
of Long Island shook for 45 seconds
Sunday afternoon almost on the dot
of S o'clock. Crockery on the shelves
and windows in their sashes rattled
loudly.
Persons on their feet felt the tremor
sharply. An earthquake was not
thought of, but instant and numerous
telephone Inquiries failed to bring news
of any explosion.
RICH COAL HEAP ABLAZE
Pile Valued at Half a Million, Dol
lars in Danger.
ST. JOSEPH, Mo., May 2. Fire has
started in 150,000 tons of coal piled in
the Burlington Railroad yards here.
The coal is valued at $500,000.
The coal was piled up on wet ground
and thi3 is believed to heve caused it to
ignite. Although a large force is at work
fighting the fire, but little headway has
been made. Much of the coal is being
mpved.
NORD ALEXIS IS STRICKEN
Ex-Presidetn of Hayti Dies, an Ex
ile, in Jamaica.
KINGSTON, Jamaica, May 2. Nord
Alexis. ex-President of Hayti, died here
Sunday.
His death followed a brief illness.
His health, however, had been com
pletely broken down by the experiences
of the last year and a half, after he
was deposed and sent into exile.
He was a refugee here since the rev
olution of 1908, and possessed con
siderable property in Kingston.
