NEW YORK, June 6. (Special.) True
!ttle American that the is. Miss Eleanor
Butler Alexander, who. on June 20, be
somee the bride of Theodore Roosevelt,
tr.t is having her wedding gown made
aere in New York, not many miles from
ihe Waldorf-Astoria, by one of our most
laflhionable modistes. Her entire trous
ieau is being prepared in this country,
ilthough many ideas have, of course.
Been procured abroad, and her brides
maids frocks were painted in Paris.
Miss Alexander's wedding dress -natur-illy
is of white satin of the softest va
riety, not the old-fashioned kind brides
Mice affected,, but more like what the
Krench now call satin souple.
Dress to Be Simple. . .
The dress is to be very simple and
girlish, and will depend on its long,
graceful lines for much of Its charm, al
though some wonderful eld family point
lace which her mother, Mrs. Henry Ad
Sfson Alexander, treasures highly because
of associations and traditions, will adorn
It. The lace will be used on the bodice
and sleeves.
Following the fashion of English brides.
Miss Alexander will wear a tulle veil
which will be fastened with the usual
orange blossoms, but nothing stiff or
conventional will be attempted with the
dowers just a few sprays will be used
In the most artless and natural manner.
Her attendants will be Mrs. Snowden
A. .Kahnestock, who will be her matron
Df honor, and Mr. Roosevelt's sister. Miss
Kthel Roosevelt, the Misses Harriet and
Janetta Alexander, the bride's cousins.
Miss Jessie Millington Drake and Miss
Jean Walters Delano will serve as brides
maids. Their gowns are being made in
the same establishment on Thirty-fourth
fct root, where the bride's gown is being
built.
Has Old-Kasliioned Ideas.
Miss Alexander has some of the old
fathioned ideas regarding her corbeille
de noces and no French bride, who prides
herself on her linen could have a more
generous supply than she has.
The wedding will take place at the
Fifth-Avenue Presbyterian Church on
June '20 at 4 o'clock and will be followed
by a reception-at tho home of the bride's
uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Charles
B. Alexander, No. 4- West Fifty-eighth
Btreet.
GROCERIES WILL CLOSE
Association to Follow Ticneral Ei
aniple and Asks Outsiders to Join.
Following the example set by the banks.
t!ie members of the Portland Association
of Retail Grocers have agreed to "close
shop" Thursday at noon.
As there tre a number of jcrrocera in
Tortlarid. who are not members of the
association, it. is trusted by the members1
that, in order to make the closing: move
ment unanimous, nil merchants close
their doors at noon Thursday. It is felt
by those interested that if the Retail
Merchants' Association takes action in
the matter, early closing will practically
be , realized.

WASHINGTON. June 6. The House

been withdrawn on account of their
coal deposits, are still valuable for ag
riculture. Under the terms of the bill,

New, Bills Open at the
Vaudeville Houses
Orpheum.
EXCELLENT and quiet to one'a lik
ing is the list of delights on the
Orpheum bill this week. It is what may
easily be called an all-star programme,
for there's not one. number that doesn't
win a blue ribbon.
There are a trio of headline acts, each
so good In itself that it might grace
the top of any bill. First there's the
Finneys two beautiful young women,
who are "champeen" swimmers, and
whose offering consists of a most pre
tentious exhibition of diving, swimming
and spectacular feats under water.
These aquatic maidens with the appro
priate name of Finney, since they are
palpably of that tribe, would be a fixture
for a beach resort. Nature has been
more than liberal with them, and they
are endowed with youth, charm and
lithe, limber bodies. In a huge glass
tank filled with water the two mer
maids disport in a maner that would
make a real fish sit up and take no
tice. These two fish are destined never
to get the hook, for the scales will al
ways tip in their favor. Tou could
have heard the proverbial pin drop any
where in the house during their act
it's so novel, so beautiful and so spec
tacular. If you failed to see Harry Lauder
last Fall, rejoice now and be glad, for
there's a bonny Scotchman at the Orph
eum this week who can give little
Harry cards and spades and then win.
His name is Peter Donald, and he was
here last year, with his lamp-post and
his charming "wee wifie," Meta Carson,
both of whom assist. Peter's songs are
of the sort that would make a petri
fied mummy yell "Hoot mon," and he
Just can't make his feet behave. Their
offering is entitled "Alex McLean's
Eream," in which the gentleman from
the land of the heather Introduces him
self on his way home after too much
celebration escorting a lamp-post. He
sings his inimitable Scotch songs in a
delicious thick dialect and tells canny
jokes which, marvel of Scotch humor,
actually have perceptible points.
Then there's Zertho, a clown, who pre
sents about 40 canine comedians. Now
adays, so perfected have dog acts be
come, that one must be away above the
average to arouse more than gentle in
terest. When one realizes then that
the audience rocked in howls of mirth
and gratified pleasure throughout this
offering of Zertho's. then an idea of
its worth may be gained. Zertho de
serves a very great deal of credit for
the excellent training and discipline
displayed and the pups well, every
body loves a pup and when 40 of them
gat together and do everything but talk.
well, it's worth while.
Agnes' Mahr.-a vivacious and piquant
maiden, who styles herself the "Amer
ican Tommy Atkins," introduces a series
of toe-dancing that are both novel and
intricate. Her act is costumed beau
tifully. "Wining on Wind" Is the title
of a farce comedy-playlet which Lewis
McCord and his company presents. The
story tells of a young man who en
deavors to pass himself off to his
fiance's family, as a man of wealth and
position. He borrows the furnished
apartments of an obliging friend and
invites his bride-to-be and her folks to
visit him. The sudden return of the
owner, and various other complications,
keep the young man busy. The act
drags a bit in spots, and at times ap
proaches the halting, infirm period, but
scrambles bravely through, and lands
high and dry in a burst of applause.
None of the players in "Winning on
Wind" are above the ordinary, unless
It's Mr. McCord himself.
La Toy Brothers are genuinely funny
comedy acrobats at least one of them,
the clown. Is a riot all by himself.
Their bits of gymnastic work are new
and novel, and the comedy element is
there. '
A banjo soloist, who is different from
the others', is R. J. Hamilton. His in
terpretation of "Old Kentucky Home,"
illustrated with colored views that's
no joke was especially good.
As always, the orchestra came in for
a large share of the praise.
The Grand.
THOSE interested in horses will finB
that the bill at the Grand Theater
this week will interest them especially.
Three of the acts have that animal as
the principal subject. Mme. Bedini has
two of the most superb "blue ribbon
winners that have ever been seen on
a local stage. The whole act is a study
in black and white and the madame
has trained her actors well.
Haverly and Wells appear as Mr.
Piker and Miss Kidder and tell stories
of the race track.. Their act is full of
clever pater and puns. The other
"horsey act is that of Dick Crolius, the
original "Biff" in "Peaches." and his
company. Croiius is as much of a
scream as ever in his character of
Shorty, tbut and trainer. The company
of three people and an obliging stage
hand is good and the finish of the little
sketch laughable and novel.
The one act on the bill that is ath
letic is that of the Strength Brothers.
Only one is rightly named but they are
both, as they bill themselves "equili
bristle wonders." They received almost
continuous applause from the big aud
ience yesterday. They are followed
by, the Holdsworths, who can play
the banjo but can't sing, although their
"I Wonder. Why" went well. Their
instrumental selections were difficult,
especially the ever-popular "Sextette."
The opening act was that of Dean
and Price. It was a college bkit and

TRY A HOME
TREATMENT
When Doctors Say That Nothing But
Charge of Climate Will Help.
Renew the Blood Supply by the Tonic
Treatment and Soe if You Are
Not Saved Money, Time and
Suffering.
If you are suffering from a run-down
condition where ordinary remedies seem
to have no effect and your friends and
advisors are recommending a change of
air or climate, it is worth while to con
sider trying the tonic treatment with Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills before taking their
advice.
Mrs. William Patterson, whose address
is Box 33, R. F. D. No. 4, Snohomish,
Wash., failed to regain her strength until
she tried this tonic treatment with Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills. She says:
"When I was fifteen years old I had an
attack of the measles and was sick for
over a year. I was very weak and could
not get my strength back. I was so
short of breath that I couldn't walk any
distance at all without fainting. I had
awful headaches a greater part of the
time. I was nervous and run down in
flesh and strength. Friends, who saw
me, thought 1 would never get well.
"I was living at Everett and was
treated by two doctors but they didn't do
me a bit of good. I was under their
care for about six months and was getting
worse all of the time. Finally had to
remain in bed and the doctor said that
nothing but a change of climate would
help me. After being cdnfined to bed
for a month, my mother decided to give
me Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. I received
great help from a few boxes and grew
stronger and felt better in every way. I
took the pills regularly for quite a while
and was completely cured."
Whenever a tonic is needed, Dr. Wil
liams' Pink Pills should be given an im
mediate trial. They quickly enrich the
blood and give strength and health to
every part of the body. For' this reason
they have cured anaemia, chlorosis, rheu
matism, lumbago, general debility and
the after-effects of the grip and fevers.
Our booklet, "Diseases of the Blood,"
will be sent free upon the request of any
sufferer from impure or impoverished
blood.
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by al
druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt of price, 50 cents ter box ; six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams
Medicine Company, Schenectady. N Y

Lyric.
TWO big audiences paid demonstrative
tribute to the musical comedy play
"The -Sole Kiss," with which the Arm
strong Company begins its second week
at the Lyric.
As is the rule with musical concoc
tions, the title has little to do with the
general plot, but in this instance there
is an introduction of a clever travesty on
that other sensational "Soul Kiss"; only
in this-instance the comedy element is
decidedly apparent and provokes a riot
of mirth. The rest of the play is a
recital, in song and dialogue, of a man
named Brown, who goes for a brief
breathing spell to Coney Island and on
his return tells the wife the usual fairy
tale of a hunting trip in the mountains.
Of course Brown is aided and abetted
by his friend Hogan, and in order to keap
their own "skirts clear" the precious
pair drag in the village curate and make
him a party to their scheme. For a
while it works, then when a Coney Island
acquaintance in the person of one Flos
sie, an actress, calls at the home of
Brown, the complications begin in earn
ent, and the action, and incidentally the
fun, while ancient In spots, is of the Gat-ling-gun
variety.
Gus Leonard is positively ludicrous in
the role of Brown, and speaks with a
Teutonic accent that even a native of
Milwaukee might envy. His coptume. too,
is a remarkable thing in itself and one
wonders if he dons his trousers with a
choe-horn. Will Armstrong js inimitably
funny, and elicits oaot laughter by his
