associated with me aa my leading man
for five years, and In Mr. Roberts who
I undoubtedly th foremost character

Baker Gets Credit.
"Great credit must bo glvsn Mr. Baker
for what ha Is doing. W are all a
tremendous expense to him. snd let me
tell you right now. no other stock man
ager In the United Stales, outside of
Can FTancasco would dare attempt It. But
Mr. Baker has the theater, and It has
the needed capacity Ifor housing big
audiences, and what Is) better be has th
loyal patronage of folk who know he
for their amusement and welfare
In theatrical entertainment. It Is, In
deed, a wonderful engagement."
As well It will be a "wonderful en
gagement," to quote Miss Roberts, for
the rest of th Baker players. To b
associated with a trio of stars of world
magnitude, and to reoelv th personal
tuition and help of such a successful
director as Is Miss Roberts means a
great deal.
The first play to be given, "Jim th

which Mr. Bergen. Mr. Roberts and
herself are particularly adapted.

Th committee Is composed of B. S.
Josselyn. G. F. Johnson. Frank Ran
som. City Attorney Frank 8. Grant. E.
U Thompson and John S. Beall. Dr.
J. R. Wetherbee presided and said that
th object of the meeting was solely
for discussing plans to secure the con
struction of an auditorium by a city
bond Issue or by private subscription.
W. M. Ladd waa one of the first to
be called for an expression. He said
that he was heartily In favor of the
project- It seemed to him that it was
absolutely necessary. If the city ex
pected to take care of the conventions
which could be secured, that some pro
vision be made to house ths delegates.
At the present time there was no suit
able quarters for the holding of a. con
vention. He was in favor of a bond
Issue of $500,000 and believed that It
would carry.
B. S. Josselyn said that an audito
rium was one of the best investments
the city could make and that so far as
he was able to ascertain the citizens
believed that It was an absolute ne
cessity and would favor the issuance
of the bonds. He said that he would
move that It be declared to be the
sens of the meeting that they go
ahead with the project and that It be
declared to be the wish of the people
of Portland that an auditorium be con-
' structed by an Issuance of bonds not
to exceed 1500.000.
E. L. Thompson doubted if a good
site could be secured for 1100,000. It
might be possible that the Armory
I could be converted Into a suitable
' place. Then there was ths Market
! Square on Second. Third, Clay and
j Market streets, which could be ob-
talned without cost If the city should
construct It. He was In favor or build
ing an auditorium which would be a
credit to the city, ana if ibup.ooo was
not enough he would prefer that the
amount be Increased.

New Man Gathering: Likely looking
Squad Which May Be Contender
In Coast League.
John Patsy O'Rourke, recruit, has
been appointed captain-manager of the
Sacramento club of the Pacific Coast
League. Working In harmony with
Charley Graham, O'Rourke is fast
building up a team which figures to
make all the other clubs In the Paclfto
Coast circuit "hurry some."
Charley Graham and th Sacramento
owners are giving the new manager
all the leeway possible and every
known effort Is being resorted to In
th effort to give th Senators a good
team. Graham Is devoting most of his
time to other business and has given
O'Rourke full charge.
O'Rourke will bring many new faces
to Portland with him. In the person
nel of the club he has several well
known Psclfic Coast League players,
tncldlng "Spider" Baum, "Deacon" Van
Buren, "Babe" Danzig, Jimmy Wbalen,
"Miokey" LaLonge, Jimmy Shlnn and
others. Hla new men are Interesting,
according to training camp reports.
Manager O'Rourke plans to work at
second himself. Lerchen, a castoff
from the Boston Red Box, Is said to be
favored for the shortstop berth. He is
said to be a trifle weak with the stick.
Dulln, a recruit from the New England
League, Is fighting It out with Jimmy
Shlnn for the thlrdbase position.
Th outfield looks strong with the
veteran Van Bureu In centerfleld to
steady two promising recruits. One of
these youngsters Farrell Is billed for
faster company. It Is said. He comes
from Notre Dame University and Is
very fast and a good hitter. He will
play field. Pong will probably govern
right garden. Although ouly a medi
ocre fielder. Pong pounds the ball so
hard that Mansger O'Rourke will pro
bably keep him for that alona. Al
Helster Is utility outfielder.
LaLonge, formerly with Oakland and
San Francisco, Is regular catcher, with
a New England youngster named De
Volgt as understudy. O'Rourke Is try
ing to get Williams of th Red Sox for
his receiving staff.
The pitchers appear strong. "Spider"
Baum is working nloely and Is re
garded as a regular.- Fitzgerald and
Whalen. veterans, are said to have
poor chance of being retained. The
Red Sox left Thompson, a husky left
hander, with O'Rourke and the big fel
low . promises to be another Gregg.
McLeod. a pitcher from th South At

Nourse, th Brown College player. Is
depended upon.

RISES J PAY FOUGHT
oorxciLMAjr btjrgard, new
JEEMBKR, IS CACTIOVS.
"Where Is Money Coming "From?' Is
.Question That Holds Cp Sev
eral Applications.
Councilman Burgard. who Joined the
City Council recently, stood out yes
terday against Increasing any more
salaries until such time as he can ' be
shows where the funds are coming from
to pay them. Many applications were
laid over at hla motion, although Coun
cllmen Bakgr and Rushlight were. In
favor of granting all of the rises, asked.
"I do not say that I am opposed to
any one of these proposed Increases;"
said Mr. Burgard, "but I must know be
fore voting for any more rises wher
the money to pay the salaries Is coming
from. I believe In paying all that an
employe is worth, but I must know first
about th funds."
"If the funds are not at hand, some
means should bs created to get them,"
replied Councilman Baker. "In my busi
ness I pay people what they are worth,
and I do not believe In doing any differ
ently in city business."
Over th question of a proposed In
crease In the salary of Mrs. Rachel D.
ShaUo, the members of the committee
had considerable talk. Councilman Cel
lars declared that be would Ilk to know
how many hours she worss, as -uuucji-man
Rushlight had said that a nurse In
private life Is paid H a day. ,
"I am paying a nurse who Is on duty
24 hours a day," said Mr. Burgard, In
reply. 'She is on call whenever wanted."
Councilman Baleer said he did not be
lieve In such a plan; that he once em
ployed two nurses, who- alternated. He
was much opposed to postponing her ap
plication for an increase In salary from
$75 to 190 a month, but Mr. Burgard held
out against granting it and he was sup
ported by Councllmen Cellars and Wal
lace. Among the applications for Increases
were those of Fred G. Buchtel, ealer
of weights and measures, who asks J1B
Instead of $125 a month; his deputy, who
asks for an increase from $100 to $126;
F D. Smith, city milk chemist, who
seeks a rise from $12S to $150. and 11
patrol sergeants In the police department,
who want an Increase from $115 to $125.
t...- funri is running low, ana
It Is because of this that the more con
servative members of the Council are
Inclined to "hold naru " ana arc
careful consideration. Mayor Blmon Is
opposed to granting any more rises, ana
showed his disapproval of ths Inroads
being made on the general fund by al
lowing the last salary ordinances to go
Into effect without nis signature.
