"Hut I did not mean to bite him." she -rled. The girl told, sobblngly. of a tattle she do-lured she had with the lentlst and of bavins; been overcome r his strength, and then soothed by the "love light In his eyes" and the tenderness of his voice. "I was a good girl." she added, werp :n. "If you were In that room for li months," went on Campbell, "as an unwilling prisoner, why did you not try to escape?" f.lrl la Fear. a aya. "I was afraid of him," the girl re plied. "I thought If 1 appealed for help he would take me away and I would never be heard of attain. lie was going to take me away the week In which papa fcund and rescued me." Attorney Campbell centered bla ef fort on an attempt to show that Miss McDonald, madly Infatuated, pursued the dentist and elicited from the wit ness statements that tended to show Mtsa McDonalds mother knew of the lUus'Jer'n relation with McDavlt aev eral 'cars tun and bad kept the knowledge secret from the girl's father, a well-known contractor of San Bernardino. Mtsa McDonald, how ever, vehemently denied that aha had sought the dentist. "Hut he made love to me." she de clared. McDavlt'a counsel then sought to demonstrate to the lurv that If aha re mained In the room next McDavlt'a dental office she did so willingly. "You were near a telephone all the time, were you not?" asked Campbell of the Klrl. "The telephone was In McDavlt'a office. Why did you not use It to summon help If you wanted to escape?" "1 waa afraid of Dr. McDavlt." tha witness replied slmplv. "Besides I de pended on his promise to divorce his wife and marry roe." Miss McDonald completed her story on cross-examination this afternoon. The court declined to admit as evi dence letters said to have been writ ten by Miss McDonald to McDavlt be fore her Imprisonment, on plea of the defense.

While Mr. Miiler already exercises Jurisdiction over traffic on this portion of tie system the detailed freight and passenger business Is bandied bv W. IX Skinnrr. of Seattle, with rank as gen eral freight and passenger agent. Before the recent reorganization of the llarrlman system the operation of tlie Portland-Seattle line also was handled from Seattle, but now all op erating business is done In Portland. A similar change In the traffic arrange ment would be a natural one. The pian discussed by officials In this city Is to give Mr. Mc.Murray charge of passenger traffic and Frank W. Robin son, general freight agent, charge of freight traffic en thla line and to main tain Mr. Skinner's office in Seattle with the title of assistant general freight and paser.ger agent. It Is probable that the change will be made December 1. but It may be delayed until the first of tlie year. Coal ustrs ajltj:r:a Fuel Co, ... '. s . "' . ' . ' ' '; - .4 J . J V :-. i ', "i- OSCAR W.

In de fense of the present representative Oovernment of this country. Repre sentative Oscar W. Underwood, the Democrpatle majority leader In the House, spoke tonight at a dinner given In his honor by the Birmingham Cham ber of Commerce. "It Is Droposed by some," said Mr. Cnderwood. "that we In part abandon the representative Government enacted by our revolutionary fathers and adopt a system that in the end would estab lish a direct democracy when the ulti mate powera to make laws would be placed directly In the hands of all the people and the independent Judiciary, Intended to protect the Constitutional guarantees of the Individual liberty would become subservient to the will of the majority through political com- i pulsion-" I Mr. rnderwood declared there was j far less danger of enacting hasty. 111- , c isldered legislation under the pres ent than under the proposed Initiative and referendum. He admitted that the latter scheme had worked out satisfactorily In some i local matters when the distinct issue was clearly understood. He contended, however, that the people's representa tives were better able to protect their Interests on National matters. WIVES CHARGE BIGAMY Two In lx Angeles Discover Facts. Third Spouse Here.

IF the show shopper who takes In "The Commuters" at the Heilig doesn't take on considerable flesh. It will be only because that old saying "Laugh and grow fat." has no longer any foundation In truth. For verily "The Commuters" Is a laugh provoca tive, and folk rejoice accordingly, . fof where Uvea he who Is not more eager to smile out loud than to concern him self uselessly over some ethical prob lem? About 0 per cert of the audience did not know what a commuter was. or is, when the curtain went up last night. When It fell they had Joined the 40 per cent who had full cognizance and ap preciation of the Joys and sorrows doled out to the gleeful suburbanite who runs blithely for his car at morn and night. James Forbes has written a farcical comedy that possesses the novelty of exploiting the Inconveniences of living "at the edge of the city;" he has treat ed the subject with the skill and re sourcefulness of a trained comedy writer, and the finished whole la pre sented br n excellent company of players snd staged with an eye to please. And It pleases in capital let ters. It's all about a perfectly nice man and wife who have taken a tiny Queen Anne menage at the furthest end of the suburban carline. After one par ticularly liquid evening, the husband returns .In the email hours, bringing; slong his friend and boon companion. Sonny Fletcher, whom he stores in the guest chamber. Next morning. In the "gab f est" that ensues, he has no recollection of the guest he has brought to his home and his lnhospltality la only recalled to him Just as the train whistles the last train, the missing of which means trou ble. So the friend Is left to pop in on Mrs. Commuter and scare her out of a years growth. Since there are no other trains. Sammy remains snd helps enliven a meeting of the Suburban Ladles' Repose and Culture Club. A maid whose prior service at Chllds has given her superior airs and ambitions . -t,.r.n to "a Dlace where everybody was o friendly," adds hilarity with her familiar manners, usurping of Mrs. Commuter's authority and finally, after one grand round, her shrieked resigna tion. "I throw up me Job. I II worK, an work hard, but Gawa Knows dynamo." - Then, since there are no -eai m i" house" and It Is Saturday ariernoou . b.t. rinil Mrs. Com ma me niai n.v . - - muter puts on her bonnet and makes the round oi me numea i .u muters, borrowing the nucleus of a dinner. When she returns a note says: "We've gone to tne ciuo ior um ner." Just how Mrs. Commuter gets even constitutes the rest of the story, and for those who have yet to aee It, there's no fair telling. Anyway the ending is highly satisfactory, and the .n. rt it ontAlla a. great deal of shaking of sides with laughter. Those oiten overwui ivou iuiub, " situations, are ludicrous and the fun of the farce is well maintained. Occa sionally, as might be surmised. It turns . i i Kiit no nn analyzes to near-uui icnii - when he's spreading his face from ear to ear In an unaisiumeu enu. auu anvwav. the very exaggerations of the players Is fun-making. ' Once the comedy gets serious and threatens Indeed It all but does, preach a tiny little sermoe to hus bands who stay out at night, and Just as the audience has become thoroughly convinced that it'a wrong to laugh In this world, the tension Is broken by the observing and cynical Sammy, who has that cheerful and welcome position In the family row, as the general goat. Harry Davenport, in the role of Sammv, gets all the fun possible out of a part that overflows with Joy, His antics In the dove cote are reminis cent of that proverbial bull in the china shop, and his efTorts to squeeze things are painfully funny.
