TITE MORNING OREGONIAN. TUESDAY, MAY 20, 1913. 13 ? SLEETH TRIAL JUDGE TAKES HAND Time Wasted First Libsl Case, 'Says Day in Jurist Sitting on Action. JURY BY TONIGHT IS URGED Entire Time Occupied In Examining 3 Veniremen, 2 of Whom Are raised for Cause and Third Ex cused After 2-Hour Quli. tk. trial of State atrainst Dana ei.th th Portland News Publish lng Company, charged with criminally libelling County Commissioner Light ner and County Judge Cleeton. opened in Circuit Judre Davis" court yesieruay, Th. entire iIit was occupied in ex amining three veniremen, two of whom were passed for cause. The third was excused after tVe defense had occupied nearly two hours In examining him, the reason being that he came here only four months ago from Montana and is not qualified to serve. This was Alex Barnehoff. The questions relative to hia rasMenca Qualifications were not asked him till the last. Th. iwn men Dassed for cause are John Hampton, furniture mover, of 374 r.t Twentv-rixth street north, and T P. Raw son. Inspector for the P. E a. v. Rallwav. 6051 Seventieth street ttmilhaaat At the COllClllSiOn Of the dav s proceedings Judge Davis instruct ed the attorneys for the defense to pass tha nle-ht In fraHnine que!tlo to asx proposed jurors. The judge said that tima m-s. bpinar wasted in useless ana Immaterial questioning. He thought that from 20 to 30 questions from each iMa should serve to develop a venire man's qualifications and state of mind and said that the jury should be com plete by tonight. Masrnlre la Brief. Pnr the state District Attorney Evans and Robert F. Maguire, his chief denutv. are BDDearlnar. On the other side are arrayed Frank T. Collier.. Wil liam c. Benbow. E. Plowden Stott. Dan- l v.. Powers and John H. Perry, of Seattle, a general attorney in libel matters for the Scripps papers on the roast. Mr. Collier is examining the nrosoective jurors. His questions yes terday included asking the Jurors whether they knew not only the men alleged to have been libelled and mem bers of the District Attorney's office. but also every business man with whom the county has had business relations of anv extent and various other county officials. Mr. Maguire's examinations for the prosecution were brief. Judge Davis at first ordered that the 12 men in the box remain in the cus tody of the bailiff over night and all the time, but counsel agreed that there was really no reason for keeping the veniremen together until the jury has actually been selected and the order was revoked. After the jury has been chosen the 12 men composing It will be kept together night and day until their verdict, has been given. One of the first questions put to a venireman yesterday morning .drew an objection from Mr. Maguire and pre cipitated a discussion as to what Is the law of libel. Argument of Proof Arises. Mr. Collier and associates argued that the state must prove not only the publication of the alleged defamatory article, but must prove also Its falsity and that it was not published with jrood motive and for justifiable ends. Mr. Maguire, on the other hand, argued that the state Is required in Its case In chief to prove only the publication of the article on whlcTi the Indictment Is based, that Is, make out a prima fa cie case and that it then becomes the duty of the defendants either to dis prove publication or establish the truth of the charges made in the article. This view was sustained by Judge Davis. It developed that the original indict ment has been mysteriously lost from the County Clerk's office. Up till 6 o'clock last night It had not been found, but It is believed that it merely has been mislaid. Attorneys state that It makes no difference if the original is not found, as there are several au thenticated copies In existence and their exact similarity to the original can be established by proof If the de fense refuses to stipulate. New Bills Open at the Vaudeville Houses JVfADAME OLGA PETROVA, a mag I 1 netlc, magnificent, maddening act ress, with a riot of splendid red tresses, a slender, snakelike body that twists and writhes with the emotions she pic tures, heads the new bill at the Or pheuni. Madame Petrova Is Polish and her accomplishments as entertainer are varied and delightful. She gives a bit of tragic impersonation of Sapho and two versions, one a comedy and one as a tragedy, of a French rendition of ragtime. One song Is about a parrot, another about a frivolous cat, and in both the lovely Petrova makes vocal pyrotechnics. She Is truly refreshing und of tremendous worth as a head line act. This is her first visit out here and she was forced to respond to so many calls that a "speech" was nec. essary. Next In Interest Is another "single" and a feminine one. This is Flavilla. which sounds like an extract or per fume, but isn't. Flavilla is a dainty, smiling girl, who hugs a big white mounted accordion- to her heart while she makes gay music, all the while her twinkling toes trip merrily In nfeasure. A sketch that keeps everybody guessing and even laying bets is called "Detective Keen." There's a Jewel rob bery and one after another of suspects Is cleared with startling rapidity, while with equal surety each Innocent one is convicted. The denouement is highly dramatic. Four clever actors develop this sketch, best of whom Is Ruby J (off man. an exceedingly pretty and smart appearing maid. Another sketch is on the bill. Samuel Uebert and a company of two present Aaron Hoffman's playlet, "The End of the World." a farce that depends most ly on the character study Mr. Liebert makes of an old Hebrew who rules and adjusts his home and conduct by the teachings of a favorite writer. How his foxy son and undeslred daughter-in-law-to-be overcome hia scruples against their marriage constitutes the plot. Mr. Llebert's comedy is quiet in method and pleases. Bogert and Nelson have a song-a-logue with a minstrel-like setting. They call It "The Busiest Day of His Life." and in It the two "rehearse" for an act. Mr. Bogert is the property boy and Miss Nelson a lady grafter. The songs are tuneful and the lines entertaining. Opening the act are the two Crom wells, a big girl and a little lad. who have a whirlwind conglomeration of juggling that holds attention. A trio of well-worth-while wire acrobatic pantomimlsts. Bernard and Ollie Woods, with Jack Dean as a clown, end the bill. The act is of high order. Little Miss Woods is a very busy maiden and hums cheerfully all the while she works. Lyric. fTHE Gay Widow." presented by JJ. Keating and Flood at the Lyric this week. Is one of the brightest and best shows seen at the popular Fourth street theater for some time. Vera Alwyn Is Mrs, Peter Potts, the widow, and she plays the part delight fully, dresses beautifully, sings sweetly and flirts artistically. H. Guy Wood ward is August Lane, the wealthy wid ower in the case. Beside playing his part in the little plot to perfection, be has a fine appearance and stage pres ence. He does exceptionally good character work and in bis song, "Uncle Tom's Cabin." takes the bouse by storm. . Tincy Snyder (not very tiny, by the way) is seen as Charlie Chaser, a "hall room boy." In his solo, "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine," he shows to ad vantage a voice of rare quality and splendid range. Paul Stanhope is Jake Liverwurst, a millionaire who buys mechanical doll, who Is, of course. young heiress In disguise. Mr. Stan hope reminds one of the Kolb and Dill productions as far as looks and accen go, but he springs some new jokes and keeps everyone laughing. Fritzee Guy Is Lucy Lane, the heiress, who loves Patrick O'Callaghan Billy Onslow. Mr. Onslow's brogue is rich and his makeup is typically Irish. No amount of hard knocks seem to bother him and he gets his share at applause Miss Ilene Edwards, always pretty, al ways a favorite. Is unusually attractive in "My Little Kokomo," which she sings charmingly and has the assistance of the rosebud chorus. All are in the Japanese costume, which fTiey wear with coquettish grace. f ritzee uuy and the .Rosebuds do a banjo number that is pretty in costum Ing and stage effect. The "make-up of a quartet causes merriment. Wood ward. Stanhope. Snyder and Onslow In this number are alone worthy of headlines. The finale introduces the chorus iu costume of various nations. with "America" as the last and best at traction. There will be an athletic contest by the girls tonight and a chorus contest Friday night. Moving pictures and first-rate orchestration make the show an all-round success. Empress. "R iX" and "Don." English and Irish setters, who appear with Frank Stafford and Marie Stone at the Em press Theater this week In "A Hun ters Game, are the sort of dogs that one envies anyone else the possession of. for they do everything but talk. Besides the performance of the dogs, Mr. Stafford has a series of clever bird and animal imitations, and the entire collection or Btunts is woven into a romance of the woods, in which Miss Stone appears to advantage. Al Herman, the blackface monologtst who follows this act, "kids" the audi ence from the very beginning of his stunt and "gets by with everything he offers for a good laugh, ending his stunt with a parody on dancing that extremely comical. Another performer who serves laughs along with his act from start to finish W. C. Hoefler. the cycling clown. His trick riding is clever in the ex treme and Is carried through with an air of languid ease that makes it doubly striking. Lillian Holmes, a contralto, was well received last night with her offering of popular and classical songs and her medley of Irish melodies. Sydney Broughton and Grace Turner have a pleasing sketch, with an Irish atmos phere and Moffat-La Relne and com pany, the "human dynamos," close the bill with an interesting demonstration with high-voltage electricity, includ- ng X-ray photographing and exhibi tions of electricity of high voltage passed through the human body, light- ng cigarettes and tapers from the sparks of electricity thus transmitted. The moving pictures, which open the bill this week, are shown under the auspices of the Oregon State Dental Association and give an interesting glimpse of methods of dental inspection In public schools. Pantages. ring of solid gold is Julie Ring at Pantages this week, for while every act is good, hers the one with that extra sparkle and brilliancy which denotes the star or the tone of great price. That she shines as brighly as she does. In itself is a great tribute to her and her partners, for the whole bill Is one of. the best seen at this house for many a week. "The Man She Met" is a French farce with all the French cut out, but with musing situations abounding. Julie Ring, the trirl. meets James NorvaL the man in tile street (scene pne), a really elightful portrayal of how to meet and get properly introduced to a girl you don't know from Eve, and yet do the thing properly, don't you know. Re- elved with rapturous applause from the young bloods in the audience. The girl has suspicions that the man tole her locket the preceding day; that's why she said she was willing to have dinner with him. so as to arrange ith the waiter to watch him carefully. She orders one of those Gargantuan repasts in the course of which he finds all he has ln his pockets is a 12 bill. nd a locket he picked up in the street. The man Jovially admits his temporary Insolvency, and casually asks her opin ion of the amount uncle would give n the locket. Scene of mutual recrim- nation and all sorts of, but go and see there is a touching ending. Julie Ring is Julie Ring, dainty, beautifully dressed as ever, with one of those in- ocent faces and those childlike ways that drive men to distraction. Both orval and Rath provide excellent sup port. Another playlet, with san yuentin as setting. Is a powerfully dramatic epi sode of prison life, torture and brutal ity, with Carl Stockdale shining in the part of Convict 2634, a "liier." Then there's Joe Carroll, who lets the audience into secrets of the stage in a reathless act with much Jest and ges- ure. There are, too, some spienaia flying aerlallsts in the three Fishers, wo of them in clean, iresn iianneis to offset the antics of the third. Four young men. comprising? the Temple quartette, sing their way Into the hearts of the audience with tune ful harmony and catchy songs and med ley, while the Lelliott brothers did not exaggergate when they allowed them selves to be billed as musical come dians In music of the past the pres ent and the future.

In celebration of the 50th anniversary in the priesthood of Father De Roo, a pontifical mass will be held at the St. Joseph German Catholic Church this morning at 9:30 o'clock. Archbishop Christie will be present and between 50 and 60 priests will attend, besides members of the St. Joseph Verein, with their band, and many other laymen. Nearly 41 years of Father DeRoo's service has been in Oregon and he was actively associated with the develop ment of the Catholic missionary work in the eastern part of the state. He was born in Belgium and at the age of 24 took orders of priesthood, coming to America and to Oregon nine years later. He was first sent to Baker, in 1873, by Bishop Blanchard, and his experi ences in that parish in the early days were similar to those of the historic "circuit riders" of other sections of the United States in the pioneer days. His parish contained 12 Catholics when lie went to Baker, and it was 250 miles by 200 miles in extent. In going about the parish. Father DeRoo passed many nights in the woods and plains, sleep ing on the ground with a hair rope coiled about him to keep the rattle snakes away. When he left that parish after 17 years of service therein, his congregation numbered 450. He then established a parish in Pen-dleton, where he passed five years, building a church and increasing the congregation frortl 36 to 200. Then he was sent to Verboort, Washington County, and in 1899 and 1900 passed a year at Parkplace, working upon the publication or a nistory oi America ue fore the time of Columbus. Prepara extended Hon for this publication through seven years, during which Archbishop Gross allowed Father DeRoo three years' leave of absence to go to Europe and make research in the Papal archives in Rome. Father DeRoo came to Portland to take charge of the St. Joseph German Catholic Church in 1900. He was then 61 years old, and at that time he was obliged to learn to speak tne German language, which he had never learned before, in order to serve his congrega tion. He preached in St. Joseph's Church for eight years. He is now 75 years old, but is still engaged ln active work, preparing for BUSINESS EI.ECTRIC MOTORS. itOTOKS. generators, bought, sold, rented and repaired.
