,". BT LEONE CASS BAER.
After all is said ana done, the thing
bout "Lena Rivers" in film version is
tljat It bring trooping: back to us a
flock of memories. Just as If it were
yesteryear our early taste in fiction
returns. Nothing- so much as a filmed
revival of a "Dora Thome;" or a "Bow
of Orange Ribbon." or an "East Lynne,"
of; an "Ishmael" will send our memo
ries woolgathering.
I sat at the Heilig Sunday night and
grew right mushy over poor little
Lena's troubles. They are so poignant
ly.' real on the reel. Kven many years
of perusal of modern best sellers has
not dimmed my love for Lena, the
orphan.
Lena a First Lave.
;She was my first literary love. I
nought her' for the quarter my mother
had given meto buy a Bpeller. And
for a week I was an ignoramus Inso
far as knowing my spelling lessons was
concerned, but out in the henhouse I
sobbed and splashed my youthful soul
away over the woes of Lena. I burled
her wronged mother under the daisies
end Lena and I shed tears together
when we visited the spot several chap
ters further on.
I may have spelled Illiterate with
one "1" that week, but I married Lena
off-to the man of her choice. It was
worth staying at the foot of the class
fori
Last night it all came back, as the
life history of Lena Rivers was flashed
on the screen. A capable cast enacts
the story.
Ileulah Pointer Plays Lena.
Beulah Poynter, who has played the
role of Lena hundreds of times in her
own companies, plays It once more for
thx? filmed version. She plays a dual
role, appearing first as Helena Nichols,
who secretly weda the Harry "Rivers"
wK'nsa name isn't Rivers at all, but
Graham.
JCater Miss Poynter appears as
Helena's child, the orphaned Lena Riv

farm where Lena lived with Granny

CRUISER SAVES BRITON
BEWER'S ARRIVAL AT E!SEN'ADA

Mexicans About to Seise Steamship
Crtrlaua When American Warship
Sails In and Intercede.
SAN DIEGO. May 3. Without a
pound of coal aboard, an ounce of food
or a pint of water, the British steam
ship Cetriana was towed into San Diego
harbor today by the United States
cruiser Denver. A thrilling; story of the
Cetriana's adventure 'at Ensenada was
related by J.A. Seaberg, of San Diego,
first officer of the vessel.
According to SSeaberg, had it not been
for liia defiance of a Mexican colonel
and a squad of soldiers, the vessel's
cargo, valued at J200.000, would have
been confiscated at Ensenada and Cap
tain Kerr -.and the radio operators, Leo
Mayrie and W, Perry, and the purser.
C. V. Legasne, of the Cetriana.- -would
have been held in Jail at Knsenada had
not Commander iL J. Ziegemeicr, of the
Denver, interceded and effected their
release.
The Cetriana sailed from Mazatlan
for Ensenada and San Diego April 14
according to First Officer Seaberg The
customs officials refused the Cetriana
clearance papers from Mazatlan, but the
vessel proceeded to sea. When the Cet
riana arrived at Ensenada Captain Kerr
was taken ashore by a squad of Mexi
can soldiers and placed under deten
tion and requested to sign a statement
turning over the Cetriana's cargo to
the Mexican authorities. Captain Kerr
refused. Then a second squad of sol
diers went aboard the vessel and took
the two radio operators and the purser
ashore.
After this a Mexican colonel boarded
the Cetriana and said he had received
orders from the military commander of
Lower California .to unload the Cetri
ana's cargo.
"While he was telling me of this
order." said Seaberg. "a lighter came
alongside. I told him that under no
circumstances would I permit him to
loosen the hatch coverings or remove
any part of the cargo. After much
parley he went ashore but before the
Mexican colonel could return with more
soldiers the cruiser Denver hove in
sight.
"Commander Ziegemeier, of the Den
ver, after learning of the trouble and
the plight of Captain Kerr and three of
the crew, went ashore and following a
conference with Ensenada officials suc
ceeded In getting the men and vessel
released."

Captain W. R. Thomas Pilots Craft
Through Turbulent River, Amaz

All Records Are Broken-
BY SHAD O. KRANTZ.
ALMOTA. Wash., May 2. (Special.)
Lewi at on. the objective point of the
Undine and her passengers, now Is
within easy striking distance. xne
Portland ship put in three miles below
here tonight after a full day of pleas
ant and successful travel up the more
Or less turbulent Snake. Almota is only
S3 miles from the Idaho line and but 40
miles from the City of Lewlston.
The Undine Is due to sneak away
from thia place early tomorrow morn
ing and will arrive at Lewlston
promptly at 9 o'clock. She could be
there earlier, but that would mar the
programme of celebration arranged by
the Lewlston people, who have fixed
for the arriving time.
Great Crowd to Visit Vessel.
Advices received here tonight indi
cate that a tremendous crowd will be at
the wharf to greet the first vessel ever
to attempt a continuous voyage from
Portland to Lewlston, nearly 400 miles
distant.
The Lewlston people. It was learned.
are fully appreciative of the Importance
attaching to the Undine's visit. Her
trip provides the first concrete demon
stration that the barriers of the Co
lumbia have been conquered and that
the Celilo Canal has been completed.
"We want to show the world that
Lewlston is prepared to take advantage
of the situation since the Celilo Canal
has made her a seaport," was the as
suring message received by the Undine
passengers tonight. "Our celebration
tomorrow aets a pace that will be hard
for the lower towns to follow in their
festivities later in the week."
Two Seasick Crossing Rapids.
Although they have been on the ves
sel three full days and nearly three full
nights the Undine's passengers are not
weary of the trip and the officers and
crew have combined to make every mo
ment pleasant. However, two women
actually got seasick in going over the
rapids tonight.
All are looking forward expectantly
for the first day of the week full of
events scheduled at Lewiston tomor
row. The Undine got away from Pasco
with the break of day this morning.
She was detained for a short while at
Ainsworth Landing by a heavy fog
which hung over the river. Fogs of this
nature are said to he unusual in this
part of the country and that of this
morning surprised even the oldest mari
ners on board. The remainder of the
trip was through an interesting and
beautiful country and over some excit
ing patches of water.
Captain Amaaea Old Navigators.
Captain W. R. Thomas remained
steadily at the wheel throughout the
day, as he has on the entire trip, and
the way he handled the vessel across
the rough and shallow places won the
admiration of all the experienced navi
gators on board. Some of the swiftest
currents encountered since leaving
Celilo are Indian Rapfds, Umatilla
Rapids, Five-Mile Rapids, Palouse
Rapids and Texas Rapids. ' The two
last mentioned were passed this after
noon. The sun managed to get out
from behind the clouds for the occa
sion and played against the dashing
waters Just enough to present them
in the most attractive and most fan
tastic forma for the admiring passen
gers.
Incidentally the Undine, under Cap
tain Thomas, has broken all previous
records for the up-river trip between
Celilo and Pasco, making the voyage
in 10 hours and 20 minutes of actual
running time. Another fast voyage was
made between Pasco and Riparia.
The Undine stopped at Riparia this
afternoon to take on two big bundles
of Sunday Oregonians, which were dis
tributed among the passengers.
Reminiscences of River Given.
Mrs. Lulu Crandall. an early-day resi
dent of the Inland Empire, is on board
and has furnished the other passengers
with nrany interesting reminiscences of
this part of the river. She formerly
lived here at Almota. which in the early
rightias was an important river point.
Freight for Colfax. Moscow and the In
land Empire territory was distributed
here.
Another point of Interest pointed out
this afternoon was the ferry at Palouse.
This formerly was used by travelers on
the main road leading to the base of
the Rocky Mountains, where they were
able to connect with roads serving the
neaawaters or tne Missouri River.
The site of old Fort Taylor was
pointed out in the dusk of early even
ing. This fort was occupied by troops
before the Civil War and was named
in honor of Colonel Taylor, who was
killed nearby by a band of Indiana.
Wade's Bar, where the Bteamer Annie
X axon was blown up a few decades asro
with the loss of many lives, also was a
point of, much interest passed this
arternoon. Harry Robertson, second
officer of the Undine, who has been
connected with upper river boats for
nearly S4 years, was able to designate
many points or interest.
The Undine doubtless will remain in
Lewiston until early Tuesday morning.
She will leave at daybreak and run to
Pasco, where the first celebration of
that day is scheduled to becrin at 10
o'clock. Captain L. p. Hosford, one of
her owners, declares it will be easy to
run irom xewiston to rasco In five
hours or less. He also is complimenting
his crew on the fact that the entire
trip from Portland to. Lewiston will
be completed on less than 100 barrels
or on.
Late this evening the Undine passed
Penawawa, a series of shoals at the
edge of the stream covered with shrub
bery and much beautiful foliage. Ad
miral W. P. Gray, who navigated the
Snake River in the early days, once
wrote a poem with apologies to Long
fellow on the manner in which this
place was named. Here It is:
Now we come to Penawawa,
Here the son Hiawatha.
When ha left Ilia poor old mother.
Going; with uncles, son and brother;
Ieft the poor old Minnehaha
With her toothless guma and Wawa,
Taking all her riga and trinkets.
And forgot to leave her blankets;
Here we aay this Uiwaah landed
Where the alnuoua Snake expanded.

in the old days, except there will be
no gambling.
CANADIAN LOSS NEAR 6000
Two Thousand Missing After Bat
tle of Tpres.
OTTAWA, Canada, May 3. Casual
ties among the Canadian contingent In
the fighting at Ypres are now reported
to have been nearly 6000.
Of these 2000 are reported missing,
the missing being chiefly the Thir
teenth and Fourteenth battalions of
Montreal Highlanders, each 1000. -
It is stated that 700 officers and
men were killed and 3000 wounded.
The totals thus given would indicate
that more than one-fourth of the 21,
000 men in the division were put out
of action.
The Canadian official eyewitness re
ported the two battalions of Highland
ers left behind in the fighting at St
Julian.
"The German line,"' the eyewitness
said, "rolled over the deserted village,
but for several hours after the enemy
had become master of the village sullen
and persistent rifle fire showed that
they were not yet master of the Cana
dian rear guard."
As Berlin reported a thousand Cana
dain prisoners, it Is feared here that
a thousand of these rear guards were
killed before exhaustion of ammuni
tion compelled the detachment to Bur
render. PRESIDENT IS GODFATHER

WAR PROFITS ENORMOUS
German Munition Factories Increase
Capital and Dividends.
AMSTERDAM, May 3 The German
arms and ammunition factories, most
of which doubled their capital last
year, are declaring a dividend of 20
per cent, as compared with 32 per cent
for the eyar 1913. This is equivalent
to a dividend of 40 per cent on the old
capitalization.
Many other German concerns working
for the army and navy have either
raised their dividends or set aside a
large sum into undivided profits. A
large rubber factory whfch has for sev
eral years been in financial straits,
shows a net profit for the past 12
months amounting to more than half its
total capital.
A new $500,000 corporation organized
in Berlin by clothing men will devote

British Naval Commander
Says Efficiency Decreased.
PROHIBITION IS ADVISED
Repairs on War Vessels and Trans
port Service Are Delayed, Great
ly to Detriment of Nary, In
View of Vice-Admiral.
LONDON", May 3. The serious effect
that drink Is having on the repairs to
the warship and transport services and
in the output of munitions Is disclosed
In reports from firms and officers
throughout the country; which were
published in the form of a white paper.
From Vice-Admiral Sir John R. Jelli
coe, commander-in-chief of the home
fleets, down, the officers responsible for
the navy are of the opinion that the
ihort hours worked by the men in pri
vate yards is due to drink. They de
scribe conditions m deplorable and urge
on the government the necessity of
adopting the total prohibition of alco
holic drinks or restrictions on the sale
of them.
Vice-Admiral Jellicoe,' in a letter to
the admiralty on this subject, says:
"I am uneasy about the labor situa
tion in the Clyde and the Tyne. I sent
a telegram or two lately about it. You
may think I am exceeding my sphere
of action In doing so. but the effici
ency of this fleet Is so affected by it
that I felt my duty to wire today.
"An officer in a responsible position
has arrived here and bis account of
things-on the Clyde is most disquiet
ing. He skid the men refused alto
gether to work on Saturday afternoon:
that they took Wednesday afternoon
off every week, if not the whole of
Wednesuay, and worked on Sunday he
cause they got double pay for It. He
said also that they only worked in
a half-hearted manner. ,
"My dockings and refits are delayed
in every case by these labor difficul
ties, and they take twice as long as
they need to. I feel you ought to Know
the facts, and so 1 put them before
you."

showing the effect of excessive drink
ing on the output of work as regards
shipbuilding, repairs and munitions of
war, which is being carried out by con
tract for the Admiralty. Admiral Tudor
says:
"Briefly, the position Is that now,
while the country is at war, the men
are doing less work than would be
regarded as an ordinary week's work
under normal peace conditions. Thus
the problem is not how to get the work
men to Increase their normal peace out
put, but how to get them to do an
ordinary week'a work for 61 or 62
hours, as the case may be.
"The reaaona for the loss no doubt
are various, but it Is abundantly clear
that the most potent reason is the
facilities which exist for the men to
obtain beer and spirits, with a high
rate of wages and abundance of em
ployment. Opinion on this point Is
practically unanimous."
