ROSE SHOW TO BE
PART OF FESTIVAL
Various Interests Agree
Conference Held at Port
land Heights Club.
at
OPPOSING VIEWS GIVEN
.Association lie-fuses $1500 "Wanted
by Society, but AH Possible
Help Is Promised and Mat
ter Finally Settled.
The Rose Show will take place this
year as usual during the Hose Festival.
At a conference last night of amateur
rosegrowers from various districts held
at the Portland Heights Club, presided
over by Archdeacon Chambers, the
views of the Portland JUe Society and
the Portland Hose Festival Association
and the amateur growers were given
Portland Heights. Willamette Heights,
Sellwood, Eastmoreland and Kast Port
land were represented.
Speaking for the Rose Society, which
Jiad been refused 11600 by the associa
tion, E. B. McFarland, Its president.
said:
"There are numerous expenses that
are necessary to hold a rose show,
The association has provided generous
premiums for every other feature of
the Festival, and we believe that to ob
tain, a tine exhibit the customary pre
ml urns us heretofore given should b
olio wed. Wa think that the second
floor of Meier & Frank's store would be
the Ideal place to hold the show, and no
admission could be charged there.
"Society Cannot Assist."
"It has been suggested that wo
charge a slight admission, as was dona
one year when the deficit was. about
1100, but this la not deemed advisable
and the society feela that unless the
$1500 is forthcoming wo cannot assist
in the Rose bhow.
Emery Olmsteads president of the
Rose Festival Association, then replied,
saying:
"Owing to the general scarcity of
funds we did not commence collecting
subscriptions for funds for the festival
until February, w,hereas In previous
years the subscription list was started
In October, borne months ago the re
organisation committee asked us to
stop collecting subscriptions for the
festival, so, until recently, we did not
know Just what amount of money we
would have.
Caving of Ribbons Suggested.
"We cannot give the Rose Society
tlROO because we haven't It. . Kaon year
the association has given i0 silver cups
to the winning exhihltors. Money is so
scarce we suggested using ribbons, but
Air. McFarland would not agree on that
plan.
"We offered to assume the responsl
bility of the deficit if the Rose Society
would charge a slight admission, but
this plan was refused after the society
hart first suggested It,
Mr, McFarland then said that he had
received a letter from Mr. Olmstead
saying that the Rose Society would
have to assume any deficit If a. slight
admission wero charged and expenses
were not met. lie then repeated his
Idea that the usual custom of giving
cups was necessary if the Rose Society
were to assist.
Motion Calls for Aoxlatance.
A motion was then made that the
rose show be hold and that the Rose
Festival Association would give all the
assistance In its power.
In a discussion between the amateur
rose growers a plan for changing the
festival center to a main street instead
of the park blocks was suggested, but
It was finally decided, upon the recom
mendation of J. A. Curry, to support
the Jtose Festival Center already se
lected. Mr. Curry also read a paper on the
preservation of cut flowers, in which
he said that experiments by the United
States and by tho French government
brought forth the fact that a one-tenth
per cent solution of sugar put Into
water, about an ounce to a pint, and
having the steins split two Inches from
the bottom, would greatly protons the
life of the flowers.
FARMERS GET INVITATIONS
Move Than 125 Inspected at Opening
of Albina Market May 15.
More than 125 special invitations have
been sent to the farmers of Clarke
County, Washington, and Multnomah
County, who for the past year have
been supplying the Albina Public Mar
ket on Knott street, to attend the open
ing of the market Saturday, May 13. It
Is expected, according to the reports
received by M. H. Calef. member of
the market committee, that all, or near
ly all invited will be present.
Ladies of the Albina Consumers'
League are making preparations for
the event and are preparing to serve
hot coffee, cake and sandwiches on
Knott street. Business men will deco
rate their stores and places of business
in honor of the opening. The market
has been open every Wednesday and
Saturday, rain or shine, but, cf
course, business was slack during the
Winter, but it is increasing. The aver
age attendance of farmers was 30 for
the main portion of the time since the
market was opened a year ago. Most
of the farmers came from Clarke
County. Washington, and those who
came last year have prepared more area
of gardens for the ensuing year.
HEGELE REQUESTS DENIED
Demand for All-Day Session or
Lot'ked-l'p Jury Opposed.
The demands of Loyal II. McCarthy,
attorney for Dr. Herbert W. Hegele,
that the new trial be set soon, for an
all-day session, or with a locked-irp
jury, were not acceded to by Munici
pal Judge Stevenson yesterday, and the
trial wa set for Friday afternoon.
May 14.
"There Is no law that I know of that
permits me to lock up a Jury," the
magistrate told the attorney.
Prosecutor Delcb. entered strenuous
protests.
"I demand that there be no better
treatment shown Dr. Hegele than any
other , unfortunate who comes before
this court." he said. "They all look
alike to me."

OPERA WILL CLOSE
Season at Baker Theater to
End Sunday Night.
SCENERY IS IN DISPUTE
Xotice of Foreclosure Sent by Dr.
liar. sot ti, of San Francisco, Who
Held $13,000 Mortgage, but
Court Settlement Is Asked.
Sunday night will see tho close of
the present season at tho. Baker Thea
ter of grand opera py the Italian grand
opera company, Do Folco and Cecchetti
impresarios.
A legal dispute has arisen over the
ownership of the scenery, costumes.
etc., of the company, and this point
will be decided by the County Court
tomorrow morning, on the application
of the administrator for the estate of
the late Mario Lambardi. Tho seen"
ery, costumes and music are leased by
De Folco and Cecchetti from, Dr. Bar
sottl. of San Francisco, a personal
friend of the late Mario Lambardi. A
telegram was received yesterday from
Dr. Barsottl that he had foreclosed tho
mortgage for 312,000 which he had
loaned to Mario Lambardi, and that the
Supreme Court of California had given
him authority to assume possession of
the property. On the other hand,
friends of the late Mr. Lambardi assert
that on the death of Mario Lambardi
the ownership of the property in con
troversy passed to the Lambardi es
tate. It is even, rumored that there
are other mortgages against the prop
erty, and that he scenery, etc., are
really In bond from Italy and are sub
ject to the orders of tho United States
Government. Mr. Lambardi died so
suddenly that he had not time to settle
the business details of his estate.
Philip Bennyan, one of the baritones
of tho company, has resigned and will
close with the company Sunday night,
to proceed to his homo at Pasadena.
Cal. Mr. Bennyan says that ho, has
fallen In lovo with Portland. He will
be remembered in this city for his fine
portrayal of Tonia in "I'Pagliacci."
Tonight the company presents
Traviata"; tomorrow matinee, "Car
men : tomorrow nlgnt, iraust'; bun-
day afternoon "Alda." with Mr. Whipp
as Amonasro. Sunday night will wit
ness the good-bye performance, the bill
chosen being "Rigolatto."
Where the company is to go after
leafing Portland depends on what tho
court decides tomorrow morning. If
De Folco and Cecchetti come to an
agreement with the owners of the scen
ery, etc.. it Is likely that a return will
be made to California, by way of Salt
Lake City.
BET LOST, J17 GOES, TOO
Deputy Sheriff Dares Complainant to
Swear Out Warrant.
"I made a 13 bet with a man In
Portland and gave the stakeholder a
$20 gold piece because I didn't have
any change. I lost, but haven't got
back my 117. Is there any way you
can get it for me?"
Tills was the substance of a letter
Sheriff Hurlburt received yesterday
from Grover C. Curtis, of Willows. Or.
Mr. Curtis neglected to mention the
name of the Portland man with whom
the bet was made Beveral months ago,
so Sheriff Hurlburt will have a hard
time making the collection.
Denutv Sheriff Thompson drafted a
reply to Curtis' letter yesterday.
1 11 bet you the 17. ne saia. -mat
you're afraid to come to Portland and
swear out a warrant charging the
other fellow with larceny by bailee.
Betting is prohibited by law. you
know."
BEQUEST PAYS FOR PIANO
Player Instrument Is Presented to
County Hospital,
The County Hospital has a player-
piano, purchased with $300 which a
patient who died there recently, left
to the superintendent, Mrs. A. B, Y.
Spaulding. Before his death, tho pa
tient requested that his savings bo giv
en to Mrs. Spaulding personally. Mrs.
Spaulding refused to accept the money
herself, but asked the County Commis
sioners if it could bo used to purchase
a piano for the hospital. The board
assented.
Tho benefactor's funeral expenses bad
to be paid, however, and there was
not enough money to get the s ind .Pf a
piano Mrs. Spavlding thought the hes
pital required. This was solved through
a music house and a firm of funeral
directors. The music company gave a
va.lua.b4e player-piano for tho $Si)0. and
tho undertakers donated tho funeral.
Hoaeburg Man Strews Bad Checks.
ROSEBURO, Or., May . (Special.)
Since his sudden departure from
Roseburg about four weeks ago, Rose
burg banks have received a dozen or
more checks signed by W. L. Fraaier,
formerly a painter of this city. The
checks wero drawn on tho Umpqua
Valley Bank, of Roseburg, and were
pronounced worthless. When X'Tazier
left Roseburg he "ailed to liquidate
claims of merchants to tho sum of
$500. A warrant was issued for his
arrest. The last was cashed by Fraaier
at Sacramento, Cal.
SUICIDE EFFORT OF
ACTRESS IS MYSTERY
One Slender Thread of Hope Held Out for Recovery, but Lips of Helen
Carrutherg Are Sealed and No Message Voiced.
Si
BY ATJDISON BF.NNBTI,
EAVENLY FATHER, forgive
her, for eho knew not what
she was doing." That may well
sum up the prayer that should bo of
fered in the case of Helen Carruthers,
rhotoplay actress, who took poison on
Tuesday night at a local hotel, ana now
lies in the Uood Samaritan Hospital in
critical condition. But as it was
when she took the deathly pellets, so
it is with her now she does not realize
death is almost a certainty. All yes
terday the nurses were kept busy in
endeavoring to keep her in bed, but
in spite of all that could be done she
got up more than once and went flut
tering around the room.
She ' suffers no pain. Her kidneys
have utterly failed to perform their
functions since she took the poison, and
it is only a question of time how long
she can survive under such conditions.
Dr. J. Ettelsen says she has one
chance in a thousand, but this she
does not know and absolutely refuses
to believe that she is going to die.
Perhaps this tenacity of purpose
may save her, may thrdV the balance
towards that thousanatn cnance wno
knows? Everything that medical at
tention can do has been done: ail that
areful nursing can do has been done.
A few days at most will tell the story
whether it Is life or death.
csne is a young woman ui petmmi
haracteristics. In many ways stub
born, stating with nonchalance that if
she doesn't live she will die "and who
cares? is her quaint comment. wnen
I asked her If she had not some mes
sage for the public, some word for
mother or father, sister, brother or
friend, she gave an emphatic "No."
Yet there must be an undercurrent,
an unseen and unacknowledged charac
teristic of love and sentiment, for she
has confided with the matron the name
of a sister, who will reach here today
from San Francisco. Perhaps when she
arrives the invalid will talk.
When I asked her if she would give
me an interview after the doctor pro
nounced her on the road to recovery
she gave me the only smile of the in
terview and answered with a cheery
"Yes."
The doctor does not think it advis
able to tell her of her true condition,
though ho has more than hinted at it.
There she lies with , those great and
speaking eyes as sincere and soulful
looking as those of a little child. Hers
is not a countenance denoting sin or
fast living, doea not give evidence of
any sort of excesses. On the other hand
it seems to betoken a true, loyal snd
lovable maiden, one who would be as
true as steel to a friend or to father
and mother. No, she is not a bad girl
by any manner of means.
There she lies in her little cot quite
content to do so when watched over
ready to Jump out of bed and romp
around when opportunity offers. Yet
afar off, on the banks of the black
river, the boat lies at the landing, the
anchor has been lifted, the oar-locks
are in place, the oars are in the hands
of the ferryman who is waiting, wait
ing to ferry her soul over to the
farther shore!
The little room where she lies, where
her life trembles in the balance, is
banked with flowers, sent from an
unknown source. Is there, at the bot
tom of the case, a romance, a story
of unrequited love? That it la not a
story of dishonor would be the verdict
of any right-thinking man or woman
who looks into her countenance. It
may be but tho sense of duty or love
of some good Samaritan who wishes
to show a Oodly spirit through these
floral offerings. Yet the chances are
that there lie hidden in the brain of
Helen Carruthers the seds. aye the
fruits of a romance and that this!
romance caused the breakdown of her
mental organs that led her to the
step that may prove fatal, More'a the
pity if this be true, for in that case
there must be one waiting with more
that anxiety the result of her battle
against those 999 chances praying that
she may escape by the thousandth.
The similarity of the case of Miss
Carruthers and the late Signorina
Bonoray known as Mrs. Mario Lam
bardi, has forcibly impressed itself
upon the hospital authorities. Two
weeks ago Ida Bonora, a ballet dancer
of Milan, Italy, lay at the hospital suf
fering from the same poisonous effects
as her life slowly ebbed away. She
had taken bl-chloride of mercury and
lingered hopefully f6r almost a Week.
Just before the deadly poison had
worked its insidious way to her heart
she regained a hope to live. She had
taken the poison in a tit of melancholy
over the death of her companion. Mario
Lambardi. with whom she had lived as
wife for 12 years. Miss Carruthers to
day is lingering, quite hopefully, and
her case, while not similar in detail, is
strikingly similar in circumstance.
She, too. is of the stage world, and
she took poison in a fit of melancholy.
