' of Life on Stage.
PACIFIC UNIVERSITY. Forest Grove.
Or., May 13. (Special.) George I
Baker, manager of the Baker Theater,
or Portland, addressed the students o
Pacific University this morning at
chapel on the subject of "The Stage and
Its Glitters Revealed."
He spoke briefly on the popular con
ception of the actor and then revealed
some of the hardships of the stage. He
said that in his business, as in every
thing else, a good education is essential
to the highest success.
The stage, he said, . is a wonderful
place for those who succeed and a
dreadful one for those who fail. He
' named egotism, conceit and vanity as
some of the requisites for success. The
actor must think that ho can act his
part better than anyone else, he must
be conceited to show conviction, and
vain to look the part. He said that
the actor should havo personality, good
looks and ability and that the last was
the most Important.
ITe spoke of the temptations of the
profession and emphasized that a man
or woman must have a strong charac
ter, if successful.

PHIL S. BATES THANKED
LIBERTY BKLL TRIP DIE TO AID
OF FESTIVAL MANAGER.
Portland Man Responsible More Than
Anyone Else Probably for Historic
Relic Being: Sent West.
Now that Philadelphia city officials
finally have condescended to send the
Liberty Bell to the World's Fair at San
Francisco with a visit to Portland and
other cities en route, recognition is be
ing given the man who really initiated
the movement to bring the bell to the
Coast and whose efforts probably more
than any other are responsible for the
opportunity that the people of the West
will have of seeing one of the coun
try's most sacred relics.
That man is none other than Phil S.
Bates, manager of the J915 Rose Fes
tival, who as early as two years ago
took a party of young women to Phila
delphia to impress on the authorities
there the desirability of sending the
bell to the Coast.
Charles C. Moore, president of the
exposition, has been aware of Mr.
Bates' valuabe efforts in this connec
tion and in a letier received by Mr.
Bates yesterday said so in the follow
ing words:
"As you did so much to show the
authorities and the people of Philadel
phia how anxious we were to have the
Liberty Bell brought to the Pacific
Coast and be shown at the exposition
I am sure that you will rejoice with us
at the successful endeavors to obtain it.
"I wish to express to you for the
exposition our appreciation of your ef
fective interest, which I feel con
tributed largely to the final successful
result."
WATCHMAN IS ACCUSED

FORGERY OF 48 CHECK.

Detectives Follows.
Gustav Kooka, alias Carl Cereikoo
ski, 886 Weldler street, who has been
in the employ of the Doernbecher Man
ufacturing Company as night watch
man, was arrested yesterday on
charges of forgery by lietectlves
Goltz and Abbott. Kooka is said to
have attempted to cash a forged check
at Meier & Frank's store for $468.75,
bearing the signature of F. S. Doern
becher, president of the manufacturing
company, for which he was working.
Kooka is said to have obtained the
check, which had been made out to
the A. L. Palmer estate, but was un
signed, from tho office of the company
on the night of Sunday, May 2. He
Is said to have attempted to cash ttae
check at a saloon on Second and Yam
hill streets Monday, and the saloon
keeper at that time advised him to
get the check signed.
After th man was arrested a blank
book and other papers, found In his
room, showed someone -has been prac
ticing writing1 the name of Mr. Doern
techer. The nime. was written sev
eral times in the book and once on
an envelope. The name of the A.;L.
Palmer estate, which was indorsed on
tho back of the check, supposedly by
Kooka, was also written once on some
paper. It Is believed that the man
used the signature of Mr. Doernbecher
signed to a check which he received in
payment of his wages as copy in mak
ing the alleged forgery.
The manufacturing company was in
formed that Kooka had the check yes
terday morning by the man's landlord,
P. Tauschor. who is employed by the
company as a fireman. Police then
were notified. Kooka had promised to
purchase a new hat for Mrs. F.

way that Mr. Tauscher learned of his
intentions. . .
APer his arrest Kooka said that
he found the check in the engine-room.
