Cohan, and Harris Farcical Comedy Billed aa Panacea for Voea of "Tired Baalneaa Man." - Cohan & Harris, -who have made a reputation for producing- corking good plays of the lighter variety, are sponsoring the farcical comedy, "It Pays to Advertise." which opens to morrow night at the Heilig. The en gagement is for three nights, with a special matinee Saturday. This big play billed as one after our own hearts paid Portland a visit last season, and packed 'em into the theater, and sent folk away rejoicing. It is the work of Rol Cooper Megrue, author of "Under Cover," and Walter Hackett. It tells of the plunge into "business" taken bv an idle "little son -of the idle rich": how, in a few short weeks, he built up a business in soap 'worth hundreds of thousands of dol lars when he has no soap to sell - doing It all through advertising: how, w lien he had the orders, but no soap. he forced his millionaire soap-making father to buy out his "business," con sisting solely of a - trade-mark, for a cool half million; and how throtfgh his unexpected business acumen, he won. not only fortune, but the girl of his heart. The play Is - another "Get-Rich-Quick Wallingford" sort full of absurd busi ness difflcultles and laugh provocative. It is especially recommended -for the tired business man a mythical figure existent in the domain of theatricals. And it is good also for the tired busi ness man's wife and bis friends, and stenographer, and hired girl - and chauffeur, his tailor and his fellow-men. ' Devont Family. s Exchange.

U., will return Saturday from the National convention In Indian apolis, Ind., where she has won signal honors. Mrs. Kemp was elected the president of all the state presidents Of the Na tional "W. C.

W Case. SEATTLE, Wash., Dec 5. Claims to taling $175,000 have been filed against the city of Seattle by residents of Everett as the result of the invasion of Everett by Industrial-Workers of the World on a steamboat November 5, when two-citizens of Everett and five Industrial Workers were killed in a pistol battle at the Everett wharf. The claimants are Mrs. Grace R. Cur tiss, whose husband. Lieutenant Charles O. Curtiss. of the reserve corps of the National Guard of Washington, was killed in the fighting; the heirs of Jefferson Beard, chief Deputy Sheriff of Snohomish County, who waa also slain in the battle; Elmer Behrer and H. B. Blackburn, members of the Sheriff's posse,- who were wounded in resisting the landing of 'the -Industrial i Workers- on the Everett wharf-. Cur tiss and Beard were likewise members of the Sheriff's posse. Mrs. Curtiss asks $75,000: the heirs of Deputy Sheriff Beard J50.000, and Buehrer and Blackburn $25,000 each. The claims are based on the allega tion that the Seattle authorities are to blame for having permitted the In dustrial . Workers to leave here with the avowed intention of violating the city ordinance of Everett in the matter of street speaking. - Forty-two Industrial Workers, who are alleged to have participated in the Everett invasion and who are accused of unlawful assembly, stated through their attorney, when arraigned in court here today, that they would file sep arate demurrers to the complaints. The cases were continued to December 8. Escaped Convict Resentenced. SALEM. Or... Dec 5. (Special.)
