WHEN Lora Rogers, character wom
an of the Alcazar Players, comes up the
mountain riding the old horse and
smoking a corncob pipe. In "The Trail
of the Lonesome Pine" this week, she
is doing some of the hardest work that
has fallen to her lot for many years.
The climb of the old horse up there
amongut the scenery with her on his
back is no joke. She knows that once
last season this same old nag took a
notion to a bit of grass he saw painted
on the back drop, and started over to

get It, with the result that the woman
who was playing Old Hon had a nar
row escape, and the audience got a
shock which wasn't mentioned In ad
vance by the press agent. She also
hates to smoke a pipe but these little
things are a part of the day's work
and she does both as if she were hav
ing the time of her young life. Crowds
are flocking to see this superb moun
tain play and the gorgeous scenic pro
ductlon of It at the Baker this week.
Manager Seaman now announces a
midnight matinee at the Baker New
Year's eve, and the performance will be
another big Western success, "The
Great Divide." The performance will
start Sunday night at 11 o'clock and
run until about 1 o'clock, thereby giv

an extraordinary dramatic production
probably the first event of its kind

Leo J. Kractenberg, of Smitiisonian
Institution, Says Collection of
Indian Relics From YV11
lamettee Valley Good.
Leo J. Frachtenberg. of the Smith
sonian Institution. Washington. D. C,
has completed arrangements for the
preparation of a catalogue of the rel
ics from early Indian tribes of the
Willamette Valley, which are now In
Portland's Museum at the City Hall.
This collection of Willamette Valley
Indian relics Is practically the only
one in existence. The catalogue will be
published with photographs In an offi
cial book. Work will be started next
month.
Mr. Frachtenberg also plans a cam
paign for the establishment of a well
organized and well-arranged museum.
He says he believes that the city has
the foundation for a wonderful museum
with the collection at the City Hall,
and believes that with the stuff rear
ranged In proper order and properly
displayed and increased by collections
now in private possession, the Portland
Museum can be made one Of the best
in the United States.
Work to Require Month.
A catalogue of the specimens in the
Museum at present will require about
a month to complete and when pub
lished, with other Willamette Valley In
dian history, will make a book of about
300 pages. The plan Is to have this
elaborately illustrated with photo
graphs. While this work Is on Mr.
Frachtenberg will urge the establish
ment of the Museum on a new basis.
"I believe," said Mr. Frachtenberg
yesterday, "that Portland has the foun
dation of a fine Museum. Aa It stands
now It is scattered about the City Hall.
The Smithsonian Institution Is conduct-
ins- extensive investigations of the In
dians of this part of the country and
plans to make a complete book of the
subject. This will go Into all the li
braries, schools, colleges and universi
ties of the country.
Work Requires Time.
"I believe there is a great deal more
which could be had for a properly or
ganized Museum. I believe there are
wagonloads of relics stored away in ai
tlos and barns In the state, and the
owners, I believe, would be glad to turn
them over to the Museum. It Is worth
trying."
Mr. Frachtenberg has been working
for several years among the Indians of
this state and Washington gatherlnl
nformation for the book he Is to issue.
He expects to have his work along this
line completed within a short time.
