Francis X. Bushman and Beverly Bayne, well-known film etars. are to
open an engagement at the Heilig theater tonight in a mystery play,- "The
Master Thief," by Edward E. Rose, from the story by Richard Washburn

ing a tour in the spoken drama. Mr. Moroaco is one of the first to take the
favorable view of exploiting film stars in spoken plays.
That some will fail is a foregone conclusion, but those who were recruited
from the ranks of legitimate actors have everything in their favor, and to
this class Mr. Bushman -belongs, having had long and varied experience in
stock and road companies previous to his advent in the picture world.

JONES EDHE WITH SON
FRANTIC WIFE ASKS OFFICIALS
TO GET BOY BACK.
Woman Is Told Father Has Equal
Rights in Child Since Divorce
Is Annulled.
Though his wife, whom he found
had obtained a divorce a month ago
without his knowledge, refused to re
turn to Camp Dix. N. J., with him
when he got an annulment of the de
cree and sought a reconciliation. First
Lieutenant Alexander Jones took his
6-year-old son. Barnard, with him
yesterday as he boarded the morning
train for the east, where he must re
port for duty.
News of the departure first became
known in the office of District Attor
ney Evans when he was visited by the
frantic wife and mother, who sought
to invoke the arm of the law to re
turn her child. Nothing could be done,
for the decree of Circuit Judge Gatens
giving the children into the custody
of the mother had been revoked the
day before, and the father had a right
to the child equal with the claim of
te mother.
"I met him downtown yesterday
FOR MYSTERY PLAY TONIGHT.
afternoon," was the story of Mrs.
Jones. "He asked me to let him take
the boy back with him, and I refused.
He then grabbed the child by the arm
and took him from me by force."
The woman was frantic and was
creating a disturbance which was rap
idly drawing a crowd of Interested
spectators, when the husband quieted
her fears by assuring her he merely
wanted to visit with the lad and
would return him the following morn
ing. Inquiries at the Multnomah hotel
shmowed that he had "checked out"
for the morning train on the O.-W. R.
& N. Attorney Crawford, who repre
sents Mrs. Jones in the divorce action
now ' pending, learned from other
sources that Lieutenant Jones had
told friends he intended to leave the
city yesterday morning.
Attorney James J. Crossley, repre
senting Lieutenant Jones, said yes
terday that his client's step was with
out his advice and that he had no in
timation of the action.

((mHERE is a big black be

the telephone in a woman's tones
from the German Altenheim, or old
people's home, 2001 Division street
to 13esk Officer Bigelow at the po
lice station yesterday afternoon.
But Officer Bigelow thought too
much of his brothers of the force
to send any of them on such a mission
as that, so hb decided to let the
humane society handle the situation.
The result was that Ross Churchill,
state humane officer, and F. E. Wall
ing, reputed experts with 44 milli
meter guns, bombs and various other
high explosives, were dispatched to
the scene with all the articles neces
sary for catching, roping and hog
tieing an elephant. . bear or other
blood-thirsty animal.
However, when they arrived, the
bear had been frightened away by
the war-like demonstrations of Daniel
Desmond, an employe of the farm and
others at the home who had marshaled
themselves for a charge upon the
beasl before it ruined all the chances
for chicken dinners at the place for
the next six months.
The bear broke out of the chicken

Tabor, they reported.
"Was it a big bear?" one of the-resi-dents
of the home was asked,
"Was it big?" came the reply,
"look at that hole in the fence where
he went out," and he pointed to a
place where two panels had been
knocked down.
Officer Churchill and Poundmaster
Walling are reported to have looked
at the size of the hole in the fence.
Then they decided that the bear
could not be found.
Officers are at loss to account for
the appearance of the bear unless it
should have been a captive bear
which had made its escape from its
owner.

Tomorrow the third payment of
$25,000 will be turned over to the
state treasurer by L. H. Johnson, con
troller of the university, in behalf of
the board of directors. The state will
match it with an equal amount, and

In the conduct of legal cases at
