16 TIIE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, FEBRUARY 9, 1920 MURDER MYSTERY GLEWS ARE ELUSIVE Portions of Body Used " Compile Description. to SEARCH IS CONTINUED Qncst in Gulcli, However, Leads to Theory That Fragments AVere Xot Tossed From Auto. The man whose mysterious murder was revealed by the human frag ments pick'ed up In Sullivan's gulch late Saturday, was a man of fair com plexion, about five feet ten Inches, or six feet -in height, weighed about 180 pounds and was 30 or 40 years of agre. This was the description prepared by Deputy Coroner Ijco Goetsch. Lieutenant of Detectives Goltz and Detectives Leonard and Tackaberry yesterday, judging from the portions of the body which were found. The efforts of the detectives to eolve the mystery of the brutal mur der were unsuccessful yesterday, al though practically every available man In the department was working on different phases of the investiga tion. Farther Search Is Made. Detectives Tackaberry and Leonard . under the leadership of Lieutenant Goltz. made a further search of Sul livan's gulch yesterday in tlie hope of discovering further portions of the body, but were unsuccessful. The Kit Ich was thoroughly searched un derneath the Grand-avenue bridge where the portions of the body were discovered. The officers carried their search up the gulch as far as Twelfth street. Other pieces of newspapers which ' had been used in bundling up the lections of the body found Saturday, were obtained and were taken to de tective headquarters. The detectives also secured some pieces of string used in tying the bundles and a small sample of sawdust in which tne por tions of the body had apparently been previously packed. 1 All the newspapers were carefully scrutinized in the hope of finding some writing or other clew which might lead to the identity of the murderer. This scrutiny, however, failed to reveal anything of value. W. E. Clifford Is Missing. The authorities were asked yes terday afternoon to determine if the dead man was W. E. Clifford, who has been mising from his home in a houseboat at the foot of California street, since January 31 of this year. The description of Mr. Clifford as given to Detective Ackerman corres ponds in a measure to that of the murder victim. Mr Clifford was 41 years -of age. C feet 1 inch in height, and weighed ISO pounds. He had a light com plexion, dark hair, brown eyes and a brown mustache. Check Made on List of Missing. ;As another phase of the investiga tion Lieutenant Goltx began making a check on men who had recently been reported missing. A check of the list, however, failed to reveal anything. ..The only new development yester day was the fact that the packages apparently had been thrown from the bridge at different times. If this is the case it is believed that the crime could not have been committed far from the bridge. The theory that the packages might have been thrown from a passing au tomobile is discredited owing to the fact that the sidewalk on the bridge prevents an automobile from ap proaching near the guide rail of the bridge. gorgeously costumed, who aid him in I carrying out his illusions.

Mr. West says that the efforts of the Boy Scout directors in the east are largely turned toward interesting the children of aliens. 'We are going to take advantage of the offer of the American Legion to provide us, with scoutmasters," he continued. "Small towns of the west, particularly, are in need of more at tention, as they have not gone after the work with hte same degree of thoroughness that characterizes the eastern village. "We are going to celebrate .our tenth anniversary on February S and 52 national magazines will have ar ticles in them on the work.

A score of men, following the showing of a motion picture, the scene of which was laid in Ireland in the latter part of the 19th century, created a panic in a crowded theater on Market street, in downtown San Francisco, tonight, when they broke into the projecting-room, did considerable damage to two projecting machines, tore up two films, took two others and smashed many rows of seats, ac cording to a report made to the police by Frank A. McDonald, manager of the theater. Thirty patrolmen, an swering a riot call quelled the dis turbance, but made no arrests. Immediately after the showing of the' picture and as the audience was filing out of the theater, according to McDonald, the men, who had obtained seats near the projecting-room, gath ered together and with a shout ran to the projecting-room. Their shouts and noise created confusion in the audience and several women fainted and were trampled upon; none seri ously, McDonald said "I had a private showing of the film earlier before two prominent Irishmen," McDonald told the police. nna nf thftm W Tl O t h 1 Tl IT fkbiection- able in the film. The other objected anernoon. several song and dance to the scenes which showed pigs in : selections follow close upon one an the parlor and chickens walking up j other in the final minutes of the Ruegger and Grette Ardine to capture most- of It. Miss Ruegger comes to us each season and always with a distinguished offering. Last season a vocalist had a place in her act. This year she is alone, save of course for her orchestra conductor, Edmund Lichtenstein, who is her husband. Marked musical color and atmosphere are shown in Miss Ruegger's playing She interests and holds her mixed audience and that is a great deal in itself. ' The audience listened grate fully and appreciatively to playing in which harmony had not been sacri ficed to a showing display of tech nique. Miss Ruegger played Schu bert's "Moment Musicaf" in sparkling mood and Elgar's "Salut d'Amour," was given a sympathetic interpreta tion. A gay, spirited treatment of Pepper's "Klve's Dance" brought much applause and for an encore she played a quaint and charming, pickaninny lullaby "Bye Lo." There is nothing spectacular about Elsa Ruegger. She is thoroughly an artist and offers her wares quietly, modestly and sincerely, with an occasional quick pleased! smile of response. As for Grette Ardine, she does with her feet what Miss Ruegger does with her fingers, makes pictures and weaves stories, according of course to your own sense of imagery. There's one dance she offers, of Chinese in ference. She wears an idealized ori ental costume and whirls so madly and dexterously through a dance that she electrifies. She stops and steps out of the dance atmosphere so sud denly on occasions as to be startling. She has a splendid young body, vitally alive and dance-mad. She glows with the magnetism of purpose and genius. Rapidity of motion and acrobatic ad venture mark her terpsichorean ac tivities and she startles, amazes ajid charms. Her adornments are few blit fine and her legs are like Katisha's elbow in only one respect, worth going miles to see. Grette has a partner, two of them in fact. One is Wallace Bradley, a skillful, agile man dancer who wears clothes. The other is Irving Fisher, who gets a lot of tinkly trills and runs out of the piano. The act is handsomely staged, with young Fisher at the piano while the other two step In and out of the pic ture to dance. Thomas Duray the man who runs the opry-house, 'edits the paper, pre sides over the council, is constable, fire .department and a worker in the church, returns to make us chuckle again with his act "For Pityvs Sake." Duray is a clever character actor. As manager of the. town theater, housing a lurid melodrama, he sits on a shelf over the stage and acts as a one man orchestra, stage electrician, stage carpenter, property man, office force and treasurer, with fearful and weird results piling thick and fast on his head. His scurrying up and down the ladder leads to dire mishap and his. fall into a mess of paste is just as funny as it was a year ago. . A fine company supports Mr. Duray. Coletta Ryan is a beauty, one of the tall Gibsonesque girls and she sings high lark-like notes, and wears blue and gold almost dress and has an air of being the belle at the party. Her partner is Leta Orlob, who is animated and vivacious and has feather fan, a golden voice and cute little tricks. Leta plays the piano for one song Coletta sings, and the rest of the time they do duets, full of i harmony that results from two indi vidually good voices. Personal ap peal of youth and high spirits and looks, plus clothes, make their bid too. in this girl number. Kenney and Hollis are rah rah lads, at least one of them is. The other just acts as a buffer for the college boy's jokes and chatter. The jokes are new, the chatter mirth provoca tive and an air of spontaneity and intimate friendliness pervades "Freshy's" fooleries. He offers a con vulsing picture as a moneky, and later burlesques an esthetic dancer, iioaiing ana leaping m gauze drapery ana tooting a horn. Dick Duffey and Betty Caldwell carry on a telephonic flirtation which elicits appreciation from folk In the audience who recognize the lines, and then Dick and Betty meet beside a lamp post and exchange confidences. Bright and timely are the confidences, and blessed with novelty. Lucille and Ccckie, a green parrot and a white cockatoo, open the bill with their charming mistress, an English woman who has patiently taught the smart little birds more conversational English and accom plishments than a lot of people have on tap. The bill closes with a matinee Wednesday. Lyric. A NOVEL musical climax is given to the new show at the Lyric theater whloh n no-i n 1 va.t..inTi V. " J V .V. . UrtJ the stairs in private homes.

However, I deleted some scenes to w-hich he objected and thought there could be no possible objection to the other." McDonald estimated the damage to the theater and machines at more than (1000, exclusive of the value of the four films. Blackstone, Magician, Is Entertainer, Not Mystic. Programme at Anditoriam Full of Snap and Clevernraa. HIS Is what I call raising the the clever magician who entertained with a mystical programme in the municipal auditorium last night. He was Just in the act of coaxing a two spot of spades to emerge from a pack of cards resting in a glass tum bler. It was only one of the many bits of juggling he performed with the deck. Blackstone is a most likable ma gician. He furnishes just the sort of old-fashioned legerdemain that was In vogue 20 or 30 years ago, enter taining parlor magic, with elaborate gold and shimmery equipment and . lacquered cabinets. The best part of it all is that there is not a flaw there is nothing cheap and there is nothing approaching the mystic about the show. The magician himself is lively and mappy,- the porformance does not drag with long explanations of some expose of the mystic world. Blackstone's equipment is elaborate. Be has a large company of assistants. W. M. Seward Buried Today. Funeral services for Walter M. Sew ard, proprietor of the Seward hotel.

The price paid is said to have been in excess of 130,040. show. "Cabaret de Luxe" is the name of the latest offering by. Keating and Flood. ' If comes in twos. There are two comedians, two "crazy" waiters and two trouble-making figures veiled in mystery. Ben Dillon and Al Franks provide most of the com edy with the assistance of Will Rader. Clarence Wurdig and Blllie Bingham. "When You Dance" is the first song number in line, with Olive Finney and the chorus warbling. "Daddy, You've Been a Mother to Me," sung by Clar ence Wurdig, is next. Then follows "Who's the Wife of the Man in the Moon?" by Ca,rlton Chase and "Yarna Yama Blues" by Billie Bingham. All four punctuate the comedy action of "Cabaret de- Luxe." The opening numbers are "I'm Irish," "Why Do They Call 'Em Wild Women T' and "Old Man Jazz." A cabaret scene, with cabaret ac tion, brings the piece to an end. Will Rader sings "What's the Use of Kickin'T" with the chorus ignoring the suggestion and blithely kicking away in the refrain. Hazel Crosby and Leslie George dance the Morris dance with grace, and Olive Finney and Clarence Wurdig sing "My Baby's Arms." Ben T. Dillon and Al Franks contribute a few old-style steps that are well received. A splash of red in the rear rank heralds the arrival of Betty White, who has not been seen here before. A goodly number of specialties are ex pected for the chorus girls' contest on Friday night. NE of those worth-while adven tures in the theater, rare in a i playgoer's experience is "Abraham Lincoln", at the Baker theater. It is a play revealed in a series of episodes in Lincoln's public career, written in poetic spirit and imagery and bearing the zeal and understanding of the his torian. The Baker players put on an excellent treatment of the environ ment of the civil war days with Brod- erick O'Farrell added to the cast to portray the role of the great emanci pator, Romantic interest attaches in the period of its presentation, the '60's, and the costumes, manners and ethics of that day are faithfully adhered to. A vigorous drama has been made of incidents in Lincoln's life and through it all runs the thread of the theory of reincarnation. The theory is suggested and advanced constantly that Lincoln's soul has returned in the body of Woodrow Wilson. Comparisons in the acts of the two men under similar stress are pictured and similarity of purpose and deed 4s pointed out Inspirational of greater tolerance, greater kindness, greater humanity and broader vision is the story. An intensely dramatic baring of the Lin coln soul is made, reverently, sym pathetically and with keen insight. We are shown his honesty and single ness of purpose, his courage of con viction, his conquest of all obstacles and a dozen fine, rugged and human characteristics of the man Lincoln. Rules of technique are not observed in the play. It is a narrative started by an old man in his drawing room, told to his daughter and her fiance. The story he tell is a romance of hie mother. She had known Lincoln and he had helped her solve a big prob lem and united her to her own sol dier wain. As the old man tells the story the lights go down and when they go on the story he tells df the long ago is enacted. When it is finished we return to the drawing room back to 1920. The episodes are concentrated in the White House, where Lincoln is depicted in picturesque, often humor ous and more often pathetic scenes, conflict with cabinet members, in a touching scene with the southern girl whose brother has been caught as a spy, in another moment of uplifting democracy with a negro lad who wants to join the northerners. A moment of tremendous pathos is when Lincoln pardons the spy Another is when he leaves, at the play's closing, for Ford's theater, with Mrs. Lincoln putting his shawl about his shoulders and his gentle badinage. The audience presages his murder at the theater and naturally this episode is thrilling and of dramatic effect. Broderlck O'Farrell in the title role is as eloquent in the physical counter part of the character as he is compell lng in the presentation of the moods and manners of the Emancipator. He gives a splendid performance, human to the core, mellow, picturesque of course, but most of all soulful and very real. Claire Sinclair is delightfully natu ral and womanly as Mary Todd Lin coln, the wife, and the crinolines and hairdress of the '60s are eminently1 becoming to her. Verna Felton plays the southern girl of today, and also of the '60s. A fine piece of acting it is, too, of emotional qualities and strongly dra matic She, too, is' charming in the hoop skirts and poke bonnets. John G. Fee plays with skill and assurance both the modern soldier and the sol dier who in Lincoln's day won the little southern belle. George Webster and George Taylor are a rare combi nation of acting excellence, Taylor as a bishop and Webster as his brother, who tells the narrative in the pro logue. Later these two contribute splendid portraits, Taylor as General Grant and Webster as the war demon, Stanton. Irving Kennedy is a moving figure as the spy. William Lee does a fine piece of work, first as a young negro patriot and later as a heroic hurt soldier returned to his darky mammy after she had mourned his death. The negro mammy is played ad mirably by Barbara Haaland. Lee Millar adds interest as Lincoln's pri vate secretary. The play is well staged and faith ful in detail. A special programme of tone pictures of the north and south by the orchestra pre.erves the atmo sphere charmingly. The cast: . . The Bishop George R. Taylor HEALER IS COMING James Moore Hickson Due in Portland in Few Weeks. DEAN HICKS TELLS WORK Power to Heal Body, Mind and Spirit Borne Out, Assert ". Ministers. James Moore Hickson, a healer of the Episcopal church, will be in Port-' land within the next few weeks. This announcement was made yes terday by Dean R. T. T. Hicks of St. Stephen's pro-cathedral. He spoke on "The Revival of Healing in the Church" and his sermon was one of a number which will be given pre paratory to Mr. Hickson's arrival in Portland. "Quiet throngs of people mark the ministty of James Moore Hickson declared Dean Hicks. "The church is awakening to the - great potential power she has for the healing of body and soul. Under this new inspiration many are finding help in their bodily infirmities. But all this is secondary, when once comes the quickening touch of God s spirit. No one claims cures : there is no sense of opposition to the work of the doctor, for Luke was the beloved physician.' But in addition to all the other helps that God has given, the church, through her ministers, is at tempting to bring the power of prayer to bear on all those in need of aid. mentally, morally or spiritually. LOVE fjROWTH, IS ASSERTION Failure to Develop in Spirit Causes Divorce, Says McEIveen. Divorces and juvenile delinquency both are caused in many cases by the failure of persons to grow in propor tion to their wife or husband or to their children, according to the ser mon preached yesterday morning by Dr. Wriliam T. McEIveen of the First Congregational church. Its subject was "Friends of God." Dr. McEIveen Introduced his sermon with the following scripture: " 'Henceforth I call you friends, said Jesus. The eleven disciples have conferred upon them a new title. They are initiated into a higher de gree In the free-masonry of their fel lowship with Jesus. They are raised to the exalted distinction of being friends of Jesus. "To gain this honor the first dis ciples studied and labored long," said Dr. McEIveen. "It was at the end of their three years of training that Jesus bestowed upon them this ap pellation. We do not immediately be come an expert in love any more than we become an expert in music or elec tricity. "One of the reasons for unhappy marriages and divorces is the fadt that one or both of the married pair do not grow, bo they have nothing new to give to each other. If the married pair are to be friends to the end of life's pilgrimage the wooing and winning must be enjoyed day after day while life lasts. If the two friends are to really enjoy and be en riched by their friendship they must frequently express their regard for and faith in each other. True friend ship does not need repair, but it needs renewal." PIETY SOMETIMES OVERDOXE Amusements Are Not All Sinful. Says Rev. G. H. Bennett. Rev. George H.

ASSISTED by 26 women singers from the Monday Musical club, Lucien E. Becker gave an enjoyable organ recital yesterday afternoon in the public auditorium. The numbrr of paid admissions amounted to 883, the fourth largest number of auditors since this series of Sunday afternoon recitals was begun on October 5, 1919. Mr. Becker played organ selections embracing the works of Robyn, Yon, MacDowell, Bach,. Adams, Debussy, Gigoit and one composition by Mr. Becker, entitled "Ritornello, opus It, No. 1." This latter number is a pretty one, of pleasing originality and treat ment. The Bach "Toccata and Jr igue, in D Minor." was the most classical. difficult to play on the list, and it was presented with much musical ability, and with due regard to its solemn high traditions. Quite a popu lar number was Adams ioly city, an air that most people know and its lovely registration made it especial lv attractive. so much so that an extra number was demanded and-Mr. Becker responded with a dainty organ minuet.

JUST what, in the mind of the aver age person, is the big lesson America has learned in the world war? The answer is to be found in the feature photoplay, "The World Aflame," showing at the Hippodrome for tlie first of the week. A vivid picture is -given of the workings of the red revolutionists and a direct appeal is made to the . American spirit. Not only is the problem of the laboring man taken up, but also that of the employer, and the developments suggest that the two get together and by "profit-sharing'; solve the diffi culty. Frank Keenan is featured as the author and producer of the play. Five frivolous maids and two co medians form the ''Revue Comique," which is "the headline attraction of the vaudeville bill. The girls are seated before their dressing rooms and the numerous changes of cos tume are made in full view of the audience. A number of clever sing ing, dancing and violin specialties make up the programme. . Edward J Lambert, all done up as a modern Beau Brummel, saunters onto the stage and casually invites all the women folks to take a good look, for in his own mind there's noth ing more to be desired by any woman. He's a right royal gloom dlspeller, He can "fiddle," play the piano, sing and has a host of funny stories all of which he hands out with a fund of good humor and deviltry which is infectious. Triplets, "trim, teeming, tawney," trained in the manly art of self-de-, fense, are William, Jennings and Bryan Taylor, who give an interest ing exhibition of their art. A num ber of well-known "holds" are Illus trated and an original dance showing pugilistic pesing. A boxing bout con cludes their act, which is clean-cut and snappy.

I gospel; so they add to the ten com mandments, and assume a wisdom more refined than that of the Lord himself. "This is seen in some religious tra ditions and dogmas. Some things by them are condemned, as sins "worthy of everlasting punishment, which in themselves are not sins, when viewed in the light of the law and gospel. "Among these are some modern amusements and habits of personal adornment. Christian people found guilty of these offenses may be ex pelled from the church, and presum ably excluded from heaven Itself. They should not be classed among acts sinful In themselves, but rather as things which are not expedient. Saint Paul, speaking on this subject. said: 'AH things are lawful unto me, but all things are not expedient." Some acts are sinful, while others are only inexpedient. Christians should carefully note this difference." srXDAT SCHOOL DRIVE IS OX Young Crnsader Addresses Trinity Church Congregation. In connection with the "drive" for new Sunday school pupils at Trinity Episcopal church, George Walker, a boy member of that school, in a neat speech, addressed the congregation from the church chancel yesterday morning, and reported good progress made. He said the Sunday, February 1, attendance at the Sunday school numbered 75 children and yesterday that it had reached 98. "We have started a campaign to get as many new scholars as pos sible," continued Master Walker, "and we wish each of our young members to bring one friend to Sunday school. By this plan we hope to double and perhaps quadruple our school mem bership. We ask each member of this congregation to send children here." Friday night there will be two Valentine parties for children at Trinity church parish house, and an attractive programme for entertain ment is being arranged. Small chil dren will be entertained in the early part of the evening, and older chil dren up to Id P. M.

A. men, Kiuea py Turkish brigands near Aintav, Syria, the morning of February 2, it is be lieved here to a certainty that Rev. and Mrs. W. E. Rambo. formerly of Klamath Falls and Baker, or., are undoubtedly safe. For a time, it was thought that they, being in that vi cinity, might have been th; victims. As published yesterday in a ais- patch given out at Washington, D. C, the two Y. M. C. A. men were mur dered while assisting to convoy re lief supplies. Grave fears were en tertained here by the friends of Rev. and Mrs. Rambo, who are doing mis sionary work In Syria, as to their safety. It had been reported at first that three persons had been murdered. but it seems tb have been wen es tablished by dispatches from official sources that the two "Y" men were the sole victims.
