(Special.) French opinion is highly indignant at the friendly reception accorded by Lloyd George to William Ran dolph Hearst, who was invited to luneheon the other day at Downing street. "The French haven't forgotten," said today's La Prez, "that they were often obliged to defend them selves against the papers controlled by Lloyd Georges friend of today, and that it was in the Hearst papers that the German staff published its false reports of Its victories and the other discouraging propaganda." La Prez supposes the British pre mier thinks to gain in the Hearst press what he has lost by the with drawal of support by the Northcliffe press, but warned. - him he has wounded France and aroused the hostility of Canada, where Hearst's organs encountered the bitterest hatred during the war. Hippodrome. I T has been a dozen years since i. Wolfe Gilbert, composer and song writer, visited Portland, and all those years he has been adding to the fatne which was already his when, as a very young man, he sang 1 his own compositions for Portland- ers. He wrote "Lily'of the Valley" and that rollicking song account of the-. "Robert E. Lee" and the lovely ballad, "'Out of the Cradle Into My Heart." "Lindy Lou" is also his, and a dozen more, everyone of them melodious. - Mr; Gilbert is headlining at the Hippodrome this week in a big-time act which is surcharged wth orig inality and good humor and the ap peal of husic. He sings some of his old successes, keeping up a running fire of pleasant chat between songs and recalling the old favorites most delightfully for the audience. As one or another of the songs beloved and popular some years ago are heard the audience cheers happily. Mr. Gilbert has some new songs, too, and a charming young girl, Fritzi Leyton, to sing them. Her voice is of surprising range and is sweet and full of melody.. She sings-one new Gilbert song, "Kentucky Echoes," which proves a -great riot. The act his heavy drinking. His mother had been making every effort to get him to straighten up and leave liquor alone. As soon as the shooting . was reported to Detective Lieutenant Thatcher, he aind Detectives Acker man and Horack started their in vestigations. The pistol used was found at the home of Dr. Can tril, who had taken possession of it as soon as he reached the boy's side in the Chetopa. apartments. They also "found the bullet and empty shell in Mrs. Whitney's bath room. The bullet had gone en tirely through the boy's body and struck the wall, falling to the floor beneath the bathtub. Mrs. Whitney Promises to Stay. It was reported to the police that Mrs. Whitney was planning to leave the city before they were informed of the shooting, but she promised iast night to remain here until tiie investigation .had been completed. Although young Wood was shot shortly after 12:30 in the morning it was nearly three hours later be fore he was removed to the hos pital. Miss Lindley told the police. During these three hours he lay on the bathroom floor he suffered ter ribly from the loss of blood. The young women used a bath towel in an effort to stop the flow of blood. Not until Mrs. Wood arrived was any effort made to get a physician, and it was some time later before Dr. Cantrfl reached the apartment, The. police pointed out last night that had they been called imme diately after the shooting, as should have been done, a physician would have arrived within a few minutes and the bor might have had a chance for his life. The police will continue their in vestigations .today in an effort to satisfy themselves beyond all doubt that the bullet wound was self-in flicted.

A NOVEL idea is back of the plot in "The Fakirs," which timely, tuneful musical comedy went on ai the Lyric theater yesterday after noon for the week'e run.; The , idea is original and because it is followed out consistently in the developmenl of the comedy it provides all the elements of real entertainment. The fakirs whose activities give the play its title role, are our old friends Mikeiand Ike, one a bellig erent son of Erin and the other a soft . spoken Hebraic philosopher. They form a questionable partner ship, wherein they eke out a living D? exhibiting from village to hamlet a mechanical doll which astonishes the natives by tts lifelike motions and speaking- voice. The doll is Cissy Dooley, who protests-against the deception but who feels she must help her father and his partner earn ineir living. The unexpected hap pens when Cissy falls in love with a dashing cavalier who happens to be a part of the spectators who watch her, and from this point on her father and Ike have a tempera mental doll on their hands. Their hoax on the public-' is discovered and the two fakirs are in a dilemma until saved by their o,wn nerve and the luck that attends- on them. , Another element of fun enters the story when the two fakirs admin ister a sleeping potion to a vamp who threatens to disrupt the happi ness of the mechanical dolly girl. They put the vamping person to sleep by a clever shifting of three glasses, one of which holds the lethal drug. . Mike and. Ike turn this episode into excellent comedy by making the various movings of (he glasses appear as if a game of checkers "were in progress. Howard Evans is the dashing hero who rescues her from life as a mechanical toy. Dorothy Raymond is a smart looking vamp and Jewel La Velle is the villain. Additional fun is given in the antics of Eddie Wright in his comedy role of Iny Blotz. Besiderj.the many changes and choruses by the Rosebud girls there are any number of diverting solos and dance specialties. Of these Clare Heath with the chorus sings "Moonlight," Howard Evans sings "My Girl Is Like a Rainbow," pretty Billie Bingham' contributes "'Taint Nothin' Else But Jazz," and Dot Raymond sings "Thrills," and the Lyric trio adds further melody.

That Pacific county eventually will he a second Tilla mook county is the prediction of J. R. Beck, county agricultural agent. The dairying industry it the Oregon county has grown in 13 years from an- annual production of $400,000 to over $2,000,000 each year. Pacific county is still much less than the original figure for the Oregon county, but efforts are being made to expand the industry at a more rapid rate. Although Pacific county still has a wealth of timber, lumbermen can begin to see the supply diminish and are looking for dairying to pay taxes after the timber fails to do so. Medford to Graduate 53.
