pany cdnclutTed its .engagement at' tiio
Marquam,Tbeater yesterday. As at itift
two pr'cVIoQiT'perormances", attendrinVe
was slight and so far as the Shiikes
pcarcan offerings are conc6rned, pdrr
haps it it, just a well. There are thWe
who will argue that the man who puts
on Shakaapeare and brings it out fn
Ihe great SKojstJs.doing.a, commendable
thing; that is the medium tnrough
which thousands of people are intro
duced to", the beneficial Shakespeare,
who otherwise 'might never meet him.
Possibly -so.- But it is not altogether
without foundation to conclude that
tcqualrttances. thus made will be easily
broken. To. thctse. .who. can .relish
Shakespeare his presence' is bound t(
seek them' but early In "life .and Hold'
them fast; Ndw to tlie point: Is" any

ftage of fancy?-. Do -we. not prefer to
fceep oyr Shakcspwtrean acquaintances
ts we have met;thern "he.tween the ppet
pages? Well, inaybc not so, but 'ar
least wc do not wish them entrusted
io the stage -where hopeless mediocrity
b at Jarge. Illuminate them with the
:ouch of genius or let them remain the
creatures of our fancy, that would
probably be the verdict of the theater
goers, could a poll be taken.
One of the most delightful of Shake
ipeure's comedies is "The Merchant of
Venice." There is a kind of magic In
the very name and magic Jn plenty is
llffused through the whole. Mr. Han
tord and his assistants fared some bet
:er with the play than they did with
'Othello," yet It must be admitted they
fell short of realizing a satisfactory
r adequate representation of the piece.
To the credit of Mr. Hanford though,
t can be said that his efforts are con
Hentious and dignified. JCot once does
hp seek to touch the tightly-drawn and
ever-ready chord of superficial ap
jilause by grotesque, mannerisms of

EShplrc Tiisalcr last-night. .For 'tufo long
weeks those who love good, old-fashioned
melodrama have been patiently waiting
for a play that would chill and warm their
hearts in turn. In "The Sidewalks of New
York they expected a show that would
be so thrilling and replete with so many
exciting climaxes as to make up for the
time lost while the Pollards were at the
Empire.
But, alas! they were sadly disappointed;
tnerc was only one murder. And to make
the matter all the worse and even out
rageous from the standpoint of the cal-
lery gods, not once did the report from
some murderous pistol ring out last night;
ine one lonesome murder was accom
plished by the medium of a knife.
Otherwise the show at the Emoire last
night was good. Enough comedy was in
troduces! to Keep the gallery gods from
leaving in disgust. This fell to Urce
Greengage Dobbins, just from the coun-
try. Tvno reauy caused many hearty
laughs. ThJs part was played by Mack
Swain. Dobbins was a green farm hand
who wnt to New York and won both
fame and a -fair lady. He outwitted the
bunco men at every stage of the gatne
and did much to clear the name of the
heroine Cora Swain, as Ethel Douglas,
was good, as was Dorothy Fairfax as
Grace Douglas. The other characters were
fairly well taken.

' With Portland.
HOOD RIVER, Or., Feb. 17. (Spe
cial.)' A big mas meeting was held
this afternoon In the opera-house to
take action on the proposal to divide
Wasco County with a county scat at
Hood River- Judge Henderson was
made chairman of the meeting and
Councilman" McDonald secretary. The
meeting was unanimously In favor of
county division and Indorsed A. A.
Jayne Tor nomination for Representa
tive to present the bill. If elected.
TWo proposals were before the meet
ing' iboklng to the creation of the now
county. One Is that the boundary line
be put between Moslef and The Dalles;
and the other that It be placed this
side of The "Dalles and extended down
to the Big Sandy River In Multnomah
County, provided the matter could be
s . SURPRISED DOCriQR
Illustrating the Effect of Food.
The remarkable adaptability of Grape
Xuts food to stomachs so disordered that
they will reject everything else, is Illus
trated by the case of Mrs. H , of Ra
cine. W-ls.
"Two years ago," she says. "I was at
tacked by a stomach trouble so serious
that for jl Ipng time I could not take
much of any sort of food. Even the vari
ous kinds -prescribed Jby-thc doctor pro
duced most acute pain.
"We then got some Grape-Nuts food,
and you may Imagine my surprise- "and
delight when I fouhjl "that I" could." eat it
with p. relfsh.and without the slightest
distress. . ' .,.
"When the doctor heard of It he told
me to tike. .several small portions- each
day, because he feared 1 would grow
'tired of it, as I had of .all .other food.
"But. , to his astonishment (and that of
everybody else). J .did not tire of Grape
Nuts, and became better day by day, till
after some weeks, my stomachy entirely
recovered and. I was able to eat anything
my appetite craved.
"My nerves, which had become so
weakened that I feared I would become
Insane, were also restored by the Grnpe,
Xutfc food In connection with Poatum.
Coffee which has become our table bev
erage. 1 'knnreclate most cratefnllv and

satisfactorily arranged with the citi
zens and authorities of that county.
Judge Henderson, In a ringing speech
said that Hood River should be more
closely Identified with Multnomah than
Wasco, as Its Interests are nearer
those of the former than -the latter and
It was time to break away from
Wasco and organize a county more in
touch with the progressive ideas of
Portland.
After discussion it was decided to
let the . Mosler people determine
whether they would be in the old
county or the new 'one. There Is In-'
tense Interest here In the matter. Hen
derson and McDonald "were elcted per
manent president and secretary- of the
Cascade County Association, formed
for' the purpose of creating- the new
county. -
