WILL LOOK OVER GROUND
President of Oregon Commission Ex
pects to Select Place for Erection -of
Oregon or All-Xorthwestern
Building at Exposition.
Jefferson Myers, president of the Ore
Ron Jamestown Kxposition Commission,
left last night for Norfolk, Va., to look
into the proposed participation of Oregon
in the Jamestown Exposition next year.
Mr. Myers goes empowered by the com
mission to represent this state in nego
tiations with the exposition company
looking to the assignment of a site for
an Oregon building or a joint Northwest
building in which Oregon, Washington,
Idaho and Montana may decide to make
exhibits.
President Myers oes East by way of
Omaha and will return about December
1 by way of New Orleans and San Fran
cisco. While in the East he will confer
with the passenger and traffic managers
of all the transcontinental railway lines
with a view of procuring as low rates
as possible between the West, East and
South during the exposition period. From
local railroad officials Mr. Myers has let
ters of introduction to practically all the
big railroad men of the East who are in
charge of Western traffic, and this, to
gether with his own knowledge of the
men, is expected to accomplish a great
deal toward the reduction of rates in
the interests of Western travel while the
country Is on the exposition move.
"1 shall do everything possible while
in the Mast to induce the railroads to
make special exposition rates for both
passenger and freight. In the Interests
of the Northwest," said Mr. Myers be
fore leaving. "If Oregon and the other
Northwest states will erect a suitable
building at Jamestown and Install such
an exhibit as they are capable of show
ing and should show, and the railroad
rates are reduced to favor travel between
the Kast and the West, the advertising
we shall get win start a "Westward move
ment without parallel in the history of
Immigration.
"I am going East not only to represent
Oregon in arranging for an exhibit at
Jamestown, but I intend to have some
thing to say to the press of the country
from the lakes to New Orleans about
Oregon and Oregon's resources. I expect
1o be back about December 1 and will
then be able to report on what it will
cost to make a creditable exhibit and one
that will get results. Oregon already has
enough on hand to make a highly satis
factory exhibit, and this, with what may
be easily gotten together next Spring and
Summer, will open the eyes of the East
to what the possibilities of this country
really are."
Late yesterday a reply was received
from Governor Albert E. Mead, of Wash
ington, in answer to the official letters
sent out by Secretary John H. Stevenson,
of the Oregon commission. Inviting the
states of Washington, Idaho and Montana
to participate in a Joint Northwest build

calling the subject to the attention of
the Washington Legislature at its com
ing session in January. Replies from the
Governors of Idaho and Montana are ex

The joint exhibits plan has met with
favor everywhere and it is believed that
the other three states will readily adopt
it. The advantages of joint representa
tion on the part of the Northwest states
are generally recognized, and President
Myers is very enthusiastic in the belief
that its feasibility will appeal to the other
states so forcibly that their Legislatures
will make adequate appropriations at the
sessions this Winter.

"Coited States Marshal Reed Is Held Up
Late at Night and Compelled to Prove
His Identity.
BERKELEY GIRL ON THE STAGE
Talk With Warda Howard, Leading Woman at the Lyric,
Who is a Real College " Widow "By Arthur A. Greene
TO begin with, she's a real beauty
with the figure of an artist's model.
These qualities are not indispens
able to the success of a young woman on
the stuge but they're mightily helpful.
"Warda Howard's face and form would
command attention In any company. She
has a voice that many a Broadway star
might envy. It Is pliable, rich and melo
dious as a violin. She has not learned
the lesson of using It to the best advan
tage on the stage but In conversation it
Ls a voice of infinite possibilities of light
and shade.
But best of all Warda Howard is de
cidedly intelligent, and there's none too
much of that commodity In stageland.
Naturally well endowed mentally, she has
had unusual educational opportunities.
Since "The College Widow" Is coming so
soon it occurs to me to say, appropriately
I believe, that Miss Howard is the type
of a girl which all college men affection
ately remember as a college "widow." I'm
sure ehe'd be a success in that role,
given r little more stage training, for
she's one to the life.
All Berkeley students of the past five
years will remember "Teddy" Howard,
class of 'H. daughter of Prefessor
Howard, dean of romance languages. She
isn't a sorority girl, for papa doesn't ap
prove, any more than he approved her
choice of the stage but she was a moving
spirit in all matters of interest to the
Berkeley under-graduate body.
Before her college course she graduated
from grammar school had a year at a
finishing Institution and a year of travel.
Four yeans at Berkeley and two on the
stage that's the career of Warcta
Howard to date. She made her llrst
essay at acting with James Neil at the
Liberty Theater. Oaklund, in the Winter
of 1904. She met Mr. and Mrs. James
Nell at a college function and they,
having heard of her no small fame as an
amateur in Berkeley theatricals, asked
her to appear with them for a week at
the Liberty in Oakland.
I met her for the first time In her little
dressing room at the Lyric tlie other day
and received the information I have given
you. Site was trying to enforce dis
cipline on an obstreperous Boston ter
rier which is her prMe. and between
scolding the dog and talking to me she
revealed the history of her life. Her
manner of tolling it was naive and highly
interesting.
"It strikes me as something of a joke
when people are good enough to tell me
I have prospects." said she. "Why. it has
only been within the last two months
that I seriously considered making act
ing a life profession. Recently I've begun
to think I shall. Flattery doesn't ap
peal to me a bit. I don't like to he told
gush but I've been holding a closed ses
sion with myself lately and have 'con
cluded that since I'm in. the water Isn't
half bad and that I'll stay.
"Sometimes I've gotten beastly tired
wandering through 'three a day' hunting
for "me lost cheild" or a recreant hus
band or saving heroic lovers as the cur
tain took the fall. I've longed to be
back with dear old dad and the campus
and the 'ra rah' boys and girls and then
my nerve would come back and I'd take
a fresh grip, burn another bridge and
continue as an 'actor lady.'
"Really you know.the annals of my life
on the boards. I believe that's the cor
rect way to begin Isn't it? Well they
wouldn't fill a large book, only a small
volume, one of about half a page.
"You see I had taken a lot of in-

terest in Berkeley theatricals. Was al
ways up to my eyes in something of that
kind and then 'boning like all possessed
to catch up in my studies. Vll one
night I met Mr. and Mrs. James Xeill at
some college affair. They had heard of
me and asked me if I'd like to play a
part in The Parisian Romance, which
they were preparing for at the Liberty
Theater in Oakland. DatViie was away.
else I'd probably been locked up; but I
was delighted with the idea and agreed.
What do you think they gave me? Bar
oness Chevrial: Can you imagine it? I
must have been something excruciating.
But the college people came in droves to
see me act and I've since convinced my
self that Mr. Nelll had a deep and sinister
design in giving me the chance. He
wanted Berkeley patronage. Well he
got it that week. I certainly drew my
salary into the house for the sole and
only reason that every one of those stud
ents was crazy to see what 'Teddy'
Howard would be like in really real show.
"When the week was over I went back
to school like a good girl and later man
aged to graduate. The faculty evidently
didn't hold the 'Baroness Chevrial'
against me. Then I made life unbearable
for my father until he finally gave up in
despair and consented. I played with the
Bishop Stock Company at San Diego but
fell down, literally I mean, one day and
broke my arm.
"Back home went I and spent some
months there while that arm mended
and my father hoped I had had enough.
But I hadn't. It was 'give me the stqige
or give me death' with me. So 1 in
vaded vaudeville with some success and
then came this offer to play with the
Lyric Company and I arrived in Port
land Christmas week last year.
"It is splendid here. I have found the
people of the company delightful, Mr.
Keating and Mr. Flood are the finest men
anyone could wish to work for, I like the
people who come to see us act and I'm
fond of Portland. Tou see I'm happy,
prosperous thank you, and I hope I
know more about my profession than I
did a year ago. It's hard work but the
work's fun. There's nothing pleasanter
than entertaining people crowds of peo
ple. I have come to know hundreds of
our audience by sight and every week I
have little receptions back here after the
performance for women and children who
are regular attendants and are good
enough to be my friends.
"I don't care so much about the men
but I do want the women and children to
like me. for if they are fond of me I
must be doing some little good. -Don't
ou think so?"
UNITED STATES MARSHAL CHAS.
J. REED can testify to the vigilance
of at least one Portland policeman. One
night last week the Government official
was wending his way homeward in the
darkness, and "had neared the end of Ford
street, on Willamette Heights, when he
was approached -by a uniformed officer,
who halted him.
"Who are you, where are you going, and
what is your business here at this hour?"
the officer asked.
"I am going home," was the reply.
"Well, you'll have to show me," replied
the policeman; "we have orders to be
very careful about strange men we meet
on our beats."
Throwing back his coat, Marshal Reed
displayed his official badge, which, need
less to say, was sufficient to satisfy the
policeman that the wearer was "all
right."
Patrolman Craddock, reckoned as one
of the best men in the Portland Police
Department, was the officer who held up
the United States Marshal and compelled
him to prove his .identity.
Marshal Reed seemed to enjoy the af
fair. -He laughed good-naturedly over it,
and complimented Patrolman Craddock on
his watchfulness.
Orders have been Issued to patrolmen
on the first and second night reliefs to be
very careful as to persons seen out late,
and to exact an accounting from all whom
they do not know.
Shoots Brother to Be Free.
ST. LOUIS, Oct. 20. Albert Croissaut,
president of the Croissaut-Bowman Sta
tionery Company, was shot through the
abdomen and probably mortally wounded
today by his brother Edward. Edward
stood at the corner of Locust and Fourth
streets, near his brother's business house
and when Albert passed, shot without
warning, exclaiming:
"I'm a man now."
Edward, who has been a sanitarium pa
tient, was arrested,' and at the Four
Courts declared his regret that he had
not killed his brother, asserting that the
brother exerted a hypnotic spell over
