Emotional Scene Wit

Wife Finds Missing Husband and
Grand Finale Comes
Off in Public.
The it ran (re sight of a stylishly at
tired woman embracing a man some
what the worae In appearance on ac
count of a spree, waa witnessed this
morning at the corner of Third and Oak
streets. It was the climax to a story of
love and devotion on the part of the
woman, and a man acting the role of a
, -pun-away husband.
Louise De Koven was the name of the
pretty little woman, and McPherson De
Koven was the name of the husband.
Bright and early this morning the
door of- the police station swung open,
and a dainty woman stepped In. She in
quired for the captain, and asked leave
to have a private talk with him. She
told her story, and as usual, there was
man in the oase.
Cams from Tacoma.
The story, as told by Mrs. De Koven,
was that for several days her husband
had been missing, and she had Learned
that he came to Portland. Having this
Information In her possession, she
boarded the North Coast Limited In the
City of Destiny, and was soon speeding
on her way to find her erring husband.
Arriving late last night, she registered
at a looal hotel, and. arising early this
morning, went at once to the police sta
tlon.
A description of the husband was
given, and Officer Vaughn was detailed
to locate, If possible, the missing man.
Going out upon the street, the officer
and the woman had not gone two blocks,
when De Koven was seen, standing on
the corner of Third, and Oak streets.
Mrs. De Koven ran over to her husband,
and before he knew It, she was embrac
ing him, and showering kisses upon him.
Then they shook hands, and walked off
together,
Slemsnt of Mystery.
There Is an element of mystery in the
case. The police seem disinclined to
give out the story in Its full details, and
the woman refused to talk to reporters.
From other sources, however. It was
learned that De Koven had been drinking
for several days, and had left Tacoma
while under the Influence of llauor;
That he was drugged, is hinted at by
some, but as to that, there Is no proof.
It did not take long for an immense
crowd of people to gather to witness
the scene on Third, and Oak streets this
morning; neither did it take long for
Mr, and Mrs. De Koven to make tracks
for other quarters.

Too much cannot be said in praise of
Virginia Drew Trescott's work; while
the character of Marlon, the one she
assumes. Is not by sny means a very

it is a great part, and It was greatly

play. "The Old Mill Stream," in which
he has been appear. ng with great suc

the heart tenderly and withal is per

which Mr. Sully is so great an expon
ent. Its exquisite sentiment brings the
tears to the heart, but ere they can
reach the eyes, Mr. Sully hus banished

love story is a pretty one, yet force
fully told, and holds the attention until

"All the Comforts of Home."
""All the Comforts of Home" is still
being had at The Baker. This play is
more than giving its "money's worth"
to those who are fortunate enough to
witness It. It abounds with comicali
ties, which are not merely thrown In,
but belong to the play. The members
of the stock company have proven them
selves entirely adequate to reproduce
this comedy. Perhaps a reason for this
can be assigned to some of the. boarding
houses some of the members of the
troupe have had the good fortune to stay
Irt. The house Is being crowded nightly,
in fact. Manager Baker is seriously con
templating the building of an addition
to this theatre at the end of the sea
son. Lillian Rhoads as Emily Pettibohe
and "William Lamp as Victor Smythe,
ably take the part of lovers, so that a
lively flirtation wends Its way through
out the four acts of this play. "All the
Comforts of Home" has proved one of
the greatest successes of the season.
This IS partly due to the fact that the
production is far superior to those ordi
narily saen under a similar name. The
members of the Baker Stock Company
seem to have fitted themselves Into the
cast and are representing .the charac
ters as faithfully as possible,, without
giving any artificial touches to them.
Anyone wishing to know what "All the
Comforts of Home" really are, had bet
ter not miss seeing it at The Baker.
