Butler, 1ier sister, formerly I managers of the Kingston rooming house, on Third and Taylor, will open the Van Noy hotel Third and Pine, about March 10. -Th furniture and fitting of , the place will be very swell most of the carpet being of velvet. 'It la Intended to make . this one of the roost comfortable houses in the city. ; All rooms have electric and gas lights, are heated by steam and have hot and cold water in them. Mrs. Slocum is well known in Portland as a model hojel woman, kindness and at- tentlon to. guests being one of the most fascinating traits of her character. Mrs. Butler'Js recently from the East, yet during her . brief Ufa In Portland 'she has made, many acquaintances and many friends. . Both ladies are of that agreeable kind that nature - seems to have intended for the calling they have chosen. The Hotel Van. Noy Is sure tp be popular with the public, while these two amiable women are at its helm. , . - The employes of the Portland post office have adopted the following resolu tions, touching the death of Fred-JrMafr com, who took his own life: "Resolved by tho Portland branch. No, II, of the United National Association of Post office Clerks, that' we have learned with the deepest regret of the death of Mr. Fred J. Maleom, late mailing clerk in a this office. , That we extend our heart felt sympathy to his bereaved and grief stricken family, who have suffered an irreparable loss.' That In his death the - postofnee department has lost a most efficient and faithful employe; the clerks a true friends and congenial associate, and the community a good and upright citizen." The will of the late William Plymp ton was filed for probate in the county court yesterday morning. C. F. Plymp ton. a brother, and W. W. Plympton, a nephew of the deceased, are appointed executors and empowered to distribute the estate' as they see fit the only pro vision made in the instrument, being that Helen Florence Qraham, a niece, shall be' given a house and lot on Mar guerette street. While only a few rela tives are mentioned, the testator asks the executors to provide for th others as well. ' The Chinese members of the Chris tian mission, which is under the auspices of the First Christian church, had Pas tor and Mrs. Muckley and their children, besides about 60 guests, at the mission last evening, where a luncheon was spread. Many of the women present are teachers in the mission Sabbath school and the weekday ,nlght school. The Celestials entertained their friends with games. The edibles were some thing -entirely-new to tha diners. r- A belated celebration of Washington's birthday was thac at the public library yesterday afternoon in the children's department. Miss Harriet E. Hassler, In charge of the room, entertained the fchlldrerL-Wilh Washington stories.

"BOBIH HOOD." , The horns of "Robin Hood" and his merry men who. killed the king's1 deer and fought the king's men In the shades of Sherwood forest have been sounding for a good many years ' on the comic opera boards, - but their ' sweet blast drew ; to the Marquam Grand theatre last night an audience that filled every seat. The Bostonians renew their youth by their very sensible habit of paying no attention to names,, but looking for voices, young, fresh, ' ambitious voices that are a pleasure after the hard metal lio tones of the professional who will sing every' night of the season. , You are reasonably sure of a' performance better than average if you hear the Boa tonfans and this season the Company is Ho disappointment. .J ". "-, . Barnabee is a habit like drinking cof fee, and pretty nearly as popular, and the people who have contracted the Bar nabee habit don't want any cereal sub stitutes. He la as brisk today as he has been' any time these 16 years, and though some of the iyounger Twemberr of his corps danc with a trifle more agil ity, he doesn't miss many steps, When he made his entrance last night , he had to pause and fulfill the "bow low" part of his, song long before the cue came, for the audience gave him a handclasp of good fellowship that might warm the 'heart of any player. Tito second veteran George Frothingham was applauded, too, on his entrance, . Somehow Frothing ham' never did seem to get full credit for all he does. He Is half the fun of any thing he has a hand in. W. H. MacDonald of the old guard was there too and quaffed' his "Brown October Ale" with all tho gusto Of years ago. All the rest are new faces in Portland. Agnes Brown was the star of the evening. She has a charming voice and Is very sweet and pretty. However she lacks one thing that hitherto has been a distinguishing mark of the real simon pure prima donna. Instead of standing about with a bored air palpably waiting for her cue and trying to get as much of the limelight as possible she appears to take an Interest in what Is going on and her little airs and graces make an important part of every scene she ap pears in. Perhaps Miss Brown is at tempting an innovation. Will Scarlet was sung by Howard Chambers who has a voice so big and deep that it hardly seems to belong to his somewhat youthful figure. Douglass Ruthven, the Robin Hood of the piece, sings a clear tenor. He appeared in the customary handsome makeup and there was a touch of the kaiser about his mustache. Campbell Donald got some real fun out of the part of Guy of Gls borne. Delia Donald Is a rather faint substitute for the original of Alan-a-Daie. Blanche Morrison as Annabel sang her little part pleasantly and Dams Durden did the trifle of comedy that she has well enough, The company has given a shock to 'its traditions by showing the effect ofjhe show-girl fever. In the improved appear ance of Its chorus women. Some of them are really pretty and the singing quality or the chorus has in no degree deteriorated. "Robin Hood" will be repeated this afternoon. "The Serenade" will be the bill tonight and "The Queen of Laugh ter- tomorrow night. . ' , y. , ? ,' -aoaxKamT." Louis N.' Parker, the English drama tist, has been particularly fortunate in creating characters true to life In his nineteenth century romance, "Rose mary." which Howard Kyle will present st the Marquam Grand theatre - next Monday night, February 29. .Sir Jasper Thorndyke. the philanthropic bachelor of 40, Professor Jogrsm, the sensitive but life-long friend, Csptsln Crulck shank, a hardy old seaman, Dorothy Crutckshank, his pretty daughter, with a love for romance and William West wood, an ensign in the East India serv ice, sre all characters well known in the England of that period. The advance sale of seats will open next Friday morning. . " inmxAT Aim xacx. Among the comedians who have a large personal following among local theatre goers, none sre more popular than Murray and Mack. They come to the Marquam Grand theatre next Friday and Saturday nights, February 16 and 27. with a popular price matinee Sat urday, with a brand new edition of the musical gayety, "A Night on Broadway," replete with new music, costumes and effects, and literally chock full of the newest specialties. Murray and Mack have a reputation for being originators of Irresistible humor. The company la everywhere spoken of with the highest praise and playing to the utmost capac ity of the theatre nightly. Seats are now selling. AT HI A SO ASS. Rarjly has any team or company of comedians made such a hit with a Port land audience as th Remos, two men and a girl, who are performing at the Arcade theatre. Not to see them is to overlook aa opportunity to be happy. "DOWBT BT TMM SEA." "Charles Saunders, who sings the eomio song with local applications at Cordray's this week In 'Down by the Sea." covers about everything of local interest placed In a humorous wsy. The police force, the flreboat, Morrison street bridge, the gambling crusade., the 1908 fair, all are In his song which haa be come the talk of the town this week. "SIATXS OI TKB lCXVES.

This is the first time the com pany has ever appeared at popular prices. "TKB OJk.au OF BXBXLUOUS STSAW The plot of the mirthful three-act comedy. "The Case of Rebellious Su san," which is being played at the Baker this week Is perhaps an experience of some married folk since the beginning of civilisation. The charm of the play lies in the telling of the story, naturally. "THB TWO ORPKABS. Next week the Baker company will give a fine production of D'Ennery's noted drama "Th Two Orphans." It begins next Sundsy matinee. wait fxbds BOMB. Mary McCray. a 12-year-old negro girl, was taken to the Boys' and Girls' Aid society this morning. The little girl came to Portland several days ago with a negro women named Ella Jones, from Moscow, Ids., who said she would put the girl on. the stage. The woman went to Th Dalles last Monday, lravv Ing the girl here to shift for herself.

MORENCY ' When George Morency was arraigned In the state circuit court this morning before Presiding Judge Cleland on the charge of larceny from the person, he hung his head and was mute. Questions of the court and of Arthur C. Spencer, the assistant prosecuting .attorney, seemed to fall on deaf ears. "Well, I might as well plead guilty," he finally blurted out. "I got no chance in the other court." It was explained to the court by Spencer that what the prisoner meant was that--hl8 preliminary examination had been waived. Attorney Jerry Bro naugh was appointed to defend the youth, who was given until today to plead. He Is charged with stealing sift from Ed Hall on February 21.
