: Tha Donner family was very promi
nent In social life In Portland aom
years ago. - They built and owned th
pretty Portland heights home now
owned by Dr. Byron E. Miller and war
very happy in their life there up to th
time their troubles began. Mrs. Donner
was a sister of EL . J. Haigbt of thla
city, and hla family thlnka that If there
is any foundation for tha shaYg of in

In th loss of all her property during a
reel T estate depression and on -top of
thla cam th blow of her youngest and
now only remaining daughter's decision
to go on th stag. .. . - '
-This daughter had been well educated,
finishing first at tha Portland academy
and then graduating' with honors from
Wellealey .college. Th mother had pre
pared har for a life whloh she thought
better suited for her snd th stag fever
came aa a great blow. However, there
was no quarrel, for Mrs. Donner was a
kind, aweet-natured woman, and ah told
Mrs.. Height at th time: "Of course It
Is a great disappointment and 1 would
rather ah would not go on the stage,
but if It Is her decision I will stand by
bar.- -. ; . -. , (. -.
, From that tlm ah went about with
her daughter, traveling with har and
accompanying her to and from th the
atre ad golag en all but her longest
Journeys. Thar there could have been
a quarral between them at any tlm
seems impossible to her relatives who
knew her, for they were absolutely de
voted to eeich other.
' Always OMerfaL . ' .
. "Her sorrow may have- acted on' her
mind," aald Mrs. Height, "but In any
case It. could not have been aaythlng
but temporary. She never showed any
signs f a weak mind and we have
known har constantly' up to four years
ago whan' ah went east to be with
her daughter. On the contrary, she waa
very bright and accomplished', taking
easily to painting; rauslo and literature,
and always cheerful about the home.
Anything els must have com up very
recently, W had a letter from har
written August-10, .which wss on of
th most . beautiful I ever read. ' She
spoke of her daughter fondly snd wished
to see her ' brother and said tbst next
year ah would com out to visit him
and they 'would enjoy' themselves. She
May hsvs -been under a high nervous
tension snd overwrought 'with her exer
tions in going about with her daughter
so much snd having to be slons when
her daughter was away on long trips,
but I can't believe. that there was sny
violent er established Insanity. She was
a beautiful; patient character.". -
Diamond Donner, th only living child
ef the family, was prominent In music
while at Wellealey and Bang aa first
soprano of the glee club for four years
It is possible that she strained har voice
there, for after going Into opera, at th
earnest encouragement of her friends,
sh lost "her voice temporarily, i While
her last year , with "The Billionaire"
sh wfes doing dancing specialties, but
this was only whlls resting her vote,
snd shs declared tt her Intention to ft)
into legitimate drama before long.
Many other friends hers testify to the
fin character of Mra. Donner and, the
absence of any signs of Insanity or even
high emotionality while ahe, lived her.

Baker's charter haa quit a romantic

mad necessary In 1M1 when some slight
