and entertaining and original.. . It will
Include many new skits and songs that
have . been written especially for this
affair, while there are some others that,
although they have never been seen in
Portland, were written by Miss Sey

Captain Gabe never had seen a sei
serpent since he visited the Tenderloin
years ago, and he was willine to take
another peep, so he valorously hauled
on the net. A big serpent head ap
peared above the water. Serrent heads
ar Sometimes seen In the Tenderloin,
so the gallant skipper was not a bit nut
out. The soventy-year-old youngster
noted another head, also reptilian. an1
this reassured the old nmn. Father and
son each tackled one of the monsters
and attempted to drag them aboard.
The big creatures resisted so vtgor

father and son each found himself

Testudinata that makes the finest gren

told his son while they were bend Hi tf

to keep a good saddle and steer the
right course.
This seemed to be difficult at first.
But the old man is resourceful. He had
a heavy rlsh line In his pocket and he

STRAY TOPICS FROM OLD NEW YORK
New York, July i. It haa long been
a practice among a certain class of New
Yorkers who desire to put on a bigger
front than their thinly padded salary
envelopes will permit, to purchase cer
tain gifts at a store where moderate
prices prevail and enclose them In boxes
stamped with the name of some fash
lonable and high priced dealer on Fifth
avenue. This little Innocent deceit has
been practiced largely In the matter of
wedding gifts which they would like to
purchase if their means permitted at
Tiffany's. Consequently boxes bearing
that firm name are sought more than
nny other. Their plan of securing a
box although roundabout Is compara
tively simple. They purchase a gift at
Tiffany's for example which Is properly
nsme. out instead or Keeping me pur
chase they return the following day and
ask to have their money refunded. They
do. however, keep the box. They then
purchase a similar article ai a js
fashionable srtd expensive store, put It
In the Tiffany box and send It off with
n snug astlsfactlon that no one will
evr know the difference. The custom
has been so much abused- of late that
ome of the fashionable shops no longer
print their names on the boxea, but In
stead stamp It on every article.

The medical profession was very much
interested in tne recent experiment con
ducted by Dr. Sauerbruch of Germany,
who made a special trip across th
ocean to make a single test, at the
Rockefeller Institute, remaining In this
country Dut a very rew days. The no
ted German doctor has been working
ror years on a.metnon tnat will make It
possible to operate In the chest cavity
witnout conapse or tne lungs. In brief
his plan consists In performing this
delicate surgical operation In a partial
vacuum. A special glaaa case which
permits of the doctor, assistant and
atlent being placed therein Is required
or the work. The atmosphere pressure
Is kept down by an exhaust pump, which
keeps the lungs from collapsing, while
the head of the patient protrudes
through an opening In the chamber wall
Into the normal atmosphere. This re-
rent demonstration whs mads on a dog,
and was very successful. Part of the
dog'a lung wss removed and the animal
continued to live after the operation. Dr.
Sauerbruch believes that his discovery
will not only revolutionise surgical op
erations of the chest cavity but will be
the meeas of saving many Uvea.

It was at one of tho Sunday morning
meetings in this old mission that the
story of the volunteer organist had its
inception. The regular pianist was ah
sent. Several hymns had been fiat fall
ures without ths" music. Finally the
leader turned to the ragged men on
tne bencbes and asked If any one could
play. A rusty hobo came forward and
seated himself at the piano. As his
dirty fingers fell on the keys the hobo
straightened up. The old piano seemed
to undergo a transformation, too. The
volunteer pianist devoted the rest of his
life to the mission and wss Instrumen

years ago) now adorns one of the walls
of the old mission. It reads: "In lov

Oscar Flgman of "The Merry Widow"
was once a member of a stock company
in an Iowa town whose repertoire ranged
from the heaviest tragedy to the light
est farce. It was. pretty hard work,
says Flgman, and the roles assigned
him did not always meet his ideas of
what he should have had.
One day the manager announced that
the bill for the following week would
be "Julius Paesar," and ran over the
list of characters Caesar. Antony. Bru
tus, Cassius without mentioning the
name of Flgman.
"Look here," ho exclaimed,
not going to cast me for Uasca, or
something like that, are you?

I'll be
hana-ed if I do Caeca
Easy, my boy, easy, responded tne
manager with a grim smile. "I ain't

forte ain't tragedy, Flgman. You're go
