Just a. peaceful renin; on tno front, Jorch. , watching . the dying of the day ane lletenins to the faint chirp of the cricket In the areas. But there la another sound that I even more stridently Insistent. II Is the hum of the pew little mosquitoes who have found' out by rrfadlna- the highly perfumed advice of the railroad posters that Portland Is the Ideal sum mer resort. They have oome with all their relatives. They have brought their little brothers and sisters and their number is as the sands of' the sea for multitude. They are so small that they can alls through the meshes of the finest soroen and netting known to commerce, and so strong that they can bite through a calf slcln boot and not feel It. But their victims feel It, and they are going to business with lumpy arms and prick ly fuots and red hands. "You can't blacken your face to sit on your own front doorstep," says the aggrieved summer resldont.' "Tou cao't wear a what-do-you-call-'em like a blooming Engllnhman In Mia - Soudan. You can't stay in the house 'cause It's too hot, and you can't set out without being eaten up by these pesky things." And so the merry game goes on. - .You can ralk along the street from house to house and- you hear mingled with words which are not pretty., the alan and pound and sally and retort of the affectionate famllle engaged in the exciting game, of mosquito killing. - "Ou:h! There's another." "Hold still, I'll get him.

J- THIS MAN HAD A, SHREW, BUT HE DID NOT HAVE HER TAMED "Shut iip!" It came out with a Ticlous snap, with all the venom of an angry woman's tongue. A man and woman, evidently married, were stand ing at ' the Fourth street entrance of the Chamber of Commerce building Monday afternoon. After an argument the man started away. The woman's sharp words brought him back. "You pearly-toothed, dreamy-eyed, f olden-haired little darling," yes, some hing like that, only much harsher. Kverybody moved out of earshot. For about two minutes he continued his flow of profane denunciation. "I'll have you arrested for profane language," cried the wife. A little girl crouched bv her side, "I can't hold a candle to you for cussing." he replied. Then the Opalr went Inside the building, and in front of the postoffice the woman hod her innings. She justified what her hus band had said about her powers of vituperation, Every vile name and ob scene epithet the human tongue can utter was poured forth with the little child still nestllnif close to her side. She had heard the like before, and did not appear surprised. A man who once drove a bull team in a logging camp passed by. The language made him cover his ears and flee. A Greek fisherman from down the river couldn't stand It and did like wise. A printer blushed, and a steam boat mate had to run because he was shocked. Finally the husband, seeing the gap ing crowd, moved away. The woman followed. "I hope you choke in Seattle," . she said, or words to that effect RUMBLE THAT YOU DON'T FORGET IS EVIDENTLY C0MINGT0 TOWN News for the boys and girls young ad old. The rumble of the wheels of the old, mysterious, fascinating circus, wagon which has never been imitated by any thing else in the world with their ac companying monkev cages inclosing the natural born comedians of the animal life, the ticklish playing bands and all that sort of thing which goes to make tip a circus, is evidently headed this way With this beloved rumble, the at tractive bands and the entertaining monkeys, to say nothing of the hundreds of performers, will come all of the other paraphernalia of a great circus a little city in itself. Over at the Hotel Portland, there is a telegram waitlnR for some one. It Is addressed : "Samuel McOrnken, advance agent. tjamuin et tsaney. ' But that's enough. So It Is presumed that Barnum & Bailey are headed for Portland and are coming as rapidly as tneir nates win allow tnem. Uncle SanVs Cats Celebrate Arrival of Their Pay Checks There are five happy cats at' the Portland postoffico. These cats are employes of the gov ernment They ar patriotic cats, too their payday comes on the Fourth of July. It Is the duty of these cats to pro tect the United States malls from mice.

" of cages and traps and the like were tried without effect. Something had to be done, and quickly, too. The mice were Just having a grand time with the mall sacks and letters and fancy postal cards. One morning when Uncle Sam got down to his desk in Washington he opened one of the strangest requests for allowances that had ever oome to his notice. It was from Portland. Gr and It Was for cat feed. This included cat delicacies after the mice had pll been consumed. But old Uncle Sam. good-natured fel low that he Is, was equal to the emergency. Of course, he hemmed and hawed a bit and. said a let of things about there not being much use for cats around a postoffice with the result that the allowance was made. "Portland cats, $24 per annum,' wrote Uncle Sam on a slip of p'per. 80 ever since then these cats have been on a sort of salary. This year the cat appropriation was a little late It didn't get here on the Fourth. There was . some uneasiness about the federal building when the check dldn t arrive when due. But yesterday the check arrived and everything was all right again. Away back in a dark corner of the postoffice late last night there was a celebration. Only five attended. It was the cats. 1 I I , . J JlV- - . f vf. i -! . is) as) 7 . 7 S-M' A 'f I ii 1-: 'au . ff : & V X f fY- lit n . , , , .

LEADING CLOTHIER MRS. FISKE IS A PUZZLE TO LOCAL IBSEN LOVERS LEGISLATE HAWKERS OFF THE STREETS Mayor iJine was sustained In both of his vetoes on the peddlers' and nlckel odlon ordinances at this morning's meeting of the council, and now Coun cilman Kellaher threatens to Introduce an ordinance forbidding peddlers and hawkers to sell their wares on Portland Btreets. Of the ordinances, the one regulating hawkers and peddlers received the most Interest because of the large number of Seonle Involved. The measure was rafted at the Instigation of 200 busi ness men who signed a petition asking that the hawkers be regulated In some manner. The councllmen took up the suggestion and increased the fees. In some cases the amounts were doubled. The hawkers retained lawyers and fought the measure, with, the result that Mayor Lane finally vetoed' it. There were only 10 members of the council present when the roll was called on the measure, and six voted for the ordinance and four against It. It Is believed that If an ordinances in troduced abolishing hawkers and ped dlers It will be passed unanimously. The ordinance regulating the con struction of nlckelodlons was drafted by Deputy Firs Marshal Roberta, as was one rerardlna th ntnrar nf t-- der and fireworks. The council refused to pus one reiaun to rir.wnrk. mnA sustained the mayor's veto on the one regarding nlckelodlons Onlv councllmen voted to pass the ordinance uir Mayor uinei veto.

There were three classes of people who came away from the Lyric last night mopping their browa and search ing wildly tor something cold. There were those who wondered what Ibsen was driving at wlirn ho wrote "Ros mersholm"; there were those who were anxious to except Rosmer s hospitable Invitation to "come and have a mill- race with me, and th,ere were those who had seen through the interpretive art or Airs, t lake a conlliot of souls, pathologic, perhaps, but so absorbingly Interesting that they were moved to ex claim, not only "Great Is Mrs. Flske," but rather, "Great Is Ibsen!" There Is enough to be said for each of these three views of "Rosmersholm" to Justify any adherents they may have. Through the first two acts you feel lme Silver Herford's poem of the popseglrl who was reading Schopen hauer to her geese. The geese didn't understand what Schopenhauer whs driving at, neither did the goosepirl nor, as Mr. Herford assures you. did Schopenhauer himself. There are six characters In "Rosmersholm," and they talk, talk. talk. Tliev discuss the lib eral and the new thought movement. They argue pro and cuii the Christian religion. It Is talk, but It Is t! such the first family of the little Norwegian village. lives In an atmosphere of Ideals never reacnert, of Moat dreams never realised. The hotipe of Ronnie r, like I'oe's House of Uyiier. Is obscured by a poisonous miasma that takj's as Its vlctlhi those who live within Its reach. Seatta, the first wife of Rosmer. has lived a wretched life and been driven to suicide by Rebecca West, the natural daughter or the village doctor. Re becca, a woman with Imagination with some little reading along the lines of liberalism, a free thinker, and with an ambition like unto that of Lady Mac beth, has come Into Rosmers house, has Influenced the weak wife to throw herself Into the mlllrace so as to leave Rosmer free to marry her, agd then has et about to make herself and Rosier leaders In the new movement that she believes is to sweep Norway. Simple, ghost-ruled Rosmer, drunk with nls dreams, follows where she leads until publicly called to account by Rector Kroll, Beatta's brother and the village schoolmaster. Kroll stands out as the one material character In the drama. Kroll Is more body than soul, more mind than Imagination. He typifies the power of common sense: j narrow-minded, vain, but still far from' despicable, he Is, In some curious way. the protagonist of the drowned Beatta. Kroll In the flesh and Beatta 'the Lygela of the mlllrace." she has been raUed In Jhe Hctrlt. together with the forces of heredity working on both Ros mer and Rebecca, bring about ths final trareay In their lives. Through two cuses her of having been Rosmer's m'"- tress, that perhaps It would have been Deuer had she been such. Later Rosmer returns home, finds Rebecca about to leave for nnother part of Norway and together they discuss the wreck of their lives. Rosmer, hit old superstition rampant within him ruled bv the rowers of heredity, con ceives that Rebecca can absolve herself of Beatto s murder by Jumping In the mill-race herself. Rebecca agrees to the proposal Immediately because Rosmer has suggested il. The white horses of heredity can be heard galKfpIng without the house. Rosmer, a new dream come upon him. believes that he too can find happiness by going with Rebecca. His weak will is unable to contemplate the thought of life without her. And so together they go and "take a suicide" as Alan Dale callously put It. Mrs. Flske is mentally the most re markable woman on the stage. She is the one woman in the country who could play Rebecca Intelligently. She Is not beautlftil, she talks In so low a tone of voice that you. can't hear her beyond the sixth row. but she leaves an Impression of the character of Rebecca that ono can never forget. It Is an interpretation of Ibsen, nojtya malfor mation. Her company la a delight. Fuller Melllsh as Rector Kroll is so excellent an artor that there is not a suggestion of overdrawing In the dif ficult role of KroTl. He brings out the petty tfilnes In the mans nature but he makes him still a man. WHllnm A Norton, although on the stage but a short while, as Mortensgard the editor was perfect. while Arthur Forrest played Rosmer with an understanding of the man's character, his "wlshy washlness." his enthrallment to hered ity and superstition that helps to clari fy largely the fog that obscures the drama. Albert Brunlng In th part of Ulrio Brendel the poet was well, was Ulrtc Brendel. That part of the poe is ono that must be most delicately handled to bring out Its true relation to tho rest of the drama, and Mr Brunlng did It most artistically. Mary Maddern, Mrs. Flake's aunt, played the housekeeper sympathetically and care fully. It was a typical Manhattan com pany without the suggestion of a weak spot. And the sad thing about It is that we shall have to wait until Mrs. Flske returns to Portland to see an other such. BRIZOLEirS BODY GOES TO BROTHER The body of A. J. Brlzoler, a Jeweler formerly of Spokane and who came to Portland several montns ago, aying at the Mount Tabor Sanitarium last Sat urday, was shipped to a brother In San Luis Obispo, Cal.,' last evening Although Brlzoler died under rather peculiar circumstances It Is believed by the authorities that death was brought about by natural causes. Brlzoler was tHken to the sanitarium Friday night , unconscious. Early that evening: he (md been found delirious wandering- about the hallway of a lodging housb nt Fifth and Morrison streets. A valuable watch and chain and a diamond locket were missing and have never been accounted for. Brlzoler had about J600 In the Se curity Savings A Trust company bank at the time of his death.
