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

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

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

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.

But that's enough. So It Is presumed
that Barnum & Bailey are headed for
Portland and are coming as rapidly as

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. Strange to say, mice like letters.
They are particularly fond of love let-

office was overrun with mice. All sorts

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.

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

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
