Salem, Or, Nov. 2l.Owing to the
meeting- of the fctste Bar association In
Portland today, the supreme court hand
ed down. Its regular week's grist of
opinion yesterday afternoon. Five de
cisions wer rendered, each belns; a re
ersalA s? 7 .'' -' M; j.1 i -
- The failure of the indictments to state
that an election had been, held In Unlen
county, for the purpose of establishing
the legality or Illegality of the liquor
traffic caused the overthrow of two
convictions on charges of violation of
the local option law. The Initiative law
In Oregon on this subject s is '' modeled
after the Texas statute. 'The local oj
: tion case of the state vs. Dell Kennedy
was reversed, and the lower court di
rected to sustain th -demurrer on these
grounds. ' The same ruling was made in
the similar ease of the state vs. Victor
Townsend. also f torn Union county.
. Jesse- Parker,; who was ' convicted of
the crime of manslaughter In the circuit
court -of Union county, will- be given a
' new trial as a result of a reversal of
the lower court -..by Justice . McBrlde.
Parker was tried on a' charge of mur-
. der in ? the first degree,) but, was' con
; victed of manslaughter, ;, The main rea
eon for reversing this case was an er
roneous instruction to the Jury regard
ing previous threats made by. the de-
fondant against the deceased.
F. C. Whltton and J. C. Bryant, re
Bpondents, vs. M. C Grlswold, appellant,
appealed from Judge Morrow's court of
Multnomah county, was .reversed and
remanded. -This waa a suit-for $10,

-Umber lands. . . .
K. L Krutall, respondent, vs, J. "W.

Two crowded houses- witnessed the
opening of Pantages new vaudeville
theatre at Seventh and Alder streets,
last night, and showered words of praise
on the owner both for the fine new
house and the excellent program. The
orchestra pit and, stage were banked
with beautiful flowers which had been
presented to Mr. Pantages In honor of
the occasion.
Long before the doors were thrown
open at I o'clock and again at 9 o'clock
the sidewalk and entrance were crowd
ed wijth people. Within, a few moments
of each opening eyery seat was taken.
'The feature of the first performance
was solo by Mrs. Alexander Pantages,
wife of the owner of the circuit. Mra
Pantages was formerly a footllght star.
Her selections were received with ap
plause. Bouquets of flowers were show
ered on her from1 the boxes and front
of the theatre and baskets of beautiful
blooms presented to her.
In addition to the personal congratula
tions showered on htm last night Mr.
Pantages received 76 telegrams from
all parts of the . United States and Cana
da and . one ' from their representative
In Berlin.
As an opening number the orchestra,
numbering seven pieces, played a new
march, "Alexandria," written and dedl
cated to the honor bf -Alexander 'Pan
tages, by S. W. Rosebrook. The ad.
dress of dedication was made by George
h. Hutchln; manager of the Portland
Rose Festival, who complimented Mr.
Pantages highly, calling him the "king
of amusement purveyors."
In the boxes were Mayor Rushlight,
Senator . Selling and many other of the
most prominent cltlxena . of the city,
the guests of Mr. Pantages. H
t The new theatre Is one of the most
handsomely appointed in Portland and
very part of it follows the most mod
ern 'and up to date lines: It is abso
lutely fireproof and the many exits
provided make it exceedingly safe. The
acoustics were found to be as good as
could be desired, and anything above a
whisper on the stage can be heard In
all parts of the: house. Notwithstand
ing the crowded "condition of the house
the air was as pure at the end of the
second performance as at the begin
ntng of the evening. The house was
very comfortable throughout and the
temperature remained practically sta
tlonary. Dainty souvenir silk programs
were presented to the patrons.

. Jules Eckert Goodman's ' play,
"Mother," which Portland people have
taken especial Interest In since Its first
production In New York, had Its de
layed Portland opening at the Heilig
last night and delighted the unusually
Intelligent audience which had gathered
to see the work of this former Portland
writer. It Is the first of Mr. Good
man's plays to be publicly acted here
and it reveals him as a master of char
acter and an unusually successful pur
suer of the elusive and much-sought-after
quality known as human Interest
"Mother" Is a four act composition
played upon the heart strings.,
"Wasn't it awful?" exclaimed one
man as he came out of the theatre..
"I'm going to write my mother a 10
page letter first thing In the morn
ing." Mother's Belf Sacrifice.
"Mother" is tragic, but so is moth
erhood, and this play of Mr. Goodman's
brings home poignantly that fact. It
Is the story of a mother's self-sacrifice
for her children, of her efforts to keep
her family name clear, to get the right
kind of husbands for her girls and
keep her boys from getting the Wrong
kind of wives. It's , the old story that
most mothers go through In greater or
less degree, but it is a subject that
people, particularly men, don't usually
talk about Kipling voices the Anglo
Saxon prejudice against an appeal to
one's mother in one of his earlier
stories. He chrystallzed the Idea In
that lafeat verse! of his, "The Female
of the Species." But Mr. Goodman
doesn't share his prejudice. He, rather,
agrees with Hall Calne and his "The
Mother of the Man." ,
But don't think that "Mother" is all
tragedy. It Is far from that Mother
Is a oheerful body and though she has
her trials she also has her joys. And
she is a successful mother because, in
the end, her battles are won and she
makes good the "nqtes" she has given
the. world. 1
One or two are held up for payment
for a while but none is dishonored.
Katie Putnam Is Star.
: She tackles her problems with a light
heart and leaves the orylng to the rest
of the family who do very well Indeed
at It In fact some of them weep so
much one wonders if they are worth
the trouble. But she doesn't, and she
ups and saves 'em. - How she does It
is worth seeing.
With the exception of two or three
persons, the company that Mr. Brady
has sent out to give "Mother" is not
as good as the play. Katie Putnam,
who plajfs "Mother," Is one of these ex
ceptions. She 1s very good. , Margot
Merriam, as the elder sister, is fair,
and Frederick Burt and George Leary
are good, though Burt overdoes the
third act a little. Jewel Power doesn't
make a sweet and girlish person out of
the young sister. Paul Kelly and Bert
Perret are the usual pair of alarmingly
clever juventles. Such youngsters re
mind one of the question, "Why are
children so bright and grown ups so
stupid?"
The Orpheum Is offering as ls head
liners this week Johnny and Emma Ray
who are paying- their first and last
visit to Portland in vaudeville with
"The Bandmaster." The skit deals with
one Mrs. Baldwin Piker, whose newly
acquired ' riches and efforts to be one
of the elite cause all of the comedy. .She
is to give a musical, soiree and Mike
Donovan, leader of the full-blooded
Hungarian band, which is to play for
the dance. Is mistaken for the German
violin virtuoso who is to appear. There
is something of some sort doing from
start to finlnh when the minor members
of the company are drawn in a vacuum
cleaner. Mrs. Ray is, to say the least.
buxom with a voice to match. Mr. Ray
is the little fat monkey type of Irish
man . with a laugh that Is a mainstay.
John Gray, as the butler, was the gen
eral foil for everybody. The act goes
with plenty of laugh and a telling feat
ure is the .violin stunt.
If applause is . the standard, Mr. ana
Mrs. Jack McGreevy just about captured
the palm. Mr, Jack as the vllllage fid
dler and Mrs. Jack as the fat country
maid are a good pair of characters who
won out without a struggle. Their dish
of village gossip- was delectable and
their grand finale of playing and danc
ing was sure fire with the audience de

How to Always Have
Soft, Lustrous Hair
"If every woman but knew how easy
It is to have a wealth of soft, silken
hair all her own there would ' be no
further use for switches," says Mrs.
Mae Martyn, writing in the New York
Express. "It Is only a matter of right
shampooing," she continues, "which
means avoiding head washes of a harm
ful nature.
"With ordinary canthrox one can enjoy
the delights of a' cleansing, soothing
and very beneficial shampoo. Just dis
solve a teaspoonful In a cup of hot
water and your shampoo Is ready. This

and dandruff, energises the tissues and

a charming softness and lustre that
adds greatly to womanly beauty,"v
