Popular Star A mill I'linncl IVutllo
ton III tlio Piny "At Yolo,"
Once moro Paul Ullmore has
played for the people of Pendleton,
and once more he pleased them with
his fresh and manly style. In return
he was once moro treated to applause
which, he says, brought out the best
there was In the play. In the curtain
speech which he gave after repeated
calls, he entertained the crowd with
a clever talk and again urged the
fact that a new theater Is needed by
the city.
"At Yale" Is a college play of the
strong and healthy variety, as . all
such productions should be. The plot
Is simple, yet It Is sufficient when the
cast Is made up of Paul GUmore and
the able bunch he now has with him.
The play brings out the essential
things In college life, the loves and
hates, the men and the cads the col
lege nplrlt. that wonderful thing
which Is to the college world what
patriotism Is to the bigger world Into
which students pass when they leave
the commencement platforms.
In his present role Paul Gllmore Ib
better suited than for that of Captain
De Bonaire In which he played lost
season, though he was good In that
nlso. Of those In the support Clinton
Clay as Jack Randall, Is the Ideal
chum, while Miss Leona Ball as Dor
othy Randall, plays her part excel
lently. Others also are worthy of
mention, among them being young
Edward Merrlgan who plays "Jlm
sey" to perfection.
Although the thentergolng people
had Just been treated to two nights
of strenuous entertainment In the
Commercial association performance,
the old Frozcr theater was properly
crowded last night as It probably al
ways will be when Gllmoro comes
this way.

WALLA WALLAXS ARE FRANTIC.
Suspension of Traffic on the O. R. &
N. Brings Buck Duys of Stage
Coach.
The following from the Walla
Walla Statesman which was received
In this city today for the first time
in two weeks, shows the situation In
the Garden City as a result of the tie
up of traffic on the O. R. & N. and
W. C. R. railroads:
Stage coach from Walla Walla to
Pendleton may be the only means of
communication for a month to come,
says the Statesman.
Another bad lot of washouts on the
O. R. & N. between this city and Pen
dleton took place yesterday and the
hope of rail communication Is now
remote.
Mall sacks by the hundred marked
with the Walla Walla tag are piled up
In the Pendleton postoffice. A move
ment Is being started by local mer
chants to have the accumulated mall
brought over In wagons, if It cannot
be Bent around via Portland and Seat
tle. Added to this Is the great incon
venience caused by lack of passenger
traffic.
Several rigs full of drummers went
by the mud route to Pendleton yes
terday. Local liverymen are charging
$36 for a dcuble team to the Oregon
city. This looks rather steep to those
who went yesterday but they had to
go, so grinned and paid It.
A number of Walla Wallans tied up
in Pendleton will come home In the
same way. Considerable talk Is being
made about the establishment of a
stage line between Walla Walla and
Pendleton. The Commercial club may
discuss the matter tomorrow night
