Paris. A real story of war behind
the scenes at the Theater Porte St.
Martin has just filtered out into the
boulevards. An Immense sensation
was caused on the first night when
M. Gultry, who played the tltlo role
of of "Chanticleer." refused to an
nounce, according to the French cus
tom, the name of the author of the
pieoe. When the curtain rose after
the performance he stood silent, mere.
Jy bowing to the audience. Jean Co
qvelin, who took the part of the dog,
hurried out and announced:
The play we have had the honor
to ' preeent Is by Monsieur Edmond
Rostand."
The same thing happened on the
succeeding night. It is now said that
the poet's 18-year-old son Maurice,
who is a poet himself and who has
made the English translation of his
father's rhymed play, was the cause
Of all the trouble. It wbb his preco
cious lovemaklng that almost wreck
ed "Chanticleer."
M. Oultry. who Is a widowed 48
years old, Is Interested In a young
blonde actress whom he believes has
treat talent. The day before the pub
lic rehearsal he was horror-stricken
to discover Maurice Rostand making
live to hla young protege. The acene
Is said to have occurred in a dressing
roem of the theater. Rostand the
elder espoused the cause of his son
and Gultry was so upset by the Inci
dent, coming on top of long rehearsals
and the excitement of the production
of the world-famous play, that he be
came seriously 111. Next day he ral
lied and played the part of Cantlcleer
mtporbly, but refused even to pro
nounce tho name of Rostand.
This Is the story that Is excltng the
boulevards. Rostand has made no
direct statement, but the newspapers
Intimate thnt he Is discontented with
Gultry's performance of- Chanticleer.
Toung Maurice Rostand Is the talk
of Paris since a few months ago, when
hla 'mother, who Is also a poet print
ed a full-page poem describing Mau
rlc under the title "He ftnows
Everything."

hero of the cross-channel flight, Is
Intent upon starting a regular school
somewhere in England.
Already such schools, with large
practicing grounds attached, are in
operation at Pau and at Camp f
Chalons, not very far from Rhelms.
Many Englishmen and at least one
English woman Miss Dorothy Ievitt
have luarned to fly In France. But
M. Belriot thinks and his opinion
will meet with general agreement
that England ought to have surh a
school of her own.
The difficulty is to find a suitable
ground. It ought to be about a mlie
square, fairly level not encumbered by
trees, not Intersected by ditches or
hedges. Furthermore, It should be
fairly accessible, not too far from, a
town, convenient to a railroad or trol
ley car and not altogether free to the
public. If spectators were allowed to
wander wherever they pleased there
would certainly be accidents, and use
ful practice by beginners would be
scarcely possible.
M. Blerlot starts his pupils in- a
specially built machine, which is
much heavier than that ordinary type
and which cannot rise from the ground
In this they learn all the controlling
movements, which are, by the way,
very simple.

"Rrewster's Millions."
"A comedy melodrama," Is what
ono critic called "Brewster's Mil
lions," which will be seen here on
February 23 at the Oregon theater,
and possibly no more apt description
of this wonderful successful play
could be given. Telling the story of
the young man who must spend a mil
lion dollars within a year, and with
such restrictions as to make the feat
Impossible, it discloses In several in
stances the paradoxical situation of
Incidents otherwise pathetic, but un
der the conditions depicted are posi
tively humorous. The idea of the
principal theme Is so fantastic that
under less careful handling "Brew
ster's Millions" would have degener
ated Into a cheap, tawdy farce. Much
credit Is not only due to George Barr
McCutcheon, who wrote the orlg'nal
story, but to Wlnchell Smith and By
ron Ongley, who adapted It for the
stage. So much for the literary por
tion of "Brewster's Millions." It wa.
natural when Frederick Thompson
(that master mind of stage effects)
decided to produce the play, that he
would discover Its melodramatic and
scenic possibilities. And thus It came
about that that wonderful yacht
scene which monopolizes the entire
third act of "Brewster's Millions." was
born. There is absolutely no doubt
hut that this is the greatest scene of
Its kind thnt has been shown on any
stage at any time. It la almost un
canny In its naturalness and utilizes
many devices hitherto Inapplicable
to stage use. The Illusion of a full
rlgged steamship buffeted by waves
mountain high and In the heart of a
terrific electrical storm. Is so realist
ically presented that one must pinch
one's self when the curtain falls In
order to believe it Is only simulation.
Messrs. Cohnn and Harris' comedians
with Royal Tracy, will be seen In
"Brewster's Millions" during Its en
gagement here.

WANTS fiOVEHXMKNT TO
LOAN MONEY TO FARMERS
Spokane, Wash. "Since we cannot
raise cheap food on dear money, we
have launched a campnlgn to force
nn amendment to the postal savings
bnnk bill so that money may be
loaned direct to farmers on land se
curity at 3 per cent. The plan of
lending it to banks at 2 3-4 per cent
means 10 per cent money for far
mers." L. C. Crow, chairman of the execu
tive committee of the Farmers' Indus
trial and Co-operative union, which
has more than 20,000 members In the
Spokane country, gave out the fore
going In an Interview after dispatch
ing telegrams to the northwestern del
egation in congress urging an amend
ment to tho measure. He added:
"pur demand is merely that the
farmers and producers be given a
square deal by the government. This
will afford them the opportunity of
making their farms attractive and
profitable. One of the chief things
necessary to make the farm a source
of profit is cheap money for the use
of the farmer. No one can run a farm
at a profit and pay 10 per cent for
money. Prevailing rates of Interest
paid by the farmer would bankrupt
any other class of business and these
will eventually bankrupt the farmer,
even In this wonderful country of al
most unlimited undeveloped resourc
es. "One of the principal reforms we
hope to bring about by the use of
cheaper money Is to eolve the tenant
problem. Tenant farming means
thriftless methods, soil exhaustion and
the waste of natural and human en
ergy and resources. The farm must
be made sufficiently attractive that
its owner will remain on It and farm
It for himself. Ownership farming
means permanent Industry, Increasing
fertility and thrift and general prosperity."

IUG APPROPRIATION' FAVORED
FOR T1IK COLCMIU.V RIVER
Portland, Ore. That the Columbia
river Improvements fared well in the
Rivers and Harbors bill now before
congress was the advice received In
Portland this week from the capital.
A total of 32,153,600 Is proposed to be
spent on Columbia river work and
Items provided for In tho bill are as
follows: Wenatchee to Bridgeport,
$25,000; Bridgeport to Kettle Falls,
350,000; Solllo to Snake river, 390,-
000; at The Dalles, 3600,000; Cascades
canal, 35.000; Vancouver, 37.500; be
low Portland. Including Willamette
river, 3175,000; mouth of Columbia,
31,209.000; gauging 31,000.
If this money is appropriated, as
now seems likely, the Improvements
to the Columbia during the coming
year will be lasting in their benefits
and will be of great advantage to the
whole Pacific Northwest The work
Is too important to be claimed as a
betterment by any one state for an
open river from the Inland Empire
to the sea will benefit almost every
person living In the Northwestern
states more or less directly. !
By clearing out the upper river
steamboat navigation will be aided,
with a good effect on rates to and
from the Interior, while the improve
ment of the channel to the sea from
the Columbia will facilitate , ocean
shipments both to and from the
Northwest states.
