'A, Who "Woman". The comedy
is said to be an exceptionally bright
piece of farcical writing. It was
originally presented at the Strand
theatre, London, where it played
to remarkably big business during
a long engagement of Zoo nights.
The farce which the critics declare
to be exceptionally well developed
and interesting throughout is ar-
ranged 10 aamit 01 me iniroaucuon
of a number of nigh class spec
ialties, without which any farce
in these days would be deemed in
complete. Wilfred Clarke, the
author of the comedy, and who is
incidentally the sob of the ate
John Sleeper ' Clarke, the famous
comedian, has staged the produc
tion himself, and this important
detail is said to have been carried
out in a most "artistic manner.
Frederic Murphy, the leading man
of the organization, became well
known . to 'many patrons of the

with Julia Marlowe s company.
Pleased With Their Treatment.
An account of the game last
Saturday in this citv between
the foatball teams of Pacific uni
versity and the O A C, sent from
Forest Grove to the Telegram,
has these very complimentary
things to say of the college lads
and tue. citizens of Corvallis
The Oregon Agricultural Col
lege has not held the greatest
favor of the athletic public in
years past, but the game of Sat
urday was one of the most satis
factory that has ever been played
between the-two schools. The
November, " 1898, game, which
resulted in a tie 5 to 5 was
., . , , -1 ,.
tlie raiisp nf considerable feplino-
, ,, "
011 the part of all those concern-i
ed, but the "Banners certainly
aemonstrated, saturaay, that
their team is composed not mire
lv of football players, but that
every member is a true amateur
athlete in every sense. - The
treatment accorded Pacific Uni
versity team in Corvallis made a
lasting impression on them, and
served to efface any fotmer dif
ferences. The standard, which
was set by O A . C during and
alter Saturday's game, is well
worthy of adoption ty some of
the more prominent universities
of the state.
Gault, - Williams, Carnalian
and Sweek were the strongest de
fenders of "Aeries' ' eoal.
Two of Corvallis regular players
were out of the game. -
Wife ia Name Only.
A rather destressing blunder has
been committed by the" officials of
Multnomab,county although the law
making body is perhaps more di
rectly responsible. In that county
the law states explicitly that the
county clerk, and no person else,
shall have authority to issue mar
riage licenses. No , provision is
made for the granting of cartificates
in the case of the death of theclerk,
and before a successor is appointed.
The framer of the law probably
could not conceive of a man dying
and leaving a fat political job, but
the - unexpected has happened.
County Clerk Holms died a week
ago and no successor has been ap
pointed. Multnomah county is
without a clerk. Marriage. license
have been - issued, however, and
ceremonies have been, .performed.
Now comes Judge Cake, to Bay that
these marriages are illegal; that
the license was green goods; that
the solem vows were hollow mock
ery; that the minister did not earn
his fee, and the state of Oregon has
been party to a bunco game.
There is a serious side p the
matter, however, and that is the
distress of mind which must be suf
tered by the innocent parties in
these mock marriages. Of course,
they are man and wife to all intents
and purposes, but then the agony
of another ceremony is not pleas
ant to contemplate. ;. -' t
A? Mr. Wigle- and Mrs. ; Nelms
secured their license since the death
pf Clerk, Holmes j,hey "spi of that
number who must undergo this or
deal , While the county has re
funded the money paid for licenses,
the ministers have given no assur
ance that a rebate may be expected
from them. . ', .
