Tuesday's Oregonian has a half
tone of the Ruth steaming past
Portland's water front, on her way
to the O R & N repair yards. The
damages to her hull are of such a
nature that the boat will have to
have practically a new bottom, and
many of the ribs will have to be
replaced. The steamer was not
strained or wrenched in any way.
She will be hauled out on the ways
and repairs will be made as quick
ly as possible. One of the holes
in her hull is 4x12 feet.

of this city, has just completed a
handsome drop curtain, depicting a
pretty marine view, besides a num
ber of wings. These will be placed
on the stage on the lower floor of
the A. O. U. W. hall, and Philo

amusement.

JTrus, Miss Wierne plays her patt ac
ceptably, but she does nothing to justify
what had been expected of her. Miss
Freeman mikes the most of an impossi

surprise. Baby Keadick is a perfect
treasure in everything entrusted to him.
"A Bitter Atonement," given Tuesday
night is an worthy of the efforts of Mr.
erch's company. " The situations are
strained and absurd and the whole plet
lacks continuity.
In "Canaille," "however, the company
is seen at its greatest strength. Mr.
Beadick has opportunity to exploit his
excellent voice, and to show what master
of detail he is. The climax of the fourth
act was worked np with consummate
skill.. As "Armand Duval" he refuses
the temptation to tear a passion to tat
ters, aad chooses to treat the more stormy
scenes with "Camille" with quiet power.
Mr. Berch, as "George Duval,5' is effec
tive. Mr. King gave a faithful portrayal
ef "Gaston," while Miss Freeman and
Miss Monroe were, equal to their roles.
Miss "Wienie's "Camille" ia deserving
serious consideration. A part that has
made demands upon the best efforts of a
Fanny Dayenport is to bs undertaken
with some hesitancy, but Miss Wierne
acquitted herself most creditably, and
surprised those familiar with the play
and its exactions. Mies Wierne has an
expressive lace ana nne ngure. it is a
pity that nature has not gifted her with a
better voice.
