The dramatic critic in Sunday's
Portland telegram has this to say
of I'The Gambler's Daughter," which
appears at the opera house in this
city tonight: "The Gambler's
Daughter,"-the attraction at . Cor
dray's this week, was patronized in
accordance with the merit of the
offering. . It is-a melodrama of ah
unmistakable type. To those glory
ing in the sensational drama "The
Gambler's . Daughter." came- as a
rare and palatable dish. As is
customary with, this class of plays,
specialties were injected to restore a
normal temperature after each
heart-stopping situation, and these
side plays were good. The com
pany was as satisfactory as need be,
and the melodrama was mounted
in a manner that appealed to the
eye by its ostentation.

FARMERS VICTORIOUS.
Tliey Defeated Salem by a Score of 13 to
IO, In First Game of Series.
Furious is the only word that
will describe the basket tall game
at the College Armory Friday
evening, ; between the men's
teams -reprepresenting Willam
ette University' and Oregon Ag
ricultural College. No rough
ness was indulged in by the play
ers," but'the style of play was
fast and . strenuous. While the
agricultural lads threw six goals
from the field, and Salem had
but two field goals to her credit
when the game ended, the final
score was, O A C, 13; W U, 10.
It was evident early in the
game, that the farmers . would
have to defeat the umpires as
well as the opposing team if
they won. Salem's coach acted
as one of these officials, both of
which were W U men, and he
called nine fouls on Corvallis
during the game, and but one on
Salem. The visitors were given
a throw from the foul line in the
first minute of play, and Parsons
was loudly cheered as he con
verted the try into a point ior
Salem.: Shortly after, the visi
tors were given another point on
a foul. The university's coach
continued presenting his team
with points in this way until Sa
lem had 5 points to her credit,'
and neither team had thrown a
goal from the field.
The palpable fouls' committed
by his own team escaped the eye
of this official, and the spectators
began. calling his attention to
them. Corvallis was allowed
one foul in the first half, the only
one during the game. To this
point, a goal from the field was
added, and the half ended, Sa
lem, 9; O A C, 3. . t
Supporters of the orange were
not discouraged atthis showing,
for the visitors had thrown but
one more basket from the field
than the home team,- and they

hoped that the umpire's con
science would awaken during
the rest between halves.
At the opening of the second
half, the spectators were brought
t6 their feet when the farmers
made a pretty basket .from the
field. Bach team played desper
ately, and the crowd only
got it breath when the visitor's
coach stopped the play to give
his team a try from the foul line.
Two of these were missed by
Parsons, but he added sl point on
the third attempt. O A C had
secured two more buskets from
the field, and the score board
read: Salem, 10; Corvallis, 9.
Then Rinehart threw a beautiful
basket, and as O A C took the
lead for the first time during the
game, the cheering of her sup
porters was fairly deafening.
But two minutes of play re
mained and ; the visitors' only
hope of escaping defeat lay in se
curing a point on a foul. The
umpire promptly allowed this,
and Parsons tried and missed.
The gallery manifested its de
light in yells. As the ball passed
into play, brilliant passing car
ried 'it quickly to Salem' s goal ,
and the farmers had added two
points more to their score. Par
sons demanded that the last bas
ket made by O A C be not count
ed, and that he be allowed ' an
other try from the foul line, be
cause of the disturbance in the
gallery during his first attempt.
Referee. Dickey refused 'to
grant this modest request, and
Captain Pollard called his men
from the field. The matter was
discussed for some time, but. the
referee was firm, and said ."play
ball." O A C responded but the
visitors refused to play. The
game ended, O A C, 13; W U,
10; with i4 minutes of play re
maining. The visitors played a. clean
game, and they are all gentle
manly fellows. It was not their
place to object to the partiality

Card of Thanks.
We wish to express our Eincere grati
tude to the many friends of Mrs. Phoebe
Walden, who bo kindly assisted us dur
ing her long illness. To part company
with wife and mother is a heavy loss and
goes to the deepest depth of sorrow. "It
is just as natural to die as to be bom,"
said Lord Bacon, a philosopher, who sel
dom had a nebulous idea, yet it seems
very hard for us to accept this statemsnt
without an admixture of doubt when
brought face to face with the chasm of
an open grave. ; But the soothing influ
ence of kind friends wonderfully aid in
allaying the pains of this terrible afflic
tion. We cordially thauk'the pastors,
singers, and everybody that heloed us.
even in the slightest way, in the hour of
our grief and bereavement.
