Eoau Rialto Finds Nothing to Commend
Hor As An Actress In and Bays
She Is Rather Grotesque.
BY BEAU RIALTO.
(Written for the United Press.)
New York, Jan. 24. A pretentions
opening of the week was "Maria Bosa"
romantic drama at the Thirty-ninth
streot theatre, in which Dorothy Don
nelly is supported by Lon Tellogon, the
French actor who was associated with
Sarah Bernhardt. ( Unnoticed, almost
incognito, Tellogon slipped into this
country early in tho season. New York
managers knew nothing of the actor's
presence until ho was on Broadway,
looking for an engagement, Tellegon
picked tip Kngllsh while he was touring
America with Bernhardt on hor two
last v i h i t here, and became so enam
oured with the land oi tho iron ami tho
home of the brnve that Paris seemed
tame by comparison when he returned
to thRt dear France. With Minn Don
nelley in "Murift Kosa" Tellegen is
fpt'ii at whut Americans consider hii

Hungarian goulash. That's all that
can lie sold for Henry W. Savngo's
"Pari", (pronounced "Sherry", by
the way) at tho Liberty. There is a
little good Viennese nuiMC, a few catchy
songs, a bewildering display of risque
J'urisiuti costumes, a bit of novel seen-ry-and

total. The piece is utterly innocent of
plot and Its sopsrnto actions do not
hang together at all, tho onsomhlo be
ing more like a light opera. That leads
up to a natural query: Why Is Mlr.nl

Tho little Hungarian has a pleasing
appearance, but a voice not above the
avornire. Hv xeusoii of her natural
smallnens and her grotesque movement
she U comical. Hut as au opera star
she has nothing to commend hor. Small
we wonder thnt American girls with
winning figures and faces, superb voic

ed when Kurnpraui with nothing but
burlesque gnit and unpronouncable
name to recommend them can come
over here und coin urn ml instant vogue
and three figure salaries. Mint Ilajos
i a likeable person, with a few amusing
antics, but that hardly accounts for her
tarring in two musical shows and a

introduction, "I might proface my re
marks on this subject by the statement
that during my career of forty years
on the stage, I have novor prepiously
contributed an article to a magazine
or put my name to a book, which is
something of a record in these days,
where every man iu his own Boswcll,"
At last it has como the actor's
union. Under the name of the Actors'
Equity association some of the lead
ing thospians of Broadway have or
ganized for mutual protection, and thoy
are wookly ombracing within their
ranks tho leading playorB of America,
both men and women. The stage hands
organized thomsolves into tho Theatri
cal Mechanics' annotation and by shoor
numbers obtained improved conditions
for themselves. They got more pay and
loss work, Tho vaudeville performers
formed thcniBolves In tho shape of
transportation, inoro stable contracts,
more efficient stngo aiBtnnco from the
theatres and other improvinents. Now
tho legitimate actcrs have formed an
association for the purpose of insisting
on their rights. Francis Wilson is the
president of the new organization, Hen
ry Millor, who is, is not, is have it
your own way going to rotiro, is vice
president; Bruce McRae and Howard
Kylo, secretaries, and Howard Purdy,
treasurer, Goorge Arliss, Digby Bell,
Jefferson Do Angelis, Robert Kdoson,
Wilton Laekayo and such well kaown
actors form the council of tho assocla
tion, Hero are a few things that the
Actors' Equity association will work
for:
Transportation for actors from New
York when they join a road company
out of town nnd transportation back
to New York when the show strands or
tho actor is given his notice, To limit
tho period of free rehearsals. To re
establish the two-weeks notico cluuso.
To protect un actor who shall be given
more than a week 's rehearsals, from
being discharged without compensation.
To prevent tho Increase of oxtrn per
formances without pay. To get full
pny for all weeks played. To Beek an
adjustment with regard to tho cost of
woman's costumes. Thnro aro reason
able, demands say the actors, As mat

They aro given thoir fnro to the point
where thoy join, but when they close,

When is Woman Capable
of Deepest Affection?
BY ELLA WHEELER WILCOX.
The old, old question is again pro
pounded: When is a woman capable
of the deepest affection!
When are the emotions at their rip
est? Woman is always a difficult and
complicated subject to analyze, and at
the best we can only generalize.
One fact is too obvious to need more
than merely stating the girl under
twenty is wholly incapable of forming
a lifelong attachment.
If she does form one which lasts
through all the vicissitudes of maturer
years, it is merely a happy chance
which has aided her, not the result of
hor ripened judgment, fine intuition
of mature emotions.
One, however, might let this state
ment cover all attachments at what
ever age since marriage is so evident
ly a lottery. An engagement of seven
years, where the lovers saw each other
daily has been known, to end in sepa
ration after a year of married misery.
Nevertheless, as a rule, a woman of
twenty-five is better able to form a
correct idea of a man's character than
a girl of eighteen, and she is capable of
a deeper love and a more practical ex
pression of it.
So far as the real intensity of a wo
man's affections are concerned, thoy
are rarely at their strongest before
thirty-five. A womnn of that age is
to all earlier ages what August is to
April, May or June. She craves affec
tion more than she craved it in her
adolescence, and she is better able to
appreciate and reciprocate.
This is why so many Beemingly hap
py marriages result in a climax of dis
aster in middle life. This is why so
many women of thirty-five or forty
figure in scandals and divorces of the
day.
Men who delight in assuring us that
they are our mental superiors in all
the sciences and arts, men who have
doveloped their brains and grown great
and wise and wonderful in every direc
tion save one, have yet to learn thnt a
wife of middle age which is the very
zenith of life is no noro ready to
"settle down" into the dull common
place of "understood" affection thnn
is tho sun at midday ready to set be
hind tho western hills.
Every day we meet bright, intelli
gent men whose lives are fillod with
worldly aims and ambitions, and who
are supremely unconscious ' of or in
different to tho fact that their wives
are starving for expressed affection.
We have hoard men laughingly refer
to sentiment as a thing outlived or
submerged in the sea of reality, and
use the plural indicating that they be
lieved the condition was mutual, when
we know at tho same time of the heart
hunger and restless discontent of the
wives who were included in this phi ml
reference.
Thousands of American men today
believe they are the most unselfish and
devoted of huslmnds because they are
giving brain, mind and body to busi
ness with the Idea of bestowing luxu
ries upou their families.
Tho middle-aged man may bo satis
fied with his ambitious aims, but It is
tho middle-aged woman who crnves and
fools tho deepest love.
Vnfortiinntely this is tho era of tho
middle aged woman; it is her hour of
tion and achievement.
The lust dermic has shown a marked
progress lor tne woman or maturity
toward a broader, higher plane of use
fulness than she hns ever beforo oc
cupied. Everyday new doors aro flung open
for women whose homes aro disap
pointing and whose hearts aro unsatis
fied; doors which lend to agreeable
busy days well employed.
And this larger outlook for women
Is making her a bettor companion and
lessening the chances of her occupy
ing tho unenviable position of a ne
glected wife as the years go by,
It Is helping her understand men bet
ter and perhaps by this better under
standing she will come to realize just
wherein she failed of old to keep his
affection.
For when all is said and done, this
fact remain
No absolutely lovable woman ever
goes unloved through life.

Being an Econmist
BY ADA PATTERSON.
No, I shall not speak first of saving
money. I shall place that last, where
important things are often found. But
you who read this want to be success
ful, and I assure you that successful
folk are always economists of some
sort, or several sorts.
" No one ia truly successful who is not
an economist of strength. The per
son who parses through life, under the
weight of serious physical ailments is
like a convict who drags a ball and
chain behind him, hindered at every
step. Your health is worth more than
a bank account, of greater value than
a brilliant, high pressure working brain.
It is better than any ether assent you
could have, save a sturdy character.
Save your strength which is your
health, on every occasion as you would
save your last nickle that stands be
tween you and a walk from the Bronx
to the Battery to your work tomorrow.
Think of it as your most precious pos
session. Have you a ring or pin with
a "real stone" in it f You never fling
that about. You are careful that your
glove or lace on your jabo do not de
tach it. One of your chief cares is
that Btone, and yet you never deny that
it ia worth all the care you give it, and
much more. So with your health.
The Right Choice.
If you must choose between a long
walk on the Palisades or climbing tho
Staten Island hills and a day of lying
about in your kimono with the compan
ionship of a novel, go to tho Palisades
or Staten Island. Even though you
think you aro tired and it is an effort
to prepare for the walk, you will come
back glowing as to cheek and eye, and
with new hope in your heart and new
ideas in your brain. Malta it to polish
that most precious jowel you can
ever possoes, even though the wheel of
fortune toss the wealth of one o fthe
Rothschilds into your lap. A billion
aire offered a million to his physician
if ho could make him enjoy his dinner
onco more, and he said it would have
been cheap had tho doctor been able to
provide him such a prize.
Bo careful to eat only such food as
keeps you fooling fit for the day's
work, such as wards off more than oc
casional "tiredness." Eat the energy
making foods. You yourself can dis
cover what they are by observing the
effect of certain foods upon your con
stitution. Manage to get all the Bleep
you need, and in the case of sleep a
rule holds that docs not apply to food.
Eat a little less than you want, but
sleep as long as you desire to Bleep.
Tuko both kinds of baths, air and
water, every day. If you haven't a
stationary bathtub with flowing water
in your fist or room, be ingenious. Con
trive substitutes, as tho towel dipped
again and again into a pitcher of cold
water and isscd briskly over the body,
or invest in a portable tin tub of your
own. Tho money will be well invested
and carrying the water to half fill the
tub will bo perhaps noeded exercise.
Your Thoughts.
That one who desires to be deemed
successful is economical in thought,
not in the amount, but the direction of
it. Thoughts are the shopping hands
that mold this life, lie obeys tho wiso
ninn who wrote: ThinK only tnoso
thoughts that yield fruit in action."
Thought is valuable lio ammunition.
No good marksman ever shoots wildly.
Nor should you waste your thought
stuff. Think about how you can make
your work better instead of how you
can Induce "the boss" to raise your
salary, for it- is an almost universal law
that the better the work the bettor the
snlarv.
Think about how yon enn become n
finer woman, broader of mental range,
deeper of tenderness mid sympathy,
with an ever-increasing stock of useful
and helpful information in tho store
house of your mind, useful to yourself
and helpful to others. Think of how
yor relations to your family mny be
come stronger and sweeter. Think of
George, who tells you you havo beau
tiful eyes, but not. unduly, not more
than you can help, for nntro and in
stlnct take care of such thoughts.
There will be plenty of them.
You will find tl.eni embarrassing
enonth without encouragement. And
lon't dwell too much on marriage.
You may decide not to marry. Tho
term "old maid'1 Is becoming obsolete
and with it Is passing the dread of
single life. Better single peace than
wedded discord.
The Emotions.
Be economical of emotion. No, I am
not counselling you to become hard
hearted, an oyster of humanity. I am
simply pointing out that emotion as
other good things of lifo may be abus
ed and wasted. Be of quirk sympathy,
but don't overtrain your sympathies by
pitying the unworthy. Don't believe in
ill luck tales. If no-called ill luck stead
ily pursues anyone, be sure he beckons
it. Now and then circumstances seem
to combine against everyone, but the
brnve soul pushes hi way through
them. Dark days, evil months, unprof
itable yenr or years, may be the por
tion of anyone, but a life-long train of
"ill luck" is caused by some inherent
weakness or vice lu tho person so pur
sued. If you are living at home and con
tribute littlo or nothing to the family
revenue, you should be able to save a
little even out of the first salary. B

WIND ESTABLISHES NEW
RECORD FOR THIS WINTER
Some Expected to See Willamette
Bridge In River, Bat It Survived
Strenuous Night.
The local atmosphere was shattered
into a million pieces again last night by
the tail end of a big blow originating
somewhere south of here, and it was so
much more active that the one visit
ing the city before was but a little
whiff in comparison. An open window
last night after 6 o'clock meant a
paneless one this morning, a loose gate
a wreck and even shingles on the
houses experienced great difficulty in
remaining in place.
Sturdy oaks, big firs and even small
er and less top heavy trees suffered
from the blasts. One of the mighty
oak trees near the John II. Albert place
in Yew Park succumbed to the wind
early this morning and went crashing
to the ground. A big fir almost in the
center of Marion square toppled over
and is now lying with its long roots
sticking up. Two strong locust trees on
North Church street fell for the play
ful breezes, while many fruit trees
were either broken down or blown over.
. Has Speed Record.
It is said today by those who were
compelled to be out last night at 12
o'clock that at times the wind sailed
through the Salem streets at the rate of
60 miles an hour, and it was with dif
ficulty that a pedestrian could walk
facing it.
The danger lights which were Bet up
over open excavations and other places
where the streets are torn up, were
plucked from their respective resting
grounds and rolled norhward. The
street and residence lights winked,
fretted and nt times went out for a
short while, but were not put out of
commission for good.
It was fully expected by some that
the Willamette river wagon bridge
would be down in the water this morn
ing, but the old structure is still stand
ing, and, with the exception of a few
telephone wire twisted and wrapped
about the steel girders by the wind, it
is apparently in the same condition as
always. :
The lookout in the little house on top
of the railroad bridge thanked good
ness that the workmen had done a good
job in securing the shelter last night.
Ho declares that the wind shrieked and
bellowed all night, and that the river
was thrown in big, choppy waves by tho
gusts.
The wator gauge at the Oregon City
Transportation company's dock this
morning showed tho Willamette river
to be at tho 13-foot, 8-inch mark. This
is a record stage so far this season, but
the water was falling at noon, and it
is expected that tho river will return to
its normal height within a short time.
Unless the recent rains have dis
lodged tho snow in the foothills up the
valley, no- great raise of tho river is
predicted.
Library Building Crushed.
A monster oak tree which stood south
of tho employes' library building nt the
Salem Woolen mills blew over last night
and striking the building crushed it to
the ground as though it had been an
eg shell. Fortunately no one was in the
structure when tho onk dropped and
the only damage wa tho complete do
molishment of the library.
Waiting Room Moved.
Tho station at Hazelan, on the Ore
gon Electric, two miles south of Snlom,
was blown to the edge of the river.
Wires hold it from toppling into the
river.
