Strange emotions stirred in the tircasts of 2 300 hardened prisoners in San Qnentin' to day as Abe Euef, former political boss of San Francisco, emerged from the prison gates in freedom. A blanket of sorrow to spread over the grim cor ridors sorrow for the loss of a friend. Whatever Ruef may have been before he entered the gates of San Quentin he earned the deep affection of hun dreds of his fellow prisoners during his incarceration. As the news quickly spread from cell to cell last night that Kucf was to be paroled, bare knuckles rapped on steel walls, and 2,300 men "tulked" nmong themselves by the mysterious prison sys tem, over the departure of Ruef on the morrow. Rapl rap! went the news down the line, from one tier to another and up into the dimly lighted cells on con demned row. Rapl rap! rapT came back the answer. The rifle men quickened the paco on the tier bridges end in the yard and jolted the barrels of the guus against the steel floors. "Cut it out," they grumbled, but the rapping went on, for was it not worth risking the wrath of the guards to dis cuss the departure of the one man out side of Warden Johnston who helped them and their families when the need was great f "He was my friend," was the tribute Ruef received os he spent his lust night in stripes. "I am glad for his sake and sorry for my own that he i. f ree. " As so it was down the lone line of unhappy prison men A helping hand here and there for the men whom (he world had forgotten.

Brady photoplay, "Tho Cub," based on the stage offerings of the sums name. Thompson Buchanan, who wrote "Life," was the author. Miss Hcdman, who had a distinguish ed stage enrcer in Sweden, England and the United States, is one of the numer ous clever and beautiful actresses who owned her principal opportunities to the late Charles Frohman, who brought her to this country. This is her first appearance in motion pictures. The story of "The Cub" is a hithlv diverting one. At the time of some bitter feuds in Kentucky a newspaper editor desired a special story, and as signed a new, young reporter to the job. He, clever and debonair, prompt ly got himself in a terrible mess by fulling in love with ono girl who was prominent on one sido of the feud, and getting himself fallen in love with by another girl ho was on the opposite side. The result, though disastrous to him, was provocative or a series of highly diverting but dangerous situations, which were finally enured up by the intervention of the militia. John Hiiics, an extremely clever com edian who him made a great reputation for himself in World Film features, has a part in which be fairly revels as the cub. There are other highly finished players in thv cast. "The Cub" will be presented at the Oregon theatre storting tomorrow. In addition a vaudeville progiam of merit far beyond the ordinary offering wijl be given by t hing Chimls camp fire girls.
