the first company to pay the claim ON DR..
Loring's life, although by the terms of the

FoGG's FERRY.

FoGG'S FERRY.
The sale of seats for Lizzie Evans per-
Torrance of ''Chip, in 'Fogg's Ferry" will
commence at Portland Theatre this morn
ing, and the performances will be given
Friday and Saturday. Miss Evans is called
by the critics consummate little actress
such an one as it is a real pleasure to see. She
is clever and conscientious-two traits sell
dom blended-to the utmost. In stature
small, in figure girlish and with features
rather intelligent than handsome, she makes
amends for every defect by the unfagging
spirit of her playing and by her natural and
younger than Annie Pixley,. twenty years
Younger than Lolita, and thirty years
younger than Maggie Mitchell. This is,
with the audience, already a great advan-
tage But when to it is added talent as
fresh and bright as her years, the difference
is certainly not to be deplored.

'Aphrodite," or the Tinted Venus"
which relates of the complications produced
by young barber, who is engaged, placing
the ring intended for his bride on the finger
of statue of Venus, and the consequent
FRANKS of the statue, is happy conceit and
in the hands of able artists could be made a
very graceful and charming musical comedy.

produced it at Portland Theatre last night
It is better adapted to the rural towns than
the cities. Miss Bate as Aphrodite sang
very we'll, and the other characters did con-
siderable variety business, which caused
good deal of laughter. There was not
large audience present.
THE MIKADo.
Already the plans of City Hall, at Stock
bridges, indicate that capital houses will
greet the Stetson "Mikado'' Company on
next Tuesday and Wednesday. The large
orchestra, the full chorus, the pleasing cast,
embracing well-known Portland girl,
Alice earle, and other well-known names,
should be sufficient to crowd the hall.
NOTES.
There are four Booths of the rising gener-
alton on the stage-three children of JuniuS
Brutus Booth and one daughter of John
Wilkes Booth.

ton Museum, beginning Easter Monday. Mr..
Richard Mansfield will also play at that

Modjeska, according to the Washington
Critic, has promised to play Juliet at least
once more, in celebration of the birth of her
first grandchild. Doubtless the grace and
charm of the actress will be sufficient to
tempt the audience to disbeleve in her new
ly-found honors if the promise is redeemed.

A STORY FROM THE DALLns.

rs
In the year 1888 Henry Ward Beecher
made trip to the coast, including
Oregon, on a lecturing tour. and of
course great was the. curiosity to see
and hear the noted divine On Mr..
Beecher's arrival at the Dalles there
were thousands crowding TO the train
to see, speak, or shake with the distin-
guished guest who was introduced to
Major Handley and Col. Sinnott, both
natives Of the {" Emerald Isle" In honor
of the Beecher party they set up
sumptuous dinner, which the travellers
heartily appreciated. After dinner
Brother Beecher (by request) placed his
autograph at the top of the page of the
big hotel register in fearless hand,
and great was the curiosity Of the COM
munity to see the signature of the noted
speaker, in so much that it was carefully
guarded by Messrs, Handley & Sinnott.
but to their great grief one morning the
name of Brother Beecher had disap-
peared from the hotel register. They
Immediately offered reward Of 500 for
the recovery of his signature, but in
vain no one responded. Stopping at
this hotel at the time was barber by
the name of Stemmetz, man OF good
and sober habits, who was noticed to be
on big spree (after the reward was
offered). and all his friends could say or
do to restrain him were in vain. One
night soon after the porter heard a
heavy fall above, and flew up to Stein
metzs room, and, Mortified, saw the
poor man dead upon the floor. An
inquest was called, and 10! the lost
signature of Brother Beecher was found
in his pocket. The jury brought in a
verdict Died from overwhelming.
which was caused by remorse on ac-
count of stealing Beecher's signature"

ear of his future mother-in-law. Until

TIN GLAZE

I VII
Tin which makes white
enamel-was known in very early times.
The Moorish refugees appear to have
brought it into Italy. but its extensive
use is due to Luca della Robbia, who
began life as a goldsmith, and then tried
sculpture, in which work he grew so
popular that he gave up marble for
the easier material. clay. 1t was the
need of an enamel to make his clay
weather proof which led him to expert
ment with tin, the result being the
Della Robbia ware. in which South
Kensington is so rich. Della Robbia
belongs to the beginning of the fifteenth
century. 1t was nearly hundred years
later before the French got saturated
with italian art Charles Will, Francis
[, and Henry IL, all had good deal
to do with Italy, the last by his marriage
with Catherine de Medici, bringing the
two countries very close together. Lead

covers, &c-had been going on at
Beauvais, Rouen, and elsewhere but

ence guided the French along two lines
lone leading to the jewel-ike Limoges
enamels, the other to ware like those
called Groin and Palsy. For in pot
terry. more even than in other arts, the
leaps which progress has made have
been mainly due to individuals. In
Italy the impulse was given by Della
