Is no question that for those who do
want their sympathies swayed as a

acting that will do II eiiectually.

Maude Granger is too finished an
actress for anything of that sort.

the text, but with look, gesture, her

with that subtle bond Of sympathy
which she no artistioally compels her
audience Ia acknowledge and appre-

Granger shows more careful fnisl
than ever before. While she is d

DOMESTIC lNFELlCITY.
A YOund Wife Deserts her Husband
and Leaves Him Distracted
With Grief.

Chas. Harrison and his young
wife came to California from Hi.
nois a year or two ago, and Mr.. H.,
got pinched in the boom down
there, losing his starting capital of
some $4,000. He then came to Sa.
lem last spring and has been work.
ing at the carpenter trade, most
industrious, well-behaved, temperate
young man. He and his wife
boarded at the Scott house, corner
High and Chemeka streets, while he
worked around the neighborhood
with Mr.. Olinger, the contractor.
Last week he was working on a
job in Turner and on Friday even
ing received a heartless letter from
his wife from here, stating that she
was going to leave him and would
never see him, and all such unwel-
cOme announcements. The young
man could not credit the letter as
being true and hastened home only
to find that she had disappeared,
and no one knew whittier.
Mr.. Harrison was heart-broken
and has since been wild with grief
eating nothing and at times almost
unbalanced in mind, so that friends
thought it wise to have careful
watch over him. They have been
married some five years and have
never had a cross word. He loves
her devotedly and thought the feel
lngs were returned warmly, and he
cannot account for the strange ac-
ton thus taken.
a reporter this afternoon inter
viewed one Of The ladies of the Scott
house and was informed that Mrs.
Harrison had gone to Albany,
where she had some friends, and
that it was a case wherein the wo
man had had hard time of it max
ing a living for herself; that her
husband had been a drinking man
and squandered their means, etc,
etc.
Another theory, and indeed the
one with the greatest appearance of /
truth is, that the husband is quiet, /
easy going man, not making that
amount Of stir in the world that |
suits her rapidly moving mind, that
her fancy runs in the line of dash
and excitement, and finding a chap
that filled the bill she skipped out
with him.
At all events she has demonstrate
ed one thing: That she is not worth
grieving over on Mr. Harrison's
part, and he would better brace up
and go it alone. When she finds
herself kicked around by the world
a little while she will be glad to seek
his side again.

Yesterdays BALL GAME.-The
Highland ball ground was open to
the public yesterday to witness a
game between four of the Salem
professionals and five amaeurs on
one side and like combination on
the other. The game was free and
worth the cost. The hard work was
done by the amateurs, while the
professionals "moDkeyed" through
the seven innings with little spirit
or effort, occasionally, however, dis
playing what they could do If
pushed. One side consisted of Nc

Morgan, c.; Crosby, p.; Burnheim,
ID; Smith, %; Frank Feely, 3b;
OlInger, IS; Lutte Savage, rf; Frank
Durbin, CT; Mellen, If. The features
of the game were Will Tarpley's fine
work on second base, where he put
three men out in splendid style;
Frank Feely's capture of hot
grounder and its prompt discharge
70 first base; the faultless work of
Adams as shortstop; Morgan's base
running; Mellen's fly catch; the ease
with which the amateurs could pass
by Leveque's and Crosby's curves,
and the sang froid with which wild
throws were made and good balls
missed by the professionals. The
chief fun for the spectators was the
absence of good playing. The score
stood at the end of the seventh in
ming l3 to 8 in favor of the side
headed by Mccarthy. Ernest Cat
terlin was the umpire. There was
quite large attendance.

Woodburn the next day aud
go on to Portland with him.
Jacobs was detained one day

gone on, but he has not been seen
since by his family or relatives and
