THE TALOFA LIBEL,
Heard Before Judge Webb in the United
States Court Yesterday.

The libel of R. D. Wood VS.. Schooner
Talofa, was heard by Judge Webb in the
United States District Court yesterday.
The libellant says that he was the princi-
nal owner of the schooner Marian on the
3oth OF April, 1893. On midnight of that
dav the Marian was off the coast of New
Jersey, the weather foggy, and the
schooner proceeding moderately in
southwest course, with the lights set and
burning brightly, a full watch on deck
and sounding three blasts from her horn
as required by law. At about 1l.43 her
crew heard fog horn about one point off
her port bow. but were unable to make
out the number of blasts. A short time
after the horn was again heard, and it
was. observed that three blasts at time
were being sounded. The master of the
Marian concluded that the other vessel
must be running south or west, and the
Marian was continued on the same
course. The sound of the horn grew
more distinct, and the master of the
Marian concluded she must be approach
ing and sounding three blasts instead of
one. as she should have done. The ap-
preaching vessel was the Talofa. She
struck the Marian on the port side, car
rying away the latters main and mizzen
rigging and mizzenmast, and doing other
considerable damage. The libellant
claims $4,000 damages and alleges that
the collision was caused by the neglect of
the crew of the Talofa.
The owners of the Talofa answer that
her officers and crew were in the exer-
oise of all possible care, and were duly
observing all rules and regulations for
the prevention of collision at sea. They
claim that the collision was caused by
the oarelessness of the captain and crew
of the Marian, and bring a cross claim
for $500, to which extent they say the
8 Talofa was damaged.
BENJAMIN Thompson appeared for the
libellant, and Symonds, Snow & Cook
for the schooner Talofa.

THE PRESS PORTFOLIOS.
The MidWinter Fair at San Francisco
To Be Illustrated by "America
Photographed"

Number Four Will Be Magnificent Mum
Der on San Francisco and Its Exposi
tion-It VIII BE Ready in Few Days
A Large Demand for Number Three
A few days ago we announced that the
publishers of America Photographed
were preparing surprise for the patrons
of this popular series. This new feature
will be given in No. 4, which will be out
in few days, ana will be magnificent
ly illustrated number on San Francisco
and the Mildly Writer fair. This exhibit
ton is laid out on a magnificent scale,
and illustrations of its handsome build
ings and grounds will be as necessary
in all works on America as those OF the
Worlds Fair. The publishers of Amer
ca Photographed, with their customary
enterprise. have secured series of these
photographs, and they will be produced,
together with others of San Francisco
and vicinity, in the next number. This
is only one of the new features that will
be given by them before the series is
completed. Those who are taking them
may rest assured that every new and
novel feature of our own country and
those of its neighbors will be reproduced
in the same excellent manner as those
already given in the first three numbers.
Part three had large sale yesterday,
and we advise all who have not done so
to secure the parts already out and not
wait to make up sets later The first
three numbers are in stock and viii be
delivered at our portfolio department or
sent by mail under the conditions stated
in the coupon on page 8.
The types made us say yesterday that
the publishers of "Famous Paintings of
the World were prepared to print 1000
copies per week. 1t should have read
10000 copies If the first number had
been correct they would have no need for
customers outside of Portland. No.
is expected daily.
We shall be able to supply No. of the
"Holy Land Photographed" this morn
ing This series is having large sale,
and all will be glad to know that they can
now add one more part to the series.
The demand for the Photographic
Panorama of the Worlds Fair has far
exceeded our expectations. Those who
have taken any of the larger series
which have been offered will not. of
course, want it as all photographs were
taken by the fair authorities and all al
buns must be very much similar. But
we find that many who do not care to
take a full series for the fair alone are
interested in the one we are offering, as
in four parts 220 photographs are given.
We can supply the first three parts now.

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Hoyts "a Texas Steer"

"a Texas Steern is without question,
from the pen of Charles Hoyt. 1t is free
from the farce comedy horse play that
prevails so much in that playwright's
work, and follows the lines drawn by
"The Senator" "The Mighty Dollar"
and comedies of that sort which deal
with life in Washington and political
life in especial.
The play was presented at Portland
theatre last evening. Mr.. Tom Murphy's
characterz stion of Maverick Brander
was admirable. His facial expression
was something remarkable. The i'm
PRESERVATION was quiet, unobtrusive but
very effective. An extremely warm
welcome was extended to Matt Snyder
major Yell of the Farmers Alliance) SO
long connected with the old Portland
theatre, and whose Miles McKenna in
"Rosedale" will not soon be forgotten,
and also 10 Rose Snyder (Mrs Brander)
so we'll known here in the past as Rose
Graham. Miss Alice Evans's Bessie
Brander had about it the bracing atmos-
phere of the Southwest, and she acted
the character with spirit and Judgment.
Mr.. w. H. Bray was very good as the
minister to Dahomey. But it is impossi-
bic to enumerate all, for the piece was
very well cast and very well staged. The
old time negro melodies sung by the
quartette in the first act, were encored
again and again, and the curtain was
called after every act. The piece will
be repeated tonight, and there should
be as crowded an audience present as
was the case last evening.
