ADJUSTMENTS.

Grand Opera House.-Mansffelds Baron
Chevrial is familiar piece of work, and
one that Is as much to be admired for it's
technical finish as any other in the artists
repertoire. Clean-cut and vigorous, there is
not a detail absent in one of the most repul-
sve and yet one of the most interesting
characters in modern drama. The audience
was enthusiastic in it's admiration of the
work done at the Grand Opera House last
night by the star, by Miss Cameron and by
various members of the company. The play
itself is not a striking specimen of the
dramatist's art but the impersonation of
the senile roue Is one that lifts the per-
Torrance far above the commonplace. The
role is a totally unlovable one, but it is a
masterpiece of art, none the less because
the subject chances to be grueSome. To-
night prince Karl' will be given.
Miss Anna Eva Fay.-Miss Anna Eva
Fay, the attractive spiritualist, will give
another exhibition of her powers at the
Academy of Music next Sunday evening.
Miss Fay is always popular here, and her
manifestations are watched with great in

aptitude or by supernatural power, she

they go away marveling at what they have

skincaid is DispIeased.

Itwas the general understanding that
the members of the state board who Wis
tied the site for the Eestern Oregon asy-
lum last Saturday, were highly pleased
with the selection made by the former
board. But Salem dispatch to the Sun
contains different report, and this lat
ter report will no doubt call for a more
complete explanation from the secre-
tary of Estate. The dispatch says: "Sec-
cretary of State Kincaid is greatly dis
pleased with the site of the Eastern Ore
gon branch asylum. He states that the
location is bad, the land low and not
adapted to the raising of such articles
necessary for an asylum, and the climate
is anything but favorable for the benefit
of the insanes' health. The other mem
bers have not returned to Salem, and
their opinion on the. subject has not
been ascertained.''

American patriotism is not in need Of en-
couragement; 1t Is a natural growth that
reaches the full stature of personal sacri-
flee without the administering of a stimu-
liant But even the purest and most Tg-
orous variety of starred and striped pa
triotism Is The better and the broader for
the snnual celebration of Memorial Day.
Old men who have fought appreciate the
honor done hose who v ere their comrades
in the camp on the march and upon the
field of battle. Young men receive indelibly
the impression that anything they may do
for the country while serving beneath the
country's flag will not te forgotten by those
who survive to be bereficiaries of -sacri-
ficial Valor. Aside from such consdera-
tions, however-whch are somewhat narrow
at their foundations-there is much to be
grateful for because of Memorial Day. 1t
compelJ even the careless mind to thoughts
of heroic deeds unselilshiy dcne. In the
military pomp of the escorting troops Is
suggested the strong armies which saved
the Union; in the rapidly aging wearers of
the unadorned blue is exemplified the mu-
tual fidelity that even the grave cannot de-
stroy: in the flag and fower-decorated
mounds is reminder of the mortality that
cuts shcrt the career even of the heroic.
Not the least pleasing of Memorial Day re-
hections is that which dwells upon the
steady growth of the custom so that 1t is
now a national habit to strew blossoms
above the remains of others than the SOL
dicrs and sailors whose devotion to duty
resulted in the setting apart of the thr-
ueth day of May as day sacred to the de-
parted. Now but few graves are neglected
Memorial Day is probably the most whole
some of our national holidays.

Some ingenious arguments have been ad-
vauce1 by advocates of the overhead trolley
system of street-car propulsion to prove
that it is by no means the dangerous thing
that everybody not prejudiced knows it to
be. But TIE latest effort in this line is so
ingenious that it is amusing. Says man
ager in the Street Railway Gazette: MANY
people in speaking of electric cars use the
term the deadly trolley which is libellous
as well as a missioner. Take the number
