Janet Waldorf.

The advent of a new aspirant for
Stellar honors in the person of Miss
Janet Waldorf, who is already fortified
by many kind expressions of admira-
tion from the interior press, is an
event that demands something more
than passing notice. Miss Waldorf
has been under the tutelage of Mrs.
Ada Dow Currier, and has been study
ing hard for the past three years.
Principal among Mrs. Curriers' claims
to distinction is the fact that she
launched Julia Marlowe upon the stage
as she is now attempting to bring
Janet Waldorf before the public.-Los
Angeles Herald.
Miss Waldorf will appear at the
Vogt, on Monday and Tuesday next,in
''Ingomar, the Barbarian" and 1.-The
Hunchback."

OpINEs OF THE MESSAGE.
1t Does not Meet the Approval of Port
landers

1t Does Not Meet the Approval OF Port-
landers.
A number of prominent citizens of
Portland were interviewed by the Ore
gonian regarding the presidents mes
sage, and the following is some of che
comments:
w. W. Cotton-IfI were queen re-
gent of Spain, think, after reading
the presidents message to congress,
1 would write him something like this:
"Dear President McKinley-If you
will kindly say what it is you want me
to do may grant your request"
L. B. Cox-In my opinion the presi-
dents presentation of the Cuban situa-
| tion is excellent, its tone very proper
as communication from the executive
to the legislative branch of govern
ment, and it's whole spirit significant
of the responsibility felt by the presi-
dent in taking action which may
eventuate in costly and deplorable
war. But think the administration
has made a great mistake in ground
ing our attitude towards Spain upon
the condition of affairs in Cuba to the
practical exclusion of our immediate
grievance growing out of the Maine
outrage. Andrew Jackson would have
transmitted the findings of our court
of inquiry with demand for an i'm.
mediate apology and adequate repara-
tion for the destruction of our ship
and the death of so many of our sea-
men, and he would have sent our feet
to Cadiz or Havana to enforce his de-
mand. This is my sentiment.
Judge E. D. Shattuck-It is spoken
of as rather tame affair. If General
jackson had been president the Span
iards would have been driven off the
island Of Cuba by this time.
W. S. Mason-On general prIn-
ciples 1 do not like the message.
don't think it is strong enough-in
fact, it is weak. l don't think that the
precedent has struck the sentiment of
the country this time by any means
Any money Spain might pay would
never Offset the blood of the Names |
men.
Judge George II. Williams-The |
presidents message was not at all sat
isfactory to me. 1t was not nearly |
vigorous enough, nor did it clearly set |
forth the way to maintain armed in
tervention. The sentiments express
ed in congress yesterday suited my
views exactly.

Mr.. Skibbe Gives Description or Tip

F. W. L. Skibbe, of this city, who is
at present located at Skaguay, has
! written to his wife description of a
| recent trip he made across the sum-
| nit from which the following extracts
| are taken:
81 left here Monday morning in
company with Henry Borne and
George Link, of John Day. to take in
the sights Cd the trail, and it is sight
shat does person good to see.
On the way up the mountain l was
walking by the side of pack train
(the mules were all tied together) and
it was noticed that the last mule was
down, and had been dragged for some
distance up the trail by the others.
His pack had been left by the side OF
the trail. At another place one of the
mules broke his leg while crossing a
creek and had to be killed. They have
an awful time getting up the steep
mountains and use all kinds of methods
for getting goods up the mountain.
At the White House hotel. we'll up on
the mountain, we got 10 cent dinner,
but it wasn't much for the price. After
tedious walk Of fifteen miles all the
way up hill we got to the summit
where thousands of tons of freight are
cached. This is where the outfits are
piled up in a heap and inspected by
the Canadian customs officers. 1t is
stacked up in pile mile long.
We passed on by number of lakes
and reached Log Cabin, where we
found Nicholas Fox, the French boy,
and Frank Klein, all of The Dalles.
We spent the night there sleeping on
the snow, and next morning started
for Lake Bennett. &c tting there about
noon. 1t was pretty bad day. the
wind blowing hard and the snow drift
ing so that we could hardly see the
trail. On the trail met man from
Circle City who knew Gus and Charlie
Brown, who left The Dalles year ago,
and says they are doing we'll working
mine on shares. They are at Dawson.
On the way back faced terrible
storm. When the wind blows up there
it carries everything before it, so that
one can hardly travel. stopped over
night at the Chilcoot Hotel, and met
Mr.. Hammond, who was a photo
grapher in The Dalles.
There were all kinds of people and
outfits on the trail. and the men who
are packing over the summit have an
awful time of it. White Pass is much
better than Chilcoot, but bot
enough. The men who -
of them have hard. >
they get.
