STATE
LAND
BOARD
Disposed of Consider
able Routine Work
Tuesday
Ordered all Holders of Ger
tificateS of Sale of Less
Than $50 TO Pay
up at Once

The state land board was in session
at the state house yesterday after.
noon for the purpose of disposing of a
quantity of routine business. Among
the matters coming up for considera.
ton was the application of John
Adair, Jr., of Clatsop county, for the
refunding of the sum of $500 paid for
swamp land in 1872, and for interest
at the rate Of per cent on the sum
paid, the total claim aggregating
about $1,000. The board is opposed to
paying the interest charge, unless the
attorney-general, to whom the matter
has been referred for an opinion,
should decide that the sum is due.
The claim grows out of the sale OF
swamp land under the act of 1870, and
Adair's certificate was issued in 1872.
In 1887 the legislature called I'm all
swamp land certificates on which less
than 20 per cent had been paid, and
the holders were reimbursed for their

Gates called in, but was not presented
until a few days ago. and the ques.
tion is on the payment OF the interest.
The board yesterday ordered that
the clerk notify all holders OF certifi.
Gates OF sale for school lands, owing
less than $50, TO pay up at once, or
their certificates would be cancelled.
There are over 400 OF these certifi.
Gates outstanding, and the holders OF
the lands have escaped taxation by
reason OF the lands standing in the
name OF the state. In order TO have
the lands properly recorded and
taxed, and TO dispose of all the small
balances carried on the books OF the
state land ONCE, this order was made,
and the holders of these certificates.
many Of whom are on the lands, which
are valuable. win either have TO pay
and have the titles in their own names
and pay taxes on the property, or the
certificate will be cancelled, and the
lands will be resold.

Young Jury Secured.

NEW YORK, Feb. 1.-The taking of testimony in the trial of William Hooper Young, charged with the mur- der of Mrs. Anna Pulitzer last Septem- Der, has begun. the jury box having been filled by the acceptance of George H. Wells, clerk, and Michael Cum ningham, real estate dealer, as the eleventh and twelfth jurors. Young, whose appearance was slightly inn proved, was half dragged. half carried into court by a deputy sheriff and at once sank down in his wonted listless attitude. He was closely studied by an alienist employed by the defense, who sat near him engaged in the prep aration of testimony which he will give later on.

a t'You seem to be rather severe in your opinion of some of your fellow players"
 ''I admit it, and I have good reason to be- Why, all my life I have been trying my best to give to the stage a real flesh and blood Irishman one that makes the eye moist one moment and causes smile or a hearty laugh the next without an outlandish cos tune or the aid of a red wig or green whiskers. A comedian who cannot make his audience laugh with clean face and decent looking clothes is not worthy the name and is gaining mon ey under false pretenses and should go way back to the back door and back out. For years have struggled to give the public a decent Irishman and often had to hustle to make both ends meet when some of these low Irish comedians were floating on the top wave of success"
 'fBut you are very successful, now ?''
 ssYes, very, but don't you think I Sn entitled to my present success after pulling so hard against the collar, in an uphill struggle all these years and refusing some very tempting offers of enormous salary to play one of these patch on the pants monkey doodle parts?

MORGAN CHOKED OFF
Senator Tried to Discuss the
 Canal In Open Session.
WAR WITH COLOMBIA IS PREDICTED
If United States Persists In Its Isth- milan Canal PO1icy-Debate on Antitrust Bil1s, Closed I'm
 the House.

WASHINGTON Feb. 7.-For time yesterday in the senate it looked as if the question of the construction of an isthmian canal would be discussed ill open session. MT. Morgan spoke on bis resolution calling on the secretary of the navy for the correspondence re garding the military occupation of the bays of Panama and Colon. He had not proceeded far, however, when Mir. Cullom, who had been following him closely, interrupted with motion for an executive session. which MT. Mor- gan resisted. The chair overruled MT. Morgan's objection, and the doors were closed
 MT. Morgan continued his remarks in executive session, alleging that $3,OOO.- 900 which the United States paid to Colombia would go to the insurgents who made peace last year.
 When open session was resumed, MT. Morgan predicted that if the United States continued it's policy with refer ence to the construction of an isthmian canal war with Colombia was inevita- ble
 After MT. Kean had spoken a short time in opposition to the statehood bill the senate adjourned out of respect to the memory of the late Representative Moody of North Carolina, who died Thursday.
 General debate on the antitrust bill closed in the house shortly before 6 o'clock in the afternoon. The debate had proceeded since 10 o'clock a. m. More interest was aroused as it pro- ceeded, and the closing speeches by MT. DeArmond (Dem., Mol and Mir. Little field (Rep., Mel were delivered to crowded galleries and to very full attendance on the floor. The closing, however, was devoid of brilliant pyro- technics and sensational clashes
 The conferees of the senate and house on the department of commerce bill approached very near the point of agreement on the bill, but adjourned without entirely finishing their work. They were in session about three hours, the greater part of the time be- ing spent in an effort to adjust the diff ferences on the question as to whether the president should be given power to transfer the interstate commerce com mission to the proposed department, as provided by the house bill.

4 a H H.t tttE
 At Jacques theater this week there is being played by Charles Haight and ! Laura Dean one of the cleverest conn edy sketches thas has been seen here for many q day. The act is called, Wanted A Pair of Trousers" and was written by George Totten Smith. It tells the story of a young man who having been out with his friend the night before to a French ball, and coming in rather late. hires room at the Metropolis hotel, Through mis- take the same room is assigned to a young lady the next morning The comedy scene that ensues is excruci- atingly funny. The dialogue is crisp and bright and for eighteen minutes laughter was constantly in evidence Throughout the entire audience. Both NEr Haight and Miss Dean are to be highly complimented upon the excel lent manner in which they rendered this clever little comedy. They are both talented people and we hope to zee them here again.

 Daniel Sully was approached in a fa- nous chop house near the Rfalto on Broadway one night during the hoh- days, by a. reporter who asked his opinion in regard to the controversy now going the rounds of the most inn portant newspapers in the country, concerning the opposition of the Irish societies and general public to the car feature of the Irishman as depicted on the stage. MT Sully said:
 ssIsm glad you came. Sit down and have some vichy for chaser You've struck my tender spot when you men } Sion this subject. Why, when see some of the fellows who claim to be i Irish comedians, giving impersonation ] of Irishmen, who look as much like monkeys as one pea looks like another, I'm reminded of the song, 'Johnny, Get Your Gun or Rouse Nit Elm ICftizens of Celtic extraction are made tO blush until red ms Holsters at some Of these men. who calling themselves EoTnedians, are buffoons of the lowest types. I'm glad to see that many of the Irish societies and the Irish Amer acans generally have taken the matter up, and if the millions of good and true Irish citizens of the United States will go after them in a way aA&8E WILL UG GAGCbA6ly LIE CtdS5C uIOu- key will be a thing of the past The Irish comedian can no longer be tol- erated by Irishmen afd their descend ants, and in the name of common de nency and everything that is manly in flle Irish-American, they should protest against the actions and methods of the fellows who, from beginning to end are a disgrace and an insult to the in- telligence of every man or woman of Irish birth"
 NIT Sully lighted fresh cigar and between the puffs continued:
 Don't think for moment that jeal- ousy of the more successful ones prompts me in speaking so frankly I'm only voicing the openly expressed sentiments of everyone who has a drop of Irish blood in his veins and who is now, in a body, protesting against the antics and makeup of these low Irish comedians being ac- cepted by the public as typical of even i the commonest type of Irish character, and I'm glad to read that the author :. ized delegates in convention assembled 2 have acclaimed against these monkey faced (so-cal1ed) comedians.'

grimaces and wild caperings for that is horse play, not comedy. I will be glad when the public demands the Irishman as he is.
 '"Then you are of the Celtic race
 ssYes, sir, and proud of it. Born in America sos many years ago I daren't tell''
 T don't blame you, MT Sully, for being proud of your race, for some of our greatest men are of Irish descent.
 ''Why, the Irish people are the lead- CTS in all the world to-day. In all posis.Gcs where trust and ability are requisites, the Irish blood is in evil dence. Why, then, should not the stage represent the Irishman as he truly is-a man, not a jackass Witty beyond compare, with many noble traits cropping out, aiding his fellow man-when the stage gives the public such an Irishman, I am confident that the monkey face must go.''
 VAUDEVILLE AT THE JACQUES.
 Everyone who has a word of advice to give during these strenuous times is of one mind in urging people to re main off the streets about the center and other places where the lettering crowds do gather. The writer ad- vises them to spend this evening at the Jacques and enjoy the splendid show that has it's last nevformance to- night. There is nothing but jollity and fun at this theater, and it is all the more to ones advantage to enjoy this fun at a time when the immediate skies seem dark Beginning Monday afternoon there is another grand vaudeville bill headed by Watson, Hutchings and Edwards in 1.-The Vaudeville Exchange" These three star comedy players are among the few of the old-time yaudeyillians who have not been forced to give way be-. fore the incursion from the legitimate ranks, and it is a tribute to their pow CTS that they still, after years of head line experience, are leaders on every bill whereon they figure. We feel little hesitation in predicting that Wat son, HutchingsS and Edwards will be found the three merriest funmakers that have played the Jacques in vaude- vile. They will have the backing of many other noted vaudeville stars, such as Ward and Currdn, the Velli- otts, Charles Kenna, the Andersons and others. Prices are 10, 20 and 30 cents; Afternoons 10 and 20 cents. la- dies 10.
