MAUD HOFFMAN
Goes Next to England With Willard
She is Social Favorite In the Big
Cities.

Maud Hoffman, the Corvallis
actress, has just completed a week
engagement with Richard Mans
field in Boston. She is described
by those who have seen her in pri-
vate, as most fascinating and. in
teresting woman She is very
handsome, has a splendid complex
ion, magnificent eyes, beautiful
hair and superb fgure. She is not
stacy, but is perfectly frank, simple
in manner, yet dignifed. She re-
members Corvallis and Corvallis
ties wonderfully well, and inquiries
in detail about all her old friends.
Next year she is going with
Willard again to London. She
will not return to America for sew
eral years, as Willard does not ex-
pect to play in America again for
time time. Miss Hoffman has always
been we'll received in London, and
is delighted with the prospect of
returning there. She indicated
her preference in these words; "Of
course, am very fond of my own
America, but I love England" I"
Miss Hoffman has visions of
starring, and then, and not until
then, will she play in the West.
All the while she is studying
French, fencing and music, both
vocal and instrumental.
In Boston, she has had many
social attentions. 1t was there
she studied and made her debut.
She lived, during her recent en-
gagement, at the Touraine, the
swellest hotel in the city. An ex-
cerpt from the Boston Herald thus
refers to her social standing: ''Miss
Maud Hoffman and Miss Ham
mond, a young English girl, who
have been playing Caphurnia and
Portia, respectively. in Mr. Mans
fields production of Julius Caesar,
which ended its brilliant Boston
fortnight last evening, have been
quite the lions of the week socially.
A luncheon was given for them on
Wednesday by Miss Adele Thayer
at her home on Commonwealth
Avenue. That afternoon Mrs.
Arthur Beebe gave reception for
them, and Mrs Andrew Robson
has entertained them. Miss Hof-
man brought letters from New
York to Mrs Gardner, among 9TH
ers. Both the young ladies are ex-
=ceeding1y handsome, as well as
clever, and have made a delightful
impression everywhere"
The. MIS- Jack Gardner referred
to in the clipping is described as the
wealthiest, SWEETEST and proudest
woman in all Boston. She has a
home that is palace, and in ad-
dition, has another called, 'fMrs
Gardner's Venetian Palace in
The Fens. The latter is filled
with rare paintings, sculpture and
various other rare and costly works
of art. She is a leader of society,
and is nuch courted.
< Mrs Hoffman, mother of Maud,
lives IN Washington, but is likely
to accompany her daughter to Lon
don next summer.

The following with reference to the
illness of Representative Hayden, Is
taken from Mondays Oregonian:
Representative Hayden, cf Benton
county, is at the Salem hospital and
will probably have a run Of typhoid
fever. He will not be in attendance
upon the legislature during the re-
mainder of the session. A number Of
the members of the legislature have
been Ill since coming to Salem and
the general opinion is that their Ill
ness is due to the quality Of water sup
piled for drinking purposes. Several
Of the members, upon the advice Of
their physicians, have abstained from
drinking the river water unless 1t has
first been boiled. Mineral water has
a good sale during the session Of the
legislature. Salem's water supply is
taken from the river just above the
business part of town, and there has
always been great difference of opin-
ion as to its purity. Men who come
from Portland and Astoria, where the
water Is known to be pure, agree that
the water here is not fit co drink.

In this respect often noting the fact
that at the time of his visit not more
than half the threshing had been done
In Iowa, and that in Nebraska and
Southern Iowa only small portion
of the corn had been shocked. The

WOMEN or GENIUS.

The history Of learned ladies. with
that of their works. IS Il subject which
awaits the historian. There have been
learned ladies in many ages; one would
like to compare their learning with
that Of the scholars, their contempor-
aries.
Here are few--are their names
familiar, and how many of our readers
would pass an examination in their
works -Hrotsvitha. the tenth century
Terence; Teresa ot Spain. Anne Maria
Schurmann. Anto.nette Bourigron OF
Flanders. la Mere Jeannue, Juana
Inez de la Cruz what about all these
illustrious danes?
Antoinette Bouriguon indited twenty
volumes with her own fair fingers;
Anne Maria Schur@arn wrote a philo-
sophical treatise proving that the fe-
male mind is rs capable Of learning
and OF science as that of the other
sex. In these days who would take
the trouble eithcr . write or to read
such a treatise? she fell into mystic
ism in her old age and had a strange
passion for eating spiders. but every
thing must be permitted TO genius.
Then there was Juana Inez de In
Cruz. She interests one strangely.
because she was Mexican. and one
has never before or since heard Of any
genius or learning coming from the
quarter between California and Texas
and the Terre del Fuego; 1t is a good.
large tract Of country. with n good
many people. among whom there seems
to be neither learning, nor science.
nor art. nor genius. However, Juana
showed the way. While still quite
young she disputed with the scholars
Of Mexico on equal terms. She wrote
poems in several quarto volumes. The
critics seem agreed that the lady's
verses are conspicuous for elegance,
but are deficient in energy.
As for La Mere Jeanne. she was 4
Venetian and not a poet. but the an.
thor OF new system, which she her.
self-no one knew the fact 80 we'll
as herself--declared to he inspired In
this system she assigned the dominion
Of the world 70 woman instead of man.

employed as "boatmen' and sailors.
Women have not invaded the ranks

There are no women apprentices and

yet two women are returned as n
gagged in these employments.
No women are returned as helpers

THE GIRL WHO Is LOVED.

A woman cannot be said to be truly
attractive or popular unless she is
loved and admired by the members
OF her own sex. as well rs the opposite.
She must be welcomed 10y all, old and
young. male and female, or she can.
not be called IN attractive woman
wit mt reservation.
She must be herself. her best self, at
all times and with all people; she must
think and act for herself and express
her own opinions, rather than try to
copy some person she may admire or
who is admired by the lords of crea-
ton. Individuality. when combined
with polite manner and tact, is always
attractive. \ woman's happy, infec.
tious laugh Is better than medicine or
advice, and her CHEEKY presence is rs
welcome as the sunshine.
A girl TO be truly popular never says
mean things about other girls thinking
that the men will like her better, and
she doesn't try 10 monOpolize the at-
tentions OF all the men at once. but Is
willing 10 let other girls have their
share OF admiration and attention
along with her. She doesn't nope and
retreat within herself II there are no
men about 10 admire her, hut she
checrfully sets about making the best
Of matters without them and making
such companions rs she has happier
and brighter for her presence.
II she has 4 grievance she keeps u
TO herself, for a woman with crlev-
ance is very soon voted a bore. Tho
