The Bijou.

In presenting Her Marriage Vow" to their patrons this week, the management of the Bijou seems to have struck the fancy of Birmingham theatregoers. The popular playhouse has been entertaining audiences of large proportions since Mon day.
 The story which the play tells is of ab- sorbing interest. Many quaint and anus ing characters are introduced to relieve the more strenuous passages The scenic effects are very elaborate, and the com pany, which includes among it's members John H. Cossar, Wilhelma Francis, Ed mond Mulkay, Florence Johnston, Donald Meek, Fanny Cohen, James Marcus and others, is a capable one. Performances will be given every night, including Sat urday, with Thursday and Saturday matinees.

Out To-day "Reminiscences of
 the Civil War.
By General JOHN B. GORDOl
 OF THE CONFEDERATE ARMY

These "reminiscences which are destined to take the place on the Southern side held by General Grants Memoirs on the Northern side written by General Gordon from time to time throughout great number of years They no therefore, made-to-order book but the spontaneous reeoectons of very full life. From Bull Run to Appomattox General Gordon was in most of the great fights of General Lees army He knew the leaders of the Confederacy intimately, and his acquaintance enlarged during his career United States Senator by n mate association with leaders of the Union cause He the friend of General Grant to the end of his life. This not narrative history of the war; but records with anecdoe incident and with eoquence the personal experiences of General Gordon and the eminent leaders who were his near friends. No other such intimately personal record has been produced by either side Every chapter contains humorous incidents, and often pathetic ones, which will pass into the permanent history of the war.

this afternoon as they were being
hitched to wagon, and one Of the
horses was killed during the run that
followed The two animals started
down Commercial street. The lines
were foul and the horses were un-
able to run straight, with the result
that they headed for the sidewalk and
ran directly into the door Of the Ma

fallen dpiing the flight Of the team,
breaking the right hind leg at the
ankle. The animal managed to run on
three legs as far as the saloon. and
after being brought to the street was

catchers in the northwest. He said
yesterday he was anxious to play with
the Commercial team next season, and
arrangements will be made to bring
him down, For a long time he caught
Sam Morris, the famous Chemawa
pitcher, and would be a valuable addi-
tion to the Commercial nine. The sue
cess of the clubs baseball and football
teams has aroused great interest N
athletics, and Commercial will now go
in for amateur sport With the best
bowling team that ever represented
Astoria, the club management hopes
to make a record on the alleys this
season, and hereafter will have teams
out at practically all periods Of the
year. 1t is probable a field will be pro-
vided in East Astoria for next season,
so that it may be reached by car. Con-
sidering the inconvenience Of getting
to A. F. C. park, the attendance at the
football games this year has been very
good.

Two bad men, wanted at Vancouver,
Wash, were taken in Christmas
eve by Officers Gammal and Thompson.
Yesterday morning they left the city
in the custody of Sheriff E. s. Bier
seeker Of Clark county. The men are
charged with having broken into and
robbed the blacksmith shop of rail-
road contractor with whom they were
recently employed The men are Mike
Luison and Jens Guddal. A third party
in the mixup, Oscar Larson, is being
held as witness. The three men were
engaged in cutting wood for the con-
tractor at point FIVE miles out of Van
couver. When they had finished their
work they were accompanied by the
contractor to Vancouver, where they
were paid in full for their services.
The presumption was that the men
lleft Vancouver for Portland, but tn
stead of doing this they are alleged to
have retraced their steps and broken
into the blacksmith shop of their form
er employer and removed therefrom
many valuable tools. The tools were
taken to Portland and disposed of to
second hand dealer for the sum of 81. so
After locating his property the corltrac-
tor began to hunt for the thieves sus-
picion having been fastened on the
wood cutters. He was assisted In this
by Larson, who deposed that Luison
and Guddal had compelled him to act
as guard at the shop while they did
the dirty work and later forced him to
accompany them to Gobel. Here he
gave them the slip and returned to
Portland. The two mer are supposed
to have walked to this city, and IS
known that they shipped their stuff by
the steamer Hassalo. A description OF
them was sent TO the local police u
was not long before they were spotted
and their speedy arrest and deporta-
tlon followed.

Telegraphic advices from San Fran
cisco convey the intelligence OF the
arrival of the German ship Elfrieda at
Santos, Brazil, with her foretopsaii
sprung. The telegram states the nee
essary repairs will occupy about 10
days. She Is vessel Of 1649 tons reg
lister. In the opinion of a number OF
the marine fraternity along the beach,
the skipper Of the Elfrieda put into the
Brazilian port for a trivial reason, as
the foretopsail being sprung is not re-
garded as serious mishap- at least
one that would seriously handicap the
ship in sailing out her voyage. She is
consigned to Balfour, Gutherie & Co.

fully replied, "That fellow that runs

who doubtless sincerely regretted the
incident, was roughly handled, the an

 Now as to the origin of St. Valen- tine's day and it's customs" continued the senator, there has been a great deal of transformation disseminated by those who guess, because it is easier than to investigate.
