Protestant Editor and Pauligts.

We alluded recently TO the suggestion
which our Methodist contemporary. the
New York Christian Advocate. ma lles
that number Of Protestant champions
be trained to attack Catholic doctrines
even AS our missionaries to non Catho-
lics arc trained to advance and defend
fhon. The editor OF the Christian Ad-
Nocatc adTires the training of such
missionaries no less than The zeal which

them in their attempt TO convert non
Catholics, although he thinks that their
arguments I'm favor Of Catholicitv can

directed to the subject. has prepared
himself in the last week to meet any
Paulist. Our opinion is that he would
be ground to powder at the first onset.
The young man referred to has consid-
cradle ability, but he certainly can not
in three days or three weeks. if he can
in three years, prepare himself to meet
the history and the subtle argumenta-
ton which viii be employed against
him. We sYmpathize with him. for be-
fore our eyes were open we rushed into
p similar controversy, and. after with
ing a while retired in very humble
mood; and 1t required two years of
study and observation to be satisfac-
Jorily prepared TO encounter a person
whose whole life has been devoted TO
forging arguments to carry his point"
This Methodist editor is more frank
than many Of his fellows who, no mat
ter how often crushed by Catholic
truth. rise again to iterate the same
old arguments. He is also more sensi-
bile. as well as more Christian in tenn
per. for he says:
An abusive spirit on the part OF
such missionaries of Professionalism as
We propose would defeat the end. The

All this is very good. very sensible
and Christian, but is our friend sure
that Catholicism has been greatly

mission OF Catholicism in the world
was, and is. TO bring all institution and
ideas and men into harmony with the

Yet what can the best actress do
without plays?' Thesreally strong plays
are not many, and not so very strong.
In fact the English playwright no lon
ger produces vigorous and memorable
dramas, even of the transient order.
Clever plays. bright plays, interesting
plays like those of Augustus Thomas
and Mr.. Pinero; savage plays like Ib-
sens and lop-sided. gay melodramas

farces to suit the talents of Mr.. Haw-
trey: Clyde Fitch bubbles of soap-and-
water, Star insists for Julia Marlowe
and Ada Rehan, recipe-plays from the

cry of Charles Frohman. plays for the
Drew family in alt its branches; all
these we have in abundance. They are
of the same nature as homeless Goldfish,
not merely invertebrate, but habby.
Oh, yes, they taste we'll: so does bone
less Goldfish. One sleeps very well after
them. and their memory burdens no
part of the brain. Not one of them has
an idea or an emotion worth. recording.
Both ideas and emotions have disap-

from the dramatist So we'll is this sin

ters that one dramatist, in the pay of
the syndicate, undertook to supply a
play month, to keep one theatre go

necessity for ideas and emotions, only
for good recipes. The play which por-
trays real life, human emotion, which
grips the heart-strings. or thrills the
marrow, and leaves the undying i'm

was of that sort, presenting an idea
and an emotion in the most charming
manner. The play could not be called
great i'll any except the financial sense,
but it was a play to be remembered

REDUCE
POWER OF
SOUTH

Washington, Dec. s.-senator Platt,
of New York, yesterday introduced a
bin, prepared under the direction of
the committee of national affairs of
the Republican Club of the City of
New York, having as its purpose the
reduction of the representation in con-
gress of Southern states that have dis
franchised the negro vote. The meas
ure, if enacted in its present form,
would lessen the membership in con-
gress by 49, according to the estimate
that has been made by the Republican
Club, which originated it,.
The bill and explanatory statement
issued by Senator Platt were referred
to the committee on the census.
The bill provides for the reduction of
representation in the house of repre-
sentatives as follows: Alabama, from
8 to Z; Arkansas, to 6; Florida, 3 to
2; Georgia, IL to 8; Louisina, z to 81;
Mississippi, to 6; North Carolina, 10

Following the opening of the New

is in circulation that the Grand Opera
House in this city will be added to an
other vaudeville circuit, and to be used
as high-class place of entertainment.
The vaudeville craze has struck Port
land with vengeance, and but two le-
gitimate theaters remain of the dozen
or so play houses now in that city. Ev-
erything is vaudeville. Regular theat.
rical people, instead of going out
with stock companies, do stunts at so
much per week for the circuits, and
there threatens to be dearth of actors
and actresses of the old school. How
long the fad will last is hard to deter
mine, but it is rumored that the busi-
ness has all that it will stand in Port
land at the present time, and more too

GRAND NAY CHANGE
fo TO VAUDEVILLE

Regarding the change at the Grand,
Local Manager Meredith, when asked
this morning, said: 81 have not heard
of the transfer, and do not know any
thing about il. As far as l know there
has been no move on the part of Mr..
Cordray to do anything of the kind,
for we have large. number of first
class attractions billed for the winter,
and it is doubtful whether the change
would pay from financial standpoint.
However, I am not informed on the
subject, and what say is merely con.
lecture"
Mr.. Cordray could not be reached in
Portland, and for the time being the
report cannot be verified. 1t is to be
hoped that the rumor is untrue, as
Salem could i'll afford to miss the lead
ing road shows for the additional
vaudeville house.

Nlrs. wiggins, stereOpticOn Exhibition

MIS- Virgins Stereopticon Exhibition.
A large audience witnessed the fine
stereopticon exhibition of Old World
scenes last evening, given at the first
Presbyterian church, by Mrs. Myra b.
Virgins.
The views presented were interest
ing, and Mrs. Virgins gave a descrip-
tive reading for each picture, so it
was very entertaining. The views be-
gan from the time Mrs. Virgins and
Mrs. Park sailed out of the harbor of
New York City. The pictures were
mostly scenes Of Palestine, and showed
the natives in their home dress, and
their manner of living. One of the
most interesting pictures was the
"Walking Dairy" which showed how
the goats are driven from door to door
and MIXED Perhaps the most inter
esting pictures were the tHome of
Mary and Joseph, - "sea of Gallilee "
and 'Mount Of Olives" The views of
Jerusalem were very good also. The
last picture shown was very much APP
preeiated, and showed Mrs. Park and
Mrs. Virgins, dressed in Greek eos,
tunes, holding water jugs
The whole entertainment was good
and much enjoyed by all.
