Our heart is with Uncle Joe Can
non. He attended the opening of
the Lewis and Clark exposition at
Portland. It was warm-very
warm-that day. Uncle Joe per-
spired freely and before taking his
seat on the speakers stand on the
exposition grounds Uncle Joe
dropped his hat on the table, poured
out half glass of water and care
fully swabbed his head. Mrs.
Goode, wife of the president of the
exposition and authority on social
etiquette, was dumbfounded. Uncle
repeated the bath. Mrs. Goode was
nearly paralyzed. Still warm Uncle
Joe stepped up to the pitcher, in
which he observed a small piece of
ice. Down went his fingers. Out
came the ice, and with it Uncle Joe
rubbed his head and neck and then
whipping the remainder of the cold
chunk dropped it into his mouth as
| if nothing had happened. Mrs.
Goode couldn't stand it and sent a
young man to reprimand the aged
gentleman. The speaker conducted
the youngster to the rear of the
stand, sawed the air with his arms,
and used language forceful and
warm, and tearing etiquette to
shreds. High officials apologized
and Uncle Joe delivered his
address.

 upon Claxton Wilstach's new star yes- terday, on her first visit here as a prima donna, and their verdict was un- doubtedly a compliment to the beauti- full young woman who delighted their eyes as well as their ears.
 "A Madcap Princess is good me- alum in which Miss Brandt may give expression to her art. Mir. Wilstach has invested it with royal raiment and gorgeous environment. but Miss Brandt deserves more enthusiastic and more intelligent support than she was given
 by some of the members of the conn- pany. Let us hasten to add that the entertainment was 6 great success and the matinee and evening audiences en- joyed every bit of 1t. Still one came away with the impression that 1t could have been so much more effective if one Mir. Eilwanger, who essayed the portrayal of Charles Brandon. had shown more intelligence.

 Let us hope, for the sake of Miss Brandt, that the young man who played Brandon yesterday, is an understudy You know the weather we have been having is severe on singers. and 1t may be that 1t was our misfortune to sec Brandon misrepresented by a chorus man.
 Under the circumstances, more credit is due Miss Brandt and other members of the company, especially the male and female choruses. They were fin good voice and the ensembles were molodious and truly musical.
 The pictures we have seen of Miss Brandt do not do her justice. She is a beautiful woman with perfectly moIded figure. "A Madcap Princess pricious Mary Tudor, she bubbled over with spirit and the fun of 1t was pro- Jected into the hearts of the audience early in the opera.

 Drake started before Coffee John fin ished, and entering the little compart- ment, found Maxie Morrow awaiting him. He held out his hand in pleased surprise. She offered him a thick en- velope in return.
 "Oh, I'm in an awful hurry" she began, land I haven't minute to spare. I'm afraid you thought we weren't going to keep our word, but really, MT. Drake, we couldn' help it! was so sorry to keep you waiting so long. but, just as we left the bank saw Colonel Knowlton come in. I was so afraid he'd suspect something, see ing me there with Harry, instead of with you, and Harry was so afraid the colonel would put the secret service men on his track, that we jumped on a car and went right to my house on Bush street, and Harry has been afraid to show himself outdoors since. We're going to try to get away tomorrow to Southern California, but l was bound that you should have your thousand dollars, so I brought it down here. Lucky you told Harry you were coming to Coffee Johns wasn't it? Now, good by and good luck to you"
 With that she rustled out of the res taurant, and Drake joined the group at the counter.

 The proprietor was insistent and though thousand dollars burned in each pocket, the Picaroons, so glorious ly come into port, sat down to a more modest repast than had been set in that room the night before.

cigar to be crowned king of the Bar bary coast! I can never endure the smell of tobacco again without being as seasick as cat in swing. Much obliged for your charity, but I'll call it square for the good Omen."
 Irrationally cheered by the portent, James Wisweu Coffin. Sd, wandered out aimlessly and hoated with the throng down toward the cheaper end of Rear ney street. The cool, green, grassy square at the Old Plaza attracted him, and he entered the little park.
 Meanwhile the plot matched by the hero of PagO bridge, and the deserter of the Philippines, had gone forward without hitch. Drake and Maidslow had met MaXie at the Biograph theater and she had consented to visit Colonel knowlton and represent Drake as her missing husband, that MaidsIow might be safe from being recognized and ap- prehended by the secret service men as deserter. Both husband and wife were affected at this meeting after so many years, and it was. evident to the hero that a reconciliation would be easily arranged. Both were lonely Maxie had worked so hard and Maids low had lived so adventurously that the prospect of settling down to a peaceful married life attracted them equally This was now possible if the legacy of old Max could be collected safely from the colonel Their scheme was nothing less than conspiracy; but. after all, Maidslow, her real husband would be the one profted, for he would receive the money. Maxie's conscience was assuaged by this consideration.
 f Drake called upon the colonel at the army headquarters and passed the or deal successfully. The officer was too busy to spend much time in investi- gation, and, knowing Maxie as well as he did, it did not occur to him to sus- pect fraud. At any rate, the check for Sl5,000, which he passed over to Ad- men (made payable to Harry Maids low) would not be cashed without proper Identification, and the bank would relieve the colonel of this neces- sity.
 How Maidslow was to cash the check was now the question. It was easily solved, at a meeting of the three prin- cipals in the plot, by the decision that old Dietrich, the proprietor of the Bio graph theater could identify the pay ee. He, would undoubtedly believe Maxie's introduction of Maidslow as her husband, at this time, at least. she would be speaking the truth. They left Adnfeh Drake on the sidewalk while they proceeded to this next step.
 The old Dutchman was canny. how ever. "How do I know dat dis man is your husband?" he said You say so, Maxie, but I neffer seen him be- fore! See here, didn't you say Harry Maidslow hat a tattoo mark on his arm alretty? He hat a girls name, 'Dotty,' you toIe me once. Lemme see dat mark, and I will indentify him, sure. Den 1 know it's all right"
 This was easily proved. MaidsIow stripped up his sleeve and exhibited the tattoo mark. and old Dietrich was convinced. He put on his hat to ac- company them to the bank. Excusing himself for a moment Maidslow slipped out and spoke to Admen Drake.
