MR.. CARNEGIE"S OPPORTUNITY.

The tenement-house strike" in New
York with its attendant evictionS,
would be a serious matter. even in
summer time. In the dead of winter,
when the icy blasts sweep down on
the poorly clad people. it is calamity.
A New York dispatch in yesterdays
Oregonian said that an attempt would
be made TO interest Andrew Carnegie
in a movement to build modern tene-
menthouses to be rented at a reason

ton and maintenance, instead of on
what could be wrung from the poor
sweatshop victims that dwell in them
There are great opportunities here for
the steel king. The tenement house
people can get along without libraries,
but they must have shelter. By cutting
down the number of libraries for
year or two, Mr.. Carnegie could build
quite n number of tenement houses
which would not only relieve suffer-
ing ard check the rapacity of land
lords, but might serve 10 ease the
steadily growing sentiment against all
property ownership. which is now be-
ing vigorously spread by socialist agi-
tators.

1.-THE Lion and the Mouse"

One notable feature of the produce
ton of the Lion and the Mouse"
which Henry B.. Harris is sending to
the keylor Grand, Wednesday evening
is the scenery, every piece of which
was built in England. They do things
differently in the tight little isle,
particularly when it comes to the
building of sets needed in the pro-
duction of a play. Take the second set
of the great Charles Klein drama,
which takes place in the private Ii
brary of John Burkert Ryder, the
richest man il the world. The main
entrance to the room is by means of
large double doors, the easement of
which is arched and hanked by spires.
There is no sham about these doors,
they are solid black oak, with knobs
and locks. and the arched doorway is

TIME TO BE SENSIBLE.

Now that Pettibone has been &C.
quilted ii is probable the cases against
the officials Of the Western Federation
of Miners for the murder of ex-Govern-
Or Steunenberg will end. The state has
spared no expense in trying to prove
these men guilty, and it has used tho
best evidence il could secure.
1t now seems as though there will
be but ore man in reach to take the
punishment for the crime, and that is
Harry Orchard, the self-confesseG
murderer of men. The jury refused tc
believe his story. and not enough evil
dence could be obtained to corroborate
it. The question now is, what will the
state do with Orchard?
The defense, and certain so-calleG
socialist orators, have declared thai
he will Lever be punished for his
wickedness: that he has been washed
white for telling lies to convict tee

ADJUSTMENTS
1.-THE Gingerbread Man."

Nixon & Zimmerman's gorgeous pro-
iduction of the musical fantasy of THE
Gingerbread Man" will be presented
by an excellent company at the Keylor
iGrand theater. Thursday. January 9.
The Gingerbread Man" is just as
popular today as in the days of our
childhood, when he grinned good
morning and merry Christmas wheL
he was brought in view. Only the
children who show their pleasure in
his presence are now children of a
larger growth. but the gingerbread
mans popularity is everlasting. The
characters Of THE Gingerbread Man
are all old friends. Little Jack Hor-
Ter, Simple Simon" "Margery Daw,"
''Taffy,'' THE Dragon" sally Lunn,''
Fudge and a whole company of
merry little people that everyone in
the world has known since childhood.
Frederic Ranken has written the
book and lyrics of this play, and A.
Baldwin Sloane has composed the mu-
sic, which is considered the best work
of that clever composer. Some of the
musical numbers are "Mazio," "Beauti-
full Land of Bon Bon," Moon, Moon
Moon" John Dough" Queen of Ny
Dreams" Ding Dcng Ding" and My
Little Teddy Bear" which became the
most popular song il. New York, Chi
cago and Philadelphia, where the play
had loEg runs. The first act of The
Gingerbread Man" takes place in San
IA Claus land, and the second act on
the dividing line between the realms
of King Bum" and King Sugar
Plum The scenic effects of the play
are beautiful, especially tie cloud ef-
feet when little Jack Homer sings
to the moon, and a beautiful crescent
moon swings into view bearing gorg-
eously gowned girl. Santa Claus gold

girls add to the picturesqueness

NEW THEORY SUCCESSFUL
IN INDIANAPOLIS
l.. T. Cooper Makes Many Converts During
Stay In That Civ.

The new theory (backed up by his
preparatory advanced by L. T.
Cooper with regard to the cause OF
most ill health of the present gener-
alton is being sown broadcast by this
young man.
Cooper believes that the human
stomach has become degenerate in
civilized races and claims that good
health is impossible unless the stom-
ach is re-vitalized. This he claims to
DO with his preparation
an article from the Indianapolis
Star during COOper's stay in that city
has this to say of Cooper and mis-
preparation: Residents of this city
are being astounded by L. T. Cooper
and his new preparation.
Reports that preceded Mr.. Cooper's
visit here told of his success in other
localities, but the immense success of
his medicine and the general belief in
his theory was wholly unprecedented
so great is the rush of the public
to this young man that people stand
in line waiting their turn for hours in
an effort to see him. The most inter-
esting feature of this is statements
made by reliable citizens as to the
actual accomplishments of Cooper's
medicine. Among recent statements of
this character the following is a fair
example.
