"Zuluna. The Sultan's Daughter"

Local thespidns and near thespians
last night appeared before half an
audience in a three-act comedy drama
under the title of "Zuluna, the Sui
tan's Daughter" at the Oregon thea
ter and the performance was quite
as good as any other amateur produc-
ton seen here this season. Several
of the cast displayed genuine histri-
onic ability and their efforts were
warmly received by those below the
footlights.. On the other hand there
were several who gave a good repre-
sentation of the school boy forgetting
his piece which made some painful
situations other than those written
in the play.
Perhaps If these same persons had
had speaking acquaintance with
their lines, they would have sustain
ed their roles in a capable manner,
but unfortunately the audience lost
sight of any budding talent in the
evident lack of preparation.
Miss Maud Sheridan in the leading
role of Zuluna, the picture come to
life, was by far the favorite of the
evening. Clad in the rich oriental
garb of the Turkish maiden, with
her supple grace and naive manners.
hers was a welcome presence on the
stage. Her conception of her part
and the spirit of her portrayal were
admirable and ELECTED hearty ap-
plause from the patrons of the pro-

Portland made fine start, earning

MICE ARE BLAMED

Theory Once Subdued Is Re-

AN INVESTIGATION LIKELY

CONFIDENT WITH DISEASE.

Kew York. May 2S.-Within recent
Yeas the fact has been establisi-e ed
firmly that rats and ground squirrels
spread the bubonic plague. 1t will be
news to the majority of laymen, how
ever, as well as to a large number Of
physicians, that the belief is spread
ing that mice disseminate measles.
This theory was the subject Of pa
per recently read before the WashlnS-
ton Cd. CT Medical society By DR.. a
+. A. King of that city. The Medical
Record says of his paper:

time, and not so very long ago, II

support of the theory.
Numerous cases are on record in
which measles appear TO have orig
mated from contact with straw. Ac-
cording to DR.. King. during our civil
war it was generally understood that
the soldiers in both armies contracted
measles by sleeping upon straw In
1862, DR.. J. II. Salisbury Of Newark,
o., obtained from wheat straw spores
of fungi, which when introduced into
the body produced a disease which ap-
peared to be Identical with measles

those who had been inoculated with
these spores.
True, Salisbury's conclusions seem
to have been discredited by subsequent
Investigations; but if the mouse be
admitted as an geological factor in
producing measles, the conflicting re-
suits Of Salisbury and his opponents
may possibly be reconciled, for as DR..
King points out, one may have been
experimenting with straw containing
mouse infection and the others with
straw in which the mouse factor was
absent.
rs there any COINCIDENCE between
an increased prevalence of measles
and mouse plagues2 DR.. King at
tempts to answer this question in tie
affirmative, and to show that during
the three most notable mouse plaques
of recent times measles was also
prevalent in one Of the localities at
the same time
THE scenes Of the superabundance
of mice were, respectively, Scotland,
Thessaly and Russia, during the years
1S92-i8S5. In Scotland, in 1893, when
the mouse plague had reached its
acme, the number of deaths recorded
from measles was greater than for
any previous year for which a record
was kept The author adduces other
evidence, presumably in favor of the
theory, and while cOnfessing that this
is for the most part only probable or
presUmpJiVe, explains how positive
evidence might be obtained by expert
ment
At present, il must be confessed
the case against the mouse as the
originator or transmitter OF measles
IS not very strong, but the matter is
worthy of further investigation"

What Soldiers Liked.

No matter how serious the situation
nor how near to death the soldiers
were, they were always able to ex-
change a few jokes and to see the
comic side of life. AS evidence it Is
related that while in camp at Mem
phis, Tenn, a great flood came On and
the camp of the Union soldiers was
put worry largely under water. 1t was
the custom of the soldiers to dig large
holes in the ground, for disposal of
the waste from the camp, and these
were covered over, but at the time of
the flood the water prevented the
passerby from seeing the covering. 1t
was Just at this time that DR.. David
Evans, whose home was at Boston, be-
low Richmond, and who was a sur
geon, made his appearance in a hand
some new suit of clothes and went out
to visit a certain portion of the camp.
In doing so he unfortunately lanSed
on top of one of the waste pits, with
the result that he fell through, his
new clothes were ruined and he had
to stand for a great deal Of joking.
