A Woman's Character.

What a woman should demand of a
man in courtship. or after it, is. first,
respect for her, as she is g woman
and next to that, to be respected by
him above all other women. But let
her stand upon her female character
as upon a foundation; and let the at
tentions, incident to individual pref
erence, be so many pretty addita-
ments and ornaments-as many and
as fanciful as you please-to that
main structure. Let her first lesson
be-with sweet Susan Winstanley-to
reverence her sex.-Charles Lamb.

HEIGHT of Clouds.
How high are the clouds?

Many varying answers have been
returned to this question. and in fact
it may be added that there is no fixed
height for any kind of cloud. Some
remarkably interesting measures of
the height Of clouds were made at vi
emma by an ingenious method. Advan-
tage was taken Of the extremely brill
liant light furnished for the great illu-

in that city.
By means of a protector it was
found that a beam of light could be
sent up to the clouds, producing upon
them a luminous spot capable of be-

points on the earth two or three miles

height of certain clouds of the cirrus

GOOD PLAY AND COMPANY,
SAYS RICHMOND PAPER

The Richmond, Va, Times Dispatch
pays the following tribute to 1.-The
Right of Way" which will appear at
the oregon theater next Monday
night.
The wonderfully artistic work of
Guy Standing and Theodore Roberts
in "The Right of Way is so fresh in
the minds of Richmond playgoers that
the performance last night at the
Academy of Music of this great play
was severe test of the dramatic abil-
ity of Hallett Thompson and p. Aug.

Charley Steele and Joe Portugais, re-
spectively, and that they stood this
test, the inevitable comparison. most
favorably, speaks volumes for their
art Fer it takes actors, not matinee
idols, to play these parts, and these
men are actors.
1t is unnecessary to tell the story
Of the play Those who have not
seen it on the stage have read Sir
Gilbert Parker's book. and for them

The Charley Steele of Hallett
Thompson was very much more
than creditable performance. Dur
ing the first two acts he was practical
ly beyond criticism; the brilliant, cold
dissipated, inscrutable and, withal
magnetic lawyer who doubts and
wonders about the truth, good, evil
was faithfully and artistlcally por-
trayed. He harmed every one with
whom he came in contact, and yet
one could see and feel the bigness
of the man.
And in the third act. when he is
first shown away UP the river, with
his memory gone from the blow on
the head, he was at MS best; tn
whole man was changed-manner and
voice, as well as appearance COM

not quite so strong, so convincing,
but as a whole his portrayal of the
part was clear-cut and thoroughly ar

artist should.
The whole company was good, but
one other deserves special mention

the girl with whom Steele falls in love
in his new and better life. She was
winning and attractive in person, and

house from top to bottom, seemed

TAFT TAKES To
WRESTLING GAME

Washington, May 10.-President
Taft is as fit as a fiddle. Those who
have feared that the president is
over trained should ask DR.. Barker.
That gentleman. who is Mr.. Taft's
physical CONSERVATION, will painfully
reply that the president is in the
pink of condition.
DR.. Barker knows. He has the evil
dence with him. He is reluctant to
talk about it, but several of his init
mate friends are in the secret. When
he got to a. party few nights ago
the doctor looked sad.
"Oh, nothing" he replied, when he
was asked what was the matter. But
1t leaked out.
It seems that when President Taft
got back Friday morning he had a
seance with DR.. Barker. AS the hour
of exercise wore on. the president
got stronger. "A wrestling bout was
begun. Something happened. DR..
Barker is not sure how it took place.
Anyway. he was thrown by the pres
ident. He lit on table or trunk
or chair or something like that
Also he lit on his chest.
No ribs were broken and he was
able to walk home. But he has
little more respect for President Taft
as a wrestler now than he had he.
