Much has been written about the greed and avarice of theatrical man agers and producers. but the accusa- lions are often disproved. The pro aucers are out to get all the money they can. but they are frequently Swayed by other motives. One of the best-known managers in New York put on a play last year, and 1t wac a success; such a fattering success that its author was much elated, not to say puffed up. But he nursed ae grievances some of the changes the manager had made in the play. "Mr- Blank" he said one morning to the producer, you would be the greatest producer in the world if you would only stay out of the theater while re- hearsals are going oa. You are fine on putting up the money, but that's all" The manager touched a button on his desk, and said to the messen- ger. Tell my booking agent to stop all performances os this fellows play. I'm going to take it of"

Her Sweet Thought.

Little Marjorie is by no means fond of going to church. She has to sit too still, and 'the man" talks some things she can't yet understand.
 And when you can't understand what the minister means, you must remember that he is talking about good and beautiful things. and you must make up your mind to think of something good yourself"
 That day Marjorie was very quiet in church, and her mother praised her for 1t on the way home.

Slaves of the Rus.Ian Passport.

slaves Of the Russian Passport.
 A peasant leaves his home to seea for work as a feid laborer wherever he can find work to do, and, like every Russian, male and female, he takes his passport with him, which is quite as much a part of him as his soul is. writes E. B. Lanin- It is always a half-yearly passport, which he must re- new at the end of six months, send Ing 1t home in a registered letter to m official at his native place, and in- closing the legal fee and something over for the trouble. The time of re- newal draws near; the workman gets demand for a new passport. Through official neglect or other reason the passport fails to come in time. The honest worklngman who is earning his bread in the sweat of his brow and by the practice perhaps of excep- nonal sobriety Is trying to earn a pit lance for bis family, is arrested sud denly and sent home-that is, is flung Into a forwarding prison, whence he smerges to join convict party, which contain the cream of criminalfty, and Is ground down and made to suffer heifs torments before he gets home.

Ducks Driven by Hunger into Harbor.

Ducks Driven by Hunger into Harbor.
 Owing to stress of weather outside, where they generally dwell in security from mankind. large number of coots, black ducks and king elders have come up into the slack water above Martins Point bridge and are trying to find means of sustaining life until warmer weather opens up their regular feeding places.
 It will be recalled that few years ago the fats. eycu up through the bridge, were frozen over and nothing but hand feeding for a number of days eaved large numbers of these fine birds from starvation. It may be necessary to reBort to the same treat ment again. for the flats above the bridge are pretty we'll Iced up and only small section of open water and moist ground remains for the hirds-Portland Argus.

SLAYER EvELAND
WAS JUSTIFIED

The Dalles, Or, Nov. 21.-Fred
Eveland was justified in taking the
life of Dave Mannausaw, whom he
shot to deatn in front of his dwelling
in this city on the morning of Octo-
Der 13. said the jury before whom he
was tried in the circuit court here.
After being out all night the jury an
nounced it ha- arrived at a verdict of
acquittal.
Eveland was apparently unmoved.
Throughout the trial he kept his nerve
remarkably and maintained all the
time that he would be cleared since
he felt tha. he was justified in taking
the life of me man he killed, and did
not feel the least remorse. From the
beginning of the trial sympathy has
generally been with him. and public
sentiment has been pretty general
that at most he would not be convict
ed of a greater crime than manslaugh-
ter.
The fact that Mannausaw was a
large. powerful man and Eveland a
mere stripping created sentiment in
favor of the latter. and too, the fact
that Mannausaw was cursing Mrs,
Eveland Just at the time the shooting
began. and that he was acting in de-
fense of his wife he ws acting in de-
fense of his wife, served to cause the
jurors to excuse his act.
Immediately after the verdict Eve
land was released and will probably
go to North Yakima with his parents
