NETHERSOLE
AT The GRAND
LAST NIGHT
A GREAT ACTRESS, BUT A PLAY
THAT CAUSES ONE TO LIE
DOWN TO UNPLEASANT NIGHT
MARES RATHER THAN PLEAS
ANT DREAMS.

Manager Farmer, of the Grand
opera house, deserves and has the
thanks of Salem theater-goers for the
exceptionally fine class of plays he
has given them this season. The
Spendthrift, Monday, was good, st.
Denis superb, and Sister Beatrice"
as presented by Nethersole last
night-well, you say it. There was
a good house, caused no doubt by the
desire to see Nethersole, whose repu-
tation as an emotional actress is
worldwide, and deserved. The
Enigma" was good, and Miss Meth
ersole demonstrated her power as
well-in the light of the play that
followed it-as her versatility. The
audience would. no doubt, have ap-
preciated the play more, had they
all understood it, which, judging
from the remarks heard as the audi
ence filed out, many did not; as the
remarks indicated they thought Sis
ter Beatrice was simply crazy, and
imagined she had been bad For this
reason we presume to call attention
to the plot, if such it can be called.
Sister Beatrice was all she claimed
to have been, but the Virgin, out of
supreme pity, when the sister fled
the cloister. assumed the sisters
garb and for % years filled her
place, disappearing from the shrine,
and only comes back to 1t when Be-
atrice comes back, glutted with sin
and overwhelmed with remorse and
dies, her sinfulness unknown to her
sister nuns, who imagined she was
with them all the time.
The portrayal was great, the act
ing fine. but the horse editor re-
marks that. while he was pleased
with seeing Nethersole, and satisfied
with having seen to what distances
the imagination of the play writer
may go into the realms of the uncan-
ny and unpleasant; that he went
home with dark brown taste in his
mouth, that would prevent him
sampling another like it-well, the
"Toymaker' will be along soon. and
we will get a Whit of flowers and
! fragrance, rather than the odor of
musty rooms, vaults, charnel houses
and moral putrescence. However, as
was said in the beginning. the audi
ence was pleased with Nethersole's
acting, and owe Mr.. Farmer a vote
of thanks for making it possible for
them to have seen her. The company
is good, the support being strong,
but it is a Nethersole play. with the
great Olga so strong central lumin-
ary that the others find 1t hard to
shine. We advise Others by all
means to see it-once.

Reply to Gimlet Club.

Ed. Journal: I want a few lines
to reply to the Gimlet Club, which
eulogiZes Mayor Lachmund for his
magnificent courage in vetoing the
ordinance for public ownership of the
water works. cannot see it. AS
your paper stated, he refused to meet
the business men, just as good men
as he is, and property owners and
taxpayers. Was that courage? He
refused the polite invitation of the
Board of Trade and the Business
Mems League ITO give the business
men hearing before sending in his
veto to final vote in the absence Of
Aldermen Low and Elliott, the lat
ter being the father of the ordinance.
Was that courage? When he thought
there might be danger, of passing the
bill over his veto he forced it to a
vote without discussion, in order to
escape the humiliation he has suf-
fered several times, of having bills
passed over his head Was that
courage? We do not know whose
money was bet on his veto, or how it
was spent afterwards, or for what
brand Of liquor. We love a brave
man, but we do not see it in the con-
duct of the mayor. You paper has
sought to do justice to the mayor and
holds up his good points, but courage
is not one of them. A. BOWER.

Not Salts, Oil or
Pills But 'CascaretS'
No Odds How Sick Your Stomach;
How Hard Your Head Aches or
How BiliOus-CaScaret Make
You Feel Great.

Cascarets act as a bowel tonic, not
as an irritant. They are vegetable.
Their action is natural. Their eff
feet is the same as the effect of some
foods. They are gentle; no gripping.
They are pleasant; no dreading..
They are convenient; no waiting.
One old way was castor oil. The
effect was to grease the bowels, and
for single day. Oil never causes
the bowel muscles to act. Other
ways were pills, salts and cathartics.
The effect was the same as pepper in
the nostrils. They flooded the bow
els with fluid. Those fluids were di-
gestive juices. And the waste today
means lack tomorrow.
We knew that the method was
wrong. That the after-effects only
weakened the bowels. But we had
no gentle laxative in the old days.
So we waited as long as we could,
then took a big dose of physic. The
method today is to take one Cascaret
at time-just as soon as you need
it. Then the bo/als are always clean.
They cost only 10 cents per box at
any drug store

HARTMAN N \
TO APPEAR
- T5Q q h8fG
HERE SOON
B tkatii
FERRIS HARTMAN, WITH A FINE
COMPANY FROM THE GRAND
OPERA HOUSE Los ANGELES
TO PRESENT THE "TOYMAK.
Err" HERE.

An item of interest to all theatre
goers in Salem is the forthcoming
appearance of Ferris Hartman and
ture. Mr.. Hartman has not been
seen on tour for over two years, and
now his coming visit will be eagerly
welcomed by everybody. Mr. Hart
man has just completed the most
successful season he has ever enjoyed
at the Grand opera house in Los An
geles, which marks his third contin-
uous season there.
THE Toymaker," that delightful
little journey to the land of make
believe, has been selected by Mr.
Hartman for his present starring tour
as it offers capital opportunities for
the display of his fun-making talents
He has had long and wonderfully
successful experience with this fas-
c'nating tale of the Nurenburg maker
of playthings and its appeal to old
and young alike, makes it a decided
ly unique and interesting offering. 1t
tells the tale of how one, Johannes
Guggenheimer, designer of wonder
full toys, has made doll in the i'm
age of his own daughter, Elsa, which
walks. talks, dances and sings. The
adventures of this wonderful doll
and the many complications in which
Johannes finds himself, serves as the
basis of the comedy of the piece. The
music of THE Toymaker" is thor
oughly delightful and its haunting
melodies remain long after one has
heard them.
The company will be headed as the
principal support by Walter DeLeOn,
the young author and composer of
''The Campus" which has just scored
! the worlds record run of 16 weeks
in Los Angeles. and Miss "Muggins'
Davies, who also appeared in "The
Campus" and scored the greatest hit
of her career. An interesting item in
connection herewith is the fact that
this will be the last season that De
Leon or Miss Davies will be seen in
support. as next season they will both
/ be starred by the Ferris Hartman
Enterprises Company. in "The Cam
pus," which will probably appear
here also. In addition to these, there
will. be Joseph Fogarty, Oliver Len
DIR, Mis- Josie Hart and a chorus that
for beauty and ability, is unexcelled.
Altogether over so people are in the
company and the stage production
| itself will be a marvel If stage craft,
while the costuming will be gorgeous
in the extreme.
No more entertaining perform
anee can be imagined than this fairy
hook realization of childhood S
dreams. and the appearance of The
Toymaker" at the Grand in the near
4 future will be an advent that will be
eagerly awaited. This will probably
mark Mr.. Hartman's last visit here
en- tour for a great number of years,
as the plans already outlined for the
next two or three seasons, will make
it impossible for him to visit us again
Popular prices will prevail.

answer the Statesman interview with
our beloved ex-Mayor Rodgers. We
all know he was the only mayor the
city ever had. | am a Missourian
from the Seventh ward. I belong to
the Improvement League. We raised
fund and tried to get the adoption
of Fairmount Park by the city. The
mayor then promised us his help
We never could get him to one of our
meetings. When we had the big
meeting to boost for it he left town

public ownership of water. the may
or went to Europe to study good
roads. He says; Recently the Sec
retary of the State Board of Health
pronounced the Willamette river in
front OF this city an open sewer" But
what has Mr.. Rodgers done to help
us. For two years, under him, money
was spent on surveys, engineers re-
ports and special elections, all of
which he lodged, so far as l know.
He would never let the ordinance
come to vote, and handed 1t over to
his successor. Next? When will the
citizens quit being faxed by such men
who keep in the limelight in the
newspapers and dodge every moral
responsibility. Give us a show to
expose these double-dealers and
tricky politicians. The Journal can
render no greater service than to
help the people clearly understand
the character of some of the men who
have been trifling with these matters.
At heart the people know they will
get no pure water and no financial or
moral responsibility except by public
ownership.

Ed. Journal: 1t may not be known
to you but there were influences at
work to defeat public ownership of
water at Salem, the same as operated
at Eugene for several years. The
water plant was bought by a private
corporation, some improvements
made and then sluice fund raised to
sell it to the city at a high price. /
have rather admired the efforts of
the Salem water board to buy the
Salem plant before 1t passed through
a brokers' hands. The water company
deserves some credit for wanting to
deal with the city direct, instead of
through a syndicate that would get
fifty or a hundred thousand dollars
out of it. l do not believe in using
the State Railroad board to beat the
water company out of its property.
Messrs. Park and Wallace are good
men, and always fair in their deal
ings with their fellow citizens. They
have not used any influence in this
matter. / have been a stockholder
in the water company, but am not
now. Offers have been made by local
politicians to put through an ordi-
nance at the original price fixed by
the engineers, or 100000, and one
Portland corporation lawyer gave it
away by going to representative of
the water company and offering for
$4,000 to put it through the coun-
Gil AS you intimated in The Jour
nal, these are some of the interests
that have been in the background.

people the same crowd have taken
heart and are at work on a new deal,

SOME FACTS
ABOUT OREGON
WILD ANIMALS

While according to estimates made
by the supervisors of the forest re-
serves in the state to Governor West
there are now 100000 of various
species of deer with in the bound
aries of the reserves, there are killed
by hunters annually IA 900 deer and
10000 more destroyed by predatory
animals SO that they are slightly on
the. decrease. t
Cougars and wolves, says the re-
port, kill large, per cent of the
fawns in the spring and summer and
even many of the old deer which
have been weakened by severe win
ters.
There are estimated to be in all
the reserves but 49S elk. The opin-
ion seems to prevail among the sup
ervisors that they are on the de-
crease.
While not as numerous as in the
past year there are about 1000 ante
lope. They are found on the high
desert and not hunted as much as the
deer and being fleet footed are not so
often killed by predatory animals.
lulC lCpOll DhOMo lhdJ bhClO cll q
grouse, pheasants, quail, sage hens
and prairie chickens in the reserves;
also many water fowls and that the
law is being enforced with relation
to them.
Coyotes Galore.
In the National Forest area of
Oregon there are estimated to be
about $4,000 coyotes, 10000 wild
cats, $500 bear, 5000 cougars and
900 wolves which annually kill
stock valued at 100000 besides be-
ing responsible for the obstruction
of numerous game animals and
birds.
A cougar will destroy during it's
life time on an average of 1900 to
$500 deer, while the gray wolf is
hardly less destructive. In a snow
fall of only two and one-half feet
wolf will easily pull down any deer
within a short time. The cougar kills
cattle and horses, while the coyotes
chief prey is sheep.
Game Fish
1t is estimated that about 1885,
900 fish are taken annually by ap-
! proXimately 5000 fishermen. In sew
eral of the forests where the streams
are accessible to persons of the larg-
er cities and towns the greater per
cent of the fishing is done by these
rather than the settlers. On the Stu
slaw National forest, however, ap-
proximately 100000 silverside, Chi
nook and steelhead salmon are
/ oil onn,to11ty h. nc,
and cold storage. Oyster beds are on
the Alsea and Coos Bays. On this for
est about rs per cent of the hunters
and fishers are settlers within or
near the forest.
