Old Homestead
a Good Play But
Seen Too Often

That "The Old Homestead will nev-
er grow old was demonstrated last
night at the opera house when this
charming old play was acceptably pre-
sented by direction Of Mr. Frank
Thompson.
The play is a simple one, portraying
as It does simple country life of
Joshua Whitcomb, of Swanzey New
Hampshire, in which many comical
and ridiculous, yet pathetic situations
are presented. William Lawrence, as
Joshua Whitcomb, was exceedingly
good as were most of the other char
acters, and while some Of the scenes
were a little far-fetched they were
none the less enjoyable.
The first act showed the home Of
Uncle Joshua in which the scenes
depicted took place in the dooryard,
the main part of which was a visit to
the rural home of some children of
former friend and neighbor to Joshua,
The second act showed the children
returning to the New York home Of
Henry Hopkins, bringing Uncle Josh
with them. The comical part begins
here in which many humorous scenes
are depicted by Uncle Josh when he
sees the many strange things of city
life Uncle Josh makes the trip pri-
marily to find his son who has lived in
the city about a year and from whom
the father has not heard for over four
months.
1t is certainly a pathetic scene in
the third act when the despondent
father accidentally runs across his
wayward son on the streets of the
great city beastly drunk. The drunk.
en- son recognizes his father and falls
in drunken fit into his fathers arms
The fourth act shows a number o
scenes Of country life around the ole
homestead which are comical in tn,
extreme.
The Old Oaken Bucket and Asleel
in the Deep, as sung by the "OlC
Homestead" double quartet brough
much applause. While the audienc,
was small, the applause was good anC
everybody went away thoroughly sat
isfled with the evenings entertain
ment.

JURY FINDS MRS. ORTIZ
GUILTY OF LARCENY

At circuit court yesterday afternoon
the case of the State Of Oregon VS..
Mrs. Ora Orth for larceny from the
person was on trial This case grew
out of a joy ride taken last September,
in which young ed. Stringer, Of near
Independence, was relieved of about
so in money. It was brought out in
the testimony that young Stringer
came to Salem from Independence,
and in the evening, under the pretext
of going after a suitcase, Frank Buff
fin, Mrs. Orth and a chauffeur made
trip by automobile to the Horst hop
yard on the river above Eola Several
bottles Of beer were consumed on the
trip, and, according to part Of the tes-
timony, a pint bottle Of whiskey was
partly consumed by the joy riders.
Soon after drinking the whiskey young
Stringer became unconscious, and re-
mained so until the next morning,
when he awoke in a rooming house on
Commercial street. He at once made
search for his purse, which, when he
found It, was discovered to be empty
When he realized that he had been
fleeced, he made complaint to the
sheriff's office, and the arrest Of Frank
Buffln and Mrs. Orth followed few
days later in Portland, the arrest hav-
ing been made by some clever detec-
tive work by william Esch, deputy
sheriff
At noon today, after about three
hours dellberation, the jury brought
ID a verdict Of guilty as charged in
the Indictment The amount Of the
theft, according to the opinion Of the
Jury, was $61.

TRIAL OF BECKER ENDED.
Continued from Page ~

Sullivan rehashed most of the tes-
timony given at his former examina-
tion. He declared that "Bridgie"
Webber had said to him:
81 know Becker is innocent but
Rose Is running this. He would plant
a frame-up on either Mayor Gaynor or
Commissioner Waldo, If he had to-"
Continuing his direct testimony,
Sullivan said:
"Rose told me that District Attorney
Whitman had stipulated that he would
get them out OF trouble IL they framed
up deal on Becker I said to Rose,
so you frame-up on people, do you?
Why, If had to stay another month

"T am the happiest man in the

testified, "and my wife is the happi-
est woman Rosenthal wanted to kill
me, but do not have to be afraid
now
Crosse, Vallon and Webber asked me
to say that saw the murder, and said
that would be in bad If didn't. They
said they had gotten Becker into It.
They admitted they had framed him,
but said they knew enough to get out
Of It themselves"

STATE GETS ITS LAND
IN A COMPACT BODY

The state board has been successful
in arranging a deal with the govern
pent for the exchange of $4,000 acres
Of state school lands scattered about
through the state for like amount Of
timber land located in the North San
tam region. The Santiam tract is
we'll timbered and will be used for
the maintenance Of a school Of fores-
try to be operated in conjunction with
the Oregon Agricultural college at
Corvallis.
AT meeting of the board this morn
ing it was decided to recommend to
the legislature plan which provides
at all that portion of the big timber
tract containing ripe timber shall be
logged off each year and half the pro
ceeds Of the sale of the timber so to-
ward the maintenance Of the forestry
school while the other half Is put into
the irreducible school fund Should
the legislature not see fit to proceed in
accordance with this plan, an appro-
priation will probably be made by that
body for the maintenance Of the school
which will leave the entire proceeds
of the sale of the timber to be placed
into the school fund
The timber tract will'be continually
leforested if the plans Of the board
work out, making the income from the
! tract perpetual.

DR.. Wilson
Anglers the
Arid Ones

A wave Of excited protest swept over
the White Temple auditorium at Port
land late yesterday, just after adjourn
ment, when It was announced from the
platform that the liquor interests were
circulating thousands Of copies Of
pamphlet Of which Rev, Clarence True
Wilson, eX-pastor Of Grace Methodist
Episcopal church, is the author, de-
claring against woman's suffrage, be.
cause, the pamphlet alleges, It has
been hindrance to the cause Of tenn
perance wherever adopted.
Dr. Wilson cites the case OF the
elections in southern California since
the adoption of suffrage as an argu-
ment and gives a number of reasons
why he believes that with the ballot in
the hands of women prohibition is
farther off than ever.
"As an 0regonian," run the words Of
DR., Wilson's pamphlet, 81 oppose clas-
styling our glorious state with the
freak states Of the Union, when we
have a higher plane of civilization
than any Of the four states that have
had womens votes, and Just as Cali
iornla and Washington have blindly
fallen into fatal mistake. have con-
versed with both men and women from
California and have found no one not
in doubt about the wisdom of what
they have DONE
DR.. Wilson is now general secretary
Of the National Methodist Episcopal
Temperance Society, working in the
middle west, and this fact especially
rolled those Of that denomination who
heard Of his pamphlet California wo-
men protested vigorously, saying that
the liquor people, getting busy imme-
diately they had gained suffrage, and
before they had time to organize, had
deliberately set out to accomplish a
demonstration Of the uselessness of
suffrage to the cause of prohibition.
A Utah delegate arose and excitedly
told how all suffragettes were prohibit
tlonists in her state, and from many
throats came the second to a motion
to appoint a committee to draft resolu.
items of protest against DR., Wilson'S
pamphlet.
The resolution will be sent by nigh
letter to Bishop Shepherd of the Meth
odist Episcopal church, and is expect
ed to have the effect of further pre-
venting DR., Wilson from striking a
the cause of suffrage, and, as the pro
testants believe, at the cause of pro
hibition, which the ex-Portland paste
is supposed to be advancing.

Selling Many Cups.
There has been general regard in
this section this week for the new state
law prohibiting the use of common
drinking cups and Of the other new
law abolishing the use of roller tow
els In hotels and public places. The
requirements Of the acts are being
gracefully net wherever they apply.
Incidentally, the adjustment of the
common drinking cup has created an
increased demand for the individual
cups, both in collapsible and paper
types. Next summer. of course, the
public drinking font on Main street.
opposite the Dexter building, where
common drinking cup has found
constant use for seasons past, will be
of little service unless someone's
thoughtfulness and generosity provides
it with bubbler attachment, and this
would be appreciated, as the font is
much used.
