STRIKING RESEMBLANCE
Is THEME OF NEW PLAY
Mrs Leslie Carter to Appear at Sa-
lem In Stirring Production by
Rupert Hughes.

The friends of Mrs. Leslie Garter
will gather undoubtedly in large
numbers at the Grand Theater, Sa-
lem, March 6, to witness this gifted
actress and greet her with cordiality
in her new play revealed for the first
time last season and entitled Tive
Women"
Two Women" is by the infatigi-
BILE Rupert Hughes, who derived his
inspiration for the work through an
Italian playwright. Mr.. Hughes,
from all accounts, has amplified the
original text to suit the exacting pub
lie of his country. It's theme is the
striking physical resemblance be-
tween two women, different in every
trait of character. One, a seamstress
dies in the first act, from pneumonia.
The other woman is a Parisienne bal
let dancer The meeting between the
husband of the deceased wife and the
ballet dancer, is brought about by an
intimate friend, who, in a letter to
the husband, casually mentioned the
resemblance of woman he had seen
in Paris with his friends wife
AS the husband is painting a por-
trait of his wife from memory, he
sees the opportunity of having this
| likeness of his wifes sit for the lat
ters portrait. He meets the woman
and she consents to the sittings. Love
springs up between the two, sanctify-
ing the woman completely. The wo-
man naturally reforms and the play
ends, as the two are about to be mar
ried.
This is the mere thread of the mar
ratlve. Mr. Hughes, it is said, has
made his drama as moving and pic
turesque as any author could. who
attempted to write a play for Mrs.
Carter because she is a whole school
of dramatists in herself. Mr.. Hughes |
has supplied some sprightly lines to
the text of his play, which has inter-
ested audiences where ever it has
been played.
The scenic investiture is as COM 4
plete as any production in which /
Mrs. Carter has been seen, including I
that mammouth production. "Du
Barry The scene at the Bal Tab
arin in Paris. is a picture of life in
all its gaiety as presented at one of
the most celebrated after-theatre
places in the French metropolis. In
this scene there is much to hold the
attention of an audience. Mrs. Car
ter's big acting scene comes in the
fourth act and here she is said to
arouse her audiences to the very point
OF great enthusiasm. Mrs. Carter

company. She is under the manage

managers on the Pacific coast. and he
has given her as fine a production
and as satisfactory a company rs

Latest news from Washington indi-
Gates that President Taft will take
action regarding the proposal for the
relief of the Siletz homesteaders and
that patents will issue at once. ex-
cept in cases where the land depart
ment has a contest with the appli-
cant. This outcome has been made
possible by the personal activity of
Ralph f. Williams, of Dallas. nation
al committeeman of Oregon, who has
had several conferences with Presi-
dent Taft on the subject. The issu-
ance of these patents will bring to an
end a long-drawn out series of de-
lays which has worked great hard
ship upon many bona fide settlers
and homesteaders. who have been de-
prived of their lands by reason of
government red tape, and the unfa-
vorahle attitude of land officials head
ed by Pinchot, and other sentiment
talists, but the knowledge that the
delay is over and the mixup in fair
way for immediate settlement, will
be hailed with delight.

NO KNOCK ON OREGON.

Editor Observer: - The lady
from Hawley, Mimi, whose letter,
with editorial comments, was pub
lished in your paper Tuesday
wishes to state that was a part of
a personal letter written during a
bad spell of homesickness to a
friend in Dakota, with no thought
nor wish, of getting into print. A
newspaper man happened to see it
and appropriated it. She does not
want to be understood as knock
ing Dallas, nor Polk county, nor
Oregon. The climate here is so
much superior to that of the Mid
die West that no one in his senses
would say anything against Oregon
But, if you have ever been truly
homesick, you know nothing looks
right Please give this explanation
space in your paper as a matter of
fairness.
The above is printed, as the writer
intimates "as a matter of fairness
and because we have every consider
alton for the sufferer from homesick-
ness. AS the writer well says moth
stances, and were one so afflicted
privileged to live in the midst of
sarden of Eden, the longing for the
Id home would still be uppermost
ven though it consisted simply of a
cd hut on a wind swept plain.
The Observer is pleased to know
hat the recent arrivals are so ap-
reciative of Oregon's climate But,
they came to this state last fall, or

ere, when the skies are smiling and
he balmy breezes, cooled by the Pa
fic's open reaches, sweep eastward
caring the breath of the pines on
leir pinions bringing the bloom of
ealth to the cheek and a sparkle to |

rain undulate in ever widening rip |

rail the heart, then, will they know

icy have cast their lot in this state
Homesickness has been RESPONSE

ing that human beings have endur-
and those afflicted with it are en-
led to the sympathy of those more
rtunate. The Observer earnestly

ercome her attack and see Oregon
rough less prejudiced eyes. And

permit its beauties to impress
upon her.

PRICE OF BEEF is
SOARING IN NEW YORK

NEW YORK, May May days ar.
rival brought with it today advances
in the prices Of beef, potatoes, Ice and
kerosene. The retail prices Of beef
show an advance OF from four to ~
cents a pound.
Potatoes are at a record price, the
reason being short crops. But for
the importation of a low grade OF
English potatoes, dealers say that
New York would be experiencing a
spud famine at the present time. The
Standard Oil Co. has raised the price
of oil one cent gallon. This is one
cent more than was paid when the

cision ordering the dissolution of the
company.
The slight increase in the price OF
ice came when all were expecting a
reduction as the Ice crop was heavy.

asked for an assignment OF the prop

CROUL IS PLEASED OVER

loon, No. 134 Clinton-st.; the Annex,
No. 6 Clinton-st.; the Lincoln Inn,

Objectionable by the police.
The closing of these saloons can
rot help but prove an uplift TO moral
ity I'm the city," said the commissions
er TO The Times. I'VE are glad they
we're put out OF business, for II will
serve as a deterrent to others that
may be inclined to violate the law.
The fact that the aldermen are not GO
ing TO tolerate undesirables, is going
TO bring about better order in regard
TO the operation Of saloons. The sa-
lconkeepers are being taught that a
saloon license Is worth something
nowadays, and they are going to be
more careful In future.
"But | want to tell you that the
liquor problem Is hard to solve. II Is
a difficult matter to determine just
what places ought TO be closed. OF
course, mean after the real vicious
ones are eliminated. People have a
wide difference Of opinion as to Just
what constitutes an Objectionable sa-
loon. I have really some sympathy for
the man who runs an orderly place
along the river front. for he has a
rough element to deal with. He has
a much harder time regulating his
place than the proprietor OF the
Pontchartrain or some other big down.
town bar. The mere fact that men are
noisy in q saloon is no sign that II Is
q disorderly place. However, we are
going to keep right on trying to keep
the saloons OF the city within legal
bounds, and anyone who becomes OBJ
joctionable will find himself In the
same predicament as the proprietors
OF the saloons which have just been
