Pastime-Thursday. Friday.

A picture story that held the screen
for a week at the Star theater, Port
land, has been secured by the man
agement of this theater for Thursday
and Friday. 1t is a two-part adap-
ton from "a Captured Santa Claus"
and is entitled within the Enemy's
Lines" Colonel Stafford, C. S. A., de-
termines to spend Christmas at home,
despite the fact that his house is sur
rounded by Union encampment. He
DISCUSSES himself as a pedler, but is
recognized by Colonel DENLY, u. S. A.
Though he knows and respects Staf-
ford, it is Denby's duty to arrest him.
He marches a file of men to the
house and demands that Stafford come
forth. Stafford's son, knowing that
his father will be shot as a spy if
captured in civilian clothes, makes
his way to a Yankee camp and gets
uniform from a Confederate pris-
oner, returning in time to save his
fathers life. When Stafford appears
IN full dress uniform, DENLY is so re-
lieved at the happy turn of affairs
that he accepts his surrender and ar
invitation to Christmas dinner. Au-
gustus Phillips and May Abbey have
the leads.

Local Playhouses
What the Press Agent Has to
Say of Present and Coming
Attractions.
The Orpheum

For Tuesdays change. "A Son OF
His Father" Lubin, in two parts.
This is very powerful melodramatic
story of the gamblers life. The taint
of the fathers profession develops In
the son and almost wrecks the lives
of both. But manhood asserts itself,
and an unworthy career is changed
to honest endeavor which reunites a
family and eventuates in domestic
happiness. This beautifully con-
structed photoplay has splendid cast
with many of the Lubin favorites.
The Misadventures of Mighty
Monarch. Vitagraph, with Lillian
Walker. Wallie Van, John Bunny and
Flora Finch playing the leading roles,
any comedy is success. When their
delightfulness is supplemented by a
very clever story which in turn is
supplemented by remarkably fine
scenery, such as the coronation OF
John Bunny as king and Lillian Walk
er as queen at Coney Island for the
Mardi Gras celebration, this comedy
Is not merely a success it is a Won
der. The audience will be convulsed
all the way through.

STUDENT BODY FINANCES
AT L. OF o. DISAPPOINT

EUGENE, Ore, Jan. 14.-With foot
hall returning much less than antici
pated, and an apparent deficit OF
some $500 or $500 staring the glee
club in the face, student body finances
do not look rosy as they did the first
of the year, when it was expected
that virtually all of the 1888 in OBJ
legations would be eliminated. Foot
ball receipts in 1913 totaled $45OO. of
which $1,000 is clear. Student body
tickets brought in s5026, from which
fund virtually all of the spring ath-
/, tics must be paid. Baseball, track
and tennis seldom more than pay ex-
penses The glee club season is not
finished yet and the trips which the
club viii take to Portland, Albany and
Corvallis. are expecced to reduce the
present $500 deficit.

GARDNER WARNS U. s.

WASHINGTON, Oct. 15.-Representative A. P. Gardner of the Fourth district of Massachusetts, who has recently returned from the Austrian zone intro duced this afternoon in the house resolution proposing that commission of three members of the senate and three members of the house be appointed by the president to make full investigation into the preparedness of the United States for war.
 We have undertaken to enforce the Monroe Doc urine" said Gardner yet we are mprepared for war"
 These words were the keynote of his speech and his purpose He asserted that during his stay in Europe he was given opportunity to go deeply into the cause of and as result of his study he warned the house that matter which side wins in Europe the victorious nations will be headstrong and hgh-handed Gardner seemed to be firm in the belief that the allies if given uncheck ed power would turn their attention to this continent At the same time he appeared to be absolutely confident that Germany would make StrenOuS effort to get a fOOthold in South America.
