GENUINE TREAT AT
 MACDOWELL RECITAL

The Nashua, N. H., Telegraph has the following comment of Mrs. Ed ward Mcdowell, who appears in New Britain Wednesday evening at the Y. w. c. A. hall on Hungerford Court:
 Interesting as was the story of the artist colony, so near Nashua, the greatest treat for the audience was the work at the piano of Mrs. Mac Dowell herself. After the lights were turned up the audience was reluctant to permit her to retire from the in strument She played The Eagle, The Scotch Poem,' TO a Water Lily and Will O. the Wisp' and then, by special request from the audience, Tn g. Haunted House. The Shadow Dance 'Brer Rabbit and others.
 "Her playing was in itself revela- tion and showed her personality. A small. frail woman, she played with the virility of a strong man, with the poetry of genius, and the skill that comes only after years of faithful, un- tiring devotion. and unswerving de- termination"

EDMUND BREEZE
 IN POWERFUL DRAMA

'The Song of Wage Slave" in which Edmund Breese, the eminent dramatic star has created the stellar role, will be- shown at Fox's tomor- row and Thursday. The story of this five part photo drama, taken from the poem of same name by Robert w. Service, author of The Spell of the Yukon" and other verses, is distinct innovation in treatment and theme The story deals with the al- most superhuman love of strong man for the woman of his choice, and the supreme sacrifice which this love ultimately entails. The char acter of Ned Lane is a part pecu- liarly suited to the distinctive dra- matic gifts of MT. Breese who is sup ported by a superb cast.

'EVERYWOMAN" AFTER
 16TH CENTURY PLAYS

Conceived by genius, the life work of a man who died in the moment when success for which he had toiled nearly twenty years was about to be his, the dramatic spectacle, Every woman," possesses a most unusual in- terest for the playgoer as we'll as the individual who is seldom seen in playhouse. AS a study it links the present day drama to the play when it was in it's infancy, when it was little more than a tract and the stage the medium through which the religion ists of three centuries ago promul- gated their dogmas. Henry w. Saw ages production of the morality play which is presented upon an opulent scale that dwarfs even the largest modern productions, will be dls- closed at the Lyceum on Friday eve- ming, Oct. 29th
 Fashioned after the morality play of the sixteenth century, it retains but little more than the form of the early drama. Characters are for good or evil and each one is properly liabled. There is no mysticism and no doubt as to the intent of each. The good are painted in attractive col ors and the evil do not for an in- SIoAI ucCSlNS the duQlIOTS IueTe IS a definite story running through 'EVerywoman." It is the quest of a young woman for love. She is beau- tiful she is generously endowed by nature, and she is happy until in an unfortunate hour she looks into her mirror and sees there instead of her reflection the figure of flat tery who tells her that she is beauti- full and that there is out beyond in the world a mate longing to em- brace her and make her his own. The home of this affinity is Love. She is filled With longing to claim him and though warned by Nobody and Truth she sets forth upon her pilgrimage in search of olive. This is the play. In panoramic form there is unrolled the wanderings of this fair maid and the adventures which befall her. She seeks Love in strange places nd re- markable things happen. The interest is sustained and absorbing. One hun dred and fifty people are employed in various capacities in the produc- ton.

Children A nd Styles

look herself over in one of those dinky l,ttle mirrors. and go through all the rest of the motions. I could hardly help laughing at her-why. the voungster wasn't a bit too old for doll. and there she was, giving her self the airs and graces of woman of forty. When do girls become young lsdies nowadays? When they get intp- grammar school?'
 I can imagine some reader asking what there is wrong about girl or ten or twelve discussing styles, or using a vanity box? Nothing wrong except as all unnatural things are wrong.
 An ardent desire to look we'll, a painstaking attention to her personal sppearance is a woman's natural pre- rogative, but not a child's. And at ten or eleven or even twelve a girl should be a child and not a miniature woman
 When Vanity Gets an Early Start
 The vanity that gets such an early start as that is apt to become an overweening one.
 For a girl of that age to want to wear dainty clothes and look as pretty as she can, is natural enough but for her to be so interested in the subject of personal appearance that she studies styles and carrieis, a vanity box, is absurd.
 Any mother who has her daughter S hest interests at heart will try toi keen her young and unself-conscious as long as possible.

S|LETZ T|DELANDS
BELONG TO STATE
SAYS Mr.. BROWN
Not Included In States Grant
To c. & {. Declares
Attorney General

As result Of an investigation, made
upon the suggestion and representa-
ionst Of former Governor Oswald West,
Attorney General Brown announces
that all the tide lands and accretions
existing on the Siletz bay, in Southern
Tillamook county, are not situated in
what was formerly known as Benton
county, and, consequently were NOT in
cluded in the state tide land grant
TO the Corvallis Eastern railroad Of
1874, hence they are the property Of
the state There are several thousand
acres Of tide lands on the Siletz bay
which have heretofore been considered
a part Of the c. & E. land grant and
steps win doubtless be taken immedi-
ately to clear the state S title to some
which viii amount, in value to several
thousands of dollars benefit TO the
state school fund.
In 1874 the state legislature granted
TO the Corvallis & Eastern railroad all
of the tide lands existing along the
coast line of what was then Benton
county, from which Lincoln county has
since been taken, as condition prece-
dent to the construction of the railroad
TO the coast About five years ago the
state brought suit for the forfeiture of
this tideland grant on the ground of
failure 10 live up to the conditions but
this suit failed and the c. &. f. still
holds undisputed title to the tidelands
of Alsea and Yaquina bays Until form.
er Governor West made an inv2stiga.
ton and found out differently it was
generally supposed a nd conceded that
siletz bay tidelands was also included
in this grant but, according TO Attor-
ney General Browns findings Siletz
bay was not within the boundaries of
the original Benton county, but in Til.
lamook county.
