AT THE OPERY HOUSES
Being Casual Observance Without
the Use of GRAY Matter

Private Peat at the Orpheum is
an extraordinary war play. taken from
the book of the same name. To those
who have read the book or to those
who haven't, it will please Immensely.
The picture follows the book very
closely, only deviating once in a while
to hold a plot. Private Peat" in
book form was mostly short squibs of
the authors personal experiences in
the great war. An excellent cast and
supreme direction marks the picture
as exceptional. With a couple of new
chorus girls. an addition to the prin-
ciples, Hap Moore's little band of
Merry-Merrys at the Majestic have a
right nice little opera-etty, this first
half of the week. It's the most SEN

PERINE WORKS ROBBED
Another Sunday Night Robbery Re
ported by Police.

One of the windows of the Perine
Plow works, 500 Quincy street, was
broken in Sunday night and altho the
proprietors are unable to say that any
thing is missing. the police are of the
opinion that it was here that the par
ties who burglarized the Felix cloth
ing store and the Eagle clothing store
obtained their tools to pry open the
doors at the two latter places.
The Felix people, after a investiga-
ton, place their loss at approximately
$500.
The sheriff at Alma, Kan, has sent
out notices that the Robertson Cloth
ing company, of that place. was bur-
glarized Saturday night and fifteen
suits of mems clothing, together with
a quantity of neckties, shoes and
suitcases taken. The police here have
as yet obtained no clue to the thieves,

STATE MAY LEG|SLATE
DURING FEDERAL OPEN
SEASON; TIME DEFINED
Shooting Of Ducks, Geese,
Other Migratory Fowl Defi-
nitely Settled; Confusion
Arose Over Conflicting Laws.

In an opinion given by Attorney
General George NJ. Brown to M. A.
Biggs, District Attorney for Harney
County, the shooting season for ducks
geese and other migratory waterfowl
has been definitely settled. Confusion
has existed in the minds of many
shooters on account of difference in
the Federal and State Seasons. The
State cannot legislate within the clos
edseason Of the Federal regulations,
but II can legislate within the open
season. The Federal open season is
three and one-half months but the
State. II it cares to. may close any por-
tion or all Of this Federal open season.
The shooting. season, therefore. which
must be observed by hunters through
out Oregon is as follows:
For Multnomah, clatsop, Columbia
and Tillamook Counties, the open sea-
son begins on october list and closes
December 3ist. In all other counties
of Game District No. 1. which com
prises all that portion Of Oregon lying
West of the summit of the Cascade
Mountains, the season opens on Octo-
ber 18th and closes on January 18th. |
In all counties Of Game District No. 2,
which comprises all that portion OF
Oregon lying Isfst 0g ihe summit OF
the Cascade Mountains. the open sea-
son begins on October LIST and ends on
December 31st
II had been hoped that the Federal I
and State Laws would conform, and !
to this effect were I
made by. the Fish and Game Commits
sion, the rod and gun clubs through
out the state, the Oregon Sportsmen's
Leagie. and many individual hunters
who had given much study to the sea-
sons. but the position was taken by the
Game Committee of the Legislature
hat the Federal regulations were un
and. therefore, would
be imperative. Since the Legisla-
.ure has adjourned, two Federal
,ourts have upheld the Federal .regu-
ations. 1t was the clear intent of the
legislature to give equal hunting sea-
IONS. This would have been accom-
llished had not the Federal law in
ervened. The State law is operative

The fact that the bonds did no,
bring better price is attributed
mainly to the influence of the steel

but it was decided NOT to take chances
on st;lI more unfavorable condition
