It is the little petty, trifles that nagging, ugly are fill the day's work, which 30 hard to dignify and bear heroically. The hero that leads an army to victory may seem anything else but a great man to his valet. The woman that 1s swinging a great reform may find it exceedingly hard not to tyrannize over the servants her household. It was fidelity to justhe tice and sweetness and equanimity of face of small unlovely details humble life that stamped the character of man Jesus for all time with the stamp of the Christ. The great test of character comes while we sit in the squeaky old chairs In front of our ugly old roll -top desks, or while we do the family washing with as great force as it does out on the battleflelds, where the fight for nation's freedom and glory is going on.

It is lots easier to die and get out of an environment in many cases than it is to live in it and force it to yield to us our great chance to prove our mastery, our kinship with the compassionate Christ. The circumstance of a struggle does not in the least matter: it is the strength of the struggle, and the ultimate victory or defeat of the white warrior within each of us who stands to do battle for us if we will but let him, that counts. This applies with pecullar force to the work of women. There small work and large work to be done. The campaign against vivisection has in it all the potential compassion and beauty and devotion that the war against white slavery has.

Indeed, sometimes I think that the hand that is lifted in defense of God's voiceless, helpless, trusting, worshiptul little creatures has in it even more merit than the battle for those who are at least endowed with the intelligence of their assailants, and the exercise of free will. But it is all in the cause of those who suffer, and that is the cause that will prevail in all the struggles of this wonderful time. Pitiful cries have reached ears that hear. The edge of the world is rose-gold. Day dawns, even while battles rage.

Badger Club Address. In her address before the Badger Club a few days ago, Mrs. Rosamond Wright struck at the heart at the matter of vivisection. She showed herself to be well-informed and proved that our little brothers of the voiceless world truly have a good friend in her. She said during her address: "Women of the Badger Club, you are Interested in prison reform.

work, in men and women, who, because hereditary environment and the dynamio force of social and economio conditions are behind prison bats. I am interested in the other helpless, voiceless creatures of the world, the lesser animals who are held as life prisoners in those charnel houses of exquisite torture, so terrible that the human mind unaccustomed to pitiless cruelty can not conceive them adequately. In December of. last year in Washington there assembled from all the great countries of the world of the International Anti- Vivisection and Animal Protective. Congress.

Thirty of the most distinguished and venerable bishops of of this country, ten United States Senators, ten Governors of States, geniuses from the world of art and letters, distinguished medical men, together with a selection of great humanitarians from the common citizens made it one of the 'notable reform congresses of the world. It shows conclusively that a deep undercurrent of feeling is stirring the souls of men and women against this unparalleled cruelty, vivisection. There a will be presented before the Legislature of this State a bill for the "open door." modeled after famous Italian law which gives the right of entry to medical laboratories specially-appointed humane agents of the State. No house upon whose lintel the accusation of cruelty rests can bar its doors to the sunlight." Ebell Hears Col. McClure.

Col. S. S. McClure, editor and owner of McClure's magazine, was the speaker of the day at Ebell Club Monday. Col.

McClure addressed body of young women at a graduation exercise, long, long ago. It was his maiden speech. He started out to talk of the problems confronting young ladles leaving school and entering life, and what he really did was to talk about himself and his work in founding his magazine. The principalsbless their maidenly proper heartsfrowned and looked uncomfortable, but the young ladies were immensely delighted with the colonel's talk, even if it were interspersed with mouth'fuls of peanuts, which he chewed as he talked. But he made a fine talk and the girls never forgot it.

He made a fine talk yesterday. Ebell will never forget It. Col. McClure shows some considerable advancement in the art of public speaking since the day he made his maiden speech at the young ladies academy. He is one of the most picturesque figures in American journalism, and would be a strong and powerful man In any epoch.

Emphasizing the failure of American municipal government he said: "It is not possible for good government to obtain under the initiative, referendum and recall.

Empress, It's the open season for tabloid musical comedy, and they grow one over at the Empress this week that's regular Morpheus, meaning, of course, Kitty Francis and company in "Mrs. O'Malley's Reception." Francis 1s a Maggie Cline sort of person, with great comedy methods in her character part of Mrs.

O'Malley. The girls of her company inhabit dresses that are dreams of beauty, and their singing and dancing are ing. Billy Montrose and Blossom Sardell do a neat dancing and patter turn, with bicycle trimmings. Billy Montrose's dancing, in which he does double somersault, and dances on his hands, fetches the house. Boys," are a Mutt-and-Jeff combinaCaits a Brothers, "The Tailor-Made tion, whose feet are affinities in all their clever clogging.

They have some funny comedy also. Jessie Morris and Jack Beasley are very easy to look at, especially Jessie Morris in her cherry and oriental garb, and their comedy methods are original and pleasing in their skit "The Manicure Shop." Wilson Wilson, colored, sing and dance and kid like old plantation days. The moving pictures are good, as usual. Pantages. Sibber and North, billed as "A Bashful Man and a Maid," are crowned by the Pantages audiences this week as head of the show.

They are good lookers and good singers, also good dancers, being, in fact, "altogether to the good." With one sad exception every number on the bill is tip-top. That exception is "Destiny," a very mellow drama, played by William Schilling, Bertram Grassby and Bessie Folsom. The twelve Portland youngsters, however, more than make up. They appear under the direction of Harold A. Webber in a varied repertoire of mandolin, violin and banjo selections.

Lyons and Cullom, a team of versatile favorites, seen here many times in the past in song, dance and imitations, are renewing old acquaintance. "Slivers" Oakley, the baseball clown, has a pantomimic presentation of a baseball game that will make the fans happy. The Exposition Jubilee Four, colored quartette, are strong in solo, glee and harmony. Republic. "The Naked Truth," George Kleine's motion picture, featuring Lyda Borelli, is the feature at the Republic this week.

The play 1s a film version of the daring and sensational French novel, "La Femme Nue," by Henry Bataille, the story centering about the artist colony in Paris, where many Bohemian adventake place and where Lolette, an artist's model, played by Mile. Borelli, is the darling of artistic Paris. The piece is wonderfully staged and acted. The vaudeville acts surrounding the picture are pleasing. Hippodrome.

Mile. Fanny opens the Hippodrome show in a clever -wire act, which gets a lot of applause. Ed, the trampiest tramp on earth, gets a lot of laughs. But the real surprise the bill is the farewell sketch of Charlie Reilly and company called "The Good Shepherd of County Mayo," which gives Victory Bateman and Mr. Reilly a chance for some good dramatic work.

Grace McGinn and company present "Wanted- Man' in a delightful way, and the Tivoll Trio please in an excellent musical act. Henderson and North have a clever line of song and nonsense, and Copeland and Davis do an amusing comedy turn. Mozart. "The Greyhound," at the Mozart, tells a story that is intensely interesting from the very beginning. Romance and revenge, crime and comedy, are so deftly mingled in this Paul Armstrong drama that the picture maintains a pleasing hold on the spec- (Continued on Seventh tator and proves irresistibly entertaining.

The story depicts the life of a gambler and his wife, who, falling in her efforts to reform him, escapes from evil surroundings and eventually finds contentment and happiness. "The Greyhound" is a strong offering and pleases mightily. Clune's Auditorium. "Salomy Jane," a film version of Bret Harte's famous story, with Bentriz Nichelena in the name part, is the delightful offering at Clune's Auditorium this week. Miss Nichelena plays Bret Harte's illusive heroine most fascinatingly.

Dropped into the social life of Hangtown, like a red rose on a slag pile, Salomy rides with adolescent indifference and Carmenesque impudence through the affections of Col. Starbottle, Yuba Bill, Jack Marbury and Rufe Waters. It's a great film of the old California days. have seen. Miller's.

Clune's Broadway, "Slight Variations," a ripping comedy, is presented at Clune's Broadway this week and is on a par with "Thanks for the Lobster." Also there is "C.D.," a startling Civil War drama of the "Blue Flame" series, in which Stella Razeto and Guy Oliver are featured. The last of the week will be Selig days, in compliment to Col. W. N. Selig, who will be present during the first performance.

All the greatest of the Selig stars, including Kathlyn Williams, Charles Clary, Wheeler Oakman, Frank Clark, Tom Mix, Bessie Eyton and others, will be seen. Tally's Broadway. Jack Barrymore, in "The Man from Mexico," is making the hit of his fair young life at Tally's this week. His droll mannerisms belong only to himself, and they are transferred to the screen without loss of comedy value. "The Man from Mexico" is without doubt the funniest screen comedy we Dunn in her first photoplay, "Mother," is delightful.

The play is charming, running the gauntlet of emotions from pathos to comedy, and has been produced in a wonderful manner by William A. Brady. This is the feature attraction this week at Miller's Theater, and the management declares it to' be the best picture shown there in a long while. The latest Hearst-Selig weekly news pictorial is as interesting as usual. Quinn's Superba.

The paramount pictures at Quinn's Superba are proving a big drawing card. The first was shown vesterday, being Jesse Lasky's "Ready Money," a film play In five parts. The cast contains the names of wellknown actors, such as Edward Abeles, Bessie Barriscale and Theodore Roberts, supported by a strong company. As a stage drama, "Ready Money" had a phenomenal run, and the picture version is delightful. Quinn's Garrick.

Lottie Pickford, sister of Mary, and an emotional actress of power, is featured in a big film story of the underworld, "The House of Bondage," this week at the Garrick. It is a story of perils and temptations of a young girl facing the whirl of great city alone. It is excellently well staged and well played. The 700 chorus is still AS big feature as ever. The Woodley.

Vivian Martin, well-known stage star, is appearing this. week at Woodley's Theater in the celebrated Shubert feature, "The Wishing It is a pretty, Idyllio love story of old England, and sends the patron from the theater with a smile on his face, belleving the world is bigger and brighter than he had supposed. This was the play by Owen Davies that Marguerite Clark, herself a picture star, used in making her entrance into the legitimate theater, and is no less of a success on the screen.
