2 THE THEATERS. Byron, at (lie Alcazar, in "Across the Continent." No Change at the Oth*r Theaters— The TiToli's TatiniUi"— Hems. About Eothern. General Mention. After a lengthy absence from our midst Mr. Oliver Byron, the very suecesslul melodramatic actor, made his reappearance at the Alcazar last evening in that very sensational drama, "Across the Continent," which has been previously seen in this city. For those fond of this class of dramatic pabulum "Across the Continent" oilers a very exciting, not to say diverting, evening's amusement— lor It has as much fun— though a cood deal more of It might be more strictly termed horse play, i hat can be jammed Into It. From me continuous applause and laughter the cut itaiuineui was much enjoyed by thelaige audience present. Mr. Oliver Byron, of couiselbe hem. does his woik in true melo dramatic style. The company supporting him Is an exceptionally good one— all local people. Mr. 'James L'arden. Mr. Haiti Davenport, Mr. Leo Cooper, Mr. lieu Cotton, Mr. liner JobDstoue. Mr. Scott Cooper and Mi. Frank VVyuian did well in their respective j.aits. Miss- Euiel Biandeu and Miss Fannie Young and little Mabel Bow man also tendered valuable alii. Mi. Tho.nas C. Leary's lush specialty In the third act met with much favor. The play went very smoothly for a in. -i night reiioiniaiice. "Across tbeContlneul" should do a good week's business. At the Other Theater* There Is nothing new to report. "Sberundoau" tilled the New California to repletion. The ma jority oi those in me auditorium were new faces, and the business on the stag* was, of course, Co them fiesh and Interesting. Tim i-lay has pulled a new lot of people to the theater— so much through tbei persistent i booming or It through the.press as by .the Innate merits of the piece Itself related to friends and neigh bora by those who, early In its dramatic history, had the privilege of enjoying it; a full house of satlsllied auditors Is the best advertiser of a play. The auditors being pleased, n-ve r rest satisfied" till all with whom they come in contact have seen the performance, and all are equally pleased with themselves. There is a rate enjoyment in compaiing notes, not act oss the walnuts and I lie wine, but over a bumble cup of tea. "Suenandoah" has drawn out our aver age population— people who have read the his tory of me war and are desirous of seeing this particular episode of It. The war drama will be continued all this week. "PAUL KATJVAR" At the Bush-street lias not had tbe pull ex pected. Tbe fault lies wan the play itself, In the Hist instance; and, In the second, the people to whom the respective pails are assigned. We have no particular fault to find with II .i worth, thebeio, nor with Mr. Mark Lynch, the villain; they do the best they can. The rest of the company, however, aie merely "leather and I'iuiitila." A good deal of stress Is placed on ibe pictures— the guillotine Iv the early pail of the play; Hie mob lv Ihe Yendeau Phase; but these pall by repetition. Tiiesav ageiy aud blood of the- one and the uuieasouable violence of the other are equally objectionable to an Anglo-Saxon audience. When Mr. Ha worth lias gotten tbroucb frith his *■ J'aul Kauvar" conti. which he ought never to have under taken — let him bid Sleeie Mackaye good-by for evei and a day and go wbeie he belong*, into legitimate acting.

"Two Fair." The management of the Orpbeum offered its patrons an unusually good bill last evening lv tlie shape of a musical comedy entitled " Two Fair. It has many amusing features, and the characters being In the hands of capable people - the performance was rendered doubly enjoyable. Mr. John H. Ferry, Mr. Ed Ferry, Miss *lay ai.i.ei >■ aud Miss Concbita did well In their sev eral roles. There was an excellent audience. "Two Fair" will run all the week. Sotheru'* Coming. Apropos of the late engagement here of Mr. and Mrs. Kendal and the coming of .Mr. B. ii. Kothein next week at the California Theater, there Is a pleasant story which Mr. Warner of theSothern Company relates. Years ago, when Mr. Hotbern was but a small boy. his father, "Dundreary" Sotbern, was a power In tbe Lon don theatrical world and had great influence with J. B. Buckstone, tbe veteran manager, who bad given him bis first opportunity In London. Ihe young actress, Madge Robertson, bad been doing good work in, the provinces, but lou^.g apparently In Tain, for that Mecca ni.B;,gu.\, pioiessionais-a London euow, nen y ' ciitnce brought about a meerlr." »r i"'l V, =„ fen *"'■ '.■' " '3an ordinary attention to the lady's - ■"..■ai of ber aspirations. "Yon shall have a Louoon opening," li» finally said, "and Buck stone (-tja.il give it to you." It was a matter of some time and trouble before Miss Robertson's wish could be effected, but when done the veteran manager stood sponsoi to another London favor ite. A warm friendship sprang up between hottiei ti and his wife, and Madge Uobertson and lier husband, Mr. Keudal. Mr. Kendal was not ill that lime an actor. THE AFTERMATH. •When Manager Daniel Frouraan welcomed Mr. and Mrs. K»ud»l to this country he sug gested their visiting some of the theaters in .New York. "What Is at your own theater?" aiked Mrs. Kendal. "K. U. Sothern In 'The Highest Bidder,'" said Mr. Frohman. "What! Little Eddie Sotherul" exclaimed Mrs. Kendal, "why, 1 have not seen him since he used to beg me to carry him about In my arms. Let us go there by all means." They attended tbe per formance, laughed and applauded heartily, and alter the cuiiaio fell met young Sotbern behind the scenes. After numberless pleasant remarks liad passed, Mr. Sotbern led forth a young actor of bis company, saying "Let me Introduce you to one whom you should remetn -7 './e: as you do me, because ot bis father—ilow laud Buckstone, son of dear old J. B. Buck- Btone." The Kendals, in tbe presence of tbe two young men to whose fathers they owed the be ginning of tlielr London career, were demonstra tive lv their expressions of joy, and ahortly the quartet became reminiscent. After a time, how ever, Mr. Frohman ordered a cessation of "don't you remembers" tbat they might be resumed over a pleasant little supuer at the hotel, which lasted well toward morning, How small the world really Is, after all I General Mention. -; The probabilities are that Mr. Jay Rial will re open the Grand Opera House with a series of new plays and a strong company. Mr. Alfred Bouvier Is still in Oregon, looking after the Interests of tbe Bayman- Bouvier circuit. Ben Teal Is writing a war drama. In which, bowever, war elements are to be made second ary to the main purpose of the play. It Is not likely to be put on the stage before the middle of next season. Charles L. Howard proposes to bring out " shortly a domestic drama called "Little chard Farm" as an offst to I)enman Thompson's "Tua Old Homestead." Den bas been making too - much money with his New England life picturus, and Howard wants to get a taste of the elder. A MOVING MOUNTAIN. Strange riieuonieui.il In the Columbia ltlver. A traveling mountain is found at the Cascades of the Columbia. It is a triple peaked mass of dark brown basalt, six or eight miles in length where it fronts the river, and rises to a height of almost 2000 feet above the water. That it is in motion is the last thought which would be likely to suggest itself to the mind of an) one passing it; yet it is a well-established fact that this entire moun tain is moving slowly but steadily down the river, as if it bad a deliberate purpose some time in the future to dam the Columbia aud form a great lake from the Cascades to The Dalles. The Indian traditions indicate im mense movements of the mountains here abouts, long before white men came to Ore gon, and the early settlers, immigrant* many of them from New England, gave the above - described mountainous ridge the name of "traveling mountain," or "sliding mountain." Iv its forward and downward movement the forests along tlie base of the ridge have become submerged in the river. Large tree-stubs can be seen standing deep in the water un this shore. The railway engi neers and the trackmen find that the line of the railroad which skirts the foot of the mountain is being continually forced out of place. At certain points t ii« road-bed and rails have been pushed eight or ten feet out of line in the course of a few years. Geologists attribute this strange phenom enon to the fact that the basalt, which con stitutes the bulk of the mountain, rests on a substratum of conglomerate, or of soft sandstone, which the deep, swift current of the mighty river Is constantly wearing away; or that this softer subrock is of itself yielding, at great depths, to the enormous weight of the harder material above.—As torlan, May 7th.

Hew York on Wheels -May Day in the Em fire City — A Pointer to Those Who Want to Live Cheaply in Summer. New York Special to TiikMurni.no Call. New York, May c, 1800.— On tbe first day of May "all New York is on wheels." It Is the gen era) aiming day.

This Is in a civilized locality. Only a Dickens could describe the an nual begira of ihe inmates of tbe sliding tene ment-houses on the Last bide. When your land lady asks you point blank if you are going to remain me summer, If not, she wishes "to adver tise your room lor summer boarders, as eveiy body moves the first of May," one begins to lake a peisunal Interest in the geueral movement. lleie's a truth for you, "a pointer"— to speak in common parlance— lf you liave more brains tn.iu inuuey and want to gel soinelblug else for your money llun board.

For Instance, 1 bad a room iv the Mill story ola very nice private boaiding-house in a re spectable locality (not "swell," but lv walking distance ot swelldom), and In July the pi ice of the room, with ice-water and four lung winding flights of stairs Included, was $8 a week.
