The cars yesterday on the Mount Scot.t branch of the O. W. P. were overcrowded all day. At nearly every trip about one half of the passengers were compelled to T.emaln standing, packed in the aisles. More than 100 were registered on some of the trips in cars that can seat com fortably only about 50 or 00 passengers. It was demonstrated that double the number of cars now operated on Sunday could no more than hanutc the passengers with safety and comfort. It was noticed yesterday that on most of the trips the front and r.ear platforms were pq crowd ed that the moconnea at the. front end were hampered for room. Last year thero was complaint about the overcrowding of these cars on this branch, but little re lief was afforded, and now. with tho opening of the summer travel, there Is n largely increased travel with no addi tional cars to take care of It. The peo ple along the Mount Scott line are in hopes that the new owners of the O. W. P. will provide reasonaoly comfort ble transportation facilities for this sec tion. There arc about 8,000 people tribu tary to this single-track line, and It Is considered one of the best-paying branches of the whole system. To Assist Mrb. Mat McErvin. The friends of Mrs. May McErvin, tho blind widow who lost all her possessions In the fire at the east end of Morrison bridge several months ago, are endeavoring to raise sufficient money to enable her to re open a small rooming-house. Mrs. Mc Ervin was severely Injured In the fire, but has recovered so that she enn get about. It is announced that about 5100 more Is needed to enable this heroic wom an to become independent. Falls Into Clackamas Riveii. Fred Gllstrap, of Estacada, a few days ago dropped from a precipice overhanging the Clackamas River Into the water. The accident happened at Saddle Rock, where he had been picking flowers. Leaning too far out, he lost his balance and plunged downward Into the river. The water was cold, but Gllstrap managed to swim out. although he was carried down stream some distances and was chilled when he reached the shore. Coxplstikg St. Johns Sawmill. The new sawmill on the waterfront at St Johns, which takes the place of the two small mlfe which wero burned last year, is nearing completion. It will be able to cut 100.000 feet of lumber every day. which is about double what was contemplated In the first place. W. c. Francis, D. Brecht and some other well-known saw mill men are Interested In this enterprise. Machinery is arriving and more is ex pected. Funeral of It. B. Jones. The funeral of R. B.

It ba bees hoped and expected that the district would secure that amount of funds from the James Johns estate, but that, is too remote to be considered. The qeestlon of building an addition or erecting a school house further northward, also will be aa Issue, but It seems that a majority of the people wanted at least a l6-room schoolhouse before the district builds somewhere else. When the present bond ing becomes a 15-room structure, then they will be willing that another school house be put up at the north end. It 'Is held that it will cost less to operate a large building than It will to have two small ones. However, at the present rate of growth in St. Johns, another school house will have to be built at the north side of the town in about two years In any event, as sixteen rooms on the pres ent site will be crowded. Initiative One Hcjcdre. The special committee of the Initiative One Hundred will meet this afternoon at 4 o'clock in room G03 of the Commercial building to complete plans for a permanent volunteer organisation that will devote Its efforts to making Portland a cleaner and a more beautiful city.

A recent article from The Orrronlan fell iwfier my notlco purpotlnc to contain state ment made by rrofcrsor Wllhrlm QotwaW, of Lelpelc University, Germany, wherein he Is quoted as aylnc that "eventually man will artificially create not only the lower, but men higher forms of life- as rata, dogs and homes and 1 believe rxen man.'

That accounts for the house not being crowded at the reception of the Pollards opening night. They play and slpg all the week and everybody may have a chance to hear them. They were to begin an engagement In San Fran cisco last night, but changed their plans Jn consequence of the great earthquake. In most respects the company Is as good as It ever has been. From year to year, as they return to us. some of the famaliar faces have dropped out. and some of the youngsters grow up and ap pear differently to our eyes. Some arts twice and thrlce-told tales and beloved Tor that reason -And t.orne. who have sung sweetly and charmed us hereto fore :cc missed from the ranks. . Teddy McXamara Is f-oxncwhal taller than he was. but his talent for comedy has kept pace with his growth. Olive Pollard, a most angelic little creature, has Increased her charm in spite of los ing jomc of her extreme habjtch ways. Merle Pollard is a new one who Is ten derly elusive. Eva Pollard, who Is given prominence In the cast. Is promising. The twins. Johnny and Freddy Helntz. arc Immensely amusing. They all enter into the muslcal medley (their versions of the.vs operas always have Interpela tlons) Is ever spirited, frolicsome and en tertaining. The novelty of watching Australian tots of remarkable- attain ments handle a pretentious score and in tricate stage dialogue Is a never-falling source of surprise to mr. The company as a whole is made up of precocious and wonderfully trained children, and you get far more than you expect. The fact that they have been here so often, and that they are always well received, should gratify the manage ment and delight the children. T cannot understand, however, what an Intelligent guiding force of a show Is thinking about when incomparably the most gifted mem ber of the company la shoved Into th background. Daphne Pollard, who Is nothln? short of a genius In comedy and comic opera, a little singe wonder of 31 years, with the magnetism and chic of an Almee or a Paola Marie, unquestion ably the star of the aggregation and the best drawing card they have, was given a role from which was cut nearly all the fetching business and the songs also. The people are fond of the Pollards, and they want to ifccar them, even In these many-times repeated operas, but the majority of theater-goers go especial ly to see and hear Daphne Pollard. When they are denied what they so for they are dissatisfied, feeling as If they had not obtained what they sought. Not that they like the company less, but they very naturally like Daphne more. A stranger last night would not have known that so remarkable an actress as Daphne was In the cast. She had no chance to show her work. There Is no excuse for such miscasting as that. Hamlet is a good play. But It Is not so good with Hamlet left out. The Pollards presentation of all their opera this week Is worth going to hear and will entertain us. But It Is In tho Interest of the public and truth-telling that I register as appeal to the owners of the show to give us & fair amount of peeps at the Teal star of the organiza tion. A. H. BALLARD.

The letter Is from C- H. Dunton. past Krand master workman of the order In California. It reads as follows: "Dear Sir and Brother Tour ex ceedingly kind and thoughtful favor of April 20 Just received.

Wood Addresses People's s Foraw San Francisco's Lesson. "Better San Francisco bad been looted until Its citizens were aroused to de mand lawful enforcement of honesty and order than thai. through dependence upon the military innocent blood should be shed." declared Colonel C. E. S. Wood, late U. S. A., before the People's Forum, In Selllng-HIrsch hall last evening, in dis cussing the subject. "The Military In Its Relation to Human Progress." "If reports are true that lives of Inno cent citizens were wantonly taken by ir responsible soldiery. It demonstrates again that the people should not turn to the military as Its refuge In time of trou- ble. he continued. "It la a dangerous tendency of the American people to. de pend upon the military Instead of the civil authorities for the maintenance of order In times of .great stress. Especially dangerous is the practice of calling on the raw state militia in an emergency. The state militiaman with a rifle in his hand Is a menace to public safety. He Is filled with a sense of Ir responsible power, and Is not enough of a soldier to respect his own superiors or exercise self-control. The people of this country do not realize, as do the English people, the necessity of maintaining order through their own local authorities rather than to rely upon lawless military rule.' in tne open discussion following Colonel Wood's address his sentiments were echoed. There was none who presented any other side of the question. ?cxt Sunday evening "Equal Suffrage" will be discussed before the Forum, the Rev. Dr. Anna Shaw being the principal speaker. Dr. Shaw has invited opponents of suffrage to present either written or oral objections at the meeting. PERSONAUrlENTION. CHICAGO.
