Deprived of its appropriation by veto of the Governor, the Oregon State Xormal School at Monmouth Is preparing to launch a bill that will put the entire nor mal school issue directly before the peo ple. Through the Initiative, at the June election in 1908. teachers and friends of the institution will submit to the voters a measure so drawn tip that they shall determine exactly which schools are to be maintained and which Fevered from their source of supply, the 9:ate Treas ury. One school or a 11 four may be given support, or one or all discontinued. Teachers employed at Monmouth speak with feeling- concerning the action of the I.Eislature in handicapping their appro priation with the Drain rider. It is their opinion that if this had not been done. Governor Chamberlain would not have nippod the Monmouth Institution with the fiffirial prunins-hook. but that it would b now ftourishinsr as the bay tree, plcnieously watered from the fountain of public subsidy. But the bet of logic wilt not undo the past, and they are therefore to make their appeal to the voters. If it is left for the people to decide, they have not the slightesi doubt as to which schools will feci the merciless ax or rather which one will not, for they have little to say regarding their rival insti tutions. "It is definitely settled that we shall go br f ore the people at the election next year with a bill that will settle the nor mal school question in its entirety." said A. F. Campbell, an instructor in the Mon mouth institution, who was In Portland yesterday. "All normal schools will be named in the bill and the votes will be cast on each separately. Such as receive a majority will receive the usual appro priation from the state. Those that do not will have to get along without public support, either discontinuing or running on private donations. In this way the public can keep one. two, three, or four schools as it sees lit. Or, if it desires it could kill them all. "Monmouth is not pleased with the action of placing the Drain rider on its bill. If this had not been done, we be lieve the appropriation would have stood. The school has always tried to be fair in the matters of appropriation and of legislation. We always have asked that our appropriation bills be kept separate from those of other institutions. That this has not been done other years is due to the action of the ways and means com mittee that has Included it in the general appropriation bill. "Thw school at Monmouth is the oldest normal Institution in the state. It has "MO alumni nd 1500 old students through out Oregon. We are willing to stand on the reputation of the school as to its work. When the matter is brought to a general vote there is no doubt that the Monmouth appropriation will be sus tained. "The school will continue operating tinder the 1W5 appropriation until July 1. After that it is expected that it will be maintained by private subscription un til the election. This, of course, depends somewhat upon the action of the new board . of trustees that soon comes into power. The old board will meet next Monday and will probably pass resolu tions favoring the continuance of the school." NOTED LECTURER COMING Miss Lucy Broad Will Speak Under Auspices of V. C. T. V.

Confesses Conducting a Disorderly House in Guise of Manage Par lor Trouble Not Vet Ended. .Mrs. Regina Herman was fined and sentenced to serve a term of 30 days in the City Jail in the Municipal Court yesterday morning on a charge of con ducting a disorderly house in the guise of a massage parlor at 4! Washington street. The evidence was so conclusive that she entered a plea of guilty, through Lawyer Alexander 9week. Judge Cameron, after imposing the fine and sentence of imprisonment, stated from the bench that he haa never had a case where the evidence was more conclusive, and remarked that he had made the pen alty so heavy because of the startling na ture of the case and in ordpr that others engaged in running so-called massage parlors should fully understand that they are in a perilous business. Lawyer Sweek gave verbal notice of an appeal to the State Circuit Court, and pending the filing of a bond Mrs. Herman was lodged in the City Jail. In addition to the penalty inflicted by Judge Cameron, it is probable Mrs. Her man will have to face a charge of sell ing liquor without a Government license, which carries as the extreme penalty a line of J5000 and imprisonment for a term of two years. Internal revenue agents are investigating. Evidence adduced during the hearing of the case developed a most revolting state pf affairs as existing in the establish ment conducted by Mrs. Herman. "While running in the guise of a massage parlor, the place was shown to have been used for the purpose of inveigling young wom en into lives of shame. By Jessie and Winnie Morse, it was proven that liquor was sold all the time in the establishment, and counsel for the defense admitted, in order to save Uhle, that his client pos sessed no license to dispense liquor. The Morse girls went to the so-called massage parlor conducted by Mrs. Her man to secure employment, they testified. They read an advertisement that called for young girls to do light housework, and answered it. Mrs. Tier man said she would provide positions for both of them, and offered, them apartments In her place. Gradually, she induced them to drink tea, with whisky mixed in it, and then, by degrees, taught them to drink whisky without the tea. Still, later, they testi fied, she introduced them to men who called " and their ruin was accomplished in this manner. - Scott Morrill, proprietor of a saloon lo cated beneath the place formerly con ducted by MrsHerman, will be tried this morning on a charge of running a liquor shop in connection with a disorderly house. PLAN FOR BETTER STREETS More Than Eight Miles of Improve ments Projected. Streets in Multnomah Addition, Albina, extending between eiglt and nine miles, are to be improved as a whole, if the plans that have been adopted by the Mis sissippi Avenue Improvement Association are carried out. At the last meeting of the club a resolution was adopted pro viding for the improvement of all streets between the Willamette boulevard and Williams avenue and Fremont and Skid more streets. The Council has already provided tof a cement district between Fremont street, Blandena avenue, Willamette boulevard an -Williams avenue, so that all new sidewalks in this district shall be built of concrete, thereby gradually doing away wl t h wooden wa Iks. The kind of street improvements in Multnomah Addition'will probably be set t led at the meeting next Friday night. The improvements that are contemplated in this part of the city will cost fully $100,000 when completed. There is some difference of opinion as to whether the Ptreets are to be parked, paved with gravel or crushed rock, and when these questtons are settled the petitions for the improvements will be circulated. "ARMERIA" IS A FLOWER Botanical Writer Shows JjighthousC Tender Is Regularly Named. Several days ago a Iettetr of Inquiry was received by The Oregonian as to whether the Armeria. the lighthouse-tender recently ordered to this district, was named for a flower. Officers of the Lighthouse Service were not able to answer the query satisfac torily at the time. A local botanist set tles the matter, however, by quoting from Asa D. Gray's "How Flowers Grow." proving that the Armeria was named for a flower. The quotation fol lows: "Armeria. of the Leadwort family, Or der Plumbagincae, 'Thrift.' In the gar den known by having a dry. scaly, funnel-shaped calyx and five petals, united at the base, with a stamen before each and five styles on a single, one-seeded ovary.

By means of a flume and pipe line nearly a mile long the Pence Company is washing down the Scotch Nubbin, which stands above Willamette Heights, and is carrying- the dirt in the flume to the ground behind the Government building:. A tract of 24 acre3 has been Inclosed by a dyke and the land will be filled to a height of five feet, making: it level with the floor of the Government building. Three giants are sluicing away the top of the Scotch Nubbin and the water holds the dirt in solution until it. pours out on the low land at the Government building. where it is deposited and the water runs off. The flume and pipeline follow the side of the hills at rather a sharp in cline, cross Macleay Gulch on a bridse and are carried through the old Klondike mining building and across the Trail and Bridgo or Nations on a high pipeline- It is expected to have tne tract now being filled finished early this Summer. This will depend altogether upon the rains during the Spring and the available water supply. Piledrivers are busy between the Klon dike building and the site of the Ameri can Inn, building bulkheads for a huge dyke which will inclose 70 acx-es of low ground. This ground is now partially overflowed by Guild's Lake.. The work of filling this tract in the same way as the ground near the Government building is being covered will bo begun as soon as the llrst tract is completed. A force of 120 men are at work for the Pence Company in the hydraulic opera tions and very good progress is being made. Work will be continued as late in the Summer as the water supply is available.

An Iowa lady shows that Postum Food Coffee has proved a great promoter of health. She says: "During nearly all of my life till a year ago I used coffee daily, without knowing it - kept me thin and feeling bad. I was induced to quit coffee and try Postum. I liked tt from the first, and found that I felt better than I did while I was using the old kind of coffee. So I continued fo uso it. "After a few weeks I began to realize that I was growing plumper, and was pleased to find the other day that I had gained 15 pounds in the 13 months. Pos tum gives me a splendid appetite, in fact I can eat and digest my food perfectly now. "My husband has. all bis life, been troubled with 'bold-hives' and has been quite a sufferer from catarrh in the head. He also quit coffee, and began to use Postum Food CofTee about a year ago, with manifest good results. His catarrh has vanished and he has not had an attack of hold-hives' for six months. My friends, noting the change in both of us. say. Why. how well you look' Do you really suppose it is Postum that has made the change?' and I reply. 'Most emphatically I do. for it is the only change we have made in our mode of living." "My sister, who used to suffer greatly from -biliousness, quit coffee and began to drink Postum Food Coffee two years ago. She never has bilious attacks any more. Ijke my husband, my father has found that his catarrh has disappeared since he gave up coffee and began to use Postum Food Coffee. He has also gained de cidedly in flesh." Name given by Postum Co..
