SCHOOLS TO BE LARGER 1CASTKRX MULTNOMAH TO IX CKKASE ACCOMMODATIONS. Grcsham, Kookwood and Terry All Vol for Additions to Their School Buildings' This Summer. ORES HAM. Or., April 24. 9pecial. Throe school districts of this vicinity, Gresham, Rockwood and Terry, have recently votd to increase their present accommodations for pupils by erecting new butldinps at an airrega.te expense of about J1S.000. At this plac the pres ent building: will be enlarged by adding four more rooms and an assembly hall, at a cost of the outlay having" been authorized by the people of the dis trict. The money will be borrowed and paid off in two years by a direct tax. The present structure contains four rooms, beside which the old Methodist Ohurch Is In use by one of the grades. The school population is something over 3t"0 and is growing all the time. Work on the new structure will begin in June and the building wilt be ready for use when the Fall term begins in September. At Rockwood an entirely new four room building will be erected in place of the one-room structure now in use. The latter building Is but six years old and baa beea sold 4o JEtocfcwood Grange for a lodgeroom. It will be moved to a new location and the new building will be put on the old site at a cost of $&X0. Plans are drawn and the building will be ready for use by the middle of Sep tember. The one-room schoolhouse at Terry will be enlarged by the addition of two more rooms. The district has authorised an expenditure of $2530 for the purpose and the building will be ready for the Fall term. Fifteen teachera will be employed In these three districts next Winter, in stead of eight, as at present. The G re a ham High School will be continued on broader lines, the experiment having proved successful of inviting outside pupils to take the prescribed course upon payment of a small fee In addition to the sum paid by the districts out of the school allowance, from which the pupil comes. The school is now in Its fourth year and w ill probably have a few graduates at the close of the pres ent term. There is a movement on foot to organ ise a Union High School at some other point In Eastern Multnomah, available to all pupils of this part of the county, but the plans are not fully developed yet.

Steve Ramsey, a young man accused of .passing a large number of counterfeit dollars in the city during the past few weeks, was arrested late yesterday after noon by Patrolman Blarkman, at Kat Second and East Alder streets, after a lively chase of two blocks. Half a dozen pedestrians Joined in the chase, but Black man proved the speediest man In the bunch and overtook the fugitive easily. Ramsey passed the dollar on Henry Mayer, at 113 Grand Avenue. That the money . was bogus waa not discovered until Ramsey had left. Patrolman Black man was called and given a description of the bogus-coin man. The officer located his man shortly afterwards on Second street, near East Alder, As the officer came up, Ramsey broke Into a run and kept his lead for two blocks before being run down. When searched, considerable other money was found in his pockets, but no part of it seemed to be counterfeit.

Smith was asked to stand in with the Beef Trust and raise the price of meat here in Portland. "Peo ple are getting their meat too cheap," was the argument. After trying for two years to drive him out, using every means and method to do the work, after putting up mar kets all around about him in order to trap the public, the Beef Trust now offers Smith a chance to stand in with it and share the spoils. SMITH WILL NOT RAISE THE PRICE OF MEAT. If he gets more patronage he can lower it. He is now sav ing the Portland public at least $500,000 a year. Every householder in the city should trade , with Smith. Pass up the Beef Trust and its markets, who are scheming to control the meat supply of Portland, FRANK L. SMITH MEAT CO.
