COST WILL BE $1,600,000 Construction Crews Are Assembled for Work Which Heralds Joint t.e of Railroad by Hill and Harriman Trains. Tangible evidence of the reported agree ment between the Hill and the Harri man svstems for the joint use of the Northern Pacific track between Portland and Puget Sound was furnished yester day In the award by the Northern Pacific of the contract for double-tracking Its I:n between Kalama and Tacoma. Winston Bros., of Minneapolis. Minn., re ceived the contract, which, it is expected, will be completed within six months. The Improvement will cost approximately t.tvm.oiio. The double-tracking, of this road is rendered necessary by reason of the con tract by which the Union Pacific is to us the Northern Pacific track between Portland and Tacoma. While no official announcement of the award of the con tract has been made. Winston Bros, al ready have begun assembling their outfit of men and teams with which Immedi ately to begin actual construction. Work Will Be Hushed. Winston Btos. are the contractors who huilt a considerable part of the main line of the flilrago. Milwaukee & Pugot Sound Railroad In Montana. Their orders nre to rush work on the Kalama-Tacoma branch. In special Instances the present route of the Kalama-Tacoma line will be abandoned for a better grade. There will be approximately five miles of new work in order to obtain a better grade over the Napavlne hill. This part of the Improvement will be costly, averaging over $!0.( a mile. When representatives of the Hill and Harriman systems recently held a con ference in New York it became known that an understanding was reached by the terms of which the Union Pacific was to route Its trains from Portland over the Northern Pacific track to Tacoma. The same agreement involved the double tracking of the Northern Pacific between Kalama and Tacoma. Time Xot Yet Announced. The principal detail remaining to be settled is when the Union Pacific will begin running Its trains to Puget Sound under the traffic arrangement with Hill. This subject has been receiving the con sideration of various of the head officials of the two systems, but to date no defi nite announcement has been made as to when the new service will begin. The matter was last referred to J. C. Stubbs. head of the traffic department of the li.niniAn a.'atAm 1 1 hn cnnfcrrwi with William McMurrav. general passen ger agent for the Harriman lines In this territory, for the purpose of devising a schedule for the operation of their trains. Before leaving for Chicago, following his recent visit here. Mr. Stubbs an nounced that It would be only a short time until the Union Pacific would be using the Northern Pacific track under the terms of the agreement. At the time this remark was taken to Indicate that the Harriman people would not delay starting their service between Portland and Puget Sound until the task of double-tracking the Northern Pacific had been completed. There is a general be lief that some arrangement will be ef fected, if It already has not been made, by which Harriman trains will be run ning into Seattle before many weeks elapse.

FAMOUS BAND WILL PLAY IJberati's Musicians Coming to the Oaks Xext Sunday. Lovers of high-class music are look ing forward with plrasurable expectancy to next Sunday's concerts at the Oaks. Liberatl and his famous band are to give two concerts, one at 2:30 and the other at 8:30 P. M. ' There Is probably no Instrumental solo ist in the world with a greater number of ardent admirers than A. Liberatl. who for the last 36 years has been a resident of this country and has taken a promi nent part in furnishing the most delight ful entertainment along musical lines. He showed his patriotism for his adopted land at the outbreak of the Spanish American War. when he enlisted his en tire organization and was attached to an Ohio regiment. Many a time. It Is re lated, when the 'boys' showed signs of weariness, he would signnl his band to strike up some well-known air and after rendering a few selections he would end with a stirring patriotic tune with a re sult that the regiment forgot its weari ness and Joined In singing the "Star Spangled Banner." "Dixie." "Red. White and Blue" and "Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean." Beside being the recognized master in producing marvelous tones on the cornet and executing the most difficult passages with apparent ease, LIHerati has a most pleasing personality and numbers his per sonal friends by the thousand. The particular reason why so many people are counting upon attending the Oaks Sunday Is because they are to have an opportunity to hear tho great Liberatl and his band without paying $2 or $3 for the privilege. The band has been engaged by the management of the Oaks at a large cost for the two concerts, which are In the nature of a contribution to the enjoyment of visitors to the park. It has been stipulated by Liberatl in his correspondence that he will have the full quota of his musical organization present at the concerts Sunday, but that the en gagement cannot be extended over one day for the reason that his contracts call for his presence In California as soon as he can get there after Sunday.

A team of 20 camels hitched to a great Egyptian chariot, also teams of elephants, llamas and dlbr are other remarkable features of the street display. , For many years Ringllng Brothers have had the reputation of presenting a circus parade far more attractive and longer than that given by any other show. Tills season's street entertainment more than ever reflects the genius and skill of the five brothers. Its many floats, chariots, war carriages, howdahs, tableau cars, throne wagons, rickshaws, dens and fairy art vans are built of burnished gold and hand-carved mahogany. The 650 horses wear silver-mounted harness and the best of Imported silk and broadcloth are used In the making of the 1400 costumes and the countless flags and banners. The great herds of elephants and camels are draped with Persian blankets and the richest of Oriental rugs and tapestry dec orate the handsome throne wagons.

OREGON MEDICAL INSTITUTE S914 MORRISON ST, BET. FOURTH AND FIFTH, PORTLAND, OR. THOROUGHLY CURED As medical science advances, the more ap parent becomes the folly of employing harsh and dangerous measures In attempting to cure the ailments of men. Drastic dosing and useless cutting hve done irreparable Injury in thousands of cases. I cure all special diseases of men promptly and permanently, and by painless methods that cannot possibly produce undesirable results. Twenty-five years of successful, prac tice as a specialist for men justifies every claim I make. 1 promise my patients a corrp'ete cure in every instance, and in cases where I cannot safely make this promise, I positively refuse to treat. A WARNING There Is no economy In employing an amateur to do an expert's task. Nine times In ten failure follows. In a large percentage of Instances the result Is harm. He doesn't treat enough cases to learn a great deal about them. His time Is so fully occupied in treating a full assortment of human ills that he cannot devote special study to any partlcu ar branch of practice. Most diseases are sufficiently simple as to require no special training other than that received In the medical colleges and that afforded by experience in general practice. He prefers to be re lieved of tasks beyond his training, though he cannot, without fear of iniuring a patient's confidence In his ability, recommend the service of a specialist instead of his own. , CONTRACTED DISORDERS Be sure your cure Is thorough. Not one of my patients has ever had a re lapse after being discharged as cured, and I cure in less time than the ordi nary forms of treatment require. My treatment is absolutely painless and perfect results can be depended upon in every instance. I do no cutting or dilating whatever.
