I dare not stop to look up at them or I'll fall into some of the graves that are being dug in the streets." I interviewed the marvelously clever Miss Illington yesterday. That Is, correctly speaking, I Inter viewed Mr. Edward Bowes, who travels with his wife on her starring tour in "TTIIM- T The lovely, lissome and I give you my word absolutely charming Miss Illington sat by and said, "Yes, Eddie," mno, Eddie," or "That's what I think. too, dear," whenever punctuation was permitted.

Last year and the year before it was expected that friend hus band would hold his ear to the key hole of interviews, because last year he owned the show, "Kindling," and was new to the theatrical business.

By a Juggling method known only to newspaperdom I extracted from Miss Illington the fact that she's going to stay right on with this great big crook drama, "With the Law," for two years. Furthermore, she likes the role of Mary Turner and also she understands SPECIAL WILL Large Delegation Expected to Go to Roseburg Meeting.

Indications are that Portland will send a strong representative delega tion to the development convention In Roseburg Thursdafy, Judging from re ports brought in by the members of the special committee on the excursion, which met at the Commercial Club yes terday at luncheon to discuss plans for Portland's representation. Members of the committee, all of whom were present, are: O. M. Clarke, A. H. Devers, Paul De Haas, W. L. Crlssey, G. F. Johnson, C. W. Stinger, John M. Scott, Tom Rich ardson and W. B. Glafke. Despite the fact that this was the first meeting of the committee, some of the members had been doing ad vance work and had 11 signatures In hand. One of the most popular things about this trip is that every minute of day light will be given to work and only one day will be lost from business. The train leaving the Union Depot at Portland at 8:16 P. M. Wednesday gives opportunity of going to bed early and on arrival at Roseburg the sleepers will be sidetracked and delegates can take their time In rising and breakfast at leisure. The Roseburg depot Is near the busi ness center and the train leaves at 11:15 P. M. for Portland, but if anyone wishes to retire earlier he may do so. Portland Is to be reached at 7:20 A. M. Friday.

For our especial delectation Miss Illington has pursued in the theater a qpost in teresting career of criminality. Only a short time ago she was the thieving Marie Louise Voysin in Henri Bern stein's highly interesting theatrical in vention, 'The 'Thief." Last season she was pilfering again, looting work bas kets for wads of baby ribbon and carrying away a baby's silver mug from the home of her employer in "Kin dling," Charles Kenyon's play of the slums. In - this, her latest dip into thievery, she disdains the really pie beian garden variety and goes in for a sort of eugenic stealing. All the sud- tleties, all the soft graces of the art are hers. A lawyer lends moral sup port to her transactions and she' is a bewitching adventuress. Miss Illing ton plays for us types that are abso lutely at war with society and she evokes our greatest sympathy. Hamlet Next on Bill. After "Within the Law" she Is not going to play any more thieves. She is going to play Hamlet lr you please. "It has been the dream and study and big ambition of my life to leave a monument to my career in the way of memories of my having been a great Hamlet, and a Rosalind, and a v loia, and all the others," she said. "I'd rather play in 'The Lure' and make a lot of money," my ambitious soul prompted me to say. . ,- "Well, I wouldn't," Margaret Illing- ton's ambitious soul answered right back. I believe in art for art's sake. I want to play Shakespeare for my own happiness. I knew every one of Shakespeare's plays wnen the only two plays of any sort I had ever seen were "Little Lord Fauntleroy" and "Rip Van I found out so that I could answer a "Correspondent" who had written in to find out, "What nation ality is Miss Illington descended from?" It's Dutch, dear "Correspond ent." Her name was Maud Light and she took her last name from her birth place, Bloomington, 111., shifting them around to make Illington; but her folks are Hollanders. "And I've visited in Holland a dozen times, where you can't get a piece of Edam cheese," she said - ... Then her husband added, "If you want to eat a good Oregon apple, don't wait till you get here or you'll go without. The best Oregon apples are in New York City." ranged.

The Salem delegation will Join that from Portland. The people of Oregon are determined to stop a large portion of the travel In this state and not have it all go through Oregon, with the only stop at Portland.

EVENING SHOPPING TO BE TOLERATED Concession Made by Welfare Commission on Showing of Big Department Stores. SEVEN DAYS' LEEWAY GIVEN Four ( Saturdays and Three Nights Before Christmas Women May Work XTntil 10 P. M., Then . Orders Will Be Effective. Permission was granted yesterday by the Industrial Welfare Commission for women employed in Portland stores to work until 9 P. M. for the four Satur days before Christmas, including to day, and for the three nights Just be fore' Christmas. Other days prior to Christmas women may work in the stores only until 8 P. M., In accord ance with the Commission's recent six- months' amendment of its original rul ing that no women should work in Portland stores after 6 P. M. . This arrangement was effected fol lowing the appearance before the Com mission yesterday of George W. Jo seph, representing four department stores the Meier & Frank Company. Olds' Wortman & King, Lipman, Wolfe & Company and Holtz. Roberts Broth ers' store was not represented, but will abide by the results of the conference. The Commission modified its previous stand In consideration of the following arguments, as presented by Mr. Jo seph. The department stores have bought heavily of holiday goods, which the public by long habit is accustomed to buy at late hours Just before Christmas. With the Commission's ruling taking effect at a time Just before the holi day shopping season, and the public not accustomed to the changed condi tions, the stores would be liable to heavy loss' in unsold goods. It was urged by Mr. Joseph that the holiday season is not an advantageous time to. begin to train the public to do Its shopping early, and that it is the period at which it would be most difficult to reorganize the working forces of the stores to meet the changed conditions. The five stores named are willing to abide toy the ruling of the Commission limiting women to eight hours and 20 minutes work each day and will ar range their schedule accordingly. "The Commission is pleased to receive this voluntary co-operation from the larger stores," said Chairman O'Hara last night, "and is gratified that It has been able to effect an agreement which relieves department store women from working 10 hours a day during the holiday rush. "We are pleased also that the larger stores have agreed to have no women work later than 7 P. M. after January 1, which means that they will quit work an hour earlier than the Com mission had ordered for the five months prior . to May 2'3, when the 6 o'clock ruling becomes effective."

It is de clared by physicians the most wholesome of all fruit acids, and has been proved by long and universal experience the most efficient and satis factory for baking purposes. Highly refined products of the grape, properly combined with bicarbonate of soda and a little corn starch to absorb atmospheric moisture, are the sole ingredients of the ideal, high-class, standard baking powder. Many acids have been tried during the last hun dred years to find a substitute for the grape cream of tartar which would cost less. In recent years alum, which makes a baking powder at a cost of two cents a pound, has been used because of its trifling cost. Alum, however, has been disapproved by scientific chemists and physicians and is not em ployed by manufacturers of high-class powders.
