TIIE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND, MARCH 30, 1913. OHIO DEATH LIST GROWS GRADUALLY Number Now Placed at 471 With Debris. Yielding Other Bodies. 91 FOUND AT HAMILTON, 0. Governor Cox Estimates I'ropcrLy I-om In State at $300,000,000. Problem Now Is o Get Supplies to Flood Zone. fOLUMBUS. O.. March 29. Best ob tainable Information tonight placed Otiioa flood death list at 471. As the flooded rivers recede the death list gradually grows, bodies being picked out of the debris and found in the low. lands. Ultra-conservative estimates placs the number of dead, in this state at not mors than E00. However, no authentic Information has been received from Marietta. Ports mouth, Ironton and scores of smaller cities and villages where losses may hav resulted. The largest increase in the death list was at Hamilton. Colonel Zimmer man, in charge of the militia there, reported to the Adjutant-Oeneral's of fice In this city tonight that 1 bodies had been recovered. Previous infor mation from Hamilton stated only 60 persons had lost their lives. tate Daad. Sam Cox. Governor Cox tonight Issued a state ment saying: "The end of the week finds the state dazed and numbed in contemplation of the tremendous and widespread de struction In almost every section. The situation today assumed a number of novel angles. It is becoming now a problem of getting food within our borders, a condition which demon strates' horv impotent even a great state Is when communication is sev ered. Cincinnati, in the fullness of her bounty, shipped train loads of supplies lnl the lower Miami Valley end the Southeastern parts of Indiana as well. Philanthropy displaced prejudice, and tonight the 'Queen City of the West' appeals to the state for assistance. "Dayton and Zanesville, the two troublesome points so far as exten sion of relief was concerned, are In pretty fair shape. The Western food supply was tapped by way of Indian apolis. The Chicago Association of commerce, at our request, established a base at Indianapolis as soon as rail road traffic was resumed between Day ton and the Indiana capital. Ten car loads of lime, five cars of gasoline and a tralnload consisting of bread, vege tables and clothing are on their way t Dayton now from that point. Time Is as needful now ad food for the pur pose of disinfecting Military la tireai Al. "The military organization has been a great service and the week closes to night with some measure of consolation in the thought that every section that ha appealed to us has had hunger ap peased. Colonel Zimmerman, of the eighth Regiment, was sent at daylight from Dayton into Hamilton and this af ternoon he sends his official report, which Is indeed a gruesome tale. "Nineiy-one bodies will bo Interred tomorrow. Two hundrel horses were burned in the streets. Two or three of tii principal thoroughfares have been washed into ditches 20 feet deep. With the Cincinnati supply aimmisu Ing down to the point of need and the Ohio flood situation cutting off com munication from both the East and South, we doubtless face a crisis in dealing with the situation at Cincin nati and Hamilton. "All Uhlo river towns are wrapped in water tonight. Ripley. Pomeroy. MUldleport and Galllpolls are heavy sufferers. New Richmond. Higglns Irt and several little towns in Cler mont County are In trouble. "It is said that there is not a bridge standiug over either the Muskingum "The loss, at Columbus will be about 100 lives. The maximum at Dayton, as it appears now, v. Ill be 200. Hamil ton will run about 150. "Ksiimates have been made this af ternoon with considerable care and it Is the belief that property loss in the state will agKregate J3UO.OuO.000."

In honor of M olid a Glendower (Ida Jennings), daughter of Councilman J. J. Jennings. 150 Woodmen of the World, in charge of William Reldt. attended tlie Empress last night to see the Fort land actress in "A Christmas on the Comstock." The uniform rank of the Woodmen were dressed in their full lodge regalia and occupied a row of seats in front of their fellow lodge men. The Woodmen in uniform, in command of Captain Larson, were ap plauded vehemently by the audience as thev marched down the center aisle. Several bouquets were presented the Portland vaudeville star over the foot lights at both performances last night, and at the close of Miss GJendowers act she was obliged to respond to fully a dozen curtain calls so continuous was the applause of the Woodmen who had a-sembled in her nonor ana in com pliment to her father, their fellow lodgeman. FOLLIES INCREASES RELIEF F Theater Managers Report 'Crucifixion' of 'East Lynne' for Flood Sufferers. CAUSE FILLS EVERY SEAT 'Suffering" Audience, to Enthusi astic Spirit, Rises on Every Oc casion to Applaud Play Is Voted Huge Success. More than $1100 was cleared last night at the Hetlig Theater when the theater managers of Portland again in flicted their production of "East Lynne" upon the publio and the public eagerly came and "stood for it." for the pro ceeds of this second production ot the annual "Fo'lies" will be turned Into the relief fund for the Ohio and Indiana flood sufferers. The box office receipts amounted to more than $1000 clear and the receipts from the sales of candy and flowers were $90. Truly "charity covereth a multitude of sins" and the great annual crime of the theater managers this time prob ably will be written white beside their names on the "Book of Souls." The repetition of the production was. as Manager Pangle of the Heilig ex pressed it. "gotten up on the spur of the moment." but what they lost by lateness in beginning to advertise their reappearance, the theater managers made "P in the thoroughness with which they put the event and the pur pose for which its proceeds should be used before the public. Parade (lives Play Publicity. Their whirlwind campaign of public ity for the "Follies" closed at noon with a full parade of the principal malefactors in the east through the streets, as had been the method of the first production. The Musicians Union of Portland donated its share toward the benelit by furnishing a band of 150 pieces to head the parade. The thoroughness with which the general publio got the idea was mani fested by the rush upon the box office, which began at once and did not cease until the theater was packed. The jangling cowbell with which the pre siding genius in the box office "rung up" each purchase of tickets ran through the afternoon and evening in a correct solo imitation of a farmyard scene in which half a dozen nervous bell cows must have been featured in the leading role, and the "suffragette cop" about the entrance found diffi culty In stemming the rush of human ity that poured In to give Its approval to the benefit production of the "Fol lies." Audience) f Enthusiastic The success of the bill which pre ceded, in the "Follies." the atrocity of the managers themselves, has already had its praises sung by the reviewers earlier in the week. From the pre lude given by Weber's Juvenile Or chestra from 7:30 to 8:30 through the bill of acts from the Orpheum, the Empress. Fantages and the Lyric, with several new specialties interspersed, the success of the Thursday night "Fol lies" was repeated with a shower of additional wreaths of glory, for the audience was on its tiptoes all the time and tingling with electric enthusiasm that sent the bouse rumbling into a storm of applause at the slightest.' provocation. Loris Louise Gratke, closing the first half of the bill in her solo bpanish dance, scored a wonderful success, for she danced with a grace and buoyance. a flash of eyes and tossing of pretty curls that made her seem rather the spirit of the dance incarnate than simply a graceful and beautiful little girl. Then Joe Hays, in the costume of a broken down actor, recited "The Other One Was Booth," and then the curtain rose upon the revised version of "East Lynne." butchered a second time by the theater managers to make a Portland holiday. Play Voted Success. Through all its harrowing details the play was crucified and for a second time, after Frank Coffinberry, In the closing act. had entered with an auto matic revolver and eliminated all com petition in the City of Portland, and when Flood and Pierong, Pangla and Keating, and Johnson and Heilig and Cordray and Seaman lay in their imaginary gore, and the heartless vil lain planted his foot on the "lunch counter" of the fair, deceased- Isabel (George Baker), the suffering people of Portland rose and voted the "Follies" a success, the purpose of its reproduc tion most laudable but the theater managers unquestionably the rankest aggregation of actors that had ever had the nerve to stand up and perform them. . The young women who assisted in the entertainment last night selling candies and flowers in the lobby were: Lucile Bronaugh. Norma Redman, Kllse Cramer, Mary Campbell, Maud Bate ham, uzzane Johnson. Jessie Johnson, Eva McGuire. Chaperones were: Miss Fay and Mrs. J. w. Campbell. The little flower girls who assisted were: Frances Reglne. Dorothy faull. Fern Allen. Peggy Boyer, Owing Wol- cott.

Church-going Is a neces sity, he said, not a mere convenience. Welcome of Rain Praiaed. Bishon McConnell, the next speaker, said that he was glad to get to Port land where the rain was welcomed and not called "exceptional weather," as it was everywhere he had traveled. He said that it had taken many people a long time to find out that the gospel of Jesus Christ was the gospel of com mon sense, and explained that spiritual advice was often secular advice.

Forsyth said that he was glad to be one of Cooke's tourists and then scored the people in Rogue River Valley, whom, he said, told bigger lies about their fruit than they did in Colo rado, where he came irom. tie saia that he was told about a pear orchard for which J4000 an acre was refused be cause it brought in more than that per acre in less than three crops. Dr. F. B. Fisher, who preceded Bishop Cooke's closing remarks, said that he had been likened to one of Raphael's cherubim and asked if Mary Hawkins were present, as he had been asked to look for Mary Hawkins In Oregon by an old Scotch woman when he was in Scotland two years ago.
