A man of indefinite age, his hat bat tered, his face like a briar patch on a Virginia clay hill, bis clothes bearing the sta'ns of travel and food that missed its destination, but with all possessed of a pair of spark ilng eyes and the corners'of a mouth that trend ed upward in optimism this man steppedjjauntily into the Glaeierjotfice the other day and called lor the boss. It was Jack Silk, dean of Pacific coast tramp printers, a genus that is almost gone. "1 have had one cup or coffee this morning," said Jack, whose last call here was several years ago but whose face apparently had not changed in all that time, "and I'd like to get a little work and make some money for an other. I've got a $500 bill but I don't want to break it." Jack smilingly produced an old wal let and took therefrom a piece of stage money, marked jm ' 1 lust wanted to show i wasnt ly ing, he remarked. A job running a press was ottered the veteran tramp printer, but this insulted him. He de clined, showing a hurt dignity. I won t run no press," he said.

Jack began his career in southern California 40 years ago, according to his story. He was cook for a party driving overland. They stopped at Lscondido, where a little print shop was being operated by an early en thusiast. The machinery was pro pelled with a steam engine. It was before the days of gasoline. I was a confident youth, says Jack, "and accepted the job of fire man, although 1 knew next to nothing about boilers and steam engines. I was left alone iu the shop and told to get ud steam. The guage showed seven pounds and the boiler began to sputter. I got scared and ran out to notify the town marshal. When we got back the guage showed 15 pounds. It certainly took a load off my should ers when that marshal told me that sputtering oi the oia Doner bad no menace until the steam pressure be came much greater." Jack has been working near Bakers- Held the past winter. On his north ward trip he stuck to the Pacific High way, he says, and the only railroad fare raid by him was for a ticket be tween Albany and Salem, less than $1. I picked up rides with autoista the rest of the way, he said, "mostly Fords. The fellows with the little cars are the kindest to us bums. The big cars just whizx along and let us hoof it." MILITARY BALL NEXT THURSDAY NIGHT Variety is the spice of life. The Tuesday Lunch Club gives its members plenty of variety. One of the funniest programs the members have had an opportunity of hearing recently was given Tuesday at the Oregon Hotel by C. P.

Sinclair read an Invitation from the Portland Progressive Bust ness Men's Clubs, asking affiliation of the local organization.

Burglars blew the safe of the Rialto theatre Sunday night, obtaining $345 in small silver but overlooking $132 in a sheaf of bills with $13 in silver among them. The yeggs, from the clean work, are judged to have been professionals. The door of the safe, in a small closet opening in Manager Kolstad's office, was blown clean. The explosion was so muffled by curtains and tapestries of the theatre that per sons sleeping across the street were not aroused. The curtains had been soaked in water, in order that they might be fitted more snugly over the safe. As patrons of the theatre were leav ing atter the last show. Manager Kol- stad noted three suspicious characters on the opposite side of the Btreet. He advised Harry Post to keep an eye on the automobiles of patrons who sought soft drinks before going home. borne time later," says Mr. Kol- stad, "I saw four or five men standing at a shadowed corner, but bv this time all automobiles were gone, and I gave their presence no more thought. the burglary was discovered about 8.30 Monday by Ed Kocb, who oper ates the barbershop in the theatre building. He discovered the disar ranged tapestry and then noted the jimmied doors. Entrance was gained through a back door, jimmied with pick axe ana a steel bar. I be same implements were used in forcing the onicu door. Sheriff Johnson, accompanied by Constable Olinger, who was returning from balem. where thev had taken prisoner, thinks it possible that he met the safe crackers between here and Wyeth. It was after 8 o'clock when Sheriff Johnson arrived in the city, One of the automobiles met on the road contained several men and woman, ine party was apparently in some altercation. It is thought per haps that the safe crackers were in volved in an argument over a split of the loot. The theatre was fully insured against loss by burglary. fill III I I I I I I IMIIMHIII Clipped Here and There i j H I I II I I I I I I 1 I I I I HI I I I I I tun S, FURS AND FEATHERS n i ii 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 1 mi mil Herman O.

"THAT SOMETHING" TO BE AT RIALTO "That Something," a motion picture show being broadcasted under auspices of the Tacoma, Wash., Rotary Club, having been written by a Tacoma man and conveying the underlying princi ples of the great organization, will he presented at the Rialto theatre Friday and Saturday. "The show is about the development cf the inner self of a man and the bringing forth of those qualities that make for general service to fellow men and success. It is not a startling show, although exceedingly well acted, for it is devoid of sensations. Yet it holds the man or woman viewing it from the very beginning. It is a show that possesses "that something" that makes the spectator sit and look and think. "That Something" has received plaudits wherever it bas been shown. Manager Kolstad who has already booked the picture, had an advaned showing of it at the Rialto last Satur day morning. The revue was attended by men and women representative of all interests. Every last one of them went forth hearlding the appeal of the picture and congratulating Mr. Kolstad on securing it. It will convey an up lifting moral for the grade school stud ent as well as for the youth or adult. Many of those who saw the picture Saturday were busy at office or other wise. Most of them expected to see a few minutes of the show and then slip silently away. Nobody, however, left until the last scene of "That Some thing" had flitted its way across the screen. GASOLINE TESTS MADE LAST WEEK In gasoline tests made last week, Red Crown, product of the Standard Oil Co., scored highest. One test was performed in a 4-passenger Oldsmobile, furnished by the Highway Auto Co., which reports as follows : "The gasoline was fed from a one gallon can attached to motor, with di rect connection to carburetor, travel ing over a prescribed route, average speed twenty-five miles (25) per hour, starting at the same place on each gas oline with the following results: "Associated gasoline, 15.5 miles; Red Crown gasoline, 16 3 miles; Union gasoline, 15.35 miles. "The additional .8 miles made on Red Crown Gasoline was made on Ruthton hill which has a five per cent grade. We feel that if the additional .8 miles had been run on a level road an additional .2 miles would have been made by Red Crown gasoline." Another test was made by the Mt. Hood Motor Co., using a Snort Model Nash, carrying four passengers also, which made the following report: . "A Bpecial one gallon tank attached to the motor with a direct connection to the carburetor was used. The con ditions on each test were exactly the same in reference to starting point, course covered, atmospheric conditions and speed. One half a gallon was used in each case with the following results : "Associate gasoline, 9.25 miles per i gallon, 18.5 miles per gallon; Union gasoline,9.25 miles per i gallon less 150 feet, 18.5 miles per gallon less 300 feet; Red Crown gasoline, 9.5 miles per I gallon, 19.0 miles per gallon."
