EVENING GOWN OF MESSALINE
A gracefully draped evening1 "gown
of violet, messaline was the original
of the above drawing. The material
is used on the left side of the bodice
only, the right shoulder being crossed
by a broad band of embroidery in
shades of violet which was bordered
with gilt fringe. The center of ' the
front and back of the blouse was filled
with cream lace of which latter the
sleeves were also made. The skirt
consisted of a tunic draped to the
right side and falling in exquisite lines
over an underskirt of lace. The tunic
is held by. a cluster of tassels.
FOR WEE TOTS.
Children's Millinery More Charming
Than Ever This Winter.
Many of the children's hats in white
beaver or rabbit skin have high pointed
crowns.
Wreaths in new forms are the favor
ite trimming for hats of this sort.
KOVKIi GTTIMPE FBOOK.
Maiden hair fern intertwined with a
few tiny ribbon flowers makes a very
dainty wreath.
Another charming novelty is a
wreath of convolvulus in delicate pink
and blue, with the edges just tipped
with gold. Dull gold flowers are woru
by some children, and a couple of large
pink ribbon roses set up at the side
of the hat replace the wreath on one
model of rabbit.
The guimpe frock is always one of
the prettiest that young children can
wear. Here is one that is quite novel,
for it is trimmed in an unusual man
ner, while the simplicity of the style
Is retained. JUDIO OHOLLET.

BITULITHIC STANDS HEAVIEST
TRAFFIC
Traffic-Census Taken on Fifth Street,
Heaviest Traffic Street in Port
land, Substantiates Assertion
In connection with any subject, ac
curate figures not only . establish the
facts, in the last analysis, but they
lend interest through their very il
lumination. It is therefore interest
ing, and, it may be accepted also by
the open-minded as conclusive also,
to record here the result of a traffic
census, which has com to the notice
of local people, taken on Fifth street,
one of the busiest thoroughfares in
Portland's business district, last Wed
nesday. The census figures are vouch
ed for by the parties taking them, and
serve to substantiate the claim that
Bitulithic will stand the heaviest of
traffic, at a maintenance cost amount
ing to practically nothing during long
terms of years. The Bitulithic on the
stated street in Portland was laid in
1905, seven years ago, and official re
cords of that municipality show that
the maintenance cost has been prac
tically ail. - " .
The traffic census follows, as taken
last Wednesday during that day's bus
iness hours:
A total of 2,605 vehicles passed the
census-taker, by careful and actual
count,' There were 337 one-half ton
loads; 904 one-ton; 274 two and one
half tori; 218 two ton; 202 two and
one-half ton; 193 three ton; 133 three
and one-half ton; 142 four ton; 56
four and one-half ton; 76 five ton, and
71 five and one-half ton loads, all in
cluded' in the foregoing total of 2,605
vehicles. Olmpian.

(W the Metropolitan
I f B composer and libr
grand opera which won the $10,000 prize offered .by
Opera company for the best work by an American
librettist, is regarded by some critics as having for its
motive the condemnation of the "new woman," somewhat as Mae
terlinck's "Arinne et Barbe Bleue" was thought to be a satire on the suf
fragists - "Mona." however, is a tragedy, whereas the other opera may almost
be called a comedy The scene of the new piece is laid in ancient Britain,
although both collaborators are Americans, Professor Horatio W. Parker, the
composer, being a native of Massachusetts and dean of the Yale Music school
and Brian Hooker, the librettist, a New Yorker. Mr Hooker's first poetic
effort to attract wide attention was the Yale prize song, "Mother of Men "
The title part in the New York production of the opera was sung by Mme
Louise Homer, one of the most popular of American grand opera singers The
Metropolitan Opera company has no American conductor, and the honor of
directing the production from the orchestra pit went to an Austrian. Alfred
Hertz, while the general direction is. of course, in the hands of the Italian
manager of the opera company, Giulio Gatti-Casazza. .

TRAINED ELEPHANTS TO
BE FEATURE OF CIRCUS
With the Al G. Barnes Big Three
Ring Wild Animal Circus which will
give two performances in Oregon City
April 29 there is a herd of elephants
which does almost everything with
the exception of talking. They oper
ate a barber shop, run a laundry, play
ten pins, etc., besides their acrobatic
work. Elephants come ' next . to the
dog in smartness, but it rather diffi
cult to teach them tricks because of
their size. -
In learning an elephant to stand up
on his' hind legs, ropes are attached
to each of his fore legs and then at
tached to a crane high up in the air.
At certain words of command they
are 'gently hoisted in the air, leaving
the elephant supporting himself on
his hind legs. This has to be done
sometimes as often as fifteen or six
teen times before the huge beast, und
erstands what is wanted. But after
a while simply from force of habit,
he begins to raise himself at the sig
nal. It takes about fourteen men to
opertate the cranes.
Much the same sort of thing is done
in teaching him to lie down, only in
this case a rope with a slip noose is
passed around his body at the small
of his back, one hind foot and one
fore foot are tied and moved out from
under him, and then the ropes are
pulled gently but firmly until he lies
down. -
An elephant sleeps in a peculiar
manner. Nearly all lie on their sides
with their trenks curled up, making
a peculiar hissing noise at regular
intervals, something like the sound
of steam issuing from a kettle. The
huge beast is not a sound sleeper. He
does not take much notice of his keep
er prowling around in the night, but
should anything strange or unusual
take place, two small, red lights ap
pear in the elephant's head and the
animal is wide awake. At the first
sign of danger he trumpets shrilly. In
the herd of elephants with the Al G.
Barnes Circus there are two more
than 100 years old.
FORUM 0FTI1E PEOPLE
STREET CLEANING
Morning Enterprise:
To the Editor: As the subject of
a clean city is now being agitated,
I would like to give you and the pub
lice the opinion of one, who has the
health and welfare of this city at
heart. -
I do not believe there is half as
much danger of disease to our citizens
from the little refuse that collects in
the back yards of residences, as there
is from the filth that arises on our
Main street, fanned into a cloud by
the cars rushing along at a fifteen
mile clip, and the automobiles making
twenty miles an hour. The way in
which Main street is swept is a
farce, if the street committee would
take the trouble to walk along the
Main -street early in the morning dur
ing a dry time, they would see how
nicely the topdressing has been swept
up, and the bulk of filth nicely pulver
ized, ready to be lifted into a cloud
by the first car. The money that is
paid out for night sweeping is money
thrown away, so far as any benefit
tc the city is concerned. The sweep
er cannot see the filth, in the center
of the blocks. The proper time to
sweep streets, is the day time when
a man can see the filth. If the city
would adopt the plan of day sweep
ing, and have the man, or men, com
mence at seven or eight o'clock in
the morning and work all day, and
PUSH THEIR BROOM, (not pull it,)
and work back and forth, and take
up all dropping, we would soon have
a clean Main street, and one that
would be kept clean, and again as
regards sprinkling with the hose, we
are all taxed $2 a year for sprinkling
which is entirely useless for the rea
son that while merchants sprinkle in
front of their stores to protect their
goods, the residence people let the
street go dry, so that the cars sweep
the dust along for three of four weeks,
filling stores and houses, with disease
breeding filth.
Respectfully yours,
H. P. T.
The Past as a Lesson,
The past, even our past, is nothing,
except as we. quickened by its ex
amples, instructed by its experience,
warned by its voices, assisted by its
accumulated instrumentality, shall re
produce it in the life of today. Its
once busy existence, various sensa
tions, fiery trials. deaT bought tri
umphs; Its dynasty of heroes, all its
pulses of joy and niijiiHi rnd hop
and fear and. love naU pr.;ise. are wit!',
the years beyond the flucri. ."T!u sleep
Ing and the dead are but sis pictures."
Yet,'gazing on these lon.u- ;m'l intently
and often, we may pass into the like
ness of- the departed may emulate
their labors and partake of their Im
mortality. Rufus Choate.
Ancient Nursing Bottles.
According to recent discoveries it ap
pears that nursing bottles were used
even iu prehistoric times. This is true
at least for the age of polished stone,
inasmuch as a Fre'uch archaeologist.
M. Nicaise. when exploring a neolithic
funerary deposit, found a small clay
nursing bottlt. and this was quite in
tact. This is not the only specimen
of the kind which comes from the early
ages. Among others are the speci
mens found In 'the Gaulish burial
places of Joncherv aiid more recently
in the Gal!-i:i:!iiaii .-n-ei'a of Taris.
This latter relic of anient babyhood
was uucovore.l with::! a i-omparatively
