To Co-operate With Travelers' Aid The women of Centenary Methodist Epis copal Church have organized the Cente nary Methodist Women's Bureau, -which will co-operate with the Travelers' Aid Society, and see that many visitors to Portland during- the Fair are provided with comfortable quarters in Christian and respectable homes at reasonable rates in East Portland. Mrs. J. D. Lee. 29 East Fifteenth street North, and Mrs. F. Coz ing, 29 East Fourteenth street, are in charge. At the latter place are located the headquarters of the bureau, and the telephone number Is East 1451. Repre sentatives of the bureau say that they can provide quarters In East Portland homes for 200 or 300 people. It will be a sort of information bureau, and strangers coming to Portland will be given infor mation and told where they can find ac commodations in Christian homes. Brooklyn Sewer Contract to Be Let. It is announced that the contract for the long-talked-of Brooklyn sewer will be let lh the near future. Engineer AVanzer is getting out the specifications and estimates of the cost of this big sewer. The plans have been finished for this, the largest sewer in the city, and one that will cost the most money. But covering about 2500 acres, the cost to the Individual lot-owner will not be very large. The entire cost of the Brooklyn conduit has been variously estimated from $150,000 to $200,000. South of Division street there are -no sewers, and It Is the. territory southward that the sewer will drain. Agitation for this sewer was started 20 years ago and has been kept up ever since. Rudolph Herring, a Chicago (engineer, prepared general plans for this and other East Side sewers for the old East Portland City. Files Written Objection. Roswell B. Lamson, the attorney, as owner of lot 1 . and the north half of lot 2, block 9, yes terday filed a written objection with the City Council to the proposed assessment for the Improvement of Flrsf street, on the ground that a complete improvement of said street has not been made by the Portland Consolidated Railroad Company and Oregon Water Power & Railway Com pany, through failure to improve the por tion of the street covered by their tracks. He asks that the corporations be com pelled to do so at once. It Is probable other remonstrances of like character will be filed by property-owners. Christian Endeavor Will Help. A meeting of the executive committee of the Christian Endeavor Societies, held In the Forbes Presbyterian Church last evening, decided to assist in. the protection of girls and others who come to Portland unpro tected during the Fair.

Charles Cutter, i Amateurs as a rule fight shy of attempt ing anything so exacting and dramatic as Bizet's "Carmen," but selections from that opera formed part of the programme for a pupils' recital under the direction of W. H. Boyer, at the Marquam last night, and were creditably rendered. The the ater was crowded, and late comers had to be content with standing room. Mr. Boyer was the Don Jose, excepting that the Toreador song, excellently sung, was given by Stuart McGuire, baritone. Mr. Boyer and Misses Lytle and Garret may be singled out for good work, and were ably helped by the chorus. Nobody wore costume, and no special scenery was used, but music was supplied by an or chestra of 14 pieces, while the piano ac companiste was Miss McGuire. All the young vocalists did well. The orchestra leader. Milton C. Smith, was welcomed back to Portland last night by his many friends, and his work was marked by fine ability.

Ysaye. the great violinist, who will ap pear In Portland on May 30. has the most wonderful record on drawing audiences of any artist or company or performance or In fact any class of entertainment. Up to date he has played about 40 perform ances in America, appearing in the larg est cities and also some of the smaller ones. This artist's price exceeds that of even a grand opera prima donna, and the enormous guarantee must be forthcom ing Irrespective 0f the site of the city; but strange to relate, he appeared In lit tle Norwich. Conn., a few weeks ago. and more than 600 people attended 'his concert. Norwich has -a population of 23.000. One out of every 42 of the popula tion attended the performance. The re ceipts were between $1300 and $1400 for this performance. A few of the public spirited men made up the balance of the guarantee.

Well-Known Business Man Speaks In High Praise of Exploitation of Exposition. y After an absence of nearly two months, Mr. Hy Eilcrs, the head of the piano institutions bearing his name, haa returned to Portland. While In Boston. Mr. Ellers attended the Na tional convention of Chlckerlng deal ers, which meets annually at the old Chlckerlng factory. Representatives from every section of the United States, to the number of 52, were present, and good care was taken by him while there to supply each one liberally with Lewis and Clark Centennial literature. Including the beautiful folders and pamphlets of Oregon that were gotten, up some time ago by the O. R. & N., which literature he was able'to secure at the New York offices". "If Ihc Pacific Coast is growing and developing, the same, must be said of New York City," said Mr. Ellers. "The Pennsylvania Railroad has .bought up, and Is razing to the ground, blocks and blocks of houses for its terminal sta tions for which enterprise something like $50,000,000 has been appropriated. The Sub-way construction, which, by the way. has certainly solved to an enormous extent, the rapid-transit question for New York City, and the extensions now planned for the Sub-Way system are going to consume a great deal more capital, -than will be required to complete the Panama Canal. "Immigration to the United States Is something wonderful. Think of 20, yes1 25,000 immigrants being landed in a single day by the steamship lines in New York City, and the way Uncle Sam looks after these arrivals, as to their fitness to eventually become citi zens of the United States. . It ls truly wonderful. The inspection nbw-a-days goes into the minutest details. The entire work of landing, and the Inspec tion of Immigrants is conducted under the most sanitary conditions. It is well worth a day's time to visit and study the work of the Immigration Commis sion in New York City." Outside of New York, places in New Jersey, also Pennsylvania. Including the City of Philadelphia, and also Bal timore and Washington, were visited by Mr. Ellers. then Cincinnati, O.. La Porte, Ind.; New Castle, Ind.; Rock ford, III.: Chicago, and his old home town, Milwaukee. "Everywhere," said Mr. Eilers, "the topic of conversation that Eastern people bring up with a Western man. Is our Lewis and Clark Exposition. The Fair has aroused un paralleled interest, and the success of the undertaking Is certainly assured. The advertising end of the Lewis and Clark Exposition has been beautifully handled, so far as one Is able to judge from 'the numerous inquirers about Portland, its facilities to take care of people, and the Exposition generally, that one encounters. "As I was registering at the Audi torium Annex in Chicago, a gentleman and his wife (who were total strangers to me), who had 'seen that I was from Portland, Immediately cmiic up and stated that they were from Virginia touring the United tSates. and had been looking for some one to give them some definite information about the Pacific Northwest,, and particularly my town of Portland and Its Fair.. It Is needless to say that they were sup plied with full information and will bo out here to spend quite a portion of the Summer. "Of course, the great crowds of peo ple will come from California where Portland and the Lewis and Clark Exposition and the beauty of Portland's Summer climate have been quite exten sively exploited. It sems to mo that a little further advertising down that way would result in the entire country of the Sacramento Valley, south of Stockton and as far east as the Teha chapl becoming literally deserted by people going to Portland. There Is going to be ono Important difference between the visitors to the Portland Fair and the visitors to the other Fairs, for where the average Exposition vis itor tb the Eastern propositions figured on remaining but a few days, you will find that cntiro families will come to Portland prepared to spend a vacation season, not a week, but several weeks, a month. This, of course, will mean that ample housing facilities must be provided. I am very much pleased. Indeed," continued Mr. Ellers, " at the statement Issued this morning over the signature of our honorable Mayor and the president of the Exposition as to Portland's facilities in this direction, and I hope that this statement will be given the widest possible publicity through the press channels, for it ef fectively answer the most frequently asked inquiries that arc made In regard to our Fair. People knew that we will have something of great interest and value to show them. They know, also, that they will enjoy a climate that answers the requirements of the Ideal Summer resort, so the only point that remains to be demonstrated Is that Portland Is amply prepared to accom modate within her gates all who will visit her after the first of next month. ADVANCE SALE FOR DUNX. Foremost of Modern War Corre spondents at Marquam May 29.

REALTY CONTINUES ACTIVE Charles Sweeny Makes Offer for Rosenblatt Property. In the effort to secure possession of more valuable down.-town business prop erty. Charles Sweeney, of Spokane, has offered Gustave Rosenblatt $100,(00. for his lot on the cast side of Fourth street, be tween Washington and Alder, Immediate ly adjoining the Washington building, which was purchased recently by Mr. Sweeny from Edward Holman and Will lam FHedner. Mr. Rosenblatt holds his property at a slightly higher figure than that offered by the Spokane millionaire, though It .is expected that a compromise will be reached. The lot in question tis the site of a brick building used by Lipman, Wolfe & Co. as an annex. This building Is connected with the Dekum building, which Is also owned by Mr. Sweeny, and It seems probable that he desires to secure possession of the entire half block on the south side of Washington street, between Third and Fourth, of which he now owns three fourths. It is understood that Mr. Rosenblatt is quite willing to sell, but Is holding out for $123,000. D. A. .Morris has sold to the Security Savings & Trust Company three vaeant lots at Qulncy and Halsey streets for $11,000.
