The draw span was sweeping toward the help loss craft, threatening It with destruc tion, but th ongincor managed to stop It Jtast before It reached the Star.. It was a close call. Tho draw was opon nine minutes boforc It could be closed, through no fault of the engineer. Nevjir Appeared in Vaudeville. "The ptatomcnt that my wife has ap peared In vaudeville is absurd, said F. H KJIbottrne. of Seattle, yesterday. "She ver has appeared In vaudeville in Port land or in any other city. My wife and I were married October S, 1901, In Victoria, and we have been living in Seattle ever sumo. Tho purpose of our visit to Port land and our second marriage ceremony was simply to clear away any possible doubt as to the legality of our first mar riage.

TWENTY THOUSAND ACRES Recommendation Is Made to the Government to Purchase Tract Owned by Maxwell Land & Irrigation Co. "There has been under consideration by the Reclamation Service a project for the purpose of Irrigating- about 20,000 acres of land bordering- upon the Columbia River immediately east of the Umatilla River, including the towns of Umatfiia and Hermlston," said D. C. Honny, supervising- engineer of Oregon and Washington yesterday. "It is universally admitted that these lands, if put undor full Summer irriga tion, will permit of Intense farming and will be of high value. The. land is rolling in character and easily drained, and it Is believed will surpass the Hood River district in fertility and pro ductiveness. The transportation facili ties are unsurpassed, as the lanJs front upon the Columbia River and .as tho two main lines of the O. R. & X. to Spokane and Chicago respectively, pass through the tract. No Stfrlous Difficulties. "There are no serious difficulties of construction to be overcome, and tho entire project can be constructed and all the lands be put under irrigation probably within 12 months" from the time construction starts. "The obstacles that have "stood In the way of the Immediate construction of this project are that the large pro portion of the. lands, under i.t are in private ownership. A considerable por tion of the lands are owned by the Maxwell Land -& -Irrigation Company who have construoted' during tholajt two S'ears an- irrigation- canal for the use of flood water from the Uma tilla River, the Summer water -having beon previously appropriated. Must Own Lands. "It wns essential to the success of a Governmont project that this com pany agree to the sale of its lands under tho reclamation act, and nego tiations have for some time back been in progress between the executive com mittee of this company and officers of the Reclamation Service. A proposi tion has now been received by the Re clamation Service, which has been for warded to Washington with favorable recommendation of the supervising en gineer. Surveys are being pushed and it now remains with other excess land holders to signify their willingness to dispose of excess lands to comply with the requirements of the rcalamatlon act and to remove the last obstacles standing In the way. If agreements to this effect are obtained, a board of en gineers will be Immediately convened to pass upon this project. The location of the lands and their high character and productiveness render this project of the greatest Importance to the com mercial Intercuts of Portland, which city would be Its natural and nearest market."

Always a- pretty play, "Sweet Clover came back to Portland lart4 night, pret tier and sweeter than ever. Heretofore the piece hag always been seen at the Marquam and Its presence at the Empire Is something of an Innovation. It Is prob ably the best attraction ever seen nt that house. Otis B. Thayer, who has been identified with the play from the first, is itlll the Jerome Holcombe and Is doing the best work of "his career this season. Thayer created the role and lovep It as he loves his wood nymph daughter In the play. He fairly revelB in the part of the likeable old farmer. As last reason, Gertrude Bondhlll is the Lois, which Adelade Thurston did so beautifully in the original company. MIt Bondhlll Is developing Into an actress'of unquestioned merit Her performance last night was much more finished than" that given by her a year ago. Sbe might better her work still more by playing Lois more an a flesh and blood young woman and less as an angel child. She makes the girl supernaturally good and Innocent. The Job Mason of Robe'rl Robzon is good character acting and Janet London' is quite acceptable as the ancient spinster although one -fia-dly misses the lamented Clara Tapsford. 'whose treatment of the part Is remembered with great pleasure. Miss Taprford's untimely death in Chi cago a short time ago robbed the stare of. a splendid woman and a very capable actress.

Probably no one musician has done more for the development of music In thin country than Harold Bauer, the planLst, who Is soon to be heard here, October 1L Though a comparatively young man. his famo as an artist of the very first rank has long been establish ed, and his American tours, of which the present one is the fourth, have served to tnake him known from one end of the country to the others. Bauer came to this country with a reputation already secured in Europe, "but It was solely upon his merits that he was accepted. The pianists are Indeed few who could tour America four times In six years, and the fact that Bauer's popularity has mater ially increased with each successive visit is not only a compliment to his genius, but a sign that musical appreciation in the united States Is surely and steadily .advancing.
