Through the efforts of the Waverly-Rlchmond Im provement Association nearly all the streets not now open between East Twenty-sixth and Forty-first and Dlvlislqn and Ellsworth, are to be opened and sev eral are to be Improved. - East Twenty eighth, East Thirty-fourth, East Thirty second, East Twenty-ninth. East Thirty- third, East Thirty-fifth, East Thirty-ninth, East Th'irty-fifth and East Twenty-seventh streets are all to be opened. Clinton street is to be opened from the westerly line of Ravenswood to East Thirty-seventh street. On all these streets J. S. Foss, E. O. Minor and W. W. Terry were appointed viewers. It Is proposed to im prove Clinton and Ellsworth streets be tween East Twenty-sixth and East Forty first, the city limits. Eight-inch water mains will be laid on Ellsworth and Clinton streets before they are improved. The committee from the Push Club held many conferences with the Water Com mittee about these mains, and succeeded in getting them ordered. Gas mains also are to be extended into that district. The Push Club haB so much business on hand that it has not yet voted Itself a vacation, and is still meeting twice a month. A. R. Joy is the president. Another Street Needed. While the improvement of Caywood street connect ing; Milwaukie with East Eighth streets, will help to divert the heavy travel on Milwaukie street from the south, nothing short of another street parallel with Mil waukie will give permanent relief. It is thought that "East Seventeenth street opened and improved to Midway would be the logical way to provide more facilities for that end of the city. At Midway a street could be opened on the west side of Milwaukie avenue to Sellwood. It would have to be forced through some acreage ground that now intervenes, but this tract must give way sooner or later. It Is conceded that another street must be opened and Improved south parallel with Milwaukie as soon as it can be done. Milwaukie street Is occupied with double streetcar tracks. Contract for College Botldiko. A city permit has been issued for the erec tion of the Concordia College building on a five-acre tract bounded by East Twenty seventh, Twenty-ninth, Riggin and Iceland Btreets, near Woodlawn.

This first struc ture Is but one wing of the building that will be finally erected on this ground. The part to be built now will accom modate 50 students. It will be a school In which students' will be prepared for any of the professions, and the church proposes that it shall be first-class. It will draw students from Oregon and Washington.

Foreman Jenkins, Not the Superin tendent of Street Cl'anttvz De partment, Accused by Men. Alex Donaldson, superintendent of the street-cleaning department was yester day fully exonerated of all charges of graft in connection with that department. Mayor Lane and C. A. Coggswell, chair man of the street committee of the execu tive board, said that no charges of any kind had been preferred against Superin tendent Donaldson whom they- regard as one of the most- honorable and faithful employes in the citys service. "Several days ago some of the men employed In the street-cleaning depart ment called at my office and asked If they might prefer charges against the management of that department," said Mayor Lane yesterday. "I told them that If they had any charges to make they had the right to prefer them. They then said Foreman Jenkins, of that de partment, had been training a horse dur ing the city's time, besides keeping the animal at the city's stable at the expense of the city. Jenkins was also charged with selling the street sweepings but at no time during the interview was Superin tendent Donaldson's name mentioned.

When before the committee Monday af ternoon the attorney who has been en gaged to represent Jenkins accusers said he had not har time to Investigate the charges and until he had done so would nqt decide whether or not any charges would be filed.

Ruins a Charred Corpse Babe in Arms Is . Saved. , Mrs.. Thomas Ryan, 33 years of age, residing at Reservoir Park, between Kern Park and Powell Valley, was fatally burned by on explosion' of kerosene yester day afternoon at 5 o'clock, and In the fire which later consumed the house, Lester, her 3-year-old son was burned to death. Through the heroism of 11-year-old Ar chie Conley, who resides in the neigh borhood, Mrs. Ryan's baby, 7 months old, was saved from death in the flames. Mrs. Ryan was In haste to prepare the evening meal and attempted to rekindle the fire with kerosene. There were some live coals In the stove and the explosion which resulted threw biasing oil over the unfortunate woman. Mrs. Ryan ran out doors and was seen by Mrs. LucTnda Con ley, who is a near neighbor. Mrs. Conley rushed to Mrs. Ryan's assistance with a blanket. She was not able to extinguish the flames by this means and poured a tubful of water over the woman. Mrs. Ryan was horribly burned and no hope is held out for her recovery by her physi cians, Drs. Briggs and Bartell. Mr. Ryan, who arrived on the scene at 6:30 o'clock, collapsed whan he learned the terrible tragedy that had occurred In his family. He is a shoemaker. Archie Conley, who rushed into the burning house and saved the baby, was slightly burned. Neighbors made a desperate fight to save the little home in which the family lived, but there was no means at hand, and the house, with all Its contents, burned to the ground. The place is so far removed from the city limits that the Portland firemen could lend no aid. After the house was in ruins, and the excitement somewhat calmed down, it was discovered to the horror of all those assembled that the little boy had not been taken from the house. His charred remains were , found by searchers after the flames were extinguished. Coroner Finley was notified and took charge of the body. In the renewed excitement that followed neighbors telephoned" for ambulances, and the Red Cross ambulance from the Fash ion stables 'and the ambulance from the Holman Undertaking establishment re sponded. It was a long drive. At last the Holman ambulance found the house and took Mrs. Ryan to St. Vincent's Hos pital. There it was stated at a late hour that she has no chance for recovery. She was burned from head to feet, and her death seems only a matter of a few hours at most. Neighbors took charge of the two Ryan children who were saved from GOOD PIANOS Low, Prices!

LITTLE STORIES OF THE BEEF TRUST It was soma time In the first part of January, this year, when the proprietor of one of the largest markets In the city came running breathlessly to us. "Oh, Smith," crlett ha. "the Beef Trust Is going to open up another market right on the corner, and they say they'll open up a door right next to your door. For heaven's sake Smith, sell out to the Trust while they are ready to buy you, or they'll make you lose the last dollar you've got." Let them try It," replied Smith, with a smile. "I don't get 'fraid, nor I don't sell out" Well, the market has been opened, and, as the Irishman says, "this was the l&t camel on the straw's back," and It didn't work. The market bears the trade-mark of the Beef Trust. It swings the sign of Government In spection and uses the cull stuff that nobody else wants. Other markets throughout the city can send - their left-overs and undesirable pieces of meat to this market and they are sold to the public as Government Inspected meats. It is the Trust that roars and screams and howls and bribes for Government Inspection, and never un der any circumstances allows Its retail markets to accept It. It is In the better class of markets probably In your nearest trading place that you are likely to get the starved-out, frozen roasts and steaks from the East. EAT SMITH'S MEATS.
