A. H. Richmond. engineer for the Port
land Railway, Light & Power Company,
assured the property owners that the
management of the street railway svstom
wo.tld co-operate with them in accom

would do everything In Its power to exne
dite the project. Others to approve the
driveway in short addrcsVes were M. O.
rianncm. John P. Carroll. I. T.ang. E. U
i nomp.ion and George C. Flanders. It
was decided to retain the services of L.
A. McNary. ex-City Attorney, as leaal
counsel, and at today's adjourned meet
ing or the City Council Mr. M -Nary will
present ,the first resolution Inc'dent to
proceeding legally with the dosited im

During the evening the Portland Heights
Improvement Association was reorganized
with the following officers: Prcsidfnr, I.
l-ang; vice-president. J. C Ainswor'tii;
e,-rctary-treasurcr. fl U Thompson. Tha
following committee was appointed from
the association to have charge of .all pro
ceedings preliminary to the construction
of the driveway: I. I-ang. J. C. Alns
worth. H. C. Campbell, B. L. Thompson
and J. F. Hart.
Plan for Boulevard.
The plans under consideration were pre
pared by Olmsted Brothers, landscape
artists of Brookllne. Mass.. and call for
a boulevard not less than fio feet In width.
The Improvement will necessitate tl,e
relaying of the streetcar tracks for the
entire course of the driveway, which will
be bounded by reinforced concrete walls,
one to retain the embankment and the
other to support the roadway as con
structed. Adjoining the Inside wall jt Is
proposed to have a six-foot walk for per
sons afoot. The next 24 feet will be de
voted to a double streetcar track vhi--h
will be separated from the 2t!-foot drive
way proper by a curb, reserving the :wo
spaces Independent of each other for the
purposes for which they are Intci.ded.
tm the outer side of the driveway win be
another curb and a promenade walk
about nine feet In width, overlooking the
ity. An effort will also be made to have
the roadbed of the street railway system
turfed and kept green all the year.
The advocates of the boulevard system
will also recommend the purchase of a
considerable area of lund on the ncr;b
si-le of Vista avenue, between the end of
the Ford Street bridfe and Terrace liie.
"therwise known as Montgomery Drive.
The idea of acqulrlim tills land is to de
vote It to park purposes and preserve its
scenic beauty. It will be proposed that
the expense of the driveway be appor
tioned among the owners of the property
that will be benefited directly.
Will Afford Grand View.

YOUNG GIRL TAKES AGIO
BESSIE PALMEU CHARGE OF
AID SOCIETY.
riaocd in Good Home, Slie Tires of
HcMmint, but Is Saved
From Suicide.
Tired of living- snd disappointed because
she was not permitted to keep an ensrage-
ment with some young people. Bossie
Pnlmor. a fi-year-old charge of the Boys
and Otrls' Aid Society, who had been
placed in the home of a well-to-do fam
ily in Irvtngton. attempted suicide by
taking carbolic acid Monday nlpht while
in a hysterical fit. The girl, who was
given into the care of this family about
six months aso. was regarded as having
obtained an exceptionally good home, but
this is now forfeited, as the head- of the
family refuses to receive her in the house
again.
rhe bottle containing the poison that
the girl attempted to swallow, was found
by her in a closet. She had asked per
mission to go out after supper to join
some companions and soon after it had
been denied, the people in the house were
aroused by a commotion in this closet
where they found the girl with her lips
burned by the eid. The family tele
phoned to W. T. Gardner, superintendent
of the society, who took the girl to the
hospital. She is now very penitent and
for some time to come will be confined to
tha home of the society.
Miss ralmer was committed to the home
by the Juvenile Court one year ago. Her
father and mother live In Union County,
and were adjudged unfit persons to be
entrusted with her care. Since taken
away from her mother she is said to have
been most unhappy, and during the past
year in the society home has been treated
twice by a physician for hysteria. Once
when out with other gfrls of the society
for an outing in the City Park, she fell
down and refused to move. She had to
be carried back to the home. The at
tempt on her life is regarded at the so
ciety as a "fake." The officials there
seem to be of the'opinion that' it was an
effort of the girl to enlist the sympathy
of the family and through this means
gain her own way. '

RIO JANEIRO. April 8. Serious rioting
broke out yesterday in the City of Campos

tion of the people and last evening they
descended upon the railroad property and
set fire to two stations. 30 cars and sev
eral warehouses.
When this had been accomplished they
advanced to the railroad bridge over the
Parahiba River, which they destroyed.
