Reai.tt Foard Meets Tonicht. There
will he a meeting tonight of the members
of the Portland Realty Board In the
rooms of the Board of Trade for the
purpose of perfecting the organiiation of
the Portland Real Rstate Exchange. The
preliminaries connected with the pre
posed organizstion have been attended to
by the committee selected for that pur
pose and the constitution and bylaws
have been gone over until they are con
sidered thoroughly satisfactory. No
permanent organization has yet been
effected, although a majority of the
Realty Board has expressed Itself in favor
of it. It ta believed that sales can be
made more promptly by the exchange
than by the present process of individual
effort. Dealers who have had experience
with exchanges In other cities think well
uf the plan.
Fearb Drt Movement. John B. Miller,
a Seattle capitalist, who has been here
for the past three weeks getting plans
prepared and estimates on a three-story
brick building he contemplated erecting
on union avenue, between Rest Burnside
and East Oonch streets, has returned to
Seattle without giving orders for
the building to proceed. The estl
mates were very favorable, close to
$2i000, and everything was satisfactory
except that Mr. Miller was discouraged
over the result of the election. He fears
that the Edst Side will go dry at the
coming election and does not want to put
up a building which he says will stay
empty on his hands. Mr. Miller said he
will Invest his money In Seattle.

SJRTHODIST MlNtSTTRS MEET- At the
meeting yeeterdsy of the Methodist Min
isterial Association much of the sessfon
mi devoted to a discussion of Dr. D. I.
Radcr's paper entitled: "What is the
Matter With the Episcopacy" Dr. Radr
expressed the opinion that there were
three distinct conditions threatening the
Episcopacy and advocated Bishop Joseph
B. Berry's idea that conferences should
be open and above board and that min
isters should know to what pastorate
they wore likely to be called, in order
that they could prepare to make the
transfer. Dr. Rader also favored a mutual
exchange of confidences between bishop
and ministers and opposed aristocracy
and "Star Chamber' proceedings on the
part of bishops. He also expressed the
belief that bishops should not have too
great authority, that they were servants
not rulers. Dr. Rader's views were con
curred in by all the members present
with the exception of Dr. C. B. Ctlne and
Rev. N. A. Baker. Dr. Cline was strong
ly in favor of the old-time methods In
church administration and declared that
Dr. Rader's paper savored strongly of
Congregationalism.

CLACKAMAS COrXTY FARMERS
10 NOT OBEY LAW.
Fruit Cnmmlsstoner Rcid An
nounces Intention to Begin Cru
sade Against Infected Trees.
OREGON CITY, Or.. ADrtl 20. (Spe
cial.) J. H. Reld, of Milwaukie. Fruit
Commissioner for the First Oregon Dis
trict, this afternoon announced his In
tention of cleaning up the pest-afflicted
orchards of Clackamas County, along the
tracks of the Oregon Water Power
Railway Company and the Southern Pa
cltio Company, and tomorrow will hold a
conference with County Fruit Inspector
A. J. Lewis and District Attorney Gil
bert L. Hedges, for the purpose of care
fully laying plans to force the owners
of diseased orchards to either spray their
trees or cut them down.
"Marion and Yamhill Counties have
obeyed the law," said Mr. Reld, "and it
Is up to Clackamas to do the same. It is
a strong and forceful argument that hun
dreds and perhaps thousands of home
seekers come from the East through Cal.
lfornla. and. after traveling through the
southern portion of Oregon and then
through Lane. Linn and Marion Counties,
come to Clackamas and here are con
fronted by the spectacle of scale-infested
trees, hundreds of acres of them, ab
solutely of no value to the owners or to
any one else.
"Now. I live in Clackamas County, and
I want to see it cleaned up so that we
can take a pride in our trees, that grow
in as fine a fruit land as there is in the
whole state. We have had test cases,
one of them in Clackamas County, and
we know Just how far we can go. Our
first step is to serve notice on the property-owners
to spray, and give them 15
days to comply with the law. If, at the
end of that time, they neglect or refuse
to spray properly, we will give them
their choice between allowing us to spray
their trees, at their expense, or cutting
down the orchard. .
"I would advise owners of trees that
are no longer useful to cut them down
to within 18 inches or two feet of the
ground and then graft such an apple as
the Yellow Newtown. Then In a few
years they will have a fine orchard."

BY A STHVR A. GREENS.
AFTER having watched the San Fran
cisco Opera Company In all its work
since its first appearance here, a year
ago, I am prepared to say that Its per
formance of "The Belle of New York" is
the best thing It has done. A week's run
of this always welcome musical comedy
was Inaugurated last night and a thor
oughly pleased audience applauded to the
echo.
It would be a most flagrant case of
carrying coals to Newcastle for me to
detail the theme of "The Belle of New
York." It has come to be almost an
American classic. Almost as well might
I undertake to tell the story of "Rip Van
Winkle." In season and out. year after
year this merry melange of music and
Jest has been brought to the attention of
theatergoers for almost, if not quite, a
decade. Ichahod 3ronson, Immortalised
by the late lamented Dan Daly, ("of
course you could' ne-er be like us"), the
demur little Salvation Lassie (Edna May,
please write), the polite Lunatic, and all
the other old friends are as familiar as
the figures in the comic supplements.
The Jingltng airs, the very frou-frou of
the lingerie of the chorus girls are dis
tinctive in this piece and place it apart
among other frothy Casino successes.
The Healy forces do It very well. Indeed,
and no one will regret hsvlng spent the
time and toll of seeing it at the Msr-
quam this week. It is the closing week
of the company's engagement, by the
way.
Chief interest last night centered In the
local debut of Robert Lett, the new
comedian, and a good one he Is, with a
record to his credit. He plays the elder
Bronson according to the traditions,
which is the only correct way, so well
that the audience was en rapport with
him all the time he was on the stage.
Lett come as near living up to the
promise of his press agents as any of the
comedians and will, in this week, find
himself an out-and-otit Portland favorite,
The other big Individual hit of the per
formance is mado by that remarkably
talented little girl. Daphne Pollard. Her
F1FI is a joy forever. The remaining
principals acquit themselves right credit
ably, while the chorus. In a fine array of
new dresses, makes the ensemble all that
one could reasonably ask.
"The Belle of New York" continues
through the week.
Thelma" by the Allen
Company at Lyric
BY ARTHUR A. GREENE.
ADMIRERS of the Allen Stock Com
pany, and they are legion, empha
sised the theory that "Thelma" is the
most popular offering that organization
has ever given us. It is somewhat more
than a year since the former run of the
piece under the Alien auspices, and the
Lyric was crowded last night to celebrate
its revival. The individual members of
the company seem to find the cast of the
Corelll drama entirely congenial, and
those who remain of- the original com
pany, play their roles even better than
they did on the first occasion. The newer
arrivals fall into the spirit of the thing
very well, indeed, and so the performance
will probably be agreed upon as the best
the Lyric has presented during the sea
son. Verna Felton, in the title role, has cor
rect ideas of the Norse heroine and plays
the part consistently well and sincerely.

man, who goes a-yachting: to the Land

charming as the vivacious maid-servant,
and Mrs. Allen is acceptable as the old
hag. The production does the manage

There will be a matinee today.
At the VaudevHle Theaters
j Pantages.
POR scenic beauty and electrical ef
fects two acts on the bill at
Pantages Theater this week have not
been surpassed In local vaudeville, and,
but very seldom at any of the houses
of the -legit" In many months. The
all-star attraction is the Aerial Ballet
produced by the Nelllson troupe. This
act is really a sensation in many ways,
for one is treated to the sight of a
half dozen or more of exceedingly
pretty girls being wafted through the
air and apparently dancing among the
clouds. The electrical effects con
tributing variegated colors produce a
beautiful scene that must be seen to
be appreciated.
Aside from the aerial ballet, which
is the feature act. the programme is a
credit to the enterprise of the popular
Fourth-street amusement house. Lor
raine Buchanan and her capable com
pany present an amusing comedy
sketch , entitled "Women and Men,"
which furnishes plenty of hearty
laughs. The Sisters Carmen are ban
joists of more than passing ability.
Their rendition of the "aterry Widow
Wraltz" on the banjo is one of the hits
of the show. The girls were encored
repeatedly, and obliged until it became
apparent that they were occupying
too much of the time.
The two Lavails. in a chain-ladder,
combination-trapeze and seif-revolv-ing-bar
act. are gymnasts of consider
able merit and introduce several new
turns, aided by their specially built
apparatus. Jean Wilson sings "Good
Bye, Glory." in his usual clever man
ner, and Frank M. Clark delivers a
monologue that is pleasing because he
springs some new gags and Incidental
ly a few of the still popular old ones.
While the biograph pictures cannot
be styled as strictly ethical, for the
life of an outlaw is hardly educational
in a moral sense, they are most inter
esting:. The pictures give tha episodes.
In connection with the life and death
of Jesse James, the famous Missouri
bandit.
Grand.
THE Grand Theater, which is shortly
to change to the Orpheum ctrruit.
presents a bill this week which opened
to three capacity houses yesterday and
which will hardly be surpassed by the
forthcoming attractions. The programme
is pleasantly intermingled with musical
turns, comedy sketches, scrobatics and a
first-class dramatic sketch, each of
which is extremely pleasing.
The bill opens with Naomi Ethardo. a
well-formed woman, who performs some
exceedingly difficult feats In hand-balancing,
which act is a source of delight
to. those who hunger for the difficult or
dangerous. Wesson. Walters and Wes
son contribute an amusing sketch depict
ing scenes in hotel life.
The most appreciated act of the even
ing and one which portrays more than
passing dramatic ability is Leo Cooper
and company in the playlet. "The Price
of Power." The sketch deals with the
Incidents connected with a reform Gov
ernor who il up for re-election and the
wiles used by a woman to secure his
signature to a pardon for her husband,
who Is under sentence of death. Mr.
Cooper Is an actor of ability and the big
crowds witnessing his performance testi
fied to their appreciation by applauding
enthusiastlcaly.
The George Cohan farce comedy play
let. "Election .Bets." Is one of the fun
niest sketches -given In Portland vaude
ville theaters in months. The antics of
the loser in satisfying the demands of
hla creditors in freak bets Is ludicrous
in the extreme.
The two Roses, youpg women musi
cians, are not only pleasing to the eye.
but possess Instrumental talent of no
mean order. Connors and Aldert con
tribute a comedy turn. Interspersed with
eccentric dancing that takes well, while
the moving pictures are of the ususl fine
order. The Grand has a splendid hill.

E TO COAST By RAIL
FRENCH AUTO RACERS DRAW
LONG BOW IX INTERVIEWS.
Car in "Independent Race" Shipped
From St. Louis to Oregon
City in Boxcar.
OREGON CITY. Or.. April 20. (Spe
rial.) A dispatch from Seattle In this
morning's Oregonlan relative to the
automobile trip of Maurice Drelghe
and Max L. Hohmann, correspondents
of the Paris Journal, stating; that the
Werner machine is the only one to
have made the entire trip from New
York to Paris on its own wheels, has
disclosed the Information that the
French car came to the Coast In a box
car on Iron wheels Instead of Its own
wheels. The machine broke down at
Columbus, O., and wss shipped on a
flatcar to St. Louis and there trans
ferred to a boxcar, where It could
not be seen, and shipped direct from
St. Louis to Oregon City, arriving here
Saturday, April 4.
One of the Frenchmen was not so
discreet as he might have been and
talked rather Treely to an Oregon City
man, though he avowed stoutly to
newspaper men that he was simply
traveling about the country with a
moving picture outfit. The statement
that the men left New York February
11. one day in advance of the racers,
may be true, but they are deceiving the
public In attempting to convey the
belief that they crossed the continent
in the machine, which was probably
shipped from St. Louis to Oregon City
instead of Portland In the hope that
the ruse would escape detection.
Dreighe was emphatic In his state
ment that he was not In the interna
tional race, but It is understood that
he expects to reach Paris in advance
of the regularly entered machines ana
the advantage of sending his machine
from St. Louis to Oregon City in a
boxcar can be readily understood.
Drelghe and Hohmann came up from
Portland Thursday, April 9, paid the
freight on the automobile and, filling
the tank and cranKlng up tne Werner,
proceeded to Portland, where they told
a story of having encountered hard
driving In the sands of Eastern Ore

SPOKANE, Wash.. April 20. (Spe

Limited paaaenger train which left
Spokane Sunday morning at 10:40, was
derailed early yesterday morning near
Summit, Mont., the accident resulting
In the destruction of $20,000 worth of
equipment and the slight injury of
member of the train crew and several
passengers.
The wreck was caused by what rail
road men call "undersround seepage,"
meaning- that the roadbed was washed
out from under the track by springs.
Striking; the soft spot, the engine went
off the track, taking with it the mail
car, combination baggage and express
car and two day coaches. The derailed
