Remarkable Automobile Tim. C. M.
Menzies has broken the record between
Portland and Government Camp, at the
font of Mount Hood, making the run
from the Rurnside -street bridge to the
Mountain House, over SO miles. In three
hours flat one day las week. He first
made the run to Rhododendron Tavern
In C:15 ar.d from there to Government
Camp he made the run In 45 minutes. Be
tween Portland and Sandy the time was
45 minutes and the distance IS miles. But
th.e time made between Rhododendron
Tavern and Government Camp is con
s:dered most remarkable, owing to the
sand and steep grades that must be over
come, and the distance Is ten miles. Mr.
Menxlfj drove the car and had as pas
sengers Joe H. Lambert. George H.
Stewart' and Donald Meyers, and the
time was carefully noted so t lie re could
be no mistake. Charles Wright, of the
Oregon Hotel, made the run to Rhodo
dendron Tavern In two hours and ten
minutes, beating Mr. Menzies by five
minute, but did not undertake to go
to Government Camp. The .Mount Hood

New Water Office September 1. The
new East Side water office at the south
west corner of East Sixth, Alder and
East Seventh street, will be occupied
and opened to the public by tomorrow.
September 1. Most of the furniture has
been movod and. the rest will be moved
today, so that East Side water consum
ers will pay their water charges in the
new ofllee beginning tomorrow. The
building was completed some time ago,
but only recently was the furniture com
pleted. The structure is a two-story
building covering 100x50 feet. For offices
of the water collector the lower floor
will be- used. There is ample room for
the public. A small space Is reserved at
the west end of the building for the
supply wagon and a horse. ( Ow ing to
the great amount of repair work all over
the East Side provision for the supply
wagon was considered necessary. Prac
tically the entire second story will be
used for storing supplies. The building
is well lighted and well ventilated. It Is
central to all the people of East Port
land. Pastor Sats Nothino of Leaving. If
Rev. Andrew J. Montgomery, paator of
the Third Presbyterian Church, has ac
cepted the call to the Rf-cond Presby
terian Church, or Oak Park Church, of
Chicago, he carefully concealed his in
tentions last Tuesday when an Orego
nlan reporter held an interview with
him at his" camp at the foot of Mount
Hood. Mr. Montgomery Is an enthusi
astic botanist and student of the moun
tains, and the talk was confined entirely
to those subjects, and he said nothing
about accepting the second call to the
Chicago church. His vacation, however.
Is drawing to a close. He .will break
camp today and with his family will re
turn to Portland by Thursday or Fri
day. Rev. Henry Marcotte. of Westmin
ister Presbyterian Church, and Mrs.
Marcotte. arrived at Government Camp
from Crater Lake last week and - have

several days. Rev. H. H. Pratt, . of the

within a stone's throw.

stnrv brick structure, and will cover the
entire half block on the north side, of
Irving street, between Fifth and bixtn
ntreets. It will be used for show-rooms

metal office and store fittings. At pres
ent this half-block site, which adjoins
the building of the Lutke Manufacturing
ComDany is unimproved, buildings wnicn

New Bills Open at the
Vaudeville Houses
Orpheum.
BY ARTHUR A. GFEENE.
THE fact that the best playwrlting
talent Is turning its attention to
ward the writing of vaudeville Bketches
Is well demonstrated in the remarkable
little melodrama called Circumstantial
Evidence," which serves as the piece de
resistance on tho Orpheum stage this
week. It is Interpreted by 12 men, the
absence of women being a somewhat re
freshing novelty. The scene is a jury
.room with the 12 men on whom the fate
of a man charged with murder depends.
They have been out a day and a night
and the vote stands 11 for conviction
and one for acquittal. The Juryman who
Is holding out for acquittal refuses to
agree In spite of the taunts and brow
beating of his associates. An element
of comedy is Introduced In the efforts
mada by the 11 to pass the time, the
member who Is hanging the verdict re
maining moodily by himself. It de
velops that his wife Is lying at the point
of death, but. In spite of his anxiety to
be at her bedside, he refuses to make the
vote unanimous. Finally word Is brought
him that she has died during his absence
and the dissenter confesses that he com
mitted the crime but had allowed another
to be placed In Jeopardy for fear of the
effect of his disgrace on the Invalid wife.
Although somewhat- improbable, the
sketch is intense with human interest
and sounds an entirely new note. Fred
erick Webber, who plays the guilty Juror,
handles the role capably, in spite of a
tendency toward etaginess. It develops
that some Of the men have first-class
singing voices through rendition of old
ballads and three or four comedians of
parts relieve the grewsomeness of the
piece.
Ed Wynn and his partner, Al Lee. in
their unique comedy turn. "The Billlken
Freshman," are enthusiastically received
and their diverting nonsense is sufficient
ly funny to merit the many recalls re
ceived. Mr. Wynn Is one of the few
fun makers of the Cohan type who are
calculated to interest intelligent people
and he has the "Yankee Doodle Boy"
beaten to an attenuated whisper.
The musical Johnsons do a stereo
typed xylophone turn and please every
body, as is the custom of xylophone acts.
The public seems never to grow tired of
that particular form of music and these
people are artists in spite of the fact
that they will insist on giving us "Poet
and Peasant." However, no xylophone
act would be legal Vithout that or "W 11
liam Tell."
Crouch and "Welch do a busy few min
utes of dancing and knockabout humor
satisfactorily. Charles Montrell, the Jug
gler, owes a lot to the blackface actor
who' assists him and so his act is one of
the favorites. Harry Richards and his
company appear in a piece called "Love
a la Mode." why, no one knows, and
Beth Stone also dances along.
Grand.
7V T the Grand this week the headline
i act, a "dramalette" called "Pals,
is a genuine thrill producer. The play
letfe begins in a comedy vein and ter
minates in a rough and tumble fight of
a virulent form. The sketch deals with
two chums enamored of the same .girl,
the Jealousy bee being the excuse for
the rough-house finale. During the ab-"
sence of one. the marriage of the other
is consummated, and in all good faith the
rejected sulfor la invited to dine with the
happily wedded pair. The husband, be
ing called away on business, the "villun"
Insults the woman. At this Juncture the
hero returns and in a remarkably realis
tic stage fight leaves his adversary beaten
to an attenuated murmur.
Tom and Stacie Moore made a large
sized hit yesterday in tneir potpourri oj
stories and songs which they call "The
Act Beautiful." The feminine end of the
duo is a handsome woman who wears a
full wardrobe of stunning creations. From
a sartorial standpoint alone this act is
a winner, the piece do resistance being
a peach basket hat two feet in height
and adorned with- genuine . fruit. Tom
Moors also wears clothes down to the
minute, and what is more to the point,
can really "comede."
Billy Court, a Scotch comedian tells
"hoot mon" stories, sings heather songs
and has an oily brogue. Mort' Sharp and
his six dancing belles have an act that Is
out of the ordinary. In the guise of
Creoles a quartet of pretty colored girls
sing and dance in pleasing -unison. Sharp,
assisted by a lithe and graceful belle,
does several specialties showing capable
team work. The two Ahlbergs, New Zea
land acrobats, are original and show clev
erness and skill in a number of eccentric
stunts.
Pantages.
WHIL73 local vaudeville patrons have
seen a number of well done globe
tricks it is doubtful if anything quite so
astonishing in that line as is offered by
Hanson and Jcrnie at Pantages this
week. They submit a number of Innova
tions. The rolling spheres are manipu
lated by these adepts In a marvellous
manner, the culminatlon'of the act being
when Hanson is locked into a large
globe and by sheer muscular effort ex
ercised from the Inside manages to roll
the globe up a staircase. This is a feat
that makes the most blase spectator sit
up and notice.
Another novelty on the present card of
events Is the turn of Martlnettl and
Gross!, another Imported act. It is a
musical offering the man making his
entrance on a bicycle which falls to
pieces on the stage disclosing the fact
that each of its parts is a musical In
strument of some sort, some of them
wonderful to behold. The team then
proceeds to render a number of pleasing
selections which malte a strong appeal to
the audience.
A contortion act of more than usual
interest :s that of the Shelvey brothers
who do a number of surprising stunts,
most of them out of the ordinary. Hamil
ton and Konca are musical artists worth,
hearing. Miss Ronca playing the violin
acceptably and Hamilton singing in a
passable voice.
A female monologlst, Nada Moret,
Tegge and DanieJ, dutch comedians; Leo
White with an Illustrated ballad and
the moving pictures complete the show.
THIEVES STRIP SAILBOAT
Even the 500-Pound Centerboard of
the Feek-a-P.oo Is Stolen.
Captain Verne Porter, of the sailboat
Peek-a-Boo, one of the largest chaft of
its type on the river, reported to the PO
l'ce yesterday morning the loss of almost
everything detachable on the boat. In
chiding a frW-pound centerboard, used to
control the boat.
With a party of friends. Captain Porter
startd for a sail Sunday afternoon and
found the craft could not be controlled, a
capsize almost resulting.
SEWER WILL BE ACCEPTED
Executive Board Pays Xo Heed to
Protest About Brooklyn Conduit.
Paying absolutely no heed to an affi
davit and forma! p'Otest against the
workmanship of the Brooklyn
sewer, filed recently by one J. B. 1
Ziegler, the City Executive Board I
will meet In special! session next Fri
day and accept the big conduit. As
numerous persons, among them the en-
gineers, have passed through tne sewer
and have pronounced it a first-class
Job, this remonstrance by one known
at the City Hall as a specialist on com
plaints, will have no weight, according
to Mayor Simon. - v
"We will accept the Brooklyn
sewer," said Mayor Simon, and will re
quire of the contractors a good and
sufficient bond to protect the city, in
the event anything defective develops
in the works. However, there seems to
be no doubt that the tube is a flrst
class one, and that it will last for more
than a generation; in fact, it will last
many .times that long, we confidently
expect." ,
City Engineer Morris and the mem
bers of the Sewer Committee ,of
the Executive Board express them
selves as highly pleased with the
Brooklyn sewer, and are perfectly
willing to sign the acceptance any
time. Therefore the Board will meet
in special session next Friday, when
the chief business will be the final
taking over of the sewer, which cost
250.000. and was built by Paquet.
Glebisch & Joplln.
The Executive Board wjll also meet
today, as is customary, to pass on
payrolls and to transact any Lusiness
which may be necessary.
MARS WILL HIDE FADE
PLAXET AND MOOX IX OCCXLTA
TIOX TOMORROW.
Eclipse of Interesting Sphere Will
Be Visible In Washington, but
Xot In Portland.
That most interesting of celestial
bodies from the standpoint of earth
mortals, the planet Mars, will enter into
occultation with the moon tomorrow eve
ning. Occultation, be it said, is Just an
astronomical way of saying eclipse; Mars
will be eclipsed by the moon.
At 8:42 P. M. Washington time, or 5:42
o'clock in Portland, the moon will begin
to pass In front of Mars, and 57 minutes
later, at 9:39 o'clock Washington time or
6:29 here, the planet will emerge from
the occultation. As the difference be
tween Washington, D. C, time and that
of Portland, however. Is thre hours and
the eclipse lasts only 57 minutes, it will
not be visible here at all. and nome-
goers in poorly lighted suburban districts
need have no worry that the brightness
of the planet will be dimmed.
On September 23, Mars and its satellites
will be in opposition to the earth, and
at that time the star will be at its
brightest in several years. Mars shines
with a brilliant red color wnicn nas
gained It the name among scientific men
of "the red planet."
Sometime in the very near future Mars
will be in closer Juxtaposition to the
earth than It has been in 15 years, and
astronome.-s are making great prepara
tlons to study it with telescope and
camera. It is hoped that some of the
mooted Questions as to whether Mars
inhabited and whether the network of
lines which powerful glasses snow upon
lts'surface are really a great system of
canals made by Martian engineers can
then be settled.
Ordinarily iMars is something like 4S.
000,000 miles from the earth. When It
reaches Its point of closest Juxtaposition
however, it will be about 15.000,000 miles
closer. But at that it will still be quite
a bit more than a good day's walk for a
grown man to step off the intervening
snace between Mars and us.
John McNulty, nautical expert in
charge of the United States branch
hydrograDhiCiOfflce In the custom-House
gave some interesting figures about the
planet yesterday.
Mr. McNulty found that the average
distance between Mars and the sun Is
141,000.000 miles. Its year Is 322 days
longer than ours, for it takes it 6S7 days
to complete its swing around the sun.
The Martian day is also 37 minutes
longer than one on earth. Mars is 4200
miles in diameter as compared to a
little more than S000 miles for our own
globe.
A man from the earth, would be likely
to have quite an exciting time of it on
Mars until he got used to the difference
In gravity. This Is so great that a 200
pound man here would weigh only 75
pounds there. It a baseball player on
Mars got a good swat at the ball, he
would send it so far it never could be
found again.

The experience of the IT. S. Government in the Panama district
has been that veneered office furniture will not ''stand up" in the
damp climate there. Sometimes we have it a little damp here, and
that's one reason why the SOLID-constructed CUTLER desks are
so popular with the MAN THAT KNOWS in this territory. Get a
desk of highest quality at the same price asked for inferior grades.
