erbre, temporary chairman, was instruct
ed to appoint a committee of five, includ
ing himself, as a committee on permanent

pare .plans for the "City Beautiful", at
500 a month salary, exclusive of other
r-xpenses Incurred. Tt is believed that

The special committee appointed by Dr.
Wetherbee" consists of A. H. Devers. J.
C. Alnsworth. C. F. Swlgert, T. .T. Went
worth and Dr. Wetherbee himself.
Tn opening the meeting yesterday Dr.
Wetherbee spoke of the importance of an
educational campaign among the citizens
generally. "To insure eiuccess." he said,
"there must be numerous committees to
co-operate- with the executive committee.
In each ward there must be a committee
with active officers to back it up and
each ward committee must back up the
executive committee.
"To cap all Ahere Tnust he an active
head of the whole movement one who
can give virility to the whole project.
"Th campaign of education may last
two or three years. It will not be pos
sible to carry out all the recommenda
tions the architect makes to the commit
tee, but as we all here believe Portland
will be a city of millions-, we should be
gin while yet. there is time. In building
a house we would first dig out the basement."-
i
C S. Jackson believed that a joint
stock corporation should be formed by
the subscribers and stock issued in pro
portion to their subscription, but this
was generally opposed on the grounds
that the minimum subscription did not
necessarily Indicate a minimum of In
terest, but often the reverse.
Mr. Alnsworth held that before mak
ink any definite agreement the com
mittee should see the contract by
which Architect Bennett would be tied.
Mr. Swigert remarked that whatever
plans were drawn up the City Council
or other bodies would not be bourd
thereby.

Suggestions were made that amons
other recommendations the committee
on permanent organization should ar
range for the engagement of an en
gineer to prepare facts and figures tr
go with maps of Portland to be for
warded to Mr. Bennett in Europe. This
arrangement will probably be con
firmed by the committee of the whole
Tuesday.

worth, treasurer.

At the meeting of the Killingsworth
Avenua Improvement Club last night
in Carroll's store It was announced that
petitions for the improvement of Kill-
ingsworth avenue between Union ave
nue and East Forty-fourth street had
been generally signed, and that there
was no oppostion to hard-surface pave
ment. It was reported that the widening of
Killingsworth avenue to 60 Iee east of
Union avenue is progresing and will be
accomplished soon. It is estimated that
the improvement will cost more than
$100,000. :"ully two miles will be
paved. A representative of the bitu
lithic paving company made a state
ment of the probable cost. The club
decided, in view of the large contract
for the improvement of the street, to
invite the other paving companies to
submit estimates as to cost.
It was stated by D. W. Ford that the
Portland Railway, Light & Power Com
pany has a franchise on Killingsworth
avenue, and he had been reliably in
formed that the company would build
on the street and continue the line to
Fairview. The subjects of pavements
and the street railway franchise were
referred to the standing committees to
look into and report next Tuesday
night.
Councilman Ellis spoke briefly about
improvement of streets and electric
lights. It was voted to favor expedit
ing the construction of the Broadway
bridge and to send a delegation to the
meeting of the North East Side Im

night.
FETE TO BE
T
GAIETY WILTj HAVE ITLL SWAY
FRIDAY XIGHT.
Beautiful Dances Will Charm All
Who Attend Entertainment
Given for Charity.
Red and white, the brilliant colors of
the French Fete, will be in evidence
everywhere on Friday night, when the
curtain of the Baker'Theater rises on tho
pretty peasant scene, the May-pole with
its myriads of roses, gray young people
in holiday attire, pipers and what not.
Tn the words of the Village Jester, Master
Wayne Coe :
And If you cry bravo! Well done!
For gypsy peasant. Queen of May,
For page, Pavonne, or d arise Francalse,
We'll ask no greater recompense.
.A lions! Now let the show commence!
The show will commence and with a
whirl of color, run the gamut of varied
dances and catchy songs, and make all
merry.
The dances are all symbolic; some
have survived from ancient festivals,
some tell a story of nature.' One of the
most beautiful is to be that of the
Gypsies, the fascinating people " of no
home, no kith; with their wealth of
spirit and fire, their love of freedom and
motion and song. All of these Ideas
they will tell in their dance, kneeling in
the begging tableau, at its conclusion in
homage to their queen.
Then Miss Marie Howell. "Queen of
the tribe," glides out to the center of
the kneeling circle, and. as if in response
to their appeal, she shows them the wild,
fanciful steps of her people, now sinu
uous and gliding, now bold and free, to
the shake, shake of the tambourines and
the gentle sway of their lithe bodies.
Then "Softly, Softly. Steal Away," and
the Gypsies are gone, with their weird
and fanciful glide.
Tho orange sellers will conclude the
pea.sant scenes, they, too, dancing out the
thoughts behind their pretty practice.
"Come, buy my oranges," they say, in
step and motion. "Come. buy. buy. buy.
They, too, enter into the spirit of the
holiday, and toss the oragnes to the
hungry lads and lassies who clamor for
more.
The idea of the ete is novel and Port
land takes kindly to new ideas. The
F'ruit and Flower Mission is popular and
popularity counts even in charity. And
always and ever, beauty will attract,
young people will be interesting, art and
talent will be appreciated.
So here we havt it ali. beauty, talent
and an artistic treat with, a chance to
do for a noble charity and strange to
say, get our money's worth. Not a box
or seat has been sold above the cus
tomary price. Tickets as well as the at
tractive wares in the booths, are to
bring value received, even the rehearsals
have been the source of pleasure and
profit and the fete has already proved
"worth while -

1908, by 44 per cent. The record In both

CUR SERVICE IS SCORED
SUXXYSIDE RESIDENTS UP IX
ARMS OVER QTJESTIOX.
Xot Enough Cars, Infrequent Trips
and Routing of Cars Only Few
Objections Raised. -
Patrons of the Sunnyside and Mount
Tabor lines are making complaint regard
ing1 the poor streetcar service that is in
-ogue just now,: and which they allege
seems to be getting -worse with each suc
ceeding week. There are several objec
tions urged to the present service, among
them that there are not enough cars and
making infrequent trips. The system of
handling the cars is another source of
great annoyance,- as well as the routing of
the Sunnyside cars around the Third
street loop,
- It is said that the Sunnyside and Mount
Tabor lines are among the ones most
heavily traveled in Portland, and that the
service now being furnished is worse
than at any time in recent years. Sunny
side cars are used now only during the
morning and evening rush hours, and at
that they are not routed uptown, as
formerly, but are turned ofT from Morri
son at Third and are" sent around the
loop. This necessitates passengers who
have to go as far as Fourth, Fifth or
Sixth, streets, or even farther west, wait
ing for a Mount Tabor car, or walking.
Tip to two weeks ago. these cars were
run up Morrison to Eleventh street, af
fording, great convenience to passengers.
During the day the Mount Tabor cars,
commonly called "through cars, run at
about 12 or 15-minute intervals, which is
twice too long, as every car is jammed
to suffocation, and there is constant com
plaint upon the part of passengers. Go
ing east, during the evening rush hours.
Mount Tabor cars are ordered to make
no stops for the purpose xf permitting
passengers to alight until Fast Thirty
ninth street is reached. This formerly
gave the people at Mount Tabor an ex
cellent service, but with the Sunnyside
cars running around the Third-street
loop, these frequently get in front of the
no-stop" cars and hold them back all
the way out to Thirty-ninth, thus mak
ing a farce of the "through" service. The
cars in use are,- in many instances, small
and absolutely inadequate to the needs
of the populous districts that are sup
posed to be served thereby.

SCOTTISH VIRTUES TOLD
GOOD SAINT'S DAY CELEBRATED
WITH SQXG AND STORY.
Speaker Points to Carnegie as Model
of What Can Be Accomplished
by Saving.
Members of St. Andrew's Society and
good Scotsmen generally met around a
festal board last night to celebrate the
day of the good St. Andrew Scotland's
patron saint. There were songs and
stories, toasts and speeches, an I other
things, and not a man asked who St.
Andrew was. The new president, K. K.
Baxter, we.s in the chair.
Robert Livingstone, who responded to
the toast "The Land We Left," told his
hearers that Oregon could easily con
tain two countries the size of Scotland.
He extolled the "thrifty Scot," and told
a story of one who wrote home that
he hadn't been in London half an hour
when "bang went saxpence."
"Think," said the speaker, "of the re
sult, when the Scots save, for instance,
their weekly wages. "What of Andrew
Carnegie? Look at the millions he has
amassed, because he saved his weekly
wages."
Passing into a serious vein, Mr. Liv
ingstone discussed the literature of the
Scot and briefly reviewed the careers
of Robert Burns who he 1 bought
stands today on the same proud
world em inence as Shakespeare,
Goethe and Oante Sir "Walter Scott.
Robert Louis Stevenson and others. As
a contrast to the saving habits of the
Scot, the speaker referred to the late
John Stewart Kennedy, of New York
City, who left $30,000,000 to works of
benevolence, charity and church exten
sion. A patriotic response was made by John
A. Patterson to the toast "The Land We
Ll'e In," , the thread of his speech being
the high ideal of the naturalized Scot as
an American citizen. "As Others See
Us", gave opportunity to Wajlace Mc"
Camant to make a. speech replete with
historical references to Scots as American
patriots and model citizens. Mr. Mc
Camant also told many amusing anec
dotes. J. B. Meikle spoke on "Our
Patron Saint W. R. Mackenzie on "Our
City", and A. H. Birrell on "The St. An
drews Society of Oregon."
Scotch songs were sung stirringly by
J. Adrian Fpping, now of Hood River,
Or.; F. T. Crowther and Dr. George Ains
lie. No Scotch merrymaking is complete
without bagpipe music, and this was
given in fine style by Pipe Major J. H.
MacDonald. Every song was encored and
often the Scots joined in the choruses.
Above the speakers table were Scotch
and American flags. Mrs. A. H. Birrell
sent a gift of white heather.
St. Andrew's Society is a benevolent or
ganization, existing that Scots who need
it may receive financial and: moral as
sistance. None of the officers draws a
salary and all those present N last night
paid for their dinners. The guests' pres

RING CUTS ACTOR'S HAND
Bowles Faints From Injury as He
Ijeaves 'Stage.
With the two prongs of a broken
seal ring piercing the sensitive flesh of
his finger. Donald Bowles, whose act
now on at the Orpheum is esteemed by
critics the actor's best bid for fame,
played out a long scene at that theater
Monday night and then fell fainting in
the wings, as the result of gaming It
out Mr. Bowles may pay dearly for tho
finger, from the neglect, became in
fected, and should blood poisoning set
in his hand may have to be amputated.
The accident happened soon after Mr.
Bowles' entry. In a struggle with the
butler after the hero-burglar has
entered the apartments of the judge, It
falls to Mr. Bowles" part to uppercut
the servant into insensibility, after
wards chloroforming him.
Instead of finding the butler's jaw,
the heavy blow landed on the edge of
a table, breaking a large seal ring on
the actor's right little finger. The
ring sprung apart, the two broken ends
biting to the bone. The wound might
have been larger, it could hardly have
been more painful. TMzzy with pain.
Bowles called the stage mechanician
during the intermission when he is sup
posed to be hiding from the judge. So
strong was the grip of the broken ring
that it was impossible tT force it open,
and the actor, a real hero now, had to
go on with the scene to the end. when
the ring was filed off and medical aid
called. Fortunately the act calls for

Talks or Teetli
BY THE REX DENTAL. I DENTISTS
WHAT BEAUTIFUL TEETH!
One of our patients told us recently
of a good joke she played on one of
her friends.
"What beautiful teeth you have!" the
friend exclaimed.
"They are nice teeth," she admitted,
"and," she continued, "there isn't a cav
ity in one of them."
The friend thought that, too, was re
markable. After some more talk back and forth
between them, the lady with "the beau
tiful teeth" said : "I urn going to con
fess to you these teeth are ALL
FALSE. They are the famous Alveolar
teeth without plates or bridgework.
They are mine," she said, "for I bought
and paid for them, but I am. not tell
ing everybody that."
And the friend said she was goinsr
to have some teeth like those if she
had to have some of hers extracted to
make room for them.
The point of the story is this:
The Alveolar teeth are so near like
the best that Nature can supply that
not only do they deceive one's friends,
but dentists as well. And they are not
alone beautiful to look at, but they are
just as fine to eat with, for once in
place they-are as firm as a rock.
Will you let our examining dentist
look over your teeth free of charge or
obligation on your part?
Send for our book, "Alveolar Dentis- "
try." It is free.
Bear Id mind, please, that the very
best is the cheapest in the end in den
tistry. Fight shy of cheap work. You'll
get stung.

cialty of Alveolar Dentistry (Restoring
