To widen Killingsworth avenue between Union avenue and East Sixteenth street 10. feet and in some instances 20 feet is needed to make the street 60 feet wide, and some- of the owners declined to accept the amount awarded them by the viewers.

At the meeting of the Sandy Commercial Club last week owing to the storm the Port land speakers invited could not attend, but H. A. Darnall, of Gresham, spoke on '"Good Roads." Mr. Darnall urged that the club take up improvement of the road that follows the windings of the Sandy, overlooking the Sandy Valley. Automobiles now travel the western road on account of the bad condition of the Sandy 'Bluff road, but would travel the latter if it were Improved, because of its scenic beauty. A committee was ap pointed to carry out the suggestion. The club also decided to urge the improve ment of all roads leading to Sandy. Ar rangements are to be made to entertain Portland guests as soon as the weather settles. Sellwood Masonic Officers Elected. Sellwood Masonic Lodge.

VISIT FIRST IN 17 YEARS Former Portland Salesman Xotes Climb of Former Patrons, Some Being Millionaires He Is With Lauder Troupe. After 17 years absence Ted D. Marks dropped into town Yesterday and, at Hotel Portland, is renewing acqalntances and friendships of auld lang syne. Yeara ago Mr. Marks was a cipar salesman and his famous brand, .the Pink of Perfection, served as arv introduction to many of the present millionaires of Portland. Marks used to plaster the wall's of the hotels with stickers announcing his. pet cigar. Whenever he found the first let ter of Pink erased and "St" substituted, he was positive it was the work of rival salesmen. "Joe Teal and John Lewis would take a firm grasp pf their noses when they passed my signs," said Mr. Marks yes terday. "That bunch and Mark A. Mayer, Cy Myrick, Ace Hamilton, N. J. Levinson and Tom O'Brien belonged to the red. white and blue painters, who frescoed the town in those days. Many of tlie old crowd have pone on to their reward and left me plodding ahead of my. theatrical people. Many of them are rich and have quit active business, and I positively refuse to divulge any of the secrets as to their conduct in the days when we were boys. They lived good lives, and made every day count, and they were good fellows. It seems mighty fine to get back here again, .and to realize that Portland, as a ctty. has made good on the outlook which persuaded the pio neers to stick with it." Mr. Marks, it ought to be said, has also made good. He is here as advance man ager for Harry Lauder and his troupe of vaudeville performers, to appear at the Armory. Stage Inured Him. "I was always in love with the theat rical business, and perhaps some of the old-trmers still have the satin pro grammes which I got out when Lawrence Barrett first appeared here. J was proud of the privilege of taking the tickets at the door, and some of the gang who oc cupied front seats that night did not have the pasteboards when they got by me. I recall two or three of them who are now bank presidents and corporation heads in this vicinity, who gave me the Kvink when ttey slid past the entrance. "After I left the Coast in 1878 I drifted Into the theatrical business and became associated with some of the pioneers of modern productions, like Marc Klaw, Abe Krlanger, Charles Frohman and Alf Hay man. Many of the old guard have died and others are in the millionaire class, but none of them ever took any niore with them when the' left this world "than I will and I have enjoyed every minute of every day I have lived. The last time I. was here was as the manager for Georgia Drew Barrymore, mother of EXhel. That was in 1S92." Mr. Marks first came North in 1870 by the stag route tw a cigar salesman. After visiting all the principal towns of Wash ington, he located in Portland and con ducted a cigar store at the corner of First and Washington streets, where the First National Bank now stands. TRere he be came intimately acquainted with many of the men who have since made Oregon history. Notables His Patrons. "I sold many of them their cigars." said "Mr. Marks. "Ex -Governor Moody at The Dalles was1 a regular customer for the Pink, while W. S. Ladd and William Sherlock were regular purchasers of the good things which could be found around my headquarters. I remember it was after delivering an order to Governor Moody that I crossed the Columbia River on the ice. We came down on a stage from Walla Walla, and after arriving at The Ialies were compelled to follow a horseback trail along the high ground to get back to Portland." Since engaging in the theatrical busi ness Mr. Marks has become one of the most prominent figures along the Great White Way, and it is not often that he gets far from Broadway. He has made a specialty of bringing foreign arttets to America. Among the noted artists for whom he was Impresario are Yvette Guilbert, Albert Chevalier. Marie Lloyd. Clssie Loftus, Otero, the Spanish dancer, and Anna Held. Miss Held was brought over from France to join Evans and Policyholders' Company insurance riistory Men of Character and Push. Find Profitable Employment in our Agency Department Hoey, the famous old-time comedians. I Mr. Marks carries a watch presented to him by Miss Held, its' face being a du- plication or tne clock tower on the Her ald Square Theater of New York. The time is struck by hammers in the hands of two miniature figures garbed in buskins. In combing foreign cities for novelties and acts of high standing. Mr. Marks crossed the Atlantic Ocean 12S times. DR. BUCHANAN WILL SPEAK Lecture Is to Be Feature of 4Open Night" at Y. M. C. A.

The cackle rs are under the strictest sur veillance of Chief Trusty Casey. As a motive for Casey's vigilance a dellvery of the birds was planned, so it is said, early in .the evening. Unless the owner of the chickens "is located within a rea sonable time the chief- trusty and his colleagues will eat chicken. The chicjtens fell into the hands of the police in a peculiar manner. Apparently chicken thieves were active Friday night in the neighborhood of Ladd's field. Three sacks of the fowls were found abandoned In the field Saturday morning by a milkman. He reported his discov ery to the police and Chief Cox . detailed officers to bring the abandoned chicks to headquarters in the auto patrol. ' Xo chicken theft has been reported.
