CONCENSUS of opinion" hs It that report to the head office In Portland New Bills Open at the Vaudeville Houses this week's Orpheum bill Is the best offered at that theater In many weeks. It is difficult to decide between three acts just which deserves first place- Popularity with the audience places the blue ribbon on "The Three Rubes.' a fat one. a tall one and a short one. and a mighty funny combination It Is too. Messrs. Bowers. W alters and Crooker are the trio responsible for 20 minutes of side-splitting joy. Another favorite number, and one that waa recalled yesterday even after the next act. was that of E!sa Ward and Hershel Hendler. singer and plan lste of exceptionally high order. The programme of these two folk and the appreciation evidenced by the audi ence is enough In Itself forever to put to rout the oft-heard spouting tnai Portland vaudeville patrons do not care for pretentious musical numbers. We do like them when they're worth while. And Elsa's voice Is Just that. big and full of melody. She and Her shel. who Incidentally began his muS' leal career In Portland. There's lots of music In this bill. The Armanis. Ave In number, have a dandy vocal offering. Each a finished singer. the act Is unusual In the Interest It sustains. The selections are all grand opera arias, and given delightfully by the two women and three men vocal ists. There's only one sketch on this bill and It's one of those "different" ones No tearing of emotions or dragging family skeletons about. Instead It s pretty bit of sentiment, domestlo In Its lines, clean and wholesome In the telling, and having for the story-tellers two capable actors, George Pierce, as a horse-owner, and Paul DulzeU as an old trainer. Two folk who entertain are Robin- son Newbold and Marie Grlbbln. The latter, a diminutive and refreshingly attractive maiden, sings In a sweet high soprano selections from "The Ar cadians." Her partner "imitates" sev eral actors, including a screamingly funny one of Raymond Hitchcock sing ing, "Isn't It funny what a difference Just a few hours make?" Their finale. In which Miss Grlbbln appears In mas culine garb, and Newbold trips along In a hobbled-sklrt. provokes a small riot. Hal Fordo has an Interesting offer ing, of the accepted English comedy style, only somewhat better than most of his relations, and with the distinc tion that bis material is new. Le Roy and Paul, two dare-devil ac robats of the knock-about variety, open the bill with a most diverting number. The orchestra music Is all of that flirty saucy qulcktlme sort, and the movlng-plctures move. every week, report willingness on the part of the dairymen everywhere to com ply with the laws. During April sam pies of butter from all the city cream erles and many outside dairies were ex amined. It is reported that Portland Is getting butter of a superior quality.

THE MAN WHO GOLD CAUSES SCRAMBLE Bank Slessenger Drops Cola and In ebrlafe "Helps Pick It Tp." While citizens were pursuing a foiled bank robber on the East Side yester day afternoon, John Lents, charged with being a "common drunk, was en Joying a little bank robbery himself. at First and Washington streets. Lents, though Inebriated, made a better show lrrg than his East Side prototype, as he really put his hands upon $100. Everett Downing, a messenger for the First National Bank, was carrying a large sum of money In a bag, when the string broke and the riches turn bled to the pavement. Downing got over the money like a hen over a brook of chickens, but Lents got under his guard and made off with five $20 gold pieces. He was overtaken by Patrol man Richards and M. C. Banfleld and the money was found on his person. RISES IN PAY TO WAIT Council Committee Postpones Some, Refuses Others. Salary Increases for city employes seem doomed, for yesterday the ways and means committee of the Council postponed action on some and refused other applications for rises In pay. The committee tied on a vote to increase the salary of patrol sergeants from $116 to $125 and Chairman Cellars voted against the rise. "I am of the opinion that patrol sergeants are getting all they are worth now," said Councilman Bur gard. who -has been fighting the sal ary Increases since he was elected to the Council two months ago. He said the general fund Is too low to warrant Indiscriminate rises. CITY ' NOT TO AID FETE Pantagcs. HERE is sufficient variety at Pan tages this week to please the many tastes of amusement-loving folk who frequent the vaudeville houses. The bill ends with the music of trombone and clarionet In the hands of the Ave Lunds, who, as topllners, render famil iar selections from grand opera In manner entrancing. The bill opens with an act scarcely less to be commended, that of Mack and Benton, who dance a medley of queer jigs. A storm of heartier laughter has not been caused In Portland for many moons than that made by Billy Link. the black face comedian, whose praises advance notices of the bill certainly did not sing unjustly. Blossom Robinson Is a singing come dienne of no little ability and her Inter pretations of Vesta Victoria s "Is Any body Here Looking for a Wldowr" Is v far her biggest hit.

A AnM-Bt ATT1J(I tf Al I flllMlNfj Til nflWnFRTS entitled "A Strenuous Daisy" staged by Appropriation for Rose Festival Op posed by Committee. There will be no city appropriation for the benefit of the Rose Festival this year because of the condition of the general fund. This was decided by the ways and means committee of the City Council yesterday, when the members voted to recommend that an ordinance appropriating $2600 "do not pass." Last year the city appropriated $2500 for decoration purposs, but this year the fund is too small to be used for such a plan, it Is said. The Impression seems to prevail In the Council that the Rose Festival should be supported entirely by private subscriptions.

"It has been proven that too frequent wetting the hair is mistake. "Even those who were devoted to shampooing with eggs now use therox and orris root, and they declare that this dry shampoo makes the hair as bright and fluffy as ever did eggs. To make the dry shampoo mix four I ounces of powdered orris root with four I ounces of therox. - Sprinkle a table- spoonful of the mixture on the head and brush it well through the hair.
