O. Q. Hughson, of the league, says that the entire section is one In Interest and that all are Interested In the improve ment of Sandy boulevard. "Our friends at Gregory Heights," said Mr. Hughson, "are apparently under the impression teat we do not care whether the Sandy boulevard is improved out to that sec tion. Just so we can get it paved to East Fifty-seventh street, but this Is a mistake. We want the Sandy boulevard Improved to the end of the street and will work In harmony with the Gregory Heights people. If we get to pulling apart we will not get anything." Use; Found roR Surplus.

At the Star Theater yesterday "Jealousy.' a study In dramatic ex pression, enacted alone by Miss Flor ence Turner, was offered as a film novelty. The emotions of a discarded royal favorite, were portrayed with histrionic and artistic masterfulness. While Miss Turner was able through an expressive pantomimic power to completely convey the tale, the produc tion is artistic In that it itly leaves as much to the intelligent Imagination as Is actually told In the film. "A Friendly Marriage," a romantic comedy; "The Old Confectioners Mis take," somewhat thrilling, and "Pari sian Styles in Hats" make up a strong array of photo plays. The manage ment was fortunate In securing Vir ginia Dorothy Hill, who sang "Love in the Springtime," a very brilliant waltz song, and Alfred Lloyd, a clever coster singer. "A Tragedy at Sea" proved a sensa tion at. the Arcade. This film shows the blowing up of a big schooner in mid-ocean. "Jimmy's Job, a baseball comedy, and two funny Edlsonian farces and Vincent made up the bill. Today the Arcade closes for repairs and redecoratlon, but will reopen next Saturday with a big feature novelty. The Oh Joy Theater featured a big Indian and comedy programme, while good, strong shows were tffered at the Tlvoli and Crystal on the East Side. The Pathe Weekly has been secured for exclusive exhibition every Tues day at the Bijou Theater, on Seventh street, near Washington. BEAUTIFUL CITY- IS PLAN'S FOR GREATER PORT. LAT DISCUSSED TODAY.

CAST. Abbey Tlredhelmer Max Bloom Michael 0'Toole...-...J. E. Coughlin Hennessy -O'Brien Jack Leslie Timothy Hay Craig; Roylston George Hay Johnnie Gllmore Gloria Ring Florence Morrison Flossie Ring .Alice Sher Elizabeth Thatcher Myrtle Bliss Bully Bertha Bangor Rube Waddell. ..Herman Heindrlcks Bobby Raymond... William Whlttem Harry Davis Harry Lamonde Harvey Day George Browning SEASONAL activity was ushered into the Baker Theater yesterday after noon with Max Bloom In "The Sunny side of Broadway." An audience that filled the auditorium gave flattering appreciation of the Hebrew comedian's efforts. Mr. Bloom, needless to say, is the particular pivot round which all else in the play revolves. His are the "taking" songs, his the fat lines, and his talents as an entertainer made him popular with the patrons. Best liked was his well-known "Pa zaza Plant" and, of course, his "Paro dies" took Immensely, although they were crude In spots. In the supporting cast Johnnie Gllmore, in the role of a "rah rah" boy, stands out with espe cial distinctness, because he can sing and dance in a worth while way. J. E. Coughlin and Jack Leslie take care of the two roles Murry and Mack used to handle, those of the Irish bricklayer O'Toole and the hodcarrier O'Brien. As far as a careful following of Ihe lines and dances discloses there has been no change in either since its first presentation in Portland, several years ago. One or two new songs and en sembles lend diversion, and of these Johnnie Gllmore makes a ten-strike with his baritone solo, "'Beware of the Garden of Love." The chorus works hard and faithfully on the three steps It Is limited to, a slim little maid named Alice Sher makes saucer eyes and sings like a recitation out of McGuffey's reader, but mends a bit by her dancing. The-rest of the support is mediocre. The.same bill will be given all week, with the matinees on Wednesday and Saturday. WHERET0 DINE. All the delicacies of the season at the Portland Restaurant.
