Proposed franchises for th Pnuth nt Paxlfie Compuy to lay a track oa Fourth itrttt nd a track oa Jrf fersoa street, enabling: the company to double-crack aad electrify Its West Ftde system, were Informally present ed to the street rommlttfe of the City Council yesterday afternoon. They will be referred formally to the committee neat Wednesday and will be beard by the commutes Feb ruary S3. The street committee received a resolution from tba Fulton Park Im provement Club, slcned by W. A. Hansen, president, and ft. 1. Hop bum, secretary, askisf tba Council to Insert fire-cent fre clauses In ths clty-Umlt franchises and to nams stopping places. Alt proposed franchises for ths Portland Raflsray, Lie tit Jt Power Company will be considered by com mute at 10 o'clock Monday moraine After hearing an appeal of business men of the Central East Side district, ths street committee of the City Coun cil yesterday referred to City Attorney Grant for an opinion, a proposed ordi nance by Councilman Joy, declaring a common-user on the Southern Pacific Company's tracks on East Klrst street and demanding adequate freight and passenger facilities. Mr. Grant Is asked by the committee to submit an opinion on the power of the Council to amend the existing franchise of the company. Declaring that conditions as to the handling of frelsrht are very had and entirely Inadequate and uncertain, Dan Kellaher, president of the East Fide Business Men's Club, asked that that section of the city be given relief by means of the common-user clauses, which the proposed ordinance contains, lie was supported In his statements by C. A. Blgelow and other prominent business men haying; large interests in t!ie district. Clafc'a Resjaesi Considered. The proposed ordinance, which was introduced by Councilman Joy at the request of the East Side Business Men's Club, was read and the members were made acquainted In a formal manner with Its provisions. It calls for common-user on the tracks of the Harrtman line on East First street, between Hawthorne avenue and East Burnstde street and for adequate fretirht and passenger facilities for the district on the Central East Fide. "Conditions as to freight service on the East Side are very bad and not at all In keeping with the rapid growth of the district," said Mr. Kellaher. "Years (to, when the present fran chise was granted to the Ilarrlman system. It was thought that there would never be such a big wholesale and retail center there, but times have chanced very materially and we now tand In urgent need of relief. We therefore come before this Council, asking that you will render that Te Jirf; we believe that you have unlim ited power and authority to do so, and have therefore asked you to do it by declaring common-users on all of the tracks on East First street. This is but one of several ordinances of a similar nature that we will ask ynu to pass, amending Ilarrlman fran chisee, so that all comers may have the use of adequate tracks for doing a general freight and passenger busi ness. Kenedy la Wanted. The Council, In granting: to the Karrlman road a track on East Third street some time ago. allowed a Joker to slip through, and as a mat ter of fact, owing to the passage of that 'joker.' and because of the fact that the track crosses a private right f way for 200 feet, no common-user prevails at alL This also ought to be remedied, for we are entitled to re lief. The president of the Public rcks Commission is with us In our efforts to secure relief along the lines I have Indicated here, for he wishes the entire waterfront to be opened to the commerce of the world and to have adequate freight facilities pro vided thereby." "There Is one thing to which the at tention of the committee should be called." said C A. Blgelow. "and that is the district under consideration Is fourth largest In the Vnlted States In the shipment of Implements and with proper facilities for handling freight, will undoubtedly rise at once to third place. It Is a subject that should re ceive your most serious considera tion." Rcfereaee ot Opposed. Councilman Baker, chairman of the committee on streets, suggested that the ordinance be referred to City At torney Grant for an opinion as to the power of the Council to amend. Mr. Kellaher said that be and the members of his delegation would have no spe cial objection to that action, although he wished to ask the committee as a favor to the business men of the East side cot to take action on any other franchises that may be presented un til such time as this one is decided. "I think It Is the disposition of this committee." replied Mr. Baker, to give every ona an opportunity to be heard. If that Is correct, we will consider all of the franchises when they are pre sented and give every one who desires it an opportunity to bave his say before acUon la taken. That will be the order and we will refer the First street ordinance to the City Attorney for an opinion." Action Wasted Qalrkly. The franchise to which Mr. Kella her made reference is that of the Southern Paclrtc Company for double tracking Fourth street. It will be pre sented to the Council net Wednesday at the regular meeting. The East Side business men have Inaugurated their ficht to secure common-user clauses on ill tracks in that district at this time because they propose to forestall the rrantlnc of any additional rights to the Ilarrlman Interests on Fourth street unless the common-users are granted on the East Side.

RAILROADS ARE VYING Lines Out of Omaha Start Contest for Selection of Special All In vite Travelers to Visit Cities) on Way. Valuable advertising space is being devoted to Portland and Oregon these days by th newspapers of several cit ies in which large parties are being or ganized to attend the Elks' National convention in Portland next July. In Omaha a contest is being waged between the various railroads operating west out of that city for the honor of carrying the Omaha Elks" special train. The Omaha lodge will vote on the adop tion of its official route, but meanwhile the railroads are advertising heavily in the home papers, Portland Incidentally receiving much publicity. The Union Pacific and the Burlington seem to be the principal contestants in the cam paign. "The route carries the traveler through the richest and most prosper ous agricultural district of the West," Is the announcement made by Grrlt Fort, passenger traffic manager of the Union Pacific, in a full-page advertise ment In an Omaha paper. "The scenery cannot be equaled in any other section of America. Mountains, rushing trout streams, waterfalls and a 200-mile ride along the banks of the majestic Colum bia River are a few of the attractions offered." Coaventlom Trip Extolled. Burlington officials are equally gener ous in telling of the advantages of a Portland trip, and on top of this the "Portland committee" of the Omaha lodge Is holding out Inducements. "The entertainment offered to Elks and their ladles during the grand lodge reunion by Portland Elks will be on a more magnificent scale than has ever been attempted by any lodge in the his tory ofthe order." advises the secretary In a communication recently sent to every Omaha Elk. Invitations to stop off at Baker, Chey enne. Billings. Spokane and other cities en route between Omaha and Portland have been received. It is probable that the Omaha special will be routed so that stops can be made at various places. The Omaha delegation will take a prominent part in, the paradeon Thurs day. July 11. In Salt Lake City an equally active campaign is under way. Interest has been lent the "On to Portland" move ment by a drawing for a round-trip railroad ticket that takes place at every lodge meeting. The participants in the drawing pay a sum not less than 6 cents and not more than f 1, the amount being decided by lot. The winner Is given a railroad ticket. A drawing takes place every week. This plan has been fol lowed for four or five months and will continue until oonventlon time. Salt Lake to Bead 400. In this way probably 40 Elks will be Induced to come to the convention who otherwise might not have come. Re cent advices from Salt Lake City are that fully 300 Elks will come to the re union. Following the example of the Port land Ad Club, which devoted Its last regular luncheon to a discussion of the convention plans, the Seattle Ad Club will devote its programme of February 27 to the same general subject. A party of more than 25 Portland Elks will go to Seattle tor that occasion. Several Portland men will speak. A committee consisting of Harvey O'Bryan. W. M. Davis and George W. Klelser will or ganize the Portland lodgemen. The Portland Ad Club also will send a large delegation. In the evening the entire party will be entertained by the Seattle Elks. BEAVER MANAGER WEDS IN SECRET Mrs. Etta Reitz, ex-Pendleton Woman, Is Bride of Walter McCredie at Vancouver. FRIENDS ARE SURPRISED Wife of Baseball CInb Leader Is Daughter of Prominent Stock man of Umatilla Pair Re ceive Congratulations. Fulfilling rumors which have been flying thick and fast for nearly a fort night, Walter McCredie, manager of the thrice champion Portland Coast League ball club, slipped clandestinely across the Columbia Thursday night and shook off the ties of bachelorhood in favor of Mrs. Etta Reltz, a beautiful widow. Mrs. Reits was formerly Miss Etta Horseman, daughter of a prominent stockman of Pendleton, . Or. She has been living at the Russell apartments, on West Washington street, and It was here the romance began two years ago when Walter McCredie, Eugene Krapp and Jess Garrett, members of the Port land team, rented apartments In the same building. Wedding at Uncle's Home. The marriage ceremony was per formed by Rev. A. W. Bond, pastor of the First. Congregational, Vancouver, at the home of the bridegroom's uncle, W. W. McCredie. The utmost secrecy was observed in every particular, the offi ciating clergyman and those present being cautioned not to let slip any an nouncement. But the news of the wedding spread and early yesterday morning Mr. and Mrs. McCredie were literally bombarded with congratulatory messages at their new home at 750 Irving street. The bridegroom will leave Portland March S for Santa Maria, Cal., to su pervise the Spring training of his base ball players and In the Interval be tween March t and April 16, when the team returns to Portland, Mrs. Mc Credie will visit relatives at Pendle ton. Baseball Record Good. The nappy benedict Is one of the best-known minor league baseball managers in the United States, having led the Portland Beavers to three pen nants and three second places In seven years. Previous to securing the Port land franchise he played with numer ous teams in the East, for ona season In the majors. On one occasion last. Summer it was reported that McCredie was to marry Mrs. William Shanley. a San Francisco widow, but McCredie has denied that there was at any time foundation for such a report. By and odd coincidence Nick Wil liams, manager of the Portland North western League team, stole a similar march on his friends about two months ago and was married after a romance lasting several years. CORVALLIS T0 BE TRYST All-Oregon Excursion to Agricultur al College Planned. Business men from every part of Oregon will make Corvallls their Mecca on the All-Oregon Business Men's Ex cursion, the date of which will be set early this Spring.

Pierce who visited the Agricultural College this week to lay plana for a campaign to bring about a still greater development of the college extension work, and to bring the skill of the experts of the college closer to the public The excursion will be held for the purpose of arousing interest among the commercial organizations of the state to get them lined up for the support of the movement when plans which will be more definitely outlined in the future shall be put Into practice. The inten tion is to have business men fr.om every part of the state on the campus at the same time, to pass a full day in specting the workings and equipment of the -institution.

Disciples of Christ, Told Not to En ter New Territory; Withdraw From Oregon Body. Refusing to be under the dictation of the Oregon survey committee of the Home Missions Council as to whether they should or should not enter new territory for evangelistic work, the Disciples of Christ of the state, usually known as the Christian denomination, have withdrawn from the committee. This action was taken at the last meet ing of the committee at the Young Men's Christian Association building Wednesday. C. F. Swander. secretary of the Ore gon Christian Missionary Convention, and Rev. C. H. Hilton, a Forest Grove pastor, were the representatives from the Christian Church. The denomina tion started work In one of the small towns of Oregon, a minister of another denomination wrote to the survey com mittee, asking that the denomination withdraw and leave him in possession of the field, and the representatives of the church decided it would be best to resign from the committee. Rev. J. F. Ghormley, pastor of the Central Christian Church, speaking of the situation last night, said: "There were some things in the gen Visitors to the Factory, watch with interest the filling of cans with Ghirardelli's Cocoa The Filling Machine is a long shoot or shaft, down which the Cocoa is dropped automatically into each can which is accurately weighed before it is covered. "Good measure, pressed down and run ning over" is one of the many desirable attributes of Ghirardelli's Cocoa full weight in every can. eral programme our committee did not like. Our representatives felt they could not accept the whole programme. They were perfectly willing to go into the federation for a survey of the state, to analyze the religious situation, but they would not agree to remain out of fields until they had consulted with the sur vey committee. Being on the state board of our own denomination, our representatives felt they were under obligations to our convention, and ought not to be bound by the rulings of those outside our own church. "This action here in Portland does not in any way affect, alter or influ ence the position of the denomination as a whole in its representation on the Home Missions Council, as each state board acts independently." Rev. F. C. W. Parker, of the Bap tists, who is a member of the survey committee, said last night the resigna tion of the representatives of the Chris tian denomination is to be regretted. Inasmuch as the National Home Mission Society of their denomination is a mem ber of the Home Missions Council, com posed of 22 denominational home mis sion boards, under whose general aus pices the study of religious conditions In the West is being made. The 2300 school districts of the state will be used as units, the statistics be ing compiled for the state-after being obtained for the districts. It is ex pected some difficulty will be encoun tered in gleaning Information from sparsely settled districts. John Vincent Rowland Sought. PORTLAND. Feb. 9. (To the Edi tor.) I will greatly appreciate hear ing from anyone who has any knowl edge of the past or present residence of John Vincent Rowland, who is sup- costs lets than a cent "Ninety-Three" The Story of a Famous Name and How It Originated The foremost dermatologist in France, Dr. Babourant, of Paris, and Professor Unna, Hamburg, Germany, discovered that a microbe caused baldness. To prove their theory. Dr. Sabourand in fected a guinea pig with some of these microbes and In a comparatively short time the animal was denuded of every hair that was on its body. Some eminent histologists and chem ists were employed by the United Drug Co., Boston, Mass., to find the means of destroying these microbes and a remedy that would create a new growth of hair where the hair roots had not been en tirely destroyed. After months of study, experimenting and research work, they discovered what they claimed would do what was demanded. To unquestionably prove their theory, 100 leading druggists, lo cated in as many different cities, were requested to each furnish the name of a responsible person suffering from falling hair and baldness. Each of these 100 persons were furnished three bottles of the preparation with a re quest to give it a thorough trial and report results. Five of these people failed to report. Two declared they had been bald for years; that their hair follicles, had long been closed, and their scalps were smooth and glossy. Ninety-three of the 100 sent in en thusiastic reports, stated that they were delighted with the hair-restoring qualities of the preparation, and ex pressed sincere thanks for the wonder ful benefits brought about by its use. In commemoration of this, the new preparation was named Rexall " 93 " Hair Tonic. We sell this remedy with the dis tinct understanding that it is free of cost to the user in every case where it does not completely remove dandruff, stimulate the hair follicles, revitalize the hair roots, stop the hair from fall ing out, grow new hair and make the scalp free from Irritation.
