East Side Traffic Impeded. Coun

overhead crossings on East Morrison

an impetus Tuesday. A long freight

up for nearly 20 minutes before it
was pulled out of the way. Another
train also pulled north across the
street. During the wait 134 vehicles
and automobiles by actual count col
lected east and west of East Morrison

LEASE OF DREDGE URGED
Port Commission to Be Asked to Al
low Government TTse of Craft.
Because the Port of Portland has re
fused to lease one of its dredges to
the Government for the purpose of
dredging the Columbia . River channel
at Sand Island, the Chamber of Com
merce will mike a formal request to
day that the port Commission reverse
its - decision, and if the desired point
is not gained a 'mass meeting may be
called to test the temper of the people
of the city concerning the situation.
The request will be made at a session
of the Chamber of Commerce at 11
o'clock this morning. Members of the
Port Commission will be present, and
it will be urged upon them that the
lease of the dredge is vital, for the
k hA -iv must show an
i taouii in., too - . j
adequate interest in the improvement
oi tne cnannei ur cud viubd
likely to cut the appropriation for the
work. . '
Members of the Chamber of Com
merce will assert that if the channel
Is not improved near Sand Island at
once, the completion of the Jetty at
the mouth of the Columbia will be
delayed a year or more, and that Port
land cannot afford to allow her inter
est in a 30-foot channel to abate, as
the refusal to lease the dredge would
indicate. . .

V CTOR MORLEY'S genteel comedy,
elite eccentricities and his fascinat
ing smile and way of wearing his
clothes never held sway in more ap
propriate 'environs than in "The Quaker
Girl," which served as an after-Chrlstmas-dinner
cordial twice yester
day at the Heillg. . Once in the after
noon it delighted va good-sized audi
ence of. early diners,, and last night
Christmas fashions in the audience
vied with the ultra styles across the
footllght, for, veritably, "The Quaker
Girl" is, to outward appearances, only
Quakerish In act No. 1. Then she
bursts forth in glory, Jmld all the sur
roundings of Parisian fashions and
styles, melodies of color and sparkling
vivacity, to close in act No. 3 again
In a gorgeous study in green under
tones a lawn at the embassy on the
outskirts, of Paris.
But Victor Morley only lends to the
play. "The Quaker Girl" alone has
merits as myriad as are thedewdrops
which its freshness suggests. It is
clean, wholesome, invigorating and
soothing all at once, and the new type
of musical comedy queen blooms under
the soft treatment of the co-authors.
Natalie Alt is she who, as Prudence
Pym, gives us the Quaker girl, as
dainty and pretty and adorable -in one
act as another, and always a satisfy
ing study in passive impressions. She
sings enchantingly.'
From the beginning, when she sud
denly steps out from a row of chorus
girls and announces that she has
learned by instinct and by reading "Re
flections of a Widow" while locked up
to curb her life-throbbings that her
Quaker village Is a poor makeshift of
that great big world of which she
knows not, she is Prudence Pym. She
runs the gamut of sensations in Paris
as a model in the establishment of a
French modiste to the girl favored and
pursued by princes. All the time she is
sweet, charming and refreshing.
To Natalie Alt. therefore, go showerB
of blessing with those poured down
upon Victor Morley. No wonder, is it.
that England loved "The Quaker Girl"
and the Eastern cities fairly raved over
herT
And "The Quaker Girl" Is as gor
gesouly mounted as it is wonderfully
costumed .and played. For 'the benefit
of the women there are costumes galore
and In beauteous array. The first
scene, which is a marvelous piece of
painting and stage handicraft, is a sew
study in stage realism. The scenery is
In perspective and the colors are so
perfect that one imagines almost that
the soft atmosphere can- be seen
nestling down in between the Quaker
village hills. The last scene setting
is as artistic as It is unusual.
But to the play itself. It is a mu
sical comedy of merit. Victor Morley
comes in early, makes frequent de
bonair exits, returns often, and with
each return does a few more of the
antics which make him a favorite. He
dances and sings and he reels off a
silly "explanation" that is a winner
In the second act. Incidentally he in
jects enough of his specialties to tease.
If not satisfy, his ardent admirers.
The ctory of the play is simply that
Quaker girl, cast off by her Quaker
keepers In England, is taken to Paris
by a motley combination, including a
French modiste, an eloping princess and
Victor Morley as Tony, a naval em
bassy attacHe. The strange part, and
the delightful bit, too, is that this sud
den transplanting into the life of Paris
does not materially change our friend,
the Quaker girl, for she, is good, bet
ter, best all the way through, taking
on style and finish as she progresses,
ever graceful, alluringly charming and
versatile.
There Is a big well-costumed chorus
and a big speaking cast. Edna Furry
as the exiled, eloping princess adds
sparkling grace to the many pictures
in which she is drawn, and Andree Cor
day again is capital in her characte.
role of the French modiste. Enter
Theodosia de Capper, otherwise Diana,
French actress, who adds a little spice
to our Quaker girl's debut in Paris.
Miss Capper, in a stunning gown and
her almost painfully real character de
pictions if a French type in all its
tempermbntal sway, is not only good to
look upon, but is finished in her work.
Amy Lesser, who Is liked far and wide
for her clever character work, is a
good Phoebe, maid to the princess.
Stella Beardsley. pretty and graceful.
has a small chance and makes good as
an employe of the French modiste.
Voices are not in the majority of the
company, but this need not be, as there
Is something doing ' otherwise all the
time. However, Phil J. Moore as Prince
Carlo, affiance of the princess, carries
away honors In the male portion of the
cast. His "Come to the Ball" is one of
the delicious, tuneful portions of the
play. In fact, this is the motif. Wil
liam Friend as a Quaker sprouting out
and Murray Stophens as Captain Some
body, who wooes and wins the prin
cess, contribute, among others, to the
principal roles of the unusually large
cast. William BlalsdelKas the Chief
of Police of Paris is good.
"The Quaker Girl carries several
songs and tunes that will keep. Mr.
Morley and Miss Alt do a pretty dance
number- in the second act, and they
predominate all other acts with effect.
The Quaker Girl continues today,
tomorrow and Saturday, with a Satur
day matinee.
VALUATION FIGHT ASSURED
Council Expected to Put Price of.
$200 a Mile, on Franchises.
While considerable opposition Is ex
pected in the Council meeting today to
the valuation on the 'proposed general
franchise grant to the Portland Rail
way, Light & Power Company, it is
thought differences will be patched up
and the grant sent to the City Audi
tor for advertising. This action will
make it possible for the measure to
come before the Council for final adop
tion or rejection at the first meeting
in February-and probably at the same
time final action is taken on tne pro
posed Fourth-street grant of the
Southern Pacific, the Jefferson-street
grant to the same company and the
proposea Hill East Side common-user
grant
The valuation of $200 a mile per an
num, as recommended for the fran
chise by the Executive Board, is con
sidered by the majority of Council
men to be sufficiently high. At this
rate the city will receive $4000 a year
revenue or a total of $100,000 for the
25 years the franchise runs. This is
considerably higher than the valua
tion placed on any franchise granted
the company heretofore.
Dan Kellaher, L. M. Leppe'r and oth

2 COUNCILMEN IN SESSION
Decision to Fix Councllmen's Pay at
$1000 Month "Unanimous."
"I move you, your honor, that the
salary, of Councilmen be increased to
$1000 a month," said Councilman Bur
gard yesterday when the regular semi
monthly meeting of the Council was
called to order.
"That'll be the order if there's no
objection," said Councilman Baker, who
was the only other member present
and who in the abscence of Mayor
Rushlight presided.
- "I move you now, your honor, that
when we abjourn we adjourn to meet
again in five minutes at the cigar stand
and that the Deputy Auditor be in
structed to purchase each of us a
cigar."
"That'll be the order," said President
Baker.
"You can't pass either motion," pro
tested Deputy Auditor Grutze. "There
isn't a- quorum present."
In consequence the meeting ad
journed and Councilman Burgard, the
author of the motion was required to
purchase. The regular meeting will be
held this morning at 9:30 o'clock.

At the annual meeting of taxpayers
of School District No. 1. which will be
held tomorrow night at 8 o'clock at
the Lincoln High School, the school
tax levy for 1913 will be fixed and the

$1,620,000. The levy for 1912 was 6
mills.
The proposed bond issue has been
suggested by the School Board as a
means of securing funds for the pur
chase of school sites and -erecting a
new high school, a new Couch School
and a new School of Trades building.
