SUBWAY DATA ON WAY
FEASIBILITY OF PROJECT IS
CLUB'S IXijrERY.
Time Will Come, It Is Urged, "When
Trade Traffic Will Outgrow
Bridge Facilities.
A special committee from the Greater
East Side Club, appointed several weeks
ago, is Investigating the feasibility of
building a subway.
Charles K. Henry, who made exten
sive Investigations of subways and had
surveys made for such subway, re
ported to the club that he considered
the construction of a subway the next
great project for Portland. According
to his investigations Mr. Henry said
there are no serious engineering
problems to overcome in the construc
tion of a subway under the Willamette
River, and that the landings on either
side of the river would not have to be
a long way back. The cost of this sub
way, he said, would not be much more.

The committee expects to get all data
ready concerning the subway for sub
mission within a few weeks to the
Greater East Side Club with a view of
getting a vote probably in 1911 at the
general election.
As proposed, this subway would be
for streetcar traffic mainly, with elec
tric cars running through it and con
necting at both ends with the regular
system, doing away with the need
largely of crossing the bridges. Time
will come, it is urged, when - the
ordinary traffic over the bridges, out
side of streetcars, will make the con
struction of a subway a necessity.
Hence the club has started the agita
tion in order to get a vote in the next
year or two.
The subway committee is composed
of the following persons: G. B. Datson,

FOSTER TELLS OF NEEDS
CARHXE DIRECT TO COLLEGE
IS SOUGHT BY REED.
President of Institution Gives Sug
gestions Which May Be Submit
ted to Commission.
W. T. Foster, president of the Reed
College, In a communication to the
East Side Business Men's Club, sug
gests routes for new carlines in the
vicinity of the college. These sugges
tions will be considered, and in time
submitted to the State Railroad Com
mission. President Foster said in his
letter:
"A carline by a fairly direct route
from the city to Reed College is greatly
needed. A glance at the map will show
that there is no considerably settled
area within the city so poorly served as
the area of which tbe Reed College is
the center. The greatest transporta
tion need of the college is a carline
starting from the West Side, following
the Sellwood line as far, say, as Hol
gate street, thence east on Holgate to
East Twenty-eighth, thence south on
East Twenty-eighth to Fifty-third ave
nue', which Is called Kelly avenue;
thence east on Fifty-third avenue pos
sibly as far as East Seventy-second
street, where it would connect with
the Mount Scott line. A line reaching
Kelly avenue would reach the border
of the Reed Campus nearest to the
city.
"A more direct route would be by way
of Mllwaukle avenue to Inaley avenue,
and thence straight to the north bor
der of the campus. For example, we
are promoting for May 9, 10 and 11 a
conference of the Pacific Northwest on
the conservation of human life. Un
doubtedly, the attendance at this con
ference will be limited only by the
transportation facilities. As it is, we
shall have 000 persons In attendance.
"The proposed carline on East Thirty-ninth
street from the O. W. P. tracks
on the south to Columbia boulevard on
the north would be a great convenience
to many Reed College students residing
on tbe East Side. Students coming
from Laurelhurst. Richmond. Sunny

BIG FILL IS TO BE MADE
Work Will Be Done in Asylum Ra
vine Soon.
The Pacific Bridge Company is com
pleting arrangements to fill Asylum
Ravine, between Belmont and East
Taylor, East Ninth and East Tenth
streets, where the company recently
purchased property to the amount of
$75,000 from the Hawthorne estate.
It is proposed to take care of the
flow of water from Hawthorne Springs
by making an entrance to the sewer in
East Main street. This will enable the
company to proceed with the fill with
out interruption by the water. This
fill will result in the opening of the
streets through that district. A track
will be laid In to connect with the com
pany plant located at East Water street
and material will be taken from the
bottom of the river, gravel and sand.
It will take several months of con
tinuous work to make this fill, which
will average about 25 feet In depth.
This Is really the last big fill in .Cen
tral East Portland east of Grand ave
nue, except the south half of the
Asylum Ravine between East Taylor
street and Hawthorne avenue, which
belongs to the Hawthorne estate, and
which may be filled during the latter
part of the year. All the streets
through the old park tract have been
opened and it only remains to fill up
the ravine to Hawthorne avenue. This
is considered one of the most Impor
tant improvements projected for Cen
tral East Portland during the year.

EAST BURNSIDE AND UNION AVENUE.
EAST SIDE LINE WILL BE SEVEN
MILES LOXG.
Peninsula or North Portland Pipe
Will Be SO Inches in Diameter.
Projects Are Important.
Work has been started on two large
reinforcing water mains on the East
Side one to supply the Peninsula dis
trict, and the other to reinforce the
supply south of Division street. The
Peninsula or North Portland pipe line
will be 30 inches In diameter.
Foreman Edward Gray has started
work on this pipe line at Fremont and
East Thirtieth streets. It will be laid
to East Fifty-ninth, on Halsey to East
Sixtieth street, and thence south to
East Madison, where it will connect
with a pipe already laid to the higher
reservoir. This w ill complete the
reservoir end. It will extend down
the Peninsula in several directions,
one line running to the Columbia
Boulevard and tbe other branches ex
tending in other directions and reduc
ing to 16, 12 and 10 inches. This pipe
line is expected to take care of North
Portland tor a number of years. In all
it will be seven miles long when com
pleted. The other reinforcing pipe line now
being laid on East Fifty-second street
to Division from the south eventually
will be extended through to a con
nection with the higher reservoir. It is
a 24-inch main and is for reinforcing
the .districts south of Division street
including Sellwood, Woodstoek, Wav-erly-Richmond,
Kenilworth, and It will
be extended finally to Grand avenue.
These two mains are the most impor
tant projected for the year, although
there are others to be laid during the
coming months.
Tale Gets Gun-Record Men.
NYS8A. Or, March II. (Special.)
A shooting scrape occurred last week
near Mitchell Butte on tbe Owyhee
River, In which Hank (Chicago) Mo
Net succeeded in puncturing the foot
of his opponent, Kulp. Both have gun
records, but each seemed to be afraid
of the other as their record shows.
McNee fired seven shots and Kulp
several, only one of which took effect.

POLICEMEN TO BE GUESTS
Heights Residents to Fete Officers
Who Raided Ayers Place.
Policemen usually hear of It promptly
when they are dilatory In their work,
but recognition of good service seldom
Is given as it is to be accorded to
Sergeant Harms and Patrolmen Long
and Wise. In consideration of their
success In causing the arrest ot Lu
cille Ayers. the three officers are to
be the guests of honor at a compli
mentary luncheon at the Commercial
Club Thursday. The feast Is to- be
spread by the Willamette Heights Club.
Members of this organization have
been fighting for a year to bring about
the suppression of the Ayers placo,
which is in the midst of their exclusive
residence district, but not until the
men of the "moral squad" undertook
the job did they meet with success.
To Improve Expression
as Well as Complexion
(From Beauty's Mirror.)
No face is really beautiful that lacks
expression. Do you realize that contin
ual use of powders and creams tends to
spoil pliancy of skin and elasticity of
expression? Why not quit cosmetics
and use something better, which won't
clog the pores or make the skin either
dry or pasty? Ordinary raercoltzed wax
acts quite differently from any cosmet
ic. It wonderfully Improves any com
plexion, giving it life and expression.
By gradually, harmlessly peeling off
the thin veil of outer surface skin, it
brings to view a pure, soft, spotless
complexion, delicately beautiful and
youthful. Every druggist bas this wax;
it is seldom more than one ounce is
needed. It Is spread on nightly like
cold cream and washed off mornings.
In a week or two the transformation
is complete.
Wrinkles do not, of course, enhance
the expression. Neither do the pasty
things many use to eradicate them. A
treatment free from all objection Is
made by dissolving 1 oz. powdered sax
olite in H-pt. witch-hazel; use as a
wash lotion. This soon removes even
the most obstinate wrinkles. Adv.
