REPORT
Municipal Researchers Se
verely Criticise Depart
ment's Methods.
INEFFICIENCY IS CHARGED
Portland's Low Death Kate Due to
Climatic Conditions and 'ot to
Work of City Officials, Is
Opinion of Investigators.
That Portland s unusually low death
rats is due to climatic conditions and
not to the work of the ty Health
Department Is the statement of H.
Allen, of the New York Bureau of
Municipal Research, who completed a
report on the department yesterday
after an investigation into Its word
ings. The department Is described as
Inefficient. .
"The Health Department, reads the
report. "undertakes too little, spends
too little for health protection and
health education: does too little for
what It now spends: needs Increased
efficiency In usina- present powers and
present funds; but also needs additional
funds for the more extensive health
programme which Is imperative if
Portland would avoid a progressively
Increasing nuisance rate, sickness rate
and death rate.
-The city's low actual death rate is
not due to Health Department effi
ciency, but primarily to Its location,
topography, climate and distribution
, of population.
Time Records t Kept.
-Until January 1. IMS. there was for
this city of 356.000 but one sanitary
Inspector, also but one market inspec
tor. Part-time service only Is riven
to health, work by the three appointed
members of the Board of Health and
by other health officers. drawinK
11,700 per year.
"Just how much time the part-time
officers and employes give is not a
matter of record, nor is there record of
time spent by the II employes who are
expected to give full time service.
The Health Officer himself plans
-to be at the Health Office between i
and 8:30 and 10:30 ami 'In and out' at
different times of the day. Some health
work is done In the field and at his
-private office bow much is not a mat
ter of record. The city bacteriologist
receives $7S a month for work "in
mornings"; but for full time and over
time service, the corresponding an
alyslst known as the milk chemist, re

for at least three times as many hours.

over-time they give, is not a matter
of record.
"If the visits to the Health Offi
cer's private office or contagious cases,
particularly of children wishing to be
permitted to return to school, are ex
ceptions, they are exceptions which
should not be permitted, and which
represent not only an ineffective way
f checking contagion, but a menace
to public health.
"The clerical work of the Health Of
fice Is done by one woman clerk, re
ceiving $100 a month. This clerk Is
working without short cuts, which
jroper blanks and records would furnish."

SUIT ON FOR WIFE'S COST
Man Wants Money Alleged raid His
Fathcr-ln-Law.
SALEM. Or.. April 17. Special.)
All.glne that ha paid A. M. Brows, a
second-hand dealer in Independence,
$1000 for his 17-year-old daughter,
whom he says he married last Fall.
Dick Arslanian. a contractor of that
town, this afternoon retained Carey F.
Martin, a Iocal attorney and had him
prepare for a suit to recover the sum.
The papers will be filed in the Circuit
Court at Dallas tomorrow.
Arslanian is commencing the suit
now because, he says, his golden dream
of matrimonial happiness has been
shattered. Several weeks ago the first
break came, he says, the wife return
ing to her parents. A reconciliation
was effected. He says he took his wife
to Portland and purchased her glad
rags." and then they Journeyed home
ward to continue their happiness. When
they 'reached Independence, however,
his wife, "glad rags" and all disap
peared, he asserts, and he has not seen
her since.
Another unique feature of the case,
according to his story. Is that he was
a married man when he married the
Brown girl, and of this fact he declares
his father-in-law was aware. He at
tributes his marital troubles to the ac
tivities of his father-in-law, and not
only wants his money back, but saysi
he will begin a suit for divorce.
Mr. Brown, on the other hand, asserts.
It is said, that he did not receive any
money for his daughter, but that Ar
slanian owes him for furniture pur
chased after his marriage.
Mr. Brown formerly resided at Port
land, where it is said he studied to be
come a Methodist minister. Since leaving-
Portland, it is said, he occupied
country pulpits from time to time, but
has devoted most of his time to his
second-hand business. Arslanian Is an
Armenian.

LINE NEABS COMPLETION
CLACKAMAS ROAD TO RKACH
BEAVER CREEK IX MONTH.
Southern Railway to Be Put Into
Operation as Soon as Possi
ble, Says Official.
OREOO.V CITT. Or- April 17. (Spe
cial.) "Grade work and track-laying
on the' Clackamas Southern Railway
will be completed to Beaver Creek
within a month, if the present good
weather continues, and the road will
at once be put in operation to haul out
cordwood and timber," said Grant B.
Dimlck, secretary and chief counsel of
the road. Thursday. "Grading and track
laying' will be resumed Friday, and we
will keep five or six teams and a full
crew of men busy from now on In the
Maple Lane country and on to Beaver
Creek.
"It has been estimated that Oregon
City consumes annually between 30.
000 and 40,000 cords of wood, and Port
land takes from this district about 150.
000 or 200.000 cords. As soon as the
road is completed into Beaver Creek
we will commence hauling out a prac
tically unlimited supply of cordwood.
ties and timber, and this will be sup
piled to Oregon City and Portland mar.
kets. Our ties will practically all be
sent to the Portland market, while the
timber we bring out will be divided be.
tween the Oregon City mill and river
shipments for Portland mills."
Initial service on the ciaexamas
Southern will be maintained by steam
locomotives, though the electrification
of the line will be hastened. It is un
likely, however, that motors will re
place engines on the road until after
the line has", been extended beyond
Beaver Creek. The line Is being laid
wltn heavy standard material and will
bear both heavy traffic and high speed.
With the completion of the road to
Beaver Creek, a passenger service alst
will be inaugurated between that town
and Oregon City.

ONE inevitably calls to mind the oro
midlon about "extenuating circum
stances" when a thing Is a bit or a
disappointment or doesn't measure up
to expectations. The extenuating cir
cumstances to be remembered In com
paring "A Bachelor's Baby" with other
Helll? attractions that have preceded
it this season are that It is a "popular
priced" offering and that no press
agent has heralded It as the best or
even near best show of the season.
Every once in awhile, toward the end
of a season, when the theater will be
dark otherwise, the management will
book something not of the high caliber
of its predecessors In amusement. That
is what has happened in tne instance
of "A Bachelor's Baby." It opened, last
night and playa again tonight.
Francis Wilson, never a playwright
though alwaya a very splendid actor.
wrote "A Bachelors Baby ror nis own
histrionic exploitation, after he had
passed the greater part of two seasons
playing in mediocre plays other folk
wrote for him. It never had any par
Hcular drawing' power other than Mr.
Wilson's own excellent acting- and the
novelty of the child's role.
ubtract. then, Mr. Wilson, give tne
other roles Into "the keeping of poor
actors, and the result Is not happy.
Little Ednamae Wilson Is easily tne
most natural and talented member of
the small cast. She is the bachelor's
baby and plays with the unaffected
charm and sincerity of any little girl
who might be put in a similar position
in real life. Ednamae Is blonde ana
dainty; a reg'lar and genuine girl. The
story is not big enough nor has It
enough value to hi been stretohefl
out over three long acts It would go
nicely In playlet form.
Tha bachelor has an everslon to ba
bies and suddenly finds himself the
guardian of a 6-year-old baby niece.
The child mistakes him for her father
and in two acts he is won over by her
wiles and graces. There's a love
story, of course, and the advent of the
baby opens the bachelor's eyes to the
fact that bis home needs a housekeeper
and the baby a mother. So he weds.
For comedy the Kirl's mother is
dragged in' and the almost taboo
mother-in-law Jokes, not de rlgeur in
even vaudeville any -more, are tossed
carelessly from lip to lip. There's the
necessary family executor, who, as
Jerome K. Jerome says, never transacts
business in his office, but comes at all
hours of the day or night to chat about
"the legacy" and "the papers" In the
best parlor of the client. A butler
who hurries up and down stairs as no
butler who ever buttled hurried, a
club friend who runs in when conver
sation languishes tn say "Why, hello,
Tom; how are you?" and en aunt who
mothers the baby are the rest of the
cast.
One scene, the library of the bache
lor's home In Gramercy Park, is shown
for the three acts. The bill will close
tonight.

Giles Quimby, slayer of Tornow. and
the only man to face the terrible ma
niac within the past year and one-half
and live to tell the tale, was among
the first to view the body of the man
he had laid low. It Is thought that
he will receive the reward of 13000,
$2000 of which Is offered by the cdunty
and $1000 by the state, without any
trouble.
Quimby accidentally met up with
Blair and Lathrop, who were hunting
for Tornow on their own responsibility
and did not want to accompany them
when they decided to walk up to the
little cabin which they saw standing
on' the shores of a lake lying between
sections 31 and 19. township 21, range 7
west.
The scene of the triple killing was
not over a mile from the. famous Ox
Bow country, where Deputies A. V.
Elmer and Colin McKenzie were slain
by Tornow In March, 1912. Lathrop and
Blair were shot with an automatic re
volver, probably the Lueger which Tor
now took from the -body of McKenzie.

Tornow yesterday opened fire from

Lathrop had no chance. Neither was
able to bring his gun Into action. Blair
fell at the first shot. Lathrop at the

however, to Quimby, who fired every
