Convicts Snow Fervor.
"That band of convicts played a
march that was really a symphony so
fervent was their enthusiasm," he went

IDA ADAIK.
The Baker players have had several leading women in the ten or
more years of their popularity in this city, but it is a pretty safe
statement to make that few of them have gone away and left a more
lasting and pleasant impression behind them than has Ida Adair, who
has twice before played special engagements at the head of the com
pany, and .now comes back for her third appearance, which will start
tomorrow 'matinee and continue for the rest of this season. All the.
other well-known members of the company will continue with Miss
Adair In the cast, and the opening play will be that delightful char
acter comedy, "Mary Jane's Pa," which Max Figman appeared In here
with such success. Miss Adair has a bright, breezy personality, a
world of charm and good looks and, above all. can act. Being able to
secure her at this time of the year was a streak of good luck on
Manager Baker's part, and ono that will doubtless be equally appre
ciated by his numerous patrons.
E
Norwegian Steamer Herakles
to Load for Calcutta.
AYMERIC TO TAKE LUMBER
Five Other Vessels Are Reported
Engaged tor Six Months to Carry
Coal for Government Histor
ian Sails '.Nest Week.
Transactions in the charter market
vesterday included the fixture of the
Norwegian Bteafner Herakles to load
here for Calcutta, and she will be or
dered to the Columbia on her arrival
at Victoria. B. C, from Halifax. The
vtsse! is of 2730 tons net register.
There was another burst of charter
ing, according to a report, which had
to do with the fixture of five vessels
for the Pacific trade for a period of
six months. There has been specula
tion as to what business they will
handle, but the accepted explanation
is that they are to carry coal for the
Government, as delivery is to be on
the Atlantic side and redelivery on the
Pacific. On . reaching this Coast the
carriers will no doubt be taken for
grain and lumber business.
A single engagement made was that
of the British steamer Aymeric, by
Davles & Kchon. from Newcastle to
Honolulu and return from the Colum
bia River to Australia with, lumber.
The schooner George E. Billings, which,
went ashore at Botany Bay, near Syd
ney, Thursday, bound from Portland
with lumber, had been fixed the day
befure to carry a coal cargo from New
castle here. She is expected to be
floated next week.
The Norwegian steamer Mathilda
got away from the harbor yesterday
with lumber for Sydney. The steamer
Historian, of the Harrison line, will
sail next week for Europe with wheat.
She shifted yeBterday from Montgomery
dock No. 2 to Columbia dock No. 2,
while the Hamburg-American liner
Sithonia hauled up from the Portland
Flouring Mills Company's mill to the
Albina dock and Is to sail this after
noon for the Orient and Europe.
DIRECT UXE IS FAVORED
Hamburg-American Must Be Shown
Before Making New 3Iove.
Sentiment created at a Commercial
Club luncheon Thursday to Captain
Kotzte. master of the German steamer
Sithonia of the Hamburg-American
service, that the company exclude
Puget Sound ports from its itinerary
when bound outward and receive there
for a guarantee of a full cargo for
every carrier, is crystallizing toward a
realization of the plan, and the mat
ter will be placed before the Hamburg
American directorate.
Before a direct service will be given
from Portland, which would mean that
flour, wheat and other shipments that
are made in' quantity and represent a
large sum of expense to consignees in
the way of extra interest on bills of
lading and insurance, would be deliv
ered within three weeks as far as
Hongkong, against 2S days as the pres
ent schedule provides by way of the
northern harbors, a thorough test of
the business offered will first be made.
In the case of the Sithonia she has not
been given all the cargo promised.
Some say it Is because she arrived
sooner than expected and stuff ready
was loaded on the Harpagus. Another
excuse is that more space was engaged
than required. At any rate it is neces
sary that she proceed via Puget Sound
to complete her load, and it is yet to
be demonstrated to the satisfaction of
her owners that steamers will be given
all they can carry here.

There are three box lanterns missing

More Aids Are Located to Benefit

Further changes in navigation aids
on the lower river have been called
to the attention of mariners by Henry

Columbia River Lights established,
changes in buoyage:
Main Channel Mid-channel buoy, PS, 1st

BAR SURVEY IS FINISHED
New Data and Chart Will Be Avail
able in Another Week.
For the next week there promises to
be uneasy speculation as to the result
of the 1913 survey of the Columbia
River bar, which was completed yes
terday by R. E. Hickson, assistant en
gineer. Corps of Engineers, U. S. A.,
and men under him, and the party will
reach here today. The 1912 survey
showed 27',4 feet of water and since it
has been held by mariners that not
more than 25 feet was available at low
water.
Mr. Hickson will make a report to
Major Mclndoe, accompanied by a chart
cf the soundings, as soon as the data
can be compiled and whether the dredge
Chinook Is returned to work on he
bar depends on what the survey indi
cates. It is the general opinion that
everything possible should be done this
season to increase the depth, or In an
other year some influence will be felt
from the north jetty, which will be
under way before Winter, and by
Spring it is hoped to have some of the
vessels here that use .the Panama
Canal.
Marine Notes.
H. C. Baker, district freight agent
of the Arrow line, reached the city
yesterday from San Francisco to go
over the territory. The steamer Camino
of that fleet, was an early arrival in
that service and is expected to be
loaded for the return Tuesday.
Some cargo will be left on Ainsworth
dock this morning when the steamer
Beaver sails for California ports. She
will have a full load and there will be
virtually a capacity list of travelers
on board. The steamer Bear is due
in this afternoon from the south with
a large number of passengers and
average cargo.
As the cargo of the schooner Daunt
less is in place she will be ready to
leave down from St. Helens this after
noon, in tow of the steamer Ocklabama.
The barkentlne Amazon has arrived at
the plant of the St. Helens ShipbulldT
ing Company to undergo repairs. The
schooner Luzon, which is in the upper
harbor, has cleared for San Francisco
with a cargo measuring 800,000 feet- The
steamer Multnomah got away yester
day for the Golden Gate with 900.000
feet.
Captain L. Veysey was advised yes
terday that the gasoline schooner Anvil
bad been successfully floated from the
spit at the mouth of the Siuslaw and
it is presumed that she was towed in
side for temporary repairs. The vessel
went ashore April 11, when bound for
Siuslaw and has since sustained con
siderable damage, but it is believed
she can be repaired in a short time
and restored to service.
As the dredges Columbia and Willam
ette, of the Port of Portland fleet, are
duplicates the former suffered little
delay after breaking the crosshead on
her cutter engine Thursday, for an
extra crosshead for the Willamette
was forwarded to Sand Island and in
stalled so she resumed operations yes
terday. The Willamette, which is
working In North Portland harbor, is
credited with having lowered the dredg
ing record Thursday in pumping 22,500
cubic yards of material in 22 hours
and 30 minutes. In 23 hours Wednes
day she discharged 23,000 yaTds.
Having begun to fall slightly the
Willamette River here is to continue
to drop slowly until Monday, accord
ing to the Weather Bureau summary.
The stream was at 14.8 feet above zero
yesterday morning.

Get Your Blood Purified With S. S. S.
' and You Won't be Tortured Like Thin.
The skin is but a net work of fine
blood vessels. And It is a perfectly
natural consequence that any influence
in the blood that is a condition of ill
health makes its first appearance in
tho skin. There are certain medicinal
properties that follow tho course of
the blood stream and the influence of
these properties is that of an anti
dote. This is why S. S. S., the best
known blood purifier, has such a posi
tive action in the skin. There Is ono
ingredient in S. S. S. which peculiarly
stimulates cellular or glandular activ
ity to select from the blood or from
this fine net work of blood vessels in
the skin, those elements which it re
quires for regeneration.
Thus pimples, acne, eczema, lupus,
or any other blood condition that at
tacks the skin or seeks an outlet
through the skin is met with the anti
dotal efTect of S. S. S.
This is why skin troubles vanish sc
readily and why they do not return.
Under the influence of S. S. S. this
fine net work of blood yecsels 'in the
skin is constantly taking from the
blood the nutrition required for
healthy tissue and the cause of disease
is Just as constantly being removed,
scattered and rendered harmless. These
facts are more fully explained in a
book on skin troubles sent by The
Swift Specific Co, 137 Swift Bldg..
Atlanta, Ga. You will find S. S. a
on sale at all drug stores. Get a
bottle to-day and banish, all skin af
flictions. '

the hair follicles, in time causing th
sealp pores to close and the scalp to
become shiny. Then, it is behev4
nothing will revive the growth. If

atop falling hair; and if any human
