It is not yet known whether 'Hypo crites" will be shown before a Portland public,- as it has not yet passed the board of censors, although at the pri vate exhibition for the benefit of the Mayor and Commissioners and the heads of various clubs and organizations the close of the picture was marked with spontaneous and continuous applause.

He declared that an hour and a half had been al lotted to createfan atmosphere favora ble to "Billy" Sunday. "Don't be a 'sorehead,' " yelled a "brother" in the midst of Rev.

Mr. Knotts continued; "In our meeting of Methodist minis ters we were given no time to express opposition. It seems to me that this matter should irot be 'railroaded' through. I have heard that a religious gathering can be more unjudicial than any other in that generally only one side is given a chance. We ought to be given a fair opportunity to discuss this question. I protest at any 'steam roller" methods. ' Rev. O. J. White, of Lynn, declared that "Billy" Sunday said "many things that grated on my sensibilities. The resolution was finally adopted.

PEACE AND PLENTY SOUGH I ' ?'- -trip wi cover but the members who want to go say Ohio City Much Aroused About Evan sellat'a Reported Remarks,. But Hesitates aa to Law. CLEVELAND. O., March 15. Fre quenters of Cleveland's 3-cent munici pal dancehalls are looking to "Billy" Sunday to furnish them a beautiful big dancehall in Gordon Park. The evangelist, who is busy saving souls In Philadelphia, is not expected to make the city a present, of the new dancehall as a free-will offering, but the onthusiasts who enjoy the dizzy whirl of the tango (expurgated) at the municipal dancehalls are praying that the city will sue him for 150,000 for the remarks be made recently about these Institutions. "Cleveland's city dancehalls are so rotten the Sheriff had to close them up," the evangelist is reported to have said in a sermon Sunday. When news of this reached Park Superintendent Alber he chased up the City Hall stairs four steps at a time, burst Into the law director's office and demanded that the city start suit for (50,000 damages for slander. 'Cleveland's municipal dancehalls are models, have the indorsement of most of the Cleveland women's organ izations and are under the watchful care of a dance- supervisor all the time," he asserted. "We have been grossly libeled and should seek re dress." Tho Board of Control, with Mayor Baker as chairman, have considered the question of a suit. The board was unable to agree. Law Director Stock well still has the question under ad visement. Some of the members got in touch with Sunday by telephone and made careful inquiries concerning the pro priety of his making a retraction. I repeat the statement now and I don't care bow many suits you start," the evangelist is reported to have said. I said the dancehalls run by Cleve land became so bad at one time and resulted in so much rowdyism that they had to be closed. I am against dan cing, I don't think cities should have anyhing to do with It-' The Board of Control wiped Its brow and resumed its deliberations. It could not agree on the suit proposition, the bone of contention being the legal ity of the proposed proceeding. How ever, the members were a unit on one point: If the suit is begun and if the suit is won the $50,000 will be used to erect a new dancehall. There was no dis-1 pute about that. BRING US YOUR FILMS.

The recent order of the Interstate Commerce Commission making Seattle and Tacoma the only Pacific Coast terminals In Washington under the new adjustment of trans continental rates caused some conster nation in several of the other cities along the Sound. Everett immediately telegraphed to Senator Jones, and the Senator laid the subject before the Commission. A day or two afterward Bellingham, too, awoke to the fact that she was likely to lose business if she did not get busy, and. accordingly, the Senator received another telegram. The Com mission is now considering the claims of the latter city, but has sent a letter to Senator Jones suggesting the course for Everett to take in order that that city may be designated as a Coast ter minal, and the Senator expects a simi lar letter in regard to Bellingham with in a day or two.

NEW YORK, Mar. 14. Abraham Fair field, son of a professor of Lawrence College. Appleton, Wis., was arrested in Jersey City recently on complaint of E. A. Ransom. Jr.. secretary of Jersey City Children's Society, charged with soliciting alms. Mr. Ransom describes Fairfield i the "prince of panhandlers." He is six feet and dresses in the latest style. Foot boxing tourneys, there were few knockouts, and nearly all the contests went the limit of the Amateur Athletic Union rules. Louis Bernstein, Sheridan Athletic Club, thought more of his gold tooth than the decision in his match with Al Kaufman. Trinity Club. Bernstein held a long lead until the third round. when Kaufman woke up and one of his blows knocked Bernstein's gold tooth to the floor. The latter kept his eyeton the arti ficial molar and thereby received sev eral hard jolts, which had him stagger ing at the end of the bout. Kaufman, however, could not overcome Bern stein's early lead and lost the decision. The final bout came to an untimely end when Bernstein caught William Sorrenson a hard wallop on the jaw and dropped him. He remained on the canvas for a time and the referee awarded the bout to Bernstein.

Vera Figner, one of the most widely known leaders of Russian Socialism, has been arrested at Unghenl, near the Roumanian frontier, according to Humanite, although her brother, an artist, had obtained permis sion from the Russian Minister of the Interior, for her to return to her native land from Switzerland. Vera Figner, who Is 74 years old, has been constantly under the surveillance of the Russian police since her release In his lecture on optimism at the White Temple Church last Thursday night the noted Dr. Russell H. Comvell said: "Men Who Own Their Own Homes Are the Best Citizens. The Desire to Become Wealthy and Independent Makes a Man Careful of His Living and Develops Good Habits." The above is the keynote of the two classes this organization serves. In the first place it is the inherent desire on the part of every individual to own his own home. His future forms the incentive to do so. That is why with our guaranteed homes built better for less we are able to claim a wonderful future for our enterprise. On the other hand the man who is careful of his living and has good habits appreciates that to become wealthy he must place his savings or surplus capital where original profits are possible and not be satisfied with a pittance which he receives when someone else makes use of his money. This enterprise is co-operative, and investors share equitably. The opportunity is better than anything else. The risk is less. It is a business proposition for business men and women.
