Delegation or About nu Proleata to Coancll Asalnat Mr. Daly's Plao to Save br XllBhtlnc Tlirm. Commissioner Daly'a neW policy of economizing in water bureau expendi tures by failing to put in Are hyur:ints on new water mains has brought him into disfavor in the Lents district, where $30,000 has been expended for new mains without a single fire hydrant having been installed. A delegation of Lents residents, headed by F. R. Peterson and H. A. .;arnell, appeared before the City Coun cil yesterday to protest against the plan of building mains without hy drants, and to ask that the nre hydrants be installed and that the Lenta volun teer Are department be given some fire hose to connect with the hydrants. The Council promised to investigate. For the first time the construction of fire hydrants is being omitted when water mains are laid. This is to enable Commissioner Daly to make a financial showing with his water bureau. It costs $75 to establish each fire hydrant. By leaving oft 500 of them in a year the water bureau will show a "savlnff1 of $40,000. "The water bureau recently finished building an eight-inch main for a dis tance of about a mile and a half through Lents." said F. R. Peterson before the Council yesterday. "The cost of the main was about $30,000. It extends through a well-settled district, yet not a single Are hydrant was Installed. We want Are brotection and we urgently request the Council to take steps to have these hydrants installed." The Ients delegation comprised about JO business men and others of the dis trict. They asserted that, yince their district was taken into the city two ycurs ago thry have been slighted. The anti-flre hydrant policy is being followed throughout the city. Although water main construction has been car ried on almost steadily since last Sum mer, there has not been a Are hydrant put on since last November. This ia a period of ix months. Ordinarily there would be from 200 to 300 hydrants in stalled within that length of time. This Is one of the "economy" moves of Commissioner Daly. It is on a par with the recently adopted policy of pay ing for all water main construction fromlnoney derived from bonds, instead of using current revenue for that pur pose, and then checking the amount thus diverted as a "saving." CLEAN KITCHENS REQUIRED lirstaiirant Fire Causes Propaganda by Marshal. Accumulations of grease and dirt in kitchens of Portland restaurants will not be tolerated longer, according to an announcement by Battalion Chief Stevens, Fir Marshal of Portland, fol lowing a blaze in the Wigwam Restau rant at 2S3 First street, yesterday morning.

W. lecturer, spoke on "Solidarity, Labor's Road to Freedom," Thursday night in Arlon Hall, at Second and Oak streets. The inefficiency of the trade union &s a means for the improvement of the working classes was a feature of the lecture. Last night Miss Flynn spoke on "The Eight-Hour Day" at Fourth and Yamhill streets. Miss Flynn has been a picturesque Agure in the labor troubles of recent years. She has figured prominently in the textile strikes at Lawrence, Mass., and in New Jersey, as well as in the demon strations at Spokane and in Montana. NEW MOVIES INVITING "THK MOTH AND THE FLAME" IS IXI SIAL FEATURE AT STAR. Soasrt Bill Varied, "With ''The Come- bark' Leasing'. While Majestic liaa Submarine Film. Thrilling and -with a happy ending is "The Moth and the Flame." pre sented by the Famous Players Film Company, under the direction of Da& iel Frohman, at tho Star this week un til Sunday. Stewart Blaird plays the lead, with Irene Howley as the jilted woman and Adele. Rey as the girl he almost marries. While in England Edward Fletcher, disregarding his promise to wed pretty Jeanette Graham, flees to America. Five years later 'he is ardently wooing Marion Walton, the pretty daughter of an unscrupulous financier. The wedding is taking place when Jeanette breaks in upon the scene. The audience is left to guess that Fletcher and Jeanette later are married. A clever Universal film, "They Were Heroes." is full of ridiculous ariests and amusing episodes. The travel pictures this week show fishing near Key' West. Hy Mayer, of Puck. - has, as usual, his funny car toons. "TIIE COMEBACK" IS AT SUXSET Two-Act Drama Is Interesting and Clever Comedies Amuse. Another well-blended programme of the usual high standard of the Sunset Theater opened there Thursday for the rest of the week. Ralph Lewis and "Billie" West appear in the feature number, "The Comeback," an absorbing two-act drama of a man's Aght to pro tect a woman's good name. Miss West plays a difficult role with vivacity and realism. "Shorty's Trouble Sleep," also in two acts, is not only amusing but full of the liveliest action. A wagonful of gold, a girl in trouble, a robber band and a good "bad man" enact important roles in the plot, which is well sus tained. "Fatty" Alexander, the Portland boy, appeared in his first big comedy part in the two-act Keystone comedy, "Gus sle Rivals Jonah." He convulsed hla audiences, but the censors thought he was too funny and withdrew the play. Another Keystone, and a comedy drama. "The Broken Window," replaced It. rXDKR-SKA SCKXKS CXIQCE Majestic Submarine Kilms Show Caverns on Ocean Bed. Few films are as instructive and fascinating as the deep-sea pictures which, in spite of the large audiences that have seen them this week, are still being viewed by numerous eager Majestic patrons. The supposedly im possible was accomplished when, with the help of the Williamson brothers and by means of their submarine tube invention, the vast sea meadows and the wonders thereon were photo graphed. The coral caves and abundant vege tation more than 100 feet below the surface are like revelations in a dream. An interesting array of old Spanish castles and' beautiful scenery is also shown. The battle between George Williamson and a man-eating shark is only one of the thrilling things that transpire in this marvelous deep-sea picture. Ruins of a blockade-runner and an ancient Spanish vessel with unique markings are shown in the films, and divers are shown at work far below the ocean surface. Massachusetts Society Mets.
