V 1 o,Bifvpi; New Store Talks Number Twelve It may be of interest to the public to know that the fifteen large glass plates for the front show windows in the new store are the largest ever brought to Portland. The risk and the great cost of handling made this a very precarious matter. All the plate glass used in this huge building was brought here in special railway cars known as "gondolas," which allow the case to rest within a foot of the road bed and thus, in spite of the great height, clear obstructions such as bridges, tunnels, etc., en route. The plates are packed three in a case and it required fourteen men to handle each plate and set it in place in the building. All the exterior windows in the new building are glazed with the best quality polished Amer ican plate glass, with the excep tion of the transom lights over the show windows, which are prism plate glass, polished on one side and with prismatic cor rugations on the other to reflect the light back into the store. All elevator and stair en closures are glazed with wire glass, which is as nearly fire proof as any material can be. There are about 25,000 separate lights of wire glass used in the interior of the store. 1 to 2 Inch Laces, Yard 5c Collection of 10c to 25c Grades Piatt Valenciennes, Net Top and Shadow Laces, widths 2 to 5 inches.

No agreement was reached yesterday between the county and the United Railways on the freight franchise be tween Portland and Oilton. and the use of the railroad to Llnnton is still held up on this account. O. M. Clark and others have asked a passenger fran chise over the same tracks to Linnton, and this cannot be ;ranted until the terms for the freight franchise are agreed upon. Mr. Clark and his associates have appeared several times before th County Commissioners in an attempt to forestall any possible move to adopt the freight franchise without passing on their own. If one franchise is adopted before the other, they point out. the first one will have precedence. Mr. Clark seeks to establish a t-cent fare to Linnton. and wants both fran chises adopted In one resolution. LINNTON WELLS CLOSED Health Department Finds M-nnr Using Contaminated Water.
