IiEAD OF SIX BKAT FIRST HEAT Valentine, in Grand Circuit Finale, Overcomes Bad Start. SYRACUSE, N. Y., Sept. 17. Three amateur .and three professional races made up the programme of the. closing day of the Grand Circuit meeting at the State Fair this afternoon. Although no records were broken, there were several surprises, chief among which was the victory of Lizzie Brown in the 2:09 trot. Finishing sixth in the first heat. Valentine took the bay trotter out in front in the next three heats and was never headed, al though Murphy, with Myrthful, was a contender all the way. In the 2:10 pace Queen Bess won in straight heats, after finishing second in the first heat. Jean and Ashlook were the contenders. Ames' Al Bingen, cleverly piloted by Lon McDonald, won the 2:16 trot without trouble in straight heats. : The three amateur races were keen ly contested and. with the exception of the free-for-all trots, brought out good fields. WILLIAMS COLLEGE BEST HARVARD CARR1"ES OFF CHAMPION SHIP TITLE EASILY. Leonard Beekman, of Princeton, Deaten In Philadelphia 6-2, 0-1, -2, With "Winner at Top of His Game. PHILADELPHIA, ept. 17. R. Kor ris Williams, representing Harvard, won the intercollegiate lawn tennis singles championship on the courts of the Merion Cricket Club at Haverford today by defeating easily Leonard Beekman, of Princeton, in the final round- The scores were 6-2, 6-1, 6-2. Williams held the intercollegiate title in 1913. Last year it was held by George M. Church, of Princeton, who has since graduated from college. Williams played his best tennis of the tournament in the second set and showed flashes of the form that earned him the National honors a year ago. Beekman kept trying all the time, but never had a chance to turn the tide in his favor. Only six games out of the 23 went to Deuce, three in the first set, one in the socond and two in the third. Williams' service was too strong for Beekman, while the varied attack and fine generalship of the Crimson star fairly swept the Princeton contender off his feet. Of the 95 points scored by Williams 38 were earned, while Beek man earned only 16 of his 58 points. Of the 16 points scored by tho Prince ton player In the last set only one was earned. Harvard also clinched the doubles title yesterday, when two Crimson teams, Williams and Harte'and Curtis andCaner, won out in the semi finals. They will meet in the final round tomorrow. Harvard now needs only two points to secure permanent possession of the intercollegiate tennis trophy, having five points to Prince ton's one. The old trophy was won by Princeton in 1912. FOOTBALL SEASON' OX TODAY Two Gaines Will Be Played on Penn sylvania Gridiron. NEW YORK, Sept. 17.. The Eastern intercollegiate football season will open tomorrow with the playing of two games on Pennsylvania gridirons. At Carlisle the Albright College team will line up against the Carlisle In dians, while at Lewisburg, Pa., Buck nell University will have the Blooms burg State Normal Church even as op ponents. Owing to intense heat of the last week the teams are not in condi tion for fast football. Chief interest will center in the showing of the Carlisle eleven, which begins the 1915 campaign minus the services of poach Warner, who is now instructing the University of Pittsburg football squad. Albright never has been a menacing opponent against Carlisle in past sea son, but the score run up by the In dians always has been accepted as a reasonably accurate forecast of the strength of the visitors for the season. DOLLAR-DAY ENTRIES 111 LONG LIST OF MERCHAXTS EXPECT ED TO CO-OPERATE IX PLAN. Chamber Bureau Assists In Advertising; Thursday Bargains and Window Decorations Urged. , It is the hope of the Retail Mer chants' bureau of the Chamber of Com merce that several hundred retail es tablishments will have entered early next week to take part in the campaign for "Dollar day." which will be ob served Thursday. Between 150 and 200 registered with the bureau yesterday and many more are expected before Monday morning, when the names of all those registered will be published. Present plans of the bureau con template making Portland's first "Dol lar day" a forerunner of similar cam paigns In the future. Merchants who have registered have agreed that on "Dollar day" they will make special sales of genuine bargains in which merchandise ordinarily selling at prices slightly higher than $1 will be of fered for $1. Members of the bureau are busy call ing o merchants in an effort to in crease the numbfrr of those who will observe the occasion. They arefoint ,ing out the advantage of "Dollar day" as a trade stimulus and are urglnsr that special display advertising in stores and other means be used for call ing attention to the day. The bureau will do a certain share of advertising to promote "Dollar day" and to bring it to the attention of the buying pub lic. Thousands of shoppers, it is expected, will take advantage of the special bar gains and it is hoped "Dollar day" will be adopted as a permanent fea ture for the future. How In It Done? Punch.

TWO ARRESTS ARE MADE Es-Offielal and George L. Wool ette Held for Firing Latter's ' Hoihe and Are Thought Im plicated With S. W. Cnrrler. With the arrest last night of Monte Keeney, formerly a lieutenant in the Portland fire department. District At torney Evans believes he has Tin covered ' another "arson ring," which has been responsible for at least seven or eight fires in Portland within the last two or three years. Keeney and George L. Woolette are held on the specific charge of burning down a house at 259 Lombard avenue on May 3, 1914. Woolette was taken into custody yesterday. Keeney was arrested at 6 o'clock last night by Deputy Sheriffs Beekman, and Christof fersen as h'e was- leaving a train at the Union Depot- He is held in the County Jail under $4000 bonds. The arrest of Keeney and Woolette followed a long investigation by Fire Marshal Jay Stevens and Deputy Dis trict Attorney Charles W. Robison. Strong evidence against these two, and perhaps against others, is said to have been obtained, but the officers are maintaining a strict silence as to the nature of this evidence. This is the third "arson ring" un covered by District Attorney Evans" office, working with- Fire Marshal Stevens, within a year. The men ar rested yesterday are said to have had connections with Sanford W. Currier, the contractor and builder now in the County Jail under an arson indict ment as head of a coast-wide "arson ring." The grand Jury, it is said, has al ready had under consideration some of the evidence against Keeney and Wool ette. Currier himself testified before the grand jury early this week, just before an indictment was returned against him. Keeney was a member of the fire department for more than five, years and was a lieutenant when he was dismissed from the service. He has been employed on trains near Portland as a baggage solicitor lately. The hou?e which the two men are charged with burning had been occu pied by Woolette. but he and Mrs. Woolette were absent at the time the fire occurred. The methods used in this case and in several others which the Fire Marshal has been investi gating, were similar to those of the alleged Currier gang. Fire Marshal Stevens said last night that only 700 fires- had occurred in Portland so far this year, whereas dur ing the entire year of 1915 there were 2000 fires. "I think we'll hold it down to 1000 fires this year, or Just half what we had in 1914." said Mr. Stevens, "and these three big arson c&ses will ex plain away a lot of last year's fires, too." FRILLS TO CURE APATHY Dainty Gym Dress Designed by Dr. Cummings at Varsity. UNIVERSITY OF OREGON, Eugene, Sept. 17. (Snecial.) Gymnasium cos tumes daintily frilled with pique cuffs and collars, is a cure for general stale ness and dislike for athletics which the modern college woman seems to suffer from when required to do "gym" one hour of three selected week days. This theory was advanced by Dr. Mabel Louise Cummings, new head of the physical training department for girls at the State University. In former years the lemon-yellow athlete of the fair sex used to shuffle through each "dread," garbed in a som ber dress of coal black. Evidently there were not enough frills. Now all is to be changed, according to Dr. Cum mings' plans, and by the time that her newly organized classes are under way, interest will have revived for the girl loves to dress. The new instructor is a graduate of the University of Chicago and the Rush Medical School and received her physi cal education at the Boston Normal School. Before accepting the position as head of the Oregon department she occupied a similar place at the State Normal department at the University of Illinois. - OLD WIRJS ALLOWED Land Products Show Association Gets Permit to Vse Material. At the request of the ?h amber of Commerce and other organizations the Land Products Show Association will be permitted this year to -use a large amount of electrical wiring at the show which is not strictly in accord ance with tho city's electrical wiring code. Special permission to use the old material was granted yesterday by the Municipal Board of Electrical Appeals. , It was asserted that it would re quire several hundred dollars to pur chase new wire to comply with the new code and that the old wira would do just as well, inasmuch as the show is of a temporary nature. REPAIRING BID IS $1.90 Warren Company Offer Is Lowest for Skidmore-Street AVork. The Warren Construction Company submitted the lowest bid to the city yesterday for the replacing of pave ment in Skidmore street from East Twenty-fourth street to East Thirty- third street, torn up some time ago to enable the laying of the new 30-inch trunk water main, leading to the Ver non standpipe. The Warren company bid is $1.90 a square yard for the work. The only other bid is $2.25 a yard, submitted by Oskar Huber. The paving strip is about five feet In width and nine blocks In length. A total of 1288 yards of pave ment will be required. Wfe Seeks Keen Revenge. ST. LOUIS, Sept. 12 Mrs. Agnes D. Grant, 40 year3 old, Is planning to revenge herself upon her husband, Frank M. Grant, president of the Grant Undertaking Company, whom she Is suing for separate maintenance, by going into the undertaking business herself as his business rival. In her suit for separate maintenance which her attorney, Paul Moberly, filed in the Circuit Court, Mrs. Grant names Mrs. Lillian McMlnn. SUNDAY BASEBALL SAFE AUTHORITIES WILL SOT INTERFERE EXCEPT OX COMPLAINT. GameR Are . Illegral Under Old Law, But Non-Observance Is Be lieved Public Will. Sunday baseball in Portland is ille gal, since the Supreme Court recently held the Sunday closing law valid, said District Attorney Evans yesterday. But nobody's going to stop Sunday baseball or do any of the other drastic things called for in the ancient law. "If somebody makes a complaint, we'll have to proceed," said Mr. Evans. ' But otherwise we will not take the bull by the horns and close up the city." Officers generally regard the Sunday closing law as an ancient, time-honored affair, a sort of a derelict clutter ing up a quarter page of Lord's Oregon Laws Just because no Legislature has ever stepped aside to eliminate it. The people of Portland apparently don't want it at all. They expressed their opinion forcibly on the subject two years ago. A city ordinance very much milder in its provisions and rnt nearly so inclusive in its scope was voted down 23,502 to 10,297. That or dinance practically closed nothing but grocery stores. B,ut the state law, the old original Sunday closing law, of the vintage of 1S64, is decidedly blue beside the pro posed ordinance. Listen: "If any person shall keep open any store, shop, grocery, bowling alley, billiard-room or tippling-house for the purpose of labor or traffic, or any place of amusement on the fir,st day of the week, commonly called Sunday or Lord's day, such person, upon convic tion thereof, shall bo punished by a fine of not less than $5 nor more than $50." The Legislature of 1S64 passed this law and then everybody apparently for got about it, or winked at it. In 1903 a few stirring consciences awoke to its presence on the statute books, and it was amended like this: "Provided, however, that the above provision shall not apply to theaters, the keepers of drugstores, doctor shops undertakers, livery stable keepers, butchers and bakers, and all circum stances of necessity and mercy may be Rheumatism Easily Relieved by Cleansing the Blood S. S. S. Gives Quick Relief by Toning Up the Blood Tes, but how? A natural question. The answer is that you must cleanse your blood by stimulating It to healthy, vigorous action, so that it , will throw off the germs and impurities that cause Rheumatism. The action of the wonderful blood purifier, S. S. S. is to practically renew the life blood, give it vigor, stimulate the flow, making it throw out the germs and the poison impurities. "The excruciating pains of Rheumatism, whether It is the shooting, stabbing Sciatica, the gripping agony of muscular Rheumatism, or aching arms.and legs that break up sleep will bo entirely relieved by S.

"Places of amusement." in the opin ion of District Attorney Evans, includes baseball games. The law exempts livery stables from its provisions, but. lacking a prophetic vision, the Legislators of 1864 did not exempt garages. So, if you are out rid ing on Sunday and run out of gasoline, you will have to push your car home or else go to a livery stable. A'garago cannot serve you. MEW BUILDINGJS PLANNED It. K. Wassell Company to Put Up Apartment-House on West Side. rians have been prepared by the R. F. Wassell Company for the construc tion of a four-story-and-basement brick apartment building on the south east corner of Twentieth and Morrison streets, which has been filled in since the destruction of the old Exposition building a few years ago. The new building will be patterned after the $125,000 Tudor Arms apart ment building erected recently by the same company on the site of Judge George H. Williams' former home, at Eighteenth and Couch streets. The site on Twentieth and Morrison streets includes more than a quarter block of land overlooking Multnomah Field. The proposed new building will be divided into four, five and six-room apartment suites. The owners of the site for the new apartment. F. W. Leadbetter. Percy H.
