"Potash and Perlmutter" to Be Gives Thanksgiving; Week, and Other Successes Are on List. A prominent theater-goer was heard to remark upon the many entirely new plays (to stock) that the Alcazar Play ers are offering, and have announced S " .f - t At A : Albert McGovern, Lending Man in "The Law of the Laid," Comlnff to Baker. for future offerings at the Baker Thea ter this season. Not only are they new to stock, but, as far as Portland and the country west of the Rocky Mountains is concerned, they are en tirely unfamiliar except through the medium of the press and magazine articles. One reason for this is the great scarcity of "road companies" the past lew years. Kesuit, that atter a season in New York, Chicago and a few of the bir metropolitan centers, what is to be come of a play? If there are no com panies going out the play goes either to the storehouse to mold and rust, or is released for stock. Nearly every big New York success of the past, two years has been re leased for stock. Including "The Law of the Land," which will be seen at the Baker next week, this being George Broadhurst's powerful drama which ran all season at the Forty-eighth-Street Theater, New York. For Thanksgiving week a big pro duction of "Potash and Perlmutter," founded on the famous Montague Glass stories In the Saturday Evening Post, will be given, followed by that tre mendous success "The Song of Songs," which ran three weeks at the San Francisco Alcazar last Summer. Then comes "The Miracle Man." Only one play on the list is a stock repeat this year, "The Trail of the Lonesome Pine." now announced for Christmas week. It is an unusual record. rKougli Survey Made in Days of Mayor Simon Is Still Held Cost Is Estimated at $1,500,000. Special Iievy Suggested. Interest in a tunnel through the hill. to tap the rich Tualatin Valley, Is being revived by prominent Portland business and professional men. During the tenure of office of Mayor Simon a commission of five men, among them George W. Joseph, was appointed to look into the feasibility of the con struction of such a tunnel, to have pre pared an engineer's survey' and esti mate of the cost of construction, and go over other details Incident to the tunnel's construction. A rousrh aurvev of the tunnel was made by Newell, Gossett & Walsh, lo cal engineers, and maps prepared that are still In the possession of Mr. Joseph. The tunnel ended there, however, one of the contributing factors of Us fail ure being? the opposition or large r.asi Portland residential property owners. Legislature May Act. Mr. Joseph. Julius L. Meier, C. Ben Riesland, and others have done what thev are able to to Interest some In the construction of the tunnel, and, if pos sible, some legislator will be approached who win take me pruposmun i" State Legislature at its next session and have, the plan worked out on a business-like basis. Mr Jn.cDli susraests that a tunnel- assessment district be created and the land affected taxed so many dollars per acre to insure the beginning at least of the construction. He asserts that there are many people In the Tualatin Valley eager for- the construction oi in tun nel. and feels that If such were built, the tolls on streetcars, automobiles and other vehicles would aid materially in the liquidation of any debt incurred above that for which the assessments would pay. It Is understood that several of the civic organizations in communities In the Tualatin Valley have considered the matter seriously lately. Hillsdale Committee Named". The Hillsdale Community Club has appointed a committee, headed by I. N. Flelschner. that will go Into the detail of cost of construction, location of site. etc., shortly. Samuel C. Lancaster, designer ana builder of the Columbia River Highway, has also become Interested in the proj ect, and the maps prepared several years ago are now in his possession. He expects to have a conference with Mr. Joseph soon over the situation. Mr. Joseph suggested to Commissioner Dieck recently that his department pre pare pltfns, so that business men would have something definite upon which to work. The construction of the tunnel, dou ble-tracked and heavily timbered, Mr. Joseph thought, would not cost more than $1,500,000, although he had forgot ten the exact figures named in the en gineer's estimate.

REVIEW WHIT GRANTED HEARIJfG OVF.R DLTVBAR ESTATE SET FOR DECEMBER. Alleged Sweetheart and Creditor Seeks to Administer Property Left to Boy of 13. A writ of review of the action of County Judge Cleeton in the appoint ment xf ronald McLeod as adminis trator of the estate of the late George H. Dunbar was granted by Circuit Judge Gatens yesterday, and a bearing was set for December 4. The writ .was granted on the petition of Martha LT. Cook, alleged creditor and sweetheart of - the deceased. Mr. Dunbar died in Portland October 7, IS16, leaving un estate valued at 110,000. His sole heir Is a son, Robert Dunbar, aged 13, who is living in Maine. On October 17 Miss Cook filed a peti tion for appointment as administrator, as Mr. Dunbar died intestate, asserting that she was the chief creditor of the estate, having a claim of J1250 against Mr. Dunbar. Judge Cleeton denied her petition, after listening to her explanation of promises made her by Mr. Dunbar, who, she said, was to have married her later in October, had he lived. On October 30 B. D. Perkins, a cousin of the deceased, filed a petition for letters testamentary. His petition was also denied, as he is a resident of the state of Washington. The appointment of Mr. McLeod by Judge Cleeton was subject to the approval of relatives, and was satisfactory to those concerned with the son's interests, but not to Miss Cook. SHERIFF'S FORCE IS BUSY Deputies Xot Increased but Volumo of Work Grows. Though he Is operating with the same number of deputies as were un der Sheriff Word, Sheriff Hurlburt Is handling a steadily Increasing volume of business, according to figures com piled n his office. During 1914 163 Sheriffs deeds were iFSued. In 1915 222 were issued, and to November 15, 1916. 290 had been issued. Returns on executions were 428 In 1914, 616 in 1915. and 760 to date In 1916. Service fees have increased from $12.- One-Minute Talk on Home-O wning Number Three vr -y , 2 t.t r "Why Has My Wife Always Urged Me to Buy a Home?" In the rush of business life a man all too quickly loses sight of many of the factors which are so' vital to a woman's happiness. In many cases, they are seemingly unimportant things, but to a woman they mean far more than man realizes. As an illustration, how long has it been since you sent your wife a bouquet of flowers or took home a box of chocolates? Do it tonight. She will ap preciate it far more than its monetary value. The same is true with a home, and in propor tion to its cost. Man may hope for a home of his own, but never to the extent that woman longs for it. In this modern day, with so many excellent plans for financing home construction on a monthly in stallment basis, a man should search for the best proposition available, and immediately arrange to build that home which he and his family so cer tainly deserve. jtarae oipartmeni IADD ESTATE COMPANY.
