STORM WARNING RECALLED
Mind Attained 6 8-Mlle Gale at
Xorth Head Theater Crowds
Buffeted by Breezes In
Down-Town Streets.
Fair, with rising- temperatures, is
the forecast for today, and indications
are says the weather man, that the
tempestuous blow of Saturday night is
j entirely over. The wind blew 68 miles
-n hour at North Head, but yesterday
storm warnings were ordered discontin
ued. Windows rattled and doors slammed;
ftardens and shrubbery were laid low
by the terrific wind storm about 10
o'clock Saturday night.
Many an enthusiastic grardener
awoke yesterday morning' to find his
peas, tomato plants, and such like
blown flat on the ground by the wtnd.
The fact that rain accompanied the
wind was probably the only thiriK that
f saved some of the garden from total
loss.
Residents of the East Side suffered
the heaviest loss. One gardener re
ported that his rose bushes and entire
Karden plot had been devastated, iilany
large limbs were broken from trees in
the Piedmont district.
It was reported at police headquar-
f ters that a large plate-glass window in
the building occupied by the Baker
Auction House, Park and Tamhill
streets, was demolished by the wind.
This was the only damage reported
k on me west sine, although many of
1 the gardens in South Portland were af
fected.
The storm started shortly before 10
o'clock and lasted for about two hours.
The theater crowds had a hard time
making headway on Broadway and
"Washington street. Straw hats were
blown through the air and everywhere
people could be seen wildly racing
j after their headgear.

DAMAGED
High Wind Scatters Fragments of
Trees Over Streets.
SALEM, Or.. June 24. (Special.)
Salem's streets and lawns are littered
today with limbs, branches and por
tions of trees swept off in the path of
a -terrific wind which swept through
the valley last night. One magnificent
big tree, directly opposite the State
Capitol on Court street, was snapped
in two in the middle like a match, and
the Capitol grounds are strewn with
wreckage from the trees.
Probably the worst damage done was
to the Breyman fountain, a huge street
monument presented to the city in
1904. Despite its massive proportions
the top part of the fountain was thrown
to the pavement by the cyclonic wind
and practically shattered to -bits. This

Peoples.
MOTION picture starring tours,
these "appear in person" affairs
are of two varieties successful
and unsuccessful. The star either in
creases his following, physical charm,
personality or performance proving a
valuable asset, or loses prestige and
followers because of a disclosure of
weakness Mr. Ardent Admirer never
imagined In existence.
The starring tour of Miss Myrtle
Stedman, Paramountt luminary, comes
emphatically under the first named
classification. Her 10 weeks' tour, in
augurated at the Peoples Theater yes
terday, promises to increase her popu
larity in the invaded territory at a
ratio never before equaled by a twin
kler of the silent drama.
"It's a cinch she doesn't have to
work in pictures for a living." was the
apt way one fan expressed himself
after he had listened to Miss Sted
man's vocal interpretation of "The Sun
shine of Your Smile" and "Mighty Lak
a Rose." She doesn't appear in one of
those monologues, so often disastrous
from bashfulness, exaggerated modesty,
or lack of self-possession, or, worse
yet, a too vivid expression of conceit.
Miss Stedman sings really sings.
That's the surprising part of her ap
pearance. One expects to see a beau
tiful woman, handsomely gowned the
films promised that but to hear a star
of the silent drama burst forth into
melody that might be envied at an
operatic revel, that's the surprise in
store for the public. She possesses a
splendid dramatic soprano voice and
sings with a clarity of note and a depth
of expression that brushes away any
thought that Myrtle Stedman was
forced Into pictures because she' lost
her voice.
Miss Stedman's engagement will con
tinue until Tuesday night, her appear
ances being four each day, twice aft
ernoons and twice evenings, with a
change in numbers dally.
The photoplay contribution to the
programme is an excellent one, consist
ing of a five-reel mystery tale,. "The
Page Mystery," with Carlyle Blackwell,
June Elvidge and Arthur Ashley
among the cast principals, and the
third of those happy "Lonesome Luke"
two-reel comedies, called "Lonesome
Luke, Plumber."
Some splendid "snow stuff" contrib
utes to the charm of "The Page Mys
tery," which involves a murder and -a
climax, with one person charged with
the crime and three others asserting
their guilt. The love Interest is pres
ent, with Blackwell playing the part
of a sacrificing young Englishman,
who leaves home and returns with an
American bride.
Sunset.
The Sunset Theater is presenting an
ambittoui and dlversied early-week
programme. Yesterday the bill con
sisted of that five-reel Bessie Barris-cale-Charles
Ray success, "Plain
Jane"; the uproarious Keystone come
dy. "Villa of tho .Movies": and "Let's
All Be Americans Now", a film novelty
based on popular songs with a vocal
accompaniment, or interpretation.
Today comes yet another number,
Alaska Blacklock. In person, with two
reels of pictures depicting the Alaskan
wilds and including a lecture-accompanied
glimpse of the vast coal fields and
gold mines of the territor;
'Plain Jane" is a picture of good en
tertainment value, light in drama,
stronger in comedy, and strongest in
its stars, who are Bessie barriscale
and Charles Kay. It's a "slavey
photo-tale with a college atmosphere;
-Miss Earriscale playing the role of
rlain Jane, girl of all work in a col
lege-town boarding house. Ray is the
student of the "plugger" variety.
Plain Jar.e aspires tJ be as the col
lege girls, wear good clothes and have
good time; but this is denied her.
She must be content with the few
crumbs of interest bestowed upon her
by the poor student, the man she wor
ships in secret.
Then the town photographer steps
in, likewise opportunity in the shape
of a college girl beauty contest, and
when Plain Jane is frilled up. photo
graphed, and her picture sent along
with the others to the contest mana
gers, the inevitable result is that she
is proclaimed the beauty of them alL
Then a kindly interest ripens into
ardent devotion and Jane, plain no
longer, accepts the student who of all
the others had cast a ray of sunshine
into her gloomy life of boarding house
slavery.

I I V w , ill A. . Lee Interrupts Brain at
" " Apparently he was hungry, for when A. D. Lee. of La Pine, approached
he stood his ground and continued to munch at his meal.
He did not attempt to molest Mr. Lee and Mr. Lee reciprocated in kind., Mr. Lee was in town yesterday
and presented the picture to the North Bank Railroad.
Mr. Lee and Clarence Tomes, of La Pine, and some others were camping out on Paulina Lake. A violent
thunder storm came up suddenly. A bolt of lightning struck in the lake and a few moments afterward about
50 big trout, dead - and some torn to shreds by the bolt, floated to the surface of the' lake and were washed
ashore.
In a day or two the decaying fish made the atmosphere so unpleasant that Shlntaffer, the lodgekeeper,
burled the fish in the sands. Bear in numbers came after the fish, especially in the evening, but this big
fellow was a little hungrier than the others and stood his ground when he was interrupted by the pedestrian

handled those subtitles, for to them is
due no small share of the success of
the photoplay. As it is the absence of
the spoken dialogue does not detract
in the slightest from the comedy star's
power to stir the spectators into gales
of laughter.
If Cohan has not earned the title of
the most versatile man in the amuse
ment world, his entrance into the ranks
of film stars clinches it for him. He
has been a vaudeville player, song
writer, actor, playwright, producer, and
now the latest, "cinema star."
The story of "Broadway Jones" de
picts the adventures, country and met
ropolitan, of "Broadway Jones", so
called because of his intense longing
for a glimpse of the bright lights o
Gotham. He falls heir to his dad's in
terest in a chewing gum factory and
when his uncle, in charge of the plant,
refuses to revise his business methods,
Jones cashes in on his share and hits
the trail for Broadway. There he sets
a terrific pace, goes broke, and is ready
to resort to a marriage with an old-enough-to-be-his-mother
widow in or
der to replenish his bank account. Then
comes the death of his uncle, the return
to the home town, the defying of the
gum trust, which seeks to absorb him,
and the escape from the widow and
wedding with the girl of his youthful
love.
Majestic.
"Her Secret," the latest Vitagraph of
fering at the Majestic Theater, is a
strong dramatic photoplay, vital with
that important element of well-sustained
suspense, and constructed on
rather a dangerous "sexy" foundation.
The theme has been deftly handled, the
presentation of the hectic passages
causing very little offense; the direction
is excellent, photography is good and
the photoplay boasts of a cast includ
ing Alice Joyce. Harry Morey, Robert
Kelly, Mary Maurice, Patsy De Forest
and Kittens Reichert.
Clara Weston, daughter of a minister,
and on her way East to accept a re
sponsible position, misses her train at
a rough and uncouth Western town and
is forced to stay there over night. Fen
ton and a number of civil engineers
visit the town and Fenton pays marked
attention to Dazey, the dancehall queen.
In order to get rid of him she gives him
a hotel room number at random. Dazed
with drink, he seeks out the room and
the next morning Clara Weston leaves
the town with a broken heart, the vic
tim of circumstances.
Later a baby is bom and the secret is
protected by Dr. Howard, a kindly man
who sympathizes with the girl's misfor
tune. Clara accepts a position with
Fenton, now in the East, the girl being
entirely ignorant of the identity of the
man who had caused her suh woe.
Later they are married and h r little
daughter is brought to the home as an
adopted child. Through a letter Fen
ton learns of his wife's supposed mis
conduct and denounces her. However,
when he learns that he was the one re
sponsible he acknowledges his guilt. Is
forgiven, and the family is reunited.
"His Final Blowout." a funny Fox
film comedy in two reels, and Hearst
Pathe News, including many timely war
scenes, complete the programme.
Columbia.
"A Roadside Impresario." tUe latest
photoplay .vehicle for George Beban,
that sterling interpreter of Italian char
acter, is a mixture of comedy, pathos
and novelty. The presence of Bruno, a
bear .who is almost as good an actor
as "Papa" Beban, makes it an unusu
ally good offering for children, who
will be convulsed at Bruno's mixup
with the angry bees, resenting an inva
sion of their hive.
Perhaps that is not so much of the
subtle Beban in this picture, but no one
could say that this detracts from the
entertainment value of the flve-reeler.
It has more comedy than usual, a good
plot, and a logical ending, even though
it does not meet "audience demand."
Guineppe lives with his little "bam
bino" and a small pet bear. Bruno, on
the quaint Italian Coast. A shipwrecked
man is seen offshore and Guiseppe res
cues him, but in so doing is himself
carried out to sea and far away. When
he returns he finds that the stranger
has taken away the little glrL
' Later, in America, Guiseppe and
Bruno get arrested for invading a pri
vate apiary, overturning the hives and
wrecking the place in the excitement
of being stung by the angry bees.
Meantime Adelaide (Julia Faye) be
friends Guiseppe and is rewarded by
having a plot against her affianced,
Craig Winton, exposed. Blade, Gibbs
and Lizzie "frame up" Craig with a
fake flashlight picture of Craig and
Lizzie in a compromising position. They
meet in a cafe to settle the account and
a half-burned acknowledgement of the
plot reaches Guiseppe, working in the
kitchen.
Guiseppe takes the paper to Adelaide
and her father, recognizes in him the
man he had saved years before, but is
persuaded not to disclose his identity
as Adelaide's real father. He makes
her happy with her sweetheart and
with Bruno goes on his wandering
way, sad, yet knowing that his little
girl is happy and well provided for.
Two Triangle comedies are also on
the programme.
Dealers throughout Australasia note
an increasing demand for women's hats
and sport coats of American make.

mission to Conduct Hearing.
LUMBER MEN TO CONTEST
Railroads Will Present Arguments
to Support Claim for Proposed
15 Per Cent Increase on
All State Lines.
The Oregon Public Service Commis
sion will conduct a hearing in Port
land Tuesday on the proposed 15 per
cent increase in railroad rates for
which the carriers have petitioned.
While the hearing will begin Tues
day It Is probable it will continue for
several days.
The railroads will present an ex
haustive array of facts and figures to
bear out their contention that the cost
of operation has increased to such an
extent in the last few years that an
increase In rates is Imperative.
Elaborate tables of comparative fig
ures have been prepared by operating
officials showing how the cost of
every kind of material entering into
railroad maintenance and operation
has Increased in the last five years. '
The case of the carriers will be pre
sented jointly through a battery of
attorneys, including Charles E. Coch
ran, of the O.-W. R. & N. Co., Charles
A. Hart, of the North Bank System,
and Ben C. Dey. of the Southern Pa
cific It is probable that J. P. O'Brien, op
erating vice-president of the. O.-W. R.
& N. Co., will be the principal witness
for the careers.
Lumber manufacturers and other
shippers are preparing to contest the
proposed increase. A. C. Dixon, man
ager of the Booth-Kelly plant at
Springfield, will be the principal wit
ness for the lumber people.
The application for an increase in
state rates is in conformity with the
application for a 15 per cent advance
in Interstate rates now pending before
the Interstate Commerce Commission.
The railroads have asked for a similar
increase In every state in the Union,
as well as In the country at large.

Men Welcome
Mother's Friend
The husband Is often worried OTr
the condition of his wife during her
period of expectancy. The thought
that he is helpless to relieve her phys
ical suffering and discomfort causes
him great distress.
"Mother's Friend" Is a safe ex
ternal lubricant which penetrates to
the fine network of nerves beneath the
skin of the abdomen. It has a marked
tendency to relieve the muscular
strain to which these broad, flat ab-
dominal muscles are subjected.
If husbands will secure for the ex
pectant mother a bottle of "Mother's
Friend" from their druggist, they will
find that they have aided to a very
great degree in relieving much of the
discomfort during pregnancy and
pain at the crisis.
The mother should apply "Mother's
Friend" every night and morning,
right up until the time of giving
birth to the child. By aiding nature
in its pre-natal work the mother will
experience much less pain.
Every mother should have the free;
book prepared for users of "Mother's
Friend." It concerns her health and
well-being during and after the crisis.'
