THE 3IORXING OREGONIAN, 3IOXDAY, JULY 30, 1917. 2 ROAD CONTRACTS WILL BE LET TODAY Important Projects for Which Bids Have Been Asked Com olete Year's Programme. BOTH ARE ON RIVER DRIVE Paving Started on Several Sec tions Under Awards Made Re cently and $1,000,000 Worth of Bonds Are Offered. Bids -will bo opened In the office of the Oregon State Highway Commission in the Yeon building on two of the most Important road projects to be attempted by the state this year. The first piece is for grading the Columbia River Highway between Cas cade Locks and Hood River a distance of about 20 miles. The work will re quire some heavy blasting through solid rock and a series of important grade eliminations. The route has been sur veyed by the highway engineering de partment and makes connection with the Mitchell's Point tunnel, which al ready is one of the famous showplaces on the Columbia River Highway. The engineers estimates place the probable cost of construction work at more than $400,000. It is aimed to get this grading com pleted before the Fall rains set in and allow it to settle through the Winter. It is probable that it will be paved next year. The highway already Is paved between Portland and Cascade Locks, so this proposed pavement would provide a paved stretch from Portland to Hood River a distance of 60 miles. Meanwhile plans are under way for grading and paving the highway east ward from Hood River to The Dalles. Lower River Work Billed. The other project for which bids will be opened today provides for grading and bridge building on the Lower River Highway between Goble and Astoria Most of the route bas been graded un der contract by the Columbia and Clat sop County Courts respectively. The most Important detail yet to be done is elimination of the steep hill Immedi ately west of Rainier. Several tem porary bridges .on the present highway are to be replaced, under this con treat, with permanent structures. The Warren Construction Company started work last week on Its paving contract between the Astoria city limits and Svenson, a stretch of 14 miles. When the grading, about to be done. Is completed, the entire route will be ready for paving. The highway al ready. Is paved through Multnomah County to the Columbia County line. Year's Work: Provided For, Oskar Huber also started work 'last week on his contract for paving the Rex-Tlgardvllle road between the Mult nomah County line through Washing ton and Yamhill counties to Newberg. This piece Is about 10 miles long and when completed this Fall will provide a paved road all the way from Port land to Newberg, 25 miles. Thts Is nearly half the distance between Port land and Salem. The Hassam Paving Company Is at work on the 10-mile contract on the Portland-Salem east side road in Marion and Clackamas counties. Be ginning at the county line a five-mile stretch will be paved In each direction. With the paving contracts let last week and the grading contracts that probably will be let today, the High way Commission will have provided for about all the work it can do under terms of the road bonding bill adopted by the people at the recent election. Expenditures of the Commission, under the terms of the bill, are to be limited to Jl, 000,000 this year. The contracts already let and proposed ag gregate nearly that amount. Bids on the sale of $1,000,000 worth of bonds will be opened by the Com mission on August 3. PACIFIC ROUTE SUGGESTED American Lake Troops Expect to Go to Eastern Battlef ront. TACOMA, Wash., July 29. According to unofficial information received at Camp Lewis today, troops will be taken by transport direct from Ameri can Lake to Vladivostok before the end of the year. From there they would be moved over the trans-Siberian Railroad to the Russian front In the hope of bolstering up the lines of the new republic. According to the message it would be safer and easier to send the trans ports from a Pacific port than to send them from a congested Atlantic ter minal and through the dangerous sea lanes of the barred zone. While no definite word has been re ceived, members of the ISth Engineers Regiment of the National Army, now awating call at Camp Lewis, believe that they will be sent to Siberia to keep the railroad open. PARKS AFFECTED BY WAR Attendance of Children Above Xears Has Fallen Off. 12 War has brought about a situation so serious that it has greatly affected the attendance at the playgrounds, parks and the band concerts this sea son, according to J. O. Convill, super intendent of parks. "We have had an Increased attend ance of small children in the play grounds this year," said Mr. Convill, "but there has been a very noticeable decrease In attendance of children above 12 years. People are taking the war too seriously to patronize the parks and the band concerts as heretofore, and many children are working on farms, etc, helping along In the gen eral situation." WASCO WHEAT YIELD GOOD Fall-Sown Grain Turning Out Be yond Expectations. WASCO. Or., July 29. (Special.) Howell Bros., west of Wasco, started hauling wheat Friday. They are har vesting a 400-acre field, the yield being between 25 and 30 bushels to the acre. E. E. Kaseberg started harvesting the first of the week on 1400 acres, the yield being 15 sacks, which is equal to 35 bushels. This wheat weighs 135 pounds to the sack and tests 60 pounds. All the Fall-sown wheat is yielding beyond expectations. The warm weath er cut the Spring grain about 50 per cent. The Hebrew word that has been translated as "glass" occurs only in Job xxviil:17, where.

T HE much-talked-of official Brit ish government pictures, shown throughout the United States under the auspices of an organization headed by W. K. Vanderbilt. were screened for the Portland public at the Peoples Theater yesterday. After wit nessing the five reels of "war as It really Is," Including Intimate glimpses of those modern Juggernauts, one can understand why "The Tanks at the Battle of the Ancre" has received such high praise. This picture actually tells the story of the great battle of the Ancre shows actual fighting as observed by the intrepid cameraman of the British army. "The Tanks at the Battle of the Ancre" Is a more intimate presenta tion of war than has ever been given through the action camera. It gives the spectator a lesson in modern war fare and an insight into the lives that American troops are to lead when they reach No Man's Land. The production graphically depicts war as a grim busi ness, not a spectacular adventure. Ar tillery roars Incessantly for hours, the enemy trenches are bombed, then comes the advance of the first line, the men scrambling from the trenches to trot across the shell-torn field to the wait ing "Fritzies." Back come the wound ed. Forward go the reserves. Then rest In the trenches of the enemy, or 'mid the ruins of what was once a village, now a mass of wreckage, a few shattered trees and shell holes in which a score of men might hide. Perhaps the most Interesting section of the film is that showing the tanks, the caterpillar giants. In action. A squad of men climb Into the machine, a steel door Is closed behind them and soon the tank begins Its laborious Journey towards the enemy trenches, tearing away barbed wire obstructions and crushing down trees. One sees the squat, toad-like contrivances, thrust ing two guns from twin turrets on each Bide, advance with the irresistible steadiness of an avalanche. Interest In the pictures is heightened by the personal appearance. In a brief talk, of William Poteet, Portland boy, who recently returned from service with the Canadians on the Somme. "Stop. Luke. Listen," Is one of the best of the "Lonesome Luke" comedies. Harold Lloyd and pretty Babe Daniels are the principals, Lloyd performing some athletic stunts reminiscent of "Doug" Fairbanks. , Liberty. A few morephotoplays like "Sudden Jim" and some of these kings of fllm dom favoritism will be forced to open their ranks to Charles Ray. This en gaging young chap "Juvenile" they call him Is going to cement the friend ship of thousands and add many others to his list of admirers when "Sudden Jim" gets through its tour of the country. "Sudden Jim" Is an uncommonly good melodrama, plcturlzation of a popular Saturday Evening Post aprlnl that Via " not suffered by Its translation to the celluloid. The play unfolds In the big timber country, the atmosphere of which Is forcibly suggested, while the production Is brisk with action and abundant with incident. Ray gives an excellent performance, while Joseph Dowling's characterization of a back woods politician places him nearly on a nar with Rav in sharincr acting honors. 1 Sudden Jim Is the son of "Clothes pin Jimmy" Ashe, who gives James Jr. $50,000, telling him to either play with it like a fool or make It earn more money. Jim plunges into business with a will to make good but opposition Is thrown In his way by a crooked busi ness man of Diversity, his town. Moran is the financial power of Diversity, but when he attempts to ruin Jimmy's busi ness by refusing to make good the con tract for lumber, he meets the type of resistance he has not calculated upon. For Jim gathers his men together and takes possession of the one-track rail road. Thanks to a girl he loves, young Ashe Is saved from destruction by a vicious plan of Moran's. Sylvia Bremer, who has been seen with Ray In recent pictures, plays the part of the moody, dissatisfied girl who wins the love of Jim Ashe. Georgia Stone. Lydla Knott and William Bell tngford are others in the cast. "His Sudden Rival," a one-reel com edy. Liberty News and special music by Organist Wallace complete the bill. Star. When Mr. Exhibitor wishes to flat ter a photoplay of the red-blooded type he compares its scrap with the epic combat of "The Spoilers." Like wise, when the author provides a story of "cutenesses," his heroine a harum scarum tomboy, Mr. Exhibitor asserts: "It's like 'Peggy.' " They do not flatter "Peggy" when they draw such comparisons; quite the reverse. "Peggy," which ranks along with "Civilization" as the most note worthy of all Thomas H. Ince produc tions, is the eight-reel picture which served to introduce Billie Burke, one of the most beloved of all actresses, to the film world. Chief among the entertainment in gredients of "Peggy" is the presence of Billie Burke. Miss Burke is a born screen actress, a player of fascinating vivacity. To Miss Burke and her pranks, whether she Is arrayed in dainty frock, pajamas or overalls, are added a wealth of comedy, a pleasing love story, an entrancing fairy tale and a flavoring of pathos. Peggy Is called upon to leave Amer ica to visit her uncle in Scotland, and the most amusing part of the whole story Is her arrival on Sunday. The good people are all- at church, a group of hard, undemonstrative, sanctimoni ous. Just-but-not-merciful Puritans. In the distance is seen a whirl of dust and a white streak .Peggy speeding the limit in her raceabout. Chrickens, geese and humans are scattered before the blast and Peggy hits the center of re ligious activity like a meteor Just as the kirk Is letting out. Such Is the warm-hearted and Im pulsive Peggy. She becomes modified, but she dares in the end to smash pro vincial egotism when an erring girl, one who loved not wisely but too well, Is brought to harsh social Judgment. In the end Peggy deserts America and marries the "Meenlster," taking upon herself the burden of caring for the people of the little Scotch hamlet. Sunset. t "Camille," that immortal Alexandre Dumas story of Parisian life, which has been presented to the public In so many' guises, has been artistically and graphically Interpreted for the film public by Clara Kimball Young and a company of World players.- Director Capellani has given "Ca mille" a lavish and faithful production. Miss Young does some of the best work of her career as "Camille," the Parisian adventuress whose love for camellias earns for her that title. Marguerite Gautier, or "Camille." Is a leading figure of the Paris underworld, with Count de.Varville, a man she does not love, supplying her with money. She is happy in her environment, al though her mode of living is wrecking her health, until she meets Armand, a country lawyer. She Is happy In this new-found love, the awakening of a real passion, until the father of Ar mand comes to her and begs her to break off the affair for the sake of the young fellow's sister. Because of her great love for Ar mand. Camille consents. She returns to de Varville and the old life, while Ar mand, heart-DroRen at what he con siders the unfaithfulness of his beloved, goes back to the country. Later l.e meets her In the company of De Vir vllle at a gaming table. Infuriated, he publicly insults her, flinging money In the face of the woman whose Jewels had been pawned to enable her to keep him by her side. The men fight a duel In which Armand is victor. Too late he la brought to a reallza tlon of the great love Camille held for klUU vi viio cicai luig u 1 1 i 4 him, a love willing to make fice for his happiness. His any sacri- happiness. His only con solation Is that he held her In bis arms as she expired. "Her Nature Dance," a two-reel Key stone comedy, is a merry burlesque on the aesthetic dancing craze, with squad of Keystone beauties prancing about the lawn and through the woods clad In diaphanous Grecian robes. Par amount Plctographs complete the pro gramme. Majestic. Valeska Suratt. William Fox star of bizarre costuming effects, who has been labeled by the Fox publicity staff "Empress of Fashion," Is the Majestic Theater headliner on the early-week programme. "Wife Number Two," a melodramatic tale of today. Involving a young wife and an aged hueband, a conflict of Interests, and the usual re sult, is the latest Suratt vehicle. The Hearst-Pathe News feature of the week is a pictured special of "Private" Hazel Carter, Salem, Or., girl, who started out with General Pershing for France, but was held up at Hoboken, N. J., when her male disguise was penetrated. Loveless marriages alliances fox convenience are flayed in "Wife Num ber Two." Miss Suratt is cast In the role of Emma Rolfe. a young girl, who has become of marriageable age with out a proposing suitor. The thrifty old father takes things into his own hands, and suggests that bis old phy-eician-friend. Dr. Bovar, marry the girl. The old doctor is much flattered, and, although he had never thought of marrying after the death of his wife, falls in with the plan. The guileless Emma feels honored, and blushlngly accepts her hand-picked spouse. So Emma Rolfe. a girl throbbing with life and youth, becomes Mrs. Bovar, wife of the drled-up. prosaiac doctor, a great man in his small sphere, an enthusiast for operations, of which he prates ceaselessly. The girl-wife finds no in terest in his work, while his mother has never forgotten the virtues of the first wife, no.- hesitates to tell wife No. 2 about them. The girl's youthful longing for pleasure seems wicked to this woman. A joyless home, a pre-occupied hus band, and a bickering mother-in-law. The rest follows as a natural conse quence. Tho girl becomes Interested In other men, accept their attentions, recklessly plunges her husband into debt, and then, when thee rash comes. Is ready to end her unhappy life. Columbia. "The Sawdust Ring," a film tale of circus life, with Bessie Love as Its star, is a photoplay with a good deal of humor and a smattering of pathos in the series of adventures which befall two kids, one of whom Is looking for a lost father. Miss Love Is given a novel role, that of a bareback rider. In her latest Tri angle vehicle. The story demanded a circus locale and Bessie and her com pany traveled with a three-ring circus for several weeks In California, ab sorbing the necessary atmosphere for the picture. Miss Love, as Janet, the little girl, gives a realistic performance, while Harold Goodwin, as the boy. Is so true to life that at times he Is ex ceedingly comical. The story tells of the life of Janet Magie, a lass who Is ostracized by the children of her own age. She finally runs away with Peter Weldon. a boy of the village. Their ambition Is to Join a circus, and after many peculiar experiences they do. The owner of the show. Colonel Simmons, proves to be Janet's father, separated from his wife years before by a misunderstanding. Janet is Instrumental In bringing hus band and wife together, and the girl Is made happy by having a real circus In the family. "The Dangers of a Bride," a Keystone comedy featuring Juanlta Hansen, the blonde beatfty, is another of those Mack Sennett affairs of action, fun and pretty girls. Screen Gossip. Anna Luther is now the owner of the Russian wolfhound, Boris, who took all the ribbons of his class in last Win ter's Los Angeles dog show. It will be remembered that at that time there was much dissension, which was aired in Los Angeles dallies, between the owner of Boris and another noted dog fancier over the fact that the variety of ribbons awarded the Russian wolf hound class all decorated the kennel of Boris. Miss Luther finds Boris partic ularly decorative especially In photo graphs with herself. Crane Wilbur, for the character of Devil McCare, the title of his newest Art Drama feature, got out bis old Stetson hat of several years ago. With the return of the Western story the Stetson is again an important part of the wardrobe of almost every featured male lead, and the new Wilbur picture is one of Western atmosphere.

Little Bobby Connelly has Just spent a week on location In Connecticut, with Director Charles M. Seay and other members of his Greater Vitagraph Com pany. The picture called for Bobby to be on a farm. An ideal spot was round and also a calf with histrionic Instincts. This calf went everywhere with the little star. If Bobby had to appear in a close-up. there was the calf's nose al most pressed against the camera, so Bobby generously shared the spotlight with the calf for a week. Francis X. Bushman has added 40 acres to his Maryland estate and now Bushmanor has 165 acres, valued at $150,000, exclusive of horses and cattle.

PROPHECY OF WAR MADE 300 YEARS AGO BY MONK AMAZES Remarkable Document, In Allegorical Form, Says "Anti-Christ Will Come From the Land of Luther" Details Almost Coincide With Those of Present Conflict. A PROPHECY, said to have been made S00 years ago by a French monk concerning a future war. is claiming much attention wherever read. It has been published at various times In Paris, London and finally in Lot Angeles. A copy of It is furnished by C. S. Dakyns, R. F. D. No. 1, Oswego. He re ceived It from Miss Marietta Thorpe, 2345 Telegraph avenue, Berkeley, Cal. The origin of this amazing docu ment is not very clear, but the manu script, in Latin, was found among the papers of the late Adrien Peladan, ajthor of a work on "Propnecies" and the editor Of a review, "The Annals of the Supernatural." It was found by his son, who had it translated into French, and it was published In the Figaro. Allegorical Term Explained. According to the son, M. Peladan came into the possession of the manu script through a monk of Saint Michel de Frigolet, near Tarascon. who, in turn, received it from an Abbe Donat, a learned priest, who died at a very great age. In deciphering the allegory it must be remembered that: France is represented by a Cock; England by a Leopard; Russia by a White Eagle; Germany by a Black. Eagle; Austria by the "Other Eagle." The Lamb stands for justice. merc and truth. The prophecy In full follows: "Several times has one seemed to "HELLO" GIRLS WED June Brides Among Telephone Operators Number 50.

The Tired Business Man took the re ceiver from the hook of his desk tele phone, held It to his ear a moment, and then shook the hook angrily. "Wish that girl would wake up!" he growled. Central was a bit dreamy. For one thing, it was 90 in the shade, and the air in the office was hot, despite two or three electric fans which stirred the atmosphere sluggishly. Two of the girls had fainted from the heat. But the girl who answered the T. B. M.'s telephone wasn't fainting. Her heart was singing a glad little song: "This is my last day in this old office, for I'm going to be married tomorrow This is my last day" And Indeed matrimony seems popu lar among the "Hello Girls." Cupid aims an extraordinary number of his darts at the exchanges where they work. For instance. The Pacific Tele phone Magazine for July announces the resignations of 50 girl employes on ac count of marriage. Probably the "Hello Girl" bride best known In Portland is Miss Mae Reamy, chief operator at the Marshall office. In this city, who became Mrs. F. W. Ull man.

"The veritable anti-Christ will be one of the monarchs of his time, a son of Luther; he will invoke God and call himself his messenger. "Prince of Lies" to Appear. The Prince of Lies will swear by the Bible; he will call himself the Arm of the Most High, chastising corrupted people. "He will only have one arm, but his Innumerable armies, who will take as their motto 'God is with us,' will seem like infernal regions.

"The antl-Chrlst will bo recognized by several marks; he will chiefly mas sacre priests, monks, women, children and old people. He will show no mer cy: he will pass along holding a torch like the barbarians, but invoking the name of Christ. "His false words will resemble those of Christians, but his acts will be those of Nero and the Roman perse cutors; there will be an eagle in bis coat of arms, and there also will be one in that of his confederate, the other wicked monarch. "But this one is a Christian, and he will die cursed by the Pope Benedlctus, who will be elected at the beginning of the reign of the anti-Christ. "Priests and monks no longer will be' seen confessing and absolving the combatants, because for the first time priests and monks will fight with the other citizens, and also because. Pope Benedictus having cursed the anti- Christ, it will be proclaimed that all those who wage war against him will be in a state of grace, and should they die, will, like martyrs, go straight to heaven. All Humanity la Peril. "The Pope's 'bull" proclaiming these things will make a great sensation, and will cause the death of the monarch, the anti-Christ ally. "In order to conquer the anti-Christ, more men must be killed than Rome has ever held. It will require an ef fort from all lands, for the cock, the leopard and the white eagle would not suffice to overcome the black eagle if they were not helped by the prayers and devotion of all the human race. "Nrver before has humanity been In such peril, for the triumph of the antl Chrlst would be that of the demon. In whom he is Incarnated. "For it has been said that 20 cen turies after the Incarnation of the Word, the beast in his turn would be incarnated and would threaten the eartn with as many evils as the divine incarnation had brought it graces. World Will Be Red. "Near the year 2000 the anti-Christ will appear; his army wilk surpass in -numbers anything herebefore imag ined; there will be Christians amongst his hordes, and amongst the defenders of the lamb there will be Mahometans and savage tribes. "For the first time the lamb will be entirely red; in the whole of the Chris tian world there will not be a space that will not be red; and the heavens. the earth, the water, and even the air will be red, for blood will flow In the sphere of the four elements ai the same time. "The black eagle will throw itself upon the cock, which will lose many of its feathers, but will strike heroically with Its spur. It would be soon mini hi lated were It not for the help of the leopard and Its claws. "The black eagle, which will come from the land of Luther, will surprise the cock by another side, and will in vade one-half of the land of the cock. Great Battles to Be Waged. "The white eagle, which will come from the North, will surprise the black eatrla and the other eagle, and will completely invade the land of the antl Christ from one end to the other. "The black eagle will be forced to leave the cock to fight the white eagle, and the cock will pursue the black eagle into the land of the anti-Christ to helo the white eagle. "The battles waged until then will be small in comparison to those that will take place in the land of Luther, be cause the seven angels will at the same time pour fire from their burners on the Impious land (image taken from the Apocalypse), which means that the Lamb will order the extermination of the anti-Christ race. "Beaut" Will Became Parlous. "When the Beast sees he Is lost he will become furious: during months the beak of the white eagle, the claws of the leopard and the spurs of the cock must harass him. "Rivers will be crossed over masses of dead bodies, which in some places will change the course of the waters. Only great noblemen, superior officers and Princes will receive burial, for to the carnage caused by firearms will be added those who perished By lamina and Dlasrue. "The antl-Chrlst several times will ask for peace, but the seven angels who precede the three animals, defend ers of the Lamb, have declared that victory shall only be accorded on the condition that the anti-Christ be crushed, like straw on the threshing floor. "Executors of the Lamb's Justice, these three animals cannot stop fight ing as long as any soldiers remain to the antl-Chrlst. "The reason the sentence of th Lamb is so implacable Is that the antl Christ has pretended to be a Christian and to be acting in his name, so that if he did not perish, the fruit of the Redemption would be lost, and the gates of hell would prevail against the Savior. Antl-Chrlst Will Lose Crown. "It will be seen that it is not a hu man combat which will be waged where the antl-Chrlst forges his arms. The three animals, defenders of the Lamb, will exterminate the anti-Christ's last army, but the battlefield will become as an altar of sacrifice, larger than the greatest of cities, and the corpses will have changed Its shape by raising In it chains of mounds. "The anti-Christ will lose his crown, and will die demented and alone. His empire will be divided Into 22 states. but none will have either a royal house. an army or vessels.
