Adv NEW LEADING MAN OF ALCAZAR PLAYERS IS OF DASHING TYPE Edward Everett Horton Is 31 Years Old, Likes Handball and Other Sports and Has Varied Career as Actor -Name Is Listed in Many Clubs. BY LEONE CASS BAER. IRST of all, Edward Everett Hor ton, new leading man of the Alcazar Players, is a regular fel F low, one of the boys. If he weren't an actor he'd be a business man of some sort and a general good sportsman. He belongs to so many clubs, these big worth-whilo clubs in New Tork and way points, that it sounded like the tail end of an obituary notice when 1 glanced over them. All I can call, to mind now are the Lambs, the Actors' Equity and Actors' Society and the Columbia Players (he's a Columbia Uni versity man) and the Drama League (which I do not hold against him for he can always get out of it) and enough yacht and motor and odds and ends of athletic clubs to fill a "eolyura." He's adding to the list all the time and his application is already in to become a member of the Multnomah Club and he has taken up his abiding place at the University Club. Besides which he be longs to the Phi Kappa Psi and says one of the nicest experiences he has had since he reached Portland is look ing up his fraternity brothers. Actor I Athletic. The way I know he's a regular chap by all these signs. He is aji out- oorsy person and plays handball till he's black in the face and yells his earl off when the home team is win ing at baseball. He's a works-when- e-works sort of man and when it's aytime he just lets loose and skally- oots arounrl.to beat all. lie roared and laughed last night in s dressing-room at the Baker, be- ween acts of his picturesque Billy Sundaycsque rolo in "'Hit-thc-Trail- ioiliriay." when we dug out these bits f information. Ho doesn't volunteer ny information. It has to be abso lutely pried out of his system by a il-igent process known to tho inter lewing craft. No. girls, he isn't married and isn't even registered to be a benedict. 'I had an awful time living down a Mrs. Horton and several little Hortons which a press story attached to me Elmira, N. Y-, one season in stock," he sighed. "I never did learn the mount of little Hortons, nor did 1 ver learn from whence sprung the woman who bore my name, but the process of denying them was arduous o say the least." Mr. Horton just escaped the draft. He's just si-ooted past 31, but he's so patriotic that if I'd wanted to write It, his whole Interview would be about the war. Two of his brothers have gone. One is Dr. George Horton, who eld the chair of bacteriology in Ore on Agricultural College a few years go and the other is a lad who is a irs-t lieutenant now on his way to France. Mr. Horton speaks of Portland as a 'defiant city." "It stands so superbly alone, so challenging in Its bigness and its beauty," he says. Already he has been for a ride on our wonder highway and for a hike over the hills about the city, and he has been in our midst but week. It's a far cry from a pedagogue to a handsome, dashing leading man. Which John C. Atwood Dies in Tacoma. The friends of John Couch Atwood, an old-time resident of this city, received word yesterday of his sudden death Monday in Tacoma, where, of late, he has spent much of his time. His fu neral will be held Thursday, October at 10 A. M. at the Church of Our Father Unitarian), Broadway and Yamhill, Rev. Thomas L. Eliot. D. D., and Rev. William G. Eliot, Jr., offi ciating. The interment will be in the family lot at Riverview Cemetery. John Atwood came to Portland years ago with his parents, James T. Atwood and Mrs. James T. Atwood, and his sister, Abby L. Atwood. The latter were iden tified closely, from 1867 until their deaths, with the First Unitarian Church. John Atwood had no near relatives in the West. Until he retired from active duty he practiced his pro fession as a civil engineer, first in Portland, afterwards for some years in Seattle. Police Hear ok "Wjui-Gabdss" Raid. R. Meyer and D. Day complained to the police yesterday that some person had made a raid on their "war garden at Baltimore and Ldison streets ana had dug up all the potatoes on the little corner lot which they had watched over so carefully during the Summer months. Investigation dis closed the fact that there is a dispute as to the ownership of the lot. A man who claims to own the property, but whose name was not made public, ad mitted digging up the potatoes and refuses to give them up. He contends that he did not give the two gardeners the privilege of making garden on his property. Frank L. Smith Is Cutting Prices Stili. Lower. Read this: Hamburg stk.. 13c. Soup bones, 5c.

K-trard Rvrrtt Horton, Kearflns Man at Baker Theater. Is not to say that pedagogues may not be either handsome or dashing, but I've never seen them that way. They usually arc not handsome and do not j dash. However, Mr. Horton was des tined by loving family for a chair of something or other in a college with an alphabet after his name, and his wildest theatrical dissipation a-sitting on the campus watching the "drayma" Club put on their own Improved ver sion of "As You Like It." But man proposes, you know, etc. Tha germ of acting had inoculated the youthful Horton after one mad, wild session as a hoyden in a class play at Columbia., and he hit the trail for the real thing. I laughed till I was weak in the knees as he recited the story of the jobs he'd tackled one after another as juvenile man In companies that stranded, and left a trail of failures from Kalamazoo to Lapland. Fact. He was in one weird company that tried to carry the fires of th "drayma" into Newfoundland, and went on the rocks in a week. "My father." said Mr. Horton. "still cherishes and has in a frame the tele gram I sent to him at this point in my career. It says simply: "Broke. Send fifty. Your loving son, Edward." Mr. Morton's change of luck eame with an engagement with Louis Mann. "For three years." he said, "we fought, bled and died together. He was a pitiless taskmaster, but I learned all I - know of technique from him. He went out of his way to teach me; and I always give him credit for my train ing." After serving his apprenticeship under Mr. Mann, Mr. Horton went into stock, and he's been in demand from one end of the acting world to an other. He's young and ambitious and an artist. We are mighty lucky to have him with us this season, and he says he's glad to be here. So that makes it unanimous. JUNGLE PLAYERS GO OnPHEUM FEATURE TO BE SEEN FOR LAST TIME TODAY.

TODAY Proposed Law Slakes Provision for Purchase of Wood In Quantities, Stumpage and Already Cut. Ordinances providing a way for the city to go into the fuel business will be before the City Council this morn ing for passage. The measures will authorize advertising for bids for 50. 000 cords of wood "In stumpage"; SO, 000 cords of fir already cut; a contract for cutting 60,000 cords; a contract for hauling the wood; a. contract for de livery of 10.000 tons of coal, and a con tract for furnishing 15,000 cords of slabwood. The ordinance Is so framed that the city can buy in amounts up to the 50, 000 cords, but docs not have to take that amount unless it so desires. The date for opening bids has not been set tled as yet, but it probably will be within the next two weeks. The bids will give the Council figures on all phases of the fuel business so that it can be undertaken in the most practical and economical way. Stump age may be purchased and a contract awarded for cutting and hauling it, or wood already cut may be purchased and the hauling contracted for. The 10,000 tons of coal to bo bid on will be on a quality basis, the city to pay for the fue.l on the basis of the heat units as determined by official test in the city laboratories. The coal will be delivered at one of the munici pal docks. City Investigator Humason, who has worked on the fuel proposition for the past three months, believes it will be possible for the city to buy wood al ready cut. in which event the business will be more simple for tho city than if the wood has to be bought in the woods and cut. Mr. Humason says there will be many bidders. His inquiries have brought many propositions which will be placed in the form of bids. The city's purpose in entering the fuel business is to present a fuel fam ine and to prevent dealers from specu lating in fuel prices at the expense of consumers. Appeal Made for Stricken Children.

The appeal is made for a child who is one of a poor and unfortunate fam ily discovered several months ago by Mrs. R. E. Bondurant. a charitable clubwoman and member of the wid ows pension committee. When Mrs. Bondurant made her first plea for the family, the Good Samaritan Hospital agreed to take care of the boy and h Is 13-year-old sister, also a cripple. A kind-hearted specialist gave of his skill and time in correcting the defects of the girl and boy. A business man gave $50, which will pay for the braces for the girl; Mrs. A. IX Leach gave 10 to buy some groceries lor the mother and the .two children at home and Bishop Sumner paid for shoes and crutches. It is to buy fuel for the family and braces so that the boy may walk that the money is needed. The boy and the girl who have been in the hospital never have walked. The girl at home, aged H, has been the housekeeper and nurse, while the mother, who was deserted by her hus band, has done work by the day. Their poverty and misery appealed to Mrs. Bondurant and she won the sympathy and aid of the others. Now a second appeal is made. Who wants to help? Telephone Mrs. Bondurant, Tabor 833.
