Portland will have a definite plan for overcoming the effects of blis ' sards snow storms, and similar dis turbances in the future if the plans of City Comruissioner Bigelow. in , charge of the street-cleaning bureau, ;are worked out. Yesterday Coramis- sioner Bigelow sent questionnaires to the principal eastern cities seeking J information on the methods in vogue for the fighting of snow storms and '. blizzards. The city council yesterday agreed to an additional appropriation of 110,000 for the clearance of streets, ' the original appropriation of $15,000, 'made last Wednesday, having been exhausted. The appropriation can--not be made until Wednesday, but ; the council instructed Commissioner Bigelow to . continue his work with the same force now operating and promised that the money would be forthcoming. In the disbursement of the original appropriation, $12,310.91 was spent on clearing the downtown streets of snow and the remainder of the $15,000 was spent on clearing main arteries on the east side leading to the business district. Sunday the street-cleaning bureau, according to Superintendent Alex Donaldson, :cleared 22 blocks at an approxi mate cost of $100 per block. When the city forces first began ;work on Wednesday, the total cost of clearing a block of snow was $200, but through a general system devised by Superintendent Donaldson and .other bureau chiefs co-operating with him, this cost has been cut in twain. . - The work will be continued with :out abatement, with the best provi--gions possible made for the handling '.of of the water resulting from a sud den thaw. In this connection. Super- intendent Donaldson urged all prop . erty owners in both the business and residential sections of the city to keep .' the gutters clear so that the water may have free passage to the sewers. ' Unless this is done, the water is likely ! to back into basements, flood streets - and make a general disagreeable as ! well as dangerous situation, should a sudden thaw develop. v POPE CONFERS RED HATS .SEVEN HIGH CHURCHMEN BE COME CARDINALS. : No Americans Among Those Hon ored by His Holiness Other Appointments Announced.

ALASKANS WILL BANQUET Annual Event Scheduled for Satur day, January 24. I'lans for an annual banquet and lor other gatherings' were perfected UNUSUAL. In Its wholesome -fun and vigor of plot and situations is "Jinx," the' newest and big gest Mabel Normand picture which Is showing this week at the Strand the ater. v "Jinx" is a circus story but it Is vastly different from any circus story ever before shown on the screen. In the first place It is a comedy from start to finish. It deals with the members of a bankrupt circus comedy and while the hard ness of the life of the circus folk is shown it is overshadowed by the merry heart of the "Jinx." The Jinx, played by Miss Normand, is a well meaning, neglected child who in some way or other is apparently the cause of all hard luck which came to those she would befriend. After a terrible calamity In which she ruined all prospects, of a recoup for her man ager and chances of back salary for her friend, she runs away into more trouble. Silvery haired, dainty and kindly is the matron of a small county orphan asylum to which the Jinx goes in her efforts to escape the circud life. The little orphans are seen in the prover bial checked ginghams but they are happy, contented and well cared for. To the neglected "Jinx" who had known only the sordid life back of the circus curtains, the orphan home was heaven. To its kiddies the "Jinx" was heaven also for she showed them how to play circus. Properties for presenting this cir cus were most unusual. Bossy's hay furnished the costume for a wee Hula-Hula dancer. A pair of "Teddy Bear" pajamas and a cast off corset decorated with freshly gathered wild flowers were converted into a das".. !ng attire for a tight rope walker. And there was a wild man, too. Spon taneous fun representing a score of such situations make the picture un usually worth while. Screen Gossip. . , .

NEW BILLS AT THE THEATERS Alcazar. BY LEONE CASS BAER. IN the performance of "A Stubborn Cinderella" Mabel Wilber returned to the Alcazar musical stock last night and sang her numbers, and par ticularly one big solo with intricate runs and climacteric top notes, quite as if she hadn't been fighting an at tack of laryngitis all last week. Miss Wilber is in excellent voice and makes a gay and charming Cinderella. The plot in "A Stubborn Cinderella" takes care of itself and shuffles off into nothingness quite early, as all musical comedy plots are supposed to do, but the Alcazar management allows the plot to take care of itself by . introducing pleasing interpola tions. As an Instance, Henry Coote, in the role of a college rah-rah boy, sings "Dear Old Pal of Mine" in a voice and spirit fresher than has marked some of his earlier work this season. . He was recalled three times to sing the chorus. In this play the prince Is a college boy who poses as a sculptor so that he may sculp the princess. Lee Daly plays this role and gives a fine ac counting of its many clever lines. It Is the most likable and biggest role Mr. Daly has had since the season opened and he sings it, dances It and plays it neatly and with the charm of naturalness. Miss Wilber is the Scotch lady of nobility and her sprightly graces and admirable freshness of voice were ap preciatively remarked upon. One of the bis hits in tne produc tion is the "harmonizing" specialty put on by Messrs. Coote, Daly, Sedan, Katanson and Poppen. They sing Roll Dent Bones," "Rosie O'Grady" and other melodies calculated to show the blending of male voices. The harmony, unaccompanied by the orchestra, is truly delightful and the singers were encored over and over. Katanson is the sad, pessimistic en gineer, Poppen is the Quaker Oatish uncle and Edward Sedan dances and sings his way Into much popularity as a college rounder. None Was more happily contribu tory to the success of the production than brlpht-eyed, happyi-voiced Eva CONSTIPATION MAKES YOU EASY VICTIM OF FLU, COLDS AND GRIP Old Fashioned Herb Tea Often Relieves Chronic Cases You oan't afford to be constipated.

All the good old luscious flavor. All the rare fragrance. Vinted and fermented just as always. Nothing missing but the alcohol and you won't miss that.

Aa a study in self-assurance the aspirants were delightful and their concious ways, awkward movements and sublime faith in their artistry coupled with a calm . disregard of directions shouted by the director turned the affair Into a bedlam of amusement.
