The storm which swept Portland
yesterday caused the change in plans.
The tent was blown down and as the
weather bureau did not promise relief

hotel quarters than to repair the tent.
The sale of the lots will be con
ducted by the firm of Barry & Austin

pany, owner of the property. -
It has been announced' that the
sale will be conducted until every one

The Laurelhurst companly has an
nounced that t guarantees the sale
to be unreserved, and that every lot

Xew Bill to Open at Heilig Has
Three Big-Type Features, All
of Which Are Pleasing.
"It's one of the kind of Orpheuro
shows that everybody enjoys except
ing the chronic grouch, and even he
smiles in spite of himself."
These words of praise were written
by a Seattle newspaper reviewer about
the Orpheum show which will open
at the Heilig tomorrow afternoon. The
new show will be on the boards for'
three nights and four matinees, clos
ing with the performance next
Wednesday afternoon.
The bill is another comedy assem
blage and it is staged throughout in
high-class fashion. The three big
type features are Florenz Ames and
Adelaide Winthrop, in a new act
called "Alice in Blunderland"; Edith
Clasper and her boys, in an artistic
dancing act, and Herbert Clifton, cele
brated entertainer, in his travesties of
the weaker sex. .
Ames and Winthrop are great fav
orites and are remembered here es
pecially for their comedy act, "Caught
in a Jamb." Their new act is said to
be Just as funny and it is one of the
big comedy novelties of the season.
Edith Clasper, Ivho shares headline
place with Ames and Winthrop, is a
dainty dancer. She is assisted by
r-eison snow ana Charles Columbus in
"Love Steps," an offering with special
music written by Paul Lennin and
Mall Franklin and lyrics by I. Caesar.
Critics in several cities have extolled
this act as "one of the artistic gems
or rne urpneum year."
Herbert Clifton, the third feature
is renowned not only, for his extra
ordinary singing voice, but' for his
artistry in portraying feminine types.

Than 9.5 Mills.
Forty-four mills Instead of the 36.8
levied against the -taxpayers of the
city of Portland test year probably
will be the amount that every prop
erty owner here must contribute to
the support of city, state and county
governments in 1921, according to es
timates of CountyAssessor Reed.
All of the budget figures are not
yet in, particularly in the cs.se of the
state, and Mr. Reed has assumed! that
96 mills will be required to cover
that item. The assessed valuation
for state purposes is J338, 190, 784.62,
and for the county J507.950 less that
amount.
Estimates now, in cover all but the
state and are as follows: County,
Jl, 853. 129.88; county school fund,
$634,100; county library, '$262,888.13;
Port of Portland. $444,000; city of
Portland, $4,126,060; dock commission,
$634,020.37; school district No. 1,
$3,099,400. In addition the county
commissioners plan to levy about .3

bring in about $100,000.
