Chamness, Miss Morrow and Mrs. Klatt, fainted in rapid succession after the police arrived and had to be carried out and revived. Mrs. Chamness said, that after she was married her husband refused to work, and lived over his father's grocery store at Third and Jefferson streets, helping ,in the store occa sionally but idling away most of his time. He never came home before 2 o'clock in the morning and when she coaxed him to brace up he would abuse her, beat her and taunt her with jibes about the girl he left in Liverpool, she said. After she left him, she said he had finally found a job with the Eastern- STATE ROAD BOARD SETS TRUCK HUG etter Drug Stores? Evidence Wanted at Session of May 10.

Definite Policy Regarding Use of Highways. Hans Larson, alias H. Price, alias C. Olson, and a woman known at dif ferent times as Mrs. Hans Larson, 31 ay Gibson, Ethel Price or Evelyn Olson, were bound over to the federa erand Jury yesterday afternoon for violation of the Harrison act, follow Ins a preliminary hearing before riS' triot Judge Martin Hawkins, acting United States commissioner. Expressing himself as astounded at the activities of the pair, as outlined In testimony produced by Austin i'legel. deputy United States attor ney. Judge Hawkins refused a re ouest to reduce the ball, wmcn re xnalned at J 5 000 for Larson and $1000 for the woman. In a safe deposit box in the vaults of the Union Safe Deposit & Trust company Larson had narcotics having a retail value of I2,000, when arrest ed March 29 by Patrolmen Burdick and Shafer and federal operatives. The woman attempted to destroy some drugs In her possession by throwing them Into a sink and turning on the water after she was arrested, but some of the narcotics were rescued. According to the officers. Drngi Found In Vault. The pair have been operating the Madison rooming house, uroni ana Madison streets, for the past year and a half, and were suspected of having carried on one of the largest and most profitable businesses in Illicit drugs in the city. Records of visits show that Larson went to his Bafe deposit box almost every day, and when it was opened It was crammed full of drugs heroin, co caine and morphine. Both declared that they did not use the "dope" themselves. Such a tremendous business ap parently was operated by them that Investigators found that instead of makeshift "bindles," or colored wrappers, cut out of scrap paper, special paper had been ordered and machine cut for the purpose, the colors differentiating the kinds of drugs sold, according to testimony produced. Woman Takes Stand. Though the woman took the stand to deny that she had any part in drug peddling or that she had at tempted to destro any drugs on being taken into custody, Larson did not testify, in his own-defense. With the arresj of the couple, the first seizure of heroin in the city of Portland in more than two 'years was made, said Deputy United States At torney Flegel. "We have been fortunate in having but few heroin addicts in this city," he said, "for the drug is more deadly and body-wrecking in its effects than either cocaine or morphine, and pos sibly the two combined. There has not bcen inuch market for it and we had made no seizure in a long while." There were 500 tablets of heroin confiscated, each of which sold for $1. The morphine and cocaine were in original packages and were imported to this country from Holland and Bel gium. There was no indication as to the place of manufacture of the heroin, but operatives believed that It was compounded in America.

BOTH STORES: 40-46 Xorth Broadway 613-617 Washington St. Heilig. BY LEONE CASS BAER.. A. SUPERIOR musical production is "Irene," and on this, its sec ond visit to us, it brings a cast whose personnel is even more distinguished than its initial presentation out here. Possibly it is the music that and Patti Harrold that is "Irene's" chief charm. The ingeniousness of orches tration, the wealth of melody and the lilting charm of the music in this production ha3 not been surpassed in any similar piece of recent years. Tierney displays a variety of mood, humorous understanding of tonal effects, and gaiety, color and imagi nation commingle in his melodies. There are occasional sentimental duets and there are deep choruses of swinging joyful refrains, there is syncopation a plenty and one or two pretentious themes. Out of them all lingers "Irene, You Are a Little Bunch of Sweetness" and "My Alice Blue Gown" for -sheer lovely melodies and their haunting quality. To hear these alone and to see the gay little dances that illustrate them is worth a trip to the Heilig. Henry Coote received an ovation upon his entrance and was in splendid voice. He has two duets with Irene and a solo which he did so effectively that he was recalled. Teddy McNamara, remembered from the Pollard Liliputian Opera com pany, brings a wealth of comedy to the role of "Madame Lucy," the man modiste. Not even.-O. Henry, that master of situation, could have planned a moment so complete and satisfying as that moment when Madame Lucy" surveys one of his most exquisite creations stretched to its bursting seams over the ample figure of Irene's mother, the last woman in the world who should have attempted to struggle into it. Mc Namara s pantomime is amusing and his dance steps, particularly bits of travesty on esthetic dancing, bring hrieks of delight. Lou Ripley as the mother of Irene contributes, with McNamara, what- ver comedy there is in the piece. that Is, apart from Irene's delightful comedy when she is a shop girl. Miss Ripley s brogue, and her char acterization of the old Irish woman who waited for Irene at night, and ropped in at the ball to take her daughter home, was one of the great moments in the evening. A delightful singing staff has been assembled in this company, and it is costumed and staged up to every mark of splendor. The orchestra, too. stringed one minus a pianist, is a evelation and a constant joy. The cast: Donald Marshall Howard Freeman Robert Harrison Booth Howard J. P.

Lucy Teddy McNamara Everyone interested in the oper ation of trucks and other heavy ve hides on the highways is Invited to attend a hearing to be held by the state highway commission May 10 at 2 P. M. There are so many angles to be considered before the commission adopts a policy on this subject that Commissioners Booth, Yeon and Bar ratt want the views of all concerned. Whether permits should be issued forv hauling logs on paved highways in any circumstance is one of the knotty questions. In most places rail roads are adjacent to the highways, but there are short sections where the highway would afford an outlet for logs. On general principles, mem bers of the commission are opposed to permitting logs to be hauled on paved roads, but the commission real izes that there may be extenuating circumstances. The one thing that the commission is desirous of doing is to save the pavements from ex cessive loads. Macadam Different Problem. On macadam roads, which can be maintained easily, some arrangement may be made by which logs can be hauled, for instance the white cedar logs of Curry county, which must move to Port Orford or Bandon ovet the coast highway, the only road which serves that section. A bond may be required of loggers requiring them to pay for damage above the normal cost of maintenance. As the commission is running against a snag in the matter of grade separations at Salem, Albany-and Eu gene, the highway body yesterday held a conference with representa tives of railroads to see what can be done about a danger signal system where there are no overhead or underground crossings. This matter of warning signals consumed the major part of the session yesterday afternoon. Wallowa Request Tip. The request of Wallowa county for improvement of the highway between Lostine and Enterprise; the request of Deschutes county for surfacing the grade between Cline Falls and Red mond, and the request of Jefferson county for further construction of The Dalles-California highway in that county, have been postponed until after contract awards have been made at the May meeting. When the awards are made the commission .will know how the financial balance is and their altitude toward these requests will be governed accordingly. Boundaries of the Lebanon-Cascadia road district were approved by the commission, as provided by law, and this proposed highway improvement district will next be submitted to the voters of the district. The plan, if the electors favor the project, will provide funds ror co-operation in constructing the highway from Albany through to Cas-eadia, with the ultimate intention to crossing the mountains to eastern Oregon.

Drain Routing Final. No change in location of the Pacific highway will be made through the town of Drain, it was decided yester day. The location is along B street to Cedar, which runs toward the hill' to the south on a tangent. A new bridge will be constructed on Cedar street. There was some talk of 'making a lo cation cutting across from, the head of B street through the only camp grounds that Drain has, and bridging Elk creek. The tentative location, on close study, was discarded. Immediately after the May meeting the commission will begin work on the map which the government wants of all federal, state and county roads CREDIT MEN ELECT BOARD Directors Are Chosen at Annual Dinner of Association.
