NEED GRAVEL PITS.
County Commlswlonern Mor Buy Sev
ernl for Eastern Multnomah.
The County Commissioners contemplate
purchasing a few gravel pits between
Sandy and the eastern boundary of Mult
nomah, for the purpose of graveling the
county roads in that vicinity. Very little
substantial improvement has yet been
made on the roads out there, but the
growing traffic begins to demand a roorp
durable pavement than can be construct
ed of plank or common earth. Gravel
pits, to be handy, should not be more
than three miles distant frbm the points
to be Improved, according to a County
Commissioner, who was speaking on the
subject yesterday. The eight-acre gravel
pit on Powell's road, some eight miles
from the city, has proved very useful in
furnishing gravel for several highways
out there. The tract cost $400, or $50 an
acre, some time ago. but the seller did
not know he was dealing with Multnomah
County until after he Had been paid $100
on the purchase price. Then he thought
he should have been paid at least double
as "Multnomah County is rich, and the
public always have to pay more for
things than individuals do."
Gravel pits can be bought now much
cheaper than a few years hence, the Com
missioner thought, but the authorities will
always have to guard against the sellei
who thinks the county should pay double
what a thing Is worth.
The macadam roads of the county are.
standing the wet weather much better
than those thoroughfares where only
gravel has been used, as the macadam
packs more solidly, and thus resists the
action of heavily laden teams. Macadam,
however. Is simply gravel that has been
broken, and the county is better ablo
to crush its own rock each succeeding
year.

C. A. Whale's musicale, which took
place in his spacious piano parlors. Sixth,

great success. Mme. Lucille D'Albertl
sang with rare skill and taste for which
she Is famous. A prominent feature was
the grand overture for two grand pianos
with the wonderful electric piano, the
grand piano selections being played by
Miss E. Hoven and Gilbert Bletor. These
charming muslcales are becoming very
popular, and is only another evidence of
Mr. Whale's well-known liberal policy.

The musical and literary entertainment
given at the Sunnyside Methodist Church
last evening was a pleasing success. A
largo crowd filled the auditorium, and
many were turned away. It was under
charge of the music committee, W. R,
Insjey? Mrs. Mabel Datson and Mrs. W.
R. Insley. The music was high-class all
the way through. Bishop Earl Cranston
was present and made a short talk on
"The Prosperity of the Church." The
Veteran Male Quartet, with Judge Bul
