JITNEY FEVER CURED Hurricane Deck of Express Wagon Haven of Safety. HORSE EARNS MEAL TICKET Isaac Davis Tells of "Flyer" in Rapid Transportation Business, Emerging With More Experi ence and Dess Money. From the hurricane deck .of a one-horse-power express wagon to the bridge of a 32-passenger jitney 'bus and back again is the terse story of the attempt of Isaac Davis to grasp a fortune in the latest development of urban transportation. Mr. Davis says his hope to become a traction magnate was a vain one, and he is again slap ping the lines on the back of his faith ful steed and clucking to mm as or oia. The stand of Expressman Davis, sometime jitney owner, is at Fourth and Stark streets. Like many others, he said he saw golden visions in the a-asoline transportation business, and deserted his one-horsepower vehicle for one 30 times as great on February 1. On April 1 he resumed his express wagon, having gained valuable experi ence in the interim, but he estimates he dropped $500 in the experiment, be sides losing wages, for two months. He has been in the express business for five years, and says, as a meal ticket, the exnress wagon has the jitney 'bus beaten seven ways. Figures Prove Alluring. He figured, along with other en thusiasts who evinced a desire to sell him a bus and start him on the road to fortune, that a 32-passenger bus couia take in $30 a day. Of this amount, $20 could be figured for overhead expenses and depreciation of equipment. Still, $10 a day velvet wouia lie quite satis factory and he launched his venture with rosy prospects of success. The first day, however, aasnea ma hopes. Gross receipts were i6.au on the North Portland run, where he started business. He naa-iraiiic ar rjnmmrnu with the company, from which ho bought his car for $960. and that concern suggested he take another route. This proved easier to suggest than to adjust satisfactorily and his routing was not entirely satisfactory as a nickel-getting venture. Ultimate ly he tried many routes, mciuamg oeu wood. Alberta. Portsmouth, Lent. Broadway and oth ;rs, but in all there was disappointment in store for him. Insurance Is Abandoned. The first month he had repair bills amounting to $!. he said. He iook out a liability policy to safeguard him against accidents, but he gave that up as an expensive luxury at the end of the first month, wnen ne iouna m other Jitney owners did not provide themselves with like protection. After vovaeing more mties over t-ori- land's pavements in the two months he operated the Jitney man ne naa pre viously in a year as pilot ot his ex press wagon, Mr. Davis concluded the jitney business was a "flivver, and was glad to return his bus to those who sold it to him for 50 cents on every dollar of the purchase price. "It can't be done," said Mr.' Davis yesterday. "I know, because I tried it. The express wagon is better than a jitney any day. CAPTAIN KELLOGG NOT WED Man Named In Suit as One Husband of Woman Is Xot He. Captain E. E. Kellogg, whose head quarters are at the foot of Salmon street, said yesterday that he had been receiving numerous congratulations as the result of a news item appearing in The Oregonian, in which W. H. Brown, in a suit for divorce, was reported to have alleged that the woman whom he married had been previously married to a number of men, including E. E. Kellogg. The Captain denied that he was the Kellogg referred to. "I like to receive congratulations when I have earned them," eaid Cap tain Kellogg, "but in this instance it is some other man who should be the recipient." Modern Church Nearlnc Completion.

Council I-lkely to Take Steps to Pre Teat Holding Off of Vote on Or dinance Until June, 1917. Circulation of petitions to invoke the referendum on the jitney regula tion ordinance passed by the Council April 2 is to be started by the jitney drivers tomorrow. City Attorney LaRoche yesterday approved the form of petition put out by the jitney in terests and those backing the move ment ordered copies printed. These will be ready for distribution to the drivers today. It is the Intention of the Auto Transit "Welfare Society, which is the prime mover in the referendum plan, to get the required 7608 names on the petitions as quickly as possible. The petitions then will be filed. This will mean the reference of the measure to a vote of the people at the city elec tion to be held in June, 1917. In case the referendum is ffled, it is likely the City Council will take im mediate steps to head off the plan to hold off a vote on the measure until June, 1917. The only way this can be done is for the Council to repeal the ordinance as passed and to prepare and pass another measure. At the same time the Council could adopt a resolution to submit the measure to a vote of the people at the June election this year, under the initiative. The referendum petition as put out bears the customary warning- that only legal voters may sign. The petition contains a copy of the jitney ordinance. John C. Lane, president of the Auto Transit Welfare Society, is listed as the person behind the referendum movement. PERSONALMENTION. James Bandridge, or Eugene, is at the Seward. J. R.
