M X ' Nat? . - V V A' i fc"S - . ' si - - . . v -' SOJIK day, maybe, Miss Billic Burke's name may be found in the dic tionary of tho Kngiish language. It really ought to be there now, for Miss Burke has added three words a noun, a verb and an adjective to the vocabulary of people who write about the theater. They are expressive words, too. There is the noun. A "blllieburke" is a girl, on tho stage or off, who has reddish hair and gets herself up to look as much like the actress as na ture will let her. Then the verb. To "blllieburke" is to display the cute little mannerisms and the kittenish ways that the actress has made familiar to theater-goers. A great many other actresses try to "bll lieburke" and a few of them succeed fairly well. Then the adjective. A "billieburkish" part is one that the average theater goer will recognize at once as being exactly suited to Miss Burke one that she would "simply eat tip," as the slang user would put it. They say that "Jerry," the role in which Miss Burke appears in the play of that same name in. which, she will be seen at the Heilig Theater, June 3, 4 and 5, is a "billie burkish'" part in the superlative. SCENERY IS SHOWN Railroads Generous in Public ity Given Northwest. MANY BOOKLETS IN PRINT Points of Interest Throughout Ore gon Attractively Pictured to En courage Tourists to Visit Xorth. Pacific Country. Railroads radiating out of Portland are displaying more than their usual amount of enterprise this year in pre paring folders, booklets and other ad vertising matter descriptive of Port land and its environs, and offering in ducements to travelers to visit this lo cality. On account Of the expositions in Cali fornia it is expected that more than the usual number of travelers will come to the Coast this year. The Southern Pacific Company has been particularly active in this direc tion. It has issued several booklets already, and has others in course of preparation. One of the Southern Pa cific publications is devoted to Oregon exclusively. It consists of 48 pages of illustrated reading matter and is de scriptive of the scenic charm and the industrial advantages of tLe western part of the state. The covers are printed on a deep blue background. On one side an alert fisnerman is just about to land an extra-size trout in his net and on the other, side a typical Summer girl is ready to take a plunge into the surf. Shasta Route Pictured. " High Points on the Four Great Highways to California" is tho title of another booklet being circulated by the Southern Pacific. These four "high ways" are the four routes by which the Southern Pacific enters California. One Is tho Shasta route and, in re ferring to it, the booklet describes the scenery of Western Oregon, and photo graphs of Portland. Crater hake and other Oregon attractions are shown. Another Southern Pacific publication designed to attract tourists to Oregon is entitled "Wayside Notes on the Shasta Route." It Is descriptive of a typical journey from Portland to San Krancisco over the Shasta road, and contains miniature pictures of scenery along the way. Every city through which the Southern Pacific passes is given attention. Two of Oregon's popular beach re sorts Tillamook and Newport are described in folders descriptive of each of those places. In addition to these more pretentious publications, the Southern Pacific has issued a little handbook on "Side Trips From Portland," in which all the re sorts and cities reached by that road are described and information is given on how to Ee"t there.

Crisis It seems a shame to cut down a business at this time to the extent that is necessary, but I have left nothing undone and cannot help myself. The owners of the preferred stocK of my company want their money. 1 have been trying to place it elsewhere, but no one seems willing' to maKe an investment nowadays. I cannot borrow the money now, so I must taKe it out of my business. By selling out a large portion of my stocK on hand and doing it cuicHly I Know I can maKe it. I Know that a big sacrifice is necessary to induce quicK and extensive piano buying' now, but 1 am willing' to maKe that sacrifice. I'll maKe extraordinary concessions for cash less than cost and for anyone nuying on time will charge only a very little extra. I have better pianos, grade for grade, than any house in the city because I personally select my stocK. Let no one say that such and such an instrument is better or more valuable than anything In my house. It is not true. I have Sohmers and Behning- grands and uprights and player pianos. No concern in America maKes anything finer. I will taKe $143 for some of my nicest brand new pianos. This is $10 less than the cash cost at the factory. . For $155 I will sell them on time, say $15 cash and $7 a month. I will sell very fine brand new player pianos for $230; this is $20 less than they cost at the factory; and for $255 I will sell on payments of $35 down and $11 a month; twenty months to pay for a piano or a player piano. This is a bona fide help-me-quicK offer.- I have some used pianos, too, and good ones. Will taKe $65 for a Steinway piano, $55 for a Fischer, $70 for a good old W. W. Kimball, and a $500 genuine ChicKering is$180. Everything else, including baby grands, at same rate of reduction. My offer is genuine; no one can say these figures are high. There are plenty of families who need pianos; there are plenty of people with money who can pay me the cash; but all can buy now became I'll sell on easiest payments. " If I don't act quicKly I can't continue business. Come at once, or telephone or let me send you cat alogues. I haven't any agents or traveling men. You are dealing' with the head of the Hoiisp. th. who has built this business up to its present success and wants to remain identified with Portland and Oregon and the music trade for all time to come. My guarantee is as good as anybody's. It is issuorf by the factories and countersigned by me. We have hundreds upon hundreds of satisfied customers and, even though we don't maKe a dollar of profit in this emergency, we are going to taKe just as good care of the interests of buyers now as we have in the past.

Yet another pamphlet in -which all the side trips around Portland will be pointed out also will be issued in time to catch most of the Summer tourist travel. The Great Northern Pacific Steam ship Companyhas issued a handsome booklet pointing out to travelers the advantages of traveling on the big liners Oreat Northern and Northern Pacific between San Francisco and Portland. The desirability of travel ing through the Northwest, either in going to or returning from, the exposi tions, is impressed upon the readers. The O.-W. R. & N. Company has dis played its accustomed activity in the same direction. It has issued a richly colored folder called "Along the Co lumbia liiver," which it is circulating throughout the Kast. "Famous Columbia River Scenes" is another effort on the part of the O.-W. R. & N. Company to attract tourists. Un,lon Pacific Has Literature, The Union Pacific system, of which the O.-W. R. & N. Company is a unit, also is making liberal appropriations for advertising tho Northwest. The most elaborate folder issued by the Union Pacific Is entitled "The Scenic Columbia River Route to the Great Pa cific Northwest." "America and How to See It" is another Union Pacific pub lication in which the Northwest gets full attention. Dorsey B. Smith, of the Travel Bu reau, is issuing a series of folders in which all the scenic attractions in and around Portland that are calculated to provide the visitor with diversion are explained and described.

LARGH WORK TO BEGIN BI FOKCK OF ME.V STARTS L A VINCI OtT TRAIL TOMORROW. CONCRETE SAID TO FAIL HOOD RIVER AXD CLATSOP MEN FAVOR OTHER PAVING. Horaea Injured, Surface Slippery and Reflects Heat and Great Noise Are Alleced Letters. In response to inquiries regarding the relative merits of different pave ments laid in Oregon, Amos Benson received letters yesterday from eight men of Hood River County; protest ing against use of concrete pavement on the Columbia River Highway, and a copy of a letter written by John Frye, County Commissioner of Clatsop County, to a Spokane man, citing his county's experience with concrete. "We have had some experience with concrete pavements of . tho hassam type," say the Hood River men, three of whom are farmers, and three in the livery and drayage business. "How ever, we do not favor it for use on the Columbia River Highway for the following reasons: First, it Is very In jurious to hors.es' feet; second, it is very noisy and slippery when dry, and even when wet it is very poor footing for a horse: third, in hot weather the reflection of heat is intense; fourth, the road will be blocked to travel the entire Summer." The letter is signed by C. A. Class. James itranahan. P. S. Davidson, J. W. McDonald, Hans Lage. W. B. Sterns, J. W. Armstrong and L. W. Piegge. Commissioner Frye says. In part: "The state built about four miles of concrete road in this county last year and it has proved a failure; also we built a concrete .street on one side of county property in Astoria, and that is a failure. We built two miles of warrenito road last year, and we con sider it a fine road and a perfect suc cess, so you can see from our experi ence that we are strong on warrenito. I consider warrenito the best pavement you can get for county roads." Final Surveys Completed, for Route That Will Accommodate Only Foot Travelers for Time. Work on the Larch Mountain trail will begin tomorrow, with a large force of men under the immediate direction of R. S. Shelley, of the United States Forestry Bureau. Final surveys have been completed in accordance with the original plans suggested by Samuel C. Lancaster, ex engineer of tho Multnomah County highway department. Tho whole course has been laid out through the forests from the Columbia River Highway , to the mountain summit. It will bo ap proximately six and a half miles in length and will have a maximum grade of 15 per cent. Temporarily it will be wide enough to accommodate foot trav elers comfortably, but it is intended eventually to mako it six feet wide so that burros, ponies and such pack ani mals may bo taken over the trail. Tho Government has appropriated $1000 to prosecute the work and 300 for the erection of an observation tower and shelter station at the sum mit. The rest of the money needed for the enterprise is being procured through the efforts of the Progressive Business Men's Club, which originated the plan or ouilding the trail, after Mr. Lancas ter had suggested tho idea. A commit tee of the club composed of T. H. Sher rard. Supervisor of the Oregon Na tional Forest; Henry Hayek, chairman; J. P. Jaeger, G. F. Peek and Jacob Kanzler baa had charge of the finan cial details. Tho recent benefit per formance netted approximately $000 for the fund.
