Property to Be Deeded. New Hughes Electric Range Proceedings which will be started within a week or two by the city for the replatting of Hundaon' Addition and other Additions on the East Side, wiil be the opening gun in & cam paign by the street extension division of the Municipal Department of Pub lic Works to eliminate jogs in streets in various parts of the city, due to ir regular platting of real estate ad ditions. Involved in the first replat ting proposal is Hudson's Addition, Meadow Park, Fairview Addition and parts of Quinn's Addition and a few other smaller tracts. At present, these additions as laid out form a tangle of streets, some with no outlets, others with abrupt Jogs and offsets and others being irregular in width. As it is, the entire district is in bad shape as far as streets are concerned. Plans Are Prepared. Plans have been prepared by C. F. Fisher, chief of the street extension division, for replatting these additions so that the streets will be uniform and regular, with no Jogs, blind streets or obstructions. This can be done, it is said, without any of the property owners losing in any way. There will be a. sufficient amount of property to give all present property-owners Just &s many square feet as they have now, with a sufficient amount of ground left over - to provide all the money neces sary to do the work. The tracts at present have few houses on them. None of these will be disturbed. Mr. Fisher has pre pared plans and reports showing exact ly what changes will be made and just how the property will be divided up so that every present owner will come out at Je.-.st even. The surplus in ground will be due to the abolition of a. few small streets which at present lead nowhere. Mr. Fisher has prepared maps showing just how the additions will look after the changes are made. Reapportionment Is Proposed. ' The proceedings as arranged call for the deeding by each property-owner of all his property to a trustee, the paying off of all street assessments, the satis fying of all mortgages and the paying up of all taxes. In this way the trus tee will receive a clear title to all the property and can In turn divide the property equitably after the replat proceedings are completed, according to the reapportionment plan that has been prepared. The proceedings will be started under a provision of the city charter which provides as follows: "When the Coun cil shall determine upon the certificate of the City Engineer or otherwise, that the plan of an addition or of anv Dlat or dedication is improper or unsuitable, it may, by resolution, require the filing of a new plat subject to the consider ations hereinbefore set forth, as a con dition to the establishment of any grade, or the improvement of any street in such addition." A meeting of the property-owners In the additions will be called early in July. At this session the plans will be discussed. It is proposed later to start proceedings for other projects of a similar nature in other part of the city. THE DALLES CLUB TO JOIN Oregon Agricultural College Organ ization Picnic Is Today.

The law firm of Benn, Ekwall & Recken now is thoroughly married. Both of the junior members of the firm took wives last week. Thursday Louis A. Recken slipped off to La Grande and married Miss Lu crece Wood at St. Peter's Episcopal Church in that city. On his arrival in Portland with his bride Friday a party of his "friends," led by Martin Tunney, placed him under arrest on a "kid naping" charge. This was a retributive measure for Mr. Recken's action in getting married without giving them notice. Yesterday Wiliam A. Ekwall secured a license to marry Miss Lina Moser, of 1536 East Ninth street. Frank S. Senn, senior partner, has been married for several years. ROAD SOON TO BE OPEN Mr. Yeon Says Autos Can Go to The Dalles After July 10. The Columbia Highway will be open for travel to The Dalles on or after July 10, according to Roadmaster John Yeon. Until that time it will be nec essary to ship automobiles to The Dalles as heretofore. An erroneous statement has been circulated to the effect that automo biles can now make the trip through from Portland to The Dalles and that it is no longer necessary to ship them by boat. In dry weather the Columbia High way is open for automobiles and other vehicles as far as Warrendale. From Warrendale to Hood River is a section of the highway not yet completed and over which it is impossible for auto mobiles to pass. OFFICERS OF GRADUATING CLASS OF ST. MARY'S ACADEMY.
