Kisses and hugs smothered the sugar
market today; rennene indulging in
this pastime to their hearts content
The war Is over and sugar Is SOo per
hundred pounds higher. Makers today
pooled their Issues and have decided as
a unit to matce me consumers pay ior
a little of the fun they have been
I JSfttchlng. Tha advance today confirms
-The predlotl6ns mad by this Piper last
week and was due to a great' extent to
the sharp rises of lata In New Tork.

advance means that much additional
profit to these underpaid handlers. .The
reason for the sdvences lit the east Is
said to he the shortage In Cuban Bun

'How to Secure an Adequately
Equipped Ministry for the Work of the
400,000 Kingdom" waa the subject of th paper
read by Rev. Arthur B. Walts this
morning at the Baptist ministers' meet
Ing. He emphasized the necessity of
training boys rrom childhood to look
forward to the ministry as a calling of
which to De proud. He saia Boys snouid
be taught by reading and should be
talked to till they understand the Im
Dortance of the work. This, he thought
would largely solve the problem of "dead
heads" in the ministry.
The door to the ministry should be
kept carefully guarded and closed most
or tne time," ne saia. "ana tne exit
should be just as carefully kept wide
open that inefficient men may be In
duced to leave the work for which they
are not fitted. Then young people who
are just entering on tne work win reel
that they have companions in the work
or whom uiey may do proud and with
whom they may work hand in hand for
advancement."
Discussion followed the paper and all

Havlnr iecured th right to th
Klaw ft Er longer bookings for Portland
for th ' next f IV years Qeorg Baker
of th Baker and Empire theatres , will
commence th -construction's! an early
date, of a new 1100,000 theatr. It la
to be In the down tows district and
options hava been secured on most of
th property required for th building.
The new theatre Is to be a replica of
the Moor theatre In Seattle, although
It will not be finished on so elaborat
a seals. The architect of th Moor
theatre are Dranarlna nlana for , th
Portland house and will embody all th
essential features of the new Moor la
the smaller bouse In this city. There
will be no pillars in th house snd
the approaches and Aisles will b With
out steps so as to avoid danger in aa
of parJes. ,
This theatre is mad poselbl by th
change In the theatrical arrangement
for Portland. Under th present ar
rangement many second class Klaw ft
Erlanger shows plsy at th Heitlg and .
charge Heilig prices, although in other
cities they only charge popular prloes.
Th Marquam Orand seeurd th con
tract for th Klaw ft Erlanger popular .
priced productions last fall but not In
time to arrange the bookings suitably.
This has resulted In that theatre's bolng
either closed muoh of the Urn or de
voted to moving picture shows, while
th productions which should bsv
rilayed the Marquam have ben. show
nr at the Helllg.
The new theatre will play thes
shows for the next five years it least.
The Helllr will keen all the more ex-
penslv class of attractions, and th
Baker Stock company will play la th
little Empire theatre at Twelfth and.
Morrison streets The Stair ft Havlland
melodramas, which have been playing
the Empire, will have to seek a hom .
elsewhere.
These changes will all go Into affect
the first of September next, John Oort
and Calvin Helllg having left for th :
east last night to arrange the bookings.
The Klaw ft Erlanger popular priced
shows will be given In th present
Baker house until the completion of
the new theatre.
The securing- of the Klaw ft Erlanger
contract by Mr. Baker Is not only an
Important step for htm. Insuring Mm
what will undoubtedly be tha most
Firofltabls class of theatrical attraction
n the city, but will also clear th
theatrical atmosphere here excepting for
the Marauam Grand, which la till an
unknown quantity.
The Marquam Grand is owned By in
Imperial Amusement company, a num
ber of Portland men represented by ,
Bernstein ft Conn. Although th finest
theatre In the city It has been shuttled
from Dillar to Dost for some rear.
Owing to the lateness In making book
ings tne present season nas Dean oaaiy
broken up. Tne closing or in kjw
ft Erlanger contracts by Baker leave
It out In the cold entirely. Th most -logical
future for It Is that th Orphewm
vaudeville circuit will aoqulre ft and
play Orpheum ahows In Portland.
The hitch In this proceeding would
be that Sullivan ft Conaldine, who con
trol the Grand, have a thre year agree-,
ment with the Orpheum circuit that If
any Orpheum acts sre produced her ,
they shall be given by Sullivan A Con
sldlne. If Sullivan A Consldlne can se
cure the Marquam they Will probably
do so and give Portland a first Class '
vaudeville house. .

A Judicial Elevator Test.
From the Washington Herald.
Several years ago, when the elevator
was first put In the capltol at Rich
mond, an Incident occurred showing the
sense of humor of the then Governor
Mts Lee. Tbe general was of stout
build, and he wanted to see how the
machine would work. He was a close
friend of Judge Samuel B. Witt of the
Hustings court.
Judge Witt waa noiamg court tne
I day the elevator was completed, and ha
ti called to th telephone by Governor
Lee.
"Sam," said tha governor, "I want to
see you for a moment, and want you to
come to the ofltio at once," .. . .
"Certainly, governor, said th judge,
always one of the most accommodating
and obliging of public men.
"By the way, Sam, the elevator la
finished and you can com up to my of
fice without having to walk up - th
steps." .
Judge Witt got back on th bench and
ordered a short recess of the court.
Then he hurried over to se th gov
ernor. Ho made known his presence,
and h waa ushsred Into to governor
offlc.
"Hello. 6am." said th governor.
"Glad to see you. Cora up on th la
