Mr. Livingstons may not be able to aerva and anocner member will be appointed in his place If ha de clines. The members were notified by mall late yesterday afternoon of their appointment and an early meeting will be held. Taror Sea Moines Plan Alt hough the members were appointed to revise and amend the present city charter they may draft en entirely new cnarter ana suDmit it 10 me peopie. There Is growing sentiment favoring the adoption of a charter similar to the Des Moines plan and It Is expected that such a scheme will be discussed by the members. Five of the members were recom mended by the various push clubs, while two were recommended by the council, leaving eight members whom the ap pointing committee selected at will. When the committee meets Mayor Lane will call the members to order and explain the work that lies before them. - An organization will then be perfected and uie work will be started aa earlycas possible. Inasmuch as there remains but two months in which to aaaomplish the task that has been cut oul for the revision committee tne mem bers will be required to hold several meetings a week. " With City Attorney Kavanaugh and Deputy City Auditor urutze on the com mittee much of the work will be facili tated because of the special knowledge f the workings or in- resent charter. Grutze not only knows Six Miles Out So Badly Worn by Bubbles Is Now Impassable. Numerous complatnta Lava been re ceived recently by tha county commis sioners regarding tha condition of tha Llnnton road. Tha macadamised part of tha road la In many plaoes merely a, patch of rolling atoijea, and .travelers now drive along tha sides. But tha dirt Ides will soon be worn out, too. Road Superintendent Chapman says that automobiles are to blama for tha condition of tha road. The Llnnton road has a larger auto travel than any ?ther, aa ll Is the onir thoroughfare in hat direction. The worat part of tha road now la five or six miles out, be tween Portland and the Claremont tav ern. Thia roadbed was built about ona year ago. Many people do not realize that auto mobiles wear out a road faster than any other class of traffic," said Mr. Chapman. "On a macadamized road the wheels of wasons pack tha earth and keen If in good condition. Gravel and llttlestones on the surface are crushed or packed into the dirt. But wnen an auto comes smashing along it tears off the surface. Jars the earth be neath, throws the dust to tha side of the road and scatters the gravel or lit tle surfaco stones, in a little while we find that the road is 'skinned' all tha surface swept away. Mr. Chapman Bays that ha believes it will become necessary for Multnomah county to build roads for auto wear as well as for ordinary traffic, for automo biles have come to stay, and they will keep tha county busy building roads for ail time unless tney are oonsiaerea in tne construction. By using oil and sneclal construction the road can be fortified against tha auto, to cover tne extra expense Mr. Chapman advocates a special tax on au tomobiles, the money derived from it to be devoted exclusively to roads that are most used by the machines. What will be done with the Llnnton road is undecided. It 's too late in the season to oil. and the commissioners do not like to rebuild with macadam just now. fat Is An Offense Tha female form being capable of expressing a supreme degraa of grace, should bo an inspiration In our dally Uvea and lead up to higher Ideale of beauty," said tha art lecturer.. "There fore the fat woman la an enemy to tha artlstlo uplift, for she la entirely too heavy for any wlnga of fancy to raise. "I can't understand how any woman will remain fat when It la so easy to reduce ona'a flash. In tha Latin quar ter of Parla ona navar sees a gross figure. Although tha art models take things easy, sit around a great deal and eat just whatever they please, yet they keep their flesh firm and their figures beautiful. They have a simple fat reducer that takes tha place of starving and gymnastics. ' It consists of a teaapoonful after meals and at bedtime of thia simple receipt: H- ounca Marmola. H-ounoa F1ult Extract Caacara Aromatlo, and Vfe ounces Syrup Simplex. That's all. Why don't fat. Dudrv American woman try thatT It's harmless nay, vary good for them and will. I understand, take off as much as a pound of fat a day. Any one with a little small change and a drug store bandy can have a aeoeui figure."

Thirty years of drug experience with the Portland people have given him a reputation for reliability and honorable dealing. these men have of the workings of nrfsnnt charter. Grutze not only kn the present charter, but is familiar with past charters having been in the cltv auditor's office for more than 18 years In which time he has become thorough ly familiar with the handling of the city's business. The other members of the committees have not vonly knowledge of the work they will be called upon to perform, but have ability alng the lines neces sary to successfully change the present methods Into something like an orderly arrangement of the city's government. PROBE DEEP INTO EAST Sll East Taylor Street Residents Determined on Rigid In vestigation of Work. i Indignation on tho part of the east side residents who are protesting aeainst the style of the East Taylor A.

Beazan w)H-n Anton Glebisch, one of the contractors of the firm of Glebisch Jopiln, presented himself unbidden and tried to explain away the dissatisfaction. There was a large attendance, and every property owner signed an agree ment to stand his share of the expense of a thorough Investigation of the mat ter arid or litigation ir n ufcuniouctTi! sary. Ralph O. Duniway was tfpoken of as the probable attorney to be en gaged on the case. Mr. Glebisch was present and re sented the term "graft" as publicly ap plied to the )ob. He was told that It had not been applied to him personally, but that there was Kraft somewhere, and the property holders Intended to find out where, and that since he had come unbidden to refute the charge he must feel some of the responsibility. Mr. Glebisch said that he had lived up to his part of the contract, and that tho fault did not He with the con tractors. He also protested that the kind of work wanted could not be done for the price paid, but the residents In dignantly objected that that should have been provided for in the contract snd not after it was all done. The mem bers of the meeting felt that his ex planation was halting; and unsatisfac tory, and Justified more than ever their decision to Investigate the matter and see where the blame lay. There has been a good deal of dissat isfaction felt In North Alblna about street Improvements, and some com plaints have been registered now and Rave the Discount Send check or ait then.

The contract was awarded yesterday. The organization will be practically the same that Is now playing the park con certs here. The fair opens In September, to con tinue 10 days, beginning September 28, and closing October 8. It will be on a larger seals than ever, and the best of attractions are therefore being secured at an early date. This Is the third year of the agricul tural fair and It will be the second sea son for Slgnor DeCaprlo's band there, that organization having filled the con tract the opening year with great credit Many requests have come from the public to have the free park band con certs continued to the end of August, In view of the successful season. The solution of the question rests with the park board and tho city council. It be ing for them to provide, through appro priation, the few hundred dollars neces sary for the additional weeks. The season will end with next week under present arrangements. In view of the fine weather and the popularity of the concerts the season will possibly be extended another two weeks. This at any rate is the wish of the thousands who attend the concerts as faithfully as the days roll by. Last night's concert at Holladay park drew the usual laree Wednesday even ing crowd, numbering several thousand people. A fine program was rendered. and several encores were responded to.
