MORE HALF PRICE BARGAINS YESTERDAY WAS A BUSY DAY AT EILERS DOLLAR-A-WEEK SALE OF FINE PIANOS. STREETS Pile; LOT VALUES IIP Hard-Surfacing: of Thor oughfares Has Immediate Effect on Property. That permanent Improvement of n treftt is Immediately followed by an In crease In the market value of the prop erty on that street much more than the coat of the pavement Is plainly shown by the experience of Albina property owners. No man condemned to a ride over the bumpy plank road that waa called Wil liams avenue three years affo could wonder that realty values were not I hlncner on that thoroughfare. At thel present day. on the other hand, no one traveling over Williams avenue can be surprised that prices on both sides of Kussell street have more than doubled since the pavement was laid. Street Awaited Farement. 19 Is of course true that In the past three years there has been a strong ad vance In property values all over the city, but Williams avenue was simply awaiting a hard-surface pavement be fore lecomlngr the Important street It is nerw, a street that It Is a pleasure to trot a horse- or motor over. There is a lot 60x125 feet on Wil liams avenue, near Sellwood. which changed hands shortly before the pave ment was completed for a price of 13. BOO. It is now held at $S,000. for Williams avenue is on the better-street list of Portland and the values have risen in proportion. This is one of the most conservative instances of the In crease in value. "All the property alone this street has . lust about doubled since we got pavement." said J. F. Wilson, of the red-letter thoroughfares of Poitlahd so far as p.-tvement 1 concerned. Waa $8,000; Wow $10,000. Another Instance on this same street' of the doubling In value of property Is that of the lonlon property at Kusso.ll and Rodney avenue. Itefore the pave ment was laid this ground. 00x1 2ti feet In slue, changed hands for the consider ation of $5,(100. then thought to be a good price. It would reoulrn $10,000 or better to gain the ownership of this lot at present. Williams avenue Is both a residence and a business street and furnishes one of the best examples of that lesson which oiher cities have learned -thnt a permanent. Improvement more than pays for Itself. Not only have the values on that thoroughfare Itself gone unay up since the days of the plank road, but the owners of property on parallel nnd cross streets have been materially ben efitted because of the Williams avenue pavement. Many Demand ImproTement. The 1ft miles of hard-surfaee pave ment contracted for and for which pro ceedings nave negun represents but aj orop in tne mjcKct so tar as the pav ing of Portland Is concerned, but It shows most conclusively thnt property owners all over the town are alive tii the Imperative need of better streets for the Rose ("Itv. and are not dlsnosed to let a stubharn minority who consider only the temporary state of their purse keen bark an Improvement that Is nat urally demanded. It Is evident that l!o;, though not a banner year commercially nnvnhere In the country will before it Is ended see the laying of more square vards of pavement than anv other vear In the history of Portland The year Is but half over and yet 16 miles of hnrd-sur-face paving have been absolutely assured. Following out Its policy of securing only such Judges as have hud nation wide experience and success in niakln awards In tho various divisions and classes they handle, the Country club and Livestock association has received the acceptance of the position aa JudKC of the beef breeds at the coming live stock show from . F. Btodder of llur den, Kan. Stodder haa been a familiar figure at the leading fat stoik shows of the country for a number or yea is. and Is regarded as a moat capable of ficial In everv wav.

The committee wi general manage ment of the entire program for the race meet un livestock show has held almost dully sessions this week, und will make an Important report ut th directors' meeting next Monday. Chair man F. O. Downing says that the com mittee has made good progress In stripping awny a lot of details and will 1 get rlht down to business next week ' The handling of concessions has proved to be a most difficult nut to . crack, for the applications already re- : celvej run well Into the hundreds, and ! Include everything from poprorn and orangeade up to a locomotive collision. The classification of these and phiriiiK the figures submitted on some compar ative base has been taken up the time of the committee at two sessions so far, and the lfst has not been checked entirely as yet.

KmpliHtlcnlly this In the most extra- ordtnarv salo of pianos Portland has ever had. you will admit It If you come. The time and circumstances are not ordinary, else we'd hesitate to sacrifice so greatly.

"midway," "pike," or something of that sort will be arranged for, and all ronresslona ries will be turned loose In there on a percentage basis. Other classes of concessions are likely to be given an "npn" field, as many as care to accept the terms fixed by the Asso ciation belnR allowed to operate on the Krnu nds. To show the extreme lengths to which concessionaries go, one man has made a cash offer for the Ice cream, ire ( ream soda. popcorn, pop, peanuts, gum, candies, cigars, lemonade privi leges in grandstand, pavilion, stork i barns, raring stables, for the next five! years, to rover every day of the vear on whloh anv attrartlons are given.

"It's rather hard to give present values because there la very little bing offered for sale along Williams avenue." What Happened on B assail. Mr. Wilson was asked about Russell atreet, whose intersection with Williams avenue forma the busiest corner in Al bina. "Russell street property was held very low before we got the pavement there," said he. "but though the pave ment has been down only about one year there has certainly been a big in- crense in ine values alone the street. The property, 40x100 feet on Rus sell, between Rodney and fnion ave nue, occupied by the Woorimen build ing, was sold for $1,100 a short time be fore the hard-surface pavement was laid. The ground Is held to be worth $4,000 at a conservative estimate. The pavement was completed a year ago. Aside from the pavement there have been few changes in the things that make for the desirability of a street but that piece of property gained in market value $2,900 in the course of one year, for Russell street Is one of II. O. Pecker is one of those men who firmly believe that If you say anything strong enough and keep right on saying it to everybody there Is money to be gained. So he put the "Exposi- tlon fJrease Eradlcator" on the 4 market and began peddling It around the city. "It is made for me in the east on a prescription of my own,'- he has told a hundred housewives. He charged 60 cents for a small cake. Fome people thought the "eracllcator" looked familiar, so they Investigated. They re ported to the police that Decker had cut Ivory soap Into tiny cakes, wrapped them in tinfoil and began to tell his story. The police are looking for him.
