Vaudvtil Esther Lewis. 14-year:old claimant to the uncertain Trinity estate or - new xorK Oil J, was piacea in u ore i ut Boys' and Girls' Aid society yesterday afternoon by Judge Cantenbein after an Investigation in the , Juvenile court. Neighbors had complained that the girl was ill-treated at home. Bhe has been living with her father, E. J. Lewis, and her stepmother, formerly Mrs. Rose Smith, at 62 Clackamas street, in Bell wood. The girl's alleged claim to the Trinity estate comes through her mother, who was Miss Emma Arland. The estate is valued at (100,000,000, lying in the heart of New York, and the struggle of the alleged heirs to pos sess it has gone forward many years without success. .

In this way, it is absorbed into the skin " This is the method of caring for her complex ion which is followed by "Iowa's most beautiful woman. : Ivory Doap 996 Per Cent. Pure ltt the new city charter now being drafted by a special commission is approved by the people, Portland's civil service system will be -the model In the future. The only important change is that the mayor will be vested with the power' of removing the commission ers and the mayor and council with filling the vacancies thus caused. The charter commission worked until a late hour last night and then adjourned to meet again Friday night Hereafter until the charter has been completed probably two meetings a week will be held. . Elections, it was decided, are to be held after the' same plan upon which they are conducted now. The propor tionate representation Idea advanced by Dr. C. H. Chapman was discussed briefly but discarded for the one adopt ed. In speaking for the new method of electing councllmen Dr. Chapman said: Would Make Elections rail. "There are to be six councllmen and each political faction In the city that has one-sixth of the voting strength of the community ought in all fairness to be allowed to pool their interests and elect one representative. This Is the plan of proportionate representation. Its object is to secure a measureable de gree of fairness in 'City elections, some thing which has never yet been secured in this country. It is a mistake, gen tlemen, for you to exclude this subject from further consideration." By a unanimous vote the commission made the term of office for the mayor and councllmen four years except at the first election, when three of the councllmen will be elected for only two years. Elections are to be held every two years thereafter. This provides Tor three holdover councllmen and is meant to prevent the possibility of an en tirely new council being elected at one time, thus checking progress by putting in a number of men wholly unfamiliar with the policies and plans of the city. Oearin 3bea4s right. Senator Oearin led the fight against the civil service plan suggested by the committee on civil service. The senator declared that he was in favor of a com mission appointed by the mayor and oouncll and subject to removal. He also wanted the heads of departments to have the right to remove employes with out assigning any reasons therefor and to shut off the privilege of appeal by discharged employes except in cases where polltlos or religion had been as signed as a reason for dismissal. Senator Oearin introduced a resolution to this effect which was carried by one vote. One of the members, C. M. Ryner son, afterwards said be had voted un der a misapprehension and asked for a reconsideration. The commission then voted to retain the right of appeal when employes had been discharged "for the good of the service." J. F. Logan's amendment to the report of the civil service committee was adapted. This makes it necessary for an appeal to be flleu with the commission within five days after a dismissal. wirTfIlsTh CURIOUS CROWD While a crowd which had stopped to look at a fallen electric power wire at Fourth and Yamhill streets was directly beneath It yesterday afternoon, a second wire broke, and it wa only by an appar ent miracle that no one suffered. The second wire fell half way between Yamhill and Taylor streets, and the slack dragsed the wire nearly to the pole at the corner of Taylor. One woman who was crossing the street with an umbrella over her head was totally unaware of her danger until the wire in falling touched her umbrella, and a score of men shouted a warning;. A Wells Fargo company express wagon was just rounding the corner, and the vagrant wire touched the top of the wagon. As the looee wire was dragged along the sidewalk by its own weight there was a general scurrying to get out of the way, and a dozen people Jumped over the writhing current laden strand. general discussion on the question "Was the Noble Self-sacrifice of Sydney Car ton within the range of Human Gen erosity?" was led by Mesdames Miles.
