HUlsbord, Or., Aug. 20. As reports
of damage by last week's storm are re
ceived it appears that it will he much
loss ttvan was anticipated,-the principal
loss , being ..In discolored grain and hay
left unprotected In fields by owners
who did not anticipate rain in August.
Home grain was also beaten down by
the heavy rain. With the hot sun of
Monday it became apparent that hop
losses will be merely the expense of
lifting the vines beaten down by the
high winds, and that tho rain Instead of
injuring has fea'lly benefited the crop.
Had tlie wet weather continued there
would have been danger of mold, espe
peclally in the vines that are down, but

High Class Attractions Please
. Audience; Grace Cameron
Makes Hit.
This week's bill at the Orpheum,
opening yesterday, offer particularly a
medley of melody and mirth, which Is
altogether acceptable.
Turn number one, musical, is, offered
by the Taklness, under the title, the
"Stammering Tutor." Why such a tltie.
Ajp evlleHtXi:J(jft for the audience to
conjecture. TJie peculiar voice vibra
tion of the main member of the Takl
ness duo Is a feature of the act.
Then conies Bob and May Kemp In
"Matrimonial Bliss," this title also be
ing but an excuse under whleh the
Kemps put over some tuneful, song
stuff and breezy comedy.
Hlehnrd N.jjsmlth and Vorno Sheridan,
In ".Squaring Accounts," have a 20 min
ute sketch In which they run the gamut
of emotions In working out the-tale of
a newsboy w teaches an attenuated
landlord how to shoot craps, and takes
him into camp. I
Carl MeCullough, hilled as the "Dy
nam I to Comedian," offers a good, clean
vaudellle act, featirrlng sorno clever
travesties on well known actors, as well
as a laughable takeoff on the breakfast
food demonstrator "in the basement."
"Tho Piano Movers," put on by Ed
mond Hayes. Kobert Archer and Miss
Marie Jensen, assisted' by a Mock and
ta. kle, a piano frame and a "duck," Is
Kimply a conglomeration of nonsense
that gets the laughs because It is so
outrageously silly. "The Piano Movers"
was evidently Intended for nothing but
fun, and that's nil there is to it.
Then comes Grace Cameron, "direct
from her London trlunVphs." Miss Cam
eron was happily received and sang sev
eral songs very acceptably. Miss Cam
eron's "kid" ditties were especially
happy.
The "Bounding Pattersons" close, next
to the pictures. They do some sonier
uultiig extraordinary, and furnish a
few thrills with their horizontal bar
work.
A western comedy drama photo play
is worth waiting for, to the average
vaudeville "fan," and, together with the
orchestra, completes the bill.
The program runs throughout the
week, with afternoon and evening per
formances. II
ALL WATER IT GETS
Answering the complaint of the North
Portland residents who have voiced an
objection to the extension of the water
mains to Llnnton, before North Portland
and other districts In the city are fur
nished, Llnnton "boosters" call attention
to the fact that Llnnton people them
selves are going to pay for all they, get,
and that Portland is in reality making
no concessions to Llnnton,
The water board has agreed to ex
tend the 18 inch main on the Llnnton
road to the city limits and from there
tho officials of Llnnton will make an
extension to their town of a 12 Inch
main, which will carry water enough to
supply the needs of the town satisfac
torily. Llnnton Is to pay the city 6 per cent
Interest on the cost of extending the
Uualiis Jo the, city ijcits, the regular rne-
er rates on water, and a small amount
to be applied to the bonded Indebtedness
Interest fund of the city.
With tills understanding, the Llnnton
people bold, It goes without sayings that
Llnnton is goln? to get no more than
It pays for, and they feel that under
the circumstances they are trending on
no one's toes, but are only reaping the
benefits of progressive hustling and en
deavor. Strange you never see a sale

(George Murdoek) portrays tho part of

to do, but make up for their scanty parts
by singing some very good and catchy
smigs. Miss Davis sings "A Beautiful

Howard "I'm Hypnotized.' "The Girl

Lyric all week, wtth daily matinees, two
performances nightly and the, chorus

Representatlng a plan for building a
macadam road on the Washington side
of the Columbia from Grand Dalles to
Vancouver, A. E. Woodruff, city en
gineer of White Salmon, oame to Port
land yesterday and conferred with Sam
uel Hill, Plill 8. Bates, and other good
roads authorities as to the best plan
of procedure.
"There lsn t a worse reeded road In
United States than this one," said Mr.
WToodruff. "The state should lead in
the plan of construction and the coun
ties through which the road is to be
constructed should come forward and
bear their due proportion of cost. That
would give us on the Washington sido
of the Columbia a tourist road from
Spokane to Vancouver and then over to
Portland. This city should be Inter
ested in the road because it would act
as an important feeder to Its trade.
"The road now, such as it is. Is un
equal to traffic and ls dangerous. I
believe there will be general support of
the plan for improvement."
Aunt Sally's Advice
to Beauty-Seekers
W. C. r. says: "My elbows are so
thick-skinned, gooseplmply and muddy,
1 can't wear short sleeves. How can
this condition be overcome?" Don't use
elbows as props. The treatment recom
mended to Minnie L. will make your
elbows quite presentable.
Ellen Tt. asks: "What should I do for
dop lines under my eyes and across my
forehead?" Much lines, and all wrinkles,
are best obliterated by bathing affectej
portions In a good astringent and tonic
lotion, which strengthens and draws In
the relaxed tissue. Here's a reliable
formula: 1 ounce powdered saxollte, H
pint witfh hae; tnix n4 use daily un
til entirely relieved.
Minnie L. : The undue redness, as
well as the pimples, rimy easily be re
moved by using ordinary mercolized
wax. Apply nightly like coia cream anu j
erase mornings wilm waim tvaiti. dudii
you'll have a beautifully white, clear,

Ized wax, sold by all druggists. Is better
than cosmetics for any complexion trou

Master Fish Warden Clanton has re
ceived : wordr from United states Fish
Commission Bower that authority has
b86"n given the superintendent ; of. tha
federal flab, hatchery at Yes Bay, Alas
ka, to turn over to the fish and game
commtstfionof Oregon- 2,000,000 " tilue
back salmon eggs. Warden Clanton will
send a man In October to bring the
eggs to Bonneville to be, hatched.
The arrangement was made with the
government two years ago to secure
.,000,000 bluebaek eggs each year for
four years, and 000,000 have alroady
been - hatched. The fish have " been
turned loose in th Columbia river for
the purpose of restocking the Columbia.
Formerly bltiebacks were numerous
In tho Columbia, but overfishing has
practically exterminated them. The
chief spawning ground were Wallowa
lake. Efforts have been mad by the
Washington fish commission to secure
spawn from fish taken In the river and
raise the salmon In small lake near
McGowan's cannery, across the river
from Bonneville. The experiment failed
owing to lack of mean of Introducing
fresh water Into the lakes.
