IDEA IS REVOLUTIONARY Xnglaes Industry Upon Which -co-. aomio Life Is Bud Would Oo Zato Discard With Oarabed in U. In the pressure of events during the closing days of the special session, congresa found time to authorise . Oarabed T. K. Oiragosslan to make a demonstration of his free energy gen erator, which he calls Garabed, before - the secretary of the iaterlor. If Oara bed will -do what Its mveiitui claims for it. it will not only win the war but revolutionize the economic life of the world. Oiragosslan, who has con vinced the patents committee of his reliability. Is a Bosionian Who has been working on a plan to harness free energy for 26 years. Although wlllInK to tell what Garabed will ac complish, its lnventer is not yet ready to describe it. Oiragosslan must con vince the seeretary of the Interior and a board of five scientist before the government will enter Into an agree ment with him. If it succeeds the gov ernment is to have the right to use it for any and all purposea. No other except Oiragosslan, however, jjnay make any use of it. That is his Only request. A complete account of the claims made for Oarabed, written by John D. Wilcox, was published in The Sunday Journal April 15, which read In part as follows: team Zaglna Doomed "Oarabed Is a discovery of free en ergy that sounds ' the doom of the steam engine and will send the name of the. inventor reverberating down through the corridor of time.. "Who la Oarabed? He is Oarabed T. K. OlraKOsslan of Boston. Mass., and If Oarabed Oiragosslan Is a good sam ple of his name, we wonder what the T. K. Stands for. However. Glragos alan has discovered an engine or de vice occupying small space and of in expensive construction, which extracts nitrogen from the air without the aid of iteam, coal, oil, fuel, electricity , or any known motive power. He names It after himself. "Oarabed," and to keep It secret he buries the only account of It I have seen, In the Congressional Record, that much abused Record that has started more fires than any known publication In this land. . "By the use of Garabed the greatest obstacle to the use of aircraft is elim inated, as any air machine can be op erated by Its ufse without fuel. The abundance of energy will maVe It pos sible to equip aircraft with huge ajid powerful gyroscopes. It can supply the airship with. an Immense quantity of enerry, tens of thousands of horse power, or las much as necessary, en abling the airman to encircle the ' glob as many times as he pleases without descending to the ground be cause of scarcity of energy. Zconomlo Xdfa Bevolntloalxed "But to descend to earth, to , tJw common every day grind! Mr. Oira gosslan claims that one. of his free energy generators, .built at the same .expense as a good cooking Btove, can supply five ordinary families with sufficient heat, light and energy for domestic purposes without additional expense. I'nder the free energy sys tem, the present employes, working lowly thre3 hours per day, will be able to produce more than 10 times the whole product of today. ( "I will ubo the Inventor's own . printed word: "However, In a thou sand ways freo energy, multiplying the prodncInK capacity of Industry and Increasing many time the produc tivity of our earth, will sink the pres ent prosperity and world's produced wealth Into Insignificance. Conse quently It can be safely said that . poverty will be abolished. Thanks to the advancement of science and art; there will be no poverty wherever free energy may have free exercise. Every thing becoming abundant, the question Of bread and butter will be perfectly solved. The cruel war for the neces- ltles of life wjll cease. Th unedu cated, ragged, destitute persons, and beggars will disappear from th0 streets.' "Mr. OlrsKosslan predicts a great revolution In the navigation world; , that the ships will be built larger To Save Beauty - Avoid Dyspepsia ut Don't Starve.

He expects to drive the Oarabed Bbip 100 knots per hour and make the rua from Boston to London in 30 hours and to Constantinople In 40 houra. He says: 'Manila will be nearer to us than San Francisco 13 today. The East Indies will be regarded as close a neighbor as the West Indies are now. Asiatic fruits will reach Boston fresher than we can get fruit from California today. Bos ton and Constantinople, San Francisco and Manila will become close neigh bors, as the stream of civilization will take a wider, more powerful and more general spread.' The Garabed will re lease in a modern Titanic 5000 tons of coal and engine room. IaTentor'a Claims "The nearest approach to a descrip tion of his Invention is given in his own language from the Congressional Record : , " 'In order to form an idea ot the Garabed, we have to imagine a work ing engine the motor power of which Is not steam, but something else which ran be obtained freely. The size of this motor and the quantity of energy fo be produced by it are dependent upon our will and enterprise. It can be manufactured with less expense and occupies less space and is very much lighter than the steam engine with ita numerous appliances. It is portable and can be placed and put into opera tion wherever there exists a spark of human life. Consequently the steam engine will become obsolete and the Innumerable legion of them will van ish as the dew before the morning Bun.' " RUINS OF RHEIMS ? CATHEDRAL MARK OF GERMAN STUPIDITY (Continued From Psa-e One) years ago, who 'would have predicted that any nation could have- bled like j this, and still stand upright with spirit unbroken! The victory of the Marne was the essential turning point of the. first-year. Just as the coming of the United States of America to the side of France appears to have been the essential turning point of this year. French Spirit Inspiring There is evidence on every hand that the decision of the United States to fight for the cause of the allies gave new moral force to France. It has seemed to me that even during the few weeks that I have been trav eling through various districts, and talking with the people of many vil lages and with soldiers of many na tions. I have felt the spirit of France rlsring and the will to conquer finding new expression. There is certainly more fighting power In the French army today than there was Just be fore the United States entered the war. This appears to be a universal Judgment. The appreciation of the people of France is shown In many ways, and always with a graciousness character istic of these people, but not so com monly found in the United States. As I sit here in the Crillon writlne I can look straight across the Place de ia Loncorae to the chamber of depu ties on the other side of the Seine. On the right are the statues of Al sace and Lorraine. bedecked with many flowers and the flags of a!l the -'i" ueiuer 01 me square is tne ooensK, renc of the aggressive empire that is no more.

Then I thought Paris was under bombardment. A moment later, I was sufficiently? awake to know that a thunder storm had suddenly broken over Paris. I went out on the balcony to watch it. While I watched the lightning struck at several places near by, Including, as I learned the next morning, : the Palais de Justice and Notre Dame cathedral. An Impending Air Bald Altogether, it was a more exciting night than the one, shortly after I reached Paris, when the siren whistles of .the fire engines screamed through tho streets, for half an hour, their warning of the coming of a German alr-ra1d. At once all the lights or the city were extinguished. I groped my way down to the lobby of the hotel, where people were huddled in various attire, wijth one candle to cheer them. Then I went out in the great Place de la Concorde, where I could see the French airplanes, sent up to meet the raiders, apparently going at great speed and dodging the stars. Each looked like a star of the first magnl tude so much so, Jn fact,' that one airplane, flying toward us, I mistook for a star, until it changed its course. No Bosch planes reached Paris that night. Yesterday, under trie guidance of a lieutenant of the French army, de tailed for the purpose, I was taken through a city that has been under fire every day for two weeks, and where nobody lives except In vaulted caverns far underground. At tne sec ond lino of trenches we were met by tne commandant of the sector, a major of 63 years, of courtly manner and' beglgn welcome, serene and proud, with three sons at the front. He showed us every phase of . opera tions and construction and equipment. and took us to the observation posts in advance of the first trench of the front lines, where we could see the ijrerman trenches at close range, a lively fight overhead, and. behind the enemy lines, a lovely French village, soft in color, perfect In sky lines, surrounded by still pastures and brown wheat fields, as peaceful in ap pearance as the quietest town of the Willamette valley. The Ruined Bheims Cathedral Directly behind us. in the midst of a devastated city, was the sublimest and most tragic of all the ruins have seen, the Rhelms cathedral. It will stand there perhaps for centuries a monument to German stupidity 11 represents their attempt to kill a God with guns their failure to under stand how the spirit can triumph over crushed stone. I cannot tell you more now, but you shall 'see it all, in pic tures, much as I saw it. If you like; ror every opportunity has been af forded me to take to America a pho tographic account of France at war, The trench government has put at my disposal more than 10,000 photo graphs or the camps, trenches, can teens, aviation fields, munition fac tones, postes de secours. hospitals prison camps and ruined towns that I have visited. I have also had the aia 01 jraui Kamey. of motion-picture fame, who is now the staff photo grapher of the Red Cro&s and of the United States army. Major-General Pershing and his staff have aided me with everything tljat concerns the United States army in France. Thorough Observation Made I have visited all the camps of our own soldiers in France, and nearly all the .war areas from the Brftish lines to Switzerland. I "have spent a few days in Switzerland and a few days in southern France. I have inspected every type of care of the wounded men, from the first-aid stations in the front trenches, and the postes de secours aid evacuation hospitals be hind the lines, to the base hospitals in Paris and Bordeaux. I have run into a town under bombardment in the middle of the night by mistake and know how that looks and feels. I have visited the Y. M. C. A- at Paris and their huts in the camps. I have seen the work of more than 100 vol unteer relief organizations, most of which are now affiliated with the American Red Cross. I have seen many hundred ruined cities and towns. I have followed the French soldiers from the front to their rest stations, and seen their canteens and provisions for recreation. 1 have fol lowed the rapatries from Germany, through Switzerland, to Evian-des-Bains, where they are received from Belgium, exactly J000 a day. And much more I have en- fnr though I have been in France only a uiuuin, 1 nave been eager to learn. ana nave put in long days. During wo weeks. 1 shall look fur ther into the profound -economic and social effects of 1 women in industries hitherto open only to men; and I shall visit additional aviation schools, and schools for the re-education of wounded soldiers. Portland and the Old World I shall do all I can to be prepared fo the lectures on "France at War" that the war council of the Red Cross have asked me to give at Portland and in other cities. An.t Twti.r.4 will aook good to me crude though it Is compared with these ' beautiful cities of the old world -for Portland has the flexibility and courage and premise of youth. What it may be come gives imagination the wings of an aviator, when the city u seen against the background of Europe, and with J000 miles for perspective. CHERNIAVSKY TRIO HOLDS AUDIENCE AT Three Brothers Are Given Ap plause That Amounts Al most to Ovation at Heilig, By J. li. Wallin The Cherniavsky Trio held a fair sized audience spellbound at the Heilig t.heatre Saturday night with a program for violin, cello and pi-no, as delight ful as difficult, and the three brothers, Leo, Jan and Mischal, in return were rewarded with applause that bordered on the ovation. Tne cherniavsky brothers have been heard here before a year ago, when they made their debut at the Heilig and scored a big success then, but they h&Yej developed wonderfully during the interim and how certainly rank among the foremost ensembles in the' world. As such they are entitled to the most encouraging patronage. Technique Is Marrelous They are booked for a second recital next Wednesday night at the same place, and music lovers who attend may be sure that they will not be dis appointed. The Cherniavsky brothers possess marvelous technic and musical tem perament in abundance,' and have their programs down to the .cme of perfec tion, and, too, they understand the art of program building. in solo work the brothers appeared with fully as much brilliancy as in the ensemble, and all of them were recalled a number of times. Frank St. Leger, Madame Melba's accompanist, fills that important position this season with the violinist and cellist and his selec tion is a nappy one. Program for Wednesday The program ror next Wednesdav night will be as follows: Trio for Pianoforte, violin .mi iHvtin- cello in B flat major. Opus 99 (Frana Schubert), Rondo, enegro vivace. Leo, Jan and Mischel Cherniavsky; violon cello solos, (a) "Evening Song" (Schu mann), (b) "Rondo" (Baccarini). (c) 'fcerceuse (Mischel Cherniavsky), (d) 'At the Fountain" (Ta.virtottt miiii Cherniavsky; pianoforte solos, (a) Noc turne in j? snarp major, upus 15 (Chop in), (b) Three Preludes, No. 8, 23, 24 inopin;, to tjauaue in A flat (Chopin), Jan Cherniavsky; violin con cert D minor (first movement) (TschaJkowsky). Leo Cherniavskv: trios for pianoforte, violin and violon cello, (a) "Romance" (Glinka), (b) "Norwegian Dance" (Griee). fc "Slav Dance" (Brahms), Leo, Jan and Mis chel Cherniavsky. BRITISH GUNS RUMBLE OUT DEATH NOTE (Continued From Page One) British artillery completely dominates them. There were no new counter attacks in the last 24 hours. The British con tinued to consolidate their- new lines, although the Bavarian crown prince's big guns played a steady concerted fire on them. 'Otherwise there wero only raids on tha British front. CorrV scondents continue ; to renort on the Magnitude of 4he -Oeriaan losses Thursday. At Verdun the German throne heir continues his .heavy attacks, especially on the right bank of the Mouse. The official Paris communique admits that In one of their onslaughts the Teutons gained a footing in the French : lines near Hill 344, but adds that they ajrere promptly enjected by a counter thrust.

He will h th guest of his mother and sister for a wee, at tne Nortonia hotel. Plays Produced by Brady Mr. Goodman ventured into th niav. j writing field about a dozen years aeo wnn a turgia study or ghetto social ' life, called "The Right to Live," which 1 was ionowed by a problem play,. "The Test," in which the late Blanche Walsh was seen in Portland. "The New Gen eration," his next dramatic contribu tion, had its initial appearance in Chi cago, with Louis Mann and Mathilda Cottrelly In the leading roles. After ward it was named "The Man Who 8erd "mT Mann prontlbly1 for o btood 6tlU," and under this title years. William A, Brady was then, as now. Mr. Goodman's patron and guide in matters theatrical. And it was Mr. Brady who put on the young author's' next play, called "Mother," some seven years ago. Mother" was a big suc cess ana was ionowea by seven or eight other original plays produced, save one. by Mr. Brady and one dramatization, that of Robert Louis Stevenson's "Treasure Island." Although many other playwrights had tried to fashion the famous Ste- I vensori yarn into footllgftt form, Mr. Goodman's was the very first success ful attempt. For months, season be fore last, it packed the Punch and Judy theatre In New York, and was followed by a Chicago runs. Big Successes Scored "The Man Who Came Back" is the Portland playwright's greatest tri umpn. Dramatized by Mr. Goodman from a magazine story of John Fleming Wilson's, It was a - sensational suc cess, outrunning all other plays In New York last season. From Septem ber 2, 1916, it continued withoutr in terruption at the Playhouse, New York, ! concluding two weeks ago kith its four .'hundred and sixty-seventh per formance.

The Eversons were divorced five years ago. According to Mrs. Ever son's statement. Judge Campbell, who presided in the case, awarded the cus tody of her infant daughter to her for 10 months of the year and to the father for two months. Recently Everson obtained an order from Judge Campbell restraining the mother from interfering with the child in any jway. This order, she asserts, was never served on her. In accordance with the orirlnal rul- I ing. she states, she brought the child to Portland in July and turned her over to her father. "When it was whispered to.me." Mrs. Everson says, that the father intended to keep the child, I returned to Port land, intending at the expiration of the two months to get the child.
