THREE WEEKS COMING
THURSDAY NIGHT

The play dramatized from the dar-
ing book of that name written by
Eleanor Glynn is causing much spec
ulation in this city. It has had a run
for the money of San Francisco for
the past two weeks and drops off at
Salem before a weeks engagement
at the Bungalow in Portland. Man
ager Meredith is at a loss TO know
how IL will be received at Salem.
The company is fine one, the seen
cry must be gorgeous to match the
descriptions in the book, and II Beryl
Hope is half as pretty as the heroine
is described or as she is pictured in
the press matter ent out, she alone
will be worth going to see for the
price of admission. 1t is not often
so up-to-date a play is dropped off
at town the size of Salem and our
people may not be ready for 1t. Mr.
Meredith is afraid some of the young
men may be scared out of taking
their best girl, but wishes to assure
the lovers of good plays that the
piece is perfectly proper and will not
shock the young lady the least bit
IL she musters up the courage to at
tend. IL will probably be a repeti-
tion of the sentiment emblazoned on
the shield of the Knights of the
Garter OF old, noni soft qui NAL y
pense."

a surprise by Offering TO supply this
city with gas at $3.50 per thousand

His offer was not accepted by Man
ager Page, who said he had no au-
thority to act In the matter. Page
says his company is preparing to put
IN a large holder and has acquired
nearly the entire block OF property
where the gas wOrRs are located and
expect To get a franchise down Front
street and move their ear barns over
there The record for gas manu-
iacture at Salem Is not very encour-
aging, 10 having cost S2.21 per 1909
to make gas during February, 1908,
and the cost OF making gas at Salem
during the whole year was $4,000
greater than the receipts, Mr. Page
has got the cost down during the
present year TO following figures:
January Sl,44, February S1.41,
March Sl,47, April S1.73. May Sl.57
per 1000 cubic feet.
Mayor Rodgers is a man who can
organize syndicates 90 handle real

B. P. O. ELKS WILL ELECT
EXALTED RULER TODAY
UNITED Press Leased wire. J

Los Angeles, Juiy 13.-As the
hour for election of exalted ruler and
his subordinate officers of the B. p
o. r. assembled here in convention
draws nearer, indications point more
and more to the election of August
Garry Hermann of Cincinnati, o.,
when ballots are cast and counted
this afternoon. Several nominatlrg
speeches for both sides are sehed-
uled and reckoning in the time for
casting of ballots, It is improbable
that the result will be in before late
tnis afternoon.
The first disappointment of Her.
mann's leading antagonist, J. U.
Sammis of Iowa, came with the an
nouncement of the absence of Chas.
h. Pickett Sammis' chief supporter.
Nearly every official of the grand
lodge is against the election of Sam
mis-, and many Sammis men have ex-
pressed the conviction that the cleo
tion of the Iowa man would surprise
them, although they are not abating
their work in his behalf.
