 Mr. Pierson's four horses include three pacers and a trotter, and all are new, having come in from the west four weeks ago. They are fine look ing specimens of horsefesh, however, and with careful training it will not be surprising if they hang up some good records.
 All of the horses show the results of the thorough-going attention they are getting q the hands of their care takers. During the hot spell some of them fell off a little in their feed tion, and it repays any lover of horse racing to pa visit to the Fair Grounds. A number of new arrivals at the training stables are expected in the next few weeks.

"Cross the Mexican Line" Solax.
A feature Solax film full of thrills and
patriotism. An American captain
teaches a Mexican girl the use of the
telegraph, which later prived his SAL
vation. The MeXicans, angered at the
Americans, came to the camptain's
rooms, tore down the Stars and
Stripes and tramped on it, and car
ried the captain across the line to
Mexico, where he was condemned to
death. But the girl climbed a pole,
cut the wires and telegraphed the
American army. The wild dash of
the American cavalry across the Rio
Grande, the battle with the Mexican
soldiers, and the thrilling rescue of
the captain just as he is to be shot,
is intensely thrilling. The pretty love
story adds interest to the piece. Beau

AEIATOR FREN MEETS
ACCIDENT IN MOUNTAINS

Viterbo, Italy, June 14.-The Ger
man aviator Frey, who started from
Rome at an early hour yesterday NOR
ming on the last stage Of the Paris
to Turin air race met with disaster
in the mountainous territory between
Viterbo and the capital. The other
contestants who got up as far as
Rome had given up, but Frey could
not be persuaded from making the
attempt to reach Turin although
warned that almost insurmountable
difficulties lay in his way.
Only a few miles out of Rome he
encountered a heavy fog and lost his
course. Soon he drove into a terrific
storm of rain and hail. He tried to
rise above the clouds but his machine
refused to respond. Suddenly it
swooped downward and the aviator
lost all control. 1t fell into a ravine
and was wrecked. That Frey was
not killed was due to the heavy he'll
met protecting his head and the
marshy ground into which he plung-
ed Both his arms and one leg were
broken while he was badly cut about
the face.
When a Red Cross searching party
from the San Martino station on
Monte Cimone found him he had lost
much blood and was almost unconsci-
Gus, buried under the aeroplane. The
aviator was able to tell of having been
lost in the fog. although he could
| give no reason for the fall.
Frey's wife is now in Florence
where she hoped to be present at the
landing of her husband. 1t is expect
| ed that she will come here tomorrow

The house of quality. A big special
for Tuesdays change. A picture that
every one is interest in, the Life of
Count Leo Tolstoi." Pathe. An in
teresting and intimate view of the
most loved man Russia ever produced.
Better than a biography. A closer in
sight into the character and every
day habits of this great man, his
family his home, his philanthropy
and his recreation may be obtained
from this film than by any other
means. Learn thus to know one of
the worlds greatest figures.
"The Angel of the Sums" Lubin.
This well told story has for it's heroine
a young woman settlement worker.
She saves a thief and induces him
to become a man. The views of slum
life are characteristic and are inter-
esting to audiences unfamiliar with
such scenes. In a way, too the film
shows the kind of work the social
settlements do. 1t is not too much
to call the picture educational.
American Beauties A pc fectly
glorious picture of roses and pretty
women. The most artistic film ever
released.
"On the Deserts Edge" Essanay.
Graphic scenes in and about the
great Mojave desert make this film

PORTLAND PAVENiENTS

BY Prominent Horseman and Citi-

lithic.

Mr.. T. S. Griffith of Spokane, WASH.
spent last week in Portland. Mr.
Griffith has some acquaintanceship
there. and the appended letter which
he wrote to his home paper, the
Spokesman-R Review, concerning pave
mcnts in Portland, will be of interest
to the people of Pendleton. 1t is
pleasing to note that the action of our
city council in the selection of street
pavements is indorsed by a man of
Mr.. Griffiths wide experience.
ITO the Editor of the Spokesman
Review: While in Portland during
the last few days l have noticed the
city is tearing up asphalt that has
only been down a few years, in order
to put on new coat, the asphalt hav-
ing become in a deplorable condition,
and knowing that Spokane is still US
ing asphalt pavement and specifying
more of it, it occurs to me to wonder
why we do not benefit by ther cities
experience.
81 have been over many miles of
pavements similar to asphalt, called
'bithulithic,' which seems to be made
of crushed stone and presents
rougher surface than asphalt, and yet
is more durable and does not crack.

paved with this material from the
Union depot to jefferson street, a dis
tance of about three quarters of a
mile, and Notwithstanding that this
pavement has been down eight years
it is in first class condition without
any cracks or flaws of any apprecia-
BILE wear.
81 think your readers will be inter-
ested to know that there is pave
ment laid in Portland that has the
qualities referred to that is better for
he horse than asphalt, in that it gives
a better foothold and yet is not rigid
like concrete or brick, which of
course is injurious to horses, and with
all is not noisy pavement like con-
crete and in every way desirable for
residence streets.
81 am therefore taking the liberty
of writing you as above and hope
have a similar high grade pavement
adopted in our city.
