CITY COUNCIL WILL
ADVISE ENGINEER
VIII Meet Tonight To Quiet
Fears of Government
Engineers

A meeting of the city council has
been called for this evening by Mayor
Walter f. Keyes to pass resolutions to
the effect that the proposed bridge
over the Willamette river will not in
any way interfere with any water front
or harbor improvements contemplated
by the City of Salem Also to secure
an expression of opinion from the city
fathers as they approve of the con
struetion of the bridge at Center
street.
1t seems that the governments en-
gineers must be assured that the bridge
will not interfere with any docks that
the city expects to build before they
will go on with the work. To give them
this assurance, and that everything is
all right, the council will be asekd to
pass resolution to that effect, which
will be presented to the engineers at
their meeting with the state highway
commission tomorrow in Portland. As
the Willamette is a navigable stream,
the government engineers require all
kinds of information. 1t is possible
that mass meeting of citizens may be
called to further impress the engineers
that everybody is willing that the
bridge should be built and that Cen
ter street is satisfactory location.

Annual Performance
In Solid Steel Arena

With four rings and two steel arenas,
hundreds of new animals and dozens
Of new acts, the Al. G. Barnes big four
ring wild animal circus is coming to
Salem on Friday, May IL.
The entertainment provided by the
Barnes circus is original, new, clean
and instructive. Many sensational and
thrilling features abound throughout
the program which is opened by the
most gigantic animal pageant conceiv-
able, march that includes 1000 an
imals in glorious scintillating trap,
pings, 800 people and natives of the
wild Nianzi country. The program is
full of dash and life as daring animal
educators risk their lives in teaching
and presenting ferocious beasts in
thrilling and extraordinary circus acts
Thirty of the largest, full grown,
man eating African lions are seen in
one act. This big sensational exploit
is remarkable. $4,000 worth of lions
are seen in the arena at one time, a
single man putting them through their
performances.
A troup of thirty bears is a part Of
the wild animal actor section. Amer
lean and Russian grizzlies, cinnamon
sable, sloth, polar and black bears are
seen mostly in comedy lines and eques'
trian and wrestling features. Two
herds of elephants among them q
secred Burmese baby elephant which
has been educated to let sea lion ride
on its back,
Martha Florine and her leopards il
leaping and fire hoop jumping, "sam
son" an aviation lion, are also som(
of the thrillers.
Augmenting the wild animal fca
lures are many other highly educated
animals in acts Of less "shivery' ma
ture. Dogs and monkeys in high
dive and trapeze work goats, pigs an'
Barnes challenge horses and ponie
are prominently displayed. Over 1905
animal actors in 65 feature acts. 4
score of human clowns and fifty ami
mails provide the fun. Electric fans
electric lights, seats with back AM
foot rests make for the comforts 0
the patrons. A jungle nursery for tn
kiddies, and the big free two-mile lon
/ street parade at 1880 for everybody

RehfelGs Murderer
Purchased a Cap

Seattle, Wash, April 20.-His hands
and coat sleeves covered with blood,
the man believed to have murdered
Aaron Rehfeld, diamond broker, in the
Joshua Green building here yesterday
noon, rushed into the Burnside hat
store and calmly purchased cap, a
few minutes after the crime had been
committed.
This new angle of the stabbing was
discovered by a reporter today, and
communicated to the police. The hat
shop is only half block from the
Green building.
A new theory today was that the
murderer did not make his frantic
exit from the Green building by ele
vator, but dashed down one or more
flights of stairs and then escaped tC
the alley by the fire escape.
Clerks in the hat shop say the hatles'
man came from the alley.

SAYS It IS STICKY
BUT Who WILL CARE
Cincinnati Man Tells How to
Shrivel Up COrns So They
Lift Out

Ouch 2 ia! This kind of rough
talk will be heard less here in town if
people troubled with corns will follow
the simple advice of this Cincinnati
authority, who claims that few drops
of drug called freezone when applied
to tender, aching corn stops soreness
at once, and soon the corn dries up
and lifts right out without pain.
He says freezone is a sticky sub
stance which dries Immediately and
never inflames or even irritates the
surrounding tissue or skin. A quarter
of an ounce, which will cost very little
at any drug store, is said to be suffi'
cient to remove every hard or soft
corn or callus from one IS feet. Millions
of American women will welcome this
announcement since the Inauguration
of the high heels.
