TO REBUILD ROYAL THEATER

Mr.. Frank Diamos has informed
"The Oasis" that he has arranged for
rebuilding the Royal Theater, and
work of demolition will begin very
shortly, which accomplished he will
erect upon the site a modern temple
Of the drama which will be the latest
word in theatrical architecture. In all
its appointment the new theater will
be complete, and right down to date.
The facade will be very handsome
architecturally, and it will be a de-
cided improvement to that part OF
Morley avenue, removing one of the
oldest buildings in the city, which has
stood alone some time among struc-
lures more modern and handsome,
and the new edifice will fill an un-
slightly gap in fine frontage along
that avenue.
The new house will cater to the
best and most critical tastes among
theatergoers and movie fans, and it
will mark another step forward in the
progress of the Line City.

TERFEITINC REV.
ENUE ST A N PS
Implicated in a Ring That
Operates in a Wide Range
of Country, in Both Uni
ted States and Canada

SAN FRANCISCO, Dec, 9-Today
federal secret service operatives ar
rested three men whom they charge
with implication in a counterfeiting
ring that has been operating in Van
couver British Columbia), Los An
geles, Phoenix, Salt Lake City, Chi
cago and Montreal.
The men were taken in a raid on
a house on Tehama Street. They
gave the following names: Martin
Cleary J M Ward and Harry Casey.
Ward and Casey are said to be from
Portland.
Several thousand counterfeited in
ternal revenue stamps, with the pla-
tes from which they were made, were
taken, according to Harry Moffett, of
the federal secret service, who con-
Quoted the raid.
The raid was made upon tip from
Salt Lake City where arrests were
made of three men giving their names
as J. J. Boyd, Scotty Cunningham
and w. C. Bird. Correspondence found
in Birds effects is said to have i'm
plicated the men arrested here, and
discovery of the counterfeited stamps
with their plates, corrobrated the
evidence found at Salt Lake.
The charge is that the men sold
to regular liquor dealers the counter
felt stamps and the purchasers used
them to make illicit liquor appear
like bonded goods. 1t is charged,
also, that the men were in the illicit
manufacture of liquor themselves, and
used the counterfeit stamps upon their
own product.
