COMMISSIONERS AT WORK Shoivers and Mock Attend to Coun ty'axBnalnesM. Yesterday County Commissioners Mack anu Showers inspected the east side ap proaches of the Morrison and Madison street bridges, which are being rebuilt nt n post of nbout 15000. This was neces sary, "because the timbers of the approach es w ere worn out and unsafe. Most of the new supports are already in and the next step will be to replank the approaches. The Commissioners, in view of the build ing trades strike, are afraid the men em ployed on the work on the bridges may be called out. As such a thing might result in these two bridges having to be closed down, the Commissioners Intend to use their Influence with the labor leaders and ask them not to interfere with the carpenters at work on the bridge repairs. The Commissioners, as a board, consid ered road matters during the afternoon. J. A. Strowbrldge addressed the board with reference to securing rock with which to Improve the Taylor's ferry road. There has been some talk of obtaining rock from Mr. Strowbrldge's place, situ ated along the line of the road, but Mr. Strowbrldge objected, saying it would destroy a creek. He Informed the Com missioners that by putting a Toad through from the Boone's Ferry road to the Tay lor's Ferry road the county would have access to a hill of the best kind of rock. Mr. Strowbrldge agreed to grant a right i of way across his land. Mr. Wintermantel Informed the Com missioners that there Is rock on his land, near valuable springs, but he did not say f.what be will sell It for. The Commissioners decided to ,vislt the t scene and Btudy over the subject. "Viewers were appointed for the Osborn road, .which is laid out between the Sec lion lime and Powell's Valley roads. Roadmaster Steele recommended that "that part of the St. Helens road which is i within the city limits be repaired at a cost of 5400. and after the work has been idone that the city be asked to take charge (of the road. The Commissioners ordered ;the improvement made. 'WOMAN'S CLUB MUSICALE Programme to Be Given Ty New Euglnnd Conservatory Club.

Two or three previous meetings had been held to consider the same question. "The congregation has been without a pastor for the past four years. Durlns that period the Christian Science congre gation has held Its meetings at the tem ple. It has .not been decided yet whether tlje latter organization will have to give up the church. "It has been decided to give Mr. Bloch an Initial salary of J1TC0 a year. The con gregation consists of 50 members, and to raise sufficient money to defray church expenses each member contributes J2 50 per month. Mr. Bloch visited Spokane two ears ago and conducted eervlce3 during the Summer vacation, but he has not been in the city since then.

Jso provision has been made for a choir aa yet, but it is expected one will J be organized. The temple is still In good condition and will not have to be remod eled." ' if-taGQ, m BACK AFTER 2o YEARS. James L.le, Shipbuilder, Xow of Honolulu, Here, on a- Visit. Mr. and Mrs. James Lyle, with their daughter, Miss Agnes Iovell Lyle, of Honolulu, Hawaii, are guests of their daughter, Mrs. H. H. WInslow, 475 East Everett street. They arrived a few days ago, and .will leave today for San Fran cisco on their way to Norwich, Conn., where they will visit relatives. Mr. Lyle came to Portland about. 25 years ago, and engaged In shipbuilding. He was fore man under John Holland, of the Oregon Steam Navigation Company, working at The Dalles and other points. Before he came to Portland he was engaged In ma rine railway building In South America. He left Portland 21 years ago for Hono lulu, where he went to build a marine rail way. After its completion he was super intendent of the works for a. few years. $fSr$-?x'" " V': James "Gyle. and since then one of the lessees from the Government of Hawaii. Lately, as the senior member of the firm of Sorenson & Lyle he spent some $20,000 In repairs to the marine railway. "My observations in Honolulu," said Mr. Xiyle, "are that the American Gov ernment has been entirely fair In Its treatment of the Hawaiian Islands. Its policy has been such as to encourage In every way the development of the islands. There has "been much progress made In Honolulu, and many handsome buildings have been and are being erected there. The natives are as good a class of peo ple as can be found anywhere, and are making good citizens. I have employed many of them, and they give satisfaction. Many of them, are going into the Navy, for which they seem specially adapted. President Dole, in my judgment, Is the right man In the right place. He Is con servative and cautious. He Is slow to make expenditures before he Is satisfied that they are justified. Of course, there are some who are not pleased with him be cause of his conservative methods, and think that he should spend more money than he does, but he Is generally In the right. I am not acquainted with the poll tics of the islands, and only read the pa pers, but I can say that the Hawaiian Islands are valuable possessions of tlffe United States. The plantations are developing. I should say that we will ship 250,000 tons of sugar this year. At Spreckelsville, a mill has been put In that will grind $00 tons of cane per day. This will give some idea of the sugar output there." Mr. Lijie expressed the opinion that the Philippine Islands, under the humane pol icy of the American Government, such as has been exercised In the Hawaiian Isl ands, will prosper, and will become pro ducers of sugar. He thinks tnat tne United States should retain the Islands. Mr. Lyle was greatly surprised at the growth of Portland, and he declared yes terday that he could find none of the old landmarks, the city had spread out so much. HIS, ELECTION UNANIMOUS All Jewish People o Spokane Want Dr. Bloch for Rabbi. Speaking of the election of Rabbi J. Bloch, formerly of the Temple Beth Israel, to th'e pastorate of the Congregation Emanu-El, it Spokane, the Spokesman Review of that city says: " "Rabbi Bloch, of Portland, was elected pastor of the Jewish Congregation Emanu El at a meeting of the congregation held at the "temple et 10 o'clock yesterday morning. It Is expected Mr. Bloch will arrive in the city in three weeks, and regular services will be Inaugurated at once. ' "At the meeting yesterday Mr. Bloch was chosen by a unanimous vote. There were 30 members of the congregation pres ent, and President Louis Reubens presid ed. They'were considering the advisabil ity of bringing a graduate Tiere from Cln- NEWS OF THE COURTS.

Duntley againart Inman, Poulsen & Co., to recover $5000 on account of the death by accident of her husband, Marcus Duntley, Mrs. Duntley yesterday filed .notice of appeal to the Supreme" Court. The case was won in the lower court by Inman, Poulsen & Co.

It is al leged that the court erred In refusing to allow Witness R. D. Inman to answer the following question: "Now, Mr. Inman, Is It not a fact that there have been .at least two men killed and two or three crippled or injured In your mill In the last four ears by machinery? Is It not a fact that there have been several accidents and casualties In jour mill within the last four years on account of 'defects in ma chinery and construction of machinery?

"There is a rule of law that whenever a thing that causes Injury Is shown to be under the management of a defendant, and the accident is such aa In the ordinary course of things does not happen If those who have the management use proper care, It affords reasonable evidence, in the absence of an explanation by the defend ant, that the accident arose from the want of care. So In the case on trial. If you find that the pulley attached to the plan ing machine was under the management of the defendant, and that the pulley broke, which could not have happened In the ordinary course of thinga if those who had the management and control of that pulley used proper care, then if In i that event there is no explanation on the j part of the defendant as to the breaking I of the pulley, you may conclude that the breaking of the pulley arose from want oz care."

' The recent selection of National banks as depositories for Government funds has caused some discussion as to the expedi ency 'of the .policy" of distributing these funds in a great .number of small outlying banks of small capitalization. It appears that the Secretary of the Treasury- has preferred those banks which have not been retiring circulation, as was done very largely while the Government was buying bonds, with the result,, of course, that the purpose of the Treasury to assist he business interests of the country was to an extent nullified. Secretary Shaw has felt disposed to teach such banks a lesson, and we are inclined tothlnk that he is right in the matter, and that the effect will be good. There is noticed a disposition to criticise Secretary Shavtf as being too much In sym pathy with the ideas of those, as" an East ern paper expresses it, who are disposed to antagonize the "financial Interests" of the country to be able to lay their point of view wholly aside in his dealings with Treasury problems. This simply means that the present "Secretary of the Treasury is not Jn the control of the Eastern bank ers and is able to ..consider the general EDDIING AND VISITING CARDS w. g: smith & co.
