There Is some delegate from somewhere attending the Irrigation Convention Vho should have brought his wife with him to take care of him. A letter from him to his wife was picked upon the street yes terday. It began: "Dear Wife: I reached here all right, and have had a good time, but I lost my valise. I attended the meet ing of the association. See The Orego nian." As he lost his valise and his let ter.to his wife, it is evident that he should not go abroad without her. The letter was addressed to a distant part of the state, and had not been inclosed in an en velope, but the identity of the writer cannot be revealed, as it would make his wife feel sorry to have him exposed. In future an effort will be made to hold meetings of the Irrigation Association hero when lawn-sprinkling Is in order and the employes of the water committee are kept on the jump to prevent citizens from turning the city's whole water supply loose on their grounds and the streets in front. Repairs "to Axder-Street "Wharf. The extensive repairs to the wharvesfat the foot of Alder street, owned by H. W. Cor bett and the Macleay estate, are begin ning to approach completion, and will be a great Improvement to the .property. A new slip haseen built, new roadways to the upper wharves put in, and the de cayed upper ends of the piles under.the lower wharves sawed off and stout.beams or caps laid on the tops of the piles to support the floors. Nothing in the way of permanent improvement has been done to these wharves since the great flood, and they were in need of the thorough over hauling they are now receiving, which will last for some time. A few days ago the river was rising so fast that the workmen began to fear that it would come over the lower wharf and drive them off, but the rain stopped In time to prevent this. On Wrong Game Preserve. The spe cial Deputy Sheriff secured by hunting clubs who shoot along Columbia Slough to protect their peserves from poachers is an energetic man, who attends strictly to business. He found a man at large on pne of the shooting grounds a day or two ago and captured him, took his gun from him, and marched him down to F. Beals' place to turn him over for execution or such fate as might await him. The pris oner had been invited to shoot on a pre serve, but had innocently strayed on the wrong place, and felt that ho had got Into "bad sledding." Fortunately for him, Mr. Beal knew him, and so he was al lowed to go at large, and is not likely to go astray on the wrong shooting ground again.

Looking Forward to Duck Feasts.. The inmates of various Homes and charit able institutions have heard of the annual donation of game which they are likely to receive soon, and are looking forward with much pleasure to feasting on wild ducks. Ducks have been so plentiful this season that nearly everybody has feasted on them, but they have not been seen at charitable institutions yet. It is to be hoped that the weather may prove favor able for duck-hunting the latter part of the week, so that the hunters may kill plenty to furnish a good treat for the in mates of the institutions. .

Officer Nash Discovers Fire. As Special Officer Nash was patrolling his baat last night, about 9 o'clock, he no ticed smoke coming out of E. B. Madden's printing offlce, First and Alder streets, and he broke iiua door and sent a telephone message for a chemical flro engine. In the meantime he exercised excellent judgment in pouring water over the flames, until the firemen arrived, probably preventing what might have been a serious fire. As It was, the loss was slight. Pet Holly Tree Is Stolen. A small holly tree disappeared from the premises of L. A. Shaw, 5S0 East Davis street, late ly, and Mr. and Mrs. Shaw are very anx ious to secure its return. The tree was the pride of their little daughter, who died a short time ago, and, a3 she had always tended it and considered it her own, it has seemed to be a tie between her and her parents, who greatly deplore Its loss, and would gladly pay a reward for its return.

The business of an expressman is evidently healthy? for some people at least, as among the expressmen of Portland can be found probably the heaviest man" Iri the i city and one of the oldest The former Is J. W. Fleming, who has been in the express business for many years, and ap pears to have grown stouter year by year, till he now weighs 303 pounds, and looks as plump and rosy as a well-fed country boy. Fleming was formerly driver of an ox-team, and is familiarly known among his old acquaintances as "Multitude" from the number of yokes of oxen he used to drive. He attributes his stoutness to a habit he acquired some time ago of using one, to half a dozen glasses of beer to wash his lunch down. He has quit this no.w, and diets a little, but his weight grows no less. The other expressman mentioned is J. W- Painter, -svho is S4 years old, and has Deen in the business some 20 years. He Is as lean as Fleming is the opposite, and weighs little over a third as much, but he gets out every day and attends to his business. It was rath er a dreary, cheerless morning yesterdav for so old and frail a, man to turn out especially as there was not much doing: but he says he has to get out and stir around to limber up. Gathering Statistics on Phkasants. Game Warden . Quimby was going the rounds of the commission houses yester day with a record-book under his arm. Inquiring how many Mongolian pheasants had been received by each of the commis sion men, whence they came, and to whom they were sold. The lav requires commission men to furnish the Game Warden with this Information, which he says will give him a pretty accurate ac count of the number of pheasants mar keted during the season, as verv few hunters ship direct to the market men. Mr. Quimby says that not nearly so many pheasants have been arriving as he had expected, probably owing to the stormy weather, but if the weather clears up the hunters will be out in force. But little uiea can be formed of the number of pheasants received at the markets by the numbers seen exposed for sale, as the birds are coming and going all the time. There Is a lively .demand for them, and all that can be obtained can be sold. Thomas Cat Is Beter's Chum. Some years ago there was a dog In this city which was infatuated with the police uni form, and would at any time follow any one wearing it Now there Is a big, black Thomas cat connected with a Front-street business house which, whenever Police man J. H. Beyer comes along In the pa trol of his beat, follows tym off and stays with him the remainder of the night If Beyer has occasion to go into a saloon, the cat follows him and makes himself at home. He asks plainly for, something off the lunch-counter, and busies himself with a piece of bologna or whatever is given him until Beyer leaves, when he hastily wipes his paws, on his tongue and follows. The cat has iever shown any desire to follow any other policeman except Beyer, and Drobablv the lunohps hp iAts in sa loons have something to do with his at- tacnment. Chance for Roosevelt to TTtt.t. tseabh. Among the many millions of Americans wno ieei sorry oecause .President Roose velt could not get a chance to kill any bears on his late hunting trip is John Brigham, of this city, who owns a large ranch m Tillamook, on the Nestucea River. Mr. Brigham says, if President Roosevelt will come out here, he will en gage to take him to Tillamook, and with in two days to And six bears for him to shoot; and he wishes tho President to look unon this as an Informal InvltnHnn There will be no mistake ahoiit tho hnrK Mr. Brigham says, for his ranch and the wooas an around are just full of them. He has known three to be killed at a time there. This is a kind and ranprniiq nfrr on the part of Mr. Brigham. but perhaps it may be overdone, as the President might not care to risk tho lives of his "suite" In a place where there are so many bears. Reuben Wolf, -a Paroled Prtsovpth Reuben Wolf, the vouth who Is rhnrirorJ with stealing clothing from several stores, proves to De an.mmate of the State Re form School, at Salem, who has been out on parole for 14 months. Superintendent H. E. Bickers, of that institution, came down rrom Salem yesterday to attend to the case. He savs that Wolf wss ssnt nn from Umatilla County 3 years ago, be- naved himself well at school, and has been out on parole for the past 14 months. It will remain with the court to decide whether he shall be returned to the Re- rorm bchool. Wolf and his companion, Edward Jackson, and Fred A. Mullin, who Is accused of stealing meerschaum pipes, were each held to await the action of the grand jury by Municinal Jurist TTnrmo Their ball was fixed at $1000 each. Robbers Scared Off Wrrn Little Plunder. Robbers forced their way into Caswell & Kelly's saloon, Seventh and Morrison streets, early yesterday morning, and got safely away with about $6 in small change, after smashing furniture, etc., to the value of $20. They attacked a rear door, which leads lntn . running into Seventh street and the noise iney muuo awoite a uninese janitor, who notified his employer, and the latter tele phoned to the police station. In tho in terval that elapsed, however. Policeman Gassett came along, but the robbers had caught the alarm first, and had made their escape. Then the patrol wagon dashed up, ready for action. A search of thevpla.ee revealed that the robbers tried to loot the nlckel-ln-the-slot machine, but were scared off. Captain Bannan in From the Beach. Captain Bannan, for many years con nected with the Portland police force, but who, on account of failing health, took up his residence at Long Beach some 12 or 15 years, ago, Is In the city on a vacation. He has been greatly benefited by his life by the sounding sea and the allowance of crabs, clams, etc., which he mixes with his diet, and is looking about as robust and sturdy as a man of his age can ex pect He still feeds a large herd of clams every Winter, but they rapidly disappear in the early Summer, when the city peo ple begin to arrive at the beach. The vis itors also absorb a large percentage of the ozone in the air, so he thinks it no more than right to lock his cottage for a spell jn the Winter and come to town for a change. News Sought of W. B, Hurst. City Treasurer Werleln received a lotfor fmm J. F. Henderson, of Aleda, 111., yesterday, asKing ior mtormation as to the where abouts of W. R".

Hurst docs not appear In the directory of 1S93. or in that of the year prccedingor following, and nothing Is known of him In this city. An Interesting Window.

A., working at a bench, and with a dis play of articles made in the school. Mothers and fathers having boys seemed .especially interested; at times the side walk was almost blocked.

Miss Pearl Sanford Beasle Blossom (everybody's frfend). Miss Vernlce White It would take a'JPhlladelphia lawyer to' point out the weak points, in "Alphonse ana Lraston," a musical melange that was presented on the Marquam stage last night But somewhere there is a fatal de fect, an error, a fault, a dereliction, a lack in the tacking together of this viva c!6us mechanical mixture. The plot Is a filmy nothing, a bubble, of fleeting fancy, a vanishing color In a fad ing rainbow. Were It now a sine qua non. this matter of a plot, a hasty ob server might opine that this precious es sence had been dissipated by the heat of the dialogue. But, of course, it's there It is unquestionably true that about the samo characters are on the stage at the end of the last act that were there when the curtain rose on the beginning of the first But why they should be, or through what dire vicissitudes they passed to reach their apotheosis is a dark, undeter mined mystery. Still, they were there, and must be accounted for. During the aforesaid period between the first and the last many strange phenom ena took place. There were songs, pres tldlgitatlons, acrobatic marvels, dances and dire . portents. Throughout Gaston and Alphonse conducted themselves with propriety and decorum. They said their little lines and bowed their little, bows, made their jokes and threw their fits with Gallic grace. Sometimes when there was nothing to do behind the scenes, some beauteous maidens came out and danced and chirruped sweet ditties and displayed unexceptionable gowns. Candor compels the admission that the chorus girls were pretty well trained, and, if their vocalic talents had equaled their willingness, there would have been music. But let a veil be thrown over the latter. We may cull from the graves of the departed a flower for memory's sake, but to dig up, carry off and flaunt well, It seems too bad. COMING ATTRACTIONS. "Belle of Ne-nr Yorlc" Tonight. Tonight at the Marquam Grand Theater the over welcome musical comedy. The Belle of New York," will begin an engage ment of three nights with' a special mat inee Saturday at 2:15 o'clock.

Included In this com pany are Miss Floye Redledge, or the Salvation Army Lolse, Mr. James Darling, who will again be seen in his splendid character creation of Kenneth Mugg. Mr. Joe NatuB, so long with the Hoyt farces and a man with a grand voice, will be seen as Bllnky Bill.

Heme's beautiful play "Hearts of Oak," which comes to the Marquam Grand Theater next Monday and Tuesday nights, November 24 and 23. v Thanksgiving: Week nt Cordrny's. -The beautiful scenery and massive me chanical effects used in the elaborate scenic production v of Joseph .Arthur's drama "Lost Biver" are conceded to be the most costly and elaborate ever given a production of this kind. Besides this outlay the play has a multiplicity of effects from a camera to a heavy toll gate which stretches across the West Baden toll-road. Down this road three thoroughbred horses and tnelr riders dash at full epeed during one of the thrilling situations with which the play abounds. Thirty actors and actresses,- besides a large staff of mechanics, a quartet and a country orchestra, a drove of sheep and other livestock are used .to make this story of Indiana life the financial arTQ artistic succees It has proved itself to be during its six months' run in New York. "Lost River" will be tho attraction at Cordray's for one entire week starting Sunday matinee, Nov. 23. In addition to the Saturday matinee, there will be a special Thanksgiving day matinee; S. R. O. nt tlte Bnker. "Why do you hang that sign out every night? I have noticed it the last two or three nights, on my way home. Is It a bluff?" This question was asked of George L. Baker last evening by a friend who hap pened to meet Mr. Baker in front of his theater. "Do you mean that 'standing-room only sign?" "Step inside and see If you think it's a bluff," replied Mr. Baker, "with a happy smile on his face. The friend did step in. and he saw the sign was justified. "A Contented Woman," Hbyt's greatest com edy, is presented by one of the best stock companies ever seen on the Pacific Coast, namely, the Neill Stock Company. Judging from the advance sale for the remainder of the week, the "standing room only" sign will be hung out every night y "A Gold Mine." On next Sunday afternoon, at the Baker Theater, the Nelll Stock Company will present, for the first time in Portland for years, that excellent comedy, by Henry Guy Carleton, In which Nat C Goodwin made his first" and greatest success, "A Gold Mine," in three acts. This play will be the bill at the Baker Theater all of next week, including a special matineo on Thanksgiving day, Thursday, November 27. The play Is one of exceptional merit and a comedy of the highest order, giving the members of the Nelll Stock Company an unlimited scope In which to display the splendid ability of its members. The Scene of "A Gold Mine" i3 laid In Eng land, and tells of the comical experi ences of a resident of the State of Cali fornia while visiting the empire across the pond. Silas K. Woolcott, of California, is the part in which Mr. Goodwin made his first great hit, and the role in the hands of Mr. Charles Wyngate will not go beg ging and will be played Tvlth all the artis-' tic finish of a meritorious actor. Ml3s Countjss will sustain her enviable reputa tion as an accomplished actress In the character of the Hon. Mrs. Meredith, the sister of Sir Everard Foxwood. She will give the part all the attention of the true artist, and success will crown her ef lorts. There is a great demand for seats for every performance next week, and what new, scheme" Maikger Baker will invent to make comfortable the immense crowds which will attend the Thanksgiving per formances it Is hard to conceive. 'But that they will be carefully provided for there Is no doubt, for Mr. Baker has the splen did faculty of always contributing to the comfort of his patrons. RESCUED FROM STORMS. liifesnvine: Crew Does Good Service in Alaska Outlook at Nome. J. F. Slnnott deputy Collector of Cus toms for Alaska, and a well-known young man of this city, Is home for a month's visit Mr. Slnnott was first appointed by ex-Collector J. W. Ivey, and when the latter'Sj office was taken In charge by Lieutenant Jarvis, the new Collector at once reappointed Mr. Sinnott as deputy, in recognition of ability and service. Mr. Slnnott came down from Nome on the last trip of the Roanoke. "It was a constant storm since October 8, at Nome," he sold yesterday. 'The Ohio had to re main 17 days before she could complete the discharge of her cargo and take on her passengers. . The Garonne, Kimball and Roanoke were unable to land all their freight on account of the weather, and also because of the lack of lightersso many of the latter having gone In the recent storms. "Our llfesaving apparatus has done some good work this Fall. Lieutenant H.' G. Hamlet and his boat crew, who were landed from the reveune cutter Bear to take charge o'f the llfesaving outfit, rescued many people off barges, and in the case of two schooners that came ashore, flred a line over each and got the crews off. without loss." Lieutenant Hamlet, referred to by Mr. Slnnott, Is the executive officer of the Bear, and is one of the most popular and efficient officers in the revenue cutter service. He has had long experience in the stormy waters of the North, and is well known to many a stranded whaler and prospector. Mr. Sinnott and Dr. Call, who jointly attended to Collectorship affairs under Lieutenant Jarvis at Nome, kept a record of arrivals and departures from that port. This shows that 3700 people landed 'at Nome from the States during the past year, and 4500 have come away to the States. It is estimated from these figures that about 25C0 people will Winter at Nomo and vicinity this year. Mr. Sln nott says that the production of gold at Nome will "be. very muoh greater next season than ever .before, because of the Increased facilities afforded by the build ing of so many flumes and long ditches. He' 111 return to Southeastern Alaska In about one month. . THANKSGIVING SPECIAL. Grent Saving in Reliable Footwear.
