D. Brastow. superintendent of the Western Division, both of San Francisco, have been spending a few days in the city looking after business of the com pany. Among other things which they have had to take under consideration Is what kind of a building Wells, Fargo & Co. shall build this year on their property at the corner of Fourth and Yamhill. Eu gene Shelby has been anxious to have the company erect a hotel building there with the lower story fitted for the accommo dation of their business. Several propo sitions have been received from persons who wish a mercantile building there and offer to lease the upper stories. Just what ideas Messrs. Christenson and Brastow have on the subject or what they will report is not known. It would be well for anyone who would like to have a hotel In tliis central portion to make a move in the matter as, if any reliable proposi tions were submitted for leasing a hotel building, it might Influence the report to be made. JCow Is the time for those who want a hotel there to makeron effort to secure it, as the character of the build ing to be erected will probably be decided upon soon. To Celebrate Their Success. Tho close of the first year's work of the South Portland Improvement Association will be celebrated this evening by the election of officers for the new year. The exact an niversary of the founding of the organi zation occurred at the meeting two weeks ago, but as the attendance was poor at that meeting it was decided to postpone the election until more members were present. The association feels that It has been very successful thus far In se curing improvements so much needed by that portion of the city. One of Its main objects has already been granted, that of a better representation of South Portland upon the executive committee. The ap pointment of Joseph Weber and William Flfedner upon this committee made the members of the association feel that they had accomplished something by their per sistence. Fills Instead of Roadways. The large amount expended by the city of late in re pairing bridges and elevated roadways is likely to lead to some of these struc tures being replaced by fills. There Is an elevated roadway on Seventeenth street between Northrup and Pettygrove streets -which Is in a bad stage of decay. To re pair it would be foolish, as in the highest place it Is not more than three feet above the ground, and for some distance Is so low that a man cannot crawl under it to inspect the decayed stringers. It would have been much better if the fill had been made at first, but the rebuilding of the roadway at this time is not worth consid ering. There is a similar place on East Washington street, where 100 feet of slightly elevated roadway is likely to be replaced by a fill. The sooner such places are filled the better for all concerned. EpjdiJmic of Railroad Wrecks. "These railroad catastrophes are dreadful and are becoming altogether too com mon," remarked an old-time citizen as he looked over The Oregonian yesterday. "They are happening all over the coun try." he continued. "Probably the bad winter weather has something to do with them," suggested a friend. "No, that is not the trouble. Our people want to travel unreasonably fast these'days. They ought to cross the plains with an ox team as I did, and be six months on the road. Then they wouia find that there is no use in being in such a hurry going through the world, and getting out of it. It doesn't matter how fast they go, time files faster, and the end comes soon enough. It is too bad that so many have to be sacrificed to this desire for traveling fast" Connot Fill the Hole. The late shower has washed away a somewhat extensive fill at the corner of Kelly and Abernethy streets. This would not be a matter of much importance but for the fact that the fill has been washed away and re filled four times already this Winter, and If this sort of thing keeps recurring at this rate it will take all the loose earth in that section to refill the gap. There has lor some -time been a suspicion that a mistake was made when the grade of Kelly street was fixed at this point sev eral years ago. It was Intended to make Kelly street the principal driveway from the White House road into the city, but it is going to be a difficult job to carry out this Intention. No Pat When Lights are Out. With the laudable intention of taking time by the forelock, the collector of the Portland General Electric Company and Deputy City Engineer Shannon, were hard at work yesterday examining and comparing a voluminous pile of reports to ascertain how much the company must be mulcted on account of street lamps having been out during January. The amount: was larger than for many months past, -which will please those who were left in the lark while on their way to dinner. Every lamp 'which is out at night is reported, and in stormy weather the number is often large, but during January it was larger than usual. Fire Chief is Remembered. Fire Chief Campbell has received a" highly colored Illustrated postal card sent from Rome by Ralph Hoyt, who is supposed to be touring Europe. It represents a fireman carrying a rather robust woman down a ladder from a burning building:, a sort of gymnastic exercise the chief deserted from some time ago. Mr. Hoyt should send paintings by the old masters from Rome and not postal cards. Men's Resort. At the Men's Resort, C6 North. Sixth street, the usual Saturday night entertainment will consist of a lec ture upon "Love. Courtship and Mar riage," by Rev. J. F. Ghormly. A short musical programme will precede the lec ture.

Balte3 & Co.t linotypers, printer. J Seek Information at City Hall. As the first of February is at hand, and bills without number must then be pre sented to the city. Auditor Devlin and his deputies were very busy yesterday ex plaining to anxious Inquirers the various changes made by the new charter In the forms for making out bills or presenting claims tQ the city. In attending to these numerous callers, Mr. Devlin has searched through the new charter so often that he is likely to have it by heart before long. Such changes are a good thing once In a while, but it is a good thing thnt they do not occur often. There is more desire for Information In regard to the Civil Service Commission than any other subject In order to please those who have positions and want to hold them, and those who haven't positions and want to get them, this matter has to be gone over hundreds of times. Some members of the Fire Department are anxious to know what kind of a civil service examination they will be expected to go through. They imagine that the only examination likely to benefit that department much is a physical one, as no amount of study will ennble them to swallow smoke without being choked. The department, it must be remembered, is only partially a paid one. The extra men work at various trades till the bell rings, and then become firemen tempo rarily. In this connection it may be stated that the fire bell is not rung to call out the department, as most people imag ine; this Is done by the gong in each en gine house. The bell Is rung only to let the extra men know that there Is a fire and where it Is. Mount Scott Improvements. Exten slvo building improvements are in prog ress along the line of the Mount Scott railway. George Brown is putting up four neat 51300 cottages, with more in prospect, and Messrs. Ladd, Hoguc and Gammons are building seven houses on the Firland tract owned by them. They are also laying water mains, building sidewalks and aiming to make Firland one of the finest additions to the city. A very neat station is being built on a three cornered park of the tract cut off by a curve In the road. It has ample plat forms, two largo waiting-rooms, and three living-rooms for the keeper, who will be maintained there to keep the place in order. The park contains a number of magnificant fir trees, a part of ,the prime val forest, and is beautifully laid out with graveled walks, and the right of way of the road is also graveled. Cannot Write Good English. A busi ness man who has had difficulty in secur ing an office boy to suit him, says that in the public schools not enough atten tion is paid to writing, reading or arithmetic. He has tried a number of boys about ready to go Into the High School, and finds very few who can either write or read as well as he thinks they should, when about to leave the lower grade. He thinks their time is divided among too many things. He has no objection to a little drawing or a little music, nor to gymnastics, and arithmetic is very necessary, but things which are chlefiy required of office boys, and which will best assist them In securing situa tions which many boys desire, are writ ing and reading, and he would like to have more attention paid to these branches, os he has found many boys unreasonably deficient in them. Tell Where the Plunder Is. Frank Miller and Frank Ward, two of the thieves connected with the robbery from the O. R. & N. Co.'s cars several weeks ago, yesterday revealed their cache to De tectives Kerrigan and Snow. Forty boxes of cigars, two shotguns, several pairs of shoes, valuable cloaks and other articles were recovered. The cache Is near Bonne ville, and the snow is very deep there. The thieves assured the detectives that they would be able to find a much larger cache as soon as the snow went off. Miller and Ward were arrested a short time after the robbery was committed. They were confined in the City Jail, but made their escape through the municipal court room. They were arrested again at North Yakima and brought back a few days ago. Pictures Will Soon Go East. This evening at the Commercial Club, in the eighth floor of the Chamber of Commerce building, the lantern slide views taken along the road of the O. R. & N. Co. in Oregon and Washington will be exhibited so that Portland people will have an op portunity to see them before they are sent East to the Harrlman bureau, where they will be used to advertise the North west The Board of Trade, the Chamber of Commerce, tho Manufacturers' Associa tion and the Commercial Club have ar ranged tho entertainment which promises to be well attended. Red Ink Was Appropriate. City En gineer Elliott was engaged for some time yesterday in wading through a large number of communications in regard to new sidewalks needed. One of the vriters drew a vivid picture of his having thrown down and nearly killed a friend by slip ping on a loose plank which flew up. He gave a synopsis of some remarks made on the occasion written In red Ink. Mr. Elliott at once saw the great necessity for spiking down that loose plank and thus checking a flow of profanity which he could not even think of without shud dering.

"It is easy to sing the praises of Pos tum Food Coffee; In fact I should be most ungrateful did I not," says Mrs. R. B. Wright, the wife of the minister of the First Congregational Church of Boise, Idaho. "Five years ago I was a nervous wreck and yet hard to convince that coffee was injurious. Postum was recommended by a friend and found to be delicious and strengthening. In a short time my nerv ousness left me and today I am well and hearty without a moment's sickness. "My husband has been relieved of bil iousness by its use and our eldest daugh ter, who was a delicate child, has won derfully improved in health. She has gained in flesh and is stronger than ever before in her life, -while I scarcely know I have any nerves. The whole family, children and all, prefer Postum to coffee. "How sorry I feel when I hear any one say: 'I don't like Postum.' I know they have not properly prepared it and havo frequently suggested another trial four teaspoonfuls of Postum to a pint of water, which must boil at least 15 minutes after boiling commences, have cups warm and serve very hot with good cream this is a cup fit for a king. "I know many who have been bene fited from its use; nervousness, dyspepsia, with countless other ills, vanish when Postum becomes the family breakfast drink and coffee Is left out "At our table recently, a clergyman was asked if he would not have his cup re filled. He replied, 'I never allow myself but one cup of coffe,' and when Informed that ho had been drinking Postum, he exclaimed, 'Indeed, I will have another cup," surprised and gratified that he had been outwitted. This was considered a good joke by the younger members of tho family." AT THE THEATERS 'Carmen." Don Jose Joseph Fredericks Escamlllo Achllle Albertl Zuncga James Stevens Don Cairo M. Goodman Rcmandado Merl Manning IJIchaele Helene Noldl t Frasjulta Pauline Johnson I Mercedes Elolse Bishop I Carmen Rose Cecilia Shay It looked as If fate conspired last night to prevent the Gordon-Shay Grand Opera Company from appearing In this city and singing Bizet's opera "Carmen." Owing to a washout and other mishaps along the Astoria &. Columbia River Railroad, be tween thiri city and Astoria, the singers did not get here in time, and the curtatn did not rise for tho first act until 10:30 o'clock. The opera finished this morning about 1:30 o'clock. An attentive audience waited until the end. Considering the fact that the members of the opera trouD had not tasted any food, except a cup of coffee and a sand wich since 7 o'clock yesterday morning, and suffered from personal inconvenience on tho train, they gave a really excellent rendition of "Carmen." The opera was written by Alexander Cesar Leopold Bizet, who wan born In Paris, October 25, 1S3S, and died June 3. 1S75. His fame rests chiefly on two operas, "L'Arleslenne," and "Carmen." It has a somber libretto drawn by Mel lh a e and Halevy from a tale by Merlmee. the opera being first produced at Paris. March 3, 1S75. The music is warm, seductive, voluptuous, alluring, pathetic. There is very little humor In it Laet night, it was a genuine pleasure to hear it well sung in English, after hearing various renderings of it In Italian In this city, on several occasions, when It was not possible for tho multitude to understand one word of what was said. Rcee Cecilia Shay, mezzo-soprano, made a splendid Carmen, both In voice and figure. She is one of the prettiest and most heartlessly coquettish Carmona we have had In Portland. It was a matter of Indifference to her. whether she smoked a cigarette, or accepted the love of Done Jose, tho Sergeant of dragoons, or Escamlllol, tho toreador. It depend ed on the whim of tho moment She was equally at home with the cigarette makers when first, unasked, she makes love to Don Jose, or with the Gypsy folk with whom she belonged by blood ties. Don Jose was excellently played by Joseph Fredericks, tenor, and he divided honors with Achllle Albertl, baritone, the toreador. Helene Noldl. soprano, made a charming, delightful Michaele. the Inno cent spiritual peasant maid. Many of the costumes are very pretty, and the scenery well deslsned. This afternoon "II Trovatore" will be presented, and In the evening a double bill of "I' Pagllacci" and "Cavallerla Rust lcana." "Charley's Aunt" nt the Bnfcer. An audience that filled every, seat In the Baker Theater last night witnessed a first class performance of the funniest of all comedies, "Charley's Aunt" The Baker stock company, has added many new ad mirers to its already long list The entire company Is of a high class, and Portland theater-goers are justly proud of them. There will be a matinee today of "Char ley's Aunt," and tonight will close one of the most successful weeks. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Frank Daniels Next "Week. This morning at 10 o'clock the advance sale of scats will be placed on sale for Frank Daniels, who comes to the Mar quam Grand Theater next Monday, Tues day and Wednesday nights, February 2. 3, 4 "Miss Simplicity," the new R. A. Bar net musical comedy in which KIrke La Shelle Is- presenting Frank Daniels this year, is described as a distinct departure from any of the former Daniels offerings, The new piece Is a thoroughly modern, up-to-date composition as to its story and environments; the atmosphere Is that of the Paris of today, and the costumes are for the most part picturesque variations of the very latest and most swagger Parisian styles. In his new role of "Blossoms," Daniels, instead of appear ing as a crusty old monarch of by-gone days, or as a mythical personage with supernatural and strictly comic-opera powers, is nothing more antique than a trolley-car conductor, and his first stage exploit has to do with that newest de velopment of modern invention, the auto mobile. Later he becomes the valet to a London swell of the period, who is slated for the kingship of a Zenda-llke king dom, and still later "Blossoms" becomes the substitute ruler himself. Of course, throughout these changing conditions, "Blossoms' " life is a burden of large and overpowering trouble, and equally of course all this trouble Is the material with which Frank Daniels makes his audiences laugh. Attraction for Next Week. All next week, starting with the usual matinee tomorrow, DcMillc and Belasco's powerful play. "Men and Women," will be given an excellent production at the Baker Theater. No play of recent years has met with such' universal success as "Men and Women." It Is- of the same class as "Charity Ball," "The Wife" and others of the Belasco klnn. David Belasco is a playwright and manager of National reputation, and his name Is well known to all regular theater patrons. He has often remarked that "The Charity Ball," "The Wife" and "Men and Women" wero three plays that ho most admired of all his work. Carlyle Moore, under whose direction all plays are presented at the Baker Theater, is untiring In his efforts to make this pro duction one to be long remembered In Portland.
