Sev eral Inquiries have been made as to "why the programme outlined "Wednesday as to action of the Council in regard to the franchise to be granted the Union aiarket Company was not carried out. The fran chise ordinance was Introduced at the meeting of the Council, and read a first time, and the City Attorney asked that It be laid over for further and final ex amination. This was done with the un derstanding that a special meeting of the Council will be held at 2 P. M. today to read the ordinance a second time, after which It must be published and then at least 20 days rouBt elapse before It can be placed on its final passage. In all 60 days must elapse from the Introduction of the ordinance until its final passage. These provisions are contained In the new charter, and are intended to prevent fran chise ordinances from being rushed through the Council. The Mayor and Council and practically everybody are anxious to have the old Pavilion torn down, and It Is understood that if the franchise ordinance proves satisfactory and passes a second reading today the company will be put In possession of the Market block at once, and they say that if this is done they will begin tearing down the old Pavilion Saturday. Supfert Place for Horses. The as phalt pavement on Third street, opposite the Dekum building, slopes considerably toward the gutter, and is rather unsafe footing for horses when wet. On "Wednes day one of a pair of magnificent truck horses slipped and fell and sprawled and slid about so much in endeavoring to re gain his feet that It was feared he would be ruined. Testerday as a rather lively delivery team was being driven along there the escape pipe of a donkey engine hoisting lumber Into the upper stories of the Dekum began. to blow oft with a great roaring and hissing, which so terrified one of the horses that he wheeled about, throwing himself down, and came very near upsetting the wagon. The poor beast in his efforts to regain his feet and get away from the sound of the engine fell down several times, and must have se verely bruised and sprained himself. It looks as if the pavement at this point is more crowning than an asphalt pave ment ought to be. Desirable Immigrants Come. A party of eight, responsible and respectable farm era and timber men from "Wisconsin, Just the class of people needed In Oregon, ar rived in this city yesterday morning con signed to the care of "Wallis Nash, who has charge of the Oregon office of "William westeriand & Co., land and immigration agents of Chicago. These men are look' lng for farms and timber land and will start up the "Valley under the guidance of Mr. Nash this morning. The country around Albany will be Inspected first, and then the party will probably go further up the valley. They are the first drips of a shower of such people who are coming out from Wisconsin. They will be heart ily welcomed and will be afforded every facility possible for securing the Informa tion they desire in regard to this state. Mat Get a Half-Holidat. Postmaster Bancroft has been asked to give the em ployes connected with the Postoffice a half-holiday on the occasion of Presi dent Roosevelt's -lslt to this city, in or der that they might Join In the proces sion and parade in his honor. Of course, Mr. Bancroft was perfectly willing to grant the men the time asked for, bVt on looking into the matter he found that he had no authority to do so without permission from the department at "Wash ington. The business of handling mall matter is such an Important one to the public that it cannot be interfered with, even for a short time without the proper preliminaries having been gone through. The necessary permission will at once be applied for by Postmaster Bancroft, and will in all probability be granted. Baseball, baseball. Baseball. Baseball Todat, S:S0. Baseball Todat, 3:30.

They are somewhat tired of a "Winter of inactivity, and will be glad to get on the road again. Residents in the neighbor hood where they have been "rooming" are also glad that they are going away, for the elephant has been amusing him self at short intervals by breaking out and raising Cain, and there was always a possibility that the Hons might get out and go on a rampage. The reason the menagerie was brought here for "Winter quarters is that the climate Is mild and it does not take so much fuel to warm drinking water for them. - Spanish "War Veterans to Meet. At the regular) monthly meeting of the coun cil of administration of the Spanish-American "War Veterans, May 6, General C. IT. Gantenbeln, department commander of Oregon, was instructed to call a meet ing of the Spanish-American "War Veter ans of Multnomah County, to be held in the board of officers rooms, in the Mult nomah County Armory, on Friday, May 8. at 8 o'clock P.

Those who have not paid their water rates for the month of May will -do well to attend to this matter today or tomorrow and there by save time and trouble and perhaps ex pense. The number who have called to pay their rates within the past few days has been large, but there are still many who have not paid. Section 27 of the rules and regulations of the City Water woncs reads as follows: "The water rates will be due and payable In advance at the office of the City water Works on tne first day of each month, and If not paid within the first ten days the water win be shut off from the premises, as pro vided In sections 25 and 26. The water rates may be paid in advance for any number of months of each calendar year." The ten "days of grace" allowed consum ers expires Saturday, and those who put off naylnr their rates until aionaay win not only find themselves in a Jam and have to wait perhaps for hours to get up to the clerk's desk to pay, but will be likely to nnd that their water supply baa been shut oft and to have to pay 60 cents to have It turned on again. It will be wise to give attention to this notice and pay your water rate today or tomorrow. To Act on Indian War. Claims.

May Much was expected from "Our New Min ister," a play by Denman Thompson and the late George W. Ryer, who also wrote "The Old Homestead," and It came up to all expectations. An excellent company presented it last night at the Marquam Theater, and the attendance was good. The audience Just roared at the funny sayings of Joseph Conyers, who plays De tective Darius Startle, a thief-catcher, who puts Sherlock Holmes to the blush by his astuteness. "Our New Minister" first saw the light about nine years ago. but its authors concluded to push "The Old Homestead." and the new play was neglected until Joseph Conyers added color to the dialogue and made alterations which have materially helped to make it a success. Wherever It has gone over this country for the past two years It has been met with the very highest appreciation. This season "Our New Minister" was popular In California, and return dates have been arranged for. . Like Its famous parent "Our New Min ister" does not call for the display of costly gowns or elaborate rcenerj. since It tells of homo life and the doings of people In the humble walks of life in Hardscrabble. N. H. There are frequent references to Scripture in the lines and a strong religious sentiment Is apparent One of the chief characters portrayed Is that of Darius Startle, a country detective, dressed in a suit of clothes the worse for wear, with a tuft of hair on his chin like that of a goat and an arsenal of ancient weapons peeping from beneath his coat tails. Mr. Conyers takes this part, and is a natural-born comedian of the first water. He made the theater ring with laughter, and the crowd had Its funniest moment when he emerged from the cellar dressed In the ragged prison suit left by the es caped convict and said, "Daniel in the lion's den wasn't In it with me." John Terris plays the part of the minis ter, Thaddeus Strong, and his part stands out In bold relief by reason of his manll-. ness and sterling honesty. The kernel of the play Is furnished by Charles Sted man, who portrays Lem Ransom, a re formed convict who returns to his home to find that people look askance at a man who haB been in prison for theft Of course, the minister takes Ransom's part and falls in love with the ex-convict's daughter, Nance Ransom (Ethel 'Brooke Ferguson). The latter gives a fine repre sentation of a difficult part John P. Brawn does clever comedy work as "Skee zlcks," and John Barker and Louis Fierce display good ability. Phlla May as the minister's sister Is a sweet-looking maiden, who actually does not have a lover In the play, and who displays a good soprano voice In singing two songs. "Our New Minister" Is as clean, whole some and sweet as a nut It will be the attraction at the Marquam this and to morrow evenings, with a matinee tomor row afternoon. "The Master at Arms Everything Is now in readiness at the Baker Theater for the opening perform ance next Sunday afternoon of "The Master at Arms." The play has never been seen In Port land, it being the exclusive property of Ralph Stuart, for whom It was written by the talented young playwright Myron Lefflngwell. Mr. Stuart has spared no expense to bestow the proper mounting and acces sories, his oVn scenic artist Arta Tich bauer, supplying new and beautiful scenery. Mr. Stuart's personality fits him In a conspicuous manner for the impersona tion of such romantic daring characters as that which forms the central figure ot this play Don Caeaar de Baian and in the part he has scored one of his most pronounced successes. He is ably supported by Helen Mac Gregor, Mary Home, Virginia Brtssao and Margaret Mayo, among the ladies, while Frank Camp, Priestly Morrison, Charles Imsley and Edward Poland have excellent parts and give good accounts of themselves. Shields' Matlnes Popular. Matinee business at Edward Shields' continuous vaudeville at Cordray's con tinues to grow. Full houses mark the evening records, and It Is expected by the management that ladles and children will soon fill the house in the afternpon. At present the audiences at matinees are large and appreciative. The bill this week has been a particularly good one and the singing features are excellent Fowler brothers are among the favor-winners, and it can be said that never has a more capable team of balancing acrobats been seen on a local stage. For scientific work of a marvelous character they have not been excelled. Sam Hood continues to please, and a striking feature of the en tertainment is North, South, and Singing Dog Dixie. The Empire trio Is the curtain-raiser, and gives the audience an Idea of the value of the show that Is to follow. The illustrated songs are pretty entertainers, and the polyscope pictures as a finale are amusement-makers. Sale for McBiran, Hypnotist. To lessen rather than to accentuate the mystery which In the popular mind surrounds hypnotism and its practice Is the constant aim of McEwen, the Scotch hypnotist and magician, who comes to the Marquam Grand next Monday for a week's engagement In his explanations at the opening of the performance, Mc Ewen does his best to-emphasize this fact He makes no effort to Uluslonlze, and for this very reason and the further fact that his Is a most engaging personality, he is Invariably on Intimate terms with his audience from the start But despite his unassuming demeanor, McEwen Is thoroughly a master of his art as is quickly made apparent to all who eee him work. He has a way of doing some most amusing things with his subjects, who are generally selected from his audiences, and everybody is kept in high good humor as a result A feature of the McEwen performances here will be the cornet playing of Newton Smith, one of the foremost band musicians of the day, who was formerly with Sousa's band. The ad vance sale of seats will open this morning at 10 o'clock for the entire week. Ticrr Fatares Xext Week. Mr. Shields promised that .the theater going public would be given continuous vaudeville of a superior character, and he has kept his word this week. From the bill announced for next week, begin ning Sunday afternoon, it is believed that as good an entertainment if not better, is in store for the people. Mr. Shields has signed the Martelles Harry and Emma who win give their clever fancy bicycle riding. They are lately from Keith's, New Tork City. They had Intended com ing to Portland for the purpose of vis iting friends and relatives and it was then that Mr. Shields signed, them for hla cir cuit Among other attractions next week will be "All Alone," the great act done by Raymond Merritt The Allyns, from Howard's Boston Athenlum, in their musical feats are classed as among the best attractions In vaudeville. The Bernard in their Irish comedy sketches, and "Kit" Watson in his fancy dancing and black face work, are other big features of the bill a.ext week. Hanvey and iDoane will be held over in their Illustrated songs, and by request will reader "The Holy, City." x fell nw set of polyscope pictures will be on the programme. A matinee will be given, each day next week, and children under 8 years of age accompanied by an elder person will be admitted free, excepting Sundays. Central Parle The only outdoor vaudeville entertain ment in Portland is located on Grand avenue and Yamhill street. East Port land, and has an excellent bill, headed by the Les Incroyables, grotesque danc ers; Illustrated songs by the Gautiers; a comedy trick cottage act, by the three Rexclnlos; monologue and parodies by Jim Magrath a comedy In one act by Barney Bernard, entitled "Home, Sweet Home." Hatte Oat of Vaudeville Circuit. BUTTE, Mont, May 7? Manager Dick Sutton, of the Broadway Theater, and vice-president of the Northwestern The atrical Association, today announced that Butte would not be included In the proposed vaudeville circuit of the North west Including San Francisco, Los An geles, Portland and Seattle, owing to a -disagreement as to terms. REJOICING AT CONCORD. I Mrs. Eddy's Gift to the New Christian Science Chnxch. CONCORD, N. H., May 6. Through the generous gift of the Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, the Christian Scientists of Concord, N. H., are to have one of the finest church structures In the Granite State. The plans for this edifice were presented at a largely-attended church meeting to night and work will begin on the now structure In the near future. The gift of Mrs. Eddy Includes a desirable lot of land now occupied by Christian Science Hall, In the heart of the city, at the corner of State and School streets, and Is, without doubt one of the finest loca tions In Concord for a church building. In addition to the gift of this choice lot Mrs. Eddy presents to the church a cash donation of 5100.000, making her total present represent the sum of 5120,000. The church will be built of Concord granite, as specified by Mrs. Eddy In her original deed of trust and first an nounced in the Concord Monitor of March 19, 1ES. In response to an inquiry from the editor of that paper, Mrs. Eddy made the following statement: "On January 31, 198, I gave a deed of trust to three individuals which conveyed to them the sum of 5100,000 to be appro priated In building a granite church edi fice for the First Church of Christ, Sci entists, in this city. Very truly, "MARY BAKER EDDY." In the Fall of 1E97 Mrs. Eddy purchased the property opposite the High School adjoining the State Capitol, and after re modeling the mansion into a hall and reading-rooms, at a total outlay of 520,000, she presented Christian Science Hall and grounds to the local members for their use. On February 22, 1S09, First Church of Christ Scientists, was organized, with a membership of 78. The congregation has outgrown its present quarters, and the new church is required to accommodate the increase in membership, which has been remarkable. The church will be built of the same beautiful Concord granite of which the National Library building in Washington Is constructed. The architecture will be Gothic, and in proportion and In outline it will be in keeping with modern Ideas of a church building. It Is Intended that the pews .of the church shall seat 1000. The trustees of the building fund, who will have the oversight of the construc tion of the new edifice, are: Messrs, Fred M. Ladd, Joslah E. Jhvlght and J. Wes ley Plummer. Mr. Francis R. Allen, of Boston, has been employed as architect The present first reader of the church is Rev. Irving C. Tomllnson; second read er. Miss Mary E.Tomllns6n. Tbo meeting tonight sent to the gen erous donor the following letter of appre ciation and gratitude: "Rev. Mary Baker Eddy, Pleasant View, Concord, N. H. Beloved Teacher and Reader: The members of the Concord Church are filled with profound Joy and deep gratitude that your generous gift of 5100,000 is to be used at once to build a beautiful church edifice for your follow ers in the capital city of your native state. We rejoice that tho prosperity of the cause in your home city, where, with out regard to class or creed, you are so highly esteemed, makes necessary the commodious and beautiful church homo you have so freely bestowed. Wo thank you for this renewed evidence of your unselfish love." Since tho congregation has already out grown the accommodations of Christian Science Hall, building operations will be begun at an early date. The citizens of Concord regard Mrs. Eddy's generosity with favor and are greatly pleased that another splendid building is to be added to the handsome edifices of the capital city. PERSONAL MENTION.

As the strike situation seems no nearer an end while the remedy appears to me bo simple, I will suggest It: First Let the employers pay nonunion or free labor more than the union scale and give preference to free labor. It Is worth more. A man that Is Independent and will not be called outy any sympa theUc strike or business agent Is worth more" to his employer than the serf ot the union. faecond Let all employers refuse to handle union-made goods, patronize those that hire free labor.
