THE BAKER THEATER Evening. Ralph Stuart and company In "Monte Cristo." Oregon Otbters for the President. Eastern people visiting the Northwest are surprised to see the oysters produced here from the tiny seed oysters brought from the East. The latest to look Into this matter Is J. H. "Wilson, of Newbury port, Mass., an oyster cultivator, who was in the city yesterday. He has been investigating the oyster business on this coast with a view of engaging in the cul tivation of household oysters here, and was in San Francisco while President Roosevelt was there. While discussing business with the oyster dealers there he was astonished to learn that 7000 oysters lor the banquet given the President at the Palace Hotel in that city had been procured from Portland. He saw them mentioned in the menu as Toke Point oysters, and hunted up some of this kind at an oyster house, and was astonished at their quality, and on his arrival here inquired where the beds on which they were raised were situated and then pro ceeded to visit them. He was astonished at the growth made by the seed oysters planted in three years, and also at the fatness and excellent flavor of the bi valves. He Inquired what had caused the rapid growth and fine flavor and was told that the eqpable temperature of the water on this coast was favorable to the growth of oysters, and thit the fresh water from streams flowing into the bay where the oyster-beds are situated im proved their flavor. -He says he has con cluded that there is a great future to the oyster business in this section, and be lieves that before many years oysters will be shipped from Portland to the East, and he seriously contemplates stocking extensive beds on this coast. He said that the oyster dealers in San, Francisco appeared quite put out about the oysters for the President's banquet having been procured from Oregon, and were not in clined to give him much information about them. Mr. Wilson left for Puget Sound last night to look over the oyster beds there. Smith Objects to Seiko Hanged. The scaffold on which A. L-. Belding, the murderer of three people, was hanged. Is still standing In the Courthouse yard, waiting to eid the career of the colored murderer Smith. The boarding around it has shrunken till a lean person can almost crawl through the cracks in it, and It has become an eyesore. As the execution of Smith is to be the last public execution in Multnomah County, the public is slightly anxious to have the matter, painful though it may be to Smith, over with and the scaffold removed. Few under stand the cause of the long and prolonged delay In this matter, but all understand that legal proceedings have had some thing to do with It. The strike, however, has more to do with the delay than the law at present. Smith has objected, it is said, to being hanged on that particular scaffold on the ground that it is an unfair one, ho having been told that It was built by "scabs." This is not ,the case, but the objection will probably put off his execution until the strike is over. - Salmon Again Plentiful. It has been so long since the advance guard of the great school of salmon for this season came into the Columbia and was suc cessfully exterminated, and no more hav ing appeared since, fishermen were be ginning to feel nervous over the pros pects for the season's fishing. "Last Sun day the Salmon began to come in and Sunday night quite large takes were made along the river as far up as Cath lamet, some seines capturing a ton. It is supposed that the head of the school had been waiting for the arrival of Pres ident Roosevelt to the end that some of the leaders' might be caught In order that he might be enabled to feast on the larg est and finest of fresh-caught Chinook salmon during his visit here. Fishermen are in hopes that tho fish will not fall back when the President goes away, as they are weary of catching shad alone, as these fish arc now so plentiful that many are being thrown away. Foot Crushed ur Elevatok. Mrs. Jennio White was injured by an elevator In tho Marquam building, on Monday afternoon, her left foot being crushed. Mrs. White, accompanied by her daughter, Mrs. Bert Blair, was in the act of xmter lng the elevator when the accident oc curred. Tho elevator was a trifle above a level with the floor and as Mrs. White entered tho door the elevator boy low ered tho cage, catching Mrs. White's foot between the bottom of the cage and the floor and lacerating it most painfully. Mrs. White was taken to a physician's office, where the wound was properly dressed. Tho X-ray failed, to reveal any broken bones, and it is hoped that am putation will not bo necessary. Mrs. White was later removed to the North" Pacific Sanitarium. Baseball Today, 3:30. Baseball Todat, 3:30. Baseball Today, 3:30.

Watson, of the Perkins Hotel, yesterday, "and heard about the crime and its causes. Marcum had been warned last September to leave Breathitt County and he went, but he returned, thinking the affair had blown over. He no sooner did so than he was killed, and the as sassins tried to kill the only witness of the murder, for they make it a practice to kill the witnesses of their crimes. The murder was committed by one of the Cockerell faction and is said to be about the 35th growing out of the feud. The other faction, of which I forget the name, has grown very weak, most of its mem bers having moved to Oklahoma. Mar cum's wife soaked a handkerchief In her husband's blood and said she would keep It to remind her sons to avenge the mur der when they grew up. There Is no prospect of the murders being stopped, for the Governor cannot send the militia unless the County Judge or Sheriff call for them, and they are Interested In one of the factions, so they will not do so. "I went to look after some oil prop erty I have in that district, for the feud country Is in the heart of the new oil region. I have two wells within a mile of the scene, but am not pumping them now, because the pipe line has not been extended there yet. I have hopes that it will soon be extended, for there are wells pumping all the way from two to 50 barrels a day, and the Standard OH Company pays a fair price for the oil. The pipe line now extends from Parkers burg, W. Va., through Eastern Tennes see. "I have also been down to the Beau mont district In Texas, and found that the district is being constantly extended. Since last September the price of fuel oil has been raised from 17 to 75 cents a barrel, as the Standard has been trying to get it to a point where it will not pay to use it as fuel and Is putting up a large refinery at Beaumont This is because the supply of illuminating oil is not equal" to the demand. The present price of Texas oil is just about equal to the cost of coal as fuel, for a " ton of coal Is estimated to be equal to 4 barrels of oil, and many people in New Orleans are giving up the use of oil. The Southern Pacific Railroad Is not likely to do so, for it owns oil wells and is not therefore affected by the market price moreover, it has equipped all Its locomo tives to burn oil and does not care to change them again."

Jameson, marshal of the Oddfellows' division in the Presidential parade, has Issued tho following state ment: "The Oddfellows of Oregon have an op portunity, in the conjunction of two events, President Roosevelt's visit and the 4Sth annual session of the Grand Lodge of Independent Order of Oddfellows of Oregon, in Portland, to show to the un initiated an indication of the strength and caliber of the order. While Oddfellows are not included in the class aggressively en gaged in a strife for membership, yet no man can be a true Oddfellow unless he Is a good citizen. It is, therefore, their duty to honor the Chief Magistrate of our Nation to the best of their ability.

This play proved so popular' during Mr. Stuart's first starring engagement at this theater last year that It has been deemed expedient to reproduce It now. The hero, Tom Hewin, a young sol dier, is admirably suited to Mr. Stuart's well-known talents, and the supporting parts are equally Important for this is not strictly speaking, a star play.

RAILROAD MAN DENIES IT Sir Thomas ShaHshneasy on Stand in Land-Grant Scandal. VICTORIA, B. C., May 19. Sir Thomas Shaughnessy gave evidence before the leg islative committee Investigating the con ditions surrounding the cancellation of the land grants in South Kootenay this after noon. He denied that a binding agreement was made between himself and the gov ernment In 1838, as was alleged in the pre amble -of bill 87 of last session. The Ca nadian Paciflc Railroad was not aware that the disputed lands had ever been proposed to be included In British Colum bia Southern grant Under cross-examination he declared that the lands, if granted, would have been handled by the land department of the Canadian Paciflc "in the ordinary course of business." A subsidiary com pany might have been formed, but as a fact no such company had been contem plated or proposed. Ho was emphatic, that Wells had agreed to hand over the grants in SO days, and that he had per mitted Wells to take them back to Brit ish Columbia tor political purposes. Pressed upon this point, he said Wells said his purpose was to say, if questioned, that the land was not alienated from the HEALTH BOARD AFTER THEM. Railroads Mnat Improve Sanitary Conditions of Cars. LOUISVILLE, May 19. A call has been Issued for a special meeting of the State Board of Health Friday afternoon. The sole purpose is to take steps looking toward improved health facilities on coaches and Pullman cars operated in Kentucky. The investigation recently conducted by the Health Board bids fair to take material form In the shape of stringent requirements affecting every passenger coach, Pullman or otherwise, that traverses the state. It is said by health authorities that there is no worse conductor of disease than the passenger coach unless special care Is taken for the welfare of the patrons of roads. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES.
