THE BAKER THEATER Baker stock com pany In "Arabian Nights." SHIELDS PARK Tonleht Summer vaudeville, 8 P. M. Special Officer Castvtx.1, at "Wonic Since the high water Invaded many cel lars along the city front, business men have been allowed to pile boxes, etc., on the sidewalks in large quantities. Special Officer A. Caswell has been busy looking after the disposal of garbage, the grates on one side of the crematory having been broken out by throwing dead horses on them, and much of the dry garbage hav ing, therefore, to be burned on the dump. The new grates have arrived, and the crematory is in order again, and Caswell is now turning his attention to his special duty of looking after streets and side walks. He was yesterday attending to having shade trees trimmed where this Is needed, and making note of places where the grass has been allowed to grow too long between the edges of sidewalks and the curb and lot line. The ordinance requiring grass in such places to be cut will bo strictly enforced, and where black berry vines, fern, eta, have been allowed to grow on the front of lots so as Jo encroach on the sidewalks, the owners will be required to put them properly in order. Officer Caswell will report to Mayor "Williams every morning, and will be on duty every day. Now that the water is going down, property-owners will be required to disinfect cellars which have been flooded as soon as the water leaves them, a very proper precaution, as many of them are emitting very bad odors already. Boxes, etc., removed from cellars and now obstructing sidewalks will have to be put out of the way as soon as possible. Officer Caswell will also keep an eye open for the persons who are beginning to tack advertisements on elec tric poles along the streets, in violation of the city ordinances, and will see that such advertisements are removed, and those who put them up fined. Not Anxiocs to Work ok Bridges. A contractor who wanted a lot of men for bridge work up-country called on an em ployment agent yesterday to see what the chances were for getting them. He was told that uiere were pleitfy of men about town wanting work, and that common laborers were paid $2.25 per day. The greater number of them wanted to go Into the country; but if asked to do bridge work, the first thing they would ask was where they would be boarded. and what kind of a Toom they would' be furnished with. The contractor said he was building bridges along a mountain stream at points a mile or two or three miles apart. His men had to live in camps, and move occasionally, as he had not been able to build hotels with ele vators in them at every bridge site. The agent said he could send out any number of men, but they would be dropping off at all sorts of places, and some would want to go to work In grain fields; and it was not likely that more than half of those sent would ever reach camp. Many men are shipped from Portland to Cali fornia and Nevada to work on railroads. They get very low rates, $1 to $3, and when they have gone as far as they want to, they get off, and not half of them ever reach the railroad they were sent to work on. The only way an agent or em ployer can keep any hold on such fellows Is to get hold of their baggage and send It on ahead. No Place for Inebriates. Two per sons who have been under the weather of late, as their friends Imagine, from look ing too oftn on the wine when it was red, and the whisky when it gives Its color in the glass, were yesterday plan ning to go to a celebrated hot springs. A friend, who had "been there," both as to the malady and these particular springs. advised them to patronize some other re sort. He acknowledged that the water at the springs in question were beneficial. but said the objection to the place was that there was no way of getting to or from the baths, except through a bar room. "There is always a dice box on the counter." said he, "and you know that you could never pass it without throwing for the drinks." This may be a pointer to proprietors of springs to put their barrooms ana dice boxes in less prominent places.

Extraordinary preparations have been made for the annual camp meeting under the auspices of the Oregon Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church, at Can by. It will begin July 5 and close July 12.

The gates will be free this year, and Rev. C. T. McPherson, pastor of the M. E. Church at Canby. and the people of that town will do all In their power to m.-ke the stay of visitors on the camp ground as agreeable as possible. Scattered a Shower of Milk. A rec ord-breaking wagon-smashing and milk- distributing runaway came oft in South Pbrtland yesterday morning. A team at tached to one of the milk wagons belong ing to Ludi & Anderett was standing at the intersection of Hamilton avenue and Corbett street, justt where the "S" cars of the City & Suburban Railway Com pany end their trip, while the driver was serving a customer. A car came up and stopped, and the conductor was swinging the trolley around, when one of the horses took fright at the action, and they started off full speed down Corbett street. Instead of turning up the Slaven road. they managed to get on the trestle of the car line to Fulton, which Is about 50 feet high and curved. They went across this on a clean run and escaped unhurt. When they were across they concluded to go down to the old Terwllllger place. In get ting off the railway track, they twisted one wheel off the wagon, and, after run ning a short distance, straddled a cedar tree; that Is, one went on each side of it. and left no place for the wagon to go. When it came in contact with the tree, it went all to pieces, and a shower of milk cans and milk was rained all around. The horses came through all right, but there was not much of the wagon left. Gates on Steel Bridge Worthless. The old wooden gates on the steel bridge have been in use for a dozen years or more, and are no longer In condition to bar the passage of people. They are also too short, owing to the sidewalks on the bridge having been widened, so that a space of two feet on each side is left through which people are constantly crowding when the gates are shut. There is a vast iiumber of foot passengers and teams thronging the bridge between 5 and 7 P. M., and many will push through the ramshackly old gates, despite the ef forts of the tenders. The superintendent is kept In a constant -state of worry on this account, and some day an accident will happen and some one will be hurt on account of crowding past these gates. He is hoping that new gates, long enough to shut out all travel, will soon be sup plied. The bridge has been very carefully managed of late, and If there wfere proper gates supplied, the chances of accident from opening and closing the draw would be reduced to a minimum. Why Savier Street Is Muddy. The rather muddy condition of Savier street at present is explained by the fact that the so-called "Improvement" of that thor oughfare was nothing in reality but a "dress-up" Job. which was commenced last Fall, and has been worked on at In tervals during the Winter, and is not completed yet. In front of some lots not over four cubic yards of crushed rock was put on, which could not make a very sub stantial surface, but much of the material l6r the present mud was scattered- from wagons hauling earth. The railway tracks are so low that It was Impossible to put any crown on the street, and It lays very flat, which is favorable for mud accumulating. The surface will be put to rights by filling all holes worn In it before the street is finally accepted, and then It will look quite respectable. Chinese Refuses to Act as Nurse. An elderly woman. In charge of a white baby in a go-cart, engaged in an alterca tion with the proprietor of a- Chinese store on Second street, with a flock of Chinese children around, attracted a crowd yesterday. It was supposed that the Chinaman had been endeavoring to secure the white child to add to his flock, or something of the sort. On investiga tion, it was found that the nurse in charge of the baby was acquainted with the Chinaman and his family, and was trying to get them ifi take in and attend to the child, while she went to the Court house to attend to some business. The Chinaman was endeavoring to shirk the responsibility, being afraid that the baby would squall and kick up too much trou ble around his place, and ho finally car ried his point, Letter-Carriers Enjoy Holiday. The letter-carriers were around as usual yesterday, but looking a little fagged aft er their holiday and excursion to the coast Sunday. The excursion was well patronized, some 1750 people crowding the cars till there was standing room only, and nearly 300 being left at the station. The day was spent in bathing, strolling up and down the beach, and the train started on the return trip at 4 P. M. The letter-carriers arrived here at 9:15, and they at once went to the postofflce and worked till midnight; getting mall ready for delivery In the morning. This ac counted tor their rather tired look yes terday. They greatly enjoyed their holi day, and say they do not expect another one for a year, as they know they could not get one If they wanted It. Travelers Get Soaked. Parties who went out on the mountain the last' of the week found the weather not suitable for traveling or fishing. Two men and their wives, who went down to Clatsop County to examine timber claims they were to file on. were in the woods from Friday to Sunday, and it rained all the time. They say they could not tell whether ihe walk ing was best on the old muddy logging roads or on the wet brush, but they were never thoroughly soaked before. George Tuttle and a friend started out Friday to fish in the Little Sandy. They were gone till Sunday evening, and it rained most of the time. They got to the top of the Devil's Backbone and saw the canyon of the Little Sandy, but they never wet a line, and so -caught no fish. But they were well soaked. Repairs on Morrison Street. The pavement on Morrison street, from Front to Third, is at last to be put in order. The City & Suburban Railway Company has found enough heavy-grooved rails to relay the track on the north side of that section of street, and yesterday morning put on a large force of men to tear up the old rails and lay the new ones. The track on the south side of the street is not used, as the cars go around the loop on Yamhill street, so that track is solid. and an asphalt pavement laid up against it will staJM.' The railway company will i lay a stoneblock pavement between the rails, and .some day, when there Is a new bridge at Morrison street, which will not have a divided approach, the cars will probably run up and down Morrison as of old. Five New Carriers Appointed. Post master Bancroft has received formal au thorization to add five new carriers to his force July 1. William L. Starkweather will be connected with Station A, Albina. ? P. A. Manclet, E. W. Hall, E. G. Watson and John Goode will be connected with the main office, two having routes on the West Side and the other two on the East Side. These five men will ease up the sit uation somewhat, but thoy are only about one-fourth as many as the service re quires at this time. Postmaster Bancroft is in hop that he will be allowed more carriers October 1. Strange Death of a Sailor. Portland doctors are at a loss to account for the death of Michael Carroll, a bailor, al St. Vincent's Hospital yesterday. He was taken to the hospital apparently but slightly Injured by a fall on the steamer lone, but rapidly grew worse, and passed away yesterday without any apparent cause of death. Carroll was about 40 years of age, "and a strongly-built man. He had been troubled for some years with a nervous disease, but it had not rendered him unfit for work. He was in the habit of drinking to excess, and on June 23 lost his balance on board the vessel, and. In falling struck his head a hard blow. His scalp seemed bruised and slightly cut, but as far as could be determined, no bones were broken, and he was not rendered unconscious. He seemed dazed, however, and was taken to St. "Vincent's Hospital. From the time he was picked up his con dition became worse. After he had been Li the hospital for a short time, he be came unconscious. Every known means was resorted to to restore him to con sciousness, but he continually grew weaker, dying yesterday morning. Little Is known of the man's family. He said that he had a brother in Everett, but thus far the hospital authorities have not been able to locate him. He came to Oregon from St. Louis 23 years ago. Oregon Information Bureau. In the rooms of the Oregon Information Bureau, in the Union Depot (second floor), is a representative exhibit of , the resources of Oregon. Persons interested in the settle ment and development of the state may avail themselves of the opportunity of seeing this display. They will find It both pleasant and profitable to visit the rooms. Those having a few moments to spare, awaiting the arrival or departure of trains, can employ the time advan tageously by calling at the rooms and providing themselves with literature, which they can mail to their friends out side the state, whom they desire to see located here. New additions are being added from time to time to the already varied display, which consists of fruits, grains, grasses, cereals, minerals, manu factured products and a number of woods. Information and literature are furnished free. Sham Battle Committee Tonight. A meeting of the sham battle committee has been called for this evening In the Commercial Club, at 8 o'clock.

At the meeting tonight the final programme for the sham battle to be given on July 4, at Irvington Park, will be drawn up, and all subcommittees are requested to be prepared with reports as to expense and other details. Fones' Case Is Postponed. The case of Patrolman A. C Fones, who was sus pended from duty pending the action of the police committee, will be acted upon today. A meeting of the committee was called for yesterday afternoon to consider the case, but as-officer Fones did not ap pear for trial, his hearing had to be post poned. He will be represented by C. M. Idleman, and Jack Cavanaugh, of the City Attorney's Office, will handle the case for the city. Fones Is charged with having been implicated with J. R. Wat kins, nightwatchman for P. Johnson & Co., in the robbery of the Johnson build ing. The members of the committee say that his case will be investigated thor oughly, and that they will know the en tire facts. Mazama, a Record of Mountaineer ing In the Pacific Northwest is Just out of the press. It is richly Illustrated with 50 views of the pinnacles and glaciers of the Cascade Mountains. .Many of the scenes show methods of modern scientific mountaineering as employed by the Ma zamas in their annual excursions. Ar ticles by men of international reputation, yet so simple as to be understood by every school boy, explain some of the marvels and mysteries of our mountain wilds. The bright and humorous side of camp life also finds a place. The editor is Gertrude Metcalfe. The publishing committee com prises Mark O'Neill, F. A. Routledge, I. I Hawkins and A. J. Capron. Not Anxious to Go to the Philip pines. None of the Oregon teachers ap parently wish to go to the Philippines, for the examination set for yesterday was a frost of the coldest type. No teachers who have tired of Portland have pre sented themselves at the office of Z. A. Leigh, the secretary of the examining board for such Federal positions, so no examination was held. To teach in the higher grades in the schools In the Phil ippines a knowledge of Spanish is neces sary. In the lower grades no more train ing is required than in this state. The salaries range from $900 to $1500 a year. May Fill Woods' Gulch. In anticipa tion of demands for a fill or fills on Woods-street gulch. City Engineer Elliott is having surveys made at several points where there are bridges, and will have estimates of the cost prepared. The gulch is not wide, but there are a number of old bridges on it It is difficult to esti mate the cost of a fill In such a place, as it depends upon the facility for procuring the earth to make the fill, and in case it is necessary to put in a plant especially for this purpose, the outlay will be con siderable. Drowned Man Was Fred Foster. The name of the man who was accidentally drowned from the steamer Dalles City on the Columbia River, below Blngen, was Fred Foster. His family lives on the Tualatin River. 34 miles below HUlsboro. He went to work on the steamer at Hood River about three weeks ago. Grange Will Picnic on the Fourth.

Bioscope. "When I came home the other morn ing, the cuckoo sounded three times." "What did you oT' "I gave nine other cuckoos to square myself with my wife," said Clark to his partner, "Raymond, at the Empire Theater last nlsht The large audience gave the expected applause.. Clark also remarked that when his mother-in-law was dying he gave her $1, so that the old lady would have money to burn. The act was very amusing. Token all In all the high-class vaudeville bill given at the Empire last night was the strongest, best and most entertaining given so far at that popular place of amusement It had also an Interesting local flavor, from the fact that a Portland singer. Miss Brooke Eltrym, made .her debut and won instant favor. She is a pretty girl, and she has a good voice. When she first stepped on the boards, she received a cordial welcome. "The Great White Throne" was the first number she gave, and when she sang the last note there was a shower of applause, and also handsome bouquets awaiting her. Her en core was a pretty ballad, and her second encore the familiar. loved Scotch song, "Annie Laurie." Arthur Hahn, the Aus tralian basso, is worthy of the great repu tation that has preceded him. Hl3 voice Is a wonderful one In depth, timbre, and beauty, and It electrified the audience. His enunciation Is fine, and this was especially noticed in his first song. "TheN Turnkey," and he went down the scale until people wondered when he was going to stop. He got two deafening encores and responded with "Asleep in the Deep" and the cele brated "Yeoman's Wedding Song." He has one of the best bass voices ever heard in this city. Budd brothers, clowns, in their amusing acrobatic and boxing work, are top-liners. Their tumbling and high-kicking acts are clever, and they nearly brought down the house with their burlesque boxing. After indulging in "fake" punches, numerous uppercuts and lightning rushes, they af fectionately kissed each other at parting. Coleman and Mexis gave exhibitions of wonderful shooting, using real bullets. Bothof them shot marks off each other's heads, but the climax came when Cole man made bullseyes off targets placed around his partner's head and body. Both are exceptionally clever in shooting at marks with the aid of mirrors. Wells Brothers made a hit with "Go Away and Let Me Sleep." One of the duo was In the audience, and he snored when his partner on the stage began to sing. An indignant usher walked down the aisle and removed the snorer, who began to sing the same song. James Dunn gave clever Imitations of various animals, and he sang two enjoyable songs, one In his natural voice and the other in falsetto. Andrews and Thompson made good in their singing act and the bioscope showed new pictures. The orchestra under the direction of John Saltenrelch played ex cellently. Shields' Parle Popular. There Is a popular place out at Thir teenth and Washington streets called Shields' Park. It is popular because there are amusement features of the highest order going on nightly. It is a theater in the open with all the comforts of tho best-regulated playhouse In the country. Since Sunday the Park has been filled at each performance. Sunday night was a record-breaker, and last night was an other. Persons who know what good vaudeville is say that no better or more capable artists have appeared In Port land. What more attractive act can be desired than 'that of Hugh Emmett, the ventriloquist, ask the people. Then there are the Polomas In operatic duos. Stand ing at the top of the list comes the Ath-lon-WIlson-Clark Company, of Chicago, in their comedy "What Happened to Brown." Hooley and Kelton In first-class Irish comedy and Rooney and Forrester in character work and John J. Welch In his especial monologue skits and danc ing. The Dagmars are among the best acrobats in the country, and their barrel Jumping feats have never been equalled In Portland. Brlllinnt Comedy at the Baiter. The presentation of "Arabian Nights" at the Baker Theater this week by the Baker Stock Company Is most attractive. In this brilliant comedy tho Baker company, al ways strong in comedy work, promises to excel Itself. The play Is cleverly written, the situations are original and the acting: Is above criticism. The parts allotted to two of the younger members of the com pany, Lillian Rhoades and Howard Russell, give ample opportunity to display their talents, and the chance Is not neglected. During the progress of the play Miss Rhoades sings two songs, one of them being Anna Held's latest success. "The Maiden With the Dreamy Eyes." George Alison Is extremely funny as Arthur Hum. mlngton. a wealthy young married man with whom a pretty circus girl is Infatu ated. His efforts to explain to his mother-in-law how this lively young performer happens to be in his bouse are very mirth provoking and call, forth shrieks of merri ment from the house. . Sale for X. C.
