It Is complained by a clerk in a public office that agents for the sate of lottery tickets invade the room -where he and others are at work, and openly offer their -wares lor sale, and It Is asked why, when so much Is being said about gambling and gam-bllngr-houses, some means are not taken to stop the selling of lottery tickets. The law forbids the use of the malls for trans mission of lottery tickets or the corre spondence or circulars of lotteries, but It is not known that there Is any law In this titate to prevent agent from selling such tickets. There are at least three such agents In the business here, openly, and known to many, and they represent three or four lotteries, and even distribute cir culars In regard to tho prizes won on 25 cent Investments in the tickets they selL The agents, it is said, make good wages selling lottery tickets, and there is one boy of 14 In the business. If there is any law against selling such tickets here, those who do not approve of the practice should take steps to have the agents punished, instead of complaining1 about them. If people did not buy the tickets the agents would not long remain in the business. That Ix)no-Iited Market. The work of demolishing the old Mechanics Pavil ion shack, which ceased with the removal of the windows, has not been resumed, but. as usual, is to be started in a day or two. The market company which is to build a city market there has had trouble in finding a responsible person who is de sirous of clearing off the block for the material In the old building. Many want ed to take away a part of it, but few cared to undertake the removal of the whole. There is a large amount of lum ber in the building, and, while the lean-to sheds on each side are ready to fall at a touch, the framework of the central por tion Is sound, and the timbers arc fastened firmly together by long bolts, which will have to be unscrewed. It is said that there is a ton of these bolts In the structure. The company has now several bids of the kind it desires for clearing the block, and Is confident that the work of demolition will be begun "in a day or two." "When the Telephone Is a Nuisance. A resident of the extreme northeast sec tion of the city has found the telephone a great convenience on many occasions. "When, at 4:30 o'clock yesterday morning. he was aroused from a sound sleep by the telephone, to be informed that a friend who went down to Astoria to help get the regatta started had just arrived home on the Potter and wantc-d him to come down town and have a drink, he was inclined to consider It a nuisance. He realized as soon as he was fully awake that the friend and not the telephone was to blame. and telephoned back that his horse was lame, and he could not come down town till the cars started, and then he took' a drink out of his llttlo brown jug and went back to bed. When the telephone is lm proved so that a drink as well as a mes sage can be sent over it. there will be no more complaints about it. New Variett of Potato. A new varle ty of potato, known as the "American "Wonder," is appearing In tho market quite plentifully this season. It was originated at Damascus, Claclcamas County, some three years ago, and so closely resembles the Burbank that It requires an expert to distinguish between them, but is said to be superior to that old favorite. It Is al leged that It produces more to the acre and that the potatoes are better for cook lng. being more mealy, but those who have used the Burbanks for years are not likely to pay 10 cents a sack more for 'he "Wonder" until Its superiority has been fully proven. Patches of three to Ave acres of the Wonder have been raised by many farmers this year. Orbcon's Beautt Draws Artists. Sec retary Max M. Shlllock. of the Board of Trade. Is in communication with Miss L. A. Mint. National director of the National Liberal Art and Science Leagues, with present headquarters in Ogden, Utah. Miss Mint is in search of a favorable location for an art school, and Secretary Shlllock has so thoroughly described the opportu nities offered lovers of art by the beauty and grandeur of the Columbia Rivpr scen ery that the artist will very likely bring hc-r students to this part of the country for a term of a month or more. Camp houses are brought, and the students en Joy camp life while studying and portray ing nature in all her beauty. Use op Raffia Increases. The sight of a bale of raffia being shipped to Tacoma jesterday appeared to indicate that the raffia craze has not died out. The dealer paid that Instead of dying out. the uscof raffia was all tho time increasing. The most of It is, of course, used in the nat ural color, but the colored, used for strip ing and making figures on baskets, mats, etc, is now obtainable in all the colors of the rainbow and some others. If the use of raffia becomes general, the Forestry Department of the Island of Madagascar will soon be troubled about the extinction of the palm which produces it. To Welcozie returning Veterans Returning veterans of the G. A. R. from San Francisco, on their homeward jour ney, will probably arrive In Portland next Tuesday. The local posts of the city are preparing to give them a warm reception upon their arrival. The Board of Trade has kindly given the use of its room for headquarters of tho G. A. R., where every body will receive i cordial welcome. An adjourned meeting of the committee on reception will be held tomorrow afternoon at 3 o'clock, at the office of J. W.

Y will depart over the O. R. & N. on Sunday evening: "W. P. Lyman, B. E. Flsk, Fred R. Blngley and Frank Stewart. Every effort will be made by the delegation to bring the next National convention, to be held in 1905, to this city. The delegation will be assisted in its work by the Chamber of Commerce, that body having taken favorable action at a recent meeting. , Patino Gold Mines in Portland. a resident of Marquam's Hill say that there is a gold mine In Sweney's quarry at the base of the hill at the head of Sixth street, as he Is taking out and crushing large quantities of rock which yields him 53 a ton in gold as material for macadam izing streets. There is also a good mine in G. W. Bates' brickyard on the East Side, as he gets about $S a ton in gold for all the bricks he turns out. Onion Crop Will Be Good. The onion crop of this region bids fair to be good this year. An expert who has been in specting the Tualatin and Sherwood- dis tricts estimates their output at 43,000 sacks. This cannot be considered a ban ner crop, as a Clackamas County grower who will produce 3S0O sacks this year says he has seen Tualatin and Sherwood turn cut 60.0M sacks, but that was an excessive crop.

Malarkey. one of the most prom inent young lawyers of Portland, is at St. Vincent's Hospital In a critical condi tion. Mr. Malarkey was taken suddenly sick at his office Thursday morning and a physician being called, was at once re moved to the hopsltal and his wife sum moned from Seaside. An operation for appendicitis was per formed upon Mr. Malarkey some time ago, and It is thought that the intestinal com plications which have now caused his ill ness come as the effects of the operation. Drs. K. A. J. Mackenzie, Andrew C. Smith and George F. Wilson held a consultation on the case yesterday. At midnight he was resting easily and apparently no worse than when received at the hospital.

The Eagles have fought their last bat tle in Portland. That is the declaration the local birds have been making since the joyful tidings were received of the return of their charter. Last night the . newly elected officers were Installed, and j for the first time in many moons there appeared to be room In the nest for the birds, although it Is rumored -that out of the large number suspended only Fred T. Merrill, W. T. Hume. M. C. Senosky, Lou Wagner and W. A. Hart were al lowed to crowd Into the nest last night. A large number, it is said, appeared at the entrance to the hall and asked to be taken back into the fold, but were refused admittance. From present Indications there will be no more trouble unless the ex-members, refused admittance last night, continue the wrangle. Even this will not be likely to mar the harmony of the local aerie, as last night's action was the will of Grand Worthy President Del Carey Smith, whose order is almost final with the siibordlnate aeries. Following are the newly elected officers Installed last night: John Lamont, past : president "and grand representative to the grand aerie; Colonel S. C. Spencer, worthy president; John V. Lamkln. worthy vice-president; William Deveney, worthy chaplain: Louis Damroasch, worthy secretary; Fred T. Merrill, worthy treasurer; Slg Wertheimer, worthy con ductor: J. R. Penney. worthy Inside guard; Vicior Chapman, worthy outer J guard; W. T. Hume, Alex Sweek and J. P. FInley. worthy trustees; Doctors H. R. Llttlefield and C. W. Cornallus, worthy physicians.

The forthcoming local engagement of the well-remembered Pollard's LUIputlan Opera Company, which takes place at the Marquam Grand Theater next Monday night, continuing for four nights, with a j popular maunee xnursaay, in "xne .Bene i of New York." promises a season of In- j nocent fun for the young people of all 1 ages la this city. The company now numbers CO diminutive artists, and is new- j ly costumed throughout. " It Is natural to j suppose, therefore, that last year's flat- j tering success will be more than dupll- J cated now. All of the old favorites re- main in the cast, which includes Daphne, I Connie, Alice, Ivy, Jack and Fred Pollard, Willie Thomas, May Topping, Irene Goulding. Nellie MacNamara, Ethel Ben- netto. Florrie Sharpe, Irene FInley and a large and new chorus, all of the big girls of the former cast having been weeded out. There will be seen a new comedian.
