-THE MORNING QKEGONIA2, THURSDAY, FEBRUARY 11. 1904. DIX IN THE HARBOR Transport Comes Up River Without Difficulty. DELAYED BY A SNOW STORM Being Largest Government Transport, She Silences Doubts About Depth of the Columbia ChannelHer Cargo Is Ready. After being held at Jhe mouth of the- "Wlllamette River all night by a blinding snowstorm, the United States Transport Dlx arrived in Portland yesterday morn ing and anchored at Montgomery Dock No. 2. Despite the cold and rain, there was a large crowd of Portland people on the dock to watch the big vessel pull alongside. The Dix made the trip up the Columbia and Willamette without the least diffi culty In the form of shallow water. As she is the largest transport In Uncle am'a service, her successful trip to Port land is a signal victory for Portland. No more can the danger of bringing a large vessel Into the rivers be urged as a reason for not giving Portland a chance to furnish Government supplies. "When two Portland firms made the lowest bids on hay and oats for the Philippines, It was determined that the Dlx should come here and load. The question was raised as to the ability of a boat drawing 24 feet to reach this port. The people of Portland were confident that there was no drawback on that score. Now they have proven it most satisfactorily. The officers of the Dlx speak in highest praise of the channel from hero to the sea, and they assert that there Is no longer any reason why transports should not come here frequently, aad no reason why Portland should not furnish a large por tion of the Government supplies for the Philippines. As the Dlx is the largest transport in the service, there is cer tainly no reason why any other vessel tfkould not come here. The docks and hold of the transport presented busy scenes yesterday after noon. Everything is being gotten into readiness for -loading the cargo of oats. It is expected that this work will com mence today. The ship will probably be here about a week. Rough Voyage Up Coast. Tho vessel is In charge of Captain Theo dore Sternberg, Quartermaster, Captain. The other officers are as follows: . Captain Geo. Ankors, Master; Dr. W. H. Tukey, Surgeon; J. T. McLees, Chief Officer; A. E. Hargreaves Second Officer; Thomas Sands, Third Officer: W. E. Mc Nelly, Fourth Officer; J. J. Murphy, Chief Enlgneer; J. N. Paulson, First As sistant; F. Whitehead, Second Assistant; F. Maleny, Third Assistant; K. Lister, Fourth Assistant; W. H. Smith, Quarter master's Clerk; X.. A. Reinhardt, Com missary Clerk; H. L. Hanlfin, Freight clerk; W. A. Terry, carpenter. The chief petty officers are W. A. Ferry, J. Marks. H. Haskell, E. W. Fluhart. J. V. Cumber, T. Leake. N. McLeod, J. lounger, P. Lyons, R. Sims. The Dlx left Manila on December 22, 1003, and wont to Nagasaki, Japan, where she coaled. Sailing from that place on January 4, she arrived In San Fran cisco January 27. She left the Bay City lost Friday and arrived off the bar at the mouth of the Columbia on Monday even ing. On Tuesday she came across under the guidance of Bar Pilot Captain Woods. At Astoria Captain Patterson went aboard, as pilot and conducted the ship up tho river. Tho weather was rough from San Francisco ur, and this caused some delay. At the mouth of the Wil lamette a severe gale and snowstorm was encountered Tuesday night and tho vessel was compelled to anchor for tho night. i "That little storm was a surprise," said Chief Officer McLees. "Tho snow fell so thick that we couldn't see land, and wo decided that It was best not to attempt to make the rest of the distance before morning. The storm held us until S o'clock this morning. It was cold, too. You can imagine what we felt, coming from Manila, where we were wearing will to duck suits, and striking snow and a temperature of 33 dogrees. It made us scramble around for mittens .and heavy socks. "Tho weather isn't very Inviting, but you have a great place here, and some' of the finest sconory I ever saw. As for a channel, tho Columbia and Willamette are hard to beat. There Is no reason, in the world why transports should not come here frequently. There Is no reason why Portland should not share in the business of furnishing supplies. It was the persistency of your people that brought the Dlx here at this time. They could have loaded all the forage needed at San Francisco, but your representa tives at Washington kept after the De partment until they ordered us here anyhow. That is the only way to get anything go after It and keep after it until you got it." Kind of a Ship She Is. In apperance tho Dlx might be mis taken for an ordinary commercial steam er, were it not for her regulation red. white and blue funnel and the Stars and Stripes which she carries. The' upper deck is painted in white and brown, while the hull is in red and black. The clean liness and order of everything is a char acteristic of the transport that strikes ono the moment he steps aboard. The ves sel is 4C9 feet long, has a beam of 52 feet and a depth of hold of S2 feet. She has a capacity of a little more than 11.000 tons. Yesterday she was drawing 19.9 fott aft and 14.3 feet for'ard. Including officers snjl seamen, she carried S9 men. While here the vessel will take aboard about 4600 tons of oats, the bulk of this being loaded at the Montgomery dock and the remainder at Aibers Bros." dock. A large quantity of coal has to be shifted before the oats can be loaded, and. about CO local men were given employment yes terday doing this work. This force will be Increased to about CO whon the loading commences. Thus, by the loading of the Dix at this port a large number of local men will be given employ meat at 50 cents an hour. When the Dlx completes her stay here, she will return to San Francisco, where she will remain for some time, having her spar deck extended and fitted to carry horses. Two hundred and thirty of these animals are to carried by the vessel to the Philippines. The crew will be Increased about 35 men when this change is made. Yesterday aftornoon the officers of the vessel inspected the cargo jot material to be loaded on the Dlx. They were profuse in their praise of the manner In which Portland dealers pack their shipments. It was declared that the material inspect ed is put up in better and cleaner shape than at any port visited. The contrast with what they found at Seattle, they stated, was great. This praise was not spoken out of flattery, but because it Is Jeserred. LIGHTEST DRAFT BOAT. Sternwheeler That Will Draw Only Twelve Inches. A boat that will carry 350 passengers uid several hundred tons of freight on . ar&xt of 12 inches is to be built for the Oregon City Transportation Company. The contract has been let to the Port-" land Shipbuilding Company, and the work of getting but the timbers has already started. The new boa Is Intended for service on the Upper Willamette and will run throughout the year, regardless of the stage of water. She will not only be the lightest draft boat on the river, but will be one of the most complete. The name of the steamer will be the Oregona. The other boats in this com pany's fleet, in the order In which they were built, are the Latona, Altona, ', Ra mona, Pomona and Leona. The Oregona Is to be 122 feet long, 2 feet beam and 4 feet depth of hold. Her length will be two feet greater than that of the Pomona. The boiler ii being made by the Willamette Boiler Works, and will carry a working pressure of 210 pounds. The machinery will be con structed by Bert Hicks. The upper deck will contain, besides the saloon,- six state-, rooms, galley, pantry, mess room and closets. J. H. Johnson drew up the plans for the boat. "The Oregona will be ready for service June 1," said Captain Graham yesterday. "She will be light enough to operate durr lng the low water season, and will enable us to keep jip a dally service.,, Wcbelieve we have got in her everything possible to make the strongest and lightest boat ever put up here." HEATHER IS COMPLETED. Last of the Finishing Touches Put on the New Lighthouse Tender. The lighthouse tender Heather Is now completed and ready for service on the coast. The carpenters, painters and elec tricians yesterday finished the last of their work on her, and today the tender will drop down from the Hazletlne dock, where she has been lying, to the bunkers to coal up. The Heather wis turned over to the lighthouse board lagt Fall before she was entirely fitted up and after the press of work was over was brought here for the finishing touches. These Included the Installing of electrical machinery, wiring of tho vessel, placing of a steam capstan and other necessary apparatus and building of a charthouse on the upoer deck. As she. now stands, the Heather is the most complete and up-to-date tender in the service. Captain C. G. Calkins, inspector in this district, is now in Alaska on the tender Manzanlta supervising tne placing of buoys and inspecting the lights and .other aids tb navigation In those waters. -He is expected to return to Portland about the 25th of the month. The tender Col umbine Is at Astoria, loaded with sup plies, and will leave for Puget Sound stations today. Beacons Will Mark Cable's Course. ASTORIA, Or..

Red Rock will shift over to tho flouring mills today to begin loading for Europe. ; The schooner Mabel Gale will leave down today bound for San Francisco. She has 850,000 feet of lumber loaded at Inman Poulsen & Co.'s mill. Low water .In the Lewis River Is 'se riously interfering -with steamboat navi gation. The JCamm boats are not able to go above the railroad bridge, which is proving a great inconvenience for the people of La Center. The German bark Nauarchos arrived at Falmouth Tuesday, " after a run of 117 days from tho Columbia, River.

Strongly Recommended as Location for Independent Packing Plant. The two Independent packing plants proposed by the National Livestock As sociation at its recent meeting flr this city bids fair to be erected." At least this Is the information brought by bulletins is sued from the-aseoclatlon's headquarters at Denver. Portland was strongly talked of as one of the places for ejecting' a plant, and. If the plans' of the association are carried out as they promise to be, Portland may have a long-looked-for packing plant. -v , l- The directors of the independent packing company were strongly In favor of erect ing one plant on the Pacific Coast, and the strategical position of Portland with ref erence to the trade of the Orient and the Coast has caused it to bC -looked upon very favorably. The fame of Portland Is being spread broadcast by bulletins Issued from Sec retary C. F. Martin's office calling atten tion to the success, of the recent conven tion and what was accomplished here One of the, main topics of discussion was the improvement of transportation facilities. It is now reported that the railroad companies are giving heed to the action of the association and have mani fested a desire, to meet the committee ap pointed to look after that matter and make such concessions as will be satis factory to both sides. ' Takes Prisoner to Walla Walla. Deputy Sheriff Kees. of "Walla "Walla, was in the city last night. He had in charge P. E. Neely, who is wanted at "Walla "Walla on a charge of seduction. Neely, who left "Walla "Walla soon af ter his trouble, was located In 'Stock ton, CaL, and placed under arrest. They will resume their Journey today. PATRIOTS AT WAR Democrats Have a Hot Fac tion Fight in Prospect, SECTIONS CLAIM CONTROL Right. to Name Tickets for Primaries in Dispute Between Central Com - mittee and Executive Committee-War Threatened. Democratic factions have troubles of their own, and from the looks of things may fight at the primaries like big folks. One faction controls- the executive com-, mittee of tho organization, the other the County Central Committee. Each sus pects the other of scheming for ascen dency over the regular ticket of dele gates. Neither wishes to name the regular ticket itself, of course not. But each has In mind a way of Its own for nam ing the ticket. Both are willing to let the rank and file have all the say, but neither will let the other's rank and file do the saying. That's why razors are in the air in the Democratic camp. The patriots are truly screwed up for slaughter. There would, Indeed, be blood on the moon if that orb could be seen these nights. So terrible Is the outlook that each faction Is likely to put up Its own ticket for the primaries. And it Is probable that both will lay claim to the title "regular." It would make a heart-rending story to tell about the trouble from the very be ginning. Suffice it that each committee claims to be the Lord's anointed. The central committee, beaded by Alex Sweek. insists upon retaining the attributes of authority. The executive committee, headed by L. T. Peery, chairman declares very positively that the law vests It with authority to nominate the regular dele gates. Judge Sweek and his followers have proclaimed that they dominate the county committee and that their committee la vested by law with supreme command. Members of the executive committee re spond that their friends are a majority of the central committee and have authorized them to exercise the functions of that committee and to nominate the delegates. So there you are. It's a most distressing tale of 'toll and trouble. . The central commie is composed of 70 patriots or less; the executive com mittee of the following worthies: L. T. Peery. chairman; James Gleason, C. B. Williams. G. H. Thomas, J. "W. Grussl, II. B. Nicholas, A. J. Bushman, D. M. Donaugh, Newton McCoy, C. P. Halght, J. A. "Vfcndevere, John "Van Zante, H. A. Grafton and J. B. Ryan, secretary. "Suppose," a stalwart, who professes allegiance to the Peery "highbinders," was asked yesterday, "'that the county committee nominates the delegates any how?" "Oh, but It can't." "But suppose- "Then we'd have a fight at the pri maries. But it can't." "Why?" "The law won't allow it." "Why don't you take possession of tho county committee if you've got the power?" "Because we don't wish to put Sweek out that way. If he'll be good we'll mind our own business." "Then you ask the Sweek people to keep off the grass?" "We ask them for no favors." "And no quarter?" - "Not If we get into a fight." "And you think you control the county committee?" "Isn't it pretty good evidence when we're certain that we do?" The foregoing conversation, when re ported to the onemy, provoked a snort of derision. "Hot air," was the reply. "Aren't you afraid of Peery, McCoy, Thomas and Van Zante?" "We'll show 'cm if they get- frisky. They're only highbinders." Just lately the county committee had a meeting. The Peery men were there, too, and watched with all their eyes. Several times it looked as If the rivals mlgh.t throw brickbats at one another, but the Sweek peopld steered clear of troublesome subjects. Somehow or other the antl-Sweek fili busters suspect that gentleman and his workers of scheming to sell Democratic votes In the primaries to Simon. "When ever tho allegation has come to Mr. Sweek's ears he has denied It vehemently. His enemies purpose to make it dangerous for him to aid Simon by fixing things so that they will capture the organization.' should any considerable number of Demo cratic votes be used for Republican schemes. . On Tuesday night the executive commit tee held an Indignation meeting. The members decided to issue a manifesto to tho tollers in the precincts, telling them that they might participate In tho nomi nation of dipt a. tea. The resolution is as. follows: n Ttesolved by the Executive Committee of the Democratic Central Committee, of the County of Multnomah and of the City of Portland, Oregon. That, whereas. It is made the duty of this committee by the provisions of the Primary Election Law to select and flle with the County Clerk, not later than four days before primary day. a Hat of delegates to the coming County and City Democratic Convention, pro posed to be voted for, which list shall be printed by him upan the official primary ballot and be known as "regular ticket;" and "Whereas. "Wo do not care to assume the en tire responsibility of naming such ticket; Therefore. It Is resolved that the Democrats of the various precincts' of the City of Port land be Invited to assist la suggesUng names for that purpose; that the committeeman from each precinct be requested to. call together the Democrats of his precinct, la conference, to help select such candidates and report the same to this committee. It is further resolved, that the chairman and secretary of this committee be directed, forthwith, to send to each of 'the precinct com mitteemen Ji copy of this resolution and re quest them to take charge of the matter and endeavor to get a full and fair representation of the Democrats of their respective perclncts.

Gray matter clouded the atmosphere ot two rooms on the third floor of the City Hall yesterday. Sixty-two teachers In cluding several who want to be teachers did some heavy-weight thinking, and brain fag was In evidence at the end of the day. Examinations for county and state cer tificates were given by the Board of Ex aminers, County Superintendent R. F. Robinson, and Principals TJ. M. Grout and J. T. Gregg. Penmanship, history, spelling, algebra and school law were the subjects of the county examination for yesterday, the opening day of the examination.

Most of the people present had formed the im pression that Madame RlnnvH- Vinrf o strong soprano voice of the kind required ior wagner worK not exactly a dramatic soprano either. Some of them waited ex pecting to hear a succession of vocal pyrotechnics wedded to brilliant soul-stlr-rlng coloratura work. Instead, they heard a pure soprano voice of dainty quality, excelling in all the difficult re quirements of vocalization, and possess ing properties belonging to the larg sing ing Joyously In a sunny sky. The voice Is also like the sound of a flute skilfully played. It is quite different from the Nordlca voice, for in physique the prime donne are dissimilar. Its chief charm is Its clear, sweet, sensuous , quality. It makes one think of a pianissimo. Young singers In ihe audience received a-valuable object lesion In tone production from Madame Blauvelt. Her tone delivery was even and quiet, and had none of the constant tremolo that Is so distressing In too many singers a tremolo that often means a distinct loss In pitch. Madame Bnuvelfs songs were excel lently chosen to show the magnificent beauty of her voice, but for the sake of her audience It is to be regretted that she chose so many songs in Italian, French and German. Eight of her selec tions were in English. The most inter esting were the German Heder. especially the Schumann and Brahms. In the De llbes number the singer possibly sang her best fortissimo, and In the Verdi "Les Vepres Sicnlenne," she gave a most, ar tistic treat in the upper register, reaching C sharp, in altlsslmo. But the note was sung without apparent effort and was taken so easily that it seenjed lower. There was no straining after effect. She sang a great many songs with a beau tifully soft finish. Indeed after hearing Madame Blauvelt sing several numbers, one could calculate to a nicety the kind Of conclusion aimed nt. TTrr was an unalloyed delight in these latter aays wnen so many singers insist that tone is all-powerful, and that mere words don't matter much. From a popular standpoint the two numbers that received the greatest applause were "Roses After Rain" and "My Balrnie." The encores were "'Twas April" (Nevln), "Stolen "Wings" (Willeby), "Ecstacy" (Mrs. Beach) and "Comln Through the Rye." Madame Blauvelt deserves all the nice things a critic can say of her. It Is a genuine pleasure to hear such a typically American singer. Tho recital was under the capable management of MIs3 Lois Steers. AS THEY DO IN SCOTLAND. Lecture on Cooking at Domestic Science School. The lecture and demonstration on Scotch cooking at the Portland School" ot Domestic Science, yesterday after-' noon, was largely attended by tho rep resentative housekeepers of the city. Miss "Wlshart, the new teacher, who gave the lecture, is a Scotswoman her self and thoroughly familiar with her subject. She gave good recipes and mixed toothsome dishes as she talked, showing her audience exactly how the ingredients should be put together, just what kind of an oven the various dishes should be cooked. In, etc.- She was assisted by Mrs. Honeymah, Mrs. Rockey and Mrs. Garson, of the Y. "W. C. A. Mrs. Garson Is" also a native of Scotland, and, while she made a dem onstration ot preparing Scotch oat cakes, she kept up a running comment ary of witty sayings, which kept her hearers convulsed. Tho professional teacher gave all her instructions by strict nJeasurements and weights, but, when this motherly housewife got up to give her household secrets away, her method was entirely different. The old-fashioned way of "taking a pinch of salt and a little bak ing powder and some flour" made the ladles all laugh heartily, but when the oat cakes .which she made were passed around they were voted an en tire success. This is the way she makes them: Take about four cups, finely rolled oatmeal and put in a small pinch of sugar. Add a pinch of soda, which will shorten it. and a piece of butter the size of an egg. "When this is mixed wrth the meal, mix with warm water, making a very stiff dough. Roll out vers thin, cut into cakes and bake in a quick oven until browned. Crumbettes were made by Mrs. Honeyman. and very delicious they proved. The recipe is: Two cups rolled oats, one cup flour, half-cup butter, one cup brown sugar, quarter-cup boiling water, half-teaspoon soda, half-cup chopped raisins, half-cup chopped walnuts. Mix and allow to stand for onehour before bak ing. Then put in tins in small drops. During the lecture it was noted that the Bull Run water has absolutely no lime in It. and mothers were cautioned to give their children food that would supply It. Lime water should be added to babies' milk to harden their teeth, and plenty of oatmeal should be fed, aa it contains a bone-nardenlng qual ity. In some instances the blood Is too warm to admit of a steady diet of oat meal, but it can be dropped for awhile in this case. Miss "Wisharf s recipe for English muffins (or Scotch crumpets) is a JLcood one. To make Tfith yeast, take six cups of flour, three eggs, a piece of butter the size of an egg, two heaping- feaspoons of white sugar, half cake of compressed yeast and one quart of milk. "Warm the milk with the butter In it. let cool a little, then stir In the sugar; add pinch of salt and stir this mixture gradually fhto tho flour. Then add the eggs, well beaten. Dis solve the yeast in half-cup lukewarm water and add to the other ingredients. If the muffins are wanted- for luncheon, mix about 8:30 A. M.; It for breakfast, set at 10 o'clock the night before. "When ready for baking, fill the muffin rings about half full and bake in quick oven. To make these muffins with baking powder Instead of yeast, use one-third cup butter, half-cup sugar, one egg. one cup sweet milk, two cups flour, four teaspoons baking powder, half teaspoon salt. Cream the bdtter and sugar, add the egg, then the flour; pour the milk In around the edge to preserve, the color. Beat the batter until light and bake in a qulck oven. There were also demonstrations In Scotch shortbread and flour scones, which .Interested the pupils very much. The shortbread excited a good deal of curiosity, as It contains only flour, but ter and sugar, the butter and sugar be ing creamed until the flotrrmlxes with it without the aid of a liquid of any kind. The scones are something like fine baking powder biscuits baked on top of the stove. The management ox' this School of Domestic Science feels that it now has an Instructress who is thoroughly cap able In all branches of cookery. Miss "Wlshart Is a graduate of the Govern ment Cooking School of Kensington, England and has had a perfect train ing. She is giving much satisfaction. E0R VISITORS TO THE FAIR.
