This , work has been considerably delayed by the fact that many of the groups were badly damaged In shipment from Eastern points. M. P. Nielsen, a California sculptor who has come to Portland to make this city his home, has been .engaged to restore the statues. He has a large studio fitted up In the Agricultural Palace, where all of the damaged statuary has been placed. It Is Mr. Nielsen's task to obliterate all evi dences of cracks or breaks. ' He commenced work yesterday on the Neptune group, which is, perhaps, the moot attractive' of all the groups that are to be set up. The God of the Waters Is shown rising from the ocean in his seashell chariot propelled by seahorses ridden by water cuplda. This work, .which Is executed In duplicate,, will be placed at the boat landing on" the Bridge of Nations In Guild's Lake. It will be set in the water in a 'manner' to give the figures the effect of rising from the depths. The figure of Neptune reaches to a height of 12 feet. The group Is well conceived and executed. on Eleventh street, right of line resting on Washington street; formation of fours. Fourth Division. Herman Schade and aids W. O.

APBIL FISHING WILL BE GOOD Hungry Trout Will Be fn Danger After Saturday. April fishing will bo good this year. These late March rains have swelled, the meadow streams bo .that the trout axe running thick into their smallest tribu taries, and when the turbid water is suc ceeded by the slightly discolored but clearer high water which follows, the salmon-egg hook will make a big catch. The fish run in and out of the smaller streams with the freshets, and excellent sport for those who do not mind the salmon roe bait, can be had almost within the city limits. On one day the streamlet will be full, the next empty. The fisherman has to be there on the right day. In the larger meadow streams, such as Johnson Creek, on the East Side, and Rock Creek, in Washington County, there is not much fishing until the fre3het is well ovpr. but this Is not the time of year for fishing in streams of even moder ate size. Next Saturday, April 1, will be the schoolboy's great chance, to flsb. For with a broken switch from a stream side willow and a hook on a chalk-line tied to the end, he can go out and catch as many trout as the fellow with the latest appliances. These big, fat, but hungry trout, which dive up the little streams for food, will take anything that comes their way, and generally selre a great gob of salmon roe and swallow It hook and all. There is no use even to have a reel. The best fishing is in the creek you can Jump across. Find the little rill around the rotten log and drop the hook close under the bank, and It's dollars to doughnuts that a 12-lnch moun tain trout, fat and lusty, hooks himself so tight that he has to be cut off. He will give one hard pull, then give him a yank, and he is on the rocks, flounder ing. He will eat Just as well as If he was caught with a split bamboo and 75 yards of silk line on an automatic reel. Two out of every three schoolboys have a private tip for their friends for the fin est fishing stream within 20 miles. Start from the City Hall In any direction and walk ten miles, and it will be impossible to rates a stream that will answer the purpose. Johnson Creek and its tributa ries will be good, there aro a couple of little streams near Oswego which will also bring results, and out In Washing ton County there is Rock Creek. There onoe was a time when there was good fishing on F&nno Creek, which heads up the hills back of the city and meanders out into Washington County, swinging back by Durham Mills to Sucker Creek, but the filthy ways of man produced some hog -ranches at the head of it. and the whole longth is "befouled. Old-time sportsmen tell wonderful tales about big catches on Fftnno Creek, but the waters run turbid there now. and the fish know enough to stay away. Chamberlain's Coogh Iteaedy.

VERY UNCERTAIN Easterners Declare the People Can not Decide' What They Want Mrs. FIske Is Coming to the Coast In Her New Play. T shall make no effort to build a theater for the Fair, but I have an op tion on a valuable location in this city and expect to make leisurely prepara tions to put up a playhouse In the not very distant future." This was the statement made yester day by John F. Cordray. the well lcnowa theatrical manager, who re turned from an extended Eastern trip on Saturday night. Accompanied by Mrs. Cordray. ho visited New York. Chi cago and other Important cities for the purpose of studying the theatrical sit uation, and as the result of the chaotic conditions he found thero he has re considered his determination of imme diately erecting a new playhouse in Portland. The theatrical business Is very much disorganized," he continued, "and I con clude that It is the part of wisdom for me to proceed slowly. The public is in a peculiar mood. It seems to want something, but Is not dear as to what that something Is. Everywhere I went I found the situation the same. The craze for 10-cent vaudeville Is sweep ing; eastward from the Pacific Coast and the experience w havo had here Is be ing dulplcated all -over the country. The demand for 10, 20 and 30-:ent dramatic performances is also on the increase, particularly in the smaller cit ies. The managers are puzzled as to what the people want and are disposed to wait until they can discover the need. Thoso who have undertaken to educato the public to their way of thinking have gone broke, and the oth ers, are, simply "in the air." Belasco Owns New York. "In New Tork I found that Belasco literally owns the town. His produc tions are doing tremendous business. With the exception of Mrs. Fluke In "Lea Kleshna," one of the greatest plays I have ever seen and one of the biggest money makers In years, the only attractions which are really suc cessful ae -Mrs. Leslie Carter In "A'drea" and David Warfleld in "The Muslo Master." The rest of them are simply plugging along. It Is almost Impossible to secure seats for the FIske. Carter and Warfleld plays, while at the others seats are going begging. "Tho business has never In my ex perience been so uncertain. In Chicago and other places which X visited the business is unsatisfactory. "The New Tork managers have a per fect terror of the Pacific Coast, and al most no big attractions will be sent out here until tblngschange. Mrs. Fiske is coming out, but otherwise I was unable to find any of the big ones who have any Intention of risking it. "I am going to move cautiously. Eventually I shall build a theater here. My option has a long time to run, and in the course of time I shall be back in the field, but not at once. "Mrs. Cordray and I had a delightful time In New York. We had not been In the metropolis for several years and spent most of our time renewing old acquaintances and seeing the city. Mr. Fiske placed a box at our disposal for 'Lea Kleshna' during our stay and we' saw the performance several times. Aside from the fact that it is a great play and Mrs. Fiske has a great part in it, the 'company is one of the finest I ever saw around a star and a great treat is In store for Portland when it comes. Fair Well Advertised. "We visited St. Paul, Chicago, Toledo, Columbus, Pittsburg, Wheeling, Phila delphia and New York and everywhere found the Lewis and Clark Fair well advertised. Thousands of people are coming out next Summer from the sec tion east of the Mississippi River. Everybody seems interested In the Fair and particularly In this Northwest country. I talked to a number of prom inent railroad men and they are ex pecting a great volume of travel. Many people who ordinarily spend their Summers In Europe are coming out hero and It Is safe to calculate on Im mense crowds. "I notice that there Is a crusade here against billboards, and, while I agree that there are many abuses In this form of advertising. I do not believe In abol ishing billboards altogether. They are very much In evidence in the best cities of the East, and are an indication of prosperity and business enterprise. It's all right to restrict them, but I am not In favor of abolishing them. "We had a delightful visit but are glad to be at home again. Portland Is just a little the best place In the world, and I never expect to live anywhere else. This Is good enough for me. "We'll be ox'crrun with visitors next Summer. All the rest of the country Is coming to see us. The trip to the Coast Is a tempting one for Easterners. It of fers them the Yellowstone Park, the Co lumbia River. Portland, the Fair, Alaska and its wonders, the orange groves of California. San Francisco, Los Angeles, Catallna Island and the Canyon of the Colorado. Those are attractions which cannot be duplicated anywhere in the world. I am glad that I will be here to have a part In entertaining the rest of the country." Mr. Cordray brings back a good St. Patrick's day story, which he tells with great relish. On March 17, which, by the way. Is the manager's "birthday, he was sitting in the grill of the Hotel Astor In New York. Outside bands of music were parading the streets, and the city was In gala attire In honor of the Irish holiday. While Mr. Cordray was sit ting in the grill an Englishman of the "raw" type entered and took a scat. He called a waiter and ordered a blood-raw steak and a bottle of chile con came. meal certainly red enough for the most loyal Britisher. At a near-by table sat an Irishman with a shamrock in his but tonhole. He overheard the Englishman's order and, calling the waiter, said, "Bring me some green turtle soup, some green peas, spinach and green tea. "Is there anything else?" asked the waiter- "Yes, I want to hear that fel low over there say something."" OBSERVE THE DAY Spiritualists of City Celebrate an Anniversary. WHAT ITS ADHERENTS CLAIM Fifty-Seven . Years After the Advent of the Doctrine, Po'rtland Be lievers Hold Reunion, and All-Day Conference. The First Spiritual Society of Portland yesterday celebrated the 57th anniversary of the advent of Modern Spiritualism, in Artisan's Hall. In the Ablngton building. An all-day meeting was held. At 11 o'clock in the morning a conference took place in which the members of the so ciety discussed the subject of "The Com munion Between Mortals and Spirits Brings Progress." It was stated at the conference that more progress had been made by the world In tho last 57 tears than ever before. It was agreed that spiritualism had a great deal to do wltn this wonderful era of progress and ad vancement of civilization as before that time spiritualism was practically un- unknown. The Spiritualists believe, or at least they stated so at the conference, that many of the most scientlflo discoveries and inventions- known are a result of their researches. Such Inventions as tho tele phone, telegraphv, and the discovery of radium, they claim,- were partly duo to spiritualism. It was also stated at the conference that the emancipation of women was due to spiritualism. They say that before the Spiritualists took It up women were not allowed to lecture or take part in public meetings. If they did they were con sidered disgraced. .The Spiritualists, so it was stated at the conference, first allowed the women to act as mediums and de liver lectures. From that time on women had been given more freedom. Immediately following the , conference luncheon was served, which was partaken of by fully 205 people. Afterwards the Children's Progressive Lyceum and the pioneers met. At the meeting heldby the pioneers of the society, men who have been Spiritualists for years, the proposed tempie for the organization was dis cussed. It was found that everything looked favorable for the raising of the amount needed for the erection of the temple. The sum to be raised Is $30,000. The Ladles' Building Fund Aid Society, which was organized for the purpose of soliciting subscriptions towards the new building, has already secured about $700. It Is said that well-known business men of Portland have agreed to donate large sums of money for that purpose if the Spiritualists would get in and raise $1500 to show that they were sincere in the movement for permanent headquarters. J. H. McMillen. of Portland, has In formed the officers of the society that ho will donate several lots .for a location for the temple. He has not decided yet In Just , what iart of the city they will be. The members of the society are very much elated, over the prospects for the Jjuildlng and confidently believe that the desired amount will be raised without much difficulty. The Ladles' Building Fund Aid Society is doing most of the work In securing donations. In the evening John Milton Hodson, of Portland, lectured on "Why Bo a Spirit ualist?" He said, in the courae of his address, that noted writers, poets and inventors partly owed their success and achievements to spiritual impulse. He said they were nearly all dreamers, but that In their work thero could be recog nized a degree of spiritual impression. People often ask mo why I am. a Spirit ualist," said, Mr, Hodson. "Once I had a daughter whom you might say wa3 the apple of my eye. She suddenly took ill and died despite all our efforts to save her. After that my life seemed a blank until I investigated spiritualism. I then be came convinced that my daughter, as well as other dear friends who have passed over to the other side, still live. They still live. I learned of this through spiritualism. "Those who dio enter upon a different plane than that which we havo upon this earth. They reach a higher degree of excellency because their environments are better than ours. The impressions we get from our relatives and friends who have departed to the other side therefore give us a higher conception of this life. Confirmation at St. Lawrence. An impressive servico took place at St. Lawrence Church yesterday afternoon when a class of 93 children and adults received the sacrament of confirmation from Most. Rev. Archbishop Christie. The archbishop -was assisted by Rev. J. C Hughes, of St. Lawrence; Rev. W. A. Daly, of St. Mary's. Alblna; Rev. B. P. Murphy, of St. Patrick's; Rev. J. 3. Murphy and Rev. A. G. Do Lormler. of the Cathedral, and Rev- H. S. Gallagher and Rev. Thomas Hennes3y, of Colum bia University. Prior to administering the sacrament the most reverend archbishop delivered an Impressive discourse on tho significance of confirmation, which was listened to with marked attention by the. audi ence, which filled tho seats and aisles. The solemn ceremony ended with, the benediction. A Torturing Mystery. Lady's Realm. Thero is one .thing no woman can ever understand, and that is the abrupt change in her husband's manner toward her soon after, and .sometimes during, the honey moon. She can never discover why, from being the most perfect of mortal women. cherished, caressed, adored, she is sud denly of no consequence whatever. It is a mystery that baffles and tortures her.
