H. W. Snashall, manager and president of the Multnomah & Clackamas Mutual Tele phone Company, the farmers' Independent line, announces that about 50 telephones have been Installed on the Gresham, Cedarville and Pleasant Valley branches. All the lines arc being well built and equipped with latest Improvements. New lines will be Installed, says Mr. Snashall, as fast as men can, be found to do the work, and the time is not far off when the farmers of Eastern Multnomah and Clackamas Counties can talk with each other xnd do business over the lines. Manger Sr.:is!,all reports having spent 1218.18 for material, for labor J240.20, and for his own time H20.60, or a total of $569.48. The total number of poles on the Gresham, Cedarville and Pleasant Valley lines is 320; cross arms 145, number con densed miles 10, number lineal miles (two wires) 20; average cost of condensed mile alt complete, including telephones, 175.36; average cost per lineal mile. $18.84: aver age cost per mile, $47 Forty-five fir poles were used, and 65 cedar poles. Manager Snashall reports that all bills have been paid. Onb Fill Completed-The first fill on Union avenue, which is between East Alder and Morrison streets, was com pleted yesterday by the Pacific Bridge Company. This fill was made on only one side of the street where there was a aolid foundation. The railway spur will now be laid north on Union avenue from East Washington street, when the real work will begin. This till begins about TO feet south of East Stark street and ex tends to within 70 feet of East Oak Etreet. On the west side there are build ings. Including the old East Side Hotel, which stands on piles. What effect the weight of the earth will have remains to be seen. If the mud extends as far down as it does on Grand avenue there may be some trouble in keeping the build ing along the west side of the street from being pushed over. On the solid ground north of East Oak street the contractors are preparing to put down pavement. Will Build Fink Residence. A per mit was issued yesterday by the Building Inspector for a handsome residence to be constructed by Mrs. Sol HIrsch on the couth side of Washington street, between Ford and St. Clair. The value of the residence is to be $40,000, as shown in the j-ermlt, and the builders are Langford & Walker. The dwelling, when completed, will be one of the finest homes In Port land. Mrs. Ulrsch began improving the site last Fall preparatory to building. Tim grounds occupy a quarter block, and a large amount of money will be spent In beautifying them. Plans for the resi dence have been prepared by Edgar M. Lazarus. The housw will be finely fin ished and of artistic design. , Wants Tom Richakoson Back. Tom Richardson, manager of the Commercial Club, received a telegram yesterday from Albert Godchaux, president of the New Orleans Progressive ITnion. who is now in New York City, making him an offer to return to the Crescent City and resume his old position with the organization with increased salary. Mr. Richardson was formerly secretary of the New Or leans Progressive Union and came to Portland from that place. "It always makes a man feel good, anyway, to know that he Is wanted aealn where he once lived and worked," he said yesterday, "but I am afraid that I cannot accept Mr. Godchaux's offer." Insane Woman Arrested. Men wear ing felt hats are objects to be admired, thinks Nellie Johnson. Yesterday the woman was arrested by Patrolman Burke and she now occupies a cell In the County Jail, awaiting an examination as to her sanity. She was found by Burke trying to make love to all men wearing felt hats who passed the corner of Eleventh and Ilurnptde streets. Burke took the woman to Jail, and then appeared before Deputy Clerk Carl Chrlstensen and swore out an Insanity warrant against his prisoner. Realtt Board Meets. It was decided at the meeting of the Portland Realty Board yesterday afternoon to have the constitution and by-laws published in took form for the convenience of the members. The constitution "contains many Important provisions relating to commissions and other subjects which It Is desired to have handy for reference. Owing to the fact that many of the mem bers are cut of town, the board decided to hold no meetings during the next month. Bishop Tiiorbi-rn Here. Rev. James M. Thorbnrn. a missionary otshop of the Methodist Episcopal Church. Is in Port land, and will occupy the pulpit at the Grace Church next Sunday morning. Bishop Thorburn has had a wide experi ence in missionary work In the Philip pines and In Asiatic countries generally and will speak upon the work that Is being done In those lands. Slow Work on Pipe Line. It Is re ported that slow work is being done on the new pipe line from the high service reservoir from Mount Tabor, and that It may be as late as October before It will be finished, instead of August, as an nounced. At present only a light crew Is employed, and the laying of the pipe goes forward slowly. Imposes Restrictions. The Piedmont Water Company has imposed a restriction on Its consumers to the effect that they must not use water for Irrigation more than two hours a day. and then only three times a week.

Robert Martin, who is in Portland on a furlough from the United States rev enue cutter Grant, is only 15 years old, but he has performed a deed whlcn stamps him as a hero. Young Martin was last Winter work ing on the steamer Empress of India, plying between Hong Kong and Van couver, B. C. On February 18,'two days out from the Chinese port. First Offi cer Hopcroft was thrown from the ship by a monster wave.

After a hard swim Mar tin reached the exhausted officer and succeeded in sustaining him until a boat could be sent to the rescue. The steamer was nearly half a mile from the officer before she stopped, and all this time Martin was making a brave fight against, the waves to rescue Hop croft. Martin Is a slender fellow, quiet and very refined In appearance. "I think anybody would have done the same thing as I did," he said mod estly, when complimented on his brav ery. . -.HOW BIG FIRMS ADVERTISE Success of the American Tobacco Company of New York. One of the strongest corporations of the country today Is the American Tobacco Company, which holds the controlling in terest in a great number of allied corpo rations, such as the American Cigar Com pany, the Havana Tobacco Company, etc. The . American Cigar Company, for in stance, has acquired the business of prob ably 60 or 60 different cigar factories of the country. The general public has been led to be lieve that the formation of the great cor poration has for its object greater econ omy, covering expenditures for such non essentials as advertising, etc. It will be a surprise to these people to learn that the American Cigar Company today spends more for advertising every six months than the 50 or 60 concerns which have been taken into this combine spent during their entire history. While the American Cigar Company controls a little less than 20 per cent of the output of cigars sold by the American Company, yet it does more advertising than all the oth er cigar companies combined. There is no field that affords better op portunity for persistent and intelligent newspaper advertising tnan is orrerea in the line of staple products of every-day consumption. The success of the Amer ican Tobacco Company and its allied cor porations, as well as the success of the National Biscuit Company, has attracted the attention of general advertisers every where. Both the American Tobacco Com pany and the National Biscuit Company are today expending hundreds of thou sands of dollars a year for newspaper ad vertising. Girls Have Fun at Ex pense of Passers-By Department Store Glrlg Drop Wire Nulls From Windows and People Look for Coins on Sidewalk. V ELI VERY boys and cashgirls em Lr ployed in the down-town department stores have found a new diversion. Ihir Ing their leisure hours they perch them selves in a high window overlooking the sidewalk where many persons are passing and drop wire nails, which strike the pavement with a ring like the Jingle of silver coins. Each nail causes a commotion. Passers by who are the victims of the mischiev ous boys and girls above usually stretch their necks every way, expecting to see a silver piece rolling, perhaps in their direction. Then they stop, supposing that someone is going to pick up the lost money. Straining their eyes they inspect the sidewalk, the street and the gutter. Thev are sure they heard the money fall After an unsuccessful hunt the disap pointed coin-seeker goes on down the street, only to be followed by hundreds of other victims to the little game of "drop. Directly above the sidewalk is the hap py bunch. Nail after nail is dropped cautiously, never failing to attract the attention of a dozen or more of the pass ine throng. The youngsters enjoy it highly. And they have a right to the fun it is purely their own invention. WHERE JO DINE.

GHOST WILL WALK TODAY Bessie Tannehill Receives Offer to Go Into Vaudeville and May Accept Kusso Starts for Los Angeles. The musical season at the Helllg Theater came to an abrupt close yester day. Hot weather and the indisposition of Portland to patronize good musical per formances in the Summer time made the attendance smaller than would support an organization as big and expensive as the Kendall Musical Company, which made a brave effort to give this city a meritorious season of opera. Six weeks, including notable productions of "The Rounders," "Said Pasha," "The Telephone Girl," "Wang," "The Mascot," "Cavallerla Rusticana," "Olivette" and "Trovatore," did not serve to awaken the public sufficiently, and the backers of the enterprise, E. F. Seamans, R. H. Davis and Calvin Helllg, did not care to sustain any further loss. Mr. Seamans is responsible for the com pany, and the salary list amounts up to about $1000, or more, per week. The first week opened auspiciously, ana the oace set. together with the standard established, was Increased instead of di minished as the successive changes oi bill occurred. The principals were good enough for any company. The chorus was pretty and competent and well- costumed. Bessie Tannemu reveaiea a voice that would make a hit among angels. The celebrated Russo was brought here to figure in the grand- opera selections. Robert Pitkin showed that he was among the most fetching of musi cal comedy artists. Millar Bacon moved people with his splendid voice. Lottie Kendall proved again that there are few sweeter or more piquantly attractive per sonalities anywhere In light opera circles on the American stage. Myrtle Vane kept up her clever soubrette work in dead earnest. Ben Lodge stoo- up to his end nobly as the other fonny man of the show. The performances pleased everyone who attended the theater. But the sweltering days continued. Few people wanted to leave the se clusion of a watered lawn, or the com fort of a sheltered porch in the Hades like nights that oppressed us. And thus the deficit grew on the books of the man ager who sought to win Portlandites at this season of the year. Suddenly Mr. Seaman telegraphed, yesterday, to his partners to close the season in this" city. He had been in Los Angeles for the last two weeks. Later in the day he telegraphed again to hold the company, as he had made arrangements to play them two weeks right away in San Francisco, and then take them to Los Angeles to play out the balance of the Summer. Consternation reigned in some parts of the company when the notice was posted on the theater bulletin yesterday morn ing. But it subsided at length. The sal aries will all be paid this morning that Is, what remains coming to the members of the company. Everybody who was brought up here will be taken to San Francisco and then to Los Angeles, and they all want to go, with very few ex ceptions. Tannehill May Go in Vaudeville. Russo took the train last evening to Los Angeles, where he is doing well at teach ing, and only came up here for this spe cial engagement. Bessie Tannehill has had a fine offer from Mr. Erickson to go Into vaudeville for several weeks, touring the Northwest circuit. She made the best hit of the season here. In fact, her lovely singing is the most talked-of feature of the season just closed. All the musicians in town, as well as the audiences that have heard her at the Heillg. unite in praising her clear, natural, well-trained, silvery voice. She certainly has Portland at her feet. A tour of the Northwest In vaudeville would spread her fame and es tablish her for future tours in opera. Some one will secure her for an operatic star before very long, it seems probable. Company Goes South. Miss Kendall will return south with the company, Including Mr. Pitkin, Mr. Ba con, Mr. Lodge, Mr. Lynch, Mr. Reynolds, Miss Vane, Miss Adams, etc., and the full chorus. Mr. Davis leaves tonight for San Francisco and Los Angeles. It is probable that the company will not start for a day or two longer. Miss Tannehill has not yet decided whether or not she will accept the proposition to go into vaudeville, but it Is probable that she will accept it. It will give her a fine opportunity for money making, and increase her vogue on the Pacific Coast. In San Francisco and south of there she is well known. One feature of this season was the chance it gave to two talented young Portland girls Miss Elsie Garrett and Miss Lillian Crosman. Miss Garrett is so liked by the management that it has made her an offer to go south, and con tinue with the company. Miss Crosman will go East in October with her mother to study and perfect herself further in her operatic career. Both Miss Garrett and Miss Crosman will spend a little time at the beach resting before they take up any further work. Kolb and Dill want to come up here for a season at the Heilig, but it is probable that the Heilig will be dark for the rest of the Summer. WANT WATER MAINS LAID East Side Residents Ask That Im provement Be Made Soon. A permanent pavement is to be put down on Bast Burnside street very soon, and later on Grand avenue. On East Burnside, which is a business street for some distance out from the Burnside bridge, there is no water main, and the buildings on the street get their water from side streets. In view of the fact that permanent pavement is soon to be laid, some of the property-owners are agitating for a large water main to run up to East Eighth street. They think that this should be attended to at once. If the improvement is delayed until the pavement has been laid the street will have to be torn up. It is also the opinion of property-owners that a good-sized water main should be laid on Grand avenue north from East Washington and East Everett streets be fore the hard pavement is laid on that thoroughfare. VAUDEVILLE ACTORS WED Charles Cirlincione and Isabella Downey Made One. There was a small rice shower and a wee throwing of shoes behind the scenes at the Pantages Theater last night in honor of the marriage of Charles Cirlin cione to Miss Isabella Downey. The bridegroom plays a role at the show house, while his pretty bride formerly appeared behind the footlights of the Pantages stage. The couple were mar ried yesterday afternoon in the cham bers of Judge Fraxer. Smiling as merrily as though a rich uncle had died and bequeathed him a for tune, Cirlincione wended his way to the marriage license counter in the Court house yesterday and informed Deputy County Clefk C. H. Chrtstensen that he had $3 to spend. Christensen knew all about It. A permit to wed was made out without further questioning. "Now, can't you please show us the way to the nearest Judge?" shyly asked the pretty bride-to-be. Ual - An-ron vmlnff fPnilfV clerks made I a rush to comply with the request, but the honor feu to fTea w. jrrasp, deputy. And for his kindness in show ing the way, Prasp was selected to act as best man at the ceremony, while Ger trude Overlie was the bridesmaid. THEIR POSITION IS JUST WHERE THE PHENIX INSUR ANCE COMPANY OP BROOK LYN STANDS. A Clear, Fair Statement of the Com pany's Attitude by General Agent J. H. Lenehan. A serious misunderstanding has arisen regarding the attitude of a number of the companies interested in the San Francisco losses, and I deem it advisahle to inform you as to the position occupied by many of them, and particularly as to that of the Phenix. The terrible earthquake of April 18, which wrecked and damaged innumerable buildings and their contents, destroyed the water mains of the city and rendered useless the theretofore effective fire de partment, was followed by a conflagration unparalleled as to area and property values involved. The company's policies do not cover loss or damage by earthquake, and the injec tion of this new element Into the ques tion, as fire followed and completed the destruqtion, has raised an issue not easily disposed of. Where policies covered build ings and (or) their contents which had certainly fallen before the fire, or which had been so damaged as to void the insur ance, claims under such policies cannot be recognized. Where the damage by earthquake was not of sufficient magnitude to render the insurance void, or where buildings and (or) their contents were destroyed by civil and (or) military authority before the fire, or where books and records were de stroyed, so that It is impossible to supply the proofs of value required under the contract and for other good reasons it seemed right and Just that if settlements were had under policies not absolutely void a reasonable deduction should be made from the face of the policies. Many companies expressed a willingness to dis pose of such claims by immediate settle ments for cash, after deducting 25 per cent from the policy if the same were generally adopted. It is needless to say that such settlement was not obligatory on the assured; he could elect to avail himself of it or await an adjustment, which naturally would be long and te dious, because of the many complications arising from the difficulty of separating losses for which companies were liable from those exempted in the policy con tract, because of the many varying forms of policy contracts and the loss of essen tial records, both by the companies and the assured. The proposition appealed to many busi ness men and bankers, who saw in it the means for prompt disposal of these claims on a cash basis, and which meant much to the policyholders In San Francisco. This tentative plan, however, did not meet with the approval of some com panies, several of whom saw in its oppo sition an opportunity to secure a certain amount of advertising, and nothing has been left undone in that direction. I be lieve this plan offered needed relief to a stricken community, and if generally adopted would have provided the funds for immediate restoration of much of the property destroyed. It apparently has not secured sufficient indorsement to ren der it effective, and the Phenix will pro ceed in the adjustment of its own losses, giving to each the careful investigation made imperative by reason of the pres ence of a new and extraordinary condi tion, and necessarily calling for closest scrutiny. We owe this to the company and its stockholders, as well as policy holders everywhere.; to you and your patrons, who are depending on having re liable insurance for protection against legitimate loss, and to the business world. but the Phenix will carry out the original proposition and pay at once in cash any claim for which It is legally liable on the basis of a reasonable compromise, if de sired, to avoid the delay Incident to ad justment on account of complications In volved. The Phenix Insurance Company needs no champion to defend its name before the people of this country. Its record of 53 years' operations and honorable dis charge of obligatiens in all of the great conflagrations since Its organization will be fully maintained. It will be found in this instance as heretofore fair and up right in its dealings with claimants, and prompt and thorough In meeting its le gitimate liability a position which will commend It as it has in the past to the consideration of honorable men. Yours very truly, J. H. LENEHAN, General Agent. Drunken Man Sobered With Stomach Pump Charles Johnston Tells Companions He Has Taken Strychnine ; Physician Bays He Is Shamming;. Charles Johnston, employed as team ster by a local slabwood concern, told his fellow workmen yesterday that he had swallowed strychnine. The fel low's associates immediately became greatly alarmed. While Johnston was telling; them he had swallowed enough to kill a horse and had only a few min utes to live, there was a scattering in search of a physician.

After a time Johnston was pronounced out of dan ger, and then the doctor begun to sus pect his patient was shamming. He ex amined Johnston for signs of poisoning and found only traces of red-eye whis ky. He declared the man a fake. The doctor's efforts were not wasted, how ever, as Johnston was perfectly sober when the medical man got through with him. SEEKS MISSING BROTHER Daniel Hannula Here Looking for Demented Astoria Man. Daniel Hannula, of 237 Taylor street, Astoria, was in Portland yesterday searching for his brother Andrew, who left Astoria Thursday night while de- mented. Hannula requests that any per son knowing the whereabouts of the missing man communicate with him at his address in Astoria. He made the rounds of Portland hotels and resorts frequented by Finianders, but could find no trace of his brother.
