. THE MORNING OREGO IAN, WEDNESDAY, DECEMBER 5, 1906. PLAN II BLACKLIST Portland Butchers Will Keep Tab on "Slow Pay" Patrons. WHOLESALERS ARE BARRED Ilctail Meat Dealers' Association Drops Them from Membership. Appointment of City Beef In spector Is Demanded. At the meeting of the Portland Re tall Meat Dealers' Association last nlKht it was decided to drop all whole sale, dealers from the membership roll and make the association exclusively a retailers' organization. A resolution was unanimously passed prohibiting liny member of the association from transacting: any business with a whole sale dealer who also conducts a retail business. It is hoped by this means to protect the retailers and refute the. charge of a retail beef trust existing In Portland. The sentiment of the meeting was strongly in favor of a stringent meat inspection law that shall protect the farmers, the public and those dealers who conduct first-class shops. A com mittee of three was appointed by the association to confer with the Board of Health as to the best means of en forcing sanitary conditions in the dif ferent shops. A resolution favoring the appointment of a meat Inspector ,was passed without a dissenting vote. The committee which was appointed to confer with the City Board of Health will also 'go before the City Council and ask that an inspector who is thoroughly familiar with the indus try be appointed, and that the names of dealers conducting unsanitary shops be submitted to the association. It is also the desire of the association that all dealers who are placed under the ban be compelled to quit business. It is hoped by this means to insure bet ter sanitary conditions in all the shops and give the public better service. As the association comprises about 90 per cent of the meat dealers in Portland, members of the organization claim it will be almost impossible for . any outside dealers to conduct a suc cessful business contrary to the rules of the association. Nearly all dealers present complained of losing largely on credit business, and a remedy for this evil will be adopted. It was decided that each member of the association will be fur nished a copy of this "black list" and "deadbeats" who make a practice of running small bills at shops in differ ent parts of the city will find them selves shut out. The meeting was largely attended, and the business coming before it was transacted with enthusiasm. TRAIN THIEF IS CAUGHT Man Who Fought With Passenger lias Bad Wounds. KANSAS CITY, Mo., Dec. . A man believed, from a certificate of member ship in his pocket, to be Charles H. Green, a., boilermaker of Colorado, was arrested at Lawrence, Kansas, today, charged with shooting E. C. Ward, of Purcell, I. T., a passenger on west bound Santa Fe train No. 17 at Holli day, Kan., at 11 o'clock last night. The man was arrested in the office of a physician, to whom he had gone to get his wounds dressed. He had been shot through the fleshy part of the leg and his hand had been cut by glass, pieces of which were still in the cut. Green, who is about 32 years of age, refused to talk. Ward, the wounded passenger. Is in the Santa Ke hospital at Topeka. The physicians said today he probably will recover if blood-poisoning does not set in. ' . . SOUTH WANTS ; SETTLERS Movement . for, Immigration Depart nicnt In Each Stale. COLUMBIA; 6. C, Dec. 4. The execu tive committee of the Southern Immi gration and Industrial Association met here today. The committee recommend ed "that the first efforts of this asso ciation ehall be to establish depart ments of immigration and commerce (full departments of the state govern ment) in each of the Southern states, as affording the best and most practical means of securing the selected immi gration that the South and the coun try at large desires." Commercial, trade, industrial and other, bodies will be asked to support the movement for Trans-Atlantic steamship service into Southern ports. A campaign to increase the attendance at the agricultural and industrial schools of the South will also be in augurated. Tonopah Prices Generally Lower. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 4. (Special.) Tonopah's Belmont started -a down ward movement in the Tonopah, and prices during the call were generally lower. Mohawk, at $16, was an encouragement to Goldfield holders, and though Goldfield mining and Silver Pick were weaker and lower, Co lumbia, Black Rock, Red Top and Daisy were stronger and higher. The volume of business was small, as is to be expect ed at this time of the year. Among the sales: McNaniara, 90c; Belmont, $6.00; Golden Anchor, 57c: Jim Butler, $1.47: Boston, 25c: Mohawk, $16; Gold Crown, 21c; Blue Bull, 44c; Adams, 22c; Dixie, 16c. Escaped From Russian Prison. SAN FRANCISCO, Dec. 4. George Ger shuni, a Russian political prisoner of Siberia, arrived here on the China yes terday. He escaped from the Akatny prison, in Siberia, concealed in a barrel of sauerkraut. Gershuni was one of the organizers of the fighting division of the Revolutionary party. He was arrested in May, 190:. and in March, 1904, was sen tenced to be hanged. As he had never assisted personally in the killing of any body, his sentence was commuted to life imprisonment in the Schlesselburg pen itentiary. ' He was afterward transferred to the prison at Akatny, near the Man churian border. Fire Loss at San Francisco. SAN FRANCISCO. Dec. 4. A fire which broke out at midnight in the office of L. Werlin, coffee broker at 3 Front street, spread rapidly and destroyed a number of buildings in the block facing on Mar ket street. The principal losses by the blaze were the Bulls Head Oil Works, American Insurance Company, of New York: Northern Assurance Company, Lake. Hale & Co., steel dealers; M. P. 1 Deter, flour and hay; Preston Commercial Company,. and Naber, Alf & Brane, whole sale liquor-dealers. The damage done is estimated at between $75,000 and $100,000. Madame Norelli Wins Honors Abroad Prima Donna Who Is Proud to Claim Portland as Her Home, Scores Triumphs on Concert Stage "0 CR OWN NORELLI." Mrs. Ernest, Barton, arrived in Port land 'yesterday for a visit and holiday of several weeks, coming direct from her recent London triumphs to her much loved home city on the Pacific Coast. She is as fresh and winsom and charming as a young girl or 16, and those who have followed her brilliant.and suc cessful season on the concert stage in England, Ireland, Scatland and Wales know that she has come into her own and that not only Portland tout all Amecl- l ca has been well represented In the world of song by this great soprano. Sihe brings us a breath of the metropolitan centers of Europe infused with the genu ine enthusiasm of the true American. Her chat of the great artists who have gathered almost daily in her studio, of the education of her little daughter, of shopping -i Paris, of the events in the musical world of both continents, of her pleasure at being -home again, her war(m defense of Caruso and her ecstasies over the wonderful boy violinist Mischa Ellman was delightful to hear and was told in a medley of fascinating accents through which was threaded a suggestion of her native Scandanavian tongue. She thought it a decided joke when accused of speaking in three or Tour different languages at once and declared that only a few years ago she could speak but tweC "A leedle Swedish and purty mooch Yam hill then" she drawled in inimitable style. Invited to Join Conreld's Company. Madame Norelli has had a busy life since she left Portland last year, but it his been so full of triumphs and suc cesses that It was more than worth while. Under the management of the London impresario Daniel Mayor she ha9 toured the British Isles and will probably go with him to Australia next season. Being under contract she was compelled to re fuse Herr Conreid's flattering offer to Join the ' Metropolitan Opera forces as she came through New York. After her visit in Portland with her family she will re turn to England, where she is to appear in Albert Hall, London, in April. It is a great compliment' even to a great prima donna to be asked to sing in Albert Hall, and on the occasion of Madame Norelli's appearance there next Spring she will be accompanied by an orchestra of over 200 pieces and a chorus of 1000 voices. She has been associated with many of the great opera stars at Covent Garden and has so much of interest to tell of them that a book could be written about it. And right nobly does she come to the de fense of Signor Caruso, whom ,she con siders the victim- of a disgraceful plot to ruin his brilliant career. "I know Sig Caruso very, very well," she earnestly exclaimed, "and I have never met a more perfect gentleman, nor a more kind and thbughful friend. The first time I appeared with the celebrated grand opera stars he came to my assist ance in a way I shall never forget I was shrinking in a dark corner at my first rehearsal, terribly frightened and embarrassed, when he discovered me and led me out on the stage, told me about the accoustics of the building, and was most considerate. I cannot express my admiration for the man and the artist, and that such an incident should have come up to ruin him is a shame." 'Rnnel's Art T Knhtlp. Madam Norelli's blue eyes snapped with the injustice she felt had been done the great tenor. She considers him startling and all powerful In his art, but Bonci she describes as "he of the subtle art." "Will Bonci become a favorite? Well, it depends upon the appreciation of American audiences for real art, or rather for delicate art. As they have already become enamoured of Caruso's brilliant style and overwhelming temperament, it is doubtful it they will like Bonci so much, for his art i very different. It is oh, so subtle It is like a- pearl so delicate so beautiful. . When ' the Mo zart anniversary was celebrated in Berlin the Itailians selected Bonci to represent the nation as its general voice." Madame complacently adjusted the folds ot her decidedly chic French traveling gown as she smiled her appreciation of the admiration it excited from her call ers. "It Is quite worth while a French gown," she assured them. "Those French modistes how they know their art! They study one thoroughly before submitting DEFINES WATER RIGHTS DRAFT OF XEW STATE CODE COMPLETED. Planned to Give Fullest Use for Irri gation Purposes Legislature Must Approve It. Existing water rights will be denned by the next Legislature if the water code compiled by a committee of irrigation ex perts from all parts of the state which completed its work last night, is made a law. The measure 'provides an adjust ment of present water rights and also out lines a method of .administration for th regulation of the use of water. In framing the water code an attempt has been made to bring the state abreast of progress in the science of Irrigation and to provide means for' safeguarding present rights as well as allowing the full est use of water for irrigation purposes. The committee states there is no inten tion of breaking down present rights, but tit merely define them. The committee finds that titles to water rights in Oregon are in a chaotic state and perhaps the greatest value of the new code will be to define present holdings. The committee practically completed its work last night and left the code in the hands of a committee to be printed. It will then be submitted to the Legisla ture. Members of the committee which has been at work for the past two days are: Will Kink, Riparia; J. M. Hart, Baker City; Stephen A. Lowell, Pendleton; R. R. Johnson, Echo; Senator N. Whealdon, The Dalles; J. G. Taylor, and G. W. Allen. Portland; Franklin T. Griffith, Ore gon City; John H. Lewis, William T. Lord, and Attorney-General Crawford, Salem; J. W. Perkins. Medford; and Dr. El wood Mead, Washington, D. C. The committee met for two days in Salem last October and adjourned to meet here. Dr. Elwood Mead, an expert on irrigation, who is the head of the Agri cultural Department's work, addressed the committee, Monday night and E. E. Chandler, of the legal department of the California Reclamation Service, also poke. MAY TRANSFER FRANCHISE Mount Hood Railway Company to Take Over Rights.

The size and figure the com plexion, eyes, hair even one's tempera ment, has to do with the drawing that is made. And, of course, after all that, the gown is individual it brings out the best in the wearer. Why not?" Portland's Musical Spirit. After 'sowing these seeds of trouble for several Portland pocketbooks, she inquired after musical Portland. "I am glad you are having good artists here, even though only occasionally. I have long felt that Portland should be a mu sical center on the Coast, for it has much talent and everything to encourage a musical atmosphere, even a magnificent natural setting. With the Sound cities it is different there is so much lacking in sympathy and talent. 1 will always be so glad to do anything I can to promote a musical spirit here." "And will you sing for Portland before Hood Railway Campany was recently organized for the purpose of building the much-talked of electric line from Port land to Mount Hood. It is reported 'that both corpcrations are interested in the Mount Hood road project and that the railway company will be permitted to use the right of way and water rights of the electric company. Engineers and survey ors have been in the field for some time. Should this project be carried out there will not only be an electric road to the very foot of Mount Hood, but a large power plant will be built on the Sandy River. LECTURE IS POSTPONED Dr. Wilson Unable to Appear at Fourth Presbyterian Church. A large audience which had gath ered in the Fourth Presbyterian Church last night to hear Dr. Clarence True Wilson speak on "The Wit and Humor of the Bible" was disappointed when It was announced that an unex pected meeting of the district confer enc would necessitate the postpone ment of the lecture. W. R. McGarry took Dr. Wilson's place, and entertained the audience with a brief lecture on "Usury and Its Relation to Human Happiness," prefacing his remarks by saying that he considered Dr. Wilson a practical Joker, inasmuch as the assemblage forthwith would be mauled with the same weapon Samson used on the Philistines. Mr. McGarry thinks there should be a 2 per cent limit on money loaners. This, he says, would stimulate all in dustries. He gave figures to show that the banks of the United States have already loaned more money than there actually is in the entire country. He says, too, that the burdens the next generation will have to bear will be enormous unless something can be done to put a stop to usury. The lecturer told a humorous story. A friend who worked for Jiis father went one evening to call on Mary Smiths She was a good-natured girl weighing 312 poi'ds. There was only one chair in the kitchen. After the young people had been in the room for some time Mary Jane was heard to ask: "Are you tired, John?" "No," answered John, "I was about an hour ago, but I'm numb now." Mr. McGarry turned to the young millionaires who were heard to titter in .the corner of the hall and said there should be a heavy tax on all fortunes over - $10,000,000. When a man has $80,000,000, Mr. McGarry says lie should be taxed 80 per cent. BUSINESS ITEMS.

When I am rested and have visited with my family and friends, I may sing in public, if it is wished. After the holi days would be a better time probably." The gods have been more than kind to Madame Norelli. They have blessed her with a magnificent voice, a commanding figure, good looks, a magnetic person ality, and a smile that is worth a fortune to any prima donna. It is one of those winsome, genuine, unstudied, spontane ous smiles, that always brings an an swering one in return one that com pels admiration and trust. And when she has smiled and talked five minutes one does not question her frankly ex pressed opinion that English audiences are not cold and unresponsive. An audi ence that could be cold to Norelli would be deaf and blind. M. M. E LIFE FDR HIS WORK AGRICULTURAL- COLLEGE Y. M, C. A. LEADER IS DEAD. C. L. Shepard's Ambition Was to Erect a Building to House This Association at Corvailis. CORVALLIS, Or., Dee. 4.-(Special.)-The college flag hangs at half-mast today on account of the death of C. L. Shep ard, late secretary of the Y. M. C. A. of the institution, who passed away this morning at his parents' home near Zena, Polk County. The funeral is to take place Thursday morning and a delegation of students will be sent to Zena to attend. Mr. Shepard was graduated from Ore gon Agricultural College in 1904. and was at once elected secretary of the Y. M. C. A., in which caoacitv he became the pro moter of a building to be erected oh a site adjoining the college campus, which building was to cost $15,000 and be the home of the Christian associations at the college. Nearly all the money was pledged and a foundation was laid. About that time Mr. Shepard was seized with illness and for lack of his energetic campaign the work came to a stand-still and has remained so for the past ten months. His malady was tuberculosis, and his friends say he contracted it in overwork and exposure incident to his campaign for the Y. M. C. A. building. They think his surrender of his life to the enterprise ought to lead wealthy friends somewhere ip the state to take up the work where he left off and push it to a completion, if, for nothing more, in mere recognition of bis devotion to the idea. Mr. Shepard was 23 years of age. His brother vv alter won a fellowship at Har vard, and after two years travel In Eu rope, returned to the institution and be came an instructor. Another brother is a student at Harvard. Still another brother, Ralph, is a graduate, of Oregon Agricultural College. Taxpayers Win at Gresham. .
