COMES TO TOWN
ON MASHINC BENT
Tillamook Rustic's Wiles Do
Not Conquer Beula
Erickson.
NEW GARB HAS NO EFFECT
Insulted Girl Tells Policeman, Who
Makes Henry Bcelcr, Sanctimo
nious of Aspect, First Vic-,
tim of the New Ordinance.
When the ordinance against mashers
was framed and passed by the City
Council lately, it was aimed at that
class of over-dressed dandies which
stands about corners blowing cigarette
emoke and smirking at women. The
first victim of the new law was in the
Municipal Court yesterday forenoon,
and he proved to be an awkward rus
tic, with an Impossible green tie, bargain-counter
clothes, red hair and big,
freckled hands.
Henry Beeler was the prisoner, and
he did not look the part he was play
ing. Being the type of man that is
generally a deacon In the village
church, his presence in court on a
charge of flirting seemed strangely in
congruous. And while it developed
that Beeler was merely In town for
a little frolic and thought it real devil
ish but not unlawful to accost strange
women, he was made an example of
by the court. He lives In Tillamook
County, where he has a farm worth
$10,000.
The Council's law against street flir
tations went Into effect several days
ego, and the moral squad has been
busily engraged looking for infractions.
Mashers appeared to be very wary,
however, in face of the m?w law, and
the police did not get a single quarry
until Beeler came to town from hi3
farm.
According to the testimony evolved
during his trial yesterday forenoon,'
the first thing Beeler did when he got
in from the farm Thursday noon was
to get shaved. Then he went and
picked out a lurid green tie, and set
out with the determination of break
ing a few hearts. Despite his near
, approach to 50 and the luck of an at
tractive appearance, he appeared to
have the idea there was something
Irresistible about him for the women
folks. At Third and Market streets he
took up his stand and waited.
Presently Miss Buelah Erjckson
passed by on her way home and looked
hard at him in passing. Knowing
everyone thereabouts, she thought it
might be an acquaintance. Beeler, of
course, attributed the glance to his
Irresistible personality, and set out at
once to favor her with the pleasure of
an introduction.
"Do you want me along, miss?" is
the unscientilic remark attributed to
the rural Lothario.
"No, thank you!" Miss Erickson re
plied severely, turning away toward
the other side of the street.
"Ah, heck, why not?" he persisted.
In his most alluring tones.
She turned into the street at this,
and Beeler gave up in despair. Ho
shuffled slowly back to his stand,
while Miss Erickson hastened on a
block and a half to whore a police
man was leaning against a telephone
pole. She told him of her experience
with the persistent rustic, and thus it
was that Beeler came to claim the
honor of being -the first person arrest
ed under the antl-fllrtlng law. He had
to spend the night In Jail, and was
brought into court yesterday forenoon
along with the drunkards,- vagrants
and other riffraff.
It might not have gone so hard with
him except that he persisted in deny
ing the whole thing. Judge Cameron
said that denial was a very unwise
course in the face of conclusive evi
dence. It might be all right to deny
It at home when the missus learned
of the incident and went on the war
path, but it was a reflection on the in
telligence of the court to deny it there.
Why should any young woman wrong
fully accuse him .of flirting with her?
Beeler attempted no response to these
suggestions from the court.
"I've always borne a fine reputation
among the neighbors," said Beeler, and
In proof he brought forward several wit
nesses, including a brother of Judge
Woiverton, who said Beeler was a right
eous name in Tillamook County.
. "It Is not the first time the righteous
have fallen from grace." suggested Judge
Cameron. He added that the time has
come when women must be protected
from rude persons as they pass along
the street. "It has long since been a
law that women cannot accost men im
properly and the opposite should apply
also," he said. "I think I shall just use
your case to show that such cases are
serious. You will be required to pay a
Ijne of f50.
Rivalry in South Portland bakery cir
cles has become so keen that two of the
principal competitors for trade spent half
the morning in the Municipal Court yes
terday to adjust their differences.
William Roseumny and Lewis Grobman
are the two in question and they have
been most active in the past, each striv
ing for the privilege of feeding South
Portland. Until a few days ago the com
petition was confined strictly to price
cutting, religion and other factors in
trade. Then Grobman resorted to base
strategy, so Roseumny declares.
For example; when he was out on his
run early in the week, he entered a house
to make a delivery. It had been a neck
and neck race with his competitor all
morning wfth no advantage on either
side. But when he came out the house
and leaped on his wagon to get ahead
o,f Grobman while that worthy was tak
ing his -alternate turn at making a sale,
there befell a most peculiar accident. The
wheels of the wagon dropped off. Ex
amination revealed that the burrs Vjiad
been removed. Who removed them, he
thinks, was obvious.
On the next day's race for trade Rose
umny says he nearly forfeited his life.
After making a delivery he sprang Into
his vehicle, tapped his steeds with a whip
and they broke into a run, only to dis
close that the bridles had been removed.
It was only after a spirited and danger
ous runaway that Roseumny got his team
stopped. Co, in consequence of these al
leged business methods, he wants the
court to exile Grobman or reform him.
The court postponed decision for a few
days, pending an endeavor to digest the
complicated testimony.
So many persons have been found drunk
in the gutter that the experience lias
come to be regarded as quite common
place. Thomas Scott, of Mt. Scott, has
succeeded In effecting a new phase of an
old thing, however, by carerully dis
robing before using the gutter as a place
of rest.
Thomas was found at daylight yester
day and the original man was never less
conspicuously attired. His clothes,
strangely enough, were neatly folded and
reposed on the cold pavement beside their
sometime wearer, who slept peacefully
and unmindful of the stream of chilling
water that all but engulfed him. Thomas
was no ordinary hoodlum, either. His
appearance was that of a thrifty man
of 45 and his clothes were tailor-made
and of expensive Fall material. It may
be it was some really reputable person
who had been out to the club. For the
name he gave Is regarded as an alias, and
after he had been charged ' 110 for his
night's lodging, he departed without leav
ing his address.

ed acts Walters and Hill in "The Hebrew
and the Actor" are going big. Alden, the
promising: young violinist, is a revelation to
musicians.
ENGINEERS jftRE EXPELLED
Row With Federated Trades Causes
Dismissal From That Body. .
As a result of their refusal to comply
with the ordnrs of the Federated Trades
Council, the Stationary Engineers' Union
was expelled from membership in the
Trades Council last night. This action by
the central body was the result of a con
troversy between the council and the en
gineers relative . to fulfilling a contract
with the Portland Brewing Company.
Neither the engineers nor the Trades
Council will recede from the position
each has taken and the outcome of the
trouble cannot be foretold. The engin
eers are enlisting the assistance of the
different unions in the city and may ap
peal their case from what they consider
the arbltary action of the Trades Council.
The attack that has been made on the
constitutionality of the initiative and
referendum law was discussed and a com-
J mlttee named to co-operate with the state
and cltv officials in defendlnW the local- !
ity of the law.
Ed Thayer was selected to represent the
Trades Council and address the Forum
at their meeting in the Mulkey building,
November 18, on the subject: "Asiatic
Exclusion.'
A live interest is being taken by organ
ized labor in Portland in the project to
erect a iabor temple. The committee to
which was referred the subject expects
soon to have some definite plans to an
nounce for the consideration of the unions.
The plan to build a home for the labor or
ganizations of the city was received with
enthusiasm from the start and the union
men of the city are confident they will
be able to buiiu. such a structure. The
various unions of the city are now paying
rentals aggregating between $10,000 and
$15,000 annually, and it is figured that this
caving would be sufficient to pay the in
terest on more than enough money to
build the temple.
HUNT CLUB CHASE TODAY
MEMBERS STIMULATED BY SUC
CESSES AT SEATTLE.
Few Cities Boast Better Riders or
Mounts Than Hard-Working
Portland Enthusiasts.
Ths paper chase to be held Saturday,, Octo
ber 19. -will start from Bast Fourteenth and
Thompson streets, at 2:45 P. M. Everything
indicates a, grand success for our horse show.
"We need your help to make it bo. .
Hares Mr. Joe Cronln and Mrs. S. C. Spen
cer. F. O. DOWMNO, M.JT. li.
This is a sample announcement of the
Hunt Club paper chase scheduled for this
afternoon and is also significant of the
energy of the club members to make
their coming horse show a success, not
only from a social standpoint, but from
the breeder's as well.
The news of the conquest made at the
Seattle horse show by the club members
was pleasing in the extreme, for it was
not expected by those who shipped their
horses to Seattle that they would do
more than help make the show a suc
cess. That Seattle appreciates what the'
Portlanders have accomplished is shown
by the splendid press notices they have
received. While the members of the Hunt
Club have never boasted of the splendid
riders it had among its membership, or
of its mounts, few cities in the United
States can boast of a better lot of cross
country riders or mounts than the local
club. The average Portlander opened his
eyes when he saw the splendid exhibition
of horsemanship during the Society Cir
cus and now that Miss Anne Shogren,
Mrs. A. M. Cronln, Mr. Cronin and Mr.
Nicol have won such distinctive honor at
Seattle by their display of horsemanship,
it will give added interest to the coming
show.
The fact that Otto Breyman's Frank
failed to get better than second in the
Jumping class is a disappointment, for
the horse is undoubtedly one. of the best
fencers on the Coast. Accidents are un
avoidable, and the fact that William
Walters, who rode Frank, met with a
mishap, does not indicate by any means
that the horse was beaten on merits.

Season of Coughs and
Colds Is Upon Us I
Now that the season Is approaching
when people are most subject to the un
pleasant experience of colds, with the
consequent wearing strain of coughing
and the danger of more serious trouble
apt to follow neglect, the following sim
ple formula Is most timely. It is said to
break up a cold In 24 hours and cure any
cough that Is curable. Mlx thoroughly a
half ounce of Virgin OH of Pine with
two ounces of glycerine and eight ounces
of good whisky. Use In teaspoonful doses
every four hours. Five ounces of tinc
ture Cinchona compound can be used in
place of the whisky with the same effect.
The ingredients are inexpensive and can
be purchased without trouble at any good
drugstore. To avoid substitutes of some
inferior pine product for the Virgin Oil
of Pine, it is better to purchase each
separately and mix them at home.
FOR AN IDEA
Who Will Supply It?
We want advice or an original idea on the best plan to advertise
and close out our wholesale clothing stock. To the person furnishing
us with a plan that we will adopt we will give as a cash prize $50 in gold.
When we decide-1 to retire from the wholesale clothing business our
inventory showed a stock on hand of nearly $200,000, practically all of
this season's make of clothing. At that time we decided the quickest
way to close out the stock would be to sell at least part of it to the retail
trade at wholesale prices. We carried out this plan by leasing for three
months the first floor of the new Couch Building, located on Fourth
street near Washington. We moved clothing' here amounting to about
$160,000, and the balance, or $40,000 worth, we kept in the wholesale
house at 42 Front street, to be sold to merchants at a discount of 10 per
cent under wholesale prices. These goods are selling rapidly and will
easily go before January 1st.
The sale we need to boost will be the one in the Couch Building. Our
sales here are averaging about one thousand dollars per day. At this
rate it would take one hundred and sixty working days to sell the stock.
Whereas Ave only have the store for eighty days. We must double our
sales; profits will cut no figure; all we want is to get our money out even
We will pay $50.00 in gold for the best idea on how we can advertise
this sale so we can sell this Clothing between now and January 1st.
Answers must be in on or before Monday, October 21. The result
will be announced in the daily papers on Tuesday. '
