The charter advisory committee will hold a short session to organize for business tonight at the adjournment of the United Eut Side Push Clubs, at the Sargent Hotel. The following are members: L. B. Rice. Phil. Bates, Dr. H. M. Green, C. U Daggett, Dr. William DeVeny. H. H. Newhall, Father Greggory, Frank J. Perkins. J. H. Haak. Dr. L. M. Davis. M. G. Munly and W. U. Boise. Several of the members are absent from the city, but it is desired to effect an organiza tion and make arrangements for holding business sessions. This committee will discuss changes to the city charter and submit such amendments as It may ap prove to the Charter Revision Commis sion. There are several' amendments In which the East Side is directly inter ested, nd among these are the taking over of hard-surface Improvements by the city, turning over parked streets to the Park Commission, municipal ownership of electric lights, municipal ownership of rock crushers and some other matters which will be discussed. Coal. Mine Near SCappoosb. Coal of what is believed to be very good quality and In unlimited quantity was discovered last week on a farm near Scappoose, osned by Dr. B. Blatchford. of this city, i The ledge is three feet in thickness and has been 'traced along a bluff for a dis tance of 300 feet. The deposit is located about 21, miles from the station at Scap poose. Yesterday W. Gerrabrant, who rents the farm from Dr. Blatchford. came to Portland fJid announced that two more ledges have just been discov ered In the same neighborhood. The new veins each, measure three feet In thickness and are separated by a sand stone ledge three feet, thick. Assays show the coal to possess la per cent carbon. 42'4 per cent volatile matter. 7.S per cent water, 4.8 per cent ash. and -4 per cent sulphur. A sampla. of the coal can now be seen at the office of the Portland Trust Company. No arrange ments have yet been made regarding the development of the property. Work Resumed i Tunnel. Work In the Brooklyn sewer tunnel, between Bast Tenth street and the Willamette River on Taggart street, has been resumed now that the water hrs gone down, and will be pushed forva.c to completion. The tunnel Is 16 feet long, and a considerable portion of the work has been done on the stone and brick conduit, which is ten feet in diameter. High water in the Willamette River filled up the tunnel and operations had to be stopped recent ly. Electric lights have been strung through the tunnel and two. gangs of men are at work. The conduit through tho tunnel will probably be completed before the water in the river comes up again. On the other end of the system the men are at work on East Sixteenth street going south on the south branch. It was expected that the entire sewer system would be completed by October, but it will not be finished by that time. The Hniah will come some months later. Delegates Invited.

EX Rice, bridge committee, will submit -an import ant report tonight at tho meeting of the United East Side Push Clubs as to the i . . ..hnM th. Madison bridfre on the present location. They held a long conference yestercay wun i-uy w ginecr Taylor and J. B. C. Lockwood. and made a careful examination of the several sets of plans prepared by Mr. Lockwood The object of the conference was to ascertain if a modern steel bridge can be erected on the present location with the 45O.00O appropriation. With an additional appropriation of J50.000 or 1100.000 an approach may be extended up Hawthorne avenue to umou vfm above all railway tracks. None of the plnn prepared by Mr. Lockwood come within the HSO.OOO appropriation, as they now stand, and these were discussed thoroughly with a view of the modifica tion of the plans so a. bridge can be built for the 8450.000. The result will be given in a written report at the meeting to nisht. Remains Brought to Crrr.

The show has only a slender plot, but that fact does not hinder the performers from providing a large amount of wholesome fun. There are nearly a dozen songs and choruses that are tuneful and pleasing. The work of the Curlts dancing girls is extremely well done, their movements are graceful and their costumes picturesque. The cast is a large one and the parts well taken. Arthur damage. Dave Gaston and Allen Curtis are an excellent trio of a Weber A Fields type and do some excellent low comedy work. Winifred Green as Garnel Heathwood, "the Teddy girl," Is a picture in a cowboy costume and som brero with a pistol belt and a whip. She sings her solo, "Pride of the Prairie," in a captivating manner. Mayme Prager's appearance in a dlrectolre gown was a feature of the show. The opening number is sung by Marguerite La Porte and chorus. It is called "A Lemon in the Garden of Love." A pretty duet Is that sung by Winifred Green and Albert Leonard, "I've Taken Quite a Fancy to You." Dave Gaston and the chorus sing "A Rare Old Bird." Other numbers that pleased the audi ence last night and that are sure to be favorites this week are "Just Because He Couldn't Sing Love Me and the World Is Mine." "Insanity." "What's the Use of Dreaming," "Everyone's in Love with Someone." HUNTER LOST IN WOODS Spends Thirty-eight Hours In Tim ber Without Food or Water. PRIN-EVILLB. Or.. Aug. 24. (Special.) Fire fighters returning from the Paulina Mountains. 50 miles south or this city. tell of a hunter being lost for 38 hours in the timber. Joe Kelly, of Lakeview, started out hunting early Tuesday morn ing and was seen no more until Wednes day evening when the searching party ran across him, his mind almost blank from suffering and his clothing in shreds. He even threatened to shoot his rescuers and started to run away from them, but was too weak and fell to the ground- After being revived Kelly told his res cuers that on Wednesday morning he killed a bear cub and when starting back for camp found he had lost his bearings completely. Becoming alarmed; he swung the cub over his shoulder and started on a run in the direction he supposed the camp to be. After traveling more than half a day In this manner he be came exhausted and dropped the game. Lack of water and the heat caused his mind to wander and at one time the searching party heard him calling and answered him, whereupon he turned and ran the other way. Wednesday evening he ran across the men by accident, hav ing been without food or water 38 hours. PERSONALMENTION. Rev. B. 8 Muckley. pastor of the First Christian Church, returned to Portland yesterday from an outing at Seaside. -T. D.

May Name Nonpartisan Ticket. SOUTH BEND. Waah.. Aug. 24. (Spe cial.) The county campaign In Pacific County is now on in earnest and the 33 men who nave filed their declarations of candidacy are actively canvassing for votes at the primary election. The late exposure of alleged shortages in some of the county offices has excited unusual interest in the campaign and it Is ru mored a convention will be held on the date of the primary when an independent non-partisan ticket will be put before the voters, and that the ticket will in clude no man now In office or In any way connected with county affairs. At the Vaudeville Theaters Orpheum. NOBODY who sees the show at the Orpheum this week need wonder what "advanced" vaudeville means. The bill is uniformly strong- and so varied that every taste will be satis fied. Each act was received with enthusiasm by the large audience at both performances yesterday, and a continuation of last week's capacity business is predicted. The head-line attraction is "A Night on a Houseboat," a sketch full of good singing and witty dialogue, in which nine people appear. It is elaborately staged, the representation of a house boat being perfect. A novelty is the introduction of a searchlight Incidental to the "plot," which is played on the audience. John and Mae Burke have some clever dialogue in their musical com edy act billed as "How Patsy Went to War." John plays the piano In a way that earns him a number of en cores, while Mae sings well and looks ditto. . It didn't take Bertie Herron, "the original minstrel miss," a minute a win her audience. Here is a genuine little comedienne. Her humor is infectious, and she has a line of brand new quips that keep the audience's wits on edge. She changes costume right before the crowd and smears dirty old burnt cork all over her pretty features. Her rep resentation of "Lou Prlmetadter, the minstrel man," would make the or iginal green. Her monologue and songs are all to' the good. Mr. and Mrs. Erwin Connolly ap pear in their own version of "Sweet hearts.'4 and it is a sweet, little senti mental etory beautifully rendered. More than a few brushed away a tear when the playlet was concluded, and the "company" was obliged to respond to a curtain call. Mr. Connelly: Don't say "You and I were boy and girl together." 'Girl and boy" would be the better order. Tumblers and comedy acrobats with out number have appeared In Portland vaudeville houses, but Clark Martinette and Joe Sylvester are really without rivals. The latter "does" falls that would break every bone In an ordi nary man's body, and tumbles off tables and over piles of chairs in a way that must keep his body per petually black and blue. Sylvester in jured himself in his first fall at the mat inee yesterday, but plucklly went through the act as though nothing had happened. A doctor was called and refused to let him go on last night, but he may be able to work today. All over the circuit Martinette and Sylvester are known as the "suicide kids." World and Kingston were held up by the Eugene train wreck and did not arrive for the matinee, but appeared on schedule at the night performance. They sustained their reputation as top notch performers. Alf Grant and Ethel Hoag present a "merry-go-round of music, melody and mirth." As a single-handed entertain er Grant has few equals, or, if he has, fhey have not reached these parts, and Miss Hoag acts as an excellent foil for him. The Orpheum motion pictures wind up the bill. Grand. SO entertaining Is the bill at the Grand this week that the omission of the farcical satire, "Bargain Mad," by Miss Florence Modena, made necessary by the illness of the brilliant young entertainer. does not In any way cripple the show. As always Is the case with the bill at the Grand, one or more numbers may be omitted from the advertised programme and still the patron of this resort will ingly will admit that he has had his money's worth. That is particularly the case this week. Unquestionably the top-notcher at this funmaking factory this week is the per formance of Fagin and Byron (Barney and Henrietta) in their clever and prop erly ti'rmed "An Entertaining Oddity." Their bill is even more entertaining than might be suspected from the space they occupy on the printed programme. Fagln sings exceedingly well, and the medley of National airs. In which his partner is costumed properly, makes a decided hit with the audience. As a novelty enter tainer, Fred Morton came up to all re quirements, and from the start was idol ized by the gallery inhabitants as the man who really knew how to whistle. His performance with Jewsharps was probably the best ever seen in Portland. Among the distinct features of the week's offerings are the vocal efforts of Alice Robinson, who sustains her repu tation as a prima donna. Johnson and Hart 'score a great hit In the manipula tion of hoops which excels anything ever seen In this city. Alf P. James and Kate Prior appear in an intensely Interesting dialogue, "Captain Barnacle's' Courtship," and they present the piece with more than average ability. Fred Bauer sings "By the Old Oaken Bucket, Louise," while the more than usually entertaining pro gramme is concluded with the Granda- scope, displaying "The Glided Fool." nmmm mint, mn n.nhiriAMW .i.nnllu at Woodard, Clarke & Co. ANTI-HUGHES MEN YIELD (Continued From First Page.) offer to take the stump for Taft and Sherman. It is Interesting." said Herbert Par sons, when asked what he thought about It. Timothy L. Woodruff declined to dis cuss the matter at alL The general opinion is that Woodruff. Barnes and the other little bosses, who have been fussing and fuming at the pros pect of having to renominate the Gov ernor, are now In a more uncomfortable and ridiculous position than ever. It is regarded as a high compliment to Mr. Hughes that so much reliance Is to be placed upon him, after he was one of Taft's competitors for the Republican Presidential nomination. That he Is much esteemed by Mr. Taft and his advisors Is self-evident by his selection. It has not yet been announced that Vice-President Fairbanks, or Speaker Cannon, or Sen ators Foraker, La Follette or Knox are going to be looked to for this kind of service. Doubtless each will be concerned to a greater or less extent In carrying his own particular state for Taft, or in help ing to pile up a safe majority. Except In the case of Foraker, these men either control or are closely asso ciated with the machines In their respect ive commonwealths, and their political pre-eminence and right to speak as Re publicans Is unquestioned. Yet It Is not to them, but to Governor Hughes, threatened with political annihil ation by his party machine, that Mr. Taft and his friends turn for help In the sec- tlon where they expect to need the best speakers and the best arguments. At the meeting of the New York State Committee several leaders were heard to say, "We want a Republican for Gov ernor," or "Hughes is no Republican." Marks Hughes as Republican. Now they are willing to admit privately that the Governor has spiked this gun. for a man wno is good enough to be a star campaign orator must be a good enough Republican to run for Governor. "Hughes is at last playing politics In his still-hunt for a renomlnation," de declares one of his bitterest foes. "His latest move. In offering to make speeches. Is an Idea of which even an old stager In the game of politics should not feel ashamed of. "What on earth can we do except re nominate him? From present plans, at the time of the convention he will he on the stump In Ohio. Everything Indicates that the voters will receive him with en thusiasm. And while he is speaking nlehtly for Taft we will not dare to turn him down on the ground that he is not a Republican. "Probably this is Roosevelt's way to indicate what he wants us to do. without the necessity of direct interference. He says in so many words that Hughes Is a good enough Republican for Taft and the National Committee. Ana oy me same course of reasoning it Is easy to deduce that Hughes must necessarily be a good enough Republican for us. Will Clinch Nomination. Samuel S. Koenig, one of the influential leaders of the lower East Side, and an ardent follower of Herbert Parsons, says: "It would look to me as if this offer of Hughes to speak for the National ticket would about clinch his renomlnation. It shows that he i3 not a child when it comes to playing politics, as some people have imagined. "It will make it more difficult for the organization .eaders to say that he is a foe to the Republican organization wnen his offer to come out and stump the coun try in behalf of the ticket has been ac cepted. I feel that his renomlnation is pretty well assured, but we never can tell. "As a matter of fact, the organization here has not. as some people have said, been attacking -the Governor. It has gone about in a businesslike way tb ascertain just how strong the sentiment is." Anti-Hughes Vote Silent. A fact that has embarrassed the lead ers of the opposition Is that, although they",tell o.' thousands of Republicans" who will cut Hughes if he is nominated, they have been unable to induce these selfsame thousands to talk for publica tion. On the other hand, the Hughes Re publicans are aggressive and come out boldly over their own signatures. In ad dition, they have swamped the President, Taft and Hitchcock with letters on the subject. To describe matters tersely, the op position to Hughes is confidential; his support Is loud-voiced and militant. The politicians who scurry down to Oyster Bay come away looking mys terious and refuse to eay a word. If you will promise not to quote them, they are willing to tell you how ter ribly weak Hughes Is, and how bitterly they oppose him. But any effort to ob tain an official statement creates a ter rible scare. "I do not care to be quoted just yet," they say. On the other hand, columns of letters appear in the New York papers every day, the writers of which demand the Governor's renomlnation. And they are well-known men, too. Walter C. Gifford Is past master of the State Grange, an organization com posed of 70,000 farmers. "The senti ment of the -voters is unanimously in favor of the renomlnation of Governor Hughes," he says. "If he is' turned down by the -political bosses, I believe the state will go Democratic, and I be lieve it ought to. I do not believe any' other Republican nominee can be elect ed." What Hughes' Friends Would Do. The Rev. R. Heber Newton, the well known clergyman and author, writes: "So far as I can judge, there are many Republicans who, like myself, will vote for any decent Democrat for Governor If Mr. Hughes Is turned down." Walter H. Page, of New York, is ed itor of the World's Work. "It would be dlsgracaful to the Republican party if it failed to nominate Hughes," he said, "and disgraceful to the voters of the state If they failed to elect him." T. F. Oakes, the ex-president of the Northern Pacific Railroad, is now a New York stockbroker.' Speaking of Hughes, he predicts: "In my opinion, the success or defeat of the Republican party will turn upon his nomination or rejection." Martin E. McClary is an ex-chairman of the Franklin County Republican Committee. "To nominate any other person," he says, "would put New York in the doubtful column so far as the National ticket is concerned, to say nothing of local results." George. S. Tarbell, ex-presldent of the New York State Bar Association, lives at Ithaca. He has canvassed his city care fully, and sums it up in these words: "I believe It to be the opinion of clergy, church, many Democrats, most Independents and the vast majority of Republican voters in this neighborhood that Governor Hughes should be re nominated and would be triumphantly re-elected." John Lord O'Brien, an Assemblyman, of Buffalo, does not mince words in de scribing conditions. "To nominate any other man than Hughes will be inter preted generally as an affront to the Interests of the people at large," he says. "I believe If the machine politicians throw Hughes aside, they will endanger the National ticket," is the warning of Clarence D. Ashley, dean of the New York University Law School. Professor L. L. Danforth, of the New York Homeopathic Medical College, puts it this way: "If the Republicans fail to nominate Hughes, they will surely forfeit the confidence of the best people, not only of the State of New York, but of the whole country. "Failure to renominate Governor Hughes will prove the suicide of the Republican party," says Fred Hovey Allen, clergyman and author. These, Too, Are Outspoken. Here is how Dr. Lyman Abbott states . the case: "The 'Republican problem is to secure as large an independent vote as possible. There Is no candidate who would make eo strong an appeal to the Independent vote as Governor Hughes." Charles S. Aldrich Is a well-known lawyer of Troy. "I know many Repub licans who Intend to vote the Demo cratic state ticket If Governor Hughes Is not renominated," he says. James H. Hyslop, ex-professor at Co lumbia, announces he will vote the straight Democratic ticket if Hughes is turned down. 9 Prices talk at Rosenthal's shoe sale.
