TESTFOB "WOMEN
IN THE-BDX" LAW
Turn Halle Management Will
Bring Action in Courts
to Decide Matter.
POLICE RAID THE RESORT
RepecUble Women Are Caught In
the Dragnet and Victims De
clare Their Intention to
Fight to the Finish.
The ordinance recently passed by the
City Council which provides for the
exclusion of women from saloons Is to
be tested much sooner than expected,
and this contingency was brought
bout by the raiding of the Turn Halle
Cafe by Patrolman W. Fuller, a new
man on the police force, yesterday af
ternoon. Charles Klrchner. one of the pro
prietors of the resort at Fourth and
Yamhill, and five women patrons of the
place were placed under arrest by the
newly appointed officer, who entered
the resort and finding- the women there
decided to act upon what he construed
to be his duty, beveral women were
present, but the officer beinjr alone,
despite his threat to use his Run, was
unable to prevent them from leaving;
before making1 the arrest.
Case Will Be Contested.
Mr. Klrchner says that his cafe com
piles with all of the provisions of the
city ordinance, and that the arrest is
totally without warrant. He further
more -contends that the police officer
w ho made tho arrest had absolutely no
rtftht to interfere with his business,
and that he will contest the case to the
limit. It Is also possible that the pro
prietor will file charges against the
officer as soon as the case has been
decided by the courts.
The Turn Halle has been operated
for above 20 years and has frequently
been In trouble with the police. It Is
known as a resort for theater-goers.
The new ordinance Is said to be very
stringent In its wording and it is pre
sumed that upon Its wording the offi
cer took it upon himself to act, for it
was generally admitted at police head
quarters that he had received no orders
to make any arrests in the case of the
resort mentioned.

BUTTER MARKET IN PERIL
Dr. Withy-combe Sonnds Warning to
Orefron farm must take care lest
Eastern competitors crowd them out
of their butter market at horns, says
Dr. James Wlthycombe. director of the
experiment station of tha State Agri
cultural Colleua. The danger Ilea In
Impairment of the cream quality that
goes Into the butter. The cream la
held ao Ions that It becomes stale be

posed to sun In shipment, until fer
mentation and almost putrefaction
hare robbed it of Its flrst-claas quality.
Increasing; quantities of Minnesota
butter are coming; Into the Oregron
market, on acconut of the Impaired
grade of the Oregon product. The
Minnesota market Is about cents a
pound under that of this region, and.
as the Minnesota butter can be laid
down here at a cost of between 1 and
2 cents a pound, there Is a margin of
4 or S cents a pound for admission of
the outside product.
Dr. Wlthycombe discussed this mat
ter for publication last nlgh with
some reluctance. He said that he did
not wish to utter sentiments that
might sound to many persons pessi
mistic or sensational. lie remarked,
however, that he felt It his duty to
make known the alarm that is already
felt by creamery men and others who
behold the growing Importations of
outside butter.
"Large part of our butter." said he,
"does not reach the standard of 11 and
15 years ago, when farmers brought
their whole milk to the creameries and
the cream was worked up into butter
at once. Our dairy Industry has made
progress In many directions in that
time, but It Is menaced now by a very
serious danger.
'The cream la kept too long on the
farm. It is not properly cooled and

the Willamette Valley are cans of

It Isn't first-class, and can't be sold

"We have laeai oairy conamons in

Better care of cream on the farm is

WANTS FIRE PROTECTION
Xorth Alblns Club Starts Campaign
for Engine-House.
With the same persistency that the
North Alblna Push Club pursued the
fire-hydrant Investigation and discov
ered SO that were rusting on a back
street in Portland, the club has started
a campaign for a fire-station and a fire
engine to protect the growing district.
At the last meting of the club a com
mittee composed of 12 men was ap
pointed to start the movement for fire
protection, with instructions not to
cease labor until success can be re
ported. At the last meeting of the club J. TL
Nolta read from the report of allow
ances made for fire protection, in the
different portiona of the city. North
Alblna fire station Is mentioned, but
the place for the appropriation was left
vacant, and this vacancy Is what caused
the movement. Councilman Vaughn was
present and promised his co-operation.
Mayor Lane, who also was a guest of
the club, commended the energy of the
organization. North Alblna has a small
fire house built on Alblna avenue at the
expense of the property-owners and
supplied with a hose-wagon. The peo
ple Insist that a fire engine fully equip
ped should be placed in that district,
and point out that several million dol

made and more are In progress.

ORIENTALS ARE MARRIED BY
' JUSTICE BELL.
Chinese Xnptials That Were Post
poned Because of San Francisco
Disaster Celebrated.
In San Francisco, before the great
dlsrter, began the romance of Hong
T'.ng and Ling Sing that culminated
yesterday In their marriage by Justice
BelL The ceremony waa witnessed by
half a dozen countrymen and several
attaches of the court.
Attired In the latest of Oriental fash
ions, her smooth-combed tresses re
splendent with many quaint and, curi
ous ornaments, the unblushing 'bride
accompanied the groom to the County
Clerk'a office, where they secured a li
cense, and then went with him to
Justice Bell's office. She wore no rosea,
but the smile was there.
The groom, one of the non-progressive
Chinese who refuses to part with
his queue, had the long black braid
neatly decorated with black and white
bows. In his hand he carried email
pieces of red paper, his friends doing
likewise, which were scattered along
the street to the Justice's office, a sym
bol or token of good will toward all
men, and a hope for good luck in the
future.
With the aid of an Interpreter, they
answered the questions prescribed by
law, and at the conclusion of the cere
mony, the groom distributed cigars
throughout the building. He produced
a big handful of shining gold pieces,
and seemed greatly astonished to learn
that the costs were only nominal.
Hong Ting and his bride had com
pleted arrangements to be married in
San Francisco when the disaster oc
curred. She came to Portland and he
followed as soon as possible. Tonight
In Second street the Oriental marriage
ceremony will be performed by regular
priests, but both the bride and groom
insisted on being married according to
the American laws.
It is one of the very few cases In
local records where Chinese have
adopted the American custom of mar
rying. Prominent Chinese, however,
declare that future marriages in this
city will be performed according to the
American custom.
A strange wedding, perhaps the only
known case on record, of an inter-marriage
of the two races, was performed
Monday by Judge Gantenbeln, who
united In marriage a Chinese and an.
Indian squaw. Chinese, as a rule, are
very unfriendly to Indians, almost as
much so as they are to negroes.
WILL PLAY IN AUSTRALIA
"The Clansman" to Make Six
Months' Visit Next Tear.
George H. Brennan, manager of "The
Clansman" Company coming to the Heilig
Theater next week, has concluded ar
rangements with Director Williamson, of
the Melbourne and Sydney theaters to
play "The Clansman" in Australia in the
Summer of 1909. The original company
now touring the Pacific Coast will be
taken across for a tour of the Australian
cities of six months' duration and includ
ing also visits to Hawaii, New Zealand,
Manila and Hongkong.
Director Williamson states in a recent
letter to "The Clansman's" manager that
Australia, as he styles It, is "America
crazy" since the visit of the battleship
fleet. He says that the Anglo-Japanese
alliance is Intensely unpopular with the
Australians, and he thinks It would re
quire but one or two more disagreeable
incidents like that alliance to. cause the
Australians to break with the old coun
try and Join hands with ours. .
As "The Clansman" is the champion of
white supremacy and as the Australians
above all things desire a "white Pacific."
Its popularity on the other side may eas
ily be guessed at. "I can assure The
Clansman.' " concludes Director William
son, "of a magnificent reception in Aus
tralia and a highly profitable visit."

saloons, believing that It Is wrong In
prlnciplo and contrary to the spirit of
the ordinance recently passed by the
Council forbidding women to enter sa
loons for the purpose of drinking.
"I positively will not sign any license
for restaurants to be Installed In sa
loons," said Councilman Cottel. , "I will
fight these applications, because I do
not believe It Is right to grant licenses
to persons who wish to put In little
eating-houses Just to avoid the strin
gent provisions of the ordinance aimed
to keep women out of saloons. I feared
all the time that. If the measure was
passed, it would lead to a large In
crease in restaurants, as to serve meals
Is the only means of avoiding the pro
visions. The law is virtually tho same
as that proposed some time ago by
Councilman Driscoll. I said at the time
that I suspected something wrong with
any reform measure to be fathered by
Mr. Driscoll."
Tomorrow afternoon at 1 o'clock Is
the last moment of gTace for saloon
keepers. By that hour tbey must have
their licenses or It will be up to the
police to close the saloons. While
licenses are supposed to be taken out
on the first day of each quarter, the
city by a custom aliowa the proprietors
to run until ten days thereafter. Be
cause of the stringent features of the
ordinance barring women from saloons.
Borne of the' proprietors feared to take
out their licenses, thinking that it
would ruin their business. Less than
one-half of the licenses have been re
newed as yet. The saloohkeepers are
endeavoring to find a means to escape
the drastic terms of the Taw, which is
now being enforced by the police.
A number of saloonkeepers have been
cited to appear before the liquor license
committee of the Council at Its meet
ing to be held next Monday afternoon
at 8 o'clock to show cause why their
licenses should not be revoked. It has
been reported to the committee that the
West Coast Oyster House, a Seventh
street resort. Is still conducted by Ed
Johnson, whose license was revoked
some months ago. At that time John
eon swore that he had quit the busi
ness, and implored the committee to
transfer the liquor license to Ed Ken
nedy, which was done. Councilman
Cottel. however, while passing the re
sort recently, saw Johnson's name on
the window In large letters as the pro
prietor. License Inspector Hutchinson,
when questioned by Dr. Cottel, said that
Johnson pays for the license renewals
each quarter, and that Kennedy ap
pears to have little to do with the
business of the establishment. It Is
also charged that there have been
numerous violations of the liquor laws
at the plaoe, and a peculiar feature of
the affair Is that the police have never
been able to detect any violations. It
is likely Johnson and Kennedy will be
cited to appear and explain matters.
REJECTS CHANGED TERMS
Portland Firm Abandons Irrigation
Contract in Montana.
WASHINGTON, Oct. 8. Tha contract
of the Pacific Coast Construction Com
pany, of Portland, for construction of a
dam on the Lower Yellowstone irrigation
project in Montana, has been suspended
and the Reclamation Service has been
authorized to complete the work by force
account. This action was taken as a re
sult of the refusal of the contractors to
complete the work in ' accordance with
the terms of the contract, largely In the
matter of time.
H. S. Huson, president of the Padflo
Coast Construction Company, said last
night that after the contract had been
closed for the construction of the dam
referred to in the above dispatch, the
Government notified his company that
steel sheet piling was to be substituted
for wood, and that no allowance would
be made for the difference in cost of
material, also that no allowance would
be made In the time limit In which the
work was to have been completed.
Owing to the coming stage of water In
the stream preventing the handling of
the work in the time originally figured
on, Mr. Huson said his company was un
willing to undertake the work on the new
conditions and so notified the authori
ties In Washington. Shortly after this
notice his company received advices that
the contract was abrogated by the Gov
ernment. FLEET READY FOR JAPAN

A POLICEMAN'S LOT
Hay Ba a Happy One After Alt
An m. Ex. Chief of Police found an
easy and safe way out of the ills caused
by coffee. He says:
"I suffered Intensely from heart trou
ble and nervousness for five years, and,
though treated by some of the best
physicians In this city, did not get per
manent relief until I changed from
coffee to Postum.
"'A friend of my family was visiting
at our house and, seeing my condition,
insisted that coffee was at the bottom
of my trouble. I confess I was skep
tical' but promised to try Postum In
place of coffee.
"It was nearly three weeks before I
noticed much of any change, as my case
was a bad one. Then I saw that my
nervousness was gradually disappear
ing. A little later I was able to sleep
a part of the night on my left side,
something I had been unable to do for
5 years at least.
"I kept on using Postum, and the
result is, so far as heart trouble and
nervousness are concerned, I am a well
man.
"The best proof la that I am writing
this with my own hand, a thing I was
unable to do for several years prior to
the change from coffee to Postum."
