This is the main Store in Portland Being connected with it enables us to buy in car lots, thereby saving in price and getting goods of best quality. Calef Bros., Portland, have the reputation of sell ing the best goods at the most reasonable price of any store in Portland. They are in the Low Rent District And arc very conservative, thereby bringing their ex penses down to a minimum. We buy for the St. Johns Store at exactly the same prices the main store does, and we sell for the same low price, Wc guarantee satisfaction, rectify any errors and we sell niost'of the furniture that is bought in St. Johns. THESE ARE Wc have just re ceived another car of Dining Tables from Michigan. Remember Calef Bros, Opposite P. O. Local News.

There is so much bad in the best of us And so much good in the worst of us That it is not charitable in any1 of us To talk about the rest of us. Mason & Urban our hollow block makers have secured the contract to furnish blocks for n flue $3,000 residence in Rose City Park. Burnett, who will pitch the open lug game for Albina tomorrow against the Apostles, comes highly recommended. He was With Wat erloo in the Iowa league and has a mean breaking curve and speed. Weed will attend to the receiving for Albina. Karlc D. Walker has opened an other cigar stand in front of Ma goon's saloon and will operate both stands. Karl is a successful cigar dealer and keeps a flue line of cigars, tobaccos, pipes and smokers supplies on hand. He also carries a fine line of box candies. Miss Stella Campling was down from Camas, Wash., where she is teaching school and spent Sunday with the home folks. She made the trip on the North Bank road When trains run more frequently as tucy will when the road is com pleted and in good order, it will be possible for her to leave her school Friday evening ami return Monday morning. U. T. I.vggett tins succeeded it getting the commissioners to im prove Richmond street down to the city dock. This street is the old county road and Mr. Lcggctt has been working with the- commission crs for a long time to get them to have this work done. They in structcd bur genial Roadmaster Simmons to do this work soon as possible and work was commenced Tuesday. Dr. Ben h. Nordeu, candidate for county coroner, visited St. Johns this week in the interest of his candidacy for the republican nomination. Dr. Nordeu was horn in Portland 31 years ago and is a practising physician in his home city. He met many of his old friends who feci confident of his election, ns they feel that the time has arrived when the coroner a office should be filled by n phy siciuu. W. B. Kvaus, who has been cm ploycu Mil the cordage works In Portland, met with a very painful accident Wednesday of last week. While at work a steel bar weighing several hundred pounds dropped upon the great toe of his left foot and mashed nil of it off that came under the bar. Brother Kvaus is obliged to go with a flat wheel since, and it is n great inconven ience, we know how it is aud he has our sympathy. Mr. Griffiths with D. R. Norton, met with quite a painful accident last week. He, with others, was moving the piano in Ulckucr's hall from the floor to the stage, and in some unaccountable manner the ilano was allowed to topple over on lim. It preserved the piano from injury but it was rather hard on Mr. Griffiths aud laid him up for several days. If this would hap pen to some of the piano contor tionists we have been compelled to listen to it would be a blessing to humanity, but to come to an indus trious young man like Mr. Griffiths seems the irony of fate. We are glad to see lihii out at his post of duty again, however. You couldn't keep some people down if you put house on them. ' Some one or more, and we think it is more, persons, who have no regard for the seventh command ment nor yet for the laws of the laud and of the city have been in the habit of entering the banquet hall of the Odd Fellow's lodge aud stealing all they could put their hands on that is good to cat. At the recent basket social they stole two or three or more baskets, aud Monday night of this week they went iuto the banquet hall after the guests had departed aud car ried off a large number of oranges, some pies, a lot of cake aud other eatables which did not leloug to them. Such contemptible sneak thieves should be taken over a bar rel face dowu, their auatomies cul tivated with a leather strap uutil they would be compelled to eat standing for a mouth. J. E. Brink, of St. Johns, who is well known here, was in the city the first of the week in company with C. A. Monroe aud I,. P. Bran stetter of Ferndale, Cal., and are looking over the field with the idea of moving their bottling and can ning factory to Hood River, aud will consolidate with the Hood Riv er Cider Vinegar Co., if additional stock can be secured here. The gentlemen appeared before the Commercial club Tuesday evening and bad a sample of the champagne cider manufactured by Mr, Monroe in California, and it was an excel lent article. They have made arrangements with Mr. Calkins to consolidate with him and add the bottling and canning machinery to the already complete vinegar plant, firovided 95000 additional is secured n cash for a working capital.

The members of the Christian church nre building a temporary house of worship on their lot near the Baptist church. This will save them their rent, vhich they can devote to swelling the building fund for a fine structure. They had commenced to make prepara tions to build when the hard times scare came ou and they hesitated to do anything and concluded to put up this house until after the presi dential election, when matters be came settled and then to build u permanent place of worshiped. The Artisans gave an entertain ment in the Bickuer hall Monday evening which was a very nice musical, aud literary event. It was the work of the Goodnough con cert troupe and was spoken of very highly by those who were preseut. The Artisans have the name everywhere of giving the best there is going. In our old home town we enjoyed mauy delightful evenings with the Artisans and we shall make it our pleasure to attend their meetings here ofteuer in the future. It was impossible for us to attend this entcrtaiument, though we very much desired to do so. The Fraternal Brotherhood is going the pace. Last Friday night this lodge was visited by State Manager F. E. Taylor and tonight it gives a big dance. The great event of the month however, will be on the 24th when a large delega tion from the Portlaud, Sellwood and Oregon City lodges will assist at a big initiation. Twenty-five candidates are expected to ride the goat at this time. The drill team of Portland lodge No. 209 is ex pected to be in attendance aud to put on the initiatory work, Gus C.

We met our good friend Sam Downey on the street the other day and were somewhat amused at the way he was scoring the coun cil for their late ordinance in re gard to the relaying the water pipes. Sam seemed to be in an unpleasant frame of mind about it nud could sec no way out ot tuc ouiicuiiy. He would rather that the water company should go ou in their own unwarranted way ol slamming tlie water pipes down any old way than to have the council take this action. Sam was dressed up in a nice, clean suit of blue denim overalls from head to foot and it made him look fine, just like a la boring mail. Wc never saw Sam ookiug better and we wondered why he was so disconsolate, ami it never occurred to us until yesterday, when another, a good friend of us both whispered that Sain had been jetting ou tlie election with that Hewitt boy, (H. S) and lost all lis good clothes, his bttnday suit, lis newly dyed suit, in fact all the clothes Sam had but the overalls, aud he had to wear them until he could get some others made, We don't blame Sam for kicking this time. Any old council that would put us in the hole like that wc would want cashiered, sandpapered, varnished with tar, rolled in a feather bed ami rode out of town ou a bucking broncho. Our sym pathy is with you Sam if it costs us dollar. No. 9047.
