A Chin-ese Twice Arrested. On com plaint of John B. "Warren, first officer of the ship Samaritan, a Chinese named Sam Quong was arrested Sunday night on a. charge of attempted extortion. The Chinese cook of the vessel had deserted, and the master had offered a reward of SCO for apprehension of the runaway, and Warren in some way learned that he could gain some information by inquiring at an Everett-street laundry regarding the missing cook. Here Quong was found, and he tendered his services as an inter preter for the proprietor. Sing Gee, when Warren called. He merely Interpreted Warren's offer of a $25 reward for recov ery of the missing man, which was re jected, as the laundryman refused to di vulge any information for less thanvthe $50 reward offered by the captain. There was no evidence against Quong, and the charge against him was dismissed in the municipal couft, but -a deputy from the United States marshal's office took him in custody on a charge of aiding a China man to land. In violation of existing laws. He was afterwards allowed to go, as the circuit court of appeals had decided that there is no penalty for harboring a de serter from a British ship. iln. Heftt was the Architect. Tnrough an oversight do mention of the architect was made in the full account of the magnificent new Congregational church published In yesterday's Oregon Ian. The credit for the design and the construction of this church edifice is due to Mr. H. J. Hefty, the well-known arch itect. The lines of the Italian-Gothic style, which are so closely followed in the design, impart to the structure an ap pearance of both elegance and quiet taste, and It is the opinion of those fully com petent to pass an opinion on the subject of architectural construction that this is one of the finest and most imposing churches on the coast. This is only one of the handsome edifices that Mr. Hefty has designed in Portland, and with the other fine buildings erected under his direction here this will long stand as a monument to his skill as a successful architect. Chickens Sadlt Neglected. Humane Officer Burke yesterday discovered a sig nal case of the inhuman treatment of a coop of chickens, consigned from Gervals to a local firm. There were 30 in the coop, and they had been so neglected that two were dead, having doubtless been starved to death. In their hunt for something to eat, the remaining chickens had picked every feather from their dead companions. The poor chickens were promptly fed, and ate ravenously. They were much emaci ated by their long fast, but did not appear to be diseased. The firm to which the chickens were consigned refused to receive them, and the humane officer disposed of them to people who agreed to care for them. It Is the purpose of Mr. Burke to mall to various dealers throughout the state copies of the law governing mistreat ment of animals cooped for shipment. Citt Will Pat Probablt. The latest thing learned in regard to the investiga tion before the committee on health and police to ascertain who shall be required to pay the bill for the repairs to the crem atory. Is that City Attorney Giltner has required or permitted the attorneys of the Fertilizing Company, and of Hobklrk & McICenzie to file briefs in regard to the matter for the enlightenment of the com mittee and himself. The majority of the committee say they will not report in favor bT the'eity paying the bill, as they think that either the builders or operators of the crematory should pay It. In this they differ from both these parties, and it Is more than likely in the end that the city, like the girl's father In the old song, "will settle the bill." Four Plumbers Rejected. The board of examination for plumbers completed Its work and adjourned yesterday. In all 37 plumbers were examined, 33 of whom were passed and registered, and four were rejected. There are three more In the city who did not appear for examination, and so cannot be granted a license. The ex aminations have been very searching and thorough, and. as a result, none but per fectly competent plumbers will be entitled to work in this city. Plumbing Inspector Floyd says it seems hard to interfere with any one in his efforts to make a living, but the work of a plumber is so important. In regard to the health of Che public, that no one should be permitted to have charge of such work unless he Is well informed. Water Tunr Are Missing. People who are enjoying the blessing of pure Bull Run water take it as a matter of course and do not know what they are missing since it is substituted for Willamette wa ter. They have used muddy Willamette water many times, but seldom -when it was so muddy as it now is. It is fairly thick, and would leave a coating of clay on one's stomach as rich as the soil on Bauvle's Island, The water committee should fill a few jars with Willamette wa ter and some with Bull Run water, and display them in some show-window Just to show people the difference. Revivals a Success. The revival ser vices at the Taylor-street Methodist church have entered upon the second week. Last night the church was filled with people. Dr. Locke preached an earn est sermon on "Sin Will Out." It was a discussion of the great questions of sin and conscience. After the short sermon 10 people arose when the invitation was given, and afterward -went Into the inquiry room. The subject for this evening will be "The Homesick Soul." Two New" Italian Societies. The Ital ian Mutual Aid Society yesterday filed articles of incorporation with the county clerk. Incorporators, Angelo Cuneo, Gul seppe Cereghino and Andrew Traverso. The revenue is to be derived from dues and fines. Articles of Incorporation of the Socleta dl Mutuo Socorso Delia Compagnla Bersaglieri -italianl were filed yesterday in the office of the county clerk. It. Is a fraternal organization. Incorporators, G. LanduccI, F. Allori and G. Stasi. None will hold strength like Price's Bak ing powder, for it alcne is absolutely pur". Cruel Woman in Jail. Mrs. Esther Sachs, the woman fined J50 Saturdav for cruel treatment of her stepson, has "been cent to the county jail to serve out her time. She was unable to raise the money and none of her friends would come to her rescue. Her stepson Is In charge of the Boys' & Girls' Aid Society, and. being cleanly and comfortably clad, is greatly pleased with his new surroundings. Officers Elected. The Oregon Camera Club met last night and elected A. An derson, president; H. Gardsmeth, vice president: John A. Hertzman. secretary; W. H. Chapln. treasurer. A constitution and by-laws were adopted, and a lantern slide exhibition and lecture were decided upon for the near future.

Letters have been received in Portland in relation to the death of Benjamin M. Cobb, a -well"-known rancher, on his ranch at Summer Lake, Lake county, December 1. They clear up all doubt as to the manner In which death ensued, and show that It was purely due to accident. A coroner's jury investigated the matter, and brought In a verdict in accordance with the facts. First reports of the affair were meager and in adequate, and were substantially to the effect that there were suspicious circum stances connected with the death. These suspicions, it seems, were not complimen tary to Mrs. Cobb, and a man named Dorn, who is her cousin. The investiga tion of the coroner's jury was sufficient to show that they "were wholly without warrant, and that Mrs. Dorn and all oth ers in any way connected with the unfor tunate affair did all that bereaved rela tives should do for the disposal of the remains and for prompt inquiry into the manner In which death was brought about. Mr. Wm. Bradford, a reputable citizen of Lakevlew, -writes to Mr. R. C. Crosby, of this city, that "it is the almost uni versal belief In this community that Mr. Cobb came to his end by the accidental discharge of a gun- In his own hands. His own family and most intimate friends con cur in this without a dissenting voice." Down the Willamette. Major Post, United States engineers, -who left last Wednesday for Eugene to make a trip of Inspection down the Willamette, has re turned. He came from Eugene down to Corvallis on the snag-puller, and stayed there all night- The survey party sent out some time since is now at Corvallis, hav ing completed the survey from Eugene to that point. It will probably be called in in a few days, as the river Is at too high a stage to allow of the survey being suc cessfully prosecuted at present. At Cor vallis, Major Post was joined by the light house inspector. Captain Farenholt,"and they came from there down on the Wm. M. Hoag, making the best inspection of the river practicable in order to inform themselves as to needed appropriations for Improvements, stake lights, etc. It is not probable that many lights will be needed above Oregon City, as most of the boating is done there in the daytime. Major Post will probably make another trip down the river when the water goes down and the bars are In sight. Xew Vagranct Law in Force. In the municipal court yesterday the first case under the new vagrancy law was tried, resulting in James Murphy being found guilty and sentenced to 60 days' imprison ment. Murphy recently came to Portland from Michigan and, being unable to find employment,. put in most of his time in and about saloons. After being sentenced, he was given the privilege of leaving the city at once, in lieu of serving time, and the opportunity was accepted. The new vagrant law is very sweeping, and takes in a class of people who, while having money, If not engaged in legitimate em ployment may be arrested and compelled to do time as city prisoners on the corpora tion rock-pile. Many Cedar Posts. Some 200 cedar posts for the Columbia Telephone Com pany are being landed at the foot of Davis street by the American Bridge & Con tract Company. The poles are brought to the place in a raft, and by means of a derrick are hoisted from the river and placed on the vehicles, which are to dis tribute them around town. The easy man ner in which these sticks, which weigh about two tons each, are handled, at tracts a constant crowd of spectators. New beginners should use half the quantity of Dr. Price's to do the same work of any other baking powder. It's absolutely pure. An Insane Woman. Mary Mathy, a young woman, 25 years of age, was arrest ed at Linnton yesterday, at the residence of her parents, by Deputy Sheriff Emanuel Meyer, for insanity. She has been once before In the asylum. While she is quite violent, the woman accompanied the dep uty without much trouble. She talks loud ly, and takes off and puts on her clothing, and Is very incoherent In her utterances. "She Tvas returned to the asylum last night by Sheriff Sears. The "Messiah." The management have ordered 23 salamanders, which. In connec tion with the stoves, will be kept burning at the Armory today and tomorrow, so that everybody attending the production of the "Messiah " on Wednesday evening at the Armory will enjoy every comfort. The advance sale is the largest of the nature ever held here, and everything fore bodes a jam at the Armory Wednesday evening. Officers Installed.

The high water prevents effort toward getting the east side pontoon of the Stark-street ferry repaired for the present, and the John L. Stephens is doing the work. The number crossing is astonish ing. The limit that boat is allowed to carry Is constantly reached, and some are left over. An amusing incident occurred yesterday evening. A lady came from the West Side, and on reaching East Water and East Washington streets, she began to look around in every direction. She finally astonished a gentleman by asking. "Where is the free street-car? I was told tftat a free street-car connected with the free ferry, and made trips every few min utes." She was told there was no free street-car service, but she still Insisted there was. and got on the car whichruns toEast Water. She probably had an in terview with the conductor on the sub ject later. Annnnl Reunion and RolI-Call. The annual reunion and roll-call of the East Side Y. M. C. A. took place last night In the new building, and was largely at tended. Mr. A. L. Keenan presided, and stated the object of the meeting. The roll of membership was then called, and each member called rose and stated how long he had been a member, and what his part of the work had been. All '03 members were Invited to rise, after which Mr. John E. Boynton delievered an ad dress of welcome, which was responded to by James E. McGowan. Prayer was then offered, which was followed by re freshments. After refreshments had been furnished, came the toasts and responses. Chauncey Case responded to "Our Field." F. A. Baker explained how the "Social Work" Is carried on. Fred Burns discussed "Physical Work." and called attention to the advantages of the gym nasium. A. L. Keonan told who the "Friends of the Association" are, and declared they are the pastors of the churches. The Oregonlan, the ladies' aux iliary. Mrs. R, L. Hawthorne and others. Mr. John Gwilt said the asssociation is "Our Home," and explained why it Is so called. Secretary Johnson told what "Our Expectations" are for the coming year. He said they are to pay all debts and then increase the membership by 100 new members by April, and outlined a plan for this work, to be entered on at once. James A. Dummett made an ex cellent talk on the work. Professor R. H. Thomas, of the Portsmouth school, was present, and responded briefly with ap propriate remarks. After having spent a pleasant evening, the meeting closed by clasping hands and singing "Blest Be tho Ties." Contract Relet. The contract for the reconstruction of the roadway on Grand avenue, between East Stark and East Oak street, has been relet to F. J. Stevens. The work consists in raising the present structure so as to conform to the new grade of the street. Some new timbers may be required in place of those found decayed, as the bridge has stood for a number of years. On ac count of the storm the other contractors on the avenue stopped work. Miscellaneous Notes. The Sandy river Is swollen to a torrent by the late storm. The officers of Brooklyn Lodge, A. O. U. W., will be installed this evening. Mr. J. G. Stephens, a well-known citi zen of Pleasant Home, left last week for Ohio on a visit to his father. The boys' class In athletics has been suc cessfully organized at the East Side Y. M. C. A.

R., of Pleasant Home, had an old-fashioned bean bake Saturday night in the Stephens hall. The officers for the ensuing term were installed and the evening was spent afterwards In short addresses and other exercises, clos ing with a fine repast of baked beans. Winona lodge tribe. Improved Order of Red Men, in response to an invitation from Modoc on the West Side, held a short session last night and went to the Modoc wigwam, where the visitors re ceived a warm -welcome and were "filled up" on corn and venison in abundance. LIGHTS FOR MARINERS. Estimate for Construction, at Vari ous Points in the Northwest. The preliminary annual report of the lighthouse board to the secretary of the treasury has been received by Major Post, engineer of this lighthouse district. Among the estimates for general appro priations are the following for the North west coast: For establishment of a first-order light on North Head, Cape Disappointment, sea coast of Washington, in addition to the $23,000 appropriated in the sundry civil appropriation act approved August 18, 1894, by which a contract therefor not ex ceeding 550,000 was authorized, the esti mate is $25,000. The present light at Cape Dissappoint ment is inadequate. It is proposed to es tablish a first-order light at North Head and reduce that at Cape Disappointment to the fourth order. When the proposed lights which are being constructed at Gray's harbor and Destruction Island are completed It will only need the proposed light at North Head to finish the light ing of the coast from Cape Flattery to Tillamook rock with first-order lights. The board is planning to contract as au thorized, and the whole amount will be needed before the end of the coming fiscal year. For establishing beacon or post lights and buoys at 23 different points on the Willamette river between the cities of Salem and Portland, Or., the estimate is $5000. These post lights are much needed, as they can be seen, except in dense fog, at a distance of 1C0 yards or more, and pilots want them in case of a new departure. For completing the light and fog-signal station at Gray's harbor. Wash., the es timate is $39,500. By act approved July 7, 1BS4, $15,500 was appropriated for a light at Gray's harbor. By the act of March 3. 1893, $20,000 addi tional was appropriated for establishing a first-class light and fog signal here, and authority was given to contract to an amount not exceeding $75,000 therefor. An appropriation of $39,500 is now needed for this purpose in addition to the $35,500 previously appropriated. The establish ment of this light at a cost not to exceed $73,000 was authorized by the act of Feb ruary 15, 1S93. For re-establishing the fog signal at Cape Flattery light-rtatlon upon a new site, the estimate is $17,000. It is found that the fog signal at this important station will be much more ef fective as an aid to mariners if removed to West island. The change would make it necessary to build new structures for accommodation of the signal and a new dwelling for the keeper. For establishing a fog signal at Point No Point light-station, Puget sound. Wash., the estlniate Is $6000. The fog bell at this station Is Insuf ficient. A first-class fog signal, actuated by steam or compressed air, is needed. For constructing, equipping and out fitting a steam lightship, with steam fog signal, to be established at or near Uma tilla reef, at the Flattery rocks, off the Straits of Fuca, Wash., the estimate is $50,000. The coast from this reef to Tatoosh island is full of rocky islets and sub merged dange.-s. The currents are rapid and uncertain. The steamship Michigan was wrecked on this reef In January, 1S93. It is one of the most dangerous points on the coast. None is so cheap to use as Dr. Price's Baking Powder, as it alone is absolutely purft- HOTEL ARRIVALS. THE PORTLAND.

TO AMEND MINING LAWS TJc Law Proposed, fey- tke Calif erala. Axseci&tieH. Copies of a bill amending the mining laws, framed by the California State Miners' Association, for presentation to congress have recently leen received in this city. The proposed law Is designed to affect California only, but it is of special interest In Oregon. The same questions relative to mineral patents in railroad lands and others of a kindred nature are disposed of. The provisions of the bill take In the entire state of California and affect 21,000,000 acres of unpatented lands. It provides for the appointment by the president of three commissioners for Jhe whole state. They are all required to be residents of California, one at least must be a miner and not more than two shall be of the same political party. Their compensation Is not to exceed $10 a day and their traveling expenses. The com missioners are to examine all railroad grant lands, determine their agricultural or mineral character, and are to have power to summon witnesses and adminis ter oaths a power not possessed by the registers and receivers of the land office. The decision of a majority of the com missioners is to control in the classifica tion of lands. In case of contest or pro test, a hearing is to be held before the district receiver and register. An appeal will lie to the commissioner of the gen eral land office, and from him to the sec retary of the interior. The district attor ney from the judicial district in which contested land is situated is required to defend the interests of the United States, and for such service is allowed $15 for each day's work before the register and re ceiver. In case there shall be no protest against classification, the approval of the secretary of the interior will be final, except in case of fraud, and all plats and records of the general and local land of fice are to be made to conform tosuch classification. All costs of contests are to be paid by the unsuccessful party. An important provision of the bill de fines mineral lands as relating to railroad grants. This section reads: "That all unpatented lands in said grants be classified and taken to be min eral lands under this act which prior to the passage of this act have been located or patented as mineral lands, or shall have, or probably will have, a market value by reason of the minerals which they contain, or which show such indica tions or deposits of valuable minerals as would Induce a miner to spend his time or money upon them, with the reasonable expectation of finding mineral in paying quantities; or which, from their geological formation, or location in a well-defined mineral belt, or their situation or pro pinquity or relation to known mineral lands, are or probably will be valuable for the mineral therein; and all these mat ters shall be considered by the commis sioners in determining the mineral or non-mineral character of such lands and in classifying the same. The classifica tion herein provided for shall be by sec tions where the lands have been surveyed, unless there are such differences In the situation or character of different parts of the same section as, in the opinion of tho commissioners, to require its classification by legal subdivisions. If the lands are not surveyed, classification shall be made by tracts of such extent and designated by such natural or artificial boundaries to identify them as the commissioners may determine. Where mining locations have een heretofore made or patents issued for mining ground In any section of land this shall be taken as prima facie evidence that the 40-acre subdivision with in which it is located is mineral land; provided, that the word "mineral," where it appears in this act, shall not be held to Include iron or coal; and provided fur ther, that he examination and classifica tion of lands hereby authorized shall be made without reference or regard to any previous examination or report or classi fication thereof."

The council this evening instructed the city attorney to begin suit in the circuit court at Port land for the forfeiture of the franchise of the East Side Railway Company in this city. This action is the outgrowth of the trouble in collecting the amount due from the company as Its share of the ex pense of paving Main street, in which its tracks are laid. The franchise granted the company expressly provided that the company should stand such expense when ever the street should be Improved. And, according to the statement made by the city attorney, the members of the com pany would now pay that bill, if they were in charge of the read. But the road is in the hands of a receiver, by application of the Northwest General Electric Company, which holds a mortgage on the property, and the receiver and mortgagee expressed a preference to have the company's fran chise in this city forfeited rather than pay the claim, amounting to about $6000, and the United States court, which now OUR GREAT SAKE Third A Clean Stock, s Article in The House Reduced. Econom ical Pur chasers Delineator and Butterick's controls the road, has consented to for feiture proceedings as the only alterna tive. A resolution previously passed by the council appropriated $7200 to be put Into the hands of trustees and used in making the final payment on the Main-street pav ing contract and another resolution ap propriating J24i 27, which was the balance due according to the report of the city engineer, was finally passed this evening in full settlement of the matter. In ' the Malcolm P. Bradley damage case against Clackamas county, a change of venue to Multnomah county was grant ed this morning on the ground that Clack amas county jurors, necessarily being tax payers, would be prejudiced against the plaintiff in this suit. At first It was pro posed to try the case in Washington county, but objection was made to that because Judge McBride, who would pre side there, is also a taxpayer in this county. Circuit court took a recess till Wednesday. All the water-wheels In the city, except those of the electric power-house, the cement mill and the city pumping sta tion, have stopped and the factories are silent tonight. The high water is to blame for it. The river rose above the 24-foot mark below the falls today, but it seems to have reached its limit, and is ex pected to fall tomorrow. Just such emer gencies as this will be amply provided for when the new power-house shall be in operation. At the bluff, halt way between this city and the United States hatchery, a land slide has covered the wagon road to a depth of about six feet for a distance of 40 yards. The county court viewed the slide today and authorized the supervisor to reopen the road. The board of trade held a regular meet ing this evening, but postponed the an nual election of officers till next month. Captain J. W. Ganong, who recently moved from this city to Portland, has resigned the captaincy of company F. The resignation has been accepted, and only the formal turning over of the prop erty to First Lieutenant F. S. Kelly re mains to be done to complete the transaction. w tGc f7 J?& "Lj "ill Pi iffllf Vssm. It's a Qomfort To be well-equipped with a warm over coat. There are several varieties of win ter weather.
