CITY NEWS IN BRIEF
MARQUAM GRAND HaOnee and evening,
"AmyRobsart."
COEDKArS THEATER (Washington street)
"Human Hearts."
A Nbwspapse "Ruction." A noisy
crowd about The Oregonian building at
tracted a cood deal of attention yesterday
afternoon. A simple statement will show
-what It was all about. The Evening Tele
gram is sold at the office to boys who -wish
to sell It on the streets. Great numbers
at boys have been taking- out more cop es
han the market would take, and as a
consequence hundreds of copies were re
turned unsold. The management of The
Telegram, wishing to put a stop to the
excessive waste of paper, explained to the
boys that they should not take out so
many copies, but only as many as they
conld expect to sell; and then If they
should sell out and want more, they could
return to the office and get them. The
price to the boys was 2 cents a copy,
as heretofore; but papers would not be
taken back, and In order to guard them
against loss the boys were advised to take
fewer papers. So they resolved .not to take
any, which was quite right; but when the
carriers came out with bundles of papers
for delivery to subscribers, the boys, In
stigated by meddlesome and mischief-making
grown persons, eet upon the carriers,
.and these grown persons egged them on
to beat the carriers and tear tip their pa
pers, and even assisted, when others went
to protect them. This is the explanation
of the disturbance. The management of
The Telegram asks no boy to sell the
3aper, but tffers it ior 24 cents to such
os want to sell it. But copies cannot be
taken back, for the reason that it causes
too great a waste of paper. Boys can
take a few copies at a time, and return
If they want more. The waste often has
been excessive, and it cannot be continued.
This explanation is given, for the Informa
tion of reasonable people. To such as are
not reasonable no explanation is worth the
trouble. Of course, it is absurd and fool
ish waste to print hundreds and thousands
of copies in excess of the demand of the
(market.
Opticians Meet. The second quarterly
meeting of the Oregon Association of
Opticians "was iield on Monday evening at
the Auditorium. A large number of opti
cians from all over the state were as

Democrats Meet. The Multnomah
county democratic central committee held
a meeting last night, which was pre
jeided over by G. M. Wells. George E.
Chamberlain, chairman of the executive
committee of the Democratic Central Club,
stated that the club had rented head
quarters In room 524, Chamber of Com
merce, where regular meetings would be
Jield after February 1 He tendered the
county committee the use of the room, and
tho committee will meet there hereafter.
The committee voted to invite the mem
hers of the state central committee to

The matter of ward clubs was dicussed,
ari&fit was decided to encourage the fdrma-'
tlon -of the same. A public meeting will
be held early in February, and It Is ex
pected that some prominent democrat from
abroad will be present and address the
assemblage.
Mb, Stearns Set Right. David S.
Stearns was quoted, in a real estate arti
cle published in Sunday's Oregonian, as
saying that real estate values In 1900 show
an increase of from 10 to 25 per cent over
OS90. The questions which The Oregonian
submitted to real estate dealers were mani
folded, and it is probable that in the list
sent to Mr. Stearns "ISM" was so indis
tinct as to be easily mistaken for 4,1S99."
Correcting the mistake, Mr. Stearns
writes: "Selling prices of real estate are
from 40 to 60 per cent lower than they
were 10 years ago, although the real
values, due to substantial improvements,
are much greater now than In 1S90. My
reply of an increase of from 10 to 25 per
cent was made under the Impression that
I was comparing values in 1900 with those
of 1S99."
Concert at Seamen's Institute. The
regular weekly concert will be given to
night at Seamen's Institute. These con
certs are sometimes given by the seamen
themselves and on other nights by shore
people. Tonight Is landlubber's night. The
concerts are growing in popularity among
the sailors and the Portland peop'e as
well. As there is an unusually small num
ber of vessels in port now, the rooms will
not be crowded with seamen tonight, and
this will be an exceptionally good oppor
tunity for visitors to enjoy the concert.
The-superintendent, Dr. J. Douglas Hay,
always keeps the latchstrlng hanging on
the outside.
Scandinavian Repu3iicans. A meeting
of the Scandlvanian Republican Club was
held in the "Worcester block last evening.
Tho meeting was well attended, and gen
eral Interest was manifested. Anions other
business transacted, the following were
chosen delegates to the state republican
league, which meets February fi, next, in
this city: C. F. Pearson, Gustav Ander
son, Samuel Holm, Edward J. Grabs, O.
H. Anderson, H. P. Christiansen, Fred
Xi. Olson, A M. Johnson, E. Gunderson,
A. G. QuisL
"Wong "Wat's "Woes. Wong "Way was
fined $10 In the municipal court yes'erday
for an assault on Ah Wing with a meat
ax. Wong accused Wing of stealing clothes
from him, and this caused the fight. At
one time Wing was tempted and he fell.
He was a thief, and since then he has
borne the mark of Cain. When Wong
learned of his mistake he regretted hav
ing assaulted "Wing, and offered to pay
the doctor bills. A white man was tho
real thief, and he has been apprehended.
Retail Clerks' Parade. Among the
other labor disturbances that broke the
monotonous silence of the city last night
was another parade by the Retail Clerks
Union. The same banners and transparen
cies bearing on the "'close-at-6-o'clock"
situation were carried, and the same
Third-street merchant who refuses to close
got the benefit of the major part of the
parade.
Swindler at IaArge. Recently some
beggar has been passing himself off as
the brother of Father Breen, O. P., of
the Portland clergy. Word of the fraud
Tcached the reverend gentleman, and he is
anxious to have every one know that it is
an imposition. The beggar is no relative,
laving taken the name merely to further
his swindling designs.
Cocaine Fiend Jah.ed.-W. A. Lebo,
a cocaine fiend in the last stages of the
habit, was sentenced to 345 days In the
county jail yesterday in the municipal
court Lebo is an old jailbird, and this
sentence to him simply means going home.

Barbers Prospering. The announce
ment that the barbers union was going
to fight all nonunion shops seemed to
have a salutary effect, as at present Presi
dent Hutch.nson eays there are less than 15
barbers in the city not belonging to the
union, that is, without the boss barbers,
who cannot hold, membership. He. also
states that one shop has suffered very
much by unauthorized reports spread
about to the effect that the proprietors
were fighting the union. This, he says,
is not true, and the shop has applied for
a card. The most violent of the very
few shops that have objected to the union
has stated through the state board that
it will meet the union half way. The
boys all say their order Is very prosperous.
They will give some form of a social next
week.
Illustrated Lecture D. A. Sinclair,
secretary of the Dayton (O.) Young Men s
Christian Association, delivered a very
Interesting illustrated lecture at the First
Baptist church last night He had very
many stereoptlcon views; In fact, enough
to last an enjoyable hour and a half. The
illustrations included the pictures of many
prominent people, and evoked much ap
plause from the audience. Mr. Sinclair
showed many of the prominent T. M. C.
A, buildings throughout the country, and
he explained the good work being done
by that organization. He took the audi
ence through the T. M. C. A. building of
Dayton, showing them the work being
done. Mr. Sinclair is making these lec
tures for no pecuniary gain, but simply
for the love of the work he Is engaged
in.
Gymnasium at the Road Club. The
Oregon Road Club has started its pro
posed gymnasium. About two months
back, shower and tub baths and lockers
were put in, and yesterday carpenters
were busy hanging rings and erecting a
stand for the punchlng-bag. The new ap
paratus has been "placed in the building
that was formerly the cyclery. It Is the
purpose of the club officers to proceed
slowly in the matter of a gymnasium, so
as not to place the club in debt again,
after its hard effort to get out of it An
other reason for proceeding slowly Is to
see how much the members use tho ap
paratus, and thus how much they desire
a gymnasium. The club Intends also to
build a handball court In the very near
future.
Alt. Bids Rejected. The board of pub
lic works, which took under consideration
the four bids submitted for the, Improve
ment of Twenty-first street, yesterday de
cided to reject them all. The reasons
given for this action are that the bids
are irregular in form and unreasonably
high, the lowest being nearly ?800 In ex
cess of the cost of the work as estimated
by City Engineer Chase. The action of
the board will render it necessary to re
advertise for bids for the work, and the
Improvement will in consequence be de
layed several weeks at least The bids
were as follows: Fralney & Rellly, $9S60 77;
Smyth & Howard, $9445 46; Portland Sand
& Contract Company, ?S091 41; Star Sand
Company, $9220 12.
Will Be Speedilt Improved. It Is very
Improbable that anything can now Inter
fere to prevent the early Improvement
of East Morrison street The time for
filing a remonstrance is past, and the city
engineer will at once prepare estimates of
the probable cost and an ordinance pro
viding for the time and manner of improv
ing the street will be prepared, and with
out doubt be passed by the council and at
once signed by the mayor, and the work
will be commenced as soon as these mat
ters are attended to.
Burglars in TJntversitt Building.
The university building at University
Park, which has been vacant for some
time, was protected from invasion by the
windows of the lower story being boarded
up. Some burglar has pried oft the boards
from 8 window and the building has been
ransacked by thieves, who did no particu
lar harm except in carrying away every
thing loose.
Free Sites for Factories. The Board
of Trade is prepared to furnish free sites
for manufactures which will furnish work
for a xeasonable number of employes.
These sites are situated along the bank
of the Willamette, between Alblna and St.
Johns, on the proposed extension of the
O. R. & N. railway, where shipping fa
cilities will be available by river and
rail.
Stole an Overcoat. Judge Hennessy
sentenced a young man, who gave his
name as Wilson, to the county jail for
one year, In the municipal court yesterday,
for stealing an overcoat from the Port
land library last Saturday afternoon. Wil
son was apprehended while trying to sell
the coat

PLEASANT ORGAN RECITAL.
Presbyterian Choir Give an Enjoy
able Programme.
A. fine musical programme was rendered
to a large audience last night at the First
Presbyterian church in connection with
the quarterly communion social. The re
cital opened with a brilliant organ conr
cert piece by Horatio W. Parker, which
Edgar Coursen gave with superb effect
In strong contrast to this was the solemn
and beautiful organ number, "Elevation,"
by Saint Saens. Mrs. Amadee Smith's
alnging of "Springtide." by Becker, elicit
ed much applause. For encore she gave
"The Night Has a Thousand Eyes." Mr.
Lauren Pease was in excellent voice, and
gave Balfe's Tomance, "If Thou Coulds't
Know," in a way that delighted the audi
ence and brought him a recall, in re
sponse to which he sang Bartlett's "A
Dream."
Mr. Coursen's other organ numbers In
terspersed through the programme con
sisted of a dainty selection by Gabriel
Marie, entitled "The Golden Wedding,"
in tho ancient gavotte style. This was
particularly enjoyed by the audience, who
showed their appreciation in very hearty
fashion; but Mr. Coursen did not respond
to tho encore, otherwise than by bowing
an acknowledgment The gavotte by
Martin Boeder, was one of his heaviest
numbers, one that called for difficult ped
al work and gave him an opportunity to
exhibit to excellent advantage his power
ful grasp of the organ. Following this
wag Guilmant's beautiful "Prayer and
Cradle Song" that closed the programme.
Shortly after 9 o'clock, the congregation
was ready to enjoy a social chat with
one another, and exchange greetings with
their pastor, Dr. Hill, and his wife. Re
freshments were served, and a spirit of
genial humor and good-will prevailed.

CHARGED WITH EXTORTION.
Eplnode at Montnvllla Over Alleged
Theft of 20.
George Coffman was examined in the
municipal court yesterday on the charge
of extortion and was bound over to the
grand Jury, under bonds of ?150. The
complainant Is Jesse Hess. Hess lives at
Montavilla with his mother, and Coffman,
who is a kind of relative, Is staying with
them. From the evidence it seems that
Coffman lost $20 In some way and accused
Hess of steallnc It, and told Mrs. Hess
that if he was not given tnat amount he
would carve Jesse's heart out She was
afraid of Coffman and gave him $20,
which was all the money she had.
ColTman testified that Hess robbed him
of $20, and that ho simply demanded ita
return, threatening to cause the boy's ar
rest If the money was not refunded. It
seems that the two boys slept together
last Saturday night, and that Sunday
morning Hess asked Coffman to get up
and see what time it was. He was absent
from the room only a few seconds, and
during that time the money was alleged
to have been taken from a puree in Coff
man's trousers pocket, which were under
the pillow. Coffman acknowledged that
1 ho did not miss the money until late in the
I day. He returned to the house, swore
Jesse had robbed him, and Mrs. Hess
gave him that amount.

CYCLE PATHS ARE DAMAGED
Covrs and Wagons Are Driven Over
Monnt Tabor Cycle Way.
The evele paths on the Base Line road,
from East Thirty-fourth street to Mount
Tabor, have been driven on with vehicles
and used to drive cattle over. Some one
drove a heavy wagon along the north side
path for a considerable distance, cutting
the path with .the wheels, and the horses
shoes made deep Impressions in the sur
face. While a resident was taking a stroll
out on the path Sunday, he met a man
leading some cows along the path. These
were especially well-constructed paths, be
ing wide enough for a wagon, and greatly
improved tho appearance of the road, and
it seems incredible that any one living
along that road where "these paths are
should drive over and destroy them. When
thus used they are practically destroyed.
It Is evident that some better method
will have to be adopted for the protection
of cycle paths. There is a class who will
not hesitate to drive on them and take
pleasure In doing so. A stringent law,
with a severe penalty, will only meet the
case, and a strong legislative enactment
will have to be passed applying to the
whole state, as the cycle path presents a
new condition not provided for In the road
laws. The man who drove on the Base
Line path probably did so out of pure
malice, as there is a well-improved road
way for vehicles alongside, and nothing
less than a heavy fine for injuring cycle
paths will deter such fellows. Riders paid
In this county about 512,000 bicycle tax,
some portion of which has been expended
In building paths. Next year they will pay
more, and more paths will be constructed,
so that It will be very necessary to pro
tect them from destruction.
Llentennnt Tclfer Elected Captain.
At the regular meeting of Gilbert camp,
No. 4, Second Oregon, Monday evening',
Xileutenant George F. Telfer was elected
captain to fill the vacancy that had exist
ed since the camp was started. The elec
tion of Xileutenant Telfer is regarded as
a most excellent selection, and it will add
much strength to the camp. H. U. Welch,
of the battery, was first asked to accept,
but declined, as he considered it better
that some member of the Second Oregon
who had seen active service snould be se
lected to fill the place. Messrs. Wells,
Meier and McKlnnnle were elected trus
tees of the camp. The sick comrades came
in for their share of attention. George
Breslln's condition was reported on. He
seems to be holding his own fairly well,
and hopes are entertained that he will re
cover. It was decided at the meeting of
the camp that a smoker should be given
next Monday evening at the hall, when
all veterans will be heartily welcomed. A
good time is expected that evening. The
Gilbert camp is in a flourishing condition
and growing in numbers.
Burled at Sim Franoisco.
Manifred G. Hamilton, whose death oc
curred in San Francisco Monday, has a
brother, F. M. Hamilton, living on Colum
bia slough, a well-known milk dealer.
The latter saw the account of his death
in The Oregonian of Monday. He tele
graphed for the particulars, and also sent
Instructions for the remains to be shipped
to Portland for interment A reply was
received from the San Francisco under
taker at once stating that the wife of the
dead man had provided for the Interment
to take place at San Francisco. Mr. Ham
ilton, the brother here, was very much
astonished over the answer, as he was
not aware that his brother had been mar
ried. Ho formerly lived on the East Side,
and conducted a grocery store on East
Washington street, between Union and
Grand avenues. None of the particulars
of the death have yet been received. Ho
was .not married when he left Portland.
His death seems to have been sudden. Mr.
Hamilton expects to ge nthe details by
mall after a time.
Pleasant Home Notes.
Anna Hevel, who lives at Gresham, met
with quite a severe loss while going from
that place to Pleasant Home, Saturday.
She lost her purse and a watch valued at
$30. She thinks, that in taking out her
handkerchief from her pocket the purse
and watch were pulled out at the same
time, and dropped outside the buggy in
the road. It is very improbable that she
will recover her property.
Mr. and Mrs. George W. Older, of
Portland, were at Pleasant Home Satur
day to Install the officers of the M. A. Jtoss
pest and the Woman's Belief Corps. The
former installed the officers of the post
and Mrs.01der Installed the efflcers of the
corps, the work in h'oth being most excel
lent They were the guests of Colonel
and Mrs. Robert Pool while at Pleasant
Home. At the entertainment which fol
lowed the Installation in the evening, May
Leslie, of Gresham, took the prize for the
handsomest lady, and Anna Hevel, of
Grosham, the second prize. Ampng tho
others who contested for these prizes were
Ida Layman, Maud LIttlepage, of Powell
Valley; Mpllie Dunn, of Sandy; Maud
Manery, of Pleasant Home; Maud Murry,
of Butto, Mont.
Better Fire Protection.
The fire commissioners have Just placed
two fire hydrants in Lower Albina for the
better protection of the large property
Interests there on thft water front. One
hydrant was located at the couth and the
other one at the north end of the Mont
gomery warehouse, just erected. Protec
tion is thus given this fine new warehouse
as well as to the surroundings. The hy
drants are attached to the Alblna water
system by a six-inch pipe, and there Is
an ample water supply. Several other
hydrants were placed further south of the wouM st at the of evenings in
Montgomery dock over a year ago, so that RfofW, nf nnmln ,nm(S nir. nfW i,,,,,,,,,.
the district adjacent the landing of the
Alblna ferry is fairly well protected
against fire. The next important consid
eration Is streets through which the ap
paratus may be taken.
Rev. Mr. Blair Improving.
Rev. G. A. Blair, pastor of the First
Cumberland Presbyterian church, who fell
and dislocated his right ankle while on his
way from his home to the church, Is now
improving, and hopes to be around again
soon. He is still confined to his rooms,
and yesterday the limb was put in a plas
ter cast. The dislocation was complicated
with the breaking of some of the tendons.
Mr. Blair Is improving so rapidly that
he hopes to occupy Ms pulpit next Sun
day. Mrs. Blair, who has been seriously
111, is also Improving.
Protracted Services.
Protracted meetings have been com
merced at the Second Baptist church, East
Ankeny and East Seventh streets. Rev.
Ray Palmer, pastor, Is being assisted by
other ministers. The attendance la very
good. Protracted services were also begun
at the Sunnyslde Methodist church, East
Thirty-fifth and East Yamhill streets,
Monday evening. For the present, Rev.
S. A. Starr, the pastor, is conducting tha
serVices alone, but he will have help-aftei
the meetings have progrcGsed a short time.
The meetings have started out well. Good
music Is provided each evening.
East Side Notes.
But little can be accomplished by the
contractor who has the Improvement of
East Burnslde street, between East Twenty-eighth
and East Thirtieth streets, while
the present weather prevails. Some of the
grading has been done, and lumber fo?
tho planking of the street has been de
livered. There is small prospect of the
Improvement being completed for some
time.
The Union Republican Club, of the ninth

rarely seen out, were, present.
DELIGHTFUL PERFORMANCE.
Keill Company's Charming: Rendition
of "A Gilded Fool."
A house crowded to the doors witnessed
the presentation of "A Gilded Pool" by
the James Neill company last night at the
Marquam Grand, the brilliant success of
the previous performance being more than
duplicated. This artistic, well-balanced
company Is winning unstinted encomiums
for its clever work, and If the opening
plays are samples of the rest of the reper
toire, a week full of pleasure Is assured
to Portland's theater-goers. The old
timer and the first-nighter have held up
Nat Goodwin's presentation of the char
acter of the "Gilded Fool" as an ideal
but James Neill last night demonstrated
that his conception and grasp of the com
edy work was complete, that he played
the part well, while he stood head and
shoulders over any other "gilded fool"
in his rendition of the pathetic passages.
His work at the close of the second act
In his touching love scene with Margaret
Ruthven was as pretty a piece of acting
as has been seen here.
The plot of this pleasing comedy Is too
well known for comment. Outside of Mr.
Neill in the personnel of the cast sev
eral pleasing pictures stand out promi
nently. Edythe Chapman, as Margaret
Ruthven, the sweetheart of Chauncey
Short (James Neill) was sweet and wom
anly, and fully deserved the recalls ac
corded -to her work. Julia Dean, as Nell
Ruthven, was a decidedly charming little
soubrette, was fairly bubbling over with
cheer and vivacity and fully shared the
comedy honors of the evening. Another
good piece of character work was done
by Ben Howard, as Bannister Strange,
the scheming and cunning capitalist.
Frank MacVicars as Matthew Ruthven,
Grace Lamkln as Sophia Ruthven, Rob
ert Morris as Jack Duval, and the canni
bals' irlend, Rev. Jacob Howell, por
trayed by John W. Burton, were all char
acterized in a befitting manner. A most
satisfactory feature of tho performance
was the oxquisite attention to detail. The
minor parts were all placed in excellent
hands, and altogether the entertainment
was most satisfying.
"Amy Robsart" will be the attraction
today at both the matinee and evening
performances, with James Neill In the
character of Earl of Leicestor.
Thursday night, "Lord Chumley"; Fri
day night, "Captain Swift"; Saturday
matinee, "A Bachelor's Romance," and
Saturday night, "Captain Lettarblalr."
BEAT HIS WIFE.
Scllwood Man, While Drunk, Abased
His Family.
Herman Hubers, a German laborer, who
lives at Sellwood, was In the municipal
court yesterday on tho charge of assault
and battery. Susanna Hubers, the man's
wife, was the prosecuting witness. She
testified that Monday night, as usual,
Herman came home drunk, struck hei
down and tore her clothes. Mrs. Hubers
then proceeded to relate her tale of woe.
She said Herman made $9 a week and
was the only support of the family, but
that he would not give her enough of
his wages to provide food for tho small
children, and was a habitual drunkard.
It was brought out in the testimony that
Herman had repeatedly sworn off, but In
a few days would be drunk again and
and fathers Judge Hennessy gave the
man a vigorous lecture, and he soon be
gan to weep. Mrs. Rubers chimed In with
a few soprano sobs, and a big tear was
