haeed bt a Flood. Two enthusiastic
ermen visited the Elokomln a few
p ago and came- near being washed
iy. They had caught a number of trout
lng the forenoon, and had enjoyed the
jrt of hooking and landing a number
i steelhead salmon, which they had to
back In the stream, as they could not
them home. About noon, as they
re fishing away from a gravel bar at
head of a fine pool, they heard the
r of rushing water, and looking up
river saw a flood coming down on
m, sweeping along a lot of sawlcgs and
ter umber. They manured to get out
I the river and up among the timber In
e to -save their lives, and from this
;e of safety watched the flood roll 'by.
Esy Imagined that there had been a
udburst or waterspout up the river.
x, alter waiting three hours, the stream
ne clear and they were enabled to
ume fishing, but had not much luck.
ley found out afterward that there Is
lam In the river some 10 miles above
ere they were fishing, which Is opened
noon and in the evening every day, to
Bh out any sawlogs which may have
bn thrown Into the stream, and incldent-
to wash away the banks of the
Ier. This sort of thing may be a good
ng- for loggers, but it is bad for fish
fishermen.
Tr Untagged Dogs. Numerous com-
Llnts have been made about the large
iber of unlicensed dogs running at
Ege In the city, but so far the dog
cher has not made any attempt to re-
the number. The committee on
lth and police give out that the reason
not starting out the dogcatcher is that
majority of the dogs not -wearing 11-
ise tag" had them, but have lost them.
say .that the last lot of license tags
scured were very poor ones. There was
lslderable credit taken to themselves by
committee on account of securing these
pnse tags for about half -what the tags
the year before cost, but If these
were such poor things, the credit
Is undeserved. The facts In the case
abably are that the dogs which have
tags say that they have lost them. and.
the committee Is short of funds to pay
catching the dogs, they pretend to be-
?e what tho dogs say. The number of
Itagged dogs Is increasing so rapidly
lit the probability is the committee will
an have to turn the dogcatcher loose
self-defense.
2UARTZ From the CoQinLLE. At the of-
of Captain Harts, United Stales En-
teers, is to be seen a specimen of quartz
tm Tupper Hock, an immense bowlder
ixr Bandon, from which rock is helng
ten to build the jetty at the mouth of
Coqullle. The specimen is almost en-
kly mineral of some kind, probably the
incipal part being pyrites of Iron, but
pre Is doubtless more valuable mineral,

a number of what appear to be bowl-
rs of immense size, scattered along the

oster Rock, on the Columbia, and fur
ies the finest kind of material for the

uctlons to the entrance of the Coqullle,

Jasie Birds Nesting Early. H. Kler-
n, who lives out near the Sandy, says
it tne birds are nesting earlier than
lal this season. He sas that a few
rs ago he found a ring-neck pheasant's
3t with five eggs in it, and as the blue
use have been "hooting" and tho
lied grouse "drumming" about his place
some time, he supposes that they are
Jting, too. This promises well for the
jp of game birds this season, for the
aspects are favorable for the first
rtche3 hatched coming to maturity. Some
jisons. when the Spring :s late and the
rds too previous in bringing out their
st broods, most of the young ones perish.
It when the "weather is favorable and the
3t brood does well, another and perhaps
lo more broods are raised, and then
Ime birds are plentiful in the Fall.

The matter of registration was discussed
at some length, and it was explained that
all foreigners could be registered six
months after having declared their Inten
tion to become naturalized. Many of
those present had not been aware of this
before, and all were urged to register at
once, and thus qualify themselves for vot
ing at all general elections In the state.
The reason why many of them had not
understood that they could vote on their
first papers is that they came here from
Minnesota, where it is secessary for a
foreigner to have taken out his final pa
pers before he is entitled to vote for Presi
dential Electors.

Bridge Travel Too Heavy. MorrVson
street brldgetenders will feel very much
relieved when the Madison-street bridge
has been thrown open again, as they have
had their hands full trying to regulate
the immense throng of pedestrians, bi
cyclists and teamsters since the upper
bridge has been closed for repairs. The
new deck of the Morrison-street bridge
shows signs of wear already, and the
planking of both approaches is getting
very thin. These approaches will be the
next to force their attention on the
powers that be for renewal, though how
they can be torn up for repairs in the
presence of the heavy traffic Is a problem
yet to be solved by the superintendent of
the bridge.

"MY PRECIOUS BABY."
IntcnKelj- Pnnny Comedy Opened
Week at Metropolitan.
The week opened last night at the Met
ropolitan Theater with a splendid pro
duction of the intensely funny English
comedy, "My Precious Baby." This com
edy was written by F. C. Burnaud, editor
of London Punch, and was first produced
with great success at the Criterion The
ater in London in 1S79. In the interven
ing 21 years it has never lost Its popu
larity. It has been years since it was
played in Portland. It is a clean, whole
some comedy, with a laugh in every Una
and not a dull word In It. There Is no
waiting for climaxes, as every situation
is a climax in itself. It is more nearly
adapted to the players than anything
that has been given by the Metropolitan
jtock company, and the management was
extremely fortunate In arranging the cast.
It went through with a vim and dash
that Is essential to a full appreciation
of its merits. Charles W. King, who is
making himself so popular with the Met
ropolitan clientele, assumed the part of
Mr. Dawson, the tutor, and was applaud
ed at the conclusion of every sentence.
Carl Nixon acquitted himself well as Mr.
Elrkett, .the studious father, and Dolly,
the hero of the play, fared equally well
through the Impersonation of Alex Beu
ford. Oscar Norfleet always demonstrates
the fact that he is an accomplished come
dian, and last night. In the role of Ned
Talbott, he kept the audience In a flut
ter of merriment. Page Spencer as Cap
tain McManus, Eddie Halland as the
Hairdresser, and Charles Waldron as
William were up to the requirements of
the play.
Some of the best. In fact the brightest,
parts of the comedy are in the female
roles. These were admirably filled. All
the women are pretty, and they were ele
gantly costumed. Miss Laura Adams was
cast for the part of Mrs. Birkett, but
yesterday afternoon she was summoned
to Oakland, Cal.. by the death of her
father, and her place was filled at the
last moment by Miss Myrtle Selwvn
-whose clever Interpretation left nothing
to be desired.
It Is needless to state that interesr cen
tered In bright, pretty, winsome Georgie
Cooper. In her songs she comes like a
whirlwind of melody; in her speaking
parts she is like dashes of bright sun
shine. It would be difficult to imagine
how her playing In the role of Betsy the
Maid could be improved. At the request
of many patrons she sang her former
success: "I've Waited. Honey, Waited
Long for .You." and the audience was
highly appreciative.
Miss Rosamond Hollls won applause as
Madame Polenta, and Miss Lelia Abbott
was well cast as Mrs. McManus. Miss
Rita Abbott as Nellie Bassett. who mar
ried Dolly, and Miss Leila Dean, as Clara
Peyton, did cleverly. The really hilarious
scenes, when laughter from the audience
comes so spontaneously, are where the
tutor sings his instructions to the pupils
In operatic style, and when some extracts
from the "Bohemian Girl" are sung. The
attraction is one that takes well, drives
away the blues, and it -will no doubt draw
large orowds all the week. "My Precious
Baby" will hold the boards at the Metro
politan all the week.

REVOLUTIONIZING
ALEXIS E. KRYE, SUPERINTENDENT OF SCHOOLS OF CUBA.
Alexis E. Frye. well known In California and in the New England states, as an educator
and author of text-books, was appointed to the position of Superintendent of Schools In Cuba.
Ave months ajyo, by Secretary Root. He Is revolutionising' educational "tiethods In the Gem
of the Antilles. At that time there were 4000 Cuban children golnp to what were called
public schools. Mr. Frye beltevca that by June there will be 100,000 ohlldren on the attend
ance rolls of the Cuban schools, which is over half the children on the island of school age.
Mr. Frye wrote a school law, which was issued in the .shape of an order from. General
Brooke's headquarters. He then went to work to carry out the provisions of the law he had
written, and was absolutely' alone In the task. He started on the assumption that Cuban
children were like all other children, and that education Is secured by the beet system
wherever It U needed. Mr. Frye reoelves a salary of $4000 a year for his work, and donatta
each month's pay to oine Cuban charity. He Is a man of wealth, and la In love with his
work. Through Mr. Fryc's offices, 1000 Cuban teachers will attend the Harvard summer
nchool this Summer. He asked President Eliot for free tuition for them, and his request was
Fronted. "While these teachers are in the United States they will tour the country and vlalt

will witness the elevation of a good many
new building walls In all quarters of the
city.
The new Multnomah Clubhouse, on
Chapman street, near Yamhill, Is nearly
roofed In, and plasterers will probably
begin on the interior in a few days. The
lofty frame structure known as the hand
ball court annex also looms up prominent
ly to the north of the main building, and
indications are that both buildings will
be finished early in the Summer.
On the Corbett four-story brick, corner
of Fifth and Stark, the piers aro rising
on the front walls, and by the end of
the week the carpenters will be placing
the second-story timbers In position. A
fresh supply of Newberg pressed brick has
arrived on the grounds, and no further
delay from lack of material Is antici
pated. This structure has to be finished
early In the Summer.
At the Good Samaritan Hospital, a large
amount of building material has been de
livered during the past week, and the
bricklaying force resumed work Saturday.
As the south and center wings of the hos
pital are to be finished by August, no
further time can be lost. The old hos
pital Is full to overflowing of patients
from all parts of the Northwest, and, In
fact, the superintendent is obliged to re
fuse applications daily. Such being tho
case, the new buildings will be hurried
forward ag fast as possible.
The new Brooke block, corner of Wash
ington and Park, has been roofed in, and
preparations are being made for the lath
ers and plasterers to begin on the in
terior this week. There Is some talk of
tearing down the three-story frame build
ing ocpupylng the block on the west of
the Brooke building this Summer to mako
place for a substantial brick structure
reaching to Stark street on the north. The
edifice now occupying the Washington
street front Is used ns a double set of
double houses, combining four dwellings
In all, and their contemplated removal
proves that retail business Is rapidly
growing westward along Washington
street. This property belongs to A. Berg.
The foundation walls of the new Ore
gon Telephone Company building, on tho
southeast corner of Alder and West Park,
are rising rapidly, and by the end of this
week they will Teach the level of the side
walk. The basement -walls are of solid
concrete, and will be among the most sub
stantial In the city.
Concrete pillars are being erected on
the corner of Third and Gllsan streets to
support the addition to be built by the
Willamette Iron Works. Tho foundations
will be ready for the carpenters toward
the close of the week.
The Brown lot. on Sixth, near Washing
ton, has been excavated, and the base
ment walls are rising rapidly. A large
amount of stono Is being used, and the
building, although to be of but one story
at present. Is likely to be raised several
stories In the near future. The present
structure will cost $5500.
Among the most Tecent permits Issued
by the City Engineer are:

HELD A POLITICAL SOCIAL.
East Side Republicans Are Growing
Enthugiastlc.
The Multnomah-Union Republican Club,
of the Ninth Ward, held an enthusiastic
meeting Saturday night. In Its quarters
on the corner of East Washington street
and Grand avenue. It was the best of the
fine social gatherings tne club has been
having since the consolidation of the two
organizations Into one. J. B. Easter pre
sided during tho. evening, as President
Rowe's desire Is to push the young mem
bers to tho front. The Alger brothers
were present and furnished excellent mu
sic Ormen and Merwin Rankin gave a
fine duet on th piano and violin, and wero
heartily applauded. One of the pleasing
features of the Multnomah-Union Club Is
tho fine musical entertainment that Is
provided; which Is far above the usual
class of music rendered at a political club
meeting. President Rowe and his commit
tee Insist on having the best to be had.
The addresses by C. A. Cogswell and J.
T. Gregg were carefully considered re
views of the situation. There was no sen
sational rant In these speeches, but a
thoughtful presentation of the Issues, and
tho kind that makes men think. The club
expressed Its appreciation by thanking
both speakers for their fine addresses.
Many Republicans were present from all
over the city.
At Hunter's Hall, the Sunnyslde Re
publican Club held an Important meeting,
and mad a start on a movement that
promises to raise corislderable. money for
the monument fund. For the purpose of
starting a movenient among all political
clubs all over the city and state of all
parties, an evening will be devoted to rais
ing a sum of money for the monument
fund. A committee was appointed to take
the matter up at once, and proceed -with
the arrangement. The matter is not po
litical, and members of all parties may
participate in th move. Th patriotlo
women of Sunnyslde will be asked to aid
In the affair, and several have signified
their willingness to do so. It is desired
to raise $50 at least, and as much more
as possible out of this movement, and It
was suggested that the other clubs also
take up the same line of action, and If
all devote their efforts to the same pur
pose a considerable sum of money can
be raised.
AnBoclntion to Meet.
The Multnomah County ex-Soldiers' and
