Look: Oxjt for This Swtndue. The man
who calls et residences and says he has
been sent after a suit of clothes, -which
the owner wants cleaned and pressed, Is
around again. Whether he Is the same
lellow who was working this racket here a
year or two ago has not yet been ascer
tained. One of his tricks at that time
was going to the house of a prominent
physician, and getting away with his
dress suit by saying that the doctor was
going out to a banquet, and would dress at
his office, and so had sent for his evening
clothes. Yesterday, shortly after a resi
dent of Twelfth street had started for his
office down town, a man called at his
house and said he had been sent after a
cult of clothes, which needed cleaning and
pressing. He was told that the mas.er of
the house had not laid out any suit as
was usual in such cases. He said he had
met the owner of the clothes a few blocks
down the street, an-t had been told to
come for the suit. The mistress of the
house told the fellow to wait till she could
ask her husband by telephone which suit
he wanted cleaned, and the tellow went
off, saying that he would be back, but
he did not return. He is evidently an
old hand at the business, ana tne women
folks will do well to look out for him.
loatikg Ties Down the Sandt. The
rise In the Columbia has caused back
water in the Sandy, and sawmill men
along that river are beginning to dump
railroad ties into that stream, considering
the backwater the safest kind of a boom.
Last year many ties passed over or under
the log boom which was Intended to stop
them at Troutdale, to the serious loss of
the owners. At Eramhall's mill and
SIcnsenger's mill there are a large num
ber of ties to be thrown Into the river,
which will be taken out by an endless
chain arrangement at Troutdale and de
posited on flat cars. The Cummlngs mill,
on the Sandy. Is about ready to begin cut
ting ties, and all the mills there have
fine bodies of tie timber. The ties cut
in the half-dozen or more mills about
Pleasant Home are not taken to the river,
but aTe hauled direct to Troutdale. The
country between Portland and the Sandy
Is being rapidly cleared of Its timber, and
would soon be converted Into good farms If
there was a railroad out there. The long-talked-of
railroad to Mount Hood will be
built some time before long, and will open
up a lot of good farming and timber land,
and will besides be a ereat attraction to
tourists.
Citt Safe Stili Closed. The time lock
on the safe In the City Treasurer's office
still continues run down, and up to a la;e
hour yesterday afternoon all the "experts"
called In had not succeeded In ge.tlnjr It
opened. Treasuter Hacheney has ir.siruc
tions in regard to the method to be used
In opening the snfe in .such cases, but,
unfortunately, in order to keep them safe
he put them in the sar, and they are
safe enough In there. They are of about
as much use In this emergency as the
cable and anchor'whlch the captain In the
anecdote had left at home. The affair
causes no particular inconvenience, as
there is nothing in the safe but some small
change, a supply of which has been pro
cured from the outside, so business goes
on without Interruption.! It Is supposed
tnat the clockwork In the time lock has
quit work because It has not been cleaned
and oiled of late.
Six o'clock Closixg Association-. The
following Is a brief summary of the pro-gran-me
to be presentee at the Marquam
Theater tonight. The meeting will be
called to order by the president of the
Six o'Clock Closing Assocla.icn, and for

"Woman's Club. Brief Introductory re

lowed by brief remarks from Rev. A. A.
Morrison and other well-known members
of the Portland Ministerial Association.
Demoralized. The strawberry market
lias been badly demoralized for the pas;
few days. The showers In this section
prevented the berries from ripening, and
on Saturday Hood River berries brought
30 cents a pound. At the same time Cali
fornia berries In bad order were being
peddled about town at 5 cents per basket.
Yesterday Roseburg strawberries were
belling for 20 cents per basket, and a largo
lot of California berries, which arrived
in poor condition, were being gotten rid of
at any price. Many cases of California
berries have been thrown away. A few
days of bright, warm weather would fill
the market with Mount Tabor strawberries
and put an end to California importations
for the season.
Big Building to Be Occupied The
fine stone building a the Intersection of
Sixth and Ankeny streets, which was
built by the Snell, Heltshu & YVoodard
Co , and occupied by them as a wholesale
drug house up to the time of their fail

Over Ixjwer "Wharves. The water
came over the lower wharf at the foot
of Alder street yestercay morning, show
ing that the annual fioojijin. the Columbia
Is on, and earlier than usual. No one
imagines that the rise will be great enough
to causi any particular annoyance. Some
had an Idea that the water would not get
over the wharves this season, as this has
been known to happen more than once.
The water is supposed to be coming from
the Rockies, in British Columbia, ard as
the rise Is earlier than usual. It will prob
ably not last so long as usual.
Dull Around the Citt Hall. Coun
cilmen are not numerous around the City
Hall these days, and even the Mayor Is
not so much In evidence there as he usod
to be. There will be a meeting of the
Council tomorrow, but It is not known
that there is any business of importance
to come up for consideration. A lot of
street work lh under way, and there will
probably be a number of ordinances to
pass In connection with this, but there Is
not likely to be much outside of routine
business coming up until election Is over
Annual Meeting Today. The Free
K'ndergartcn Association of Portland will

For Benefit of Monument Fund. At
a meeting of Clan Macleay last night it
was decided to celebrate Queen Victoria's
birthday by giving a concert In the Ar
mory. May 23. for tho benefit of the monu
ment fund. The programme has not yet
been fully made up, but will consist of
the best musical talent In the city. The
entire proceeds will be given to the monu-,
ment fund. Clan Macleay has always been
successful with entertainments of this
kind. In February It raised 5C0 for the
fund for the benefit of the widows aril
orphans of English soldiers who lost their
lives in the Boer war, and numerous other
charities have received substantial aid
from its handb. The-present object is one
which will appeal to every one, and which
deserves hearty support.
He "Was Made Up. An engine-driver
rushing his team to a fire a day or two
since with his face covered with lather,
except a strip on on? side, where the bar
ber had made one srrape as the bell rang,
attracted considerable attention. Behold
ers were at a loss to understand whether
the driver was a gray-bpnrdsd patriarch
of the profession of whether he was made
up for the occasion. It Is nothing un
usual for cmplovos of tho fire department
to have to leave the table with their meal
unfinished, or the barber's chair ha'.f
shaved, to answer to an alarm. They
usually have time between alarms to get
these matters straightened out.
Promising Crop cf Quail. Reports re
ceived by Game Warden Qulmby from all
parts of the "Wltlamette Valley indicate
that the crop of pheasants and quail is
going to be very large this year. One man
roports that in driving from Lebanon to
Albany he counted 70 old pheasants, the
young ones not being .seen. The mild
Winter and early Spring has been very
favorable for the broods of young birds.
Many of the pheasants are already think
ing about a second brood. Ffroin several
sections reports have been received to the
effect that quail ore numerous, and are
raiting large broods of young ones.
Trout-Fishing Not Good. Fishermen
are not having much luck In the trout
streams this year, or If they are they are
not saying anything about It. One sports
man reports having hod fair sport fishing
the Sands' with- a fly up near the pipe
line bridge. He caught some mountain
trout, and a salmon, but no salmon trout.
Several fishermen visited the Clackamas
Sunday, but had poor luck. In the ab
sence of the usual supply of troat, it
might bo Imagined that the fish liars
would come out strong, but poor luck
seems to have a depressing effect on them
as well as the truthful fishermen.
Baseball. The baseball game between
the High School and Bishop Scott Acad
emy, that was postponed last Saturday,
will be played this afternoon on the field
at Nineteenth and Everett streets. Tho
teams are evenly matched, and the out

though, means a good deal towards secur

cnhelmer trophy. The batteries will bo

and Harklns and Swope for the High

Golf. The last monthly competition for
the Corbett cup took place yesterday,
and resulted In Miss Heltshu qualifying
with the scratch score of 64. The finals
will be played Tuesday. May 29, and those
eligible for same are: siesdames Wilson,
Koehler. Aycr. Wilcox, Shepherd, and
Misses Macleay, King and Heltshu. The
players are all very evenly matched, and
an exciting contest Is looked for. On
Saturday Messrs. Gilford and Bourne qual

are also badly damaged, as well as the
early varieties of apples. Late apples are
in full supply, and he thought he was go
ing to have a big crop of Astrachans until
he made an examination a few days ago,
as the trees were loaded with the young
fruit up to last week. The cherry crop
will also be light on the farm, although
his cherry trees in South Portland will

the protection afforded by the numerous

"Work Suspended. Work on the Cas

middle of next month, on account of the
high water Kicrnan & Taylor, of Port-,
land, who have the contract for rlprap
ptng the middle wall, expect to resume
operations after the water recedes, and
will put on 0 men for the remainder of
the season. The work will consist In
quarrying rock, running It on a tran
way to the locks, and placing it oa the
sloping banks to prevent their further
washing away. It is thought that J1E0.OM
to $200,000 will yet be needed to complete

first-class tenders for his canneries, and
ought to be able to make a good showing
this season. Since he returned to the
Sound Howard Winters has ascer
tained why he had to leave there and come
fiver to the Columbia for his health. It
is well known that the Sound Is Infected
with teredoes, which bore Into anything
not made of metal they came across.
Winters says that the teredoes got under
Mr. Cook's undcrplnlng and he was obliged
to come over and wade In the fresh water
of tho Columbia to get rid of them.
About a Dog. A dog case is to occupy
Justice Kraemer's attention next Satur
day afternoon. Carl W. Lelck has been
arrested at the Instance of A. C. Gibson,
who charges him with "malicious and
wanton injury to an animal, or other per
sonal property." It seems that a gang
of canines had gathered about Mr. Leick's
premises, much to his annoyance, and he
turned a shotgun loose at them, breaking
the leg of a dog belonging to Mr. Gibson,
who places the value of tho Injured ca
nine at $o00. The defendant was permit
ted to depart on his own recognizance.
Could Not Collect. JusUce Kraemer
yesterday decided the case of H. A. Hol

fendant. Holman, a musician, had sued
the woman, who goes by the name of
"Livorpool Liz," for 5S0 balance alleged to
bo due for services at Evergreen Park,
Piedmont, last Summer. The Justice
thought the woman was not proprietor of
the place, at that time, and that Harry
