Persons away from the state, -who still retain their residence in Ore son, are entitled to he enumerated in the census for 1000, the ivorJc en which, began yesterday. For exam ple, ci-Governor Lord, who i in South America, and J. F. Copies, and II. B. Miller, ivho are abroad on Government missions, are citizens of Oregon, and their names should he on the rolls.

Amusements Tonight. CORDRAY'S THEATER (Washington st.) "The Real Widow Brown." To Extekd Holladay Sbwer. The Council sewer committee, at their meet ing yesterday, had under consideration the matter of providing sewerage for the eastern portion of Holladay Addition and , Jol.n Irving Addition. A petition from the residents of those sections had been referred to the City Engineer, who re-Frte- that the most economical p.an for furnishing the desired sewerage for the present would be to extend the Holladay averue sewer. This sewer, which was paid for by tho residents of the Holladay avonue sewer district, cost about $24,000, and ends for the present at East Thir teenth street. The plan proposed by the City Engineer is to build an extension to this sewer, from the end at East Thir teenth street north to Multnomah street, thence to East Seventeenth street, along that direct to Broadway, and along Broad way and on Broadway to East Twenty fourth street. The committee- decided to recommend that this scheme be carried out, but as so doing Is likely to arouse opposition from the residents of the Ho.la day sewer district, who may object to the sewer they have paid for being util ized for the benefit of an outside dh trlct, the committee made their recom mendation on the understanding that the petitioners should satisfactorily overcome any remonstrance from the residents ot tho Holladay sower district. Charged With Stealing Wateii Pipe. William Smith, a junk dealer who re sides near Mllwaulcie, was placed under $300 bonds yesterday, by Juc"ge Hennessy, to secure his appearance before the Grand Jury on a charge of larceny. The testi mony indicated that Smith hired an ex pressman and proceeded In broad daylight to steal a lot of iron pipe from a ware house belonging to the City Water Works. near the corner of llllwaukle avenue and Powell street. In order to secure tho pipe, which Is valued at $55, boards were torn oft the east side of the building. Some of the stolen material was sold by Smith to an East Side Junk dealer, and somo to another on Davjs street. Smith has been in the clutches of the police several times within the past two jears for Irregularities in connection with his business of a gatherer of Junk, as he has, it Is asserted, a tendency to pick up stuff without having first conferred with tho owner. In this case he has been using a 16-year-old brother, Harry, In trans ferring the property of the City Water Works, and Harry, the Prosecuting At torney said yesterday, has become quite an expert In purloining and selling "Junk." Harry Is also charged with larceny, and has to appear before the Grand Jury, but, owing to his youth, he was allowed to go on his own recognizance. Giant Rye. A sample of rye from a 40 acre field on the property of the Union Meat Company, at Troutdale, was placed in the exhibit of the Bureau ot Informa tion yesterday. It is S feet 2 Inches in height from the first joint, and is said to be a fair sample of the whole field. Lads and lasses will be likely to experience dif ficulty in coming through that patch of rye. A shock of "bald barley" has been added to the exhibit by M. A. Van Glider, of Wasco, which is accounted .very fine. People who have never harvested the old fashioned bearded barley have no Idea why any one should hanker for beardless barley, but if they would build one load of the bearded article they would find out. Inquest. At the Inquest held yesterday afternoon, to decide the cause of Mm. Myra McNeill's death, "syncope, superin duced by violent exercise," was named in the verdict. Deceased had been suffering from organic disease of the heart, though the symptoms were not so pronounced as to alarm her friends. She had been out to Rlvervlew Cemetery on Thursday after noon, and that portion of Macadam street near Curry, being covered with looee gravel, Inordinate exertion was required in wheeling. Mrs. McNeill's nativity was given as Iowa, and her age 34. Children for Family Homes. One boy baby, 5 months: one boy, 5 years; two boya, 9 years: one girl. S years; one girl, 32 years.

On this North west coast 400 boys and gins have been received and placed in good homes in five years. Alumni Meeting Monday. The Port land High School Alumni Association will have their annual election of officers Mon day evening, at the school building. The question of Inviting girls not graduates of the school to the class reception this month will be decided. This has long been discussed, but will be put to a final vote at this meeting. At this time also the association will probably decide to present a gold medal for the encouragement of track athletics. The First Presbyterian Church, Alder and Twelfth streets. Rev. Edgar P. Hill, D. D., pastor. Sunday morning. Chl.dren's day exercises; evening. "Christ the World's Savior." As a prelude to the evening sermon, the pastor will say a word on the political situation.

Admission 23 cents, Great Elk Coming. A telegram re- J ceived yesterday by District Deputy Ralph E. Moody, of the Elks, announces that the Grand Exalted Ruler, Judge B. M. Allen, from Burmingham. Ala,, ar rived In St. Paul on Tuesday last an his way to Portland. Thursday evening a com mittee of five was appointed by Portland Lodge, No. 142, to make arrangements for the reception and entertainment of tho head of the Elks of the United States, while in this city. The citizens of Port land win well remember the notable oc casions of the visits of Grand Exalted Ruler E. B. Hay, some four years ago. followed by that of Meade Detwel.er. On the occasion of E. B. Hay's visit thou sands of people came to the city, and the demonstration rivaled that of the first visit of Henry Vlllard. president, at the opening of the Northern Pacific Railroad. The Elks of the city will undoubtedly make great preparations for the reception of their present Grand Exalted Ruler, Judge Allen, who stands very high In the community where he resides, and is re puted as a jurist of the highest character. It is probable that ho will be accom panied by other notab e Elks and promi nent citizens ot the East. Seattle is al ready making preparations for the en tertainment of the party, and will en deavor to rival Portland in this line. For an Election Booth. The removal of a panel of the wire-netting fence from the Alder-street front of the premises oi the Portland General Electric Company, at the corner of Seventh, and the construc tion of a platform on the grass plot, at tracted the attention of passers and caused much discussion as to the object of the Improvement. It was finally de cided that there was going to be a picnic on the grounds, and the platform was for a dancing floor. Yesterday, when a tent was pitched over the platform, the dis cussion was renewed. Some were of opin ion that a merry-go-round was to be located there, others that there was to be a maps meeting on the corner, and the tent and platform were for the orators. Others were certain that there was to be a camp meeting in the tent, but the sight of a barrel with a spigot on It. at the rear at the tent dispelled the Idea. It was finally ascertained that the barrel con tained nothing but tar, and that the tent Is to be a polling place during the election on Monday. There may be a picnic and a dance there after election, but this will depend on who Is elected. To Arrange for .Pioneer's Banquet. An enthusiastic meeting of the Ladles' Auxiliary of the Oregon Pioneer Associa tion was hold at the Hotel Portland yes terday afternoon, and the following ener getic central committee was unanimously elected; Mrs. I. W. Pratt. Mrs. E. E. Mc Clure and Mrs. O. P. S. Plummer. They will take charge of the banquet to be given to the pioneers June 15. They now call for the usual generous contributions from the public, and, as the time Is lim ited, most earnestly ask that the re sponse may be prompt, in order that all details may be arranged at the next meeting, which will be held Friday, June 8. at the Hotel Portland. East Side Railway Improvements. Superintendent Maxwell, of the East Side Railway Company, states that the eight cars of the company running between Portland and Oregon City are all to be thoroughly overhauled. Three have al ready been made over at the shops at Mllwaukle, and the remainder will be replaced In service as rapidly as circum stances permit. Those already refitted present a very handsome appearance. The company will equip each car with an electric arc headlight Tho company Is replacing old ties with new ones and re newing the bridges and trestles of its entire system, which covers some 23 miles. Chinatown Is Clean. Health Commis sioner Menofee, who has lately made a thorough inspection of the sanitary condi tion of the Chinese quarter, reports that if has been pretty thoroughly cleaned up. and that there is very little to complain of there now. The quarter Is not crowded now. as the greater number of the Chi nese are absent in the fisheries or on rail road work, etc.; but every house will be filled to its full capacity next Winter. The Japanese are crowding into the city, and their quarters are filled to .overflowing, and will need to be carefully looked after. Yacht Race Tonight. The opening an nual regatta of the Oregon Yacht Club, which was to have come off on Decoration day, but was postponed on account of lack of wind, will take place this even ing. About 18 boats have been entered for the race. The start will be made at 6 P. M., from a stake-boat Just above the Madison-Street Bridge, and the race s three times around the club's course, the upper end of which is marked by a stake boat off tho lower end of Ross Island. Great interest is taken in the result by yachtsmen and their numerous friends. Has Lived a Century. William Foley, who has Just returned from a trip through the French Prairie country, reports hav-i. lng met, about two miles from St. Paul, a pioneer named Henry Cosgrove, who is over 100 years of age. He is a native of Lanark County, Ontario. The old man .s quite active and at himself, and Mr. Foley had a very pleasant chat with him. As Mr. Cosgrove was on earth when the 18th century came to an end, and Is likely to see the end of the present century, he ought to be an authority on the vexed question as to when a century ends. Health of the City. The report of Health Commissioner Menefee, for the month of May. shows that the number of births registered during the month was 63; males 30. females 33.

Gregory Jones, of Liverpool, Visits he Sertwest. F. Gregory Jones, of Liverpool, Eng land, a member of tbe great wheat brok ing firm of Montgomery, Jones & Co., one of the largest of the kind in the world, who has been spending a few days in the city, left for Duluth yesterday on his way home. He left London last Christ mas, and having traveled through the great wheat-growing belts of Australia, Tasmania and New Zealand, next turned his course toward Portland, which he rec ognizes as one of the great wheat-shipping ports of the world. He made a brief stay at Samoa on the way, and visited the last resting place of the famous writer, Rob ert Louis Stevenson, there. He spent his time here in thoroughly investigat ing the wheat situation in the Northwest, and derived a very accurate Idea in regard to it Mr. Jones is no new hand in the wheat business, having been in it the greater part of his life. He visited Portland 20 years ago and again six years ago for the same purpose which brought him here this time. Speaking of Willamette Valley wheat, which used to command 3 to 4 cents per bushel more than "Walla Walla" wheat, on account of Its making a whiter flour, Mr. Jones saye millers are no lon ger anxious to obtain It at an advanced price. The substitution of steel rollers for stones in grinding wheat has made a change in this matter, and harder wheat is most In demand. Enough wheat pro ducing the whitest flour Js raised in Eng land to supply the demand for pastry and for mixing, and the day of high prices for Valley wheat is past. Walla Walla wheat ranks high among the wheats of the world, Mr. Jones says. Mr. Jones la a wheat statistician, and prepares yearly the well-known Mout gomery & Jones' Wheat Chart, which Is a standard authority on the subject of wheat crops and prices all over the world. He, however, disclaims any relationship to "Wheat-Chart Jones," of Spokane, who la not a standard authority on anything but 15 to 1. Mr. Jones will make a short stay at Duluth to Investigate the wheat situation In the Middle Northwest, and will then call from New York for home. Mr. Thomas McNamee is the nominee for Constable, West Side, on the regular Republican ticket. Mr. McNamee has been engaged in business In Portland during the past 11 years, and during all of that time has been a consistent and energetic Re publican, supporting the regular party nominees. If It had pleased the late Re publican convention to nominate some other person for the office of Constable, it Is safe to assert that Mr. ilcNamee would give the ticket the same hearty support that he is at present entitled to as a candidate. Such men deserve the loyal support of. every member of the Re publican party, and Mr. McNamee will un doubtedly be elected by a handsome ma jority. The aggressiveness and character of the man will be easily understood when It is known that he has successfully fought the battle of life unaided since he was 7 years of age. He then sold papers In Pittsburg, and later entered the employ of the Northwestern Railway at St. Paul, where he remained for a number of years. He came to Portland 11 years ago, and has "been actively engaged In business ever since. Mr. McNamee pays taxes on a large amount of property, and if elected will administer the office in an economical and business-like manner, that will re flect credit alike upon hlmpelf and the party he represents. Mr. McNamee wishes it to be distinctly and positively under stood that he has not promised to ap point any man to be his deputy. Street reports to the contrary are merely cam paign falsehoods. MATINEE TODAY. "The Renl Widow Brown" the At traction nt Cardray's. That lively farce comedy, "The Real Widow Brown," which has been crowding Cordray's all this week, will be the matinee attraction there this afternoon, and the advance sale has been so large that a crowded house Is assured. The play Is one abounding In the clever special ties which are the delight of a matineo audience, and It is furthermore funny all the way through, whicn can be said of few plays which are now passing as farce comedies. It is presented by an excellent company, and the manner In which It has been received in Portland shows that it ii appreciated here. The last performance will be given tonight. DR. RAND FOR CORONER. Ills Itccord During the Past Two Years Will Insure a Victory Next Monday. With the prestige of faithful perform ance of the duties of Coroner during the past two years. Dr. D. H. Rand ought to be re-elected by an increased ma jority. The canvass conducted by the doctor and his friends has been devoid of all personalities, a circumstance that has Impressed favorably all intelligent and fair-minded citizens. Dr. Rand is a well known physician, a profession that fits him admirably to discharge the important duties of the office of Coroner. The peo ple can be relied upon to reward faithful servants, and the doctor's record during the past two years will Insure his re election. LUDWIG WILHELM. Candidate for County Commissioner, Mr. Wilhelm is one of Portland's sub stantial German citizens. Is 55 years of age. and has resided in this city for the last SS years, but has never before been a candidate for office. Without any assist ance save his own industry and economy, he has accumulated a considerable proper ty and is now one of our substantial tax payers. He Is a man of high character and business integrity, and If elected Coun. ty Commissioner will apply the same eco. nomlc and business'methoLs to the affairs of the county that have brought success to his effort in private life. With the In. creased wealth and population of thi county and city this has become one of tfla' most important ouces on our local ticket, Death of John C. Mnlone. J. C. Malone. a welll-known old resi dent, living on East Thirtieth and Harri ron streets, died yesterday morning at his heme, after an extended i.lnecs He ! aswwKS ewswit S2ilBv9ssSsflB '" " MHWfr.2 MBu3(SJBflBJBBf ;" was- S years oli. Far several year he had been in failing health, and several months ago. not expecting to live very long, he made the arrangements for his funeral. Mr. Malone has been a familiar figure on the East Elde for the past X years. He was a man of integrity, and was- highly respected. Befare coming to Portland he lived in California. He leaves a family. The funeral will take place this morning at 9 o'clock from St. Francis' Church. TRIP THROUGH BIG BEND, Captain W. W. Harts Hakes a Tour of Inspection. Captain W. "W". Hrts, United; States Engineers, arrived home yesterday from a trip through the Big Bend country and up the Clearwater, the object of his journey being to see as much as possible of the territory tributary to the Columbia and Snake Rivers. He went from Pasco to Spokane and thence through the Palouse country, and by way ot Moscow to Lewis ton. From Lewiston he proceeded up the Clearwater to Kooskie, the present end of the Northern Pacific line, and the head of navigation. At Kamiah. some 10 miles below XCoos kle, the Northern Pacific has a bridge across the Clearwater, which Captain Harts Inspected and measured to see that the draw span complied with the specifica tions of the War Department. Here the valley of the Clearwater begins to open out, and Kamiah Flat, the Winter homo of the Indians. Is a most beautiful tract of country. The Indians have 10 acres each on this fiat, and 70 acres more on the higher ground, for farms. This section is well watered, and needs no Irrigation, which is a necessity in the Big Bend re gion. Captain Harts says it would be a shame to drive the Indians out of this lovely, fer tile region, and yet It seems a pity to leave It in a wild and uncultivated con dition, as it would support a dense popu lation. The Palouse country very favor ably Impressed Captain Harts, as It must any one who sees it. At Judson, on the Snake River, a vast quantity of wheat is stored, waiting the completion of Paul Mohr's portage road at Celilo. i PERSONAL MENTION. A. L.
