Now that the elec tion Is over and Pretoria captured, house building has been resumed in this city with a rush. Building permits were issued by the City Engineer yesterday for the erection of elx two-story houses, one to cost $6000, one $2800, three to cost $2000 each and one $1500. Permits for the erec tion of some 400 houses in the city have been issued .since the beginning of tha year. By far the greater number of them are two-story houses, costing $2000 to 52500 each, but they range from the cot tage, costing $500, up to the palatial resi dence, costing $25,000. This doea not 'n clude the brick business blocks, of which there are a considerable number In course of construction, mostly 100x100 feet, and ranging from two to five stories in height "Work on come of these has been much de layed, on account of the scarcity of brick. On t this account many foundations, even for cottages, have been constructed of concrete, the cost of which is about the same as for brick. Brickmakers do not fieem to be able to rise to the occasion, and It is probable that there will be more engaged in this business before long. Quick Delivery of Mails. The citi zens of Portland are receiving the beneiit of lightning dispatch in the matter of distributing malls arriving from San Fran cisco and the East. These mails are all eorted on the trains, and the mail for each carrier is put up In a separate package. As the San Francisco Express crosses Mor rison street on the East Side the sacks are thrown from the mail car and are at once thrown Into a screened wagon, which Is waiting for them, and driven rapidly to the Postofflce, where the letters are run through machines and "back stamped." and are being delivered by the carriers about as soon as the train is at the Cen tral station. On the arrival of O. R. & 2C. trains, the malls, all properly dis tributed for the carriers, are thrown on a truck standing ready on. tho platform, at once transferred to the ma'l wagon, whirled away to the Postofflce, back stamped and are beto? delivered by the carriers before the T'lescmrers arriving by the train have Teached"thoIr hotels It is difficult to imagine how any fur ther Improvement can be made in thl matter. Meeting op Indian "War Veterans. Indian "War Veterans, their wives and widows, will meet in Portland June 14. Elaborate preparations are being made by the ladles to furnish them a splendid din ner on that occasion. Their business and social meeting will be enlivened by vocal and instrumental music. It is due thet-o old pioneer veterans that the papers on this coast give notice of this annual re union, so that all veterans will be noti fied of the date of meeting. The citizens of Portland extend to these worthy od citizens a cordial Invitation to be pres ent at the grand encampment of veterans on the 14th and tho pioneers meeting on tho 15th. Thte annual reunion of veter ans and builders of this "Western empire is the brightest 6pot in all the year to them, as they greet comrades and old friends of half a century ago. Council Meets Today. Tho Council men have had so many things to attend to during the past week or two that it is probable that there will be but little business of Importance to como before the Council at their meeting today. The Mayor's veto of the ordinance authoriz ing the committee on 'accounts and current expenses to employ an expert to examine the books and accounts of the City Treas urer and Auditor will probably be acted upon. As the Mayor signed the ordinance providing for an appropriation for paying an expert for this purpose, he will doubt less direct tho expert appointed by him some time ago to make tho examination when the proper time arrives. Bankrupt Sale. Sealed bids for bicy cles and supplies, electrical goods, ma chine shop, tools, etc., of the Columbia Electrical & Repair Company, bankrupt, Astoria, Or., will be received by the un dersigned trustee at Astoria up to 2 o'clock P.

The Elks sparo no pains or expense to make things Interesting for any of the grand exalted members of their fraternity who visit this city. Dismissed an Opponent. The Board of Public Works held a brief session yester day and passed the claims against the city and the payrolls for last month. It was reported at the meeting that Mayor Storey had dismissed "W. A. Hart from the office of superintendent of the street cleaning and sprinkling department. This Is within the power of the Mayor, but U will not be within his power to prevent Mr. Hart's reappointment a month hence. Tho reason given for, the dismissal Is that Mr. Hart worked against tho re-election of the Mayor. Hioh School Alumni.

Splendid Projection of "Tke Tyran ny of Tears." John Drew and the excellent company surrounding him In the comedy-drama "The Tyranny of Tears" entertained last night at the Marquam Grand Opera-House one of the largest and most fashionable audiences of the year. Standing room in the foyer was at a premium, and the boxes and loges were all filled with theater par ties. The appreciation expressed was such as the play Itself demanded, not the demonstrative, but the subdued sort, at the same time spontaneous and hearty. The story of the comedy is well ex pressed Jn the title, "The Tyranny of Tears." A young and loving wife, find ing the power of tears in petty matters in gaining her ends with her loyal and In dulgent husband, gradually Increases this use of her power until the husband as serts himself, the immediate result of this assertion being a temporary separa tion and subsequent reconciliation. A matter-of-fact bachelor friend of the hus band and a lady secretary of the husband become Innocently mixed up In the family difference, the outcome being a love story without, any tears being cleverly Inter woven with the main theme. John Drew, as Mr. Parbury, the hus band, a literary man, sustained the char acter and brought out the comedy ele ment in a moft finished manner. It was hard to tell whether he excelled in the part of the loving. Indulgent husband, as In tho first and second acts, or in the part of the cranky fellow In the garden 'scene of the third act, where he has a Gain in Cuitom-House Receipts. The receipts at the Custom-House e of the Port of Portland for the 9 month of May, 1900, amounted to J $51,923 40. The receipts for the cor- responding month of 1SS9 amounted to $40,9S2 31. showing an Increase for the month of $10,941 09. e "pleasant" breakfast in the garden with his bachelor friend, equally cranky, after trying to drown their feelings the rrfght before, upon which evening the tearful wifo had returned to her father's home. Isabel Irving's charming personality la peculiarly fitted for the role of Mrs. Par bury. Her facial expression is a study, and her winning voice, choked with sobs, would subdue a. more obdurate mm than Mr. Parbury. Miss Irving's comedy work was" particularly pleasing In the first and second acts. Ida Conquest was Miss Woodward, the amenuensls and secretary of Mr. Parbury. who had secured the po sition of secretary through Mrs. Par bury, because Mr. Parbury was euch a man's man, even her husband's old bach elor chum being the wife's great bugbear. Her portrayal of the part was decidedly naive and sweet Arch Innocence was depicted In every scene, her lovo sceno with the erstwhile Indifferent bachelor be ing particularly good. Tho part of George Gunning, the chum of Mr. Parbury in h's bachelor days, was well taken by Arthur Byron. His sang frold and rollicking good humor of tho first act was in marked contrast with his crustiness of the third act, when he end Mr. Drew have a bad morning of It His Indifference breaks down in the last act when the potent charms of tho pretty sec retary win from him a declaration of h's love, but even here his matter-of-fact brusque air never leaves him. Harry Harwood, as Colonel Armitage. tho gay old father of Mrs. Parbury. did a good piece of character workT Frank B. Lamb, as Evans, the butler, and Georgle Mendum, as Caroline, the maid, characterized their parts cleverly. Tho support of Mr. Drew Is happily se lected. The play Is a charming comedy, sufficiently heavy that perhaps In less skillful hands it might in places become commonplace, but in the hands of the present company there Is not a slow mo ment Tonight will be tho last performance of the present engagement of Mr. Frohman's company in "Tho Tyranny of Tears." CREAMERY INDUSTRIES. Steadily Increasing- In the Valley Xo Danger of Overproduction. Dairying Interests are rapidly advancing In the Willamette Valley. A new Interest has been Infused in this Industry this season, by reason of a series of educa tional institute meetings to be conducted throughout the state, under the auspices of the State Agricultural College. The Southern Pacific Industrial depart ment through the untiring efforts of C. H. Markham, the general freight and pas senger agent has largely fostered all creamery enterprises along its line. These Institute meetings will alike prove a bene fit to those who have already established creameries, those who contemplate doing so. and the farmers. The Agricultural College has made ex periments along practical lines, and will give out results at these meetings. Two main points are to be considered the production of first-class creamery but ter and a market for the product The latter Is a sequence of the former. Mr. Markham says that the farmers are fast awakening to the Importance of breeding good stock. His company has already brought In several herds of fine cattle, and will ship In more. He states that in one Instance eight Jerseys netted their owner $73 per head In one year. Common cows, during the same period, netted their owners only $40 each, and consumed twice as much feed as the Jer seys. Mr. Markham does not think there Is the least danger of overproduction. At the present time Linn County prob ably leads in this Valley as to the amount of butter and cheese produced. As to the quantity of milk handled and butter manufactured, the Albany creamery Is probably ahead of Its competitors. Halsey now has a creamery and a cheese factory- There Is also a cheese factors at Lebanon, and Sclo now has a creamery. There has been one In opera tion at Brownsville for several years, and a new cheese factory is to be put in at Foster. During the past three months the In crease in dairy products In Linn and Marlon Counties has been notably large. ' ' - . DONE IN THE COURTS. Decision of Jndce Fraxer In Case Aealnnt City. Judge Frazer yesterday denied the mo tion to file a supplemental writ of review In the case of Mary H. Couch. Clementine F. Lewis et at vs. the City of Portland. The plaintiffs resist the sale of their prop erty, for delinquent assessments for the extension of Fifteenth street from Ter minal street to North Front street The point on which the court based Its decision was that the members of the Common Council. Tho are In actual con trol and posselon of the records, were not served with the writ It was served on Auditor Gambell. The court previously war of the opinion that an amended writ could be filed, but after a careful and exhaustive examination of the authorities submitted by City Attorney Long and his assistant Mr. Duniway, Judge Fraxer took a contrary view of the matter. Judge Frazer held that the Auditor Is only the clerk of the Council, and that they being the responsible official parties who or dered the improvement must be the par ties officially and Judicially notified of tha writ of review. The decision throws tha case out of court In its present form, but it may ba brought up In the equity depart ment There are several similar cases against tho city, the most important one being that of the Willamette Steam Mills. Man ufacturing & Lumbering Company, and In this a decision of the same kind was also not long ago rendered. The court having decided that there can be no amended writ of review, if the equity cases do not stick tho assessments will have to be paid. LARGE WAREHOUSE BURNED Fire Destroy $4500 "Worth, of Prop erty in South Portland: The large warehouse and dry kiln of tha South Portland planing mill, on Front and Grover streets, was burned to the ground yesterday noon. William L. Lalndhard, president and manager of the company operating the mill, estimates the loss at $4500. all but $1000 of which is covered by insurance. The fire started underneath tho dry kiln at the bottom of the deep gulch In which the buildings were located, about 11:30 A. M., and alarms were turned in from box 31 at First and Mead, and box SI at Hood and Wittaker. Tho fire de partment arrived on the scene soon, but could do nothing on account of the ex tremely low pressure In the hydrants. Streams were turned on at eight differ ent places, but they were so weak that the blaze could not be reached. The fire was very hot scorching a fence badly about 50 feet distant and also ruining a number of fruit trees the same distance away. The conflagration was a hard one to fight and it was late last evening before the hard-worked firemen were allowed to depart During the day. thoughtful neigh bors supplied the firemen with sandwiches, fruit, cake, lemonade and other welcome articles of food and drink. Fred Hob kirk, of engine 6, was hit on the hand by a falling pane of glare and an artery was severed. The flow of blood was pro fuse before It could be checked, and he was removed to his home, at 795 Corbett street The fire is probably of incendiary origin, as there Is no other conceivable way of Its starting. About a week ago the fire de partment was called out to extinguish a blaze In the same place, also of mysteri ous origin. The foreman of the mill yes- Jterday explained that several men were discharged a short time ago for Incom petence, who seemd to bear a grudge against the company. His theory Is that these men are seeking revenge In this way. SLIGHT DISCOLORATION. Reason for Sediment In City "Water Sup pi j-. A number of inquiries bave been made as to the cause of the discoloration of the water from the city mains for the past day or two. This discoloration, which has been quite noticeable. Is cause 1 by the electric sprinkler taking water from the city main for sprinkling tho streets. A number of six-Inch gates have been put In in various parts of the city for the purpose of supplying this sprinkler, and they are of a kind which are opened and closed much more quickly than the gates used by the water committee. The sudden opening of these gates causes a rapid flow of water through the mains In their vicinity, and their sudden clos ing causes a "water hammer," which stirs up the sand which was deposited In tho mains when the city's supply of water was pumped from the turbid Willamette. The men In charge of the sprinkler havo been instructed to open and close these gates slowly, but as the sprinkler is op erated while the cars are running, they have to delay traffic as little as possible, and If, while the sprinkler is being filled. a car comes up behind, and the motor man Is anxious for the sprinkler to pro ceed out of the way, the men In charge arc likely to close the gate too rapidly, and thus the stdlment In the pipes Is stirred up. There seems no way of avoiding thU trouble, as It is very desirable that the streets should be sprinkled, but It Is hoped that the matter will remedy Itself in a few days at farthest, and the public will try to get along the best H can until this comes about. The water is not near ly so much discolored as water pumped from the Willamette would be. but the people of this city have become so ac customed to water of crystal purity that they notice the slightest discoloration of their supply.
