THE MORNING OREGONIAN, MONDAY, JUNE 25, 1900, ITY NEWS IN BRIEF HOT Atter Hats. Eats. It is said, de sert a sinking ship, and the foreman at look and ladder house, Xo". 1 can prove it tney desert an abandoned restaurant. restaurant opposite the hook and lad- 3er house "was vacated a short time aeo. land soon after the rats began to leave. 3lngly and in detachments. They -would :omo out at a holo In the foundation of building and scurry up and down the leeraont sidewalk and hunt along the gut ter lor access to some other building. If loieBted. they would scuttle back. An Ingenious fireman got a long board, and placed it on the sidewalk, with one end close to tho hole the rats came out a.t. id when any ventured out the board rould be slid over the bole, and tho chole company and everybody and every log in the neighborhood would join In junting down and Jailing them. The oys bad lots of fun. and even the rats seemed to enjoy the excitement and ex- srcise, but when the question of killing 3V. tne rats to prevent the dissemination f cholera, plague, etc., came up, the rat- iiung was stopped, awaiting the offer ing of a bounty on rats' scalps. As soon las a sufficient bounty is offered, the hole rwiu be unstopped and the slaughter will bo begun anew. The men of flre com- ?any. No. 1 believe that they can se cure enough in the way of bounties to any them all helmets and big white ax-ercoats and silver trumpets to use in iradlng on the Fourth. "Will Fight for Rattan. Superintcnd- fent Hart, of tho street-cleaning depart ment. Is preparing to send a detachment crom his force to assist the powers in ?aciiymg cnina. The department has m unable to obtain supplies of rattan tor street brooms for a Ions time, and lately Superintendent Hart has been in formed that owing to the rumpus in China the price of bamboo has been ad vanced to an unreasonable figure. Bo- core be will pay this he will fight, and lemand a division of the Celestial Em pire, and will take as his share the rat- in growing section. In the meantime, a Itest of split bamboo brooms is belnn made by his force. This is found to answer the purpose very well, and may eventually be substituted for rattan, un less the trouble in China Is soon settled. many people do not know the de ference between bamboo and rattan. It lay be said that the bamboo is a species jf grass, the stems beine hollow and Jointed. It grows under favorable clrcum- Istances to a height of 40 feet, and is set! for more purposes than probably my other plant. Rattan is a small spe- les or palm, having a long, flexible stem. exceedingly tough, and is used for walk ing sticks, wickerwork, chairs, stable arooros, etc. Visited La. Grande. At the meet ing of Sumner Post, No. 21, G. R., Saturday night, a report from ie delegates to the Grand Encampment it Ija. Grande was mado. TWs post had a 7tronig represenitation there and those who cent toad much to cay about what they ad and what they saw. Tht?y admitted. lowover. that they saw much more 'than rhey performed. They secured tho re- slectlon of Judge Mayo as ndjutant-gen- brai. The delegates made their speeches ind gave as good account of themselves is possible, and the evening was pleas- put y spent. Talks were made by Com- mder Bates, E. Martin, Judge Mayo id others. They admitted they were a little afraid of the Indians, and were much jpelleved when tho train on the return trip id passed the reservation and their ilps were still secure. They all agreed that tftiey all enjoyed fine treatment by Ithe citizens of La Grande, and some time In the future -jvould like to get back lero. "Wear a Souvenir Button. The pa triotic season is at hand. In one weeK the Fourth of July will be here with all the Incidental ways of demonstrating, looth publicly and privately, patriotic zeal. reeling or appreciation. Faith without Jwoiks is dead, so patriotism without leeas is worthless. One easy and lnex- jnslvo way of showing patriotism is by Mirchaslng one of tho souvenir buttons oll for the benefit of the monument fcund. These buttons are sold every where. Outside parties can make requi sition on the treasurer, R. E. Davis, who rill send them to any responsible per son who will assist in the sale. Every person marching In a parade In the state should wear one of these buttons; every spectator at a patriotic demonstration khould display one; the movement should je general. Help the cause. A Melican "Boxer." Ah Yen, a Chl- leso cook in a logging camp on the jwer Columbia River, was seen walking lown Washington street yesterday with broken nose, several bruises under the ayes and a countenance covered with jore. Yen told his story as follows: f'l walk back of Impcllal Hlotel. Gen'le- len, he ask me wantee fight. I say. rNo wantee fight." He say fight. I no JghL Ho blackee my nose blackoe my sye knock me down. I say, 'No.' He say 'Yes. He takee my money, $10 golo piece. Good-bye,' he say. I get up I feel welly bad." Ah Yen communicated lis loss to the police station, with a de scription of the "gentleman" who had played the part of an American "Boxer yesterday afternoon in front of the Im perial Hotel and robbed an Innocent Ce lestial of m. Weather "Will Chance. If the feather man and tho host of weather prophets, who carry weather gauges and jarometers in their bones, are to be be lieved, fair and sunny days are here igaln. The old residents say that Port land always has some moist weather tho latter part of June to remind her of what plie will miss during the Summer. Tho Easterners and the Callfornlans believe June rains were devised simply to bring 3n aching bones and troublesome dls irdcrs by the sudden climatic change from sunshine to cloudy mists, and to pause them to listen to apologetic quo- itlons of "what is so rare as a rain In June?" of the native Oregonians. The lln has come and gone: now will en ter the season of undisturbed picnics and axcurslons of all sorts anywhere ana bverywhere. LiqHTsmp Still Hiaii and Drt. Alex- ider Allen, of this city, returned yester- lay from Ilwaco, near where Government lightship. No. 50, lies with her bows high and dry on the beach. He thinks she can jo restored to her proper sphere in the prater by hoisting her bodily on to an Im provised railroad track and hauling her icross a sandsplt for a distance of One illc, when she can be duly launched once lore. Ho says considerable work has een done in trying to get her oft with (he aid of a tug, but the attempts failed. md she was left in worse condition than liver. The lightship weighs about SCO Eons, and the process of lifting her out of iier present position and hauling her cross to be relaunched will be slow and xpenslve. Miss Anna Miller Wood, who will give tho closing recltnl' of the Musical Club Irhursday evening, June 25. at Arlon Hall, is not unknown in Portland. She sang iiere several years ago, being then on ler way abroad for further study. She has gained her present enviable position In the musical world by sheer force oi lent, and it is a rare opportunity to icor an artist of Miss -Wood's Intellect uality interpret such a delightful pro- imme as she has prepared for her Port land audience.

Troubles or Smokers. A street-car conductor complains that between tno smokers and tho women life Is made a burden to him, when open cars are being used. Notices are displayed In the cars stating that the rear two seats only are for smokers. The women, he says, pay no attention to these notices, but seeni bound to get Into the rear seats when ever possible. Men who wish to smoko their after-breakfast or after-dinner ci gar as they ride down town blame tho conductor because he does not keep tho seats allowed them clear of -women, and he says it would bo as much as his life is worth to attempt anything of the sort. The easiest way out of the trouble is for smokers to take these seats, even if there are some women In them. Some women like cigar smoke, and those who do not might learn after a time to take seats where smokers are not allowed. When cars are crowded, of course women must take any seat' they can. and in such cases, of course, no man would insist on his right to smoke in tho rear seat, but permission is generally granted when asked for. A man smoking on the rear seat of a car a day or two ago said to a, woman who climbed up alongside him: "I bono smoking Is not offensive to you." "Not at all," was the reply. "I get used to it at homo, so smoke away." Steaksr Wrra a Histort. The little propeller, Juneau, now undergoing overhauling by the Pacific Commer cial Company, owners, for her trip to Alaska, nt tho foot of East Stark street, has a history. She was built eight years ago on tire East Side, and lay unfinished, sometimes in the water and sometimes on the mud flat between. East A& and East Ankeny streets. There were many suits, criminal and civil, growing out of the craft, and It was not till 1S97 that she was actually completed. During ths building she wrecked the hemes and for tunes of several families living at Tre mosit. But she Is now to enter on anoth er, and what will be a more profitable period of her existence. The Juneau is a screw steamer of 93 tons, and 67 tons register. She Is 80.9 feet long, 15.8 feet beam, and 7.3 feet depth. For her trip north tho little steamer has been strength ened throughout. Bulwarlcs have been built up so as to house the hurricane deck, and the mam deck throughout. Her en gines have also been thoroughly repaired. The intention is to operate her between St. Michael and Nome. Shad at Oregon Citt. An Oregon City fisherman says that many shad have been caught at the falls there this sea son, and they wero larger and finer than in any previous year. He caught one in a drlftnet which weighed 10 pounds. He says that in the evening from the timo it becomes dark up to about 11 o'clock the shad come to the surface and look out of tho water and play around his boat In great numbers, darting about wltli much swiftness, or, as he expressed it, fairly whistling through the water. Con siderable numbers arc caught at tho cas cades of the Columbia, but few get above that point, and still fewer above the falls of the Willamette. George L. Rahmer Dead. George L. Rahmer, an old resident of Portland, died In San Francisco yesterday, at the home of his eldest daughter. Mrs. Alexander. Mrs. W. G. Holmes and Mrs. J. C. P. Westengard. of Portland, are daughters of the deceased, and he also left a daugh ter In Curo. Tex.. Mrs. F. Hanna. A son resides at Klllisnoo, Alaska. Mr. Rahmer was a member of the German Aid Society, and he desired to be buried under their auspices. He left an estate valued at $10,000. If the weather continues favorably, the steamer T. J. Potter will be placed In service for the accommodation of seaside travel on Saturday, June 30. Further an nouncement will be mado in the daily papers. Ellis Printing Co. are now settled in their new quarters. 104 Krst street. "A SPRING CHICKEN.' Farce-Comedy JlnUen n Biff Crowd Laogh nt Cordray'a. "A Spring Chicken" drew a crowded house last night ai Cordray's Theaiter, and the company, though small in num bers, made up in quality what was lack ing in quantity. Tho whole olrow goes with plenty of ginger. There is not enough plot to woary the eivtcrtainmetvt aeeker Just sufficient to give occasion for numerous absurd and laugh-producing situations. A rich uncle from Now York, indulgent to his ne-pnew.Sn Denver, wfto represents himualf as a married man with a family, and draws on his rich relatlvo accordingly. The unexpected arrival of tbo undo neceeslta.te the finding of a wife, a son and a daughter. His land lady consents to the deception and Im personates the wife, much to the chagrin of tho henpecked landlord'; an actor-nxin takt the part of the son, and the nephew's swedtheart the part of tho dauglhter. The first act b devoted to the unfold ing of the story, the second act to spe cialties, and the third act to the final "all-end-happy" ocene and the best of the vaudeville, wherein Ros1; Sutherland and Burt Flatt do the best work of the even ing in their specialties. Rose Sutherland as "Helen French, but bad) on English," is the liveliest bird, on the roost. Hor main difficulty seeniB to be in keeping her fec on the floor, her hlgi kicking and sprightly, lively dancing triroughout trie evening bctag an at tractive feature. Her specialty in the las act as "Ragtimo Liz" wa a good acL Burt Flatt, the actor, was particularly clever In his saxophone and banjo solos and incidental funny monologue In tbe loot scene. Mabel Cossidy deserved her hearty recall In her ballad, "Kathleen," which was rung In a very pretty quality of soprano voice. Harry Armstrong was ludiorous as Ura Jcy, tho henpecked land lord. His make-up and songs in the sec ond act called him back three times. Ed M. Kimball as tho jolly old uncle, and Harry lo Compte as Mosely Broke, the nephew, added materially to the fun. Adah Sherman filled- out tie bill as the landlady very acceptably. "A Spring Chicken" win bo served up for tho remainder of the week. GETTING WEAK AGAIN. Madison Street Draw Threatens to Give Way. The gatekeepers on Madison-street bridge are handling the old draw very carefully these days, as they fear It will collapse some time when It is swinging around. Tho oblique timbers termed "braces" in tho wooden truss aro very rotten at their lower ends, where the timbers fit into the Iron shoes, and tho longitudinal timbers underneath the deck are also badly decayed along their upper surfaces, where the moisture drips in from above. The real condition of theso important timbers cannot be determined further than the eye can discern, but rotten wood may be torn away in chunks from almost any of them. The draw was condemned by the grand Jury last Summer, and the City Engineer has long realized Its condition, but ho thinlrs It safe while the draw Is closed and the ends rest on the piers of the stationary portion. ' One of the bridge officials said yester day that the structure may last for some time by careful handling, or it may col lapse all In a heap, any time, while In motion. The gatekeepers are very partic ular not to permit pedestrians tto remain on the draw while It Is being worked, as strangers would not know how to act or where to jump should the huge frame of wood and Iron crash around their ears. It is expected that the new County Commissioners will take some action to ward rebuilding the draw soon, as it can not reasonably be expected to stand be yond the present Summer. The rods, hog chains and swinging machinery are still in fairly good condition.

OF A FAMILY OF PHILIP M'CrSKKR, AGED 9.1, VISIT IXG PORTLAND. Thomas McCusker. of the Southern Pacific Is enjoying & visit from his father, Philip McCusker, of Danville, 111., at his home, 440 Washington street, this city. Philip McCusker Is a -venerable man, nearly 03 years of ape. For ono who has lived so Ions, he la. remark ably well preserved. There Is Barely a wrinkle on his face, and he has never yet been com pelled to wear spectacles. Ills face Is as ruddy as that of a young' and vigorous man. and It is only within thrco yars that he has used a cane. He has a fine, full head of hair, snowy white, without the slightest suspicion of baldness; his beard is of the same shade. He Is slightly stooped with the -n eight of nearly a century, but shows little Indication of loss of vigor, mentally or physically. He Is able to walk a mile or two dally, which he does for the sake of exercise. He expocbi to remain here for a month or so. Mr. McCusker comes of a family particularly noted for its longevity, his forbears being Scotch-IrUh. Coming from two so rugged race?, they passed down to him a vigorous con stitution. Ills mother died somewhere between the ago of 112 and 115, and his grand mother was older yet. His father met his death by being thrown from a horse when 70. The old ccntlcman has a sister In Ireland, still living, who Is nearly 100; & brother in Rhode Island. 03 years oW. arid another brother at Lowell. 'Jlays., who Is 80. ' Mr. McCusker was about 54 when the Civil "War broke out. but he remembers very well that trying period. He took a great Interest In the struggle, and desired to take part, but was precluded. His Fon here was a little boy then, but he remembers seeing his father In dustriously drilling along with ounger men. Philip McCusker was born In Ireland, and camo to tho United States In 1340. ne has two sons at Danville. Ill . .owe at Dcatur, III., and one here. If his boys Inherit their father's strong constitution they may yet achieve tho distinction of becoming centenarians. Just how tSho "scrap" started, no one could tell, and not even the survivors, who were few and very badly damaged, could throw any light en the subjicL All that is known is that suddenly there was a great uproar in the. store show window and a whole Fourth of July display was under way. A large crowd gathered In the street, but It was Impossible for some timo to ceparate the blUgeroirts. It was worse than the Boxers' Insurrection In China. The crackers wore ilrlng away at each other at a great rate. The pinwiheels and go-dovlls and Dewey chasers wero whtrkng and hissing like mod, and now and then the larger bombs weuld take a hand in the racket. One man who undertook to quell the disturbance was nearly blown out the front door. Tho store was so full of smoke th row could not bo seen vry clearly from tho outside, and the noLo Was like that of a battle. Finally a fire alarm was turned in from the box on East Twonty pecond and East Ankony streets, but by the time the fire coropnt',s reached tho store the ammunition was about exhaust ed, and the battle of the crackers was over. The Jr.sJdo of the store was filled with Knoke, but when that cleared away It was found that no great damage had boin done the? building. Enit Taylor Street. An effort Is making- to start the Im provement of East Taylor stret t, between Enst Sixteenth and Eist Thirty-fourth. There are some prospects that the street will be improved this year. A consider able portion of East Taylor has already been graded out, but some- fills will havo to be made between East Seventeenth and East Nineteenth streets. The street Is planked between East Twelfth and East Sixteenth, and hence If Improved from East Sixteenth there will be a fine high way where it is greatly needed. East Taylor is on tho hlgVst point of the ele vation between Belmcnt street and Haw thorne avenue, and cuts through the heart of Siirnij'sWe'. It is a "promlne'nt street on account of Its location, and for the reawn that many handsome dwellings have sprung up on either side of It. It has not been settled what kind of improvement is wanted, but this will not stand in the way, if the property-owners can once agreo to have tho work done. Closing' Exerclics. The school of the Church of tlo Immac ulate Heart, in. Upper Albmo, under the charge of the Dominican Sisters, closed yesterday afternoon with pleasing exer-. clsos in the assembly hall on Stanton ' street. The hall had been decorated for tho oecarfon.and there was a profuse t aispjay oi ice national colors. A largo audience was present- The programme consisted of music and drills by the chil dren, and there were many attractive features. The audience seemed delighted with the work of the children, who en tered Into the spirit of the entertainment. Miss Elizabeth Hoben presided at the piano and had charge of tho music The drills were Illustrative of tlw poetry and ' graco of motion. When the platform, was crowded with boys and girte they went , through the calisthenics with precision. J The scnool nas nau. a successful year in an lines. Fathers O'Reilly and Curley wero present during the exercises. Pioneer Slovrly Recovering. George Long, a pioneer of the ,48s, liv ing at the home of the late James Taylor, on Sauvle's Island, had been seriously ill, and was in St. Vincent's Hospital for several weeks. He has so far recovered as to be able to return to Ills home. James , Taylor, pioneer of 1534, of Suuvle's Is land, who died about two months ago, had been tho Inseparable friend and com panion of 3Ir. Long. In early days, after the latter had been through the Cayu.e War, he had no home, and Mr.. Taylor gave him one. That was over 40 years ego. The two old pioneers lived together and over their pipe3 lived over the ccnes of pioneer days, until the death of Tay lor terminated cruelly their long friend ship. None mourned the death of the former more deeply than did the pioneer lfrft behind. Everything about tto o"d homestead reminded him of his departed friend. Finally lie became so much re duced that It was feared that he would not live long He was then taken to the hospital, where he grew better, and it is now thought he may live some time yet. Work of the Band of Mercy. Tho Band of Mercy, an organization of the pupils of the Stephens School, under CENTENARIANS. the chargo of Mis3 Eugenia Kern, will close up its work till after vacation next Wednesday evening, June 27. when it will give an entertainment In Gruners Hall, for the purpose" of securing money to de fray haH rent next year. For the past year, tho band has been doing an excel lent and most commendable work In tho matter of Imparting Instructions In the habits and rights of d-umb animals. Wed nesday afternoons meetings have been held in Gruner's Hall, when? talks wero made to the pupils. Great Interest was shown by tho pupils, and tiiey have been ever-ready to take part. As a result of these meetings, tho children know very much about animals and have learned to respect their rights. Miss Kern deserves credit for her zeal. She has been at some personal expense; If the work is to be continued the rent of the hall will havo to bo provided, and it is hoped that from this entertainment enough will bo realized to enable the meetings to again be taken up, after the opening of school in September. Combined to Resist Cycle Tax. A combination of DO wheelmen, work men at the Standard Box Factory, has been formed to resist the payment of the bicycle tax. What course they will take Is not known, but it is figured out that ft will cost these wage-earners many times more than, it would cost tlKcn to pay the cycle tax for several years, before they get through resisting, even If they should be successful. Tho cycle paths on the East Side of the river have benefited the working class more than any others. At any of the mills along the river, the men employed there largely live some distance Out, and use the paths. Hundreds of wheelmen and wheelwomen ride into the city on the cycle paths, and but for them they would have to pay carfare both ways. It is now proposed to further extend the advantages to them, by getting paths on certain streets, but if the law should be knocked out. It would stop oAl this Im provement. Serious Accident to an Eat-Slder. Thomas H. Hanscll, who lives at 479 East Tenth street south, lies in the hos pital at Astoria, with a broken leg, the result of an accident oa Saturday. Mr. Hansell was formerly a foreman at the Southern Pacific carshops, and had been doing- work at Astoria, on. the Astoria Railway.

John Wood, who was severely injured oeveral wee-ks ago while handling a young horse. 13 recovering: The injury was to his left hip, and for a time it "was thought that a surgical operation would be re quired, but although Mr. Wood has not entirely recovered, he does not think that an operation will be necessary. Charles Dakin, formerly of Wolff & Zwlckers Iron Works, has been In As toria for several months superirrtendlc? tho construction of a gascllna engine for a Seattle company. It Is now finished. Mr. Dakin was up from Astoria yesterday and expects soon to return permanently, as his work at Astoria is about comp'.eted. Jack Cooke, the boy preacher, who has been holding' tent meetings on the East Side, for the past two weeks under the ausp!ce3 of the Second Baptist Church, closed up the meetings yesterday. There were three services yesterday, all of which were well attended. It is 3trcted that something over" 303 conversions re sulted frocn theso meetings. Dr. Wise, room 814, The Dekum. COMING ATTRACTIONS. - Sale of Seats for iCellnr Opens Next Friday. The sale of seats for the engagement of the great magician, Kellar, will begin at the box-office of the Marquam Theater Friday morning, and. Judging from the Interest that Is manifested among tho patrons of the theater, it will be unusu ally large. The engagement Is for July 2, 3 and 4, and there Is no doubt that the house will be crowded at every performance, as Portland has not seen the great master of illusion for some time, and his enter talnmpnt Is one which never falls to at tract the attention of music lovers.
