drilling than asphalt. Asphalt Is far bet- I

as become sleek from much use or danc

Nicholson block pavement would be the

the light wear of soldiers marching

Fishermen Recetytno Pat. A large
number of fishermen from the seining
grounds on the lower river were in the
city yesterday drawing their pay for the
season's work. Many of them had quite
a snug sum coming to them, and one
(firm Interested in the canning business
paid out over 5003 in cash to them. Glll
netters generally had not so much money
coming to them as usual, but a number of
them received $300 to $500 each, and some
of them more. The men say all fishing
has been suspended, with the exception of
one place, where some salmon are being
caught for salting for Winter use. The
run was about over when the season end
ed, and the men were very glad to quit,
and the horses were also glad. Hauling
a seine and slopping about in the water
all day long, day after day, is very hard
work for man or beast, and the poor
horses, who have no gum boots and do
not even wear shoes, get the rheumatism.
The fishing season has turned out better
for all -concerned than was expected,
even the wheels at the cascades taking
their share.

Deady, and were held to appear before

PROFIT IN BELGIAN HARES
it
Is Xo Fnd, bat a Pure-Food.
Money-Making? Industry.
"The Belgian hare is no fad. and the
raising of Belgian hares for market has
become a legitimate enterprise, like the
raising of cattle, sheep and hogs," said
George W. McCoy yesterday. He has a
10-acre tract devoted to fhe raising of
Belgian hares just cast of Montavllla,
and says there are now over 300 on the
place, and that in three months these will
have increased to COO.
"What do I raise them for? Why, to
sell the meat. I can get 22 cents a pound
In Portland for all I send In, and hare
at 22 cents a pound Is cheaper eating than
beef at 15 cents. The better class of res
taurants and hotels take all I can raise,
and would take more.
"There is no waste about a Belgian
hare. A pound of beef has on an average
a quarter of a pound of bone and fat
that cannot be eaten, and so this must
be thrown away.
"The hare costs less to raise than a
chicken, because he eats clover and
wheat hay, while the chicken will ea
nothing but grain. The chicken eats ev
erything dirty, but the hare will not
touch any food that is foul. The .hare
will produce four times more In the way
of Increase than the hen In the course
of a year, and do It at less than one
tenth the cost. There Is where the profit
Is all in favor of the hare, and against
the chicken. A doe will produce 144 rab
bits In 12 months. This beats the most
prolific hen I ever heard of.
"The Belgian hare business has been
carried on extensively in New York State,
and the supply of hare meat bas never
yet come up to the demand. In the old
countries Belgian hares have been raised
for generations, and such cities as Lon
dpn, Paris and Berlin consume hundreds
of tons annually. The business Is only In
Its Infancy around Portland, not more
than 15 persons being engaged In raising
the hares for the local food supply."
The only trouble Mr. McCoy has Is
with dogs, which will get In and kill the
hares just for fun. unless fenced out.
The up-to-date Belgian hare ranch will
therefore have a dog-tight enclosure to
guard against the marauding canines of
the neighborhood.
LEARNING WESTERN OREGON
Archbishop Christie Xotes Greatest
IV'eetl of Const Counties.
Archlblshop Christie, who returned re
centlj from quite an extended trip
through Tillamook and Coos Counties,
was surprised at the Immense resources
of those regions In the way of lumber,
dairying and fruit. "And yet," he said
yesterday, "that magnificent country Is
all tributary to San Francisco, although
only a few miles from Portland. The
ease with which a railroad could be built
to connect the coast region with tills
city Is apparent to any person -visiting
that region from this side, There are
several bright and busy towns In Coos
County, and a railroad Is now being
operated for a short distance toward
Roseburg. This might be completed to
a junction with the Southern Pacific at
comparatively little expense and thus the
coast people would have an outlet to
Portland.
"The Tillamook country could easily be
tapped from some point on the West
Side railroad and this would direct a
large and growing trade from San Fran
cisco to Portland, where it rightfully belongs."

Up to the last minute before the spe
cial meeting of the Common Council con
vened yesterday no one could be found
around the City Hall who would admit
that he knew what the meeting had been
called for. It was, however, soon seen
that the object of the meeting was to
consider legislation intended to "discour
age" circuses and other "attractions"
from showing in this city during the
Street Fair. The matter was talked of a
week or two ago, but was laid over, and
the special meeting was called yesterday
to take action in the matter.
It would seem that the showmen to be
discriminated against have " not been
caught napping, as Clay Lambert, repre
senting Rlngling Bros., of the "World's
Greatest Shows," arrived here Sunday
night and yesterday morning appeared at
the City Hall and tendered JSOO to the
Deputy City Treasurer, asking for a li
cense for Rlngling Bros.' circus to give
four performances here on the 6th and
7th of September. The Deputy Treasurer,
acting, it Is said, under advice of City
Attorney Long, declined to receive the
money. Mr. Lambert then tendered the
money to one of the clerks In the Audi
tor's office, who, of course, had no power
to accept it.
It may be remarked incidentally that
agents of circuses are not usually in the
habit of paying for licenses so far In ad
vance, and that of late years they have
generally applied for a reduction of the
license of $125 for each exhibition, and,
if memory serves, have generally suc
ceeded In having It cut in two, and that
generally most of the Councilmen have
had reserved seats, at the circus. But
that has nothing to do with the case in
hand.
When the Council convened, Maybr
Rowe in the chair and seven members
present Glisan. Nealond, Holcomb and
Walker absent Circus Agent Lambert
was present, attended by Thomas O'Day
as counsel.
The flrs't thing that came up was an
ordinance to amend an ordinance regulat
ing the issuing of licenses so as to make
It proylde that circuses of the first class
shall pay a license of $5000 for each per
formance, and circuses of the second and
third classes a license of $4000 for each
performance; circuses of the first class.
With a menagerie, $6000 for each perform
ance, and circuses of the second and third
classes, with menagerie, a license of $5000
for each performance, and every side
show a license of $500 per day.
The license having been read twice, Mr.
O'Day, counsel for Rlngling Bros., was
granted permission to address the Coun
cil. He said he appeared for Rlngling Bros.,
who expected to exhibit here September
6 and 7. He took it for granted that
the Council did not wish to do a wrong
to anybody. Rlngling Bros.' circus trav
eled in some 65 cars, running In three
or four sections. They have to make con
tracts with railroad companies for trans
portation month.'; In advance. They had
made a contract with the Southern Pa
cific ComDanv in November lnt. Thp.v
had to go through Portland, whether they'
exhibited here or not. If they could not
exhibit here they would be put to great
loss. Their representative had tendered
the money for two days' licenses and its
acceptance was refused. As he under
stood It, the power to tax was not power
to prohibit. He did not believe that the
Council had power to prevent the Ring
ling Bros, from exhibiting here; that is,
no power to pass a prohibitory ordi
nance. It had been suggested that Rlngling
Bros.' show was headed for Portland on
account of the Street Fair, and that the
ordinance under consideration was In
tended to protect this fair. He believed
that the members of the Order of Elks
generally would see that the circus would
not Injure them, but would do them good.
A circus could not successfully compete
with a street fair, especially in the even
ing performances. .Everybody desired to
make the Street Fair a success.
Tho circus was compelled to come here
on September 6 and 7. They would like
to make a change and come later, If
possible, but they cannot. Mr. O'Day
asked If there was some way that this
ordinance might not be made to apply
to their circus. If they have to stay
here without-giving a performance they
will suffer a loss. He did not know what
they would do, but ho appealed to the
Council as fair-minded men to do what
was right in the matter.
City Attorney Long said he had recom
mended tho passage of this ordinance. It
was perfectly legal, and he thought if
40,000 or 0,000 people were attracted here
and the circus came and made $40,000 or
$50,000 It was only right that they should
pay some of it to the city. He did not
consider the license prohibitory, nor was
It so In the judgment of the Council.
Bronaugh said he had expressed his dis
approval of this measure, and he wished
to explain his vote. He did not wish to
oppose a measure which tho Council con
sldered right, and, while this ordinance
was opposed to his conscience, and what
he believed to be right, he should vote
with his colleagues for Its passage. The
ordinance was read a third time, put on
its final passage, and passed by a unani
mous vote, and the Mayor at once at
tached his signature to it.
Other Business.
An ordinance authorizing the committee
on health and police to receive bids for
the sale of the old crematory at Rocky
Point, and to sell it to the highest bid
der, was passed.
An ordinance was Introduced by Merrill
providing for appropriating $100 out of the
general fund to pay. for 16 settees for the
plaza blocks. An ordinance providing for
the purchase of thesesettees was passed
by the last council, but was vetoed by
Mayor Storey. Mr, Merrill urged that,
now that the Thompson fountain was
about completed, It was very desirable to
have more settees on the plaza blocks,
and there was an opportunity to secure
them very cheaply now.
Masters suggested that as there was to
be a Park Commission before long, and
a special tax was to be levied for beau
tifying the parks, under their direction,
It would be as well to leave it for them
to look after these settees. He did not
favor taking anything out of the general
fund for this purpose. On motion, the
ordinance was referred to the committee
on parks and public property.
An ordinance was passed authorizing
the license committee to contract for
license tags for the quarter beginning
October 1 and for the year 1801.
An ordinance was Introduced by Sher
rett allowing .the riding of bicycles be
tween 6 and 9 A. M. and 4 and 7 P. M. on
the west side of Mllwaukle street, from
Holgate to Franklin street.
It was explained that owing to the bad
condition of that street worklngmen had
been granted the privilege of riding on
the east sidewalk during the hours named.
The Intention of this ordinance was to
change to the west stde of the street,
where there are no stores, and to ex
tend the privilege five blocks. This expla
nation being satisfactory, the ordinance
was passed.
A resolution directing publication of no
tice for the Improvement of Sixth street
from Morrison to Salmon was introduced.
Branch objected to It on the ground that
the improvement in front of the Post
office would have to be paid for out of the

AS HIS OWN LAWYER.
Dixon, the Real Estate Swindler,
Conducted His Defense.
Mrs. Mattie Frost and George Dixon,
alias Dana, arrested on the charge of
forging a deed to property belonging to
Henry Wilson, deceased, had their pre
liminary examination before Judge Cam
eron yesterday, and were bound over to
the grand jury. Mrs. Frost, through her
attorney, Henry E. McGinn, waived ex
amination, and was placed under $2000
bonds.
Dixon, on the other hand, demanded a
hearing, and conducted his own case,
stating to the court that he was an at-torney-at-law.
He cleverly cross-examined
the following witnesses called by tho
prosecution: Mark Schlussel and Julius
Adler, the real estate men; W. C. Puffer,
Notary Public; S. C. Beach, County Re
corder; Paul Hulter, John Sexton and J.
J. Curtin, messenger boys and Walter
J. White, who made the Henry Acker
man seal.
Dixon was identified by the messenger
boys as the man who had received tho
deeds and the seal, and their evidence
was damaging. Dixon, in his cross-examining,
endeavored to bring out evidence
of complicity between Mark Schlussel
and Mrs. Frost. He was bound over to
tho grand jury in the sum of $2500.
ARRESTED HIS CONFEDERATE.
Dixon's Pal Falls Into tbc Hands of
Seattle Police.
Chief of Police McLauchlan received
the interesting news last evening by tele
phone from Chief of Police Reed, of Seat
tle, that a confederate of George Dixon,
alias Dana, had been arrested in Seattle,
At the same time Chief Reed confirmed
the belief of the Portland police that
Dixon had been working in Seattle, and
was the man engaged In a similar real
estate swindle, with tho object of selling
a piece of property belonging to a Port
land woman, Mrs. Blinn. This scheme
was discovered through the publicity
given to the transfer, and the news of
the attempted fraud reached A. B. Jack
son, of Portland, Mrs. Blinn's agent, who
took steps to have the conspirators ar
rested. , ,
Regarding this phase of the case, Chief
of Police McLauchlan said last evening:
"I received the news this evening of
the arrest' of Sherrlt, the confederate of
Dixon in the attempt to sell a piece of
property belonging to Mrs. BUnn, of
Portland. Their scheme was the same
that was worked successfully in Portland.
They forged a deed to tho property, and
were just completing the sale, when a
notice of the transfer of the property
appeared in a Seattle paper. Friends of
Mrs. Blinn noticed this, and the news of
the sale reached her agent, Mr. Jackson,
of Portland, who put the Seattle police
in possession of the facts, and they start
ed to work on tho case.
"Our man Dixon escaped arrest from
the officers by jumping out of a window.
He then evaded the Seattle officers ani
came to Portland, and had another deal
perpetrated before they got track of him.
Reading the accounts In The Oregonlan,
Chief Reed made this inquiry and found
we had his man. He told me if we could
not convict him down here, to send him
up to Seattle, where he thought they had
a clear case of forgery against him."

Information.
Relieve your eyes In every pos
sible way. Use glasses as boon as
any benefit may bo derived from
them. The most valuable Ideas In
the construction of spectacles are
but a few years old. The most val
uable methods and Instruments of
the present day for the examina
tion and correct diagnosis of vis
ual Imperfections have been given
to us within a short period. I havo
made myself familiar with these
methods, and have the best Instru
ments in my possession. Accuracy
in fitting the face with the proper
frame is as Important as the fit
ting of the lenses. It requires skill
and experience. I HAVE BOTH.
Safe, honest advice is yours in
every case. Seo me about it.
