METTEOPOLITAN- THEATER "A Yeans Wife." Das MtrnuLTiON of valuablo books In public libraries by cutting' out rare en gn.vlnea, portraits, etc.. Is not an un common thin?, and a flagTant case which occurred in an Eastern library a short time ago has caused considerable com ment In Eastern papers. Hare pictures are what the thieves are generally after, end they usually operate to fill orders, having- sold the pictures In advance. It Is said that tho greatest and most ex pert thieves In this line are Greeks and Armenians, and It Is asserted that a man Trtxo 1b willing to pay enough for it can cet a portrait from any book in any li brary In the world. One of the librarians connected with the Astor Library, New York, is reported as saying: "As a mat ter of fact, clergymen and women are the most feared by librarians. With the clergymen It is perhaps their idea of the peculiar rights of tho clergy. A clergy man never expects, on going to a li brary, to wait his turn for anything. In stead of being, as might be expected, the most humble, they are exactly the re verse and feel that they are more priv ileged than other people. As for the wo men. It Is a matter of statistics that they are the largest patrons of libraries. When the reference books were on the desks tbers was a good opportunity to make any use desired of the books. Still, in the course of the past 20 years in the Astor library, no woman has been founI destroying" books." LtTOfBER Business at Astoria Lyman, Kinney, a sawmill man, of Astoria, who was at the Perkins yesterday, says the outlook for the lumber business on the Xower Columbia Is very good for the ap proaching winter. His mill has orders ahead from Ban Francisco and other Coast points, while the Government will need a lot of big timber In reconstructing the railroad track on the Columbia River Jetty. Ills mill has a capacity of 75,000 feet in 10 hours, but Is now turning out 150.000 feet in the 24. Much lumber is be ing shipped Bast by rail from Astoria now, as tho rates are the same as from Portland 50 cents per 100 to Kansas City. On spruce the rate Is CO cents through the eeawon. Logs have been plentiful at ?G per thousand, thus far, said he, but there Is some sign of approaching scarcity In the Winter, as- several camps not using donkey engines and tramways will be obliged to close down. When the Tilla mook woods are tapped by rail,, however, logs will become abundant and cheap at Astoria, which has a good hold on the lumber business for a long time to come. Fishino for "Sbwbb Trout." The fishing season for pike, chubs, suckers and such other coarse fish as can be caught off the wharves along the city front, and which go under the general designation of "sewer trout," has now begun. Several persons are engaged In this Ashing, some with hooks and lines only and some with fykes, a sort of trap net, with a funnel-shaped entrance, which are anchored at the bottom of the river and baited with fish offal. There Is a good demand for these fish In the Chinese quarter, and the price paid Is from 2 to 4 cents per pound. A few morn ings ago 140 pounds of these coarse fish of several varieties were caught In one fyke. The fishermen say that the carp, whloh Is generally considered a very stu pid fish, is never caught in their fykes, although many are caught near them with hook and line, the hook being baited with half-boiled potatoes. Chinese to B Dhported. The pros pective Chinese students, Lee Ping and Lam Tou, who were refused admission br Collector of Customs Patterson some time ago, and whose appeal to the United J States Tourt on naDeas corpus resuuea In the Collector's decision being pro nounced final, will probably be deported In a day or two. Unless they shall take an, appeal to the Supreme Court of the United States, which It Is hardy proba ble they will, they will be sent to Ta coma tomorrow to be placed on board a steamer sailing for their native land. Being still young men, there are many things which they can learn there, espe cially If they join the Chineso army and battle with the troops of the Powers. PiCTURBB of Crrr Museum. For several days during the past week a photograph er of Monmouth, who is also a Mazama, and has taken many Iews of mountain scenery, has been engaged in making a series of stereoscopic views, general and special, of the contents of the City Free Museum. Aided and abetted by Colonel L. L. Hawkins, he has taken in all some 40 different views in the Interest of the State Normal School at Monmouth and other schools, the pupils of which will thus be enabled to form a good Idea of the, museum, and many of the most in teresting articles exhibited there. "He In. tends to make magic-lantern slides from many of his pictures. Few Sidewalk Scorchers. There aro not so many bicyclists using Fortlsnd sidewalks this Fall as formerly, although tho close sidewalk season expired on the first of the month. A few years ago cyclists were met everywhere in the su burban sidewalks, which became positive ly unsafe for pedestrians. The wheelmen who use the walks now do not seem to belong to the scorcher class, and they appear to have some regard for othor people's lives and limbs. What has brought about this Improved condition no one knows, b'ut it Is probably due to po lice surveillance, backed by a powerful public sentiment. Bet- or 3 to 1 ok McKinlet. There has been a great deal of talk about bet ting on tomorrow's election, and soma of fers which have not been covered are re ported. Tiie first big bet in Portland, so far as learned, was made yesterday on the general result. A wholesaler here wagered $3000 on McKlnley against $1000, the ?hort end being taken by a Seattle sporting man. B. B. Rich is stakeholder.

Important. Dr. Millard Holbrook, dentist, has opened his offices In the Ablngton build- Bust'Dat Aunca ths! Wate& Front Testerday was a busy time, on the Ains worth Dock. The Norwegian 'steamer Skarpsno was unloading a miscellaneous cargo from China and Japan, most Of which was consigned to the Eastern States and Canada. The longshoremen kent things flying from all three hatches. From' the forward one came boxes ofH porcelain, earthenware and curios, much of which was marked "made in Japan." Tea was hoisted from the center, while the after-hold contained mostly matting and rice. Tho Skarpsno Is a bluff-bowed craft and not as largo as the majority of the Portland-China boats, but she car ries a load of 3000 tons, Including her bunker coal. The bottom of the hold is flat and was covered with a layer of bamboo poles, upon which tho goods were piled. On the dock a large crew of truck ers and foremen were kept on the go dis tributing and sorting. Each consignment was segregated so as to be in good shape when, the time comes to load the cars. Although the work is hard, tho men keep steadily at it from 7 in the morning until 11 at night At the Alaska Dock the British steamer Buckingham was being laden with forage for the Philippines. The hold, to the depth of about oner third, is filled with oats, upon which hay will be piled. DRArNTNo Underorouxd Reservoir. The drainage tunnel, which is intended to put a stop to the sliding of the hill side west of the City Park, is progress ing favorably. A few days ago it had reached a point 890 feet from Reservoir No. 4, and within 20 feet of the bottom of a shaft, which, when sunk to a depth of CO feet, has tapped a seam, or fissure, connected with a body of water, which had filled the shaft to the top. A two Inch hole was bored through tho 20 feet of solid clay, and the water drawn out of the shaft Into a box or drain, at one side of the- tunnel, which conveyed It to the sewer under the reservoir. The tun nel is now being extended to the foot of this shaft, and will soon bo In connec tion with the body of water which has been the cause of the land sliding, but just what the amount of water stored there is no one, of course, knows. That there is considerable is shown from the fact that some 4,000,600 gallons were pumped from it at one time. The water Is supposed to be etoWed in a stratum or deposit of loose rock, and when thUr and other bodies of water of. the same na ture, if others exist, are drained off, It is expected that there will bo no more land-sliding there. Death of William Church. Br. Wil liam Church, St., an old and respected citizen, died at 5 o'clock yesterday morn ing at his home, 384 Front street, where he has resided continuously for the past 37 years, aged 82 years. He has been af flicted with asthma for many years, but the cause of his death was a general breaking down of the system, due to old age. Mr. Church was an Englishman by birth, and, after llvfng In New York State for a number of years, came to Portland In 1854 and was followed the next year by his family. He was one of the first merchant tailors In this city and engaged in that business soon after his arrival here and followed It contin uously up to 1890, when, on the death of his wife, he retired, his widowed daugh ter keeping house for him, and for the past two years has, owing to feebleness, scarcely been out. He leaves three sons and two daughters. Mr. Church was an, honest, law-abiding man, a good citizen and neighbor, and had the respect of all Who knew him. The funeral will take place from Trinity Church at 2 P. M. to morrow. The Interment will take place at Rlverview Cemetery. Sturgeon Coming. The close season for sturgeon, ended November 1 and a few small specimens have made their appear ance in the markets. The open season lasts till March 1, and till that time stur. geon can be sold by any one who can catch! them. The sturgeon In the Colum bia were practically exterminated sever al years ago,, and After they were all gone -a law was passed for their proteo-. tlon. under this protection a new gener ation is growing up, but they have not attained a very large growth yet. 'it will probably be quite a number of years be fore any very large ones will be caught, as it must take some time for a sturgeon to attain a length of 10 to 12 feeC which was not an uncommon size for them a few years ago. The small fish, however, were always accounted the best, and so people who like sturgeon will have a chance to enjoy the best for some time to come Life Underwriters Meet. A meeting" of the Life Underwriters Association of Oregon was held at 3 P. M. Saturday, and constitution and bjvlaws were adopt ed. Officers were elected as follows: C W. Sherman, president; W. S. Pond, first vice-president; H. G. Colton, second vice president; Richard H. Pickering, secre tary; T. H. McAllls, treasurer. An ex ecutive committee was also appointed, consisting of C. A. McCargar, H. G. Col ton, William Goldman, D B. Morgan and B. T. Scott. Regular meetings are -to bo held the first Saturday evening of each month, and the benefits to be gained by this association through a closer contact with the field man will appeal to all agents who are desirous of clean and le gitimate competition. Tho "Oregon" As sociation will join hands with the Na tional body as soon as the association Is In good working order. Work on Stlvja de Grassb Reef. CaptalnLangfitt,Un,lted States Engineers, Is getting things in readiness for begin ning operations on the work of remov ing a portion, of the Sylvia de Grasse reef, which projecta Into the ship canal just above Astoria. He ajso has had driven a row of piles and dolphins, some .of wood and some of Iron, marking the south line of the proposed channel, which Is to be 260 feet wide and to have a min imum depth of 25 feet, and from this tlmo on until the completion of the work a white light will be displayed nightly from the piles at each end of the row. About 150 feet of the projecting point of the reef Is to be removed, which will make the channel straight and avoid tho curve there, which has long been a trouble to pilots. Novel Church Entertainment. The Junior Auxiliary of St. Stephen's Episco pal Chapel gave a very successful enter tainment in the Parish House Friday evening. The feature of the evening was an, art gallery containing humorous pic tures, supposed to be painted by member of the congregation. A large frame. draped with autumn leaves and hidden by a curtain, was used in displaying the pictures. The hit of the evening was known as "the heavenly twins." by one of tho prominent members of the congre gation. When the curtain was drawn back, pictures of McKlnley and Roosp. velt were displayed. The entire audience rose to their feet and the room resounded with cheers. To Defeat the Machine. If tho "citizens" wish to sustain their victory ot last June, and secure such legislation as a primary election law, Sunday clos ing of barber shops, vestlbullng of street cars, and the readjustment of the Po lice Commission, they are wIfo in sup porting Oscar L. Cox for State Repre sentative, as he is the only candidate who champions these reforms. This Is a splendid opportunity to again rebuko the "machine." Barber Missing. Harry Mansfield, a barber, living at G56 Third street, has been missing since October 20. He was last seen on that date in a Third street saloon, and no trace can be found of him since then, and 'his wife is greatly alarmed. He Is 45 years old. has light hair and complexion, blue eyes, is 5 feet S Inches tall, weighs 115 pounds, and wore a black Fedora hat. Prohibition Meeting Tonight. There will be a Prohibition meeting at A O U. W. Hall this evening. Addresses will be made by Rev. Huber Ferguson. Rev. F. E. Coulter and others. There will be singing by the University Park Trio. C. EL S. Wood and W..B. Robertson at Marquam Theater -this evening. Fathers of the Parade-Tba -success of the Saturday night parade, when the thousands' of Republican voters in the city were marshaled into line, was due to the untiring efforts of L. D. Cole, Fred W. Mulkey and Captain Charles E. Mc Donell, upon whom tho labor of stirring up enthusiasm in the local campaign has fallen. When the plan of having a great parade was first suggested, they were discouraged on every hand by fears that it would prove a frost, and it was only through their constant work that the procession materialized In its final form, as the best political parade ever seen In Portland. The duty of stirring up inter est equipping the thousands with lanterns- and torches, all fell upon them, but with the Rough Riders' Club as a faith ful nucleus, they took up tho work and carried It to a successful Issue. No three men have worked harder or deserve greater credit for Infusing energy and enthusiasm into tho local campaign. Oscar L. Cox, Prohibition and Citizens Legislative candidate, was prominent in and had much to do with the success of the Citizens movement In the June elec tion. From the first he has been an ear nest advocate of a primary election law. He Is pledged, 1ft elected, to use every effort to secure the passage of such law. TROUT PLANTING A SUCCESS Grayling and Rainbow Trout Thriving In Oresron Streams. Last Spring the Oregon Fish and Game Association made its first attempt at trout WATCH FOR ELECTION RESULTS. The Oregonian Will Flash the News From the Tower See Bulletins, Too., e 0 e e e e e o o e o e e O e. o 9 The Oregonlan has made arrangements to display election re turns Tuesday night by stereoptlcon, and it will likewise announce the results by flashlights from the tower and the top of The Ore gonlan building. -The building will have the same brilliant Illu mination shown Saturday night, and a code has been arranged -by which the lights can be made to announce to all watchers "who is elected, or whether the result is in doubt Here is the code: McKlnley - 2 flashes (pause), 2 flashes (pause), 2 flashes Bryan 3 flashes (pause), 3 flashes In doubt 1 flash (pause), 2 flashes, and repeat At 11 o'clock at tho latest The Oregonlan will make an announce ment, but' if the result Is assured before that time THE NEWS WILL BE FLASHED AT ONCE. "Very likely it will be Renown. If, for example, New York goes for McKlnley, the election is settled, and it may be learned at an early hour exactly what New York has done. Watch the bulletins. in front of The Oregonian office for the re turns from, all the states. .' o o e o o o o o o o o planting in this state. Through the ef forts of the officers of the association, 50,000 graylings and 25,000 rainbow trout were planted in the Blue Mountain re gion of Eastern Oregon, near Meacham. The fish were distributed among several streams, the branches of Birch. Mackay and Meacham creeks receiving the bulk of them. These are all Ideal trout streams, but had been practically de pleted by the fishermen and sportsmen who for many years have come from all parts of the country to fish In that vicinity. The secretary of the association has re ceived' the gratifying information from members at Pendleton and vicinity that "the first undertaking of the association in this work of propagation has been a de cided success. 'The -fish were all planted where they will receive the waitchful care of members of the association until they are large enough to be taken In legitimate sport When planted, the rainbow trout were about an Inch long. Most of them are now about three Inches long and so greedy and gamey that It Is difficult to pre vent them from swallowing a fly hook when cast Into the watt,r. The graylings do not develop so rapidly, but are growing and thriving well In their new environ ments. Sportsmen will not be allowed to molest these fish until they are have had an opportunity to attain the proper and law ful size; but In a year or two excellent fishing may be expected In the above named streams. Encouraged by the success of its first effort at fish propagation, the association will continue its good work in this line, and In the early Spring seyeral streams In Western Oregon will receive attention. In fact, the secretary had hoped to bo able to secure some young trout fry this Fall to be planted In streams near Port land, but the lateness of tho season and the difficulty In ohtalnlng tho eges have prevented the successful carrying out of the work this season. He has, however, been assured of a large supply for next Spring, when the work of propagation trill be -again taken up. DEATH OF. PRESLEY DENNY Brother of the Late O. If.

General "Verdict That Pictures Were the Finest That Have Been, Seen, in Portland. The annual print exhibit that has just closed at the rooms of the Oregon Camera Club has been the delight during the week of crowds of art-lovers, who haye never tired of visiting it at odd moments and drinking in the beauties of some striking print in cool, gray platinum, or on the warmer, richer tones of carbon. And they brought their friends, too. AH during the week the hospitality of the Camera Club was appreciated, and never in the history of that organization of tal ented workers has such a uniformly cred itable exhibition been shown to the pub lic. The work of some of the members stands out like pinnacles above the rest, but the most delightful thing about this year's collection Is the fact that there are dozens of exhibitors who have reached the first rank, with negatives and prints that could not be excelled In the choice of subject development of the negatives, and In artistic printing and mounting. Under the tutelage of Miss Lily E. White, the club demonstrator, this great prog ress has been made, and the contrast be- e c o e o o e o e o e o o o o o o o o e o o e o o e o o tween the past exhibitions is greatly due to ner assistance and instruction. Commonplace the Camera Club's an nuals have never been. But never before have the members been so ambitious In their choice of subjects. And the treat ment In almost every instance Is grace ful and original. Several, like F. A. Shogren and Fred A. Routledgt, have achieved fine results in their daring at tempts. No more striking single piece ot work was displayed than Shogren's prize winner, "Stranded," and Fred A. Rout ledge's "Silver Birches," seen In a misty morning light is one of the gems of the whole -exhibit Never have there been seen In previous years somany,, carhop and platinum prlnW; arid, although rhtisr difficult to handle, the results' "have been 'most successful. As trtual,'Edgar Felloes has hung up a collection, unrivaled for Its charm and novelty. Many are prize winners at other out-of-state exhibits, and that suqh results can be achieved by photography seems marvelous. A print never previously exhibited, "He! he! Ha! ha!" of laughlfig children, Is one of the most striking character studies that Mr. Felloes has ever hung up for public view. The prize collection of Harry G. Smith has already been noticed,-and was great ly admired. Walter B. Beebe's exhibit was one of the finest hung up, and the four studies, "Evening," "March Morning." "Summer Afternoon," and "Autumn," were ad mirable In their treatment, showing a mastery of the effects of the platinum prints and the warm, rich reds of the carbons. Alfred L. Beebe also had a notable collection, In which "Twilight"1 with Its quiet shades, and "Oaks," with its clear detail and rich coloring, were the most admired. In character studies, D. .Ellery's two humorous prints, "There Were Just Two, and the Other One Was Booth," and MDo Actors Ever Eat? Well, Yes, Sometimes " were excel'ent actor poses. In 'which the expression, full of quiet humor, was clev erly caught Will H. Walker's character study, "A Winning Hand," where the Imperturbable face of a poker player Is displayed with the strongest light and shade effects, like a daring sketch In black and white. I. N. Cohen's "Medita tion" is quiet In conception and excel lent In treatment. In portrait work, I. N. Llpman entered an excellent likeness of Alex Bernstein, admirably posed and with an effective background. The portrait in character of Miss Alice Slbson, by Miss Lily E. White, club demonstrator, and her other portraits, attracted general at tention and praise In the exhibit. In landscape work and beautiful snatches of scenery, the prints entered could not be excelled. Miss Maud Ains worth's "In Harbor" was a beautiful moonlight effect at Redondo wharf. AUred Anderson secured a fine effect In his "Rainstorm, Baker's Bay," with the sun s rays breaking- through the clouds. 1m E. Anderson's "Mount Jefferson, 6 A. M.." Is a noteworthy study of the mountain In the misty shades of morning. Hosmer K. Arnold entered an exceedingly fino view of 'tfount Hood Western Slope," taken with a telephoto lens from the sum mit of Larch .Mountain, showing the mountain In clear outline, the low ridge of foothills below, and In the foreground the top of the larch trees below Larch Mountain. A. Gavin, the club president, has several gems In his collection, "Early Morn." "A Mountain Fastness." and- a fine view of the port at evening. L. T. Gilllland had entered "The Chicago-Portland Special," showing the train swinging at full speed around a curve. J. V. Holmes' "Twilight In the Harbor" is a fine study, being one of the gems of the collection. George W. Hoyt's "Old Ocean," and Will H. Walker's "The Sea," and Mrs. W. S. Slbson's sea pictures all give fine views of the ocean in its varying moods. For fine treatment and excellant scenic effects, E. Y. Judd's Is one of the best - collections. His "Old Japanese SawcMUl." and the "Gathering tonn (Mount Fuyi. Japan)" are as- fine of their kind as could be obtained. Mrs. Charles E. Ladd has some novel studies. One of the most striking, both in symbolism and execu tion, is "Youth and Old Age," in which a butterfly is seen hoverlns near a dead fireweed, and the delicate tracery and fine execution made It one of the' most notable prints hung up. "THB YOUNG WIFE." Frank Tannehill Makes a Hit at the Metropolitan. Frank Tannehill scored a decided suc cess last night at the Metropolitan The ater, in his new play, "A Young Wife." Tho capacity of the theater was taxed to its utmost by a very enthusiastic au dience, who entered thoroughly into the spirit of the play and enjoyed hugely the homely, quaint humor of Dobbins from Vermont as Interpreted by Tannehill. Manager Jones has been particularly fortunate In his billing of attractions thus far this season, and the present engage ment of "The Young Wife" company Is more meritorious than the average. The story of the play deals with the per fidy of an undutiful son, tho murder of the father, the discovery of an Innocent young woman, the wife of tho adopted son of the murdered man, in such cir cumstances as would cast not only sus picion upon herself but upon her hus band, the complications arising from the young wife suspecting her husband and the husband suspecting the wifo of tho crime, form a very interesting drama. Every entry of Frank Tannehill as Horace Greengage Dobbins, of Vermont in lovo with every and any pretty girl, but es pecially in lovo with the charming Grace Douglas, as portrayed by Dora Booth, was the signal for the audience to settle back in their seats for the enjoyment of a refreshing bit of comedy. Not boister ous nor rough as the ordinary stag char acter of the up-country man. but breezy and brisk, with enough of the un-pollsh to make his acting an excellent foil to the finished society airs of the ladles with whom he Is constantly thrown In contact Not only was his comedy work consistent throughout but his singing of Every thing 'Is Lovely on the Bowery" In the den scene of the second act scored a decided, hit. In the cast tho ladles were particularly good. Ethelyn Palmer as Ethel Douglas, tho young wife upon whom suspicion had been thrown, showed marked dramatic power. Dora Booth, as Grace Douglas, the sweetheart of the wideawake Vermonter, was dressy and picturesque and well met the require ments of the part. Mrs. Marks' por trayal of Eflle Glllett, was a clever char acter of the rough element. Stella, the ward of Edna Dorman, was bright and vivacious. Ernest Howard, the villain, and Carl Stockdale, the young husband under suspicion, were satisfactory In their respective roles. "The Young Wife" will bo tho attraction until Friday evening. MR.
