CITY NEWS IN BRIEF Ansenent Today. CgHgRA-TS TSEATER--"Hottest Coon MCTgpoUTAN THEATER-MA Young Not x "Weix-Tiked Joke. Some one ut having the fear or the law before his yes and lacking In consideration ror the reelings of others, .perpetrated a so-called Joke on one of the young women stenog raphers employed In the Custom-House. Some patriotic clerk had placed pictures of McKlnJey and Roosevelt In the windows of the room where the young woman "works, she having nothing to do with the matter. A day or two ago. Deputy Col lector R. P. Barnes, who has charge at Civil Service matters In connection witn the Custom-Souse emploes, received a letter -complaining bitterly of the impro riety of these pictures being displayed In & Government office, charging the sienoe xapher with having placed them In the window, and demanding to be Informed "why she had been allowed to commit this breach of official etiquette, and aiso severely reprimanding-Mr. Barnes for per mitting the outrage. This letter was signed by one on the list for a Civil Service position, and caused much.worri znent to the stenographer, who was Inno cent of any wrong, act or intention of doing anything wrong. The letter is said to have been written by some one con nected with the Custom-House, and It is understood that Collector Patterson has lu name on the. Ut for early dismissal. Sixth Street Imfbovemext. The pre liminary estimate of the cost of the pro posed Improvement of Sixth street from Morrison to Yamhill by paving with ltri Hed brick on a cement foundation, has een filed with the Auditor, and will be laid before the Counell today. An em ploye of the City Engineer's office was looking over the ground jesterday and considering what should be done with the platform scale located there for the con venience of the Peit.and Hotel. The plat form is a little above the grade, but as It .stands on a brick and concrete founda tion It is impracticable to lower It. The pavement will therefore be laid without disturbing the scale, and the hotel people will have to build new approaches to the platform, higher than the present ones. As the scale stands on a s.ope and the platform must be le el, one approach will fca a little higher than the, other, but the scale, which Is a great convenience to the hotel people, will In no way ob struct the street. Found Small. Lobsters. A dealer In oysters here reports that In a saok of these blvajves recently received from Puget Sound he found a considerable .number of tiny lobsters, which had en sconced themselves in mussels and oysters, evidently for protection from ene mies,, and for the purpose of feeding on their hosts. The hermit crab, common on the beaches of this coast, uses the shells of whelps, periwinkles, etc., as a habi tation, and It was suggested that the so called lobsters might be nothing but her mit crabs, as it is not known that there are any lobsters on Puget Sound, but the man who opened the oystois and iound the joung crustaceans In them, as serts that they were lobsters and nothing else, as they were completely encased in shells and had long feelers projecting from their heads. If he Is correct It is probable that In a few years there will be plenty of lobsters In the Northwest, which will be a good thing. Street Iktrgvejoekt Done. The Im provement of Stark street, from Third to Seenth, by paving with vltrttied brick on a concrete foundation, has at last been completed. The obstructions on the block fcetw eea Fourth and Fifth Inciden tal to the erection of a brick building de layed the completion of the work for some lme, and when this was finished It wa& found that the asphalt spread on the surface of the block between Third nnd Fourtaj was no good, having been so brit tle that It ail flaked away from the brick, leaving It bare. The centraoters w.re re quired to replace It with a coating or proper material, and this has now been completed, aid covered with a coating of clean sand, and the street Is ready lor acceptance. It presents a smooth, n appearance, and should wear well, tespe-lally as there are no railway tracks on it. 'Must Remove Obstructions Trap-net men have a habit of encroaching on the navigable channels along the Columbia wherever It is to their Interests to do so, and of late numerous complaints have been made by pilots in regard to piles driven by nshernum, where they arc ob structions to navigation. Captain ing fltt. United States Engineers, therefore found It necessary to post notices In Map ping locations and seining grounds along the Columbia, ordering all piles driven in navigable waters or where they are ob structions to navigation, to be removed within 30 das from the date of the no tice. Fishermen, as well as everybody else, must see the necessity for this action, and the piles will doubtless be promptly removed, and. unless a sharp lookout is kept, they it 111 doubtless be re placed next fishing season.

So far ther has not been a regular reasonable and nipping frost, which Is much desired, in order to bring down the leaves, which are still as fresh and green as ever on many maple tree while others are completely stripped of foliage. Every night that has been clear has given promise of a frost, and on one or two occasions there has been traees of frost vlslb.e on bridges and ?laak roadways, after daylight, but every time a fog has come up somewhere between 2 and 4 A. M.and has blighted the frost. ( Presidents op Missionary Societies.

Can Not YoTE.-Jlmmy George, a Chinaman well known along Front street as a buyor of poultry, etc., for a mar ket, and one of the shrewdest buyers on the street, has been O years in the United States ana still has no vote. He came to California in 1SS1, when he was 11 years old, and lived in that state 17 j cars. He says he mined part of the time and also worked for George Sears in a fish market there. He has lived In Oregon 22 years, and is now 61 years old, and It makes him weary to see Chinese boys who were not born until years after ho came to Oregon, casting their votes for McKlnley, while he is left out In the cold. Perhaps If Jimmy George had become a naturalized citizen when he came of age ho might have been entitled to vote. He is old enough, certainly. Using Up Native "Woods. Hardware dealers, crockery dealers and many others now use large quantities of excelsior for packing goods, in the place of hay or straw. It costs a little more, but Is cleaner and makes much better packing. There Is a factory in this city for mak ing excelsior for this purpose, and the amount of wood it uses up is not small. The extensive use of wood In the manu facture of paper hajnade great inroads on the forests of many regions, and has already caused a dearth of cotton-wood timber available In this section, and the paper mills and box factories will soon use up all the available spruce. Street-Car Accident. Yesterday morn ing an electric street-car, leaving the car house of the Fifth-street line, broke away from the control of the motorman, be tween Clay and Jefferson streets. "When the turntable at the foot of the incline was reached, Instead of stopping, the car rushed ahead to the curb, breaking sev eral panes of glass In the car, and In the cigar store with which It collided. Motorman Hunt was thrown against the controller and severly bruised on the knee. The accident Is attributed to the slippery rails, which caused the car to slide when the brakes were put on.

GRDSHAM, Or., Nov. 6 James Manary. who has been operating the most exten sive logging camp on the Sandy River, un der contract with A. H. Powers, has fin ished up the work, and on Friday last he delivered at Troutdale what will probably be the last raft of sawlogs to be floated down that stream. -The recent heavy rains furnished an Ideal stage of water, from a logger's standpoint, and the whole Summer's work, oonsisting of 500,000 feet, was placed safely In the boom at Trout dale according to contract. They -were cut for Cone Bros.' sawmill, which was formerly located there, but will now be taken to "Vancouver, where Cone Bros, have another mill In operation. Mr. Ma nary will go from here to Marshland, on the Lower Columbia, where he will man age two camps one for himself and the other for Mr. Powers. The sawlogs he gets out down there will be sold to some of the large river mills, as the contract with Cone Bros, terminated with the de livery of the raft at Troutdale last week. Logclne by Btcuni. C J. Llttlepage, who has a large saw mill near Brower, on the mountain above Bridal Vail, is making arrangements to do his logging by steam. Ho Is putting In a donkey engine, ana will haul his logs from the timber by means of cables through the forests from different direc tions. . Mr. Llttlepage estimates his present supply of -timber will last about three years, and he Is arranging for the pur ohase of several other large tracts, which will last several years longer. He Is pre paring for business on a large scale, and wlH put In a dam on the stream near his mill, which will create an artificial lake large enough to float many thousand feet of logs right up to the mill and. greatly facilitate the work of handling them. Nearly all of tho lumber from this mill Is shipped from Bridal Veil. Roauhoune nf Gresham. Ford Metzger Is making extensive alter ations and Improvements upon his road house property, at a cost of over $1000. He is endeavoring to give Gresham a first-class resort for bicyclists and others from the city and elsewhere, and to that nd will spare no expense. Artificial Iake. The Apex Transportation Company, lo cated on the mountain above Bridal Veil, has about completed a large artificial lake for the storage of logs. It Is built partly of masonry and partly or logs and earth. About 40 men, 35 of whom w ere Japanese, have been at work on the dam since,early last Spring. It will hold about 3,w3.Qu0 feet of logs w hen completed. " Brief Notes. Mamie ICellar, living at Bnwell Valley, had her left elbow dislocateovon Saturday evening last. She was being chased by a Ioious con-, and fell from a fnce in try ing to ollmb over It whjle escaping from the animal. E P. Smith, a carpenter, fell from a building here a few days ago and is con nived to his home with paralysis of the right side. This was his third serious ac cident of the same nature this se-ason. He Is improving slowly, and will recover. A. T. Preston has the lumber ready for and will begin tho erection of a new build ing at this place.

JAiRYiiiQ ON tAST SIDt STEADY GROWTH OS INpBSTRY WHICH. IS PROFITABLE. Payment Is Kott Blade for Butter Fat Instead, of Milk Construction of Silos. The development of the dairy Interests on Columbia Slough and In Powell's Val ley is progressing rapidly, and these sec tions promise to become prominent in that line. At Falrview, where R. Carlson, of Portland, recently purchased the cheese factory plant of R. Thomas, great prog ress has been made. Last month Mr. Carl son changed the method of paying for milk, which had been paid for at the rate of 75 cents per 100 pounds of milk, without regard to quality. Mr. Carlson now pay& for the butter fat the milk contains, and this meets with the favor of the farmers. There is inducement to get a better qual ity of milk, and they receive more for their milk. The ground for the new plant oh an enlarged plan has been secured, but. the buildings will not likely be put up for some time, but the plans for them have been prepared. There is a fine country surrounding Falrview, and it is all well adapted to cheese and butter-making. At Gresham, the cheese factory estab lished there on the co-operative plan by farmers and residents of the neighbor hood Is doing finely. Tho buHdlng has been renovated, and some modern im provements Introduced for the handling of the cans after the milk has been de livered for washing and cleansing them. The building, is now heated with steam, and stoves are done away -with. The milk comes from a radius of about four miles, and is supplied by about 28 farmers. The product of this factory, and that of the Falrview Is cream cheese,and already It Is of a high grade, and has a growing reputation. Another advance in these dairy districts Is the construction of many silos, so that feed may be kept the year round. Farm ers having cows realize that they must have green feed to keep up the flow of milk through the year, and It Is shown that green feed is preserved in the silos with all its freshness and strength. These silos are being put jip by about a dozen farmers, and others will build them next year for that crop. Most of the silos that have been put up have a capacity of about 60 tons. There Is no loss In pack ing the silos, and the same amount of green feed that goes In Is saved. Seriously III. James E. Bruce, of Bruce & Ayors, Grand avenue, has been confined to his home, at 140 East Sixteenth street, for the past two weeks with a severe attack of bronchitis. He was reported improved yesterday. Mr. Bruce had not recovered from the severe injuries sustained by a fall on Grand avenue about a month ago, and was still quite weak when taken sick this time. He is 80 j ears old. Back From the East. Henry W. Decker, president of the North Pacific Conference and North Pa cific Tract Association of the Seventh Day Adventlsts, residing at EOS East Everett street, retrned Monday from Battle Creek, Mloh., where he attended a meeting of the board of managers of that church. He will leave today on business connected "with the church. Mr. Decker Is a travel ing man, and on the go most all the time, looklng'after the Interests of his denom ination. Joseph DeBnrg Recovering. Joseph DeBurg, son of C. R. DeBurg, of the East Side, who was with the Second Oregon and remained in the Philippines, has been seriously 111 for the past two months. He has been In the employ of & firm In Manila for some time and was do ing well. His parents are much relieved f p receive a letter yesterday stating he Is on the road to recovery. Funeral of Mrs. Thompson. The funeral of Mrs. Anna Thompson, wife of W. H. Thompson, engineer of the school desk factory, East Side, took place yesterday afternoon from Dunnlng's un dertaking parlors. There was a large at tendance of the friends of the family. At the close of the services, the Temalns were conveyed to Lone Fir cemetery. Mrs. Thompson was 28 years old, and leaves a husband and two children. She was high ly esteemed In the community. Itiprappinsr Morrison Bridge. A barge loaded with heavy stones com menced rlprapplng the piers of the Morrison-street bridge. "Work was begun In th center piers. The big stones were handlea with a steam derrick. Some weighed over a ton. This rlprapplng Is done to prevent washing away of the filling around tho base of t&e-plera An examination of the conditions of the piers is made every year, and those needing it aro reinforced with stone. East Side Notes. Captain Cox, of the East-Side Justice Court, says all his children who have been down with diphtheria are recovering rap Idly. None of the other members of the family have contracted tho disease, and he hopes soon all will be fully restored. No other cases In that neighborhood are reported. The disease seems pretty well stamped out. At Sellwood, the children of J. E. Rclnke are down with a mild form of scarlet fever. It Is of the prevailing type of scarlet fever that has been running through a good many families at Sell wood. The surface of the Eighth-street bridge is breaking up badly with the wear. It has lasted now about four years, but the heavy team travel over it is wearing It out. In addition to the ordinary travel, It is now largely used by slabwood wagons. Dr. "Wise, room 614. The Dekum. N. P. VOTING TRUST. May Be Ended at Any Time by the Trustees Themselves. The "Wall Street Journal of November 1 has the following concerning the North ern Pacific voting trust: , "There have been rumors for a day or two that the trustees of the Northern Pacific - oting trust would terminate the trust this Winter, Instead ot waiting for Its expiration by limitation in November of next year. This has been supposed by some to have had something to do with the recent strength of the stock. The voting trustees have had nothing to say on the subject bejond an intimation in one case that a voting trust was sometimes terminated when the object for which it was formed had been accom plished. The voting trust of Erie and or Reading hinged somewhat on the question of dividends on the stocks. The fact that Northern Pacific common has reached a dividend basis may have some bearing on the subject. "F. L. Stetson, attorney of the Northern Pacific Railroad, sas In regard to the voting trust of that road, 'that the agree ment provides for its continuance until November 1, 1M1. unless? the voting trus tees in their discretion make earlier de livery.' "In an official statement Issued by the Northern Pacific Railroad In 1S36, it is stated that 'the stock is held by these voting trustees and their successors Joint ly (under an agreement prescribing the powers and duties to be exercised by them, or by a majority of them, and the method of filling vacancies) until No vember 1 1901, although the voting trus tees in their discretion may deliver and distribute the stock at an earlier date "This practically leaves the duration or the voting trust in the hands of the trus tees themselves. A prominent corporation lawyer when seen la regard t lVHJP PIANO (Extract From Letter at Maurice ' Gran, Dated London, June 4, lOOO.) "It Is my wish, and that of the Opera Company, that the "Weber Fland shall be used at the Opera-House next season as heretofore. The magnificent CocTitt Grands which you have sent tis have more than confirmed, the impression that in tone quality, power and carrying capacity the Weber has no superior in the world. The leading artists, of the Company have pri vately expressed to me their delight In the instruments (both Grahds and Up rights) furnished for their private use, and it is the unanimous verdict tha for concert work, as welT as for accompany lng the voice In singing, the Veber Piano is unequalled." INorthTtestern Agency In Neir Music Building:, Entrance, 351 AVaaltinston St. that he was familiar with the -powers of the, voting trust of the Northern Pacific, and that the duration of it was entirely in their power. He said that this power was generally given the voting trustees, as It often occurred that they succeeded lu accomplishing their purpose before the duration specified in tho agreement." Control of Southern Pacific "Insiders In Southern Pacific continue saying that they know of no change ot control, and regard the talk as wholly speculative" says the "Wall Street Jour nal. "There is no indlc&tlpn that theste rumors are credited in London, as Lon don has been a steady seller in the last rise. Large trading has been a regular feature of each preceding move in South ern Pacific. It 13 worth remembering that tho stock has twice gone from abput 30 to the neighborhood tof 42 with market features very similar to those recently prominent. "We learn that so far as the transfer. books show anything, there has been no accumulation of Southern Pacific In a way to Indicate a purpose of any outside In terest to secure control. It does seem to be a fact, however, that certain recog nized strong speculative Interests have been buying the stock in the open market evidently for a turn, as a speculative mat ter. It is safe to say, also, that the con trolling interests In Southern Pacific may themselves not be adverse to an advance In the price In order to turn over some of their own holdings, but it should be said In justice to them that they do not advise speculative purchases of Southern Pacific stock on margin account. They do look upon the property as having a fine futuro outlook, but they do not advise promiscuous buying by people un able to pay for their holdings and who do not Intend to stay with the property." The Rise In Pacific Mall. "Wall Btreet Journal. The mystery of the remarkable upward movement recently In Pacific, Mail is at last getting to be resolved Into something like a reasonable explanation. It seems. as the story goes, that a certain "Western lnlterest, presumed to bo located in, cni cago, considered that the election of Mc Klnley meant a fresh start for American commerce with the Orient. The picture of our expanding commerce and tho In adequate shipping facilities of this coun try to cope with demands became so real thalt it led to tbo purchase of a block ot 10,000 shares of Pacific Mall "at the mar ket." The stqck has been bought and may bo shipped; to thtt "West. It la fur ther stated that Congress will be eo de luged -with pressing demands for relief to the congested commerce on the Pacific Coast that extensive shipbuilding must be encouraged at once by large subsi dies. Ten Miles far n. Cent. The Dagblad, Stockholm, Tho Russian Government has decided upon tho introduction of specially cheap fares upon the Trans-Siberian Railway, in order to encourage emigration to the country. A ticket from Russia to To bolsk costs only 4s 6d, and. from Tobolsk to any station whatever in Siberia the faro is only 9s. Thus tho tripper can cover about 6000 miles for a matter of 13s (a llttlo more than $3.) Railroad Tfotes. Two fast freight trains for the Eas left Portland last night over tho O. R. & N. The general offloes of tho O. R. & N. Co. and the Southern Pacific were closed yesterday afternoon to give employes op portunity to vote; that is, all but the train dispatcher's offices, which never close. But the operators got time to vote. As an indication that the Oregon Short Line does not contemplate closing its PCTtland office very soon, Agent Conan has been authorized to enter into a three-year lease for an office In the new Falling building, at the corner of Third and "Washington, It will be on tne ground floor, on Third street, Just south of the main entrance, This is not con clusive evidence of the Intent to keep the Oregon Short Lino representation in Portland for three years, for It Is said there would be no difficulty In disposing ot the lease If .It should conclude to close the office.
