Notwithstand tag the weather on Sunday was too fine to be "good for ducks." all the hunters who went out had very good success. A. Very jolly crowd of about 20 came up from the Island Sunday evening, all of whom had as many ducks as they need ed. Watt Montelth, who shot 36 big honker geese at Deor Island, had to leave wen to be brought up on a larger boat yesterday, aad If he could have killed all the geese he saw he would have had enough to load an ocean steamer. At Morgan's place, some 175 ducks and four geese fell to two guns, and others did al most as well. One sportsman said he shot about 50 mallards and then stopped, &s he did not want to pack them to the boat or to pack them all around town to five them away. One shooter who had both ducks and geese saw a swan hang ing In a market, and said If it was a young one he was going to buy it. He and some of his friends bad swan for din ner a week ago. and found them better than either ducks or geese. Of course, swan are not always so toothsome, but when they are young and fat they are hard to beat. Much the greater number of ducks shot on Sunday were mallards, the proportion of trash ducks being very email; Interesting Rbuef Map. A relief map of the United States Is attracting a great deal of attention at the city free museum. In size, it Is about that of the average wall map. but it bulges out as though cut off the globe, and shows the actual rotundity of that portion of the earth within the boundaries of the United States. Elevations on Its surface show the comparative heights of mountain ranges: and depressions give an Idea ot III C?uh ,of the lakes- The map also Ehows the long, slanting level at the edge i- i oceans and Indicate the real width of the country's foundations, which extend far out Into the Atlantic and Pa. cine. The course of the principal rivers, trom their sources in the mountains to their outlets on the coast, are plainly indicated, and a few minutes study of Us prominent details will give a person points not previously appreciated.

"Hands Off." Street Improvement Bonds. Auditor Devlm advertises today for bids for the purchase of $35,000 of street improvement bonds, which amount, it is supposed, 1H T,6 1 a" the bonds ot tMs Und that it wm be necessary to Issue before the law Is amended or repealed by the Legisla ture This will be the last batch of these bonds on which the city will have to pay the interest for the benefit of the public spirited borrowers. The bonds are a safe and good investment, and should be pur chased by some of the citizens of Port land. They pay 6 per cent semi-annually, and as there Is now J7S.O00 in the sinking fund to redeem them, they are as good as wheat. There is plenty of idle money here, and several small capitalists might combine to purchase them and keep the Interest from going out of the city. Some of the last two batches sold were kept here. The premium paid on the last lot was only 3.S6 per cent.

A horse at tached to a butcher wagon belonging to Thomas Duffy created a sensation on Third street yesterday by running down that thoroughfare from Market to Sal mon Etreet In a perfectly reckless man ner Pedestrians skurried out of his way, and teamsters dodged into cross streets as tbey saw the animal coming, and luck 1 y no collision occurred. The horse had simply started for Frazer's livery stable for his dinner, but by the time he reached there the wagon was minus seat, cush ion and everything else that was loose en its bed. His Miraculous Escape. William Saul, a machinist, who was caught by a. re0A!ng crank ,at "tff & Zw laker's Irci -works, two weeks ago, and whirled around 120 times before he was released, set out of the hospital Sunday. He looks little the worse for his Involuntary whirl, and sas he never lost his presence of mind while speeding through the atmos phere. He managed to get his arm around the horizontal shaft, and although fc.s feet struck the celling at each revolu tion, he escaped without broken bones. Improving Barnes Boad. The Board of County Commissioners was out yes terday looking over the work being done for the Improvement of the Barnes roac. James Fralney. who is giving it a coat ing of crushed rock, has about KXX yards in plare, and it will take about 2000 yards more to complete the Improvement.

Book Store if onnerly at.SOSU Merrlsoii noved to its new store, 225 Morrison, Must Pat on All Sales!; The licence committee Ijas rendered a decision oa what is rather an important question in connection with the collection of licenses on business occupations. Some buslnefi men, when applying for llcens, furnished a statement of the amount of business they had done during the past year Jn the City of Portland. Such applications wero rejected, and the applicants were told to return statements of the full amount of business they had done during the past year. Some objected to this, in sisting that they were not required to pay license on business done outside the city by drummers. The matter was re ferred to the license committee, and it has decided that business men must pay license on the gross amount of sales ap pearing on their books. The notice in terpreting the law reads: "The amount of license tax Is determined by the amount of gross sales or receipts of your business for the preceding 12 months." Counsel for one of the parties who ob jected to paying on the gross amount of sales saj's he -will carry the matter Into the courts. Alleged Dangerous Explosive. The discovery of some 10 or 12 tons of calcium carbide, from which acetylene gas Is made, stored In an old shed near the Blckel block, on Front street, has creatcu quite i commotion in fire insurance cir cles. The rates of Insurance on the prop erty in that vicinity have been raised, and Chief Campbell is having an ordi nance prepared to limit the amount of calcium carbide which can be stored in the city. It is alleged that the amount of calcium carbide stored on Front street is enough to blow up the whole of that quarter of the city under certain condi tions, but no one appears to know exact ly how long It takes to transform a large quantity of the stuff Into explosive gas. It seems hardly probable that In a leaky shed gas could be generated with suffi cient speed to accumulate a quantity large enough to do much damage, but this Is not known, and it will be safer to have the stuff put away where it can do no harm. Sings Lullabies Now. John Morgan Thomas, of Duluth, Minn., and wife (for merly Miss Gladys M. Jones, of Port land are visiting the latter's parents, Bev. and Mrs. Richard M. Jones, 375 Williams avenue. Mr. Thomas Is uresi dent of the Iron. Ore & Manufacturing Company, and represents very large In terests on Lake Superior.

The members of the bar will meet this morning at 9:30 o'clock, in Judge Frazer's courtroom, for the purpose- of malting arrangements to attend the funeral of the late Judge J. W. Whal ley, in a body. Judges Cleland, Frazer, George and Sears will be present and occupy seats upon the bench, and a full attendance of attorneys Is desired. At the meeting a committee" on resolutions will also be appointed to report at a fu ture date. Better Mail Service. Chief Clerk Whitney, of the Railway Mall Service, announces that, beginning today, a trav eling mall clerk will be put on Southern Pacific trains 13 and 14, leaving Portland at 10 A M. and arriving at 4 P. M. There has formerly been only a close pouch service between Portland and Albany, and this change will give a splendid service with all the Valley towns, as con nections are made with branch lines. Valuable Gift of Books. Says the American Hebrew: "Rev. Dr. Stephen S. Wise has given to Columbia University Library 00 volumes of Judaica and Rab blnica, to be known as the 'Aaron Wise Collection of Rabbinical Literature.' This gift adds largely to the value of the Temple Emanu-El collection presented some years ago to Columbia." Who Owns the ELnaraicAL Machine? The Edison pressure-recording alarm gauge recovered by Detectives Snow and Kerrigan Saturday evening, when J. W. Tohl was arrested, has not yet been claimed by an owner. It was supposed to- have been stolen in Astoria, but no iracaoiia-aTvion!iijod."u"i by the police department, f Municipal Court. George Barker, ar rested by Detectives Ford and Cordano for stealing shoes from J. W. Wilson, was sentenced to six months' Imprisonment in the County Jail by Judge Cameron yes terday. Henry Bacon was given 20 days for assault and battery on M, Beard.

The re-election of McKlnley means- that Oregon will do more In a commercial way during the next four years than she has accomplished during the last thirty. Sumpter American. The free-silver craze Is now happily dead and burled, and no aggregation of voters entitled to be called Democratic will ever again run a Presidential candi date on a platform favoring the free coin age of silver. The Dalles Chronicle. Democracy seems to have come to its senses at last An effort Is already be ing made to get prominent Democrats from all over the country to meet In New York City and reorganize the Democratic party. This Is sensible, and the only thing left to be done. Eugene Register. The overwhelming defeat of Bryanlsm would to reasonable minds suggest the folly of the assertion made by Bryan newspapers that he is sure to be the can didate again In 1904. Unless Bryan Is one of those fellows upon whom a brick houso must fall before he realizes what struck him, he will give the country a rest hereafter. Albany Herald. Mr. Bryan, who 13 now oufof National politics, departed from the time-honored and fundamental principles of Jefferson Ian Democracy, and thousands of Demo crats turned about and Indorsed the ad mirable Administration of McKlnley. These are the plain, hard facts in the case, and all should be willing to abide by them. Bight has prevailed, and the result cannot help but bo satisfactory. Heppner Times. The Idol has fallen. It, tottered on Us throne four years ago, when adorned with the. cross of .gold and crown of thorns. Willing hands supported it then, and Idol worship in more virulent form continued with new habllaracnts, A dishonored flag wrapped about it a. cloak of false sympa thy was thrown over all to hide the sil ver base, and the Idol was again placed ill the public temple. But the Idol has fallen and broken. Idols are anachron isms In this age. Baker City Herald. Of Bryan little need be said. A man who could change his principles with as little trouble and unconcern as he could change his clothes was not the man to be placed at the head ot a great Nation. Had Bryan been elected in 1896, there might have been some excuse made for the people. Had he been elected this year, there would have been a lasting blot on. the judgment and Intelligence of the American people. Chehalls Examiner. Oregon's registration law has "been a great nuisance so far, and We think it ought to be repealed. We are of opinion that from 5000 to 10,000 legal voters were disfranchised at the election Just passed on account of this law. Oregon Is too big a state and too sparsely populated, and facilities tor getting from one place to another are so inadequate that very many voters were deprived of that privilege be cause they could not comply with the law. We think it better to have a few Illegal votes cast than to have so large a number of legal voters disfranchised simply because they cannot comply with the requirements of a cumbersome and very Imperfect registration law. Arling ton Record. WILL PLEASE THE PEOPLE. This week the Fredericksburg presents a new bill of unusual merit and It Is surprising to visitors from other cities that such an excellent entertainment can be provided at a house where no admis sion fee Is charged.

The anvil sports by Harry and Lazette Prince was a pleasing feature, and Mr. Prince, as Un cle Eph, presented a splendid stage pic ture of the old-time Southern negro. It Is a strong programme from start to finish, and crowded houses will undoubtedly re ward the management for the enterprise shown In presenting such high-class at tractions. The Queen's Eyesight Falling. Chicago Times-Herald. There is no blinking the fact that Her Majesty's eyesight continues to cause con siderable uneasiness. Though those who are in close attendance on the Queen aro not supposed to say anything about It, the truth will out Clement Scott In his Free Lance says he learns that the dis ease from which the Queen has been suffering has apparently much advanced lately. It was to see if this was the case, and If anything could be done to mitigate the dimness of vlslpn, which Is her chief trouble, that Professor Pagenstecher was summoned the other day to Balmoral. It seems that at Her Majesty's advanced age it would be extremely undesirable to per form such an operation as would un doubtedly be resorted to were the patient younger, but even without this the ocu list, has been able to promise the Queen that she is in no Immediate danger of losing her sight t Servins Out n.
