Despite the Weatheb. 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

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. The
f P.i. aaT-bfen loaned to L- Hawkins
by the United States Weather Bureau,
and the public will have the privilege of
examining it for the next two or three
months, but a notice hangs in front of
the map bearing the legend. "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.

HrjtRtED to His Dinnbr. 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

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. Mrs. Thomas,
who is known as one of Portland's fa
vorite vocalists, now sings lullabies to
her daughter, aged four months.
Bar Meeting. 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

rested by Detectives Ford and Cordano
for stealing shoes from J. W. Wilson, was

for assault and battery on M, Beard.

AFTER-ELECTION OPINIONS.
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.

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

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 Rouselles pre
sent an aerial act that borders on the
sensational, and such clever people are
seldom seen in the West The four
Princes created & splendid Impression,
and their comedy work Is excruciatingly
funny. They are good singers and clever
dancers. Rojetto and La Jess, acrobats,
gymnasts and contortionists, held the au
dience spellbound white performing some
seemingly Impossible feats. This team de
serves the hearty applause that their turn
evoked. Marie D. Wood is -a captivating
vocalist, with a well-trained voice, that
was heard to good advantage in a num
ber of up-to-date songs. 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

makes of pianos which do not bear the
stamp of undoubted and undisputed ex
cellence. And, even if the very best
pianos, such as we handle, coat a few
dollars more than the ordinary instru
ments, you will concede that the best is
none too good when it, can be bought at a
fair and honest price. We can afford to
sell pianos for less money than any oth
er dealer. We sell more, and our ex
penses are lower than anybody else's. The
names "Chickering," "Weber" or "Kim
ball" ore always an assurance of absolute
reliability.
