Tito Rural Hail. Carriers. Special 'Vceat Orrnsby, who has charge of the establishment of free rural delivery. In, speaking yesterday of the service to be established In Eastern Multnomah Coun ty, said that two carriers and a sub stitute will be employed to serve this district which will compose two routes of 30 miles each. Residents will be ex pected to put up proper mall boxes which will be furnished by the Government at $1 each, on the side of the roads In front of their places in which their mall will be placed. At crossroads one box may ac commodate two or three families. Spe cial Agent Orrnsby has made maps of the proposed routes to be established and will forward them to "Washington at once. There Is a postofflce nt Terry, some 12 miles west of Portland on th Base Irtne road, but the residents of the country north of that road have been anxious to have thp free delivery extended to that section, and there Is ?ome hard feeling among them because they believe that this is not going to be done. The malls for that neighborhood are left at Trout dale and Fairvlow by the O. R. & X. trains, and perhaps It was considered that this gave the surrounding country a.l the service required. Mr. Ormsby left tne city yesterday and It was reported that he had gone out to Terry to look over the situation there. He has lately established several rural delivery routes In Linn County, ta the great satisfaction of the residents of the districts to be served. Successful Casting. The casting of a n.'w propeller for the steamship Norman lles. the heaviest casting ever at tpmpted here, weighing about nine tons, ms rucce.esfully accomplished at the wcrks of the Willamette Iron & Steel Company, Suturday. The huge mass of metal was uncovered and examined yes trday and found to be perfect In every rsprct. but was not cold enough to be hnndltd. Today it will be lifted out of the pit In which It was cast and the ! work of boring the hole for the shaft will be commenced. A special tool has been made for this work and a small engine will be put In the foundry to eperate it. It Is expected to have the propeller In place in the steamer within n week, and thus the company will have a day of two of time to spare on helr contract. The steamship will commence discharging cargo from her after-hold to day so as to bring her shaft out of the water to enable the propeller to be put on. He "Wants Experienced Insurance- Men. Mr. Sherwood Gillespy, general ngent in the Pacific Northwest for the Mutual Insurance Company, of New York, is visiting .Portland. Mr. Gillespy is anx ious to secure the service of a compe tent local manager for his Portland sffice and A-l insurance men to cover the State of Oregon. In talking to an Ore gonlan representative yesterday Mr. Gil lespy stated that this offer will open a field for practical insurance men of spe cial ability that will offer Inducements in the way of immediate financial returns I and future preferment. He will not considet any applications in this line ex cept from men of the best address, of large experience In handling Insurance and who may be able to present the best credentials. Mr. Gillespy can be found all this week during business hours at the offices of the Mutual Life Insurance Com pany in the Oregonlan building and dur ing the evening at the Hotel Portland. Has a Yellow Record. It appears that Arthur S. Spencer, the haltbreea china man, who Is In the city, and who is rep resenting himself to be official Chinese Interpreter for the Federal Government, stationed at San Francisco, Is not pre cisely what he claims to be. He was , here in 1893, and borrowed some money cf Scld Back, which he has never paid. Yesterday Seid Back having doubts as to the mission of the stranger, telegraphed ta F. D. Schuyler. United States Chinese 'r.terpreter at San Francisco, inquiring if Spencer's statements were true. Mr. Schuyler telegraphed back: "Spencer not Government Interpreter; served two terms , In state prison. Demand credentials If he makes such claims." He has been representing himself as a big man, lots of Influence, and has been trying, on the strength of this, to make a raise among the Chinese Tiere. i Slaughtering Horses. Since the horso-slaughterlng establishment at Llnnt ton was started up a short time ago over 1 500 horses have been killed and pickled there. They come mostly from the warm 'Springs Indian reservation, and Mr- Kins man says they are In very good condition. He expects to kill about 500 more before shutting down for the Winter. The agents on Indian reservations are recom- nenJln? the Indians to get rid of their surplus horses rind to get cattle In their place Now that cattle are bringing a gcod price, the grass on the reservations wcu!d feed a great many and they would rrove much more profitable than the cu'tus cayuses. Principal Elected. J. O. Hall, of Sa- l.a, was elected principal of Mount Ta- bcr school district No. 5. by the directors last evening. There were 21 applications for the position. Mr. Hall has the repu tation of being a fine educator and was formerly principal In Salem. The school at Mount Tabor has been, without a i principal for a few weeks, since Profes- scr C. W. Durette resigned to take a I position at Olympla Miss Bryan, one of tl.e assistants, has been acting as prin cipal In the meantime. Six Months' Sentence. Larry Daly. alias Kelly, who pleaded guilty in Judge Bellinger s court a few days since to a charge of smuggling opium, was yes terday bentenced to Imprisonment in the Multnomah County Jail for six months. I The fact that the opium captured from Da:y was forfeited and that he forfeited his cash ball also, and that he Is an laid man, possibly had the effect of short ening his term in Jail. Without Permission. James Foley, a householder of Alblna. will shortly have nn opportunity of explaining before Mu nicipal Judge Cameron why he laid a Fewer-pipe from his house at San Rafael treet and Rodney avenue, without first T3tlfIrg the plumbing Inspector.

Sportsmen generally report having enjoyed very good duck shooting Sunday. Some Imagined that the terrific - rain and wind storm of Saturday night would have driven all the ducks out of the country. The sports men who went out to Columbia bottom Saturday evening passed rather a rest less night in their cabins. The storm shook their frail shelters as if it would tear them to pieces and the crashing of limbs broken from the ash and cotton wood trees drove sleep from their eyes and when a huge tree was blown down near a cabin occupied by four hunters they all rushed out of doors. The wind seemed to be lifting all the water out of the lake. The lake, however, was there In the morning, and the ducks began to come In early looking for wheat for their breakfasts and the shooting was very good. Down on Sauvle's Island and all along the Columbia very good bags were made. A number of geese and a few canvasbacks were shot. At Willow Bar, where the geese come In. to get sand, as one of the hunters said, a man took a long-distance shot at a flock with a rifle and brought down two, one shot through the body, and the, other with a broken neck. A number of very fine canvas backs and some seese were sent up from the Middle Sands near Pillar Rock on the Lower Columbln. Canvasbacks are much more plentiful down there than on any of the shooting grounds near this city. Lodhe Burned Out. C. W. Youngren, of Sllverton, secretary of the Odd Fel lows lodge there. Is at the Imperial. He says his lodge lost all Jt had In the re cent fire and that $2000 will not make it good. The order is in fair financial con dition, however, and will proceed to rent a lodgeroom. purchase furniture and re galia, an.d have Its meetings with accus tlmed regularity. The books and records were entirely drstroyed and their loss will be felt by the members for a long time to come. The feeling against the alleged Incendiary Is still very strong In Silverlon, and he is supposed to be "due" for a long term in the Penitentiary. New Railwat Guide. A new guide book, in a new dress. "The Pacific North west A, B, C Railway and Marine Guide," will be issued early next month by the C. H Crocker Company. It will contain. In an attractive form, railroad and shipping news, time-tables, etc, for railroad, steamboat and stage routes throughout Oregon, Washington. Idaho and Montana. Formerly the magazine was favorably known to the public as Lewis & Dryden's Railway Guide, but In this shape it was discontinued last June. The new management promises that Its publication, which will be Issued every month, will be up to date in every par ticular. Discussed New Game Law. The third annual meeting of the Oregon Fish aand Game Association was held last even ing in the rooms of the Oregon Mining Stock Exchange, Chamber of Commerce building. The proposed new game law was read, section by section, and voted on. It does away with the difficult pas sages of the present law and makes the provisions so plain that anyone can un derstand them. The meeting was fully attended and much enthusiasm was manifested as the improvements In the state laws were suggested. The pro posed law will be submitted to the Leg islature for passage. Bad Plumbing. Plumbing Inspector Hulme has found a district In the vicin ity of Fifth and Sixth and Sherman streets where all the houses have old and defective plumbing. He says that there has been a number of cases of sick ness In this district and this led to an investigation which resulted In the dis covery of a lot of defective plumbing. There is a sewer convenient and he will serve notices on the residents of this district, which covers about a block, to place their houses In sanitary condition, at onco. Put Footpads to Flight. Three masked men attempted to hold-up John Klllkoff at the river front foot of East Morrison street, late Sunday, night, but were scared away by two shots from KIllkofTs revolver. Klllkoff, who drives a wagon for the Standard OH Company, had about $100 In his possession when he saw the masked men, and heard the command: "Throw up your hands." Klllkoff Instantly seized his revolver, and flred twice at the robbers, who ran as If their lives depended on it.

Primrose & Dockstader, who come to the Marquam Thursday and Friday only, will always be Inseparably connected with all that is best in the history of min strelsy, and from the reception they are receiving throughout the entire country, and have received wherever they played, last season or this. It would seem as If they had the key to unlock the proverb ial chest of gold. The entertainment Is said to surpass even its last season's ex cellence, everything being done upon a more colossal and thoroughly crisp and novel style- Harry Coron Clarke. The comedy event of the season at the Marquam Grand will be the appearance Monday. December 21, and Tuesday, De cember 23. of Harry Corson Clarke, who Is well remembered here from the hit he scored last season in "What Happened to Jones." He Is supported by a New York company in a brand-new farce, en titled "What Did Tomklns Do?" Judg ing from tho press criticisms, Mr. Clarke has scored a hit of huge proportions in his latest attempt, the opinion obtain ing that his performance is the very top notch of comic effort. One feature of his production, upon which no money has been spared. Is the beautiful stage set tings, the handsome women who support him and the beautiful and artistic gowns they wear. There are no less than a dozen Parisian creations of this season, and they alone represent the expenditure of a small fortune. THE FREDERICKSBURG.

The allaftinrc Boy Driven Ten Miles and Found Spokane Lnd Arrested. Kidnappers stole 5-year-old John Ditch burn, son of Lawyer John Dltchburn, yesterday, and after an exciting time, In which both relatives and police partic ipated, the little boy was located in a farmhouse near Llnnton, about 10 miles below this cltr. Chester Van Hoy, 16 years old, a re cent arrival from Spckane, was arrested, later In the day, charged with kidnap ping, and was locked up at the police station. The kidnappers offered to give up the boy for money, and If no money was forthcoming, they threatened to take him away on a cruise. Mr. and Mrs. Dltchburn live at Fourth and Washington streets, and their son John is a general favorite among a wide circle of acquaintances. There was con siderable uneasiness then, yesterday morning about 11 o'clock, when the little boy disappeared. Inquiries were made and telephone messages were sent to a number of friends, but all to no purpose. At 1:30 o'clock. Chief of Police McLauch lan was communicated with, and orders were given to look out for John Dltch burn, Jr., as he was lost. The wharves and railroad stations were watched, but the first real clue that the boy was ac tually stolen n-s not discovered until about 7:30 o'clock, when Chester Van Hoy called on Mr. and Mrs. Dltchburn, and. presenting a letter, said: "I was told to wait for an answer." "Who are you?" he was asked. "I'm a messenger V-oy," was the reply. The letter was written in pencil on a single sheet of note paper, and read as follows: "Dear Sir: I suppose you wonder why your kid don't come home? He will never come home until you give me $75, and if you don't give me that by 10 o'clock tonight, tomorrow morning It will be J30. If not by S, he will go on a cruise with us. See? Give messenger the doc Yours truly, C. O. F." . Mrs. Dltchburn had Van Hoy seized and detained, and Van Hoy said: "I ain't done nuthin'. A fellow outside gave me this note I'm only a messenger." Police Sergeant More was In the neigh borhood, and he lost no time In cross examining Van Hoy. The latter finally weakened, and said that "the man" was to meet him on Front street, near Ash, and to pay him $2 50 for delivering the note. In the custody of Sergeant More, Van Hoy was taken to the rendezvous, where the party was Increased by the arrival of Detectives Cordano and Day, Police man Patton and Mr. Dltchburn. The po lice hid In doorways, waiting for the mythical "man," and kept Van Hoy walking backward and forward, warning him what to expect In case he attempted to escape. In the meantime a farmer named Mc Donald, living near Llnnton, had tele phoned to Chief McLauchlan that a stranger with a team had left a boy In his care, and had asked that the boy be kept till morning. "There's some thing strange about the proposition, and I don't like It. I thought It best to tele phone to the Portland police station," said the voice over the 'phone. "What's the boy's name?" was asked. "John Dltchburn," came the answer very faintly. Overjoyed at the news, the Chief asked Mr. McDonald to keep the boy until he heard from the police, and on no account to give him up to any one else The anxious father and mother were communicated with, and their de light can be Imagined. In the meantime, Mr. Van Hoy was taking his constitutional along Front street, and It was cold work facing the river air. The "man" Van Hoy said was to arrive did t not how up, and Chief McLauchlan ordered the whole party to the police station. Here Van Hoy was searched, and In his pocket-book were founde a pack of cards, a toothbrush, a hair-comb, and $2 25 in money. He said he lived in a house near Third and Stark streets. On being asked what he had to say with reference toa charge of kid napping John Dltchburn. Jr., the pris oner said: "Nothln. 1 didn't do it AH I know Is that a strange man asked me to deliver the letter, and I did It." As he obstinately stuck to his story and was impudent, he was locked up. There ensued a pretty piece of detective work on the part of Detectives Cordano and Welner. They went to the room Van Hoy had occupied on Stark street, and found there an overcoat and hat. In one of the pockets of the overcoat were sev eral sheets of writing paper, one sheet being torn In two. leaving the edge ragged. This was fitted to the edge of the letter signed "C. O. E.," and found to correspond exactly. Van Hoy was taken before the Chief, and when the boy saw the edges of the paper meet exactly, and was told that "the game was up." he broke down and made this confession: "A strange man. of elderly appearance, met me this morning on Washington street, and pointing out the Dltchburn boy, said: "Take that kid away and lose him somewhere' I hired a horse and buggy from a stable on Sixth street, and drove away down the St. Helens road. I met the strange man on the way, and he told .me to leave the boy at a little white house. I did this, and drove back to Toronto. I wrote the note to Mr. Dltchburn. The strange man was to give me part of the money." The police do not believe Van Hoy's story about tl)e strange man. Yet, when Van Hoy was outside the Washington block, before .he delivered the note, he was with two other boys. The man at the livery stable says that Van Hoy Is , not the boy who hired fhe horse and 1 Christmas Sale and Christmas Attractions Today and tomorrow we will place on sale the handsomest collection of Furs ever shown in this .city.
