THE MOBNEJG OREGOXIAX, MONDAY, DECEMBER 24, 1900. 5 V CITY NEWS IN BRIEF Amusements To Oar. MABQUAM GRAXD Harry Corson Clark. CORDRATS THEATER The Frawley Co. METROPOLITAN THEATER "The Bell Boy." Good Metes Abou:t Wraugel. George Clark, of Fort "Wrangel, Alaska, arrived here Saturday evening: In the Interests of the Alaska Gold Mining Association to secure a five-stamp mill to be put up on their basin mining: claims at Windham Bay In the Juneau mining: district. He will go back to "Wrangel Thursday, having secured the mill he wanted, as he Is anxious to get home In time to secure some claims which will be open for loca tion on account of the assessment work not having been done. The association with which Mr. Clark Is connected has six full quartz claims and a water-power of 5000 miner's Inches at "Windham Bay. The rock Is free milling, and the assays average about 514 per ton. On the ad joining claim "William M. Ebener has a "0-stamp mill and Is turning out gold bricks right along. Judge Munley has a good property two miles distant across the hills on Sundown, near the famous Bald Eagle claim, which produced J200.000 over all expenses In 1892, and has been paying dividends ever since. There are a number of Portland people Interested in the Basin group of mines and much Port land money invested In that section. Mr. Clark says the coast of Alaska from Cape Fanshaw to Bonner's Bay, a distance of about 130 miles, has over 1C00 stamps dropping now, and all of them paying. Seventy new stanfps were added last sea son. Some 15 or 20 miles north of Ju neau, John Y. Ostrander has Invested about $38 000 in development and is putting a mill on a claim at Yankee Basin, which is going to be one of the finest mines in that region. This stretch of coast, Mr. Clarke says, is going to be the greatest I mineral-producing belt In the world, on j account of Its accessibility to shipping, I enabling machinery to be got in easily. i " and also enabling rebellious ores to be shipped cheaply to smelters. Uo More TJsh for Stomach Pumps. A middle-aged man, who had evidently been on a "bun" for several days and was beginning to feel his hair pull, called at a drug store In the North End yes terday morning and asked for u stomach pump. He said he believed there was ' something wrong with his stomach and he wanted to see If washing it out would not help it. The druggist said he no longer kept stomach pumps, as the fad for using them had to a great extent died out, in fact since a year or two after Bull Run water was brought Into the city there had been but little demand for them. After the customer went out a by-stander asked how Bull Run water had effected the sale of stomach pumps. He was told that when people had to drink "Willam ette River water, especially in the Win ter, they swallowed so much silt, sand, etc., that sandbars formed in their stom achs and -these could only be removed successfully by the use of a stomach pump. The druggist went on to say that he had seen a man Tho drank a great deal of water sluice nearly a pint of sand, mud, broken clamshells, etc., out of his stomach at one sitting. Any one looking at the turbld waters of the Wil lamette this season can well Imagine that there is truth In the statement of the druggist and can only wonder what would have become of the people of Port land had they continued to drink Wil lamette water till this time. Work on Drainage Tunnel. Work on the drainage tunnel west of reservoirs Nos. 1 and 4, intended to prevent sliding of the hillside, is progressing favorably. The heading has reached a point 10S0 feet from reservoir No. 4, an, advance of about 260 feet, since November 4, and the work Is proceeding at the rate of about eight feet per day. For part of the distance constructed during the past month the material excavated consisted chiefly of large boulders, which had to be broken. and which even then were removed with difficulty. The heading is now in. loose -meterlal, principally broken rock of small size, and better progress Is being made. Engineer Clarke reports that at one time during the month the flow of water from the tunnel diminished to 900 gallons pel hour, but at present the flow is about the same as usual, 1300 gallons per hour. The drainage Is principally from the vicinity of shaft No. 1, there being but a trace of water at the tunnel heading. Surveys of the movement lines appear to indicate a slight decrease of the movement for the month of November at some points, but the change is very slight, averaging about .02 of a foot, the same as for the month of October. Hotel Clerks Kept Bust. Hotel clerks of Portland have reason to realize that Christmas has been on hand for the past two weeks, as parcels Innumerable have been delivered by messenger boys and others during the daylight hours. These are placed on the counter with a rush, and the boy delivering the pack age usually shoves a receipt book at the clerk, to be signed, after which the messenger rushes off to other scenes. The number of the owner's room is usually marked on the package, where the pur chase was made, and so the bellboy is rung up and directed to carry it to the room designated. The number of these packages handled by the hotel clerks far exceeds that of former shears, and this is another indication that the Christmas of 1000 will be more generally observed than any of Its predecessors for several years.

Yesterday was a busy day for a number of the commission houses on Front street. The Calltornia steamer arrived' late Sat urday evening with large consignments of fresh fruit and vegetables for the Christmas market. This was delivered to the consignees about 8 o'clock yesterday morning and the street was crowded with the wagons of Italian and Chinese peddlers anxious to secure loads of it, for all their customers will want an extra supply of fruit and vegetables today. The grocers and market men had placed their orders for what they wanted and the re mainder was fought and wrangled for by the peddlers. They bought what they could and some of them seized anything they could get hold of. One of the ped dlers, for taking a lot of stuff out of a barrel which he had been told was sold, was hit on the Jaw by the angry dealer and at once hastened to the police sta tion to have his assailant arrested. A Chinaman, who had secured a dozen of celery, made a terrible row when he was called on to pay for two dozen. He held up the bunch he had taken as proof that he had only a dozen, but the dealer re marked that he had seen the purchaser's side-partner Quong take another dozen, and this being a fact. John had to pay for the two dozen. An Italian, who want ed some celery, watched his chance and grabbed a small armful out of a barrel which he knew had been sold, and the dealer had to run after him and literally take it away from him by force of "arms." Dealers and their clerks had to keep their eyes en to prevent their goods from disappearing, but many things were missing despite their watchfulness. One dealer missed a whole barrel of pars ley, another a lot of lettuce, and In short anything lying around loose took wings to itself and was soon out of sight. Some of the clerks on the street are sportsmen, and yesterday was the first Sunday they have missed going duck shooting since the season commenced. They say it is not any wickeder to go shooting than, to sell goods and it Is a great deal more fun. Earlt Morning Fire. A spark setting fire to the chimney caused a 5550 blaze early yesterday morning at E. E. Howes house, 1S3 Park street, and for a few min utes cut off the escape of 10 persons, most of whom were. asleep at the time. One of Mr. Howes' sons has been sick lately, and worn out with nursing him, the family were taking a needed rest, when the invalid asked for more medi cine. Just then, smoke began, to fill the rooms, and the alarm was given. The sick boy was taken to a kind-hearted neighbor's an.d the rest of the family be gan to remove as much of the furniture as possible. Some little time was lost In endeavoring to telephone the fire depart ment, and in the meantime the fire had gathered strength. When the firemen at length arrived, they had to work about one hour and a half before the fire was subdued Mr. Howes' loss Is ?50, not cov ered by insurance, and the house is dam aged to the extent of $500, but this is covered by insurance. Some of the peo ple In adjoining boarding-houses were rather disquieted when the fire first started, as it was feared the blaze would spread across Park street, but they had Just started In to enjoy their Sunday morning sleep which the fire had rudely interrupted, when the blaze broke out again in the cellar of 1SS Park street. Another alarm of fire was sent In, and the tired firemen came back, but this time the blaze was more easily extin guished. Protect;no His Hollt Tree. A mem ber of the Park Commission, who has on his grounds a very handsome holly tree which he has raised from a tiny sapling and of which he is very fond, took timely precautions which prevented it from be ing cut down and ca-ried off bodily or being mangled and spoiled, as have been so many trees of this kind of late by the most contemptible class of thieves to be found anywhere. " He cut enough berry bearing twigs for himself and friends a week or more ago, taking care not to disfigure the tree, and then he nipped off the berries remaining on the tree, these being what attract the thieves prin cipally. The tree has not been mo lested and the owner is in hopes that he will be able to preserve it for many years, as it Is now four Inches in diameter at the butt, and attracts the attention of all passers, who frequently stop to admire it. The holly Is a slow-growing tree, and when one has cared for one for years and it has become an ornament to his place, the person who would cut It down In order to steal the berries on it, deserves rough handling. Precocious "Vegetation. H. Morrison, of Kerby, Josephine County, sends to the Weather Bureau a spray of white oak buds taken from the tree December 16, 1903, which are as far advanced as they usually would be In March or April and a tuft of young grass grown from seed sown last Fall, which Is two Inches In height. He says that everything in that section looks as If Spring were at hand, "Ev'l Hicks to the contrary notwith standing." The buds and the grass are all that Mr. Morrison r!vs thpm or&cH tnr but he must remember that "it is no sign of a wild duck's nest to see a feather on a stump." As long as the weather con tinues mild buds and grass push their growth, but If a cold snap comes, they cease to grow, and only hold what they have gained, and wait till Spring has really come before putting forth leaves. In the Willamette Valley grain and grass are growing and buds are swelling, flow ers are still to be found In some gardens, but It will require longer days and more sunshine to convince any one that Spring has come. Vehicle License Law rw Pnnnr- Th old license law pertaining to vehicles Is bum in iorce. a prominent city official said yesterday that the old ordinance had not been repealed by the passage of the new. and that the regulation iWncipa on drays, express wagons, hacks and hawker's vehicles would still be collected. Those who paid for licenses on delivery and laundry wagons, under the new law, are likely to get their money back with out the trouble of a lawsuit, when the City Council passes on the matter of re turning these moneys. Those who have paid the new licenses should therefore present their claims to the city authori ties In order to get their money back as soon as possible. It is not known Just now how much of the vehicle license will have to be refunded, as the accounts must be segregated before definite figures can be reached. Singular Accident. S. L. Beary, who met with a rather singular and very pain ful accident a short time ago, is able to attend to business. He was sitting In a chair near his desk and turned It around ana rouea it up to tfte desk to do some writing. His knee struck against the cor ner of the desk and It was at first thought that the kneecap had been brok en. The terrible pain quite prostrated Mr. Beary, but when the doctor arrived it was found that the injury was only a severe bruise. He was laid up for sev eral days anS had to sit In his chair with his foot in another for 14 hours at a stretch, but it would have been much worse had the kneecap been broken. To Inspect Training Ship. Captain Max Moeller. general superintendent of the North German Lloyds steamship lines &i. -c Aurtt., mvea nere Saturday for the purpose of Inspecting the company's training ship, and looking after the wel fare of the apprentices on board. The long trip he has made for this purpose shows the deep interest the company takes in the lads who are In the future to officer and finally to command their ships. Captain Moeller went down to As toria Saturday where the training ehlp Is lying, and as soon as he has com pleted his inspection, she will put to sea. Football! Football!!

Don't throw away good money foolishly, dribbling around after useless knick-knacks, toys and the like, with which money you can make a substantial payment on a piano, there by taking advantage of the golden opportunity to get one at the Eilers Piano House sacrifice sale without paying a dollar of profit' to any man this side the factories. The piano brought home Christmas eve will gladden the hearts of the whole family from the old folks down to the little tot; and then it is not a useless orna ment, but a modern necessity, a source of pleasure, a means of education and a stepping stone to higher culture and refinement. Think seriously over this before it is too late. It is now or perhaps never. Ten dollars a month looks easy, and it is money will secure an elegant, well-built instru ment. A fine piano is what you want, and Eilers Piano House sacrifice sale, 351 Washing ton street, is the place to secure one. Bar Association Meeting.

Christmas Markets. - p Scores of bier fat turkevs caps a hn carcasses of abnormally fat beevesjhefp imu Hugs, auun-iiiy pigs, or ruiner ma cuij, casses of little pigs which used t'Tj sucklings, and many other tempjsff kuiiJKB visiuie iiiruusu ue jaiucea ifuius of markets yesterday, gave all anlntl matlon of what can be procured todayfdr Christmas dinners. Many stopped to ad pilre and discuss the good points of the various displays. A party of several epicures, past middle age, were looking at the display In a market, when one of them, who Is a seeker after knowledge, asked why the rabbits had such large ears. One of the disgusted friends replied: "To hear .with, of course." "But why," continued the querist, "do not those canvas back ducks have ears as largo as the rabbits? They need to hear also." "Ducks obtain most of their food by diving," replied the disgusted friend, "and if their ears were as large as those of rabbits the water would run Into them and drown the birds." There was quiet for a moment, and then the querist wanted to know why horses did not have antlers like an elk. A sec ond friend took up the running at this point and asked ' the querist, why elk and deer were not made without horns like the horse, the Jackass and some oth er animals. This was an unsatisfactory answer, and there was quiet for a time or a time and a half or so. Then a discussion on sheep was started and one told of the large sheep he had seen In England, the wool of which dragged the ground and the mutton of which was very fine. Another told of the little sheep he had seen In the Orkney Islands, and of their wool, which was like floss silk, and was In great demand for knitting shawls and "clouds" for Christmas presents. Many species of sheep which members of the party had seen In their travels were discussed and at last the big-tailed sheep came up. One said he had seen those sheep the bodies of which would not weigh over 20 pounds, and the tails of which weighed 40 pounds. This was a direct challenge to the others and put each of them on his mettle. One said he had seen sheep In Spain, he did not know how much they weighed, but their talis were so heavy that they were carried on a little wagon attached to the sheep. He has eaten of such tails and thejr were like marrow, much resembling beavers' tails, but of finer flavor. A third said 'Xhat he had seen sheep In the south of France the tails of which were so large that the sheep could not haul them, and each was In charge of a peasant, who, as the sheep fed along, trundled their tails for them In a specially-constructed wheel barrow. The few by-standers who had been listening to the discussion began to move away at this point, evidently ex pecting lightning to strike some one In that vicinity, and the old boys, quite satisfied with their efforts, strolled off to their club to dine.

Harry Corson Clarke, who will be seen at the Marquaro Grand tonight, tomorrow afternoon and night, is declared by many critics to be the comedian who will one day assume the laurels which time must soon force Joseph Jefferson to lay aside. He is young, ambitious, has the same quality of mimetic powers as the great P, ana is equally as successful in pathos m numor. tils make-ups are wonder I in their artistic correctness.
