Singular East Side Association. The East Side, which has won some notoriety from the actions of a gang of young ruf fians, who are styled the Society of Sneaking Scoundrels, or, for ahort, the "S. S. S.," has another somewhat singular association. This Is a sort of club of larger boys, or young men, who have a clubroom in a shack near the corner of Eighth and Multnomah streets. It is com fortably fitted up, and only members of the association are admitted. They have . tall flag-pale, on which they display a green light. It is said the members of this association are well behaved, and no outrages of public decency have been com mitted by them. They have, or had, a telephone and electric lights, which they secured by tapping the wires, but these are needed In their business. Sampson's Narrow Escape. Edwin Sampson had a narrow escape yesterday morning, while descending on a rope from the fourth story in the Heywood Bros.' establishment. The rope runs through a pulley down a shaft, and Is used for hoist ing chairs. Sampson wanted to make a Quick trip to the ground floor and seized the rope. Instead of taking both ropes, he grabbed only one. His weight caused him to descend with exceeding swiftness, there being nothing to counterbalance at the lower end. His fall was checked at the second floor by the hook of the loose end catching on a plank. He was severely shaken up and bruised, but no bone3 were broken. Chinbbk Goods Comino In. The n $loyes in the office of General Summers, Appraiser of Customs, are examining arid passing large quantities of Chinese gooda and merchandise of all kinds. The Chi nese New Year Is not far away, and un usually large shipments of all kinds of goods, particularly delicacies for the ta ble, are always received by the Chinese prior to their celebration of that Import ant event. Embalmed eggs, sharks! fins, swallows' nests, sea slugs and many like tempting dainties are In great demand for the proper observance of New Year's. Nhw "Weather Stations. New weather stations have been ordered established by Forecast Official Bcals at Shanlko, Was co County, and Bend, Crook County. "Wil liam Hdlden has been appointed observer at Shanlko. and D. D. "Warren at Bend. These stations will be equipped to record temperature and rainfall, and reports will be sent In monthly to the "Weather Bu reau. The chief purpose In establishing these stations is to secure accurate re ports of climatic conditions at thesa points, for which the Weather Bureau receives frequent requests. Licensbs Cheerfully Paid. Licenses of all kinds for the current quarter have been paid, except a few small amountB. The payers of licenses under the old law have settled with more readiness and cheerfulness than ever before. A few who come under the blanket ordinance are still waiting to havo their attention called to the fact that their licenses are due and payable, and this will, be attended to at onoe. The city's revenue from licenses bids fair to be. considerably larger this year than It was In 1900. Hard Even for Strikers. A politician or political striker who came down from Salem yesterday was questioned by some of his friends In regard to the Senatorial situation. "Gentlemen," said he, "the present Senatorial situation is the most complex political conundrum I have ever had anything to do with. No one can form any idea of what the outcome will be, and if any one says he knows any thing about It, you oan set him down for the champion prevaricator of the cent ury." Ancient Landmark Razed. The old wooden building, on the north side of Tay lor street, between Third and Fourth, has been torn down. It Is probably one of the oldest buildings in the city, and should have been razed long ago, as there was not a sound timber In It. Every beam and Joist was rotten to the core. The shack was occupied by Chinese. Tho ground, 83x50 feet is owned in the East. It has been rented by A. C Lohmlre, who will bujld on It. Section Boss Killed. Petor Miller, a Southern Pacific section boss at Canby. was killed near there, yesterday morning, by an extra engine. Miller "was riding over his section on a tricycle when he was run down by the engine, which he did riot know was coming. He appears to have been a general favorite at Canby, and his numerous friends there were much distressed by the fatal accident. Stole the Best Revolver. A colored man entered a pawnbroker's office, on Third 'street, near Davis, yesterday, and said: "Ah want ah revolvah. Show yoh stock." Five revolvers were placed on the counter for his Inspection. He picked up the most valuable one. and said he "guessed that one would do." Then ho ran away with the revolver. The police have been unable to find him. The undersigned will receive sealed bids at his office, cor.

Two boys with a large bag containing pigeons tried to make a sale to Chinamen near Second and Stark streets, last night, as Detective Cordano was passing. When Cordano spoke the boys ran away. Cordano took the pigeons to the police station. Chief McLauchlan would like the owners of the birds to call for them today. Two Small Firbs.

"Knob o' Tennessee" Kiclit. Tomorrow The "Knobs o' Tennessee" will open Its engagement at the Marquam Grand tomorrow night, continuing Saturday matinee and Satuday night. Popular prices will prevail at both evening per formances and at the matinee. Kentucky's and Tennessee's big-hearted wild mountaineers have been often paint ed by the dramatist with varying suc cess, but there can be no doubt of tho beauties of the touches reflected in the first and second acts of "Knobs o' Ten nessee." Hal Reld has done his best and his work Is ably Interpreted by Miss Alice Marble, L. B. Parker and com pany. The comedy Is furnished by three char-aoters-Jerry, an Irish employe, Centen nial, an old darky servant, and Hennle, a Swed servant-glrl. They keep the house In an uproar while they are on the stage, their best work being In the ghost scene. The play has been success ful the past throe seasons, ana li its past reputation is any Indication, should pack the Marquam to the doors. The sale of seats opened yesterday morning. "Xorthern Ltslits" at Cordray's. "Northern Lights," which comes to Cordray's Theater next Sunday night, in troduces several American historic char acters, dealing with the events that led up to the Custer Massacre in 1876. General Crook, who was known to the Indians as the Gray Fox, Is a prominent figure in the play. John SwlrUwlnd, an educated Indian who was made prisoner by the Sioux Indians on the battle-field, was the only living witness to the Custer mas sacre. Several other well-known historic characters are named In the play. Peo ple who have witnessed the battle scene In the play say that It is more realistic than the batue scene in Shenandoah. After the arrival of the courier with news of the Indian treachery the play has three distinct climaxes, each so thrilling that it Is difficult to Imagine that the author will be able to flnsh tne play with a climax 3-tronger than the former one. "Tlie Kerr "Walls of Nctt Yorlc." Mr. Lorin J. Howard's production of e New Waifs of New York," with the inimitable little comedienne, erry" Katie Emmett In the leading role, will be the offering at tho Metropolitan Theater one week, starting Sunday, January 27. It goes without saying that a most en joyable nigic is In store for all who are on hand. The play has a record of over six months in New York and propor tionately long engagements In other cities of the country. It is recognized as the best sensational drama of New York life yet written, and is presented with an en tire, complement of Bcenery showing the principal points of interest in New York and Its environs. The mechanical effects are new, original and startling, and are calculated to enthuse any audience. Miss Emmett has a National reputation as a most winsome and talented comedienne. Pnloxna Schramm. Paloma Schramm, the wonderfully tal ented omid whose piano playing delighted Portland music-lovers last year, will ap pear at the Marquam Grand next Mon day and Tuesday evenings, assisted by her scarcely less talented sister, Karla. Uttle Paloma has, since she last visited Portland, delighted many critical audi ences, and, unlike many prodigies, her work is constantly becoming more won derful. She made many friends during her stay here last year, and will, no doubt, see them all again next week. AMERICANS IN FAVOR. British. Offlclnl Encourage Them In the Klondike Country. N. W. Kline, ex-Postmaster of Hills dale, is buying a consignment of draft horses to take to Dawson this season. He has been In the Klondike country for four years, and Is engaged In the forward ing business, as well as In placer min ing on Gold Hill. When seen at the Per kins yesterday, Mr. Kline was fluent in his praises of that country and of the chances for a poor man to benefit himself. "They like to encourage Americans up there," he said, "and tho authorities are doing everything In their power to make It pleasant for us. The mounted police are a Jolly crowd of fellows, though they are Implacable when it comes to en forcing the laws against rowdyism and thievery. So far as the collection of roy alty on the gold output Is concerned, it does not boar so heavily on the miners as one would imagine, while life and prop erty are so safe that there Is very little complaint at the collection of licenses." Mr. KUne thinks that this year's out put of gold will be larger than ever, as the diggings will be worked In the Sum mer Instead of Winter. Sluice boxes and pipes can be run for about four months of the year, and the thawing machines wlH be largely discarded. Water is abun dant, as living glaciers are found every where, so there will bj no delay from that source." Mr. KUne expects to leave Portland for the North about February 15. ' Etymological Acumen. Philadelphia Press. "I'm trying to get some information about a friend of mine named Fox, who came out here," said the stranger from the East. "They tell me he died of some throat trouble."

When the preliminaries are arranged, those Interested In the promotion of the great enterprise will be allotted their va rious tasks In canvassing the city for signers to the stock of the corporation. Agents will be appointed to wait on the Legislatures now In session in the North west, in order to acquaint the people of those states of Portland's Intention to celebrate the one hundredth anniversary Of Lewis and Clark's expedition. The Legislature of Oregon will be asked to endorse the enterprise by a suitable appropriation, as upon this state's action will depend the manner In which the proj ect is received by the adjoining states, and by Congress. The meeting last evening was well at tonded and great interest was shown In the project, which the speakers averred would above all other thing3 tend to ad vertise the Northwest and stimulate trade with the Orient.

DEFENDS ENGLAND'S POLICY Former Portland Girl Writes Con cerning the Doer War. Mrs. Barbara Macleay Dudgeon, daugh. ter of the late Donald Macleay, of Port land, has written a letter to the Now York Nation, defending the policy of England toward the Boers. The letter, under the caption "Fair Play," follows! To the Editor of the Nation: As a constant reader of the Nation in this land of my adop tion I cannot, though an American imbued with strong affection for my native land, in Justice allow the statement made by "Equity" In your issue of November 15 to paBS unchal lenged. Lord Roberts has certainly ordered that all Boer farmhouses found concealing ammuni tion, or used as defeiises from which firing la carried on against British troops, are to be burned to the ground. In these cases they are simply powder magazines and hostile positions to be taken. All Boers have been duly -warned of this proclamation, and disregard it at their own risk. It would be well for "Equity" to read the history of our own war and Sheri dan's devastation of the Shenandoah Valley. As for the women and children, they have been in all cases treated kindly, and conveyed to places of safety. It is morally impossible to fight In kid gloves with velvet cushions, and a people who deliberately declare -war upon another must be prepared to take the oonse quencea "When the refugees from Johannes burg were traveling to Cape Town !n the open cattle trucks provided by the Boers, loyalist mothers trying to alight at wayside stations to find a cup of water for their parched and fevered children Tere turned back at the pis tol's mouth by Boers, only to find on their re turn the little ones gasping in death The fol lowing Is an extract from a letter written on the 23d or October by a private In the Sea forths to his mother: "We got the order to go to Jagersfonteln, as the Boers had risen and were doing some dam age to the English there. The Boer command ant got about 500 Boers Into the town Into his garden in the night time.
