THE MOUSING OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY. JANUARY, 30, 1901. CITY NEWS IN BRIEF Amusements Tonlc&t. MARQUAM GRAND "The Christian." CORDRAYE "Northern Lights." METROPOLITAN "The New "Waifs of New York.' 8wtndid School Teachers. Certain 'school maims" around the city -would like to hear again from an unta own young1 man of smooth talk -who has bun coed them out ot various quarter dollars. This young man has displayed an unac countable fondness for school teachers, and so far as Is known they have been his only victims. There Is a sample of his work: He called on the well-known Mlsa Smith at the sohool where she is engaged, and said: "I am an expressman, and down at the depot we have a parcel ad dressed to you from the Bast, but the address Is hot very distinctly written, and we are wondering if we can send It up to you. Now, If you give me 25 cents " and then the young man coughed lnqulr ingly. Miss Smith has an uncle In the East from whom she has certain expecta tions, and she parted with the two-bits, but the parcel never arrived. It was only when she learned that several other school teacners have also parted with various sums to the same smooth young man that the trutn comes out regarding this phan tom expressman. Baptist Men's League. At the meet ing Monday evening, George "W. Ken edy presided. Several new members were voted in. Rev. John C. Douglas, now Teslding In Portland, gave a most interesting lecture on his experiences during three years In the gold re gions of Alaska. He has visited nearly every part of the country, and has strong faith In Ks future. Ho praised without 6tlnt the Canadian government of the Klondike, and said that Dawson is sure tc become a large city. But there Is as rich a mining country contiguous to Nome City as to Dawson. From per sonal investigation he regards the Nome beach as rich in gold, which only needs better appliances to reward the miner. Mr. Douglas and his son Albert left Daw son in December, walking iff) inllea to White Horse Rapids, where tJy took the train to Skagway. "What Autos Mat A'ompush. "With the introduction of automobiles into Portland a number of the exc Wllent streets which are not now genersly used by wagons will be appreciated. The line stretch of asphalt pavement on Wash ington street, between Sixteenth and the City Park will make a splendid avenue for pleasure vehicles, and the automobile owner may bowl over the hard, even sur face of Sixth from Ankeny to the depot with never a Jolt to Jar the delicately adjusted mechanism of his motor. North Third street Is In admirable condition for use as a speedway, and Fourth street when It has been dredged to a sufficient depth will become a model boulevard. If the rich men of the city will only Invest in automobiles many streets may become travelled which now for some reason are little used by vehicles drawn by horses. Died at Dawson. A letter received by E. F. Brown, from Dawson, last night, said that Edward P. Glbltz, formerly a well-known veterinarian of this city, had died December 29, 1903, of pneumonia. Mr. Gibitz was about 40 years old. Two years ago lie was veterinarian at Joseph Cook's stable, at Fourth and Ash streets, and he and Cook started for Dawson together. Mr. Glbltz was one of the original locat ors of the famous Forty-nine group on Bonanza, and was at one time said to be worth 100,000, bnt lost tho money by trust ing his interest in the mine to a comrade to sell on the outside, and an unprofitable law suit resulted. He leaves a widow and baby daughter, who are at Seattle. Automobile Road. In speaking of the proposal to start an electric automobile service from Portland to Gresham and ad Joining towns, a Fourth street merchant said yesterday: "I have had considerable experience with different makes of auto mobiles, and do not think that an electric automobile is good fOr long distances, such as the proposed route to Gresham. For such work you want an automobile pro pelled either by steam or gasoline. Elec tric automobiles are good only for roam ing around the city, and I say this be cause I do not have an automobile to sell." CARBU36SLX Drawn. The" bill lntro duoed In the Legislature reducing the sal ary of the Sheriff and his deputies Is badly drawn, and contains several blun ders, the most glaring one being that portion of tho act which provides for the payment by the county of ?900 per year to the County Jailer. The author of the bill evidently does not know that under the presnt law the Sheriff is required to pay the Jailer, and he would consider It a good thing If the county would do it for him. To AnvEnTiss Oregon. Both the Cham ber of Commerce and the Board of Trade are planning for more extensive advertis ing of Oregon's resources In the East. President Hahn, of the former body, has been authorized to appoint an advertis ing committee, and will make his an nouncements in a few days.

Hall Calne's great play, "The Chris tian," the reigning success of the pist two seasons, will be presented at the Marquam Grand tonight, Thursday and Friday nights, with a strong company, under the management of Liebler & Co. There are few who have not read and admired tho authors novel; who have not wept at John Storm's trials and Glory Quayle's sacrifices, and applauded their triumphs. In the dramatization, the story has lost none of Its power; rather Is the play an Improvement, especially In Its final act, when John Storm and Glory Quayle are triumphant and happy, Instead of being devoured by the mob. It Is in the third act that the author has drawn his strongest climax. Over come by his love, maddened with the thought that the woman he loves Is In danger of contimlnatlon with tho world. Imbued with the revelation that he must kill her body to save her soul, John Storm bids her prepare for the end. With the fervor of the Glory he had known in youth, ehe brings back to him the love of their young days, their parting when the world came between them, appeals to his love, and conquers and saves him self. In New York the public of all classes crowded to see the play for 175 nights in succession, while Boston gave it an un interrupted run of 110 nights. The com pany is one of particular strength and general excellence, and embraces E0 peo ple. Two carloads of special scennry are employed in the production. "'Way Down East." Manager William A. Brady's production Of Lottie Blair Parker's play, "'Way Down East," will be given at the Mar quam, beginning Monday next, for a week. Thl3 Is the same great play that crowded the Manhattan Theater and the Academy of Music, New York, 427 times. It will bo given In thlB city with a splen did cast, elaborate scenery and effects, with every attention to detail that tended to make its metropolitan engagement so noticeable. The play 1b a splendid study of New England life, full of sentiment, and that peculiar appealing quality which strikes home to every heart. It Is called a otory of plain people, and they are plain, evcry-day characters engaged In the homely pursuits of domesticity, but the Berles of events which are unfolded In the course of the play are of a deep dramatic interest, enhanced by the sim plicity and naturalness of their telling. The best critics pronounce it a superior play to "The Old Homestead," or "Shore Acres." And, wherever It has been pre sented, scores of letters from clergymen, school teachers and others have been re ceived, telling of their -delight at the story that it so aptly teaches. The dialogue is stirring, the wit and the humor bright, and the love scenes deftly arranged. The sale of boxes and seats for " 'Way Down East" will begin tomorrow morn ing at 9 o'clock A. M. "The Star Boarder." One of the liveliest and best farce-comedies of the season Is Charles Boyle's ag gregation of funmakers, presenting the latest laugh-producer, entitled 'The Star Boarder," which comes to Cordray's, Sun day and all next week. In the ordinary skit which goes under the appellation of farce-comedy, it Isn't so much a matter of conseculve plot as of good specialty people, who are first-class entertainers. "The Star Boarder" has both plot and good people; besides there are several good comedlanB, Mr. Boyle bolng himself the particular star among them. As Chauncey Depot, the star boarder, he Is a whole show In himself. There are so many pleasing features that it would be tedious to enumerate them, but Boyle's Sousa, the March King, and his singing and Imitations are decided hits. "Kidnaped" Cominir. The successful melodrama, "Kidnaped," which Is to be presented at the Metropol itan commencing next Sunday, is a thrill ing story of life in the great American center. The scenes are mostly laid in the slums surrounding the water front, but are relieved by a glimpse of the life In more elevated sections. From a scenic standpoint, this is a modern triumph of stagecraft and presents one of the best stage effects ever presented on the stage. "Kidnaped" is a masterpiece of stage construction and the author, D. K. Hig gins, has woven around the plot a story of most absorbing interest. Introducing comedy scenes in such a manner as to relieve the more somber strains, but not detract from the natural trend of the story. "Kidnaped" will hold the boards the entire week, with Wednesday mat inee. RECITAL FRIDAY NIGHT. The pupils of E. O.

Chamber of Commerce Making Prep aration for His Entertain ment In Portland. President McKinley may visit Port land in the Spring. He has been Invited to witness the launching of the battelshlp Ohio, at San Francisco, in April or May, and if he accepts, Oregon and Washing ton cities will press him to come North. At the meeting of the trustees of the Chamber of Commerce, yesterday, a let ter from H. T. Scott, president of tho Union Iron Wcrks, cf San Francisco, to R. H. Pease, was read. Mr. Scctt said he was one of a committee of three to ar range for the President's visit to the Coast, and suggested that McKinley might come North If arrangements were made for his entertainment. President Hahn said the matter had already been taken up, and if the President should come to Portland, his visit would be made pleasant. Assurance was given to the trustees that there Is no danger of a reduction In parcels post rates, as proposed by a bill which has been introduced in the United States Senate. When the Chamber of Comerce comprehended the purpose of the measure, and the advantage its enact ment would give Middle West Jobbers in Pacific Coast territory, the Oregon Sen ators and Representatives were requested to oppose It. Representatives Moody and Tonge wrote that there Is not the slight est chance for. t'je bill to come up at the present session. President Hahn, and Trustees London, Batchelder and Pendleton declared em phatically for a drydock to be built by the Port of Portland Commission. Action was deferred until a special meeting, to be held In a few days. Assistant Secretary Masten was directed to draw a resolution protesting against the restoration or compulsory pilotage on the Columbia and Willamette Rivers. Trustee Batchelder said that compulsory pilotage was a political graft Intended to benefit a few men. The resolution, which will be sent to Chairman Mays of the Multnomah delegation, will set forth that pilotage fees are unnecessary and unde sirable, and that present arrangements for handling ships are satisfactory. Trustee Batchelder said that House bill ICO, creating a Bureau of Mines Is Im practicable for a number of reasons, which he enumerated. He said there should be mine inspection, statistics, an exhibit of ores and analyses of mineral productions. Mr. Batchelder will draft a bill embodying his suggestions, and If It meets with the board's approval. It will be Indorsed at the special meeting. BATTALION DRILL.

Bachrodt, representing a syndi cate formed In Portland of manufactur ers, addressed a meeting of farmers at Falrvlew yesterday afternoon concerning the proposition to establish a composite grist mill at that place. There was a fair representation of prominent men from" the surrounding country. Rev. W. T. Scott called the meeting to order, and Intro duced Mr. Bachrodt, who gave a plain talk and answered questions about the enterprise. Mr. Bachrodt said he came to them with a business proposition. He then said that on examination it had been found that the water power on the Smith estate would be wholly inadequate to op erate a mill of any capacity, and hence If the mill should be established at Fair view It would have to be operated by steam, and this would ciuse a heavy ex pense for fuel, which was growing scarce and costly. Mr. Bachrodt then called at tention to the fact that there was 50 cents discrimination on every ton of wheat against Falrvlew that would have to be met In some way by the, company. Considering the extra expense of steam over water power and the 50-cent discrim ination, the company did not see their way clear to establish the mill without a bonus of 52500. Hiving made this statement Mr. Bachrodt answered ques tions as to when the money would be re quired and when the mill would be erected. Mr. Bachrodt advised the meeting to appoint a committee to make a canvass of the neighborhood and ascertain just how the people felt about the proposition before they -undertook to raise the bonus asked, and If they found a favorable sentiment, then to go ahead. He said the company certainly would not expect the money until the mill had been erected, and this wonld take some time. Con tracts would have to be made and es timates on machinery received. Having made his statement, Mrs. Bachrodt left the farmers to proceed In their own way to ascertain the sentiment of the com munity -by a committee or otherwise. He said last night on his return that the mill, if erected, would be first-class In every respect. It would be about a 100 barrel mill, and would cut feed as well as flour. He thought Falrvlew a very good point for a composite mill. Thore would be a considerable market for mill feed, in that part of the county, and the establishment of the mill would help build: up that section. SAYS SHE WILL NDRSE LEPERS Mrs. Sch ichtenbersr, Formerly ot Portland, to Sacrifice.'' Herself. Mrs. Laura Schwlchtenberg, the di vorced wife of O. H. Schwlchtenberg, 443 East Thirteenth street, Portland, accord ing) an Interview in the New York Journal, is about to leave this country to go as nurse to the leper colonies of the Philippines. Two yeara ago, she became well known here as one of the leading spirits In the White Cross League, an or ganization which proposed to engage in hospital work In America and American dependencies, on the same basis as the Red Cross Society, In Europe. The White Cross League did not gain the success its promoters hoped for, how6ver. Another American woman, Miss Ella May Clem mons, a sister of Mrs. Howard Gould, of New York, Is going as a Catholic mission ary and nurse to the same leper colony. Mrs. Schwlchtenberg has been told that she is doomed to become a leper within six years, from the fact tha$ while acting recently as government Inspector of hospi tals In the Philippines, she lived for a short time In the Island of Cebu, where 30,000 lepers are. O. H. Schwlchtenberg was told about his former wife's proposed venture, yes terday, and said: "I do not know any thing about what my divorced wife Is do ing or proposes to do, except from what I read in the newspapers. I doubt if she will actually nurse lepers. If she thinks she will gain cheap newspaper notoriety by talking about nursing lepers, she Is Just the person for this sort of thing. I ob tained a divorce from her for desertion." Mr. Schwlchtenberg was married on the 24th Inst, -to Miss L. E. Schoenberg, of Macksburg. His brother, H. E. Schwlch tenberg, came specially from Tomona, Cal., to attend the wedding. WHY HE COULD NOT GO. General Summers' Innblllty to Aid Indian War Veterans Now. General O. Summers has sent the fol lowing letter of decllnatfon to Governor Geer: "Portland, Or., Jan. 23. Governor T. T. Geer, Salem, Or. Sir: I have the honor to acknowledge receipt of my commission as a member of the Indian war veteran committee, to visit Washington In the Interest of the Indian war veterans of this state, as provided for In the recent act. I can assure you that nothing would give me greater pleasure than to be able to assist these worthy pioneer defenders of our state In their Just rights. "I regret to have to tender my resigna tion, as I would not be able to make the necessary preparation to go with the rest of the committee at this time, for sev eral reasons. First, I am in the Govern ment's employ, and would have to procure a leave of absence from the department at Washington for this occasion; also, 1 have several private matters of import ance to myself which will need my per sonal attention soon. "I further feel satisfied that the com mission will not meet Tlth the success we all hope for, for the reason that the present Congress Is about to wind up as much business as is on the calendar for this session; the next Congress, which will convene December next, will be greatly changed by the presence of the newly elected members who will take the'.r seats; also new committees will be appointed. 1 think more could be accomplished at that period. "Thanking you sincerely for the honor you have conferred upon me, I have the honor to remain, your obedient servant, "O. SUMMERS." Corner-Stonc Soon to Be Laid, A force of 15 men, carpenters and brick masons, are at work on the crematory, on the Oregon City Railway, near Sell wood. The foundation of the retort and chapel Is finished, and the brick walls are being rapidly built. The chapel Joins the retort on the south, and the sills for the inclined floor were put in position yes terday. Much material, including brick, concrete, gravel and lumber, has been gathered on the grounds, and with favor able weather, good progress will be made. A small quantity of fire brick for the fur nace has been received. The brick and lumber are brought In wagons over the rather soft road, but concrete comes on flat cars. The corner-stone will be laid with appropriate ceremony In a few days. "Will Levy School Tax. There will be a special meeting of the taxpayers of school district No. 5, Mount Tabor, in the schoolhouse, this evening, for the purpose of levying a tax for the maintenance of the school, paying inter est and providing for the payment, or re funding, of about $5000 of the bonded in debtedness. The directors have decided to recommend that the levy be 9 mills, but this will not provide funds for paying the bonds. If the taxpayers decide to pay off bonds falling due, It would require a levy of about 15 mills. It Is considered prob able that the bonds will be refunded, as this can be accomplished at a very low rate of Interest. 4 Days More No time to lose if you are in for a saving. .
