THE MOBNISa OREGONIAN, WEDNESDAY. FEBRUARY 13, 1001.
CITY NEWS IN BRIEF

COP.DRAT-S THEATER - "Shooting the
Chutes."
METROPOLITAN THBATER-'Tbe Ancel of
the Alley."
Au. Pavements Have Good Points.
H C Gilstrap. a civil engineer, formerly
connected -with the street department of
New Yrk City, but for the past two
years employed In Mexico, has been in
tcU? for severa days on his way East.
v hiie looking over some of the Improved
streets, in company with a friend, he was
encountered by an Oregonian man. He
stated that he had always taken a deep
Interest in street improvement matters,
and could see that Portland had been,
like many other cities, endeavoring to
find out which was the best kind of pave
ment, as he had seen different samples
of wooden, stone, brick and asphalt pave
ments. When asked which kind of pave
ment he deemed best, he said each has its
good features, and that climatic condi
tions cut quite a figure in the case. "In
such a Winter climate as I find here
new." he continued, "It would seem that
almost any kind of pavement would an
swer. In New York the Winters, with
their freezing and thawing out In the
Spring, are very trying on pavements.
There It costs a large sum to clear the
streets of snow every Winter, and two
Winters ago the city spent nearly $200,000
lor this purpose. Portland is put to no
ixpense in this matter." Mr. Gilstrap
fcays he intends to return to this Coast In
a short time to remain here permanently,
as he likes the climate and the country,
and cannot bear the thoughts of an East
ern Winter.
Fire-Horse Drops Dead. What threat
ened to be a serious lire broke out, yes
terday, at the planning mill of the J. A.
Martin Company. Seventeenth and Front
streets. A spark from the furnace started
a blaze In the shaving-bin, and a volume
of smoke and flame poured out. The
volunteer fire brigade of the mill went
to work and succeeded in confining the
fire to Its original limits, until the arrival
of the Fire Department, when the flames
were speedily extinguished. The loss will
amount to $300, which Is covered by In
fcurance. In the hurry of getting to the
lire, "Bud." a 17-year-old horse belonging
to truck 8, dropped dead from heart dis
ease, near Seventeenth and Savler streets.
To enable the fruck to be taken to the
nre station quickly, chief Campbell un
harnessed his o-nn black horse. "Prince."
and attached him to the truck. A fire
man afterward said: "Poor "Bud' ought to
ha-ve been retired long ago. He was too
o.d for the work. This Is the result of the
cheese-paring policy of the department.
Ave have two many old. worn-out horses
attached to trucks. This fire shows the
need of a ttreboaL If the blaze had
started In the nighttime, amoncr the tim
ber, nothing could have saved the mills
along the river front, but a fireboat."
Portland in Alaska. Ketchikan. Alas
ka, has organized a Chamber of Com
merce, with J. W. Stedman president, and
I Smith Harris, secretary. Among the
directors Is J. R. Beegle, formerly cditc.r
of a weekly newspaper at dt. Heliu.
Secretary Harris wr..es: "So-itnwo.-tern
Alaska has many and varied resnarpfs.
an! there is no reason why our Portiundv
aiicuus fciioujo not nave some of the bene
fits as well as other pretentious cities of
the Coast." If Portland merchants have
any advertising matter in the way of
cards, calendars, or fancy pictures, Sec
rrtary Smith wilt distribute them among
Alaskan merchants, or give them position
in the hall of the Chamber of Commerce.
Portland once controlled the bulk of
Alaska's business, but of late years North
ern towns have monopolized the field.
Portland is still willing to trade with
Alaska, and a large number of Alaska
merchants are willing to send their or
ders here, but for some reason or othe
hope continues to be deferred.
Chance jn the Weather. The fair
weather spell which has been holding
sway over Portland for nearly three
w eeks was broken yesterday. A light rain
began falling about 3 o'clock in the after
noon, and continued to fall at Intervals
throughout the afternoon and evening,
Although the fine weather has been very
enjoyable, the rain was not unwelcome,
and It laid the dust and made people feel
as if they were living in Oregon again.
In spite of the protestations of the oldest
inhabitant, that he never saw anything,
like it before, fine weather at this time
of the year is not entirely without pre
cedent. A study of the records of the
Weather Bureau since 1S72 shows that
Portland enjoyed similar weather in 1SSS
and 1895. In both these years the first two
weeks of February were clear and fine.
So no records are broken this time.
The deficit in the rainfall since January
1 1b 1.66 inches; since February 1 It is 2.55
inches. Light rain Is the probability for
the next 24 hours.
Sketch Club Election. At the annual
meeting of the Portland Sketch Club the
following officers were elected for the en
suing year: President, Dr. H. C. Wilson;
Ice-president, Harry Wentz; secretary
treasurer, Albert E. Doyle: executive
commltee. Miss A. B. Crocker, Miss C. J.
Stephens, Seth Catlln. Dr. Richard Nunn,
end Albert E. Doyle. The matter of ob
taining an instructor for the classes dur
ing the Summer was discussed, and It
v.js deemed advisable to secure an asso
ciate membership to assist in creating a
Tand with which tp bring an instructor
tj this city. The difficulty has always
been the expense of the trip, a larger ex
pen' c than the club has been able to af
ford The secretary will be glad to com
irunicate with those interested, whether
in view of joining the classes or becom
ing associate members.
Oregon Bor Honored Dr. Harry A.
Llttlefield, who was appointed Assistant
Surgeon, United States Army, with the
rnk of Captain, by President McKinley,
esterday, is the son of Dr. H. R. Llttle
l.eld. He enlisted in the Second Oregon
en the first call for Volunteers for the
Spanish War, and went with the regiment
to Manila as Hospital Steward. At the
request of the Medical Director, he re
signed after six months' service, and was
commissioned Acting Assistant Surgeon,
which office he filled for a year with great
credit, returning te Portland In Novem
ber, isae. After a short rest, he began
the practice of his profession at New
berg, Or., where he now Is. Dr. Little
field is popular with the Second Oregon,
and the veterans will be glad to learn
cf his appointment into the regular
service.
Tor Valparaiso Consulate. Major
Alfred F. Sears, of Portland. Is a candi
date for United States Consul to Val
paraiso. Chile, to succeed John F. Caples,
res.gned. Major Sears will be baokal
by the influential business men of Port
land. President Hahn and several trus
tees of the Chamber of Commerce signed
!-. application yesterday, and the Cham
tcr will probably officially Indorse h!m
li a few days. As Mr. Caples was ap
points fiora Portland, the Valparaiso
Consulate belongs in a certain political
sense to Oregon. Major Sears Is well
Qiaafied to fill the post. He has been
oer much of South America as an en?l
r.er. and i6 acquainted with the Chilean
rr pie and their language.
Oregon Goods in China. Olivier & Co..

and branches at Hankow. Tien Tsln.
js.ngpo and aokohama. desire to corres
ipsnJ with Oregon manufacturers and
i merchants who wlah to be represented in

r.er, of the Chamber of Commerce, that
among commodities which have large sale
at Shanghai are produce of all kinds, tin
ware, window glass, mirrors, rubber arti
cles, tobacco and cigars, lamps, oandles
and soap.
Slot Machines in Mocrnino. In a
Third-street cigar and fruit store there
stands a deserted hulk of a nickel-in-the-s
ot machine, draped In crape, with a card
bearing this greeting: "At rest Jerry
Slot- No flowers." The proprietor was
seen and he mournfully said: "When the
police told me to stop playing the slot
machine. I obeyed, but I like to keep it In
sight for the sake of old times."
Wht Men Don't Go to Cmmon. At J
me meeting oi tne Men s League of the
First Baptist Church, on Monday even
ing, there was a good attendance. The
subject for discuss'.en was. "Why Not
More Men In the Churches?" J. T. Mor
gan, one of the representative working
men of the city, gave the principal ad
drese. He said that there 13 no one
reason for the absence of worklngmen.
but gave some of the prlclpal ones.
There are counter-attractions in the
shape of reading-rooms, libraries, and va
rious societies, that absorb the time and
attention of men. There is a great deal
of skepticism on questions of theology as
taught In the pulpits, but worklngmen
agree with the church in its high ethical
teachings. The manner of dress seen in
the churches discourages people of scanty
means, and they do not go. The fact
that the worklngmen think the cost of
church support is so great that they can
not do what is their fair share In the
financial work hinders many. O. P. M.
Jamison followed in an address in which
he urged the church to be more awake
and up-to-the-times In its methods. The
church must be more a living force
among men, to teach them the practical
PROMINENT OREGON EDUCATOR.
i f y 1
THE LATE PROFESSOR THOMAS VAX SCOY.
Professor Thomas Van Scoy, who died at Helena, Mont., was well known in Western Ore
con and Washington. For a number of years he was president of the "Willamette Univer
sity, and while he was there the school enjoyed a high degree of prosperity. He was among
those who thought that Portland was the place for establishing a great Institution, and,
with Rev. C. C. Stratton and others, started the Portland University. At flrst he was
only dean of the faculty, but in reality was the active president and manager of the Port
land University. Under his management that Institution reached the high-water mark In
attendance, the number of students In all departments running up to about 100. Rut for the
financial slump, which followed the days of prosperity, the Portland University would
have succeeded, but even the great exertions of Professor Van Scoy could not hold it up. It
was the desire of Professor Van Scoy that tie Willamette University should be moved to
Portland, but the traditions and hhrtory of that Institution were deeply woven In the hearts
of many graduates, and they rallied to its support, and with the help of the Salem people
held the institution there, and destroyed the hopes of those who fondly desired to see it
moved and consolidated with the Portland University. It may be said that Professor Van
Scoy was an able educator and a friend of every young man and woman under his charge,
and it was with their deepest regret that he resigned to accept the presidency of the Montana
institution. Besides being an educator, he was also a minister and a platform speaker of
great force. In his death the Northwest has lost a useful man, and he will long be remembered.
things of life. Others followed In the
discussion, which proved to be one of the
best In the series of the Winter.
Death op Mrs. Jacob Deckenbach.
Mrs. Barbara Deckenbach. wife of Jacob
Deckenbach, died at her home on the
southeast corner of Grand avenue and
East Morrison street, yesterday, at 12
o'clook. Mrs. Deckenbach was. 66 years 9
months old. She was a native of Neu-stadt-bei-der-Haardt,
Rhelnpfalz. She and
her husband came to Portland in early
days, and established the Hotel Zui
Rhelnpfalz, on Front street, where they
acquired a competency. They sold the
hotel a number of years ago, lived for a
time In California, and then returned,
taking up their residence on the East
Side. Mrs. Deckenbach's health had been
falling for some months. She was taken
to St. Vincent's three times, and two
severe surgical operations were per
formed. She was an honored member of
Sumner Woman's Relief Corps, No. 21,
and her request that the corps have
charge of her funeral will be compiled
with.
Smelt in Sandt River. Smelt have be
gun tc run In the Sandy River. Whether
the run will be large cannot now be told,
but if it shall approach that of five years
age i will be a great run. Great wagon
leads were shoveled out of the river by
simply backing the wagon down into
the water and pitching the fish Into the
bed with pitchforks. The run lasted for
seveial weeks, and farmers for miles
around hauled smelt home by wagonloads
and dumped them on their fields for en
riching the soil. The habits of the smelt
are peculiar. They have not been seen
In the Sandy since the big run, and up
to that time had not been In the stream
fcr several years.
Dice Games Are Running. Throwing
dice for cigars is all the rage In more
than one cigar store in town, and is
openly practiced. One cigar-store proprie
tor said: "Yes, we shake dice for cigars,
and it is a harmless amusement. It Is
not gambling. So far, the police have
not told us to stop, and I don't think
they will." Other cigar dealers do not
regard the dice question with favor, and
state that as they stopped all slot ma
chines, it is only fair that every
gambling device. Including dice, should
be closed "tight."
FibHERMEN tor Alaska. John G. Nel
son, of Yes Bay. Alaska, says the report
tha' h. Is going to San Francisco to get
fishermen to work in Alaska is a mistake.
Tht wages paid up there, he says, are $40
to J4o per month and board, and there is
a gooJ demand for labor. -Most of the
seining Is done off shore, not with drag
seines and horses. The fishing Industry
of Alaska has grown prodigiously, but
Mr. Nelson thinks there is danger of
overdoing.
More Fire Escapes. Several fire es
capes are being constructed In city build
ings at present. Two stair fire escapes
ate nearly finished at the Good Samari
tan Hospital, and three stair fire escapes
are under construction at the Esmond
Hotel. Outside fire escapes are being
erected on the Falling building. Third
and Washington streets, and the Hiber
nian building, southwest corner of Sixth
and Washington streets.
Lenten Readings. Mrs. L. Altman
takes pleasure in announcing a Lenten
series of "Interpretative readings " The
first three will be devoted to "Stories"
from the Apocrypha and Bible, the last
three to "Genius of Hebrew Poetry." All
special announcements will be made in
next Sunday's Oregonian.
Opposes Compulsort Pilotage. Sena
tor Joseph! writes from Salem: "I am un
alterably opposed to the compulsory pilot
age bill, and am using by best efforts to
defeat it. Its passage would be a calam
ity for Portland's shipping Interests, as
well as those of the interior of the state."
Ab the "barbers' Sunday-closing law"
Is now in effect, all union barber shops
may keep open hereafter until 11 o'clock
Saturday evenings. On the 23d of Feb
ruary union shops may keep open if they,
so desire. Wllliaia Wanner, president lo-"

The Sghramms and a New Soprano.
Paloma and Karla Schramm were greeted
with much enthusiasm last night at the
Western Academy of Music, this being
their third concert of the season in Port
land. Paloma gave the difficult Chopin
scherzo In B flat minor, a Bach Saint
Saens gavotte, a Schubert Impromptu,
Mozart's "Fantasle In D Minor," Schu
man's "Vogel als Prophet," and other
numbers. Her Interpretation was as ex
traordinary as on previous occasions, leav
ing but lltle doubt In the mind of the
listener that If she could but continue
her musical studies in some systematic
fashion, under a suitable master, she
would eventually stand In the first rank
of world-artists. And Karla seems to be
quite as remarkably endowed. A surprise
was sprung upon the -udience In the
delightful vocal work of Miss Edna Tayu
lor. Her voice is one of the most prom
ising heard In Portland for some time.
It Is a light soprano, but of such ad
mirable carrying power that Its volume
far transcends that of the average "light
soprano." The page's song from "Les
Huguenots" and the romance from "Cav
allerla Rustlcana" showed to excellent
advantage the purity, freshness and flexi-
blllty of her voice, and the fine quality of
her tone-production. She is sure to be
heard with delight whenever she may
choose to appear before Portland audi
ences. Bicycling Around the World. Two
Italian newspaper men. Carlo Reiter and
Mimo Galvani, from Florence, Italy, ar
rived here last night, on their tandem
bicycle tour around the world, to win a

write up the principal cities of the world,
and arrive in Florence by Christmas, 1902.
They have been on their unique Journey

bursed for relief In the month. One hun

IN MEMORY OF LINCOLN
ANNIVERSARY EXERCISES AT CEN
TENARY CHURCH.
Heroic Aspect of the Great Emanci
pator Dlscuecl by Rev. Rob
ert McLean.
Services appropriate to the birthday of
Abraham Lincoln were he:d at Centenary
Methodist Church last night. Colonel D.
B. Bush, who Is a veteran of four wars,
and took a prominent part in shaping the
Republican party and bringing abdut the
nomination of Lincoln in 1S60, presided.
Back of the speaker's platform the only
flag in the auditorium was displayed. Dr.
Gue, the pastor, explained that the ar-
rangements for the memorial had been
made since Sunday. A large audience
was present.
The programme opened with Instru
mental music on the grand organ, singing
by the audience and prayer by Dr. Robert
McLean, of the Third Presbyterian
Church. Colonel Bush made a few re
marks before Introducing the speaker. He
spoke of the ancestry of Lincoln, and the
hardships they endured. He said that
Illinois tried to claim Lincoln, but that he
belonged not to any state or nation, but
to the whole world. He then Introduced
Rev. Ray Palmer, of the Second Baptist
Church.
Dr. Palmer said that Lincoln's work
was for the South as well as for the
North, and that both sections owed him a
debt of gratitude. In part he said:
"The American Nation came into being
through desire of the people for liberty,
and It developed and grew in a spirit of
patriotism, but with this development ap
peared a blot on the National life. The
course of human slavery, fostered in
Southern soil, rapidly grew until Its pro
portions were alarming. Then God
brought forth men who opened the way
and sowed the seed that Lincoln was to
reap. They had merely made the Intro
ductory movement, and It remained for
this chiefest of God's noblemen to do the
work that should mark him as a humani
tarian of the highest type. Though the
great men of the North thundered against
the curse, it went on until the man dis
tinctly raised up by God should come to
the front and, literally burst the chains
that bound the colored man. Honesty,
simplicity and Integrity were Lincoln's
sterling qualities. He was the only man
at that time fully competent to stand be
tween the surging forces of the two sec
tions. True greatness Is attested by the
results of a man's work, and the fact that
his efforts are felt after death. We have
but to view our country today to find a
true valuation of Lincoln's greatness."
Rev. Robert McLean discussed the he
roic aspect of Lincoln'8 character. He
said:
"There are so many things which con
stitute a hero and so many different
views of greatness, that it Is certainly
difficult to make a correct estimate, but
with Lincoln it seems permissible to say
that he was great in every sense of the
word, and a hero, because he did not
shrink from duties which were trivial
In themselves.
Any one seeing the ungainly lad in his
cabin home would not have seen the
possible hero in him. But its latent qual
ities were there, nevertheless, for In
spite of the most adverse circumstances
and direst poverty, he pushed himself up
ward to the highest position In the gift
of the people. In after life he showed
all the fruitage of these early efforts and
struggles, for they developed traits of
character which made him universally
beloved and honored. His heroism was
flrst manifested by his rising above those
early environments, and again that same
nature is shown in his acceptance of the
presidential nomination in the face of
the calamity which hung over the coun
try. With his unusual mind and keen
Insight into conditions, he foresaw the
outcome of the thunder clouds, but In
sight of the danger and responsibility
which such a position would entail, he
did not shrink. Again, in the Presiden
tial chair, we find him the same heroic,
firm though gentle, man, yielding only
so far as public policy demanded. Then,
with his acceptance of the second nomi
nation, he showed his unflinching devo
tion to duty. 'Twas then that the shadow
of sadness deepened on that face, and
need we wonder at it, for the clouds
were gathering yet more thickly about
him. His great heart was torn with
the pathetic pleadings of broken-hearted
fathers and mothers who daily came to
beg for the precious life of an only boy.
And when the stern Generals of war said:
'Mr. President, you must not abuse the
pardoning power; you are ruining the
discipline of the Army,' he turned a
deaf ear to them and the efforts of those
who addressed him were not In vain. His
untimely death was universally mourned,
showing that he held the flrst place in
the hearts of not only the American peo
ple, but of the whole world."
Rev. W. T. Kerr and Rev. C. E. CHne
made appropriate remarks, Mr. Kerr giv
ing an interesting account of a visit to
the home and tomb of Lincoln. The ex
ercises closed with music.
