Dropping French Prunes for Italian.
Prunegrowing has not been a very lucra
tive business for the past two years, as a
general thing, though growers In favored
localities have had no cause to complain.
There Is a general belief that there Is a
successful future for the business, and
many persons are putting out more prune,
trees, and others would do so if trees
could be obtained, but most of the nur
serymen have let their stock of prune
trees run down of late. Albert Hawkins,
of Helena, Mont., who owns a prune ranch
In Clark County, "Washington, came down
this Spring and superintended the setting
out of about 1000 more prune trees on the
place. Many prunegrowers are preparing
to have all the French prune trees on
their places grafted and changed to Ital
ian prunes, and will not any longer bother
with the little French prunes. There Is a
style of drying prunes which, when It be
comes general, will add greatly to the
value of the prune crop. The prunes pre
pared by this process are known as "pro
cess" prunes, and are steamed or slightly
cooked, apparently. In their own juices.
Some person is endeavoring to patent thl
process, and so far but few of the prune
growers In this region have prepared their
prunes for market In this way, but more
will do so this season. The prunes pre
pared by this process look as If they had
been dipped In some sweet solution, and
are soft and tender and retain all their
natural sweetness and flavor, and are de
licious In the dried state or when cooked.

Fooling Themselves on Eggs. E. C.
Van Wagenen, a Seattle produce dealer,
who was in Portland yesterday, says Ore
gon oggs sell for a cent less on the dozen
in Seattle than those laid on the Puget
Sound ranches, although the latter are In
ferior. "The Oregon eggs," he said, "are
usually larger, just as fresh, and, "being
the product of grain-fed poultry, are In
every way superior to the eggs laid by the
Island hens, which are fed nearly alto
gether on fish. The brand, 'fresh-laid
ranch eggs,' however, takes the eye, and
so Oregon eggs are considered 'imported,
though they may be just as newly laid as
those from the shores of Puget Sound.
There Is as much difference between eggs
that come from the wheat ranches and
those from the fisheries as there Is be
tween corn-fed pork and that which has
been fattened on swill. If there is any
thing in which people prefer the home
product to the Imported article, It is the
VS."
Paid the License. The Western TJnlon
Telegraph Company yesterday paid to the
C.ty Treasurer their business license for
the two quarters ending March 31, amount
ing to Slcft. This was very gratifying to
the city officials, as the company's agent
here, William Dumars, had demurred to
paying the license and had talked of tak
ing the matter Into the courts and con
testing the validity of the business-license
law. The general manager of the com
pany, howe-er. decided that this would
bo useless, and even if it were probable
that the law could be defeated, he would
not desire to contest it, as his company
was doing a good business here and had
received liberal treatment from the city,
and was willing to pay any just tax that
might be Imposed. It is not probable that
any one will now offer to contest the business-license
law.
New Lumber Yard. E. IC Jones & Co.,
sawmill men, who have been renting a lot
on Fourth street, near the old reservoir,
for a lumber yard, at a cost of 5100 per
month, have purchased two lots at the
northwest corner of Fourth and Columbia
streets from Mrs. Clarke, paying for them
511,000. They will move the building on
the property to one side and use the
ground for a lumber yard. The Interest
on the investment will be covered by the
sum which has been paid for rent and
tho rent from the building, so the Invest
ment cannot fail to be a profitable one.
Funeral op William Sherlock. The
funeral of William Sherlock took place
yesterday from the residence, 35 North
Twenty-first street, and the religious ex
ercises were conducted by Bishop Morris,
Rev. Dr. A. A. Morrison and Rev. E. T.
Simpson. Interment was at Riverview,
and tho pallbearers were James Laldlaw,
George W. Weldler, D. W. Wakefield,

Asked tor Surveys. Surveyor-General
Habersham has asked the Commissioner
of the General Land Office for authority
to advertise for bids for the survey of the
following described public lands: Town
ship 7 south, in ranges 7, 8, 9 and 11 west:
township 6 south, ranges 9 and 10 west;
township 10 south, In range 11 west. This
will be of Interest to timber men, as all
these, townships are said to be heavily
covered with timber. If all goes well, the
surveys will probably be made next Fall.
Row on Trollet Car. Otto Kleemann,
architect, was before Municipal Judge
Cameron yesterday, charged with assault
ing Charles H. Hellyer, conductor of a
trolley car. Hellyer's story was as fol
lows: "On the 19th Inst. Mr. Kleemann
was a passenger on board our trolley car,
and about Fourteenth and East Morrison
streets he insisted on my stopping the car
in the middle of a block. I told him 1
could not do this, and he struck me."
The case was continued until April 1.

Obsidian Abundant. Dr. Roland D.
Grant, in his fine lecture at the Marquam
last week, asked If any one had found ob
sidian a kind of dark glass produced by
volcanoes In Oregon, and seemed to be
under the impression It did not exist here.
He wanted to hear from any one who
knew where It could be found. Dr. M. A
Fllnn, of the East Side, spent a great
many years exploring the Columbia lava
bed and fossil deposits of the John Day
Basin, and he says he found obsidian In
great abundance. He picked up some
pieces of obsidian, which he has In his fine
cabinet in the Logus block, on Grand ave
nue. Dr. Fllnn says that he knows of
large masses of obsidian being found In
the John Day Basin, and that about every
known rock can be picked up there. He
found obsidian so plentiful in his explora
tions In that famous basin that he did not
care to load himself down with It. The
arrow-heads found at The Dalles, which
are probably the finest in the United
States, were largely made from this ma
terial, and the obsidian was doubtless ob
tained from the John Day Basin.
Presented With Loving-Cup. On the
occasion of the G2d birthday of Hon. Solo
mon Hirsch, president of Temple Beth
Israel, the members of the congregation
gathered at his residence, Fifth and Jef
ferson streets, and surprised him by the
presentation of a handsome silver loving-cup.
This was Inscribed as follows:
"The members of Temple Beth Israel,
Portland, Or., to their honored and be
loved president, Solomon Hirsch, March
25, 1901." In the name of the congregation
and its officers Dr. Wise presented Mr.
Hirsch with an album containing resolu
tions of frlendfihip and appreciation beau
tifully engrossed on parchment with Illu
minated letters. Mr. Hirsch made a fit
ting response, after which the company
adjourned to the dining-room, where a
collation was served and the health of
Mr. Hire ch toasted In brief remarks by Dr.
Wise, the Rev. Dr. Bloch and others.

Suit Over Wheels. Argument was re
sumed yesterday In the case before Jus
tice of the Peace Kraemer In which Unruh
& Jones sued Tohn H. Price for the pos
session of two bicycles valued at 564. The
plaintiffs allege that the defendant signed
a lease April 23, 1900, to purchase two bi
cycles by paying 55 per month on the 23d
day of each month thereafter until the
sum of 532 was paid for each bicycle; that,
according to the lease, should lefendant
default in any of the specified payments,
the lease would terminate and the bicycles
be returned to the plaintiffs. The defend
ant paid 553 50 In all and then stopped pay
ing, and Constable McNamee seized, the
bicycles on a replevin suit. The court's
decision will be announced in a day or
two.
Cars on South Fifth Street. The
Portland Railway Company will commence
operating Its Fifth-street extension tomor
row morning. Four new combination cars
of the California pattern, having an open
space at both ends, have been provided
for this route. For a week or two these
cars will run from the Union Station to
the corner of Fourth and Sherman streets,
and by that time the remainder of the
extension for the present will be com
pleted and the cars will run to the cor
ner of First and Sheridan streets. It
was expected to have this extension in
operation some time ago, but the delay In
starting up was unavoidable. The new
line, to some extent, will relieve the con
gested travel to the South End.

afternoon William B. Jones, son of J. F.
Jones, the pioneer coffee and spice man of
Portland, died at St. Vincent's Hospital

"The Parish Priest" will be found by
theater-goers a delightful play, where
dramatic effect Is sacrlfled for natural
ness, and the heart, not the backbone, is
appealed to by the dramatist. It repro
duces Pennsylvania life with all the beau
ties of the Wyoming Valley, made famous
by the poet, John Boyle O'Reilly, telling
a simple little love story which creeps out
over the footlights Into the hearts of
tho auditors, and the graceful unraveling
produces smiles and tears. The play has
just made a long run at the Fourteenth
Street Theater, New York, and last sea
son had a four weeks' run in Boston.

MODJESKA AS CONSTANCE
GREAT ACTRESS IX FIXE PRODUC
TION OF "KIXG JOHN"."
Splendid Work of R. D. MncLenn,
Bnrry Johnstone nnd Odette Ty
ler Magnificent Scenery.
Madame Modjeska and Wagenhals &
Kemper's splendid company gave a pro
duction of "King John" at the Marquam
last night so artistic In every detail, so
complete in cast and so elaborate In
scenery that It is really beyond criticism.
Wagenhals &. Kemper In their highly
commendable efforts to give to the theater-going
public the best of the drama
have brought many fine productions to
Portland, but none of their companies
have been so thoroughly capable and so
perfectly balanced as this one, which has
been enlisted for the support of the great
actress. Doubtless Modjcska's wonderful
personality, which never fails to Inspire
the best work , of those who surround
her, is responsible in a large measure
for the smoothness and beauty of the
performance, but even a Modjeska could
never arouse any but fine actors to such
efforts as were put forth last night.
For once the audience was completely
aroused. Curtain call followed curtain
call as one splendid scene after another
was unfolded. Madame Modjeska was
compelled to appear three times after the
conclusion of the great scene in which
Lady Constance's grief for her lost son
almost drives her mad. Mr. MacLean was
tendered an ovation such as was never
given a tragedian on the Marquam stage
before. Barry Johnstone, as Fauicon
bridge, was awarded the recognition he
so richly deserved, and Odette Tyler was
enthusiastically recalled after her beau
tiful scene with Hubert, in which the
Prince pleads that his sight may not be
destroyed. The Interest was never abated
for an Instant, a breathless house was
ready to drink in every lire, and not a
rustle marred the quiet intensity of the
final scene, that of the death of the
King, the house remaining so still that
the bell for the curtain sounded like a
gong.
The play was mounted with all tho
sumptuousness that characterizes Wag
enhals & Kemper's pr.ductlrs. thiscnes
being works of art, and the costumes
marvels of elegance and beauty. The
final scene In the Abbey garden Is one
whose beauty has never been surpassed
by scene painter, and the others were
all In perfect keeping with the general
excellence of the production.
Probably nothing Modjeska ever did
surpasses her Lady Constance. While the
part Is not. the central figure of the play,
like Rosalind or Juliet, its requirements
are such that only a great artist could
meet them, and no one who has ever seen
Modjeska will question her right to the
title of a great artist. Her work In every
scene In which she appeared was such as
to excite the highest admiration, while on
her final appearance, when, with a flood
of passionate tears she gives way to her
despair as she recalls the memory of her
lost son. It is Indeed a dry eye which does
not moisten at her magic art. The de
lightful accent which Is so familiar a
characteristic of Modjeska's reading only
heightens the beauty of the lines and
lends to them an Indescribable charm.
Of course, as King John. R. D. MacLean
had by far the most severe duty Imposed
upon any member of the company, and
as was to be expected, he was fully
equal to It. His picture of the crafty, am
bitious, heartless ruler was striking In Its
originality and wonderfully effective. The
cold brutality, the utter lack of human
sympathy, which made John so terrible
a monarch was brought to the attention of
the audience so forcibly as to make them
feel that John was before them In the
flesh. Mr. MacLean's splendid physique,
resonant voice and wonderful power of
communicating feeling by facial expres
sion eminently qualify him as a tragedian,
and It is not surprising that a host of ad
mirers look upon him as the greatest
American actor of Shakespearean roles.
In the part of Faulconbrldge, Barry
Johnstone had perhaps the best opportun
ity ever afforded him to show his full
strength, and he Improved It fully. He
imparted to the role a dash and energy,
spiced with a quaint, shrewd humor, and
his clear and beautiful voice gave his
lines an emphasis that brought their
strength out clearly and forcibly. Both
MacLean and Johnstone are clearly deep
students of the master dramatist, and
their work has been the result of long and
patient endeavor to Interpret the chirac
ters as they were meant to be Interpreted.
It was Indeed a charming little Prince
Arthur that Odette Tyler made. Her
scene with Hubert. In which she pleads
that her sight might be spared, was
enough to melt the heart of that stern old
courtier, and her dainty acting through
out was as enjoyable as it was novel, for
Miss Tyler has heretofore been known to
Portland audiences only In comedy and
society drama.
Mrs. Vandenhof. who will be remem
bered as the Mrs. Candour of the "School
for Scandal" production, was a splendid
Queen Elinor, her work being finished
and even, and never falling short of re
quirements Max von Mltzel makes an excellent Hu
bert, Julius MacVIcer as the French heir
apparent, makes a heroic figure of the
part, and Miss Kate Hassett does much
with the rather insignificant part of Lady
Blanche.
The minor characters are all well cared
for, and the play moves with a clean
cut action that speak.s much for a com
petent and hard working stage manager
somewhere in the wings.
"King John" will be repeated tonight.

Rose McMnhon was In the Police Court,
yesterday, charged with looking on the
wine when It was red. She said: "Mc
name Is Rose, and sure Ol tuk th' wolne,
an It wlnt t me feet."
"You're fined 510," announced the Judge.
"G'wan. D'yez t'Ink OI am made ov

"Judges an' lawyers are rob

pay a heavier fine," hinted the Judge.
"G'wan. Sure It's because Ol am a

"You are fined 520," announced the
Judge, firmly, and as Ro'se was led away,
she remarked:
"Sure, Ol-wlll have th' lasht wor-rd."
WHY IS IT?
Why is what? It Is, why don't the peo
ple of Portland appreciate the attractions
put on lately at the Fredericksburg? For
this week there are bookings direct from
New York City, from San Francisco and
from Melbourne, Australia. And while
tho attendance Is good. If only the sur
passing excellence of the performance
were fully appreciated the house would be
crowded to overflowing. Some time ago
the management made arrangements by
which the very best talent of one of the
best circuits In the world was secured.
Last night. In their first appearance, Billy
McKay and Amy Laurance, the Scotch
pickaninny, and the lady athlete, in their
original burlesque, to use the language of
the crowd, "fairly tore down the curtain."
They are superb. Kalgratus, the master
of hoops, the greatest juggler ever ap
pearing on the Coast, drive the house
actually wild His dexterity, grace and
beauty in action ha? never been equaled
here, or anywhere else, for that matter.
The Dulcie sisters are the sweetest and
most engagine singers conceivable. If a
good, round admission were charged, yiey
would all bring crowds anywhere. As It
Is. the greatest free house In America has
for this week altogether the finest and
best bill It has ever set before a Port
land public, and that Is saying a great
deal.

THE OLDEST
AND BEST
Only One Gcnnlne Checkering: and
That Is Made In Boston Be-
vrare of Imitations.
The best piano that has ever been pro
duced, just as It !b the first to be man
ufactured In America, to the Chlckerlng.
of Boston. This world-renowned Instru
ment Is father of all American pianos, and
all other myites are more or less imita
tions of the mechanical devices first used
by Messrs. Chlckerlng & Sons.
Ever since the days of Thomas Jeffer
son the Chlckerlng piano has won highest
honors wherever exhibited. Indeed, for
the last half-century It has been known
the world over as the most exquisitely
toned piano made. Not only In America,
but In the various musical centers of the
civilized world. It has made a reputation
for Itself unparalleled In the industry.
The great interesting fact for the piano
purchaser Is that the Chlcitering tone Is
the nearest to the Ideal that it has been
possible to reach. This tqne Is the' one
that all other makers have vainly tried
to duplicate. In buying a Chlckerlng
piano, you procure the best and most
costly piano it is possible to purchase.
We have Chlckerings in all the different
designs of cases and In the plainest and
the most expensive woods. We are al
ways glad to show our fine assortment.
