An Unknown Two-Foot Strip. A sec
tion of East Seventh street has lateiy
been Improved on the petition of sup
posed property-owners. East Seventh
street Is the dividing line between the
Albina district and Irvinston, and now
that the Improvement has been made it
Is discovered that there Is a two-foot
strip between the platted property on the
Albina side and the street, and th5
owners of the property on the west or
Albina side of the street decline to pay
their assessments for the improvement.
It Is explained that in laying out the
tract it was divided Into blocks and these
into lots of 50x100 Xeet, and that there was
a strip two feet wide left over. There
lore as the assessment for the improve
ment must be assessed to the abutting
property, residents on the west side of the
street decline to pay. and expect the cost
to be assessed to this Intangible two-foot
strip of land. The City Engineer wjll have
to measure the ground over to ascertain
If there is a vacant strip of two feet
in width, as alleged, and If so then the
courts will be applied to to ascertain
whether people can take advantage of a
palpable error to avoid payment of their
obligation. If there is this vacant strip
there, the people whose property adjoins
It knew It, and. it would appear, signed
a petition for the improvement of the
street intending to evade payment or their
assessments. It is astonishing to see how
many people are willing to take advantage
of anything which will enable them to
swindle the city.
Japanese Florists. Camellas, palms,
ferns and other shrubs and plants from
Japan are becoming common in this city
since direct communication has been es
tablished with the Orient. A Japanese
florist has also established himself some-
where In the city and has his stock on
the market. The Japanese are great
gardeners in their peculiar line, ?hlch is
chiefly in dwarfing or contorting plants
or trees into odd shapes. In one place
was seen yesterday a young larch or
hackmatack tree, the long limbs of which
had been trained over a framework into
the shape of a stork or crane, and an
other similarly trained into the shape of
a turtle. The trees stood in pots, which
supported the frames, and were just put
ting forth "leaves." Scores of camelia
plants are offered for sale, many of
them with fully expanded blossoms ot
pink and white, and can be had for from
'25 cents to SI 25 each. It is not so very
long since a camelia blossom was a rarity
on this Coast, and florists twisted wire
stems into them and sold them for 50
cents each. In these days was written
the once-favorite song: "In her hah she
wore a -vhite camelia, and dark blue was
the color of her eve."
Charity Appreciated. Says this week's
Catholic Sentinel: "The Sisters fit St
Vincent's Hospital have received froni Hr.
R. W. "Wilson a bequest of $2500 from the
estate' of the well-known pioneer, Mr.
John "Wilson, deceased. This gentleman
has given a worthy example which others
should emulate, and his donation, com
ing from a non-Catholic, shows that dur
ing his long residence In Portland, where
he was identified with every undertaking
tending to elevate the moral tone of the
community, he recognized the immense
amount of good accomplished by the Sis
ters of Charity. This is the largest be
quest of the kind that St Vincent's Hos
pital has ever received, and as the Sis
ters carry on their noble work of charity
in ministering to the sick, regardless of
race or creed, and as their expenses are
enormous, such donations should not be
so infrequent
Seventh Street Improvement. The
property-owners on Seventh street have
paid their assessments for the opening
and extending of the street to North
Sertnth, with the exception of four or
Ave, and the Council has ordered war
rants issued for the collection of Jfchose
assessments. Probably . the property
against which these assessments are lev
ied will be sold. "When this matter is dis
posed of another proceeding will -have to
"be commenced for the opening of the
street by tearing away the buildings and
other obstructions. Next another pro
ceeding will have to be commenced to get
the street improved. It is intended that
the street shall be permanently improved
from the Union Depot up to TamhlU
street.
Mrs. Airman's Xast Lecture. The
Book of Job, often styled "the greatest
poem of the ages," and "Faust," often
pronounced the greatest book of the last
century, have indeed many points in com
mon. Job has been aptly designated as
typical of the Faust spirit among the
ancient Hebrews, and it is well known
that the prologue of Goethe's "Faust"
is wholly founded on certain incidents of
the heavenly council In the prologue of
Job. Both unite in an unfolding of life
through trials to a higher Ideal. On Sat
urday afternoon, April 13, at 3 o'clock,
at the Selllng-HIrsch building, Mrs. Alt
man will present this marvelous book, in
part a soul drama, as the sixth and last
of the series of interpretative readings.
Home tor Nurses. A home for the
nurses employed in Good Samaritan Hos
pital is to be built forthwith at Twenty
third and Marshall streets, just north of
the hospital on property belonging to
the institution. It will have capacity to
accommodate 50 nurses, as there are 40
now employed in the hospital and the
number will be larger In the future. It
is very desirable that the nurses should
have jquarters outside the hospital when
off duty wheretheycancenjoy more home
like surroundings thai! are possible In a
"hospital. The Institution has also a Sum
mer resort at Long Beach, to which more
land has just been added.
Little Doubt of Moving Ship. The
contractors for launching the lightship
Columbia have so far progressed with
the job that It Is quite certain that she
will soon be afloat Captain Day. Light
house Inspector, is already asking for
bids for making the necessary repairs
to put the vessel in order to go on her
station. About the only perceptible dam
age to the hull from the stay of nearly
a year and a half on the beach is the
loss of her keel sternpost and rudder, and
a part of her starboard bilge keel and a
little of her copper sheathing. Bids for
repairing "her will be opened by Captain
Day early' next week.

Equal -vro April Fool Jokes. The
wagons employed In carrying earth from
the excavation for the foundation of the
Rummelin estate building at the corner
of "Washington and Eleventh streets have
sprinkled a thn coating of clay over
the asphalt pavement there. The sprinkle
of rain yesterday was just enough to
moisten this clay, and the travel over It
oon reduced It to the consistency of oil
and made the pavement more slippery
than glass. Scores of bicycles pass along
the street there during the day, and
many of them came to grief on the slip
pery pavement The trap soon attracted
a crowd of spectators to the adjacent
corners and every time a bicycle went
from under its rider he was greeted with
shouts and jeers. Not less than 75 per
sons were thrown to the pavement there
during the afternoon. Fortunately no one
was seriously Injured, though many were
badly jolted, and the spectators had more
solid enjoyment out of the affair than
the average of April fool hoaxes pro
duces. Thinks He. Has Oil. Henry Epperson,
whose farm is near Currlnsvllle, Clack
amas County, is quite sure oil can be
found on his place, which is only 27 miles
southeast of Portland. For several years
Mr. Epperson has noticed a greasy sub
stance oozing from a spring not far
from his house, and last week he sum
moned an expert from Sellwood, who
pronounced the floating substance petro
leum. "If It Is oil," the expert said,
"It will follow a stick drawn through it,
but If not the stick will part the scum
and leave Its track through the ooze."
The floating substance clung to the stick
and the expert was satisfied. Mr. Epper
son's farm is on a pretty prairie about
700 feet above sea level, and the spring
from which this .oil oozes, is near the
upper edge of a jNntle slope and a very
good place to erect a derrick. Men dp
slrlng to prospect on the place can find
Mr. Epperson on the farm, four miles
east of the Currlnsvllle postofflce.

The Army Mule Agrnln.
Baltimore American.
The British in South Africa are urging
on the war with dogged determination
and mules. With the dogged determina
tion the Boers can do nothing, but they
are trying to cut off the mule supply
at the fountain head via an injunction of
the United States Court If this country
will only take care of the mules, they
are willing to let the .dogged determi
nation take care of Itself. The American
mule is not a poetical animal, but he
plays a part important enough just now
to suggest himself as an international issue.
It's a mistake to go on losing appetite

0LCOTT MADE TROUBLE
HIS
ATTACK ON 3IR. JUDGE
AROUSES AXTAGONIS3I.
Factional Trouble 'Anions Theqs
ophlstH Breaks Out Afresh .
Among Portland Devotees.
The visit of Colonel Richard Henry Ol
cott, the distinguished theosophist, to
Portland last week, and some remarks
which he made in a public address hero,
have caused the strife which rended the
theosophists of the world In twain some
years age to break out anew, so far aa
Portland devotees of the cult are con
cerned. Both factions, or rather both
societies, for 'there are two world-wide
societies of theosophists, have branches
in Portland? .One of these branches is
endorsing Colonel Olcott's remarks, and
the other is just as vigorously denounc
ing them..
At the meeting of the International
Theosophlcal Society in Boston in 1895, the
American wing withdrew from the general
organization, and announced that there
after it would be independent in the mat
ter of government, though in all other
matters pertaining to the cult it offered
to affiliate. The American wing was
headed by the late Walter Q. Judge, who,
it Is asserted by its followers, was the
legally selected successor to Madame Bla
vatsky, as the teacher of the faith. ,
Colonel Olcott, with Annie Besant,
headed the other wing, and still assert
that they are the only genuine simon-pure
followers of Blavateky. They have many
followers in America who did 'not join
with the majority of their brethren on
this continent In seceding. Later the
seceding wing was merged into the Uni
versal Brotherhood, which it still remains.
It Is said by both parties that no ques
tion of faith or belief split the society,
but that the whole cause of the difficulty
was an Internal row, which finally got
into the courts, and became an open
scandal. There is little difference?' now in
the faith of the two, althqugh It is al
leged that the Olcott-Besant contingent
have leanings towards spiritualism, and
that they are out and out believers in
Brahmlnlsm, neither of which, however,
are regarded as heresies by the American
wing.
Colonel Olcott, during his recent trav
els In this country, has devoted some time
during his various speeches to assaults
upon Mr. Judge, and he did so in his
Portland address. The result Is that the
local adherents of the American wing, or
Judge faction, are denouncing Colonel Ol
cott, and declaring that Instead of try
ing to Inculcate the doctrines of theoso
phy, he is attemplng to tear down the
Universal Brotherhood.
The local adherents of the Olcott-Be
sant faction are defending their leader,
and hint that the Universal Brotherhood
has departed from the sacred teachings
of Blavatsky, and Is teaching new and
false doctrines. They claim that Colonel
Olcott, having been associated with Bla
vatsky In . the founding of the cult, is
best qualified to judge of what Is the true,
and what is the false.
"Colonel Olcott may mean well," said a
Judgeite yesterday, "but he J an old
granny. Blavatsky never regarded him
as amounting to much. He was around
her headquarters in India for years, but
was a sort of a laughing stock, and was
merely tolerated. When he gpt into trou
ble once, Mr. Judge, who was Madame
Blavatsky's duly chosen successor, helped
him out, a favor which he repaid by Join
ing with Annie. Besant in trying to de
pose Judge from the head of the so
ciety. "The fact Is that Olcott and Besant have
a sort of mutual admiration society. They
are Brahmins rather than theosophists.
Miss Besant affects to abhor beef-eating;
she sits only a goatskin, and won't touch
anything that has been touched by some
one else than a Brahmin. A Brahmin
travels with her. The Universal Brpther
hood is a practical organization:
it Is, doing a practical charitable
work "at Its international headquar
ters at San Diego, Cal., among
other things being engaged In the educa
tion of a number of Cuban children. We
allow our members the widest latitude.
They can eat beef, and cut their hair, and
look, act and live like other people.
"Colonel Olcott is devoting his time to
trying to tear us down, Instead of to
building his own organization up. His
organization mayjiot do any harm, but
It is not doing any good."
every performance by audiences that
crowded the theater to the doors, it is an
assured fact and easily to be ascer
tained. The company that will produce
the comedy here la one of Mr. Charles
Frohman's and is in all respects a most
apable one, capable of portraying the
very difficult characters so beautifully
drawn by Mr. Barrie, who made the stage
adaptation of his book. Thattheatergo
ers are going to appreciate the opportunity
which Is to be given them, and that the
theater will be crowded during the en
gagement is shown by the interest al
ready manifested.
The Elleford Company,
The Elleford company, headed by Jepsle
Norton, who comes to Cordray'B Theater,
Sunday evening next with two plays, "The
American Girl" and "Mrs. Partington
and Her Son Ike," are comparatively
strangers In this section of the country.
They come with strong recommendations
from the press and public of other states.
The San Diego Sun of a recent date has
the following .notice of them:
''There is no denying the fact that when
it comes to a dramatic attraction the
Elleford company Is 'It' And what in
more to the point so far as Mr. Elleford
Is concerned, it Is a fact which the pub
lic appreciate, as Is attested by the mag
nificent audience which gathered at the
Fisher last night to give the company its
annual welcome to San Diego.
" 'The American Girl was the play
chosen for the Initial performance. , It
more than pleased the audience, and It is
safe to assume that not a person went
home dissatisfied. As to the individual
work of the members of the company ap
pearing in last night's performance, there
Is much to be said In praise for their
good work." !
Sale of Seats for Bfclll Company.
The sale of seats for Mr. James NeiH's
engagement of one week commencing
Monday, April 15, with special matinees
Wednesday and Saturday, at 2:15, will
open this morning at the Marquam Grand
for the entire engagement. The plays
that Mr. Neill has selected for presenta
tion here are, "A Social Highwayman,"
"The Lottery of Love," "A Bachelor's Ro
mance," and "Under Two Flags."
The first-named is by Miss Mary F.
Stone, from the story by the same name
that ran with such great popularity in
LIpplncott's Magazine. "The Lotlery of
Love," is the best of all of the Augustln
Daly comedies, and "A Bachelor's Ro
mance" Is the greatest success of the last
Neill season in this city. It is a comedy
in four acts from the pen of Miss Martha
Morton and in which Sol Smith Russell
starred so successfully three seasons ago.
"Under Two Flags" is a dramatization of
Ouida'e famous novel, now in its third
month of success at the Garden Theater,
New York City.
Another Victory for
Eilcrs Piano House
Fine New 843Q0 Kimball Pipe Organ
for Vincent Church, Spokane.
Word has Just been received by Eilers
Piano House that the order for the new
Pl( U15UII 1U1 VlUliCUL AM. -EJ. V.I1U1I.U, u
Spokane, has been secured by Mr. Held
inger, manager of the Spokane branch
of Eilers Piano House. This Is the first
pipe organ to be erected at Spokane, and
will be a beautiful Instrument equipped
with all the latest appliances used In up-to-date
doe orcan-buildinjr. The action
J will be the Kimball tubular pneumatic
system, ana xnere win De neanj awu
speaking pipes in the instrument.
There will, of course, be two manuals,
or keyboards, besides the pedal manual.
The lartrest Dine will be sixteen feet long.
and larce enough for a boy to crawl-
through. The smallest will be scarcely
large enough for a fly to enter, and will
not be quite three Inches long. The total
amount of tubing to be used in this organ
will be over a mile In length. Com
pressed air will be supplied by a water
motor, at a pressure of about a hundred
pounds per square inch.
The organ will be 25 feet at its highest
point, and the outside pipes will be hand
somely decorated with gold.
This order, following closely upon the
heels of the big order received from. Presi
dent Snow for the magnificent now $23,000
organ for the Mormon Tabernacle at Salt
Lake, is once more an eloquent indorse
ment of the Kimball instruments, for In
this case, as also In the case of the organ
orders received from the Tabernacle, the
Humphrey Memorial Church, at Eugene,
Notre Dame Church, at San Francisco,
and others, the question was decided in
favor of a Kimball entirely upon merit
alone as in each case there were a round
dozen builders who submitted bids for
organs of Inferior construction for a great
deal less money.
And thus, same as In high-grade pianos,
and In reed organs, the Kimball carries
off highest honors everywhere.
A sample Kimball tubular pneumatic
pipe organ is now being erected in our
warerooms, and will be ready for Inspec
tion In a day or two. We shall probably
arrange an Informal historical and de
scriptive lecture and organ recital while
Professor Milner is in the city, and tq
Which all Interested In organ construction
and organ or church music will be cor

ranged, announcement will be made Sun

The usual 5 cent cigar smoker
never realizes the peculiar charm
of a 3 for 50 cents Havana Perfecto, and con
sumers satisfied with common five cent cigars,
will not likely appreciate the special purpose and flavor of an "Import"
cigar. Its hearty'friends are the smokers of finest Havana goods.
