f TffJS 3J0RNIKG pREGOfflAK, W3RNESPA3T. MAY 15,. ISGf. t r CITY NEWS IN BRIEF Amusement Tanljrht CORDRATS THEATER Last performance of Hal Beta's lflyll ohe South, "Roanoke." Street Coiijsiok.-An electric car and Allen & Lewis' cigar delivery wagon came into collision at the Intersection of Wash ington and Sixth streets yesterday after noon. Jfo one was hurt, and no serious damage was done, but the cigar wagon, of course, got the -worst of it. One of the plate-glass windows was smashed, one of the fore "wheels was dished the wrong way, and the nervous system of both the wagon and driver badly shocked. Unfortunately lor the crowd which gath ered no cigars were strewn around the street, and so the affair did not end in smoke. Just who was to blame only a court and jury Is entitled to say, but some thought the motorman was driving too fast and others thought the driver of the wagon was driving too slow. The rule of the road as far as pedestrians are concerned is to give the right of way to anything on wheels, especially a bicycle, but where both parties to the accident were on wheels, this cannot be made to apply. A rule tha( delivery wagons give the right of way to electric cars would fit the case. A motorman on a passing car remarked that he knew that wagon would get caught before long, as the driver had a habit of cutting In ahead of electric cars. "He cut in ahead of me yesterday, and came very near getting smashed," continued the man who may be suspected of sympathy with his fellow employe. Wants Protection From Bark, A person who signs himself "Enraged Citi zen," and evidently deserves the title, -writes to inform The Oregonian that he rooms near the corner of Seventh and Taylor streets, and that a man near by las two hunting dogs which he keeps shut up, and which indulge in violent paroxysms or bariang every time any one passes In the night This disturbs bis slumbers and ruins his peace of mind, hence his letter. That he has any just cause for complaint is not evident Does he know of any one in the city whose slumber is not dlstrubed nightly 'by the barking of dogs? Dogs delight to bark, and to bite when they get a chance. If the owner did not keep them shut up they would be barking all around the block and disturbing many more people. Perhaps the complainant snores and an noys the man in the next room, and what recourse has he? Just what advice one can offer who Is not at all Interested In the case Is a conundrum. Wearing ear mutts might deaden the noise so as to enable one to sleep. Perhaps the owner of the dogs might muzzle them if po litely requested to do so. If not "En raged Citizen" may perhaps be able to. buy them and stop their barking. As a last resort he can move, which has per haps occurred to him. New Buildings Costing $50,000. Build ing permits were Issued yesterday by the Superintendent of Streets for structures aggregating in value $50,200. Walter F. Burrell took out a p'ermlt for a three story residence on Hawthorne avenue, be tween East Twenty-fifth and East Twenty-sixth streets, to cost $35,000. It will stand In a beautiful and sightly tract of Jive acres, and will be one of the most palatial homes in the city. The Port land General Electric Company took out a permit for the erection of an auxiliary power-house of one story on North Front street between Rock and Colton streets, just south of the O. F. & N. boatyard, to cost $7000. The plant to be located in -this building comprises 15 steam boilers. two steam engines, one of 2000 horse power, and one of 1300 horsepower, and dynamos enough to generate 32,000 horse power of electricity. Other permits were to James Aylword for a $2300 house, W. H. Bishop for a $2000 house, A. E. Far rel for a $1400 house, and to the St Clair Company for a $2500 smokehouse. On a Different Pum. The women of the St Matthew's Episcopal Church are conducting their rummage sale on some what different principles from, those, which governed the Unitarian sale. They have a 5-cent counter, a 10 and 15-cent coun ter and so on, and their goods are marked In plain figures. They might get more for many things if they adjusted the prices in accordance with the eagerness shown by prospective purchasers. They have another elegant dress suit displayed in the window, and are waiting for an other Chinaman to come along and buy it It is believed that the introduction of swallow-tailed coats, plug hats and open vests among the heathens will go fur ther toward civilizing them than allow ing them to slaughter many missionaries. The stock at this rummage sale Is of extra quality, and poor people find many very desirable articles there at very low prices. SnviA rE Grasse Reef. The work of blasting and removing the Sylvia de Grasso Reef in front of Astoria Is pro gressing favorably. The new drill scow built for the work has proved very effi cient and much more practicable than the platform on spuds, with which It was first attempted to do the work, A num ber of holes have been drilled and blasts exploded, and the work of dredging up the debris has been commenced. The prospects appear to be favorable for the removal of the reef, which has long been an obstruction to the navigable channel in front of Astoria. The bones of the old bark Sylvia de Grasse, which was wrecked on this reef, have disappeared, and when the reef is removed her name will soon be forgotten. AUlsea Lighthouses, A dispatch from Washington published yesterday, in re gard to lighthouses in Alaska, was slight ly muddled in transmission. Plans for a general system of lighthouses for South eastern and- Wjfcstgrn Alaska, 15 light houses in all. were prepared and submit ted to the board by Captain Langfltt, TTnlted States Engineers. The plans were returned approved, without modification. The appropriation made for lighthouses In Alaska was only $300,000, which would not go far toward constructing the entire sys tem. It Is contemplated to construct only two this season, one on Sentinel Island, and one on Southeast Five Fingers. Cap tain Iangfltt suggested that these could probably be built by the Government cheaper than by contract, but the board decided to call -for bids for the work, and these bids are now being advertised for. Is This Lawful? A piece of new plank sidewalk on Third street between Alder and Washington, in front of the Pan theon Saloon, attracted considerable at tention and much comment yesterday. It was the general idea that the law did not allow of laying wooden sidewalks in that vicinity, but this was laid yesterday morning, all the same. A policeman said that the owner of the property, Mr. Wil helm, would probably be arrested.. Jt Is understood that his tenants offered to contribute $50 toward the cost of a ce dent sidewalk. Str.

They will be sup plied with tags and, until further orders, will not make seizure of wheels. The idea is to give bicyclists a little more grace.

About 100 discharged Philippine volunteers will arrive this morning from San Francisco. They will go East over the O. R. & N., some by way of Huntington and the re mainder via Spokane.

Wasco Countt Sheep; F. n, Jones, who has large interests In sheep in Wasco County, Is in the city.- He says, prospects .for sheepmen are very bright tills season. There has been a fine lambing season, and. the increase all through Eastern Oregon Is larger than usual. In one band ,of ewes there were so many twins that after 150 of the weaker ones had been killed the increase amounted to 1C5 per cent and the Increase generally averages 10 per cent. Some bands are already shorn, but generally sheepmen are about In the, middle of shearing. There is some scab in Wasco County this season for the first time In many years, but It has caused little damage, and yields readily to treat ment The grass on the lower ranges Is drying up, and as soon as shearing is over the bands will move to fresh pas tures. Not Satisfied With Decision-. Sheriff Frazler Is not altogether satisfied with the ruling of the District Attorney that he is not entitled to expenses in making an arrest in a criminal case unless he Is acting under a warrant. If a crime is perpetrated outside of the city limits It is the duty of the Sheriff and not the police to make the arrest If the crime Is a serious one, such as murder, the WILL HAVE NEW BUILDING FLORENCE CltlTTEXTON HOME TO BE WELL SUPPLIED.

J The following letter from the Noble Refining Company,-of Cleve land, Ohio, indicates clearly the esteem in which The Oregonian as an advertising medium is held by Eastern Advertisers. CLEVELAND, O., May 6, 1001. The Portland Oregonian, Portland, Oregon: ,. Gentlemen: We are Just sending remittance to the S. C. Beckwlth Special Agency of New Yorlc for SO cents In payment of want "ad" placed in your paper April 24, 25 and 27. Wc received the marked copies wllch you sent us, for which accept thanks. The Oregonian far exceeds our expectations. You have our con gratulations. Results are entirely satisfactory, and as puch we shall never talss an opportunity to speak a good word for you. Yours truly, THE NOBLE REFINING CO., L. A. RITZMAN, Mgr. --------- concluded his business in & few words and departed. Mr. Hawkins watched him walk by all the relics again and descend the stairs without looking at a single curio. "I'll bet that man doesn't even know there's a free museum In the building," sighed Mr. Hawkins. BERRIES IN OLD. BOXES. Sheriff must use diligence and send men out at once, without waiting for a war rant If he did not -do so the offender might escape, the county would be put to expense in locating him, and the Sheriff criticised for neglect of duty. The sub ject will be further argued at the meet ing of the Commissioners today. Automobiles in Dawson. A letter re cently received In Portland from Daw son, dated April 9, states that there are now four automobiles In that far North ern city. As might have been expected, they have so far proved a decided fail ure, for an auto requires a sufficiently broad road upon which to travel, and the main thoroughfares outside of Dawson are narrow trails skirting the base of the mountains, close to the sides of the creeks. At the time of writing the snow still lay deep on the ground, and the' auto driver was apt to get off the beaten path and flounder helplessly In the deep snow. The automobile Is more a child of the asphalt or the macadamized road than of a miners' trail, and makers of centrifugal snow plows need never fear encroachment by the horseless, carriage upon their special line of work. These t e hlcles are the first of the kind persons who have been In Dawson for two or three. years have seen, and when they arrivea the old settlers must surely have thought that home and civilization were coming nearer to the Arctic Circle. Muscovite Initiation. Kremlin Baku, Imperial Order of Muscovites, had an In teresting work meeting Monday evening, initiating six candidates, among them be ing Grand Master Welch and Grand Treasurer Miller, of the I. O. O. F. In the encounter between the "bear" and Dr. Miller It was the general opinion that the bear came out second best. The Muscovites will co in full force to Baker City, but leave their paraphernalia at t home. They expect to admit quite a number of new memtferiv omitting the usual ceremonies of Initiation on account of the great expense of carrying the out fit with them. This order will furnish one of the most attractive features of the parade there next week. For the Strawberry Fields. A num ber of families are arranging to leave Portland for the Hood Hlver strawberry fields next Monday. They expect to go by steamboat and will take tents and camp outfits along to enable them to do their own housekeeping while the plck Insr season lasts. The price paid by grow ers has been fixed at 2 cents a box, and this It Is expected will enable an expert picker to earn $2 a day. Where a family of four or five persons work together, the total earnings amount to consider able. The picking season may last three or four weeks, as the berries In the valley ripen first the pickers taking In the fields on the uplands later on. Drawbridge Approved. The draw bridge built across the Clearwater just below Kamlah was Inspected a few days ago by Captain LangflU, United States Engineers, and approved by him, and the citizens of Kamlah are happy. There Is no use for the draw at present, but boats have ascended the Clearwater to Kamlah, and may do so again, as the stream Is one of the navigable waters of the United States. Will Beoin at Once. N. C. Ovlatt and Cord Sengstake, who are to have charge of the compilation of the delin quent tax rolls, will begin work at once. A force of five clerks will assist the hours of employment being from 5 to 11 P. M. If It becomes necessary a second shift will be put on to work through the rest of the night It Is not practicable to have a large force engaged all to gether. Will Build Soon. A party wall agree ment between A. Beck, the owner of the lot adjoining the one on Sixth and Stark streets, upon which a brick build ing is to be erected, and the Merchants Investment & Trust Company, which Is to erect the building, was recorded yes terday. Mr. Beck says that his premises are leased for a short term, otherwise he would build now also. The Rummage Sale, conducted by the ladles of St Matthew's Church, at 113 Third street, will be open every afternoon from 1 P. M. until C P. M. Donations will be received from SAM. until 6 P.

Prelim inary plans, and specifications for a light house and fog signal station on Desde mona sands, at the mouth of the Colum bia, prepared by Captain Langfitt, United States Engineers, and forwarded to the Llirhthouse Board, have been returned ap proved. The lighthouse will probably be built this season. Lands in Demand., There are many people at Salem now, taking up lieu lands. All sorts of public lands are In demand. The indications are that a very large number of Immigrants will settle in Oregon within the next four or five years. Can Get His Discharge.

The new building will therefore be- a conspicuous structure In that portion of the East Side. The plans submitted by the architect provide for a sick ward, where patients can be made comfortable without send ing them to hospitals, as has necessarily been the practice heretofore. At the meetings, of the managers yester day, the affairs of the Home were found to be In a satisfactory condition. The Institution has until recently been sup ported by voluntary subscriptions of char itable people, but the last Legislature appropriated $2500 annually for the suc ceeding two years. This money Is being carefully husbanded and made to go as far as possible. Fourteen adults and seven babies found refuge In the Home during the past month. The unfortunate mothers are mostly from the poorer classes and so h'ave no friends who are able to contribute to their support. Were It not for this institution, there is nr telling what would become of many of them, but through the fosterlntr care of, the Home, many of the mothers are enaoiea 10 matte tneir own living in Hon orable walks of life, while the children become useful members of society. The Home has been established In Portland 14 years. Some'$1600 In all have been con tributed by Mr. Crlttenton toward Its maintenance. Mrs. A. R. RIggs, the general manager of the Institution, has the welfare of womankind at heart, and has done good work during the. years of her Incumbency. Strawberry Boxes ShORld ftot Be Used Over and Over Again. Dealers complain of the unattractive appearance of boxes in 'which strawber ries are offered for sale" by growere. .Some of the boxes. have been used two and three seasons. They are stained and ihi tin capping is corroded, A bill mak ing It a mlBdemeanor t6 use strawberry boxes a second time was Introduced In' the Legislature last Winter, but failed to pass. Foed Commissioner Bailey re grets the defeat of the measure. He Bays the boxes are cheap and ponaumera do not like the looks of strawberries In dirty boxes. Old boxes, he Bays; are great distributers of fruit diseases. The grower Is seldom returned the boxes in which his fruit Is delivered. He leaves k certain number of boxes of strawber ries at a store and the .next time he comes to town he receives a correspond ing number of empty boxes. If the empties happen to be from a grower whose plants or, trees' have disease or insect pests it is a ten io one shot that the fellow who gets the. boxes gets some thing' else with them. PATCHING A CROSSING. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Seats on. iale Today. One of the most popular features of the recent Y. M. C. A. gymnastic exhibition was the work of the Brownies, a band of clever little totB, In their parade and their "Fun 'on the Side." These little people will perform again next Friday- evening at the Marquant Grand Theater, and as they are rehearsing carefully under the direction of Professor Rlngler, and thereby becoming more proficient dally, it Is safe to say they will, make a greater hit than ever. All the other features which proved such winners on the former occasion will be reproduced, and several new ones will bo added. Another fact which should not be overlooked Is that the music will be of a high order, and that there will he plenty of it at frequent intervals. The sale of seats for this exhibition will open at the box office of the theater at 10 o'clock this morning. Temporary Repairs at First aad Harrises Streets. The Crossing Of Flrs and Morrison streets Is being repaired with asphalt much to the satisfaction of teamsters and wheelmen who travel those busy thor oughfares. For several months the street car rails, of which there are six on First street and four on Morrison, have formed an elevated network like a gridiron sev eral Inches above the worn grade of the crossing. Teamsters driving over this gridiron were obliged to drive very slowly to keep from breaking axles and springs. Wheelmen had to dismount or take chances on breaking rims and spokes. Pedestrians would gaze on the little ponds formed among the rails and sigh for" the city government that was ap parently unable to keep Its principal streets In even respectable condition. The immense traffic, on both First and Morrison streets wlll continue to wear the asphalt patching rapidly, and in a few weeks holes will begin to form along, side the Tails again, as teams ter3 are conipelled to turn out very frequently to permit the passage of street cars, and this turning out Is what grates the asphalt, while the steel rails hold their own against the Iron tires of vehicles.

Prominent Man Visiting' the Hall Ignores the Mnsenm, City L. L. Hawkins, who has done so much for Portland's Free Museum, likes to see visitors to the City Hall appreciate the various curious arid Instructive specimens he has placed there. Yesterdaj', however, Mr. Hawkins had quite a wet blanket thrown on his enthusiasm as he watched a wealthy citizen pass by the showcases, full of pretty things, without casting a glance in their direction. The man had not been In the City Hall for years and Mj. Hawkins knew It, so expected at least that he would pause before the big whale bone, the Astoria meteorite, the skull of the mastodon, or the collection of gor geous birds at the head of the second staircase. The visitor was looking for the Mayor and had no thought for anything else. When he was piloted to the 'Mayor's office a Telegram reporter was there. "Is this the Mayor?" No, it wasn't.
