CORDRATS THEATER Harry Corson Clarice la -"What Did Tomfclns Dor Gxira ik the Coast "Raxqe. A settler, whose farm is In a valley among the foot hills of tfie Coast range, -where a brawling stream comes down from the mountains and starts on its winding way through the broad Willamette region, has been spending a. few days in the city. He was looking through the store of a dealer in hides, pelts,, furs, etc., Saturday, as if searching for something. He said he was trying to find out whether the dealer pur chased beaver skins and deer hides or not. He wife told that even if a man -violated the law by purchasing such articles, he would not be likely to leave them ex posed, and take the chance Df being fir rested and fined. The settler said he knew the law forbade the killing of beaver and deer, but he had to kill them occasionally, and he had an Idea that some one might buy the pelts on the quiet. He explained chat it is impracticable for hltn to get fresh beef or mutton where he lives, and as deer are plentiful, when he needed fresh meat he killed one. He has an idea that the deer are TOade to furnish meat to people who live far from butcher shops, and that he has a Tight to kill them for food. The law, he said, does not run where he lives. As to beaver, he said that there is a swamp on his place caused by beavers damming a small stream, and, in draining this swamp, he came in con tact -with a whole colony of beavers. He might have killed, two or three -dozen of tlpm if he could sell their skins. The dealer asked him if he had ever eaten beaver tails. He -replied that He Is very fond of them; In fact, he does not know of any greater luxury than a beaver's tail Daked in the ashes. He has eaten many of them. From, this it Tvas- Judged that he probably killed the tails, at least, of the beavers found on his claim, and most likely he had tbe skins of the btavers themselves put away In a safe -place. He was told that he might find some one among the fur dealers In this city who would buy his beaver and deer skins, and take chances of being fined, but that there are few who care to do so. Order Aoaikst a Foreign "Lottery. The Postmaster-General has issued an order denying J. Gorber, of Budapest, Hungary, the use of the United States malls for the purpose of .conducting a lottery distributing prizes. All Postmas ters are forbidden to certify any postal money order drawn in favor of Gorber. and are directed to Inform the remitter that payment has been forbidden, and that the amount will be returned upon the presentation of a duplicate money order applied tor and obtained under the regu lations of the department. Postmasters jtre instructed to return all letters and ad vices, whether registered or not, and other snail matter, which shall arrive at their offices directed to "Gorber, to the Postmas ters at the offices at which they were originally mailed, to be delivered to the senders with the word "fraudulent" plain ly -written or stamped upon the outside of the letters or matter. "Where there is nothing to Indicate who are the senders of letters not registered or, other matter. Postmasters are instructed to send the letters and matter to the dead-letter of fice, with the word "fraudulent" plain ly written or stamped thereon, to he dis posed of as other dead matter, under the laws and regulations applicable thereto. These orders win he strictly carried out, -and will probably break up Gorber's busi ness In the TJnited States. Portland's Touch of Hot Weather. People who have been finding fault with the cool, showery weather, which has been the rule of late, got what they wanted In the shape of a hot day Saturday, and more than they wanted. Saturday was unanimously voted a "corker," but the night put a gilded cupola on the day. Hot was no name for it, and people who have found an extra blanket comfortable many nights during the past month slept with windows arid doors, open and the lightest covering to he found; that Is, if they slept any or used any cover. Plants can not wilt, because they stand on the cool, moist ground, but people traveling over cement sidewalks were glad to hunt the shady side of the street. Yesterday morning it was cloudy and a few drops of rain fell, but the clauds soon cleared away and the sun came out in full strength. One who can so drK-lng early in the morning and late in the evening, and spend the remainder of the day In cold storage, can get about as much enjoyment out of life as any one. Plenty op Oregon Vegetables. Port land people have been consuming large quantities of California vegetables, but no longer do so. Oregon vegetables are be ginning to come In quite freely, and such asparagus, spinach and green peas as the Oregon gardeners furnish quite spoil the market for the California products. As paragus a foot in length, green, tender dnd delicious; spinach a foot in height, and peas smiling and tasting as only freshly plucked peas do; cucumbers, let nice, both hothouse and "head," and many other vegetables of home production are plentiful. Oregon, strawberries will be in full supply in a few days, and Oregon fcrccn currants and gooseberries are al ready plentiful. Rhubarb, one of the tnost delicious anQ wholesome of Spring vegetables, has been plentiful all the Spring. Cherries are beginning to turn red, and the trees are loaded, and all kinds of fruit will be plentiful. Excursion From Georgia. Georgia visitors and their wives invaded Portland yesterday. They represented the Georgia , division of the Order of Railway Conduc tors, on their way from attending the 2Sth session o the order at St. Paul, Minn. The party numbered about 120. Af ter breakfast they boarded a steamer and enjoyed a boat ride on the Columbia River. Returning to Portland, the visitors walked and drove about the city. One of the party -was Interviewed at the Union Depot by an Oregonlan reporter, and the Georgian said: "Po'tland Is a. powahful pretty place. The weather here's like what wo have down South, yes, sun. I heard it rained 'most all the time In Po'tland, and I'm goin to tell the folks at home that It's not so. Po'tland's all right." Addition to.T. M. C A. Fund. An earnest effort v&s made in five city churches yesterday to raise the 14000 neces sary Jto complete the building fund of $45, 000 for the new Young Men's Christian Association building, but only $505 was raised In three of the churches, with the two other churches to hear from. The 5503 was raised as follows: First Pres byterian Church $268, First Baptist $155, and First Congregational $80. The two churches from which no reports were re ceived last night are the Cumberland Preshyterlan and Calvary Presbyterian, hut their reports will be ready today. The $45,000 fund must be completed by Satur day, and a vigorous canvass for .subscrip tions will bo conducted until Friday night. High School Debate. Friday evening a. debate will be held at the High School for the medal offered bji the Alumni As sociation to encourage such contests. All the entries for the debate are girls. The question is an unusual one to be chosen by girls. It is: "Resolved, That the United States should adopt a free trade policy during the present Administration." The contestants are: For the affirmative, An nie Dltchburn and Kate Protzman: for the negative, Beth Bradley and Edwina Mas tick. Merrt-Makers bt Carload. Twenty five carloads of excursionists went to Sa lem yesterday to attend the outing of the Federated Trades Assembly, and Rinded at the capital about 1200 strong. viiey visited the penitentiary andother public buildings.

Is in Its heyday; every leai ana Djaae of grass is- at its freshest and greenest; everything is bourgeoning and blooming and even the saddest heart might "pleas ure take to see all nature gay." What a wealth of foliage all the trees have, how lush and lusty the grass Is, and what an abundance bf flowers of every 4ue meets the gaze of tho stroller around town! The maple trees along the streets probably have the most abundant foliage of any. They are loaded with winged seeds which, when the frosts come, will come fluttering down, covering sidewalks and filling gutters, and next Winter will furnish an abundant supply of -food for the pretty grossbeaks, wnen the cold drives them down from the mountains. Other shade trees are not far behind. Elms, chestnuts, poplars and many others are fairly loaded with foliage. In. which not a single faded leaf Is to be found. A huge cottonwood shadowing a cottage with Its glossy, leathery leaves, makes, when the wind blows through them, a- noise like the murmur of many waters. And the roses, what a grand display of beauty they -jflke, although yet far from being at their begt. A stroll through residence sections discloses cottages and stately mansions, over which climbing roses of- many colors are clambering white, pale yellow, pink, red of many shades and of varieties In numerable. There are flowers of all kinds, -from the exuberant peons' down to the modest lily of the valley, and the ten der hlue forget-me-not, but the rose is the queen of flowers, and overshadows all others. 'Phone Boxes Made Here. Seeing a teamster delivering a huge load of fine matched lumber in front of a carpenter shop on Stark street, a passer-by steppSd inside to Inquire what possible use such a pile of lumber could be put to In such a shop. The proprietor of the place smil ingly remarked that he had used up a great many loads like that within the past year or two. He proceeded to explain that he made telephone boxes of the lum ber. He said he had made hundreds" of them. When asked what he did with so many" telephone boxes, he said he shipped them all over the country. Finally, to satisfy the curiosity of his visitor, he took him Into a back shop, where the telephone boxes were in course of con struction, and explained that he made them for the Pacific States Telephone & Telegraph Company. They are made with double walls and doors, are sound proof, and are used as long distance telephone offices in country towns. They are made and set up in sections, so that they can be knocked down and crated, and in this con dition are shipped all over Oregon, Wash ington, California, Idaho and Wyoming. The double doors are hung so as to open and shut simultaneously, and to stand partly open when the box is not occupied. They are grained to resemble oak, and are neat, substantial and convenient, be ing 3& by 4 feet and 6 feet in height. Walking Across the Continent. An other tramp, Arthur Stanley Metcalf, who is probably too lazy to work and not ashamed to beg, Is on his way to tho Pacific Coast on foot. He started from Boston, and, llkeother tramps, Is "walk ing on a wager of $1000" to complete the Journey in a year. His arrival In St. Louis is noted by the Globe-Democrat, which says: "According to his own figures, which he carries with him In a gigantic roll, Metcalf has been almost five months 'hoofing it to St Louis, and unless he accelerates his speed the goal will not be within hailing distance with a fog horn by January next. Metcalf Is ac companied by a dog. He has laid two such animals by the wayside with the inscription on the headstones, 'Walked to Death.' In order to avoid a recurrence and to keep the dog from wearing down his legts, he has provided the dog with two pairs of boots, which he slips on the animal's feet on cinder railroad beds. Met calf carries a roll of 'papyrus,' upon which are written the signatures of Mayors, Postmasters, barbers, bakers and others he has come in contact with on his Journey." There are -enough tramps on this Coast now. Some one should rope Arthur Stanley Metcalf and put him at some useful work, and not permit him to waste'hls useless life in wearing out dogs. Oak Grubs Put to Good Use. Oregon oak "grubs," as -young oak trees are called, probably because so many of them are grubbed out, are now being extensive ly utilized in the manufacture of pick handles, ledge handles, single and double trees, etc Some contractors use no other kind, and a man has started a factory for these articles near this city, and is doing well. The wood has to be split out and the articles made by hand, as the grain must be followed or the handles, etc., are no good. When properly made, these handles last twice as long and cost only about half as much as Eastern hick ory handles, and the workmen like them much better, as they have a spring which saves the muscles from jarring, besides adding force to the blow. As there is no end to the supply of oak grubs In this state, there should soon come an end to the Importing of pick handles, etc. Shirt Waists for LiE-ster-Carriers. Portland letter-carriers have not yet felt It necessary to take advantage of the amendment to the postalaws and regu lations allowing them to wear Shirt waists, but Saturday's hot weather put them In mind of it The" amendment follows: "During the heated term Postmasters may permit letter-carriers to wear a neat shirt waist or loose fitting blouse, Instead of coat and vest; the same to be made of light gray chambray gingham, light gray cheviot, or other light gray washable ma terial; to be worn with turn-down collar, dark tie and a neat belt; all to be uniform at each office." It Is too bad that letter carriers .must be confined to material of a light gray color, as. if they were permit ted to choose more brilliant colors, they would brighten up the city.

Lizzie Williams and Henry Thomas, both colored, were arrested yesterday morn ing by Sergeant Moore and Policeman Bolger for-frequenting an opium joint, at 91 Second street. The police saw them enter the den. The door was immediately locked by the, Chinese guard. Moore, "who Is over six feet In height. peeped over a partition and saw the woman smoklhg opium. The problem then was how to enter the place without scar ing away the Chinamen. Just then "Hobo," the police dog which follows Bolger, began to bark furiously, and the Chinese guard unlocked the door to see what the matter was. When he saw Sergeant Moore he shouted an alarm, and the outpost and every Chinaman within having made a break for the outside, Thomas and the woman were sel2ed. "I've done nothla' I only escorted the woman to this place to see her smoke," said Thomas. But he was told that the excuse was as old ks the hills. WHERE TO DINE TODAY. .

The Order of the Nobles of the Mystic Shrine dates back to the year 650, A. D., when it was Instituted in Mecca, by the son-in-law of Mohammed, as an inquisi tion or vengeance committee, rendered necessary by the failure of the laws, as then administered, to execute criminals, It was equally devoted, however, to the cause of truth, mercy and religious tol eration, but its grand and mystic purpose can only be known to the initiated.,! lit numbered among its members many df' the most eminent or the educated classes, and has ever been held in the highest cs Jgem by the secret orders of -the East ern countries. Founded by a Moham medan its rites, ceremonies and emblems are characteristic of the Orient, from which it emanates, but it does not teach nor require belief In the Mohammedan religion, the Jew and the Christian be ing admitted on an equality with the Aios lem. The order flourishes In Arabia, Per- sla. Ejrypt and Turkey. The requisites for membership In the order In America are those of a Knight Templar, or of a 32d degree Scottish Rite Mason.

The delegates of Oregon and Washing ton UlVlSJOn, irUVCIClS riUlCUUVC JWOUU- i atlon of America, will leave Portland to- morrow night via -the O. R. & N. for Old Point Comfort, Va., to attend the .Na tional convention of the T. P. A., which will be held there from June 3 to 7. The delegates are A. N. Smith, president, E. Shelley Morgan, secretary ana treasurer, Alexander Kunz, A. H. Devers, David M. I Dunne, Frank P. King and Otto Guth- 1 man.- They win go aireci to ot. iuuis, where they will join the . delegates from Missouri, Illinois, Indiana, Wisconsin and several other Middle West and Western divisions. At Louisville, Ky., a stop of two" hours will be made and the delegates will be the guests of the Louisville Com mercial Club, after which the Kentucky delegates will join the party, and -the train will proceed to Old Point Comfort, arriving at 6:30 next Monday evening. The principal object which the Oregon delegation has In view Is to secure the National convention of the association for Portland In 1S02; and from all indica tions It will succeed. Last year four delegates A. N. Smith, E. Shelley Mor- I gan, Alexander Kunz and A. H. Devers were sent to New uneans wiin a view to securing the convention" for Portland this year, but after a hard fight the con vention was given to the VJrginla DI- -lsion. which made a struggle ror it ho. vbbt hofnrA anfl lost to New Orleans, i There Is an unwritten law in tne asso elation that the division making the sec ond best -fight one year and returning the next year is entitled to the convention, so Oregon stands this year in the same position that "Virginia did last year. Not Withstanding the fact that everything Is In favor of Oregon and. that success Is practically assured, the division is sending a full delegation, who go with the deter mination to accomplish their purpose.

(To the Editor.) Whenever one fails to control his tongue and the audible outrage thus perpetrated Is made visible In cold type In the col umns of the daily newspaper, a denial of such report becomes in order, and the Whole blame .Is then conveniently shifted on the newspaper reporter. We have such an example in the incident reported from New Brunswick,. ,N. J., where the Paullst fathers are doing buslnese at the old Catholic stand, the same Institution which Leo X, as quoted by Froude In his "life and Letters of Erasmus," de clared a verv profitable iable, . Whatever thihshortcomirtgfe of the news paper reporter may be for he. too, no less than Tertulian, has a right to plead, "Homo sum," etc. he certainly would not and could not so deliberately misrepresent any of the venerable brothers, who, Im agining themselves Pauls, go among tho lost sheep with their message of salva tion. Hence, it would seem sufficiently certain that the report, as It appear" ' the newspapers, is undoubtedly correct, and, in ordet to calm the sea of trouble occasioned by its publication, these holy men concluded it best to "deny the al legation and to defy the allegator." There is, however, nothing very extra ordinary In the thunder of the Paulist brothers, nay, of late, It is 'rather quite common." The readers of The Oregon may possibly recall the fact-jhat abput a year ago a local representative of tne Holy Roman Church expressed' himself in the columns of The Oregonlan In un mistakable terms as to the real attitude of these servants of God toward the Pro testant world. -'The history of Protestant civilization, in Europe. America and the islands of the Pacific," proclaimed this ghosily practitioner, Is but "an unclean bird that has hovered over the world for the last 400 years"; that from "the homes of godly Massachusetts, to the city by the Golden Gate, Infanticide and empty Yankee schoolhouses prevail. Beware of the ground you tread," proclaimed this sanctified by the Holy Ghost brother to the heretics, "It is holy and consecrated by the blood of the martyrs, and the atmosphere of the Catholic church la fraerant with the saintly odor of the gospel of charity." And what an odor there ia to that gospel-craft charity! It smells to heaven. Those who have lived any length of time In countries where the power of the old man on the seven hills still holds its own in conformity with the usages of bygone daya, kndw only too well how non-Catholics fare under that most celebrated charity. Yet these breth ren, when themselves in non-Catholic countries, not only enjoy all the rights of citizenship which they deny to others in Catholic countries, but, v under some pretext or another, they are constantly hurling anathemas upon every one who does not accept their theological guidance in the affaire ot this world and ail other worlds to come. Just witness the recent combination of all the Roman Catholic societies in the United States under the general man agement of the ecclesiastics, a body of men whose allegiance is due first and last to a foreign power that claims absolute authority not only In the affairs of the ".-.."uwi.J' uu. w..jr ... i.uc u.i.u...o uj. IUO ecclesla. but also in secular, and that this organization, according to their own declarations, Is to be used for political ends. Follow this with the more recent proceedings of the Association of Catho lic Colleges, held In Chicago last April, in which all educational legislation tnrougnout tne union was attacked by them as "being partial and prejudicial to the rights of Individuals and religious institutions." And, ill connection with thlo, think of the fact that hot another of all the sectarian bodies, "nor of such" as do not adhere to any of these special roads to heaven, have ever come forward with such protests, denunciations, con- demnatlons and demands that "the state should recognize their schools on the same basis with Its own educational institu tions which are supported by public funds.' While this association, under the leadership- of the Right- Rev. De Conaty, of the Catholic University of Washington, D.' C, wa3 thus resOluting, words of cheer from across the sea in the form of an apostolic benediction from Leo XIII Were read for the edification of the conference. ' OUr free press, too, does not eeem to escape the most tender care of these consecrated In tho blood of the Lamb latter-day saints.
