CORDRAT5 THEATER Earry Corson Cltrkfc in "What Did Tomfcln I07" Idlers Watchinq. Workers. Business and labor o all kinds "were very gener ally suspended yesterday, but In a few places -where there was urgency for the completion of a Job work went oif. The crowds sauntering around and making a holiday appeared to take much pleasure In looking at any one who "was at work. At the corner of Sixth and Stark a lot of men and teams worked all day trying to complete the excavation for the founda tion of a building which it is desired shall be completed as soon as possible. The excavation was deep, and a steam engine and cable was -U6ed to. assist the loaded teams tip the steep incline to the -pavement. Four horses were attached to a loaded .wagon -and had to do their best, with all the help the engine could give, to get It out. A crowd of people lingered around all day to see the horses pull and hear the engine cough when worked up to its full capacity. AVhen the cable was detached from the wagon the engine would "be out of breath. In a few minutes the escape valve would be roaring. When another wagon, was hitched on, the en gine would whizz and the steam would hiss, but before the wagon was upon the street the engine would be grunting and puffing like a tired animal. The succes sive crowds who watched the operations agreed that the engine was a good friend to the horses. A workman laying a bit of mosaic pavement In the -doorway of a store in the Washington block, taking ad vantage of the store being closed to com plete the job, was surrounded by a crowd all day, who "watched his every movement with as much interest as if they1 were learning his business. Sometimes the crowd would get so large that those on the outside could not Bee what was going on, and the larger the crowd became, the more joined it to see what the excitement was all about, and when they began to crowd, the Inner circle would; break out and give them a chance to see the man work. Benefit or Bird Protection. The benefit ,of the law protecting song birds is evidenced by the increased number of such birds which now make their homes vithin the city limits and the fearlessness they display. Robins search for food In the streets and grounds of residences, and pay no attention to passing -cars, teams or pedestrians, having full confi dence that they will not be molested. They come up under the windows where people are sitting and proceed to pull fat worms from the ground, looking up once in a while as if to say, "See how slick I can do this," and after collecting as many worms as they can hold in their bill?, fly up to their nest in a shade tree to All their young. Out in-Lone Fir ceme tery a number of blackbirds and bluejays have their haunts, and it was wonderful to see how at their ease these usually shy birds w ere yesterday, when the ceme tery was thronged with people. Thy flit ted about, sang, chattered or scolded, and .paid no attention to the crowds, and np boy molested them. After a time the birds will find that they are safer from hawks, nest-huntlng boys and other ene mies in the noisy city than they art In the secluded places they were wont to haunt, and then the city will be alive 'with feathered visitors of all sorts, which will add another charm to the residence sections. Even the despised sparrow makes himself useful in destroying . In sects oh rose bushes and other plants, if his notes are not eo musical as those. of other birds who lead a less strenuous ex istence. English-Chinese Cooks. Many Chi nese who have been for years in this country have made little progress in learning English. " They have not had time to go to school, and there have not been bookRgptten out by any Chinese Oldenfforf In English and Chinese and Chinese and English for their benefit At last this long-felt want has been sup plied. A Jap of Yeddo has published a large Chinese and English dictionary, and some society In New York has published a pocket dictionary of the same kind and a reader and speller with English words and phrases in one column and their1 equivalent in Chinese in another. Seid Back has secured a lot of these books Xor the benefit of his countrymen here, and hereafter Chinese employes in can neries and elsewhere will spend their leisure hours studying English. A China man who understood no English was look ing Over one of the readers yesterday, and the picture of a boy looking at a pig attracted his attention. He read the Chi nese words under It, and then, asked an ' American to read the corresponding line In English to see if they agreed. The English was, "I see a pig." The China man smiled and read, "Me see one hor." That settled It. and he wanted one of the books, and will soon be an English scholar. FranchTse Accepted. The Portland Traction Company has formally accepted the franchise for a line on Burnside street from First to .Fifth, recently granted them by the Council. In due time the company will probably transfer the fran chise to the Portland Railway Company, which has absorbed the franchises and property of the traction company. Con struction of the line cannot be com menced at once, as the franchise requires that the track shall be laid with seven inch rails, and theEe have to be ordered from the East. The city will require all street railways hereafter laid on Improved streets tOftoeiof seven-inch rails. There Is also a provision in the franchise intend ed to compel street railway companies to keep their portion of streets used by them in repair, which heretofore it has been impossible to do. This provision stipu lates that whenever a street railway com pany is notified to make necessary repairs to the portion of a street occupied by Its tracks, and falls to do so within 30 daye, the city may proceed to make such re pairs, and the cost thereof shall be a lien on the property of said company. All street railway franchises granted in fu ture "will contain a similar clause. Law School Examination. Thirteen members of the class of 1901, whose names are here ranged in order of merit, have satisfied the examiners and will be pre sented for graduation In June: 1, Charles McGinn. Jr.: 2, Minora Malta; 3. Ralph F, Barnes. Clarence B. Sew all, J. Leslie Wallace; 6, Charles D. Bronson; 7, James G. Wilson; 8, Philip Here; S, John Teu scher. Jr.; 10, P. Mark Weddell; 11. Wen dell D. Schutt; 12, Fred C. Dunham; 13, Yahnchl Inomata. In the trial examina tion of the class of 1932 the highest marks were awarded to Jacob B. Dfner. M. Otto Pickett and Paul S. Dick. The chair of pleading, rendered vacant by the death of John W. Whalley last November, has been offered to and accepted by the Hon. Henry H. Northup, of Portland. Recovering. Captain Tom Mountain was out yesterday for the first time In 16 days. May 14 he found some one in a coal bin which was under his charge, and on telling him that this was no time (about 6 A. M.) to be getting coal, the fellow, who proved to be a colored cook on a. steamer, threw a chunk of coal at him, striking him on the temple and coming within an ace of killing him. George Himes remembered Mr. Mountain yesterday and called around with his buggy and took him out for a drive. He is still very weak, but will soon be all right again. The cook was arrested, and will, have to answer for his murderous deed. Real Estate Sale. At the Courthouse. 10 A. M. today, lots 5. 6. 7.

The ties are in bad shape and many will have to be replaced. The rails, however, are not much worn, and -will do service for some time. No gen eral repairs have ever been made to the road since its completion, but the traffic over it never was very heavy. It Is the Intention of the Portland City & Oregon Railway Company, which -will operate the line, to put up Iron cfossarms for the trolley wire, which will require only sin gle poles along one side of the track. The crossarms have been distributed along the track. The steam motor is running a gravel train over the track, to the pit on the Foster road. The gravel is used to ballast the Oregon City and Haw thorne avenue lines. When the electric cars are put on the route they will be run In connection with the Hawthorne avenue branch,' which will give the people of Mount Scott much better service than they had under the agreement with the old East Side Railway Company. Cara will be running by July L One Day to Lewis nnd Clark. The G. A. R. post of Pleasant Home has nearly completed the list of speakers for its 13th annual reunion, which will be gin July 29. and close August L The State Agricultural College will send speakers, who will take up a day with lectures on dairying and agriculture. One day will be devoted to the "Lewis and Clark ex pedition." This will probablybe Satur day, August 3. Teachers Elected. The directors of the South Mount Tabor School have elected the following teachers for the next school jear: Principal, W. A. Law; assistants. Miss E. Strange, Miss H. Moore and Miss A. Davidson. Orient School closed Its work for the year last week, and the directors have elected as teachers for next year: Prin cipal, L. D. Miller, of Palestine; teachers, Miss New and Miss McCaVrow. Dangerous RoadVrny. The elevated roadway qn East Oak street, between Grand avenue and East Sixth, appears to be In a dangerous con dition. On the north side, t near East Sixth street, portions have settled over a foot. A section of sidewalk has sagged. There are some barricades at the inter section of East Sixth street, but the bar ricade at Grand avenue has been thrown down. East Side Notes. v T. A. Sbetterly and Fred G. Carlip, who were at Government Camp, Mount Hood, last week, found snow five feet deep on the road in many places. The Sellwood Sub-Board of Trad'et will meet this evening in the hall of the volun teer firemen. A delegation from1, the Eighth Ward will attend, to get points for the organisation of another board on East Twenty-first and Powell streets.1 Patriotic services -were" held at Centen ary Methodi3t Church last evening.

"And you shaved two customers before 7:30 o'clock," the delegate added. "I did, but I forgot about the rule," said Mr. Marsch. "Do you promise, then, that you will not violate the rules and regulations of the Journeymen's Union in the future 7" iuquired Wanner. r "I promise nothing," "was the reply. President Wanner then Introduced Sec retary Leabo, to remove the union card from Marsch's tvindow, and this was done. The nine barbers who were at work in the shop at the time were inter ested spectators of the proceedings, and they began to put on their coats. "Thai's right. All out," said President Wanner, and out the barbers marched, leaving only the proprietor, his porter and bootblack behind. In order to get Mr. Marsch's version of the matter, an Oregonlan reporter in terviewed him, and he said: "Two of my friends asked me last Wednesday if I would shaye them at 7 o'clock this Thursday morning, as- they were going op a boat excursion. I wished" to oblige my friends, and I shaved them at the time they asked. Tou would not want them to go. to the excursion with dirty faces? So, my men walked out. It's interfering with my business. But I'm not beaten. I can fill their places with others, and if I can't keep a place where I can cut hair for 25 cents, I'll have a place where I can do it for 15 cents. I'm sorry it has. happened, but It's Up to me." Immediately after Marsch's barbers walked out word of the situation was telephoned to Sampson H.Howard, presi dent of the State Barbers' Commission, and according to President Wanner Howard used his efforts visiting barbers along Third street and Whltechapel generally, trying to get nonunion barbers to fill the places vacated by Marsch's men. In one Instance a nonunion man was of fered $1 50 per hour, but not one recruit could be obtained, and the bosses' mes sengers reported no progress. Quite a rush of customers called at Marsch's place and he was kept busy try ing to shave and cut the hair of all who called, but a number of patrons left when they learned that their favorite barbers were missing. At noon, the shop was closed, as the rules of the union require all union shops to close at Vioon on holi days. - To get the employes' side of" the story a reporter interviewed President Wanner. "Mr. Marsch opened his shop on Tuesday and Wednesday mornings at 7 o'clock, but he got no customers," said Mr. Wanner. "However, when he, opened this (Thurs day) morning, half an, hour earlier than the union rules permit, and. shayed cus tomers, we considered it was time to force the Jssue.- The union card displayed in a shop window means that the shop is gov erned by union ' rules, and when these rules are not obeyed It is time to remove the card. This Js what we have done in Marsch's case. I have no personal feel ing in the matter, but am simply obeying the instructions of the union I represent. I am sorry there la any unpleasantness, but we mean to fight for the principle of starting to work at 7:30' A. M. and no Sunday labor. All union men will help us toward that end. I hear that overtures have been made by Marsch's friends toward a compromise, and when such a course Is officially brought before us, it will receive every consideration." Last night a meeting 'of the union was held, when it is understood negotiations were begun to get Marsch's barbers back to work today. The officers said that nothing definite had been accomplished. The outlook at Marsch's today will "be awaited with Interest, as his friends say he can supply the barbers' places, and the union men say that they will persuade all barbers not to interfere in the dispute. The constitutionality of the barbers' Sunday closing law is to be tested in the courts. The question Is to be raised by H. H. Horthrup, a barber, of Upper Al bina; but it is probable that others inter ested in keeping open on Sunday are back of the move. Northrup was arrested on May 12 for keeping his shop open, and it fs well known that he violated the law.t He was released on bonds, and his attorneys have hied habeas corpus proceedings in the State Clrcuic Court, and the case will come up before Judge Sears this morn ing. The petition Is drawn up in the usual form, and sets forth that Northrup is unlawfully reptrained of his liberty; I that the restraint is unwarranted because the act referred to is unconstitutional, Imperative and void. The contention will be that the law is unconstitutional for the reason that it applies on.ly to one calling while there is no general Sunday closing law In Oregon. The Journeymen Barbers' Union desldes the law to stand, and so do the majority of the bosses. The case will probably be appealed to the Supreme Court, no matter what the decision of the lower court may be. representative on the board of directors of the Portland Board or Trade, ana M. Billings was elected. A verbal report was made on the opening of Union avenue from Alberta street to Dekum avenuer to the effect that the committee was, making satisfactory progress; the committee was given fur ther time. There was wide discussion, and the consensus of opinion was that Union avenue should be widenea to at least 70 feet, and then improved. J. B. Easter, who with others went to Vancouver Wednesday night to attend a public meeting at that place reported. "We went, 10 of us, to Vancouver, and we located the site of the Lewis and Clark Centennial on the Peninsula at University Park. It Is the unanimous opinion of the Vancouver people that the exposition should be heldat University Park, so that it shall at least be within sight of the great river Lewis and Clark were sent out to explore. I Want to say that in my opinion "Washington will have much to do with the location of the fair. There Is no doubt that it will favor the site we favor. We were well treated and were glad that we made the visit." George P. Lent said that action of Van couver will haVe great weight. Hereto fore, he said, he had thought that Sell wood had the best chance, but the action of the Vancouver meeting will offset the Sellwood boom. Other speakers spoke on the same line. They commended Sell wood for the enterprise, activity and plUck, but are not ready to concede the exposition to her. Secretary J. B. Easter and M. Bill ings were appointed a special com mittee to draft resolutions indorsing University Park as the best place for holding the exposition of 1905. It was urged that every effort be put forth to increase the membership of the board, and to encourage and support the effort to start a sub-board In Multnomah addition. COWBOYS TURN MINERS.

A party of 34 Oklahoma cowboys stopped over in Portland yesterday on their way to Eagle City, Alaska. They were mem bers of a corporation entitled the Eagle City .Mining & Development Company, and were going Up to operate a placer mine, which had previously been -worked by their leader, WILlI4m Mulligan,, who is now president of the company. The young men had become members of the corpora tion, they said, by each having paid $600 to Mulligan, and this sum entitled them to passage to their destination. Eagle City is on the American side, not far from the eastern boundary of Alaska. Coarse gold Is said to bo abundant in the pay gravel, which formed a bank six feet deep, on the sides of Mission Creek. The boys all were figuring on ?25 per day to the man, and are going north with the firm resolve to stay until they get rich. Bach member of the party bore a badge with, the word ''Yukon," and some of them also wore a ribbon on the lapel of the coat, upon which a verse from the Scriptures had been typewritten by their pastor back in Oklahoma. They were all used to roughing It after cattle, they said, and so had no misgivings Jn regard to spending the Winter in the Arctic. They are bringing a monitor and set of hy draulic pipes with them, to set up on the banks of Mission Creek. Their route lies by Skagway and down the Yukon. . merits of thouarht and composition are also to be considered, and the contestant scoring the highest in the combined sub jects w'ns the medal. The decision of the judgeo on thought and composition is not yet complete. The i returns of two Judges, Professor Morris, of Taooma, and Professor Fetter, of Stanford University, however, gave Min chin decidedly the advantage in this pact of the contest. In fact, at the present time he is one point ahead of Hauerbach in the total number of points, with the probability that If he scores In the ime relative proportion 1n the marking of the Judge yet to be heard from,. Professor Martin C. Flaherty, of the University of California, he will win. out in the con test.

Falling, who has about five acres of strawberries on his place In the eastern part of the city, takes an interest in the question of using new boxes, or' old ones for marketing berries in. He does not consider Mr. Buckman's idea of scalding the boxes every time they ate used as practicable, and thinks it would be much better to get cheap boxes, which will last till the berries reach the consumer. anai let that .be the last of them. After the boxes are delivered to the dealer and go tb his customers there is always both er and delay In getting them back, and manj of them are never returned, and many that are returned are in such a con ditio that scalding will not save them. Mr. Falling's idea is to procure th.e ve neers cut into shape ior boxes and packed in bulk, and then to make them up at odd times, in the Winter, or any time convenient. In this way the boxes ought to cost only a trifle and there would be no necessity for using them a second time. He is In correspondence with sev eral maiiufacturers of boxes In different p'aces li regard to procuring the box cneers fii bulk, and hopes to be able to carry out his scheme so that he need use no boxes a second time.
