The thorns of the rose bushes this year seem to be unusually poisonous, even dangerously bo, to judge from the experience certain Oregonians are having just now. Mrs. P. J. Mann a few days ago was at the point of death from what appeared to be blood, poisoning brought on by a slight scratch from some rose thorns. A day or two after the bruise was received she was taken violently ill, and for a brief time ' her life was almost despaired of; but for tunately the poison produced an abscess under the arm, which could be lanced, and in this way relief was given. She is now on the road to recovery. Mrs. M. V. Allen Is also carrying her arm In a sling, owing to the same cause, and it is re ported also that the wife of a physician in Salem nearly died as a result of rose poisoning. The bushes seem to be af flicted this year with a more than usually severe form of the disease called rust, owing to the peculiar Spring weather we have been having, and to this Is at tributed the trouble. Delinquent School taxes. An ab stract of delinquent school taxes has just been completed for the School Board. Only taxes which are considered good and recoverable have been listed, and they amount in the aggregate to some thing over $20,000. The largest part of this amount consists of taxes on mort gages assessed from 1888 to 1892. Assess ments on merchandise and personal prop erty have been omitted, as very few of those assessed are in business now. Just what action will be taken In reference to the collection of these taxes has not been definitely decided, but every oppor tunity will be given for property owners to clear the title to their property before legal proceedings are Instituted and costs added. The School Board has power to eell the delinquent property and at the end of two yeara to give the purchaser a deed to It. Druo Stores as Saloons. A visitor from Maine was Interviewed at the Ter minal depot yesterday, and, on being asked about what feature he had specially noticed in Portland, he said: "I'm from Maine, Jim Blaine's state, and I'm not a Prohibitionist, either. The point I want to make Is this: Portland must be a sin gularly healthy city, for in the course of my walks through your streets, I no ticed there are very few drug stores Jiere, in proportion to the population. Now Maine is every bit as healthy as Oregon, and Portland in particular, but we have lots and lots of drug stores in Maine. I think the true explanation is that when a Portland man wants a drink he goes to a saloon, but when a man in Maine "wants a drink he goes to a drug store. And yet, ncople say Maine must be un healthy, because we have so many drug etores there." "Vert Young; Vandals. On complaint of J. R. XSIlstrap and C. F. Spauldlng, District Attorney Chamberlain yesterday filed a petition In the County Court ask ing for the arrest of Gnno Vandeemeer, 7 years old, Peter Vandeemeer, aged 10 years, and John Evanavlch. 12 years old, and that they be examined for commit ment , to the Reform School. The boys live at Woodstock and, the complainants aver, are beyond the control of their parents. The charge is made that they are turbulent and vicious and have broken the windows In four buildings, torn -down a flag and carried away the guard rope and also attempted to derail an electric car. Most of their depredations are said to have been committed after 9 o'clock at night, In conclusion It is stated that they are a terror to the community. Backed Out of a Sale. The payment of the last dividend to persons holding claims against the Portland Savings Bank has been delayed, on account of the action of New York parties, who bought the lands in Klamath County which form a part of the assets of the bank. They made a deposit of $500 to bind the sale and now tljey decline to take the lands and want their deposit returned. Receiver Nixon will not refund the money unless the court orders him to do bo. He has other men examining the lands in question, and feels certain of making a sale, and expects to be ready to declare a final divifiend by the 20th of this month. Farewell Prohibition Speech. Rev.

There Is lots of money In the banana business as a gen eral thing, but banana dealers have their troubles as well as other people. A few days ago a carload of Bluefields bananas arrived here In a very thoroughly cooked condition, and the lot was sold for $200 less than the freight thereon. The con signee had to lose the freight, but the shipper will be out the value of the bananas. The trouble was caused by the car passing through a state In the hot belt while the late hot wave was waving. Refused Reward. Mrs. M. G. Myers, of 269 Fourteenth street, lost on Monday evening her purse, containing $15 in gold, and she advertised her loss In Tuesday's Oregonlan.

Standley, of the Manual Train ing: School Resents a "Jolte." W. J. Standley, the big-hearted manager of the Boys' Manual Training School, has an inherent love for the boys under his charge, and lie never permits them to be Imposed on. Last Thursday he was marching up Morrison street at the head of his drum corps, after the party had taken part In the parade, when they came In front of an ice cream stand. Sev eral young men came out and halted the boys and told them if they would play a tune they should all be treated to ice cream. The boys complied with the re quest and gave several tunes, but re ceived no ice cream. Mr. Standley went inside and wanted to know when the Ice cream would be served, but no one seemed to know. This caused the superintendent's right eous indignation. He found that two of the young men who bad made the offer had left, but on looking around he found one hid under the counter and behind the skirts of two young women. Mr. Standley had him out in short order, and de manded the ice cream for his boys, ac cording to promise. The young fellow stammered out that It was a joke, but that would not go with the big superin tendent. He told the young man the treat had to come, that the boys had performed their part and he had to do the same. The young man temporized and finally said they would have to go to another stand. They moved off a short distance, when he frankly said he had no money. He was told that he would then have to apologize to the boys for his "joke." He agreed to do this, but not until his invi tation to "scrap" was accepted by the superintendent altogether too promptly. The superintendent then put the motion whether they would accept the apology, "but they voted "no" unanimously. The boys finally marched away leaving the young man very much humiliated over the outcome of his little Jolte. MAZAMAS' ADVANCE GUARD "Will Steel and Party Leave This Morning: for Blount "Hood.

United States Court Intervenes to Protect the Rights of Cattlemen in Klamath County. The Jesse D, Carr Land & Livestock Company, a California corporation, was defendant in the United States Circuit Court yesterday, charged with unlawfully enclosing 84,333 acres of Government lands In Oregon and California. A number of stockmen from Klamath County were witnesses on behalf of the plaintiff. A map that had been gotten up by United States District Attorney Hall showed that the fence Is of very Irregular shape and enclosed portions of 10 townships, part of the tract being taken up by Clear Lake. The witnesses testified that the fence is formed of posts and barbed wire, except where the rimrock enabled the builders to substitute natural barriers, and stones. Gates, they said, were placed across the county roads In certain places, and peo ple were prevented from going into the enclosure except at such gates as were erected. Stock not owned by the corpora tion was ordered out by Mr. Carr, as "he expected to control the enclosure." The attorneys for the defense, Messrs. Moreland and Coggswell, offered no evi dence in rebuttal, but depended on legal points. In their cross-examination of the witnesses they demanded how the affi ants knew this fence was built and main tained by the defendants. As the witnesses could only testify from hearsay and a general understanding as to the ownership of the fence, they could only testify ac cordingly. Mr. Coggswell was called to the stand by Mr. Hall to testify as to what he personally knew of the matter, and he denied any positive knowledge of what the Jesse D. Carr Land & Livestock Company had been Incorporated for, not having read the articles of incorporation. He admitted, however, that "several spas modic attempts had been made to move the fence within the past 15 years." Judge Bellinger said It was a shame to enclose public lands in the manner testi fied to by the various witnesses, and un less the counsel for the defense had evi dence or arguments to offer, he would decide the matter with as little delav ab possible, as ho thought It was a case that should have" precedence over other classes of suits. Judge Moreland, how ever, contended that Judge Bellinger has no jurisdiction over that portion of the enclosure south of the Oregon line, and cited His Honor to certain statutes. The arguments will be concluded today and the case will be decided within a week, according to Judge Bellinger's closing re marks. Some of the witnesses left last evening for their homes in Southern Ore gon and others will go today. The com plaint in the matter was filed March 30, 1900. The case is a suit in equity to com pel the corporation to remove the fence. GETS HER OWN LAND. Indian Woman Wins a Victory in. the United States Court. Phillomme Smith, a full-blood Indian woman of the Umatilla reservation, who had married a white man, was awarded a decision by Judge Bellinger yesterday in her suit against a male Indian for the possession of an allotment of land. She had made a selection of the land before the date of allotment, her husband as sisting In the enclosing and cultivating of the tract, and In constructing buildings thereon to the value of $700. Her name was omitted in the tribal census sent to Washington by the Commissioner, so the Commissioner of Indian Affairs refused to recognize her right. A subsequent cen sus Included her name and the decision was reversed in her favor. An Indian, He-yu-tse-mll-kln, had taken up the land In the meantime, and so Mrs. Smith was given an inferior tract. Judge Bellinger did not think she should have been compelled to give up her original selection, with Its $700 worth of improve ments, and said: "If she was entitled to allotment, she was entitled to her original tract." Court Notea. The inventory of the estate of Jacob Johnson, deceased, was filed. The ap praised value of the property Is $13,3S9. The will of Rosa Bluhm, deceased, was admitted to probate yesterday. The prop erty is valued at $500, and Is devised to Henry and Emma Wingert P. M. Daly was appointed administrator of the estate of Nelly Gray, deceased, val ued at $350. John H. Mitchell, executor of the will of John B. Price, deceased, yesterday filed a report in the County Court for the year ending June 20. showing $3483 receipts. There was a partial distribution among the heirs, and there remains $1954 on hand for further distribution. The report of the trust estate of George N. Price shows $5480 on hand. Yung You Toy, a Chinaman, was ex amined by United States Commissioner Sladen yesterday in regard to his right to stay in the United States. Toy was arrested several weeks ago, because his certificate of registration was not con sidered satisfactory to the Government, the description in his papers failing to tally with the facts in the case. Com missioner Sladen will decide the case to day, and it will then go before Judge Bellinger. Yung You Toy is at liberty on $500 cash bail: FROM BOER POINT OF VIEW Commandant Krige "Wants Indepen dence or Death. Commandant Jan Krige, an escaped Boer prisoner of war, who is six feet tall and weighs about 200 pounds, arrived in this city yesterday from California, and purposes to spend a week in Portland on his return trip East. He states that he has' been giving lectures on the Boer War In different cities in this country dur ing the past six months. "I am here in Oregon to study your sys tem of farming, of which I have heard a great deal, to study agricultural ma chinery, and to get acquainted with the Oregon climate," he declared. "I do not know whether I shall lecture in Portland or not. I have with me a letter of, 'In troduction from Charles D. Pierce, Consul General of the Orange Free State, with offices in New York City. I have been in the Boer Army since war was declared against Great Britain. I served as an officer on the staff d? General Botha. On May 30, 1900, I was taken prisoner by the British At the battle of Klip River, and 13 days afterward I escaped and made my way back to General Botha, but as I had lost my horse and arms in the inter val, I was directed to go to Lourenco Mar quez to await instructions. "The Portuguese authorities prevented me and my comrades from returning to join the Boer Army, and I took passage on a German vessel to Holland. From there I took steamer to the United States, where I will stay until matters are set tled one way or another In the Transvaal. What are we to do now In the Trans vaal? Go on fighting until we get indepen dence or death. We have lost nearly ev erything anyway. Our homes have been burned by the British, and 63,000 Boer women and children are kept prisoners In British camps. Our women have been out raged." "Did you ever personally see Boer women outraged?" he was asked. "No, I cannot say that I have, but I have met Boer women who have told me that they had suffered at the hands of British soldiers. I despise the eye glass brigade of British officers sent out to fight us, but I admire the rank and file of the British soldiers, who I believe sympathize with us. Wo have' taught the .British Army a thing or two we have taught the British how to shoot under cover and how to ride. Our salvation will eventually 'come from the British voters. They will tell Chamberlain in a short time that too much money has been wrung from them in the shape of taxes, and that the unjust war must cease. We have about 12,000 Boers in the field, op posed to about 269,000 British." Krige is dressed in the plain military garb of the Boer officer, and, with his swagger felt hat and 3talwart proportions, he is a striking figure. He speaks Eng lish fluently. YEARLY MORE POPULAR. "La Excellencla" and "Schiller" Ci gars Manufactured by E. Schiller. It Is a good cigar whose popularity lasts five years. It's a mighty good one which is still a favorite after ten years. But there are two cigars manufactured In this city which for thirteen years have enjoyed a constantly Increasing popularity, and which are today more In demand than ever before. Reference is made to "La Excellencla" and "Schiller," manufactured by E. Schiller at Fourth and Washington streets. Few people passing that busy corner realize what a steady, active hive of Industry the Schil ler establishment is. And, by the way, visitors who wish to Inspect it are always welcome. Thirty-five people are on the payroll. Over $500 Is paid out weekly In wages. During the past six m months over half a million cigars have been turned out, and still the factory is un able to meet the call for them. "La Ex cellencla" is a high grade clear Havana with Havana wrapper, in 5-inch length, pcrfecto shape, strictly hand-made, Cuban style. The "Schiller" Is made In three sizes, same shape, with Sumatra wrap per. It Is also a clear, high grade Ha vana. The wholp secret of the long-continue J and Increasing popularity of "La Excel lencla" and "Schiller" lies In the high quality and good workmanship put Into the goods. Very few domestic cigars en joy a long life, and the fact that both "La Excellencla" and "Schiller" are in such demand today, after theso many years, speaks volumes as to their excel lence and high quality. Mr. Schiller, in the successful outcome of his business for thirteen years past, has established one fact, and that very emphatically, namely: that with good workmanship and superior manufacturing stock a Portland home-made cigar can hold its own, as an established favorite, longer and more se curely than any other American cigar ever brought here.
