Unnamed Reptiles. Thomas Hamilton,
who has been digging a tunnel into a
copper mine at Copper City, on Copper
Creek, was at the City Hall with two
Subterranean reptiles In a jar of water,
which he was anxious to present to Col
onel Hawkins and to learn -their scientific
and common names. The specimens are a
couple of writhing, squirming worms, each
18 inches In length, and the size of sew
ing thread. They are white and were
found some six feet under ground In a
small stream running out of the tunnel.
The water, Mr. Hamilton says, Is Impreg
nated with arsenic The worms when
placed in the sun, straightened themselves
out, but any noise or disturbance causes
them to coll up Into a snarl. It was sug
gested that they might be what the boys
call hair snakes or hair eels, but this was
considered doubtful, because, everybody
knows, such snakes are only horse hairs
which have changed to living creatures,
and horse hairs could not have got so
far under ground. In explaining where
Copper City is, Mr. Hamilton said it was
eight miles from Dole, which Is 10 miles
from Eureka, and by taking a logging
railroad at Eureka, one can come to Van
couver, "Wash. He will put the specimens
out to board until Colonel Hawkins re
turns. No Regatta Qceen Selected. The
Portland committee of the Astoria re
gatta held a business meeting last even
ing at the office of Admiral E. S. Edwards.
Preparations are progressing favorably for
the regatta, which Is to be held August
9, SO, 3L C. J. Owen was elected treas
urer of the committee, but the queen of
the regatta has not yet been selected. Ar
rangements are being made to secure the
steamer Harvest Queen to take the Port
land party to Astoria the day before the
opening of the regatta. The queen and
retinue, with the committee and prominent
officials, will comprise the steamer party,
which will probably number 300. A big
time is anticipated as the dates have
been selected with an eye to thB weather.
Firb Caught From Benzine. A lively
fire in the rear of 4SS Columbia street
yesterday forenoon threatened the whole
block Of dwplUnirn fnr esvoral mlmitoo
until the department arrived. A. A. Lam
bert, who uses the premises as a dye
house, was cleaning clothing with ben
zine, when he stepped on a matoh that
had dropped to the floor. In an instant
the shed was In flames and his clothing
was on Are, but a quick plunge Into a tub
of water saved him, while the flames pro
ceeded to devour the buildings. Besides
a $500 loss to Lambert, the dwellings of
Charles Holman, B. F. Clayton and S. P.
Lee, fronting on Clay street, were badly
scorched. Lambert had no Insurance.
Too Many Salmon. There are now only
10 canneries on the Columbia, or with one
at the Cascades, 11, where there used to
be 30, so it is no wonder that, with a run
of salmon like that now making Its way
up the river, all the canneries are blocked.
Some of the fish are to be helped up the
river, as Warren's Cannery, at the Cas
cades, is to be started up and some of
the surplus flsh at Astoria are to be sent
there by rail to be canned. The fishermen
have been praying for flsh all the season,
and now their prayers are being answered
In a sort of reckless manner, and they are
not feeling so thankful as they ought.
A Friend op Oregon. Hoyt Sherman,

strengthened his affection.
j Fine Lambert Cherries. Chauncey
.Ball, who lives at the Intersection of
JWIberg's Lane and the Montavilla car
line, brought to The Oregonlan office yes
terday some Lambert cherries which he
regards the finest ever produced in Mult
nomah County. They were picked from
,a limb budded three years ago. The
rich mahogany color, the large size, the
perfect form and above all, the delicious
'flavor of the Lambert cherry combine to
make it a favorite in a country famous for
cherries.

Children Not Wanted. Newly arrived
families In which there are small children,
find difficulty In obtaining furnished or
housekeeping rooms In Portland, as land
ladles object to romping in the halls, to
say nothing of the extra wear and tear of
furniture, carpets and -walls. A man and
wife traveled .about town for three days
this week seeking rooms, but found them
not. The rooms were to let in moderate
supply, and as the couple looked respec
table and agreeable, they were 'promptly
shown about the premises, told of the
fine view, the desirable location, the mod
erate price, etc When the landlady was
Informed that the apartment-seekers had
four little girls and a dog, anger fre
quently took the place of civility and they
were shown the door. The couple finally
secured quarters from a landlady who had
known the wife In her schooldays, or they
might yet be looking for housekeeping
roms.
Enjoined From Using Fraudulent

the manufacture or sale of beer, or the
manufacture or sale of labels, of the word
Schlitz, and from making use of a quad
rangular label with a terra cotta back
ground, and the word Schlitz in fancy
white characteristic script letters thereon,
or from doing anything else to Induce the
belief that the beer made by or for Schultz
et al. Is the beer of or made by the Joseph
Schlitz Brewing Company. It was also
ordered that complainants recover their
costs and disbursements.
Fences Across the Line. United
States District Attorney J. H. Hall has
been notified by Jesse D. Carr's counsel
here that he is tearing down his fences
around the Government land In Oregon,
which he has had inclosed for so many
years, but he Intends to maintain his
fences around the SO.OOO acres lying in
California and continue his struggle to
retain possession of It. As Judge Bel
linger's decision applies to the lands In
California as well as In Oregon, a United
States Deputy Marshal Is to be sent from
here to tear down the fences around Carr's
California "holdings." It is now up to
the United States Court and officials here
to see whether Mr. Carr will rebuild the
fences again. The Deputy Marshal who
tears down Mr Carr's California fences is
likely to have an all Summer's job.
Glasses in Court. John Whyte was
before Municipal Judge Cameron yester
day, charged with using abusive lan
guage to Robert Allen, when he tried to
sell a pair of alleged gold spectacles
for 51 50. The police produced the specta
cles In court and Whyte remarked: "They
are for far-sighted people. The glasses
magnify objects a long way off." Judge
Cameron, Deputy City Attorney Davis
and several policemen wore the glasses In
court, and each declared that the glass
was plain glass and did not magnify at
all. "I thought you were far-seeing men,"
sneerlngly remarked the defendant. "We
are sharp enough to see through you,
any way. Try 10 days In jail," said
Judge Cameron.

NO ONE WAS TO BLAME
CORONER'S INQUEST OVER MAN
WHO SUFFOCATED.
Evidence That Frltx Pflnger Was
Stupefied by Liquor, Else He
Could Have Escaped.
Both the police and the Coroner made
an Investigation yesterday into the cir
cumstances connected with the fire which
broke out last Wednesday nigh at E.
Wolf's store, 231 Burnside street, and
caused one of the upstairs roomers, Fred
crick Kreider, otherwise known as Fritz
Pfluger, to be suffocated. But no clew
was obtained as to the origin of the fire,
and no responsibility was fixed for the
unfortunate man's death.
Several witnesses at the Inquest agreed
that Kreider was a heavy drinker, that
he was under the influence of liquor when
he retired to his room, shortly before the
fire started, and that had he been sober
he would undoubtedly have heard the
noise made by police, firemen and citizens
In awakening the other roomers, and
could have effected his escape.
v Ernest Francis, the night watchman at
the Burnside lodging-house, which Is over
Wolf's store, testified that he knew the
dead man as Fritz, but understood his
correct name was Frederick Kreider. The
latter was a German, 41 years jld, and
unmarried. Witness tried to get all the
roomers out of their rooms, and he re
membered locking doors to prevent the
water from the hose of the Fire Depart
ment spoiling the furniture in the rooms.
'.'You are sure you did not lock room
No. 11, the room where Kreider was
asleep?" asked the Coroner.
"I didn't lock that room I locked only
three or four rooms In all," returned the
witness. "I helped afterward to break
open the door of the room where Kreider
lay, and the place was filled with smoke.
Kreider lay In bed, and the bedclothes
were over his face. There was a sheet
over his head. I lifted him by the legs,
and his head fell on the floor, but It
came In contact with the bedclothes. I do
not think the fact of Jiis head falling on
the floor caused his death. He usually
saw me every night before he went to
bed, but Wednesday night he was so
full that he went to his room as goon as
he came home."
Special Officer Hoare testified that he
knew Kreider, and the latter had been
arrested five times for Intoxication when
the witness was captain of police. When
the body was found, first .aid to the ap
parently suffocated was rendered, but the
man was already dead.
Policemen Gibson and Bailey both testi
fied that they did not know the origin
of the fire In Wolf's store, and that the
firemen did everything possible In their
endeavor to save life and property. The
witnesses both assisted roomers to es
cape from fire and smoke.
J. P. McEntee testified that he is the
proprietor of the Burnside lodging-house,
and was about to retire for the night
when the fire broke out. Witness dressed,
and with the aid of police, firemen and
citizens got, as he then supposed, all the
roomers awakened. Some roomers started
to take away their trunks, but at this
point the smoke was so denso that wit
ness was obliged to go outside to breathe.
On returning, he saw that Kreider's room
was still locked, and found It was locked
from the Inside. Witness assisted in
breaking down the door and a column of
heavy smoke poured out. There is no
window in the room, but there is a glass
folding door leading to a room fronting
on Burnside street. Witness sent for Dr.
Buck and everything possible was done
to restore Kreider.
"Did firemen and police exercise due
care In 'awakening the roomers and sav
ing life?" asked the Coroner.
"Yes, sir' replied the witness. "I must
compliment both police and firemen for
their good work. They did all men could
do."
"On whom, In your opinion, falls the
responsibility for this man's death?" went
on the Coroner.
"I do not think that any one Is respon
sible," returned McEntee. "If he had
been sober he would have heard the
noise we made in awakening the roomers.
Kreider was a quiet man, and when he
came home drunk, he went to his room
and gave nobody any bother. I rent the
store to Mrs. Wolf, but I don't know any
thing about the origin of the fire."
Dr. Lewis Buck testified that Kreider
came to his death by suffocation caused
by smoke. Kreider was dead when wit
ness arrived.
The jury decided that fire from a cause
unknown to the jury broke out on the
lower floor in Wolf's store, and that Krei
der came to his death by suffocation from
smoke.
DOUBLED IN TWO YEARS.
Rep.orts From Retail Clerks' Inter
national Association.
E. C. Gunther, -with Dresser & Co., who
left here July 2 as a delegate to the Retail
Clerks International Protective Associa
tion, arrived home yesterday. The asso
ciation met at Buffalo, and was in session
five days. Every state in the Union was
represented, and there were 217 delegates
in attendance.
The meeting was a very enthusiastic,
one, the membership having doubled
within th,e past two years. Reports from
all sections of the country show that the
object for which the association was or
ganizedto secure early closing and holi.

the entire country, and tho business firms
in many places supporting the movement.
Max Morris, of Denver, was elected sec

Mr. Gunther visited the exposition and
called on Commissioner Dosch at the Ore
gon exhibit and heard the same complaint
about tho scarcity of Oregon fruit there,
and was requested to use every effort to
have supplies forwarded. He was glad
to get back to Oregon and comfortable
weather. He went as far south as St.
Louis, but suffered so from the heat that
he cut his schedule of visits short and
started for home at once.
MARKETS AT 5 A. M.
Big; Vegetable Business Every Day
Near the PInxa Blocks.
People who arise by 5 o'clock these
mornings can witness a lively scene along
Third street, between Salmon and Madi
son, if they will take the trouble. The
street Is crowded with vegetable wagons
Just In from the suburbs, and the din
of trade keeps near-by residents awake
unless they have become used to It. The
placard, "No wagons allowed In front of
these premises," is seen occasionally, and
the Inference Is that the occupants of
such houses do not fully enjoy the racket
of Italian and Chinese trading, so early
In the motnlng. The plaza blocks on one
side, however, prevent any one being dis
turbed on the west, and the wagons crowd
up Main street, around the Thompson
fountain, without annoying the Court
house officials at that time qf day. By 7
o'clock the vegetables and berries are all
disposed of, and beyond the litter of cab
bage leaves and odd turnips, very little
sign of the morning bustle Is noticed by
those who frequent the plaza during tho
day. '
The residents along Third street com
plain more of the flies drawn toward that
portion of the city by the litter than they
do about the noise. The wagons leave
early in the morning, they admit, but the
flies stay about the premises all day.
Some of these people think the vegetable
men should assemble on Park street, near
the Park School, but the people of that
locality might find the same objections as
the Third-street residents.
The garden truck-raisers had their head
quarters on Second street, near Salmon,
for a number of years, Taut the lodgers
near by became tired of such a rush of
business so early in the morning, and a
few weeks ago the police notified the
Italians to "move on." How long the
present murmurlngs along Third street
may simply spend themselves on empty
air is problematical, but the Indications
are that the attention of the police may
be called to the matter before many
months. Then "Where shall wo go?" will
be the question asked of the patrolmen
In broken English. The square upon
which the old Mechanics' Pavilion stands
was dedicated to tho city for the purpose
of a market garden, but the erection of
the building prevented the gardeners from
using it.
Housewives who buy their vegetables
from Chinese peddlers are Inclined to
think the Celestial sits up all night to
raise them, but the produce Is mostly
grown by Italian gardeners, whose
patches are from four to ten miles dis
tant from the center of the city. A few
Chinese patches of green stuff may be
seen from the elevated roadways about
tho suburbs, but the amount grown on
these bears a very small proportion to
the quantity consumed by a city of 100,-
000 people. The wily Chinese make as
good bargains as they can m purchasing
from the Italians, while the city folks
are still sleeping soundly, and then the
barter with the consumer begins. How
much profit the Mongolian makes can only
be conjectured, as he keeps his business
strictly to himself.

New York Evening Sun.
The Little Boy had been trying to go
Into vaudeville, with 111 success, and he
was obviously In a fault-finding humor
as he sat under the haycock with Bo
Peep.
"I fall to see the reason why you se
cure such widespread advertisement," he
exclamied, pettishly.
"Especially." retorted 2o Peep, "when
you are so vigorously blowing your own
"You neglect your charges shamefully.
1 believe even now they are lost," he
pursued.
"Oh, they'll all come home, like your
press agents, bringing their tales behind
them," returned Bo Peep, airily.
Hereupon the Little Boy looked rather
sheepish for an instant. "Your long-continued
association with crooks is cor
rupting your morals and manners," he
cried, recovering himself.
At this Bo Peep blushed, but made no
reply. Perhaps, after all, it was jealousy
that made the Little Boy Blue.

Two Physicians Both Agree on the
Jfew Scientific Dnndrnff Treatment.
Dr. J. M. Powell, of Spokane, Wash.,
says: "Herplclde has given good satis
faction In my family for dandruff."
Dr. "W. G. Alban of Walla Walla,
Wash., eays: "I find Herplclde all that Is
claimed for It as a dandruff cure. I shall
prescribe It." Dandruff Is a germ dis
ease, and you can't cure It unless you kill
the dandruff germ; and you can't do that
unless you use TJewbro's Herplclde, the
only preparation In the world that de
stroys the parasites. A delightful hair
dressing; allays Itching Instantly; makes
hair glossy and soft as silk. It Is a sure
dandruff destroyer.

sue not Intended for five cent cigar smokers They appeal
to smokers of Havana goods accustomed to pay SO cents
or two for 25 cents to get character in flavor. They are
adopting it wherever on sale and will walk blocks to get
it. Dealers who keep them draw from the 10 cent trade
of other stores. They have all the richness of choice Ha
vana. Though not quite the same in flavor, they are very
similar and more pleasing to many, because less strong ana
sickening and because any number can be smoked with,
much relish. Mr. Smoker a trial will
