Rockwell, who is visiting in Ger mantown, Pa., writes to a Portland friend under date of December 6: "I am greatly in love with historic old Germantown. 1 am almost opposite St. Luke's Cathedral, of which Bishop Morris- was once the rec tor ana which celebrated its ninetieth anniversary last Saturduy. The organ is a very fine one, and the service was most beautiful and impressive. I am visiting within a block of the house where George "Washington lived, and the old "United States Treasury building of his day. 1 hae seen parts of the old earthworks upon which my husband, as engineer offi cer, was engaged while the battle of Get tysburg was raging, and I never tire of the quaint old colonial houses; and It seems a pity they should not all be pre served. The Daughters of the Revolution have purchased the house where Betsy Ross made our flag and herself immortal." Jcst a Stmptom op Snow. Yesterday's flurry of enow was considerably overdue, compared with previous years.

Protest Against Sewer Assessment. At a meeting of the committee on sewers and drainage yesterday the protest of Abrams & Knox against their 510.000 as sessment for the cost of the Beech-street sewer came up for consideration.

Sevoral protests against assess ments for the same eewer were presented by small property-owners, all of which were placed on file, as there appeared to be i.o just grounds for the protests. Peti tions for sewers on East Twenty-second street and Mississippi avenue were grant ed and the City Engineer was instructed to prepare plans and specifications for them. Krost and Raspberries. E. E. Crim mln, of Montavilla, who has a four-acre patch of raspberry bushes, is likely to havo his late crop of berries damaged by the frost He has sent The Oregonlan a large "bouquet" of boughs from these bushes, loaded with berries In every stage of growth up to dead-ripe, but if the frost continues he will not be able to har vest much of the crop. A number of box es of rather nice-looking raspberries, per fectly ripe, were in the market a few days ago, and commanded a round price; but they were probably the last of the season, as frost is not a good thing to ripen ber ries.

The rumpus In the postofiice at Manila, which resulted in the retirement of L. M. Shel laberger, has attracted much attention, and been made the subject of considerable comment here, as both Mr. Cotterman and Mr. Shcllaberger are well known. It ap pears, however, that the true lnwardnes3 of the trouble has not been given out here, it is an old-established idea of some people that there Is always a wo man at the bottom of all the trouble in this -world, and in this case this idea seems to be borne out A person who is in a position to know states that all the trouble In the Manila postofiice was the result of something written by Mrr. Shel laberger. She was a society reporter on the Manila American, and as such was present at a banquet or some swell so ciety function, and for some reason took occasion to "roast" some of the distin guished parties present, military officers and others of the elite of the city. Conse quently Mr. Shellagerger is out. Mr. Himes Returns. George H. Hlmes, assistant secretary of the Oregon Histori cal Society, has returned from an extend ed trip East He was gone nine weeks, and traveled a thousand miles each week, visiting 22 states and inspecting the work ings of a number of the principal histor ical societies, among them the Maine, Massachusetts, New York, Pennsylvania.

He distributed a large num ber of Handbooks of Oregon among people who wero Inquiring about this state, and has a long list of names of persons to whom the Handbook will be sent Didn't Know the Law. R. E. New comb was arrested yesterday afternoon, for driving a dirt wagon on an asphalt paved street He wa hauling loam from a lot being excavated at the corner ot Second and Taylor streets, and on pass ing along Third street was stopped by a patrolman. Newcomb protested that he was a stranger In the city and knew nothing of an ordinance forbidding such wagons on asphaltum pavements. "The boss never told me," he said, "and he even rode with me along Third street, with one load, and now the boss says he did warn me and so will leave me to my fate. I am liable to lose my Job, and be put in jail. Just because I'm a stranger in the city and didn't know the laws." The case will come up before Judge Cam eron today. Medical Students Organize.

It was the general opinion that now was the time to make a reputation for Portland in the way of beautifying the city. Some were In lavor of not only making the reputation as the "rose city" go forth to the world, but that the club go still further and see that after the roses were planted, the streets and surroundings be kept so neat that ' there would be no detraction from the flowers. ' It was believed that with proper en couragement hundreds of thousands of roses would be planted before 1903, and that, with the lectures that will be given and the articles that will be written on their proper care and culture of tho plants, the general public will be almost as ready to grow flowers as the enthusiast The chairman was instructed to appoint a committee of four to act in connection with himself to formulate a plan of mak ing Portland the "Rose City."
