A reporter, passing along Alder street yesterday, op posite the establishment of the Honeyman Hardware Company, was witness to a performance which might have been the rehearsal of an act In a pantomime, as he could not hear what was said by the actors. A man drove up to the Alder street entrance of the hardware com pany's store. Jumped down to the sidewalk and said something to a clerk who came out. This clerk disappeared down a side walk elevator, and in a few minutes arose from, the basement with a keg of spikes on the elevator. He turned to the cus tomer and was talking to hlra, evidently about the keg of .spikes. Just then an other clerk came hurriedly out of the store, stepped on the elevator, pulled the chain and disappeared below the sidewalk. This was not noticed by the first clerk, as his back was turned; so, in a moment, having finished his talk with the customer, he wheeled around to help lift the keg of spikes into the -wagon. He did not no tice that the elevator was gone, and so fell backward down through the sidewalk. This was so far strictly in the line of pan tomime. The man. In falling, landed on the head of the man who had taken the elevator away, crushing his hard hat quite fiat, and the falling man turned a somer. sault and landed on his feet. Nobody was hurt, and both men were considerably shaken up. Then the elevator came to the surface with both clerks and the keg of spikes, and the clerk whose hat had been ruined was considerably the madder of the two. His name is- John Foote, and he thought that "V. E. Allison, the ship ping clerk, who had smashed It, had put up a Job on him, and there was no more pantomime about the affair, but an eii dent inclination to conclude it with a fight. The whole affair was Inexpressibly amus ing to an onlooker, especially -as no one was hurt. iDETECTIVES BltEAK UP CHINESE FlOHT. Six Chinamen, armed with Iron bars and the butt ends of revolvers started a hand-to-hand fight last night at Second and Yamhill streets, and matters -were reach ing an Interesting climax when Detectives Snow and Kerrigan, who were passing, took a hand. Then the fighters broke and fled, but the detectives chased one Chlna man, Lung Fu, who flourished a revolver, and they caught him before he had gone 50 yards. Lung Fu dropped his revolver on the sidewalk and said: "What fo' you chase poo' China boy? Him good." At this juncture Tu Ching ran up, now that all danger of bloodshed had passed away, and he said that Lung Fu had tried to rob him. Two different interpreters began to tell the story of the attempted robbery, and they agreed generally that Lung Fu "was a bad Chinaman. It was not possible to learn what had caused the fight, and Lung Fu was locked up. He signified that he was an Ill-used individual. Outlook for Road to Bohemia. R. J. Jennings, secretary and treasurer, of the Helena Consolidated Mining & Milling Company, has Just returned from Cottage Grove, where he has been attending to business connected with the Cottage Groye Railroad and telephone line. The telephone line Is now completed and con nects Bohemia with the long-distance lines. "By 1903," says Mr. Jennings, "the Bohemia district will be connected by rail with the outside world. It Is very true we have been handicapped for rnany years on account of being compelled to rely on transportation by wagons. But now, after much exertion on the part o" those roost interested in the region, the sur vey is now in progress, with J5OD.00O In the treasury to carry out the project of building the road."

Must Be Legiply Marked, Collector of Customs Patterson has received a. 6lr-cular-from the Treasury Department .call ing attention to the regulation provided by act of Congress, requiring that all beef exported to foreign countries shall be ac companied by a certificate Issued by an inspector of the Bureau of Animal In dustry, and that meat which is not cer tified must be legibly marked Irr such manner as to indicate clearly the species of animal from which It was produced. It Is stated that shipments of meat Im properly marked have been sent., from New York, and that there Is reason to believe that the tierces have contained horse meat, and it Is asserted that this meat on arrival In foreign countries, es pecially Scandlvanlan countries, is placed In cases with American brands and sold as corned beef. This practice has become a serious menace to trade In reliable products, and so the attention of customs officers is called to the matter. To Collect Delinquent Licenses.

Bad News From Gilliam. Lonner O. Ralston has received a letter from a friend in-Gilliam County, who writes that fears are entertained that a large area ASCENT OF MOUNTAIN PEAK 22,000 FEET HIGH. Next Sunday' Oregonlan will contain a thrilling account of the ascent of Mount Kanchenjunga, a companion peak to Mount Everest, the highest measured mountain in the world. Until recently this part of the Himalayas was a blank on the map, but last Summer Douglas W. Fteshfleld, with three white men and 50 native Ghoorkas, succeeded, after untold hardship. Jn reaching the summit, Th story Is told by Mr. Fteshfleld, who was interviewed by The Oregonian's correspondent. of grain lands In that county will have to be reseeded. The wheat, which was sown after the first rains, came up all right, but the long spell of dry weather which followed blighted the young plants. The rains came so very, late, and cold weather succeeded the sowing so quickly, that the grain has not come up. The chances are that nearly all the fields sown will have to bo reseeded. Seasons have been very favorable for wheat-growers in Gilliam County for several years, but It looks as If things were going to prove unfavorable this year. Give Me Small Hammer, He Says. "I'm a worklngman, and I earned 50 cents at my trade last week," observed Frank Watson, a sort of tired Weary Willie, in tho Municipal Court yesterday. He had a tired-looking face, his boots were torn and he admitted that the tattered, clothing he wore had been picked up "somewheres." He was charged with vagrancy, and the police evidence was that he had estab lished a hobo camp In Sullivan's Gulch, and was found lighting a fire made of brushwood when he was arrested. "I've heard about a rock pile in this town,' commented Watson, "but I've no strength to swing one of them heavy sledge ham mers. I'm a tailor, and at the rock pile, If I'm sent there, you'll have to give me a small hammer." He was sentenced to fli'e days in jail. Eagen Leaves for Green Fields. Owen Eagen, who was recently arrested for vagrancy, and who afterward stated that he was formerly secretary' of tho State Democratic Committee of Tennessee, was again arrested yesterday morning, charged with being on the streets without lawful business after midnight. Police man Carpenter testified that Eagen per sisted. In hanging around Whltechapel saloons until 3 o'clock in the morning. "If my actions annoy the people of Portland, I can leave the place and go to San Fran cslco," said Eagen, who was dressed, in a green sweater. "Work? I can't do It. I'm too sick. Tve money sufficient for my wants." The matter was compromised by Eagen promising to leave town without delay. Detectives Hunt for Evidence Against Woodruff. Detectives Snow and Kerrigan discovered yesterday, that during the nro at the Brown family hotel, on Grand avenue, December 30, A. L. Woodruff, the janitor, who was after ward arrested for larceny, called at a near-by saloon and left a valise filled with clothing, etc, and stated- that he would return for It.

D. Kelly. HER HOME VS. THE LAW LMRS. "W3IITIXG, SCOW - DWELLKK, DEFIES AUTHORITIES. "Your noase In on Belmont Street una Mast Go," Says Contractor Moo die. "I "Won't," Says She. A battle royal has been declared between Mrs. Dorcas S. Whiting, who lives in a scow at the foot of Belmont street, East Side, and Contractor Andrew D. Moodle, because Mrs. Whitlnc declines to allow her scow to be moved from its present lo cation. "I pay no rent for the place, but It's my home, and I defy any one to move it," declared Mrs. Whiting. "The house Is in the middle of Belmont street, and must go," announced Moodle, who is a houscmover. So a warrant was sworn out by Moodle against Mrs. Whit ing, under the name of Mrs. Jane Doe, and she appeared yesterday before Mu nicipal Judge Cameron. She hag vener able gray hair, and was neatly dressed in black. "Jane Doo," c&lled out Deputy City At torney Davis, and -Mrs. Whiting appeared. "What name shall I put down?" sooth ingly asked Mr. Davis. "It's a matter of Indifference to me," observed Mrs. Whiting, in a frigid sort of way. "Well, we were not sure of your name. nnd we had to call you by a legal name, Jane Doe, when we drew up the com plaint," urged Mr. Davis. "Jane Doe 13 not my name," said Mrs. Whiting, In decided tones. Finally she consented to the name of Dorcas S. Whit-, ing being written on the complaint, "1 want the man who swore out this warrant to face me. I'll have my right," said Mrs. Whiting. In the absence of Contractor Moodie, Special Officer Hawley, of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society, testified that Mrs. Whiting's house was a scow built on logs. In the middle of Belmont street. "It Is not a log house," commented Mrs. Wnltlng. "No; but It rests on logs," explained Hawley. "Well, I will not move it. So there. I haven't the strength to move It. I'm a woman," exclaimed Mrs. Whiting. "If I -were a man". "This case had better be conducted ac cording to the evidence." broke In Mu nicipal Judge Cameron. "Mrs. Whiting has admitted that the house is at the foot of Belmont street, and in the middle of the street. Shfc declines to move it. I will give her until Saturday morning, at 10:30 o'clock, to have It moved." "Goodness," said Mrs. Whiting, "you people talk as if I were able to move the'' house. I can't. Pm only a woman." "Oh, If you would make no opposition, the contractor would move the house for you," stated Mr. Davis. "He will not move that house-t-nqt if I know It, Why, asoon as he gets me out ho will build another house in its place, and put somebody else In it, I've been told this," said Mrs. Whiting. , "The result will be that if you do not move the house you will go to jail," ad vised Mr. Davis. "How can I move the house? It's too heavy, and" "Swear the witness," ordered the Judge, in a resigned sort of way, and Mrs. Whit ing was sworn. "I do not know why they are making all this fuss," she exclaimed, sinking Into the new witness chair. "I have lived In the house for seven years, and there's been no trouble until now. My house is In nobody's way; but con tractors and other men have been bother ing around 1L They have dug around it: they have placed timber and shavings around It, so that I have found difficulty In going out of mornings. This sort of treatment has been going on for the last five years. The city does not want the street, and the spot is not one the city can use. I was there before any one else was there I am the original propri etor." "But the place Is on the river bank," suggested the Judge. "Oh, my house is 100 feet from the river," replied Mrs. Whiting. She then stated that she lived In the house 'alone, and that her two married daughters live in this city. "The court wilkgive you until Monday at 1:30 o'clock to have the house moved," ultimately said Judge Cameron. "I'll see about It," returned Mrs. Whiting. TO AID MANILA COMMERCE.

Within two weeks there will sail from this port for Manila a steamship owned by the Philippine Transportation & Construc tion Company, which will carry the first Installment of steam lighters, with which it is proposed to revolutionize conditions of commerce in tho Philippine Islands.

Russell Tolegrove, who la to be the traf fic manager of the company at Manila, was In his city toHay, and with the gen eral counsel of the company, Franklin Brooks, of 25 Broad street, gave out the following statement: "All lighterage at Manila and through out the islands today must be done with the casco. The casco is a leaky, unstable native boat of 30 tons burden. Every ounce of merchandise that Is taken to or from Manila must be lifted over the ves sel's side ln$o the casco by Chinese or na tive coolies and then lifted from the casco to the wharves again. The cascocs cannot work in bad weather. They are towed in and out of the harbor by launches of Asiatic manufacture. The breakage and waste account through their em ployment Is of course great. They are all controlled by the British, German and Chinese merchants, and no American cargo can enter with their aid, except at a charge that la prohibitive "The results are shown by- figures fur nished to us by the Insular Commission. For the fiscal year 1M0-01 the imports of the islands were $32,SlS.ttl. Of this the United States controlled $3,034,655; Eng land had $13,661,162, and tho Germans and the Chinese had the rest, "These lighters of ours aro steam, self propelling, steel barges, .with, a Lloyd rat ing of AL They have steam hoists, and they can do their work In any weath er: the capacity of each Is 400 tons.

"With these barges will go a complete machine shop to be set up in Manila. There is no up-to-date machine shop there. We are going to be able to repair our own boats and those of other folks, too. We -will also ship our own electric light ing plant for the machine shop arid a complete outfit of wrecking gear; the gear will Include a screw hoist drydeck for small boats. A full complement of Amer ican skilled workmen will be taken along. "Wo mean to make American' trade felt In the new American possessions. Our barges will be the only American bot toms out there, except naval vessels. We 'hope to see a lot more there soon." FREEDOM IS CELEBRATED. Afro-Amcrlcaas Observe Annual An niversary.
