Captain Kaiqc Talks ok Lewis River.
Captain Charles T. Kammwho may
be considered the pioneer explorer and
navigator of. Iiewls River, and who a few
days ago reached Bhlrt-Tall Canyon, 23
miles up the north fork, with one of his
steamers, which stretch of the stream Is
navigable at an ordinary stage of water,
takes exception to a statement recently
published that "Lewis River is navigable
to La Center." He says La Center is on
the east fork, which Is really nothing but
a slough, but is navigable to a point three
or four miles above La Center. The north
fork runs through a fine, well-settled coun
try. It Is navigable for 23 miles, and in
high water for three miles further to
Etna, -r hence parties start out for Mount
St. Helens, which is only 14 miles from
that place. Boats running up this fork
take on stores for farmers and supplies
and machinery for logging camps, and
bring out potatoes, poultry, etc Captain
Kamm says that there is a large body
of -very. line timber on the headwaters of
the north fork along the foothills of the
Cascades. Logging camps are established
there, and engines and other machinery
is constantly being sent in. The scenery
along the stream about Shirt-Tail Canyon
Is very romantic and beautiful.
Rubbish Chusadb Successful. The po
lice are gradually breaking in the porters
and other employes In stores and business
houses to obey the law in regard to sweep
ing paper, rubbish, etc, into the gutters;
and there is a visible Improvement in the
matter of cleanliness of streets percepti
ble already. It looks a little queer to see
a man sleeping up the litter on the side
walk Into a long-handled dustpan and put
ting it into a proper receptacle instead of
sweeping It Into the gutter to be washed
or blown according to the weather Into
the street. It is all right, however, and If
every one would attend to this little mat
ter the streets could be kept in good
order. It Is the intention of the city au
thorities that this matter shall be attend
ed to, and as the police show evidence of
looking after people 'who folate the law
In this respect, it is bound to be attended
to, to the benefit and satisfaction of all
concerned.
Change op Economic League Lecture.
The lecture of the Economic League to
morrow evening was to haie been given
by Professor F. G-. Young, of the State
University. He is unfortunately prevented
from filling his engagement by serious
illness, being at this time an Inmate of
the Good Samaritan Hospital. The com
mittee is under great obligations to Pro
fessor Schafer, of the department of his
tory and economics in the same univer
sity, for consenting on short notice to
take Professor Young's place Tuesday
evening, bringing a lecture upon the great
English' reformer and scholar, Thomas
Carlyle. The lecture will bring out Car
lyle's characteristics as a historian, the
subject incidentally calling for compari
son with later methods of history in the
light of more recent conceptions of the
social organism and of later economic
theory.
City Treasury Stands Inroads. City
Treasurer Werlein says that the city
treasury stood in fine condition at the end
of the old year, as compared with the
previous year, having more money in all
the funds, except possibly the general
fund, which has had some heavy drains
on it. There was about J17S.O00 altogether
in the various funds, but $72,600 was paid
out January 2 for water-bondklnterest cou
pons. A large part of the money in the
street and sewer fund is liable to call
at any moment. However, there was
enough on hand on January 1 to pay all
salaries and all claims against the city up
to that date, which is very satisfactory
in a municipal treasury. The total foot
ings of the money handled by Treasuretr
Werlein during the last quarter of the
year aggregated over $500,000.
Great Demand for New Sewers. The
rapid extension of the city during the past
year has caused a great demand for sew
ers. Several large and costly main sew
ers for extensive districts have been built
In the Beech-street and Cook-avenue dis
tricts and the East Oak-street dis
trict. Another large main sewer is in
course of construction to serve the Second-avenue
district. Many laterals to con
nect with these sewers are either com
pleted or in course of construction and
applications for a score more are under
consideration or have been granted. Con
tracts for such sewers are being let at
every .meeting; rf0f the sewer committee.
.. 7 c m0Te are constantly
being presented to the Council.

How One Firm Celebrates Christmas.
A young man employed in a prominent
financial concern was yesterday display
ing proudly to a friend employed In a
similar concern a fine new suit of clothes,
hat, footwear and all, which he said he
had purchased with a part of the regular
$100 Christmas present which all the clerks
which work where he does receive yearly.
The friend looked just a little bit envious
as he remarked: "We used to get the
same present every Christmas, but when
hard times struck the town the present
was dropped, and, although prosperity has
returned and business Is better than ever
before, no one has remembered to renew
It." The old saying In regard to "benefits
forgot" has no application in a case like
this, for the men all remember the bene
fits they received, and are sorry the cus
tom has been forgotten.
Small Dredge Does Good Work. The
little dredge, with an endless chain of
buckets on one side for dredging up sand
and gravel, which was built by the Star
Sand Company some 12 years ago, was
looked upon as a sort of curiosity. It has,
however, proved a very efficient machine,
having, among other things, dug the pits
for the subfoundations of all the bridges

POLICE SERGEANT CHURCH, JIM HILL AND JOE GOGGIXS.
Memories of the old rock-pile, when the hobos helped to beautify City Park, cluster around Police Sergeant Church, Jim
Hill and Joe Gogglns, reading from the right of the picture. These three worthies used to meet regularly in the old days, and
-nhen Church saw them at the new rock-pile on the first morning of Its operation, at First and Flanders streets, he said:
"Hullo, fellows; this looks like old times." Gogglns growled and cald: "Th polls done me a shabby thrlck. 01 ha shwept th'
polls house fer a long tolme, an' now becas Ol git out in a few da-as, Ol am put to wur-rk smaehln' rocks." "Irlry tolme a
polls saw me oglln' a saloon, he arr-rlsted me." said Jim Hill. A rumor got around the rock-pile gang that Jim Hill Is really
the Hill who Is at the head of the Northern Pacific Railroad In dlssulee. An Oregonlan man asked Hill, the rock-crusher, about
this rumor, and the prisoner replied, with irony: "Ol hev nothln' to say for publlcashun. See me frlen' Jay Pierpoa Morgan."
Hill is making a splendid rock-crusher, and he works his hammer with the regularity of a machine, thinking every rock ha
strikes is a policeman.
across the river, and burled the trenches
of the two pipe lines which bring Bull
Run water to the West Side. Two dredges
of a similar character have been bujlt
here, and have proved very satisfactory
for the work for which they were intend
ed. The Star Sand Company Is building
another and a larger one at a cost of $15,
000. Such dredges might be used In deep
ening the harbor or the channel In front
of wharves, and so leave the city dredge
to attend to the rivers.
Hard to Get Lighthouse Rowboats
Built. Captain Langfltt, United States
Engineers, who is having several substan
tial rowboats built for use at different
lighthouses in this district, has had con
siderable difficulty in finding any one to
undertake the job, and after all has had
to dhide the -work between two parties.
Boatbullders here generally devoted them
relves to the construction of yawls, skiffs
and other pleasure-boats, and the Astoria
boatbullders devote themselves to fishing-
boats, and so no one was anxious to take
a job to build the kind of boats needed for
the lighthouse service, TvhSch must not
be too heavy, but still stanch and capable
of weathering an ordinary storm.
New Houses Are Going Up. Thomas
Gulnean has let a contract for the build

The plans have been prepared by F. Man

Death or Mrs. Co3tei.tjo. The funeral

SOLDIERS TO TAKE FIELD
LIVELY CAMPAIGN TO BE 'WAGED
. FOR MONUMENT FUND.
Canvass BcsjtIrs la Febraary, "When
All Otker Projects Will Be Asked
to Go Array Baclc and
An enthusiastic meeting of the Soldiers'
Monument Association was held yester
day afternoon at 64 Grand avenue. There
was a full representation of the general
committee. Professor M. L. Pratt pre
sided. . Minutes of the previous meet
ing were read ana approved. The meet
ing was held to take steps for opening
an active canvass for the 'funds for the
proposed monument.
J. W. Ogllbee, of the committee on loca
tion, reported that progress had "been
made toward securing the ground in Lone
GRACES AT THE CITY ROCK-PILE.
Fir cemetery. It Is desired that
a deed, to the ground on which
the monument will stand should
be made to the City of Portland, so that
it will be for all times cared for, after
the committee appointed to put it up
shall have finished Its work and dissolved.
George B. Hartmus also spoke to the
effect that there would be no difficulty
along thjs line, and that he had no doubt
but that the deed to the site would be
given at the proper time The monument
will be erected In the center of Lone
Fir cemetery on the public block.
There was a general discussion as to
the right time for the general canvassing
committee to begin its work. It was
decided that an active canvass should
commence on the first of February next.
By .that time all the other matters that
have engaged the attention of the public
will be out of the way and the field left
reasonably clear for the monument enter
prise. The city will be districted so that
those on the canvassing committee will
work effectively and harmoniously, with
out interfering with each other. The
full canvassing committee is as follows as
appointed:
E. M. Sarjtent
M. L. Pratt
C. J. Ward

It was decided, after full discussion,
that It would be a proper thing to ap
point a general building committee, whoso
functions It wpuld be to have charge of
offers of plans that may be submitted, and
all other matters pertaining to the erection
of the monument. On motion it was de
cided to name a committee of three, with
Chairman M. L. Pratt, of the general
committee, as chairman. The other two
members will be appointed at the next
meeting. It Is expected that other plans,
others than the one prepared and sub
mitted by D. D. Noer, would be offered.
Of these this special building committee
will have charge. Later, after the se
lection of the plans has been made defi
nitely, a supervising architect will be
appointed.
Secretary Ogllbee reported that he had
received from Sumner Women's Relief
Corps $109 5S for the monument fund,
which money was ordered deposited in the
name of the association. The amount
was regarded as a handsome donation
from the corps and is the first that has
been received.' It is expected that sub
stantial aid will be received from the
corps of the city. Also the secretary re
ported that $10 had been received from
the sale of a picture donated by W. E.
Hayden for the monument fund. This
makes the total received upwards of $240.
The association then adjourned to meet
again Sunday, January 26, 1902, at 64
Grand avenue. At that meeting the dis
tricting of the city will be undertaken,
and all the preliminary work before the
opening of the canvass will be finished.

while running down clews In a big
murder case, and the sporting editor
was coughing to get his oIce with the
Intention of "butting in" and skinning the
police man's yard a block, when there was
an interruption.
"Ting-a-ling-a-Ung!" went the "phone,
"B-r-r-r-r!" went the receiver when the
instrument was taken down. Evidently
the caller had impressed central with the
Idea that the need was urgent.
"Big police story, I'll bet!" growled the
reporter who covered that particular beat,
for he had another yarn to match with
the sporting editor, and didn't want to lose
the chance.
"Think nothing ever turns up but mur
ders," sneered the man who wrote upper
cuts and Jabs. "Probably some one wints
to know how many eggs it would take end
to end to girdle the globe."
"Hello!" said the man at the 'phone.
"Is the editor in?" inquired tho possessor
of a soft feminine voice. In which could be
discerned the slightest trace of anger or
annoyance.
"Not at present; this is one of tho re
porters. Can I 7"
"Well, do you write things for the
paper?''
"Occasionally. You see, that's what
I'm "
"Is It? I'm awful glad, for I want you
to tell that old fogy "
"Beg pardon tell who?"
"Old fogy, you know- He had an article
In the paper this morning saying it wasn't
nice for girls to play basket-ball. He said
a lot of mean things that aren't true."
"And " suggested the reporter.
"I want you to tell him that just because
we girls want to play basket-ball he
needn't say we want to be prizefighters.
And even lf we did want to box, wo
wouldn't be the horrid kind that call each
other names In the paper."
"About basket-ball?" Inquired the re
porter, with a hope of keeping the thread
of the conversation intact,
"Oh. he says It coarsens us, and we are
not so nice as our mothers were when they
were girls. The boys don't think that.
And mamma doesn't object to our playing,
so what's It to him? I'll wnger a box of
candy that he's bald-headed and growls
like a bear, and hates children. Probably
he knew our mothers better than he does
U3, and there wouldn't anybody marry him
because he was an old fogy, and he's a
bachelor and has grown up sour and mean
and hateful.
"He needn't think Just because we play
basket-ball that we don't dance as grace
fully as did our mothers. We don't have
to swear because we wear sweaters and
gymnasium shoes, do we? You see. when
mamma was a girl there was lots of things
she couldn't do because other girls didn't.
Dut now basket-ball is played In all of tho
colleges back East, and the men there
haven't protested that the girls are not
nice."
"Of course not," agreed the reporter. "If
you will give us your name, we will print
what you have said."
"Dear, no! I wouldn't have my name In
the paper for anything! It Isn't proper "
"And basket-ball is?" asked the reporter.
"You knbw, I said we weren't the kind
that wanted our names in the paper," de
clared the girl.
"You needn't print my name. You say
it for yourself, because It's all true. And
I tell you, It makes us girls lots strong
er and healthier. Sometimes It's nice to
have muscle. It saves a girl lots of both
er, like last Christmas, when a-a-a well,
a girl I know was under the mistletoe
and a man came along and tried to kiss
her. She didn't want to bo kissed, and
because she had played basket-ball and
was a little bit strong she made him
stop."
"What was she doing under the mistle
toe, lf she didn't want to be kissed?"
"Well, perhaps she didn't know she was
under It, or "
"Perhaps," Interrupted the reporter.
"Well, perhaps she thought some one
else was coming.
Which goes to prove that "Old Fogy" Is
wrong and that basket-ball is a good
thing.

DRUGGISTS MUST BE CHARY.
They Sell all Kinds of Hair Prepara
tions, ..nd Fear to Discriminate.
Druggists sell all kinds of hair prep
arations, and as a rule they are wisely
chary of giving preference to any par
ticular one, but many of them have come
out plainly for Newbro's Herpicide. the
new treatment that absolutely kills tho
dandruff germ. H. Swannell & Son,
Champaign, 111., say: "One customer of
ours who did not have a hair on top o
his head when he began to use Herpicide.
now has a fair start toward a good head
of hair. We believe Herpicide to be by
far the best preparation of its kind on the
markeL" Hundreds of similar testimo
nials from everywhere.
