THE OREGOXIAX'S HANDBOOK.
The Oregonlan's Handbook tell ajl about
Portland, the entire Columbia River -watershed
and the 1005 World's Fair, commemorative of
the Lewis and Clark expedition to Oregon. The
book contains over 150 handsome illustrations,
and it is printed on enameled book paper. It
will be mailed to any address in the United
States or Canada for 7 cents a copy.
"W'ht Interest "Was Charged. A property-owner
who called at the office of the
City Treasurer yesterday, to pay his as
sessment for the construction of the
Beech-rtreet sewer, was both surprised
and disgusted when required to pay 35
cents as interest. He had seen the as
sessment advertised, and In the adver
tisement It vas stated that the assessment
"would become delinquent If not paid
within 20 days from that date. He had
called only 24 days from the date men
tioned, and yet was "cinched" for in
terest. Of course the city officials were
correct In demanding this interest, and the
taxpayer's misunderstanding arose from
his not having read all that was said
In regard to payment. The advertisement
In all such cases states that the as
sessment, if not paid within 30 days, be
comes delinquent, and the Council will
order a warrant Issued, for the collection
thereof,"together with the Interest there
on and the costs of collection." On the
cards sent to each person assessed. It is
plainly stated that "the assessment will
bear interest 10 days after the first pub
lication of this notice." In this case the
man complaining had not received the
postal card notice, as he was paying an
amount not levied on his own name. He
thought he had Just cause for complaint,
and It took some time to explain the mat
ter and show him that he had no reason
for complaint at all. This explanation Is
made for the benefit of such as have de
layed paying their assessments on the
Beech-street sewer till now, and who may
not feel satisfied when called unpn to
pay interest from 10 days after the first
publication of notice.
Schevie's Story of the Crime. Aug
ust Schevle. charged with the murder of
Joseph Schulkowskle, near St Helens, As
now in Multnomah County jail, and will
remain there for safekeeping until his
trial takes place. The body of Schulkow
skle was found In the underbrush along
side of an unfrequented road with two
bullets in the body. The bullets fitted the
Winchester rifle owned by Schevie, and a
shoe-string was found on his person like
one which the deceased wore attached
to his -watch. Schevle is about 22 years
old, and of Polish parents. He says he
first met Schulkowskle ' about three
months ago. He came from San Fran
cisco, and made his home with the Schevle
family. He said he intended to settle
on land. The prisoner asserts that Schul
Tcowskie started for Portland on the
Thursday before he was killed, and that
was the last he saw of him alive. He
denies having molested him In any man
ner, and regarding the bullets says there
are many riflles carrying the same kind
of bullets, and that the shoe-string is the
same as any common shoe-string.
Glad Christmas Rush is Oyer, Tire
employes of the Portland post-office, and
the mall clerks running into the city, aro
glad that Christmas has come -and gone.
They now have time to eat and sleep,
just the same as ordinary citizens, al-'
though their nerves are somewhat shat
tered by the constant strain which they
have undergone. "Working for Uncle Sam
isn't what it's cracked up to be, es
pecially during the holiday season, so say
the wornout postal clerks and letter car
riers. The Christmas rush Is over and the
volume of mall has reached Its normal
condition, as far as the Portland post
office is concerned. Now and then big
Christmas packages that have gone
astray turn up, and the poor carrier goes
out with a big load, but for the most part
the business of the department has re
ceded to its usual condition.
North Front Street Almost Im
passable. Complaints of a vigorous na
ture aro made concerning the horrible
condition of North Front street, from
Seventh street to the Boncyard at the end
of the street. It cannot properly be con
sidered a street, as it is practically im
passable, and the sawmill men are rapidly
encroaching on the right of way where
there ought to be a street. There Is a
danger of its being forgotten before long
that there ever was a street there. City
Engineer Chase practically "acknowl
edges the corn," and says the street
ought to bo put in order, but without
money It cannot be done. It will be at
tended to by and by when the money nec
essary can be obtained.
Monet in Pouutrt. Dr. S. Parker, who
lives at 209 North Eighteenth street, is
among those who make poultry pay. He
kept three dozen hens on a space 50x100
feet, plebeian fowls without fancy pedi
gree or fancy tastes, and for two years
he kept accurate account of the cost
of all their food and of the market value
of all their product At the end of that
time he found he was ahead just $1 per
fowl per year that was the net profit
Dr. Parker now keeps two dozen hens
'and gets three dozen eggs per week from
them. Some of the eggs-are small, but
many are large as blooded hens lay, and
one the doctor brought down town yes
terday weighed just a quarter of a
pound.

Txxio ix a Mkat Shop. A pair of
horses attached to an express wagon,
which the owner had left standing on
Ash street at noontime yesterday with
nosebags containing their luncheon of
oats on their heads In place of their
bridles, took fright at something and ran
away. They dashed up to Third street,
and not being able to turn quickly enough,
rushed across across the sidewalk into a
butcher shop till the top of the wagon,
catching against the top of the doorway,
checked, them in their wild career, and
they stood pawing the sawdust on the
floor, breathing flame and smoke and
snorting oats all over the place. One of
the butchers seized the cash register.
Jumped over the chopping block and
struck out for tall timber. The other ran
up the slats of the meat rack and perch
ed on the top, while the. bookkeeper
Jumped Into the safe and pulled the door
shut Fortunately his coat tails were
caught in the opening and prevented the
safe from locking, or It would have re
quired dynamite to have got him out
as he had the keys In his pocket The
team was taken away by a policeman,
but at last accounts the man who had
the cash register had not shown up. It
is such a common thing for teamsters
to give their horses lunch while standing
unhitched that it is a wonder more such
accidents do not occur.
Sportsmen Make Bio Kills. Sports
men generally enjoyed a very successful
day's duck hunting on Sunday, though
as usual, while some preserves were fair
ly covered with ducks and geese, on
others there were none worth mentioning.
One of the crack shots knocked down 21
big honker geese during the forenoon,
picking off the leaders of the flocks, some
of which weighed 15 pounds each. Having
secured all the geese he cared for, he
turned his attention to ducks in the after
noon and In about two hours had shot
the limit Few did so well as that but
many made fine bags. It rained a part
of the day, and many received the
thorough wetting which duck-hunters ap
pear to hanker for. -Just before daylight
five vivid flashes of lightning hurtled
across the sky, which some supposed were
dispatches on the way to China, sent
by Marconi, but others held that they
only indicated that a violent storm was
raging on the coast This lightning had
the effect of waking up the duks and
sending them flying around, and shoot
ing commenced as soon as it was light
enough to see a bird. Some hunters re
port that they never before saw so many
ducks and geese as were flying Sunday.
Year's "Work of Y. M. C. A. The Janu
ary number of the "Association Men," the
official organ of the International Young
Men's Christian Association, Is a very
attractive number, and contains much
valuable information about the general
work of the Association. All the work
of the different departments, for the year
1901, is carefully reviewed and the results
commented upon. The magazine con
tains numerous interesting half-tones,
showing the new buildings that have been
added to the Y. M. C A. equipment while
plans of future work are discussed at
some length. Statistics show that the
people of the "United State's have, during
the year 1901, pledged and committed ?10,
000,000 for the support and endowment
of the Y. M. C. A. More than 150 build
ings have been added to the Associa
tion's plant and 77 others are assured.
Tho membership, in America, Is 268,477,
and throughout the world, 533,019. In the
United States, 2S.OO0 men have been regis

'Mighty Good App,le Butter. The
four buckets of apple butter sent to
Manila as a Christmas present for some
of the Oregon Volunteers, two years ago,
and returned to General Summers a short
time ago at his own expense, when ex
amined were found to be In good con
dition after their round trip across the
Pacific and their stay In various ware
houses. This Is satisfactory as showing
what an excellent article of apple but

however, half a dozen persons called on

M'GUIRE AND A BURGLAR.
Well-lino wh Portland Ex-CitlxeH
Has a HarrovrlHg: Experience.
A Tecent experience of Harlan P. Mc
Guire, formerly of Portland, and very
well known here, "is thus narrated In tho
Seattle Post-Intelligencer;
"While gazing down the barrel of a
vicious-looking bulldog revolver H. P.
McGuire, who resides at 2131 Sixth
avenue, was early yesterday morning
forced to watch a nervy burglar ransack
his apartments for valuables. McGuire
and his wife were ordered to put their
heads under tho bed covering, and the
latter promptly compiled, but McGuire,
after some parley, prevailed upon- the in
truder to permit him to watch his opera
tions, after stipulating that he would keep
quiet
"McGuire was aroused shortly after 4
o'clock by the burglar's presence in the
room, and demanded to know what was
wanted. For an answer he was forced to
look down the muzzle of a revolver and
told to disappear under the cover. Mrs.
McGuire construed the order as also in.
tended for her, and promptly disappeared
from view.
" 'You've got the drop on me. but 1
think I am entitled to the privilege of
watching you,' rejoined McGuire. "With
the admonition to lie still the burglar
condescended to grant the request. He
then proceeded to make a thorough search
of the room, but failed to And anything
of value which attracted his fancy, and
left without further ado.
"'McGuire notified the police by tele
phone of his experience, and it was as
certained that the robber secured entrance
to the house by means of a pair of nip
pers applied to the key of the front door."

Proxies Obviated.
PORTLAND. Or., Jan. 5. (To the Edi
tor.) I noticed in The Oregonlan some
time ago that 2500 or SO00 people had sub
scribed to the Lewis and Clark fund,
and as each subscriber will "have a vote
for each share he holds ($10). it would
be Impossible to vote that many Inside
of a few days. I would suggest the fol
lowing plan so that all could vote and
select Intelligently the best business men,
prominent citizens and workers, to carry
out the best interests of the subscribers.
On Monday next January 13, the stock
holders will assemble in mass meeting,
and I would suggest at that time that
they proceed to nominate 200 of our best
business men and. subscribers to the stock.
The names can be placed on a black
board or some other device, when the
full 200 names are decided on; then let
The Oregonlan and Evening Telegram
publish this list for three consecutive
days, from which list the 50 who re
ceive the largest number of votes will
be declared the board to manage the In
terests of the stockholders.
The second day after the publication of
the notice in tho above papers. The sec
retary can have the polls opened at 246
"Washington street (the Chamber of Com
merce rooms), with the ballots from 1
o'clock P. M. until 8 o'clock P. M. One
day after the last day of publication tho

The Nw Year's Oregonlan for 1902

total -votes of each member of the 50.
All proxies must be filled out at or before
the casting of the vote with the sec-j.
retary. All stockholders who may be out
of the city may mall their Votes as well
as proxies to the secretary, for final
count This plan would give every one
entltlled to a vote a chance to make
a careful selection of a ticket that he
would be satisfied with, without inter
ference, as he certainly could do so at
his private place of business, office, or
home, at leisure, by cutting this list out
of either paper and scratching out all
but 50 names. After completing the
ticket he could certify at the bottom the
number of shares he owns and votes;
also t6e number of votes by proxy. A
form of proxy could be made out and
printed in the same papers dally, so that
it could be filled out and either he- him
self can deposit it with his vote, or mall
the same.
This plan. In my opinion, would save
a great deal of trouble and give satis
faction to all stockholders; also do away
with many proxies.
The simplicity of this plan, with the
publication in the dally papers of the list
of the 200 from which stockholders are
to select would do away with the nec
essary expense of printing a ballot; also
It would give- a very careful considera
tion by every stockholder of the men
they would like to represent their in
terests. "When tho final vote is declared
they will take up the work In the fu
ture. Also I would suggest If this plan Is
not feasible, that the chairman, Mr. Cor
bett call together the preliminary com
mittee of S5 and let them devise a plan
more feasible probably than this. The
main object In sight Is to accomplish
the most good to the subscribers and to
the City of Portland and State of Ore
gon over all personal matters, and none
but the very best should be selected to
fill this board, as they have a very Im
portant work to perform, which extends
over a few years. STOCKHOLDER.
MINISTERS INDORSE 05 FAIR.
Management Congratulated on Its
Unparalleled SaccesK.
The principal business before the meet
ing of the Portland Ministerial Associa

burn, of the First Baptist Church; J. R.
T. Lathrop. of Grace M. E. Church;

gregational Church, and Huber Ferguson,
of tho First United Presbyterian Church.
The report follows:
"Whereas, The business organizations of Port
land have Inaugurated a movement for the
celebration in 1005 of the centennial of the
exploration of Northwestern Territory by Lewis
and Clark; and,
"Whereas. The churches' missionary effort has
been a potent factor in the molding of society,
making possible a government of the people,
by tho people, thus making secure the fruits of
discovery and commerce;
Whereas, The members of the Ministerial As
sociation of the City of Portland have a vital
Interest in tho development of this Northwest
ern Territory in all the commercial as well as
Its moral and spiritual Interests.

movement in preparing for the Lewis and Clark
Exposition in 1005. and congratulate the man
agement on its unparalleled success in Us work
thus far.

"When thei reading of the resolutions
was completed Rev. A. M. Bray, said
that during the exposition the Sabbath
should not be violated, nor the city run
on a wide-open plan. The saloon element
should not control the fair. It were just
as well thatPortland should have no ex
position as one that would be governed
by tho lower orders.
"Wo know .what we have had in Chi
cago and Buffalo; those places were
schools of vice," he said.

committee have further time to look Into

of Chicago, and the discussion which fol
lowed brought out the Information that

H. G. Talbott, pastor of the Taylor-Street
M. E. Church; Rev. W. T. Blggers, of the
African M. E. Church, and Rev. Daniel
Drew, Quaker.
HARBOR UEEDS DREDGES.
"W: B. D." Offers Sngncestleaa for
Several River ImprovcBicnt.
PORTLAND, JanJX-To the Editor.)
Recent happenings, and especially the
low stage of tho river the past few
months, prove that Portland needs a
dredge, and perhaps more than one. The
late squabble of the Port of Portland
Commissioners does not seem to favor
the situation, and I would respectfully
propose before any contracts are let for
the new boat that you Investigate the
dredges used by the Sues Canal Company,
machines that will lift S30 to 400 tons of
mud per hour, at least so I am told by
seafaring men. One of these dredges
would clean and deepen the channel for 25
foot draft ships inside of one year.
Those boats are also far cheaper to
operate, and the dredgings from the Port
land harbor would make valuable prop
erty of Mock's bottom below the Port
land Flouring Mills and the low lands be
low the North Pacific sawmill. I think It
would be well to investigate the merits
of the machine lately sent out by a Glas.
gow firm to a naval station In the West
Indies, which will dig up the hardest
gravel, for Instance, such as is found in
front of Montgomery dock, No. 2, of this
city.
Portland also needs a flreboat, and AI
blna will soon need better ferry facil
ities. I would suggest a first-class ferry
boat, equipped as a flreboat with a
couple of members of the regular de
partment always on duty. As tho great
est danger from fire along the water front
is below the steel bridge, on account of
the many docks and sawmills, and also
because of the time It takes the engines
to reach such places, the boat should al
ways be here, where most needed, and
always have steam up ready for busi
ness. The old boat would come In handy
as a relief boat when repairing and dur
ing high water, also when the 1903 Ex
position takes place, whether It Is held at
Peninsula or up at Sellwood.
Could not Oregon and Washington join
In building the Celllo Canal or opening
the river for through traffic by steamer
by using their prisoners and gathering the
unwilling vagabonds frojn all points in the
two states, clean out the saloons and dives
In the North End of this city, and make
them work or stay away? Barb-wire
fences and a few guards would easily
keep them inside the limits, and right here
let me say that If Astoria had spent her
coin In opening the river for steamers
(at Celllo), instead of building a railroad
to compete with steamers to Portland,
or else used her money to develop the
country of the Nehalem and Tillamook
we would not now see steamers coming
here from Japan and British Columbia
carrying from S00 to 1200 tons of coal for
their own use and compelling the Port
land shippers to lighter 1200 to 1500 tons of
wheat to Astoria to complete their car
goes. Respectfully yours, W. B. D.
THE PERUNA ALMANAC.
The druggists have already been sup
plied wlth'Peruna almanacs. There Is sure
to be a great demand for these almanacs
on account of the articles on astrology
which they contain. The subject of as
trology Is a very attractive ono to most
people. The articles on astrology in the
Pcruna almanac have been furnished by
a very coiapetent astro"16glet. and the men
tal characteristics' of each sign Is given,
constituting almost a complete horoscope.
A list of lucky and unlucky days for each
month are given. There will be a great
rush for these books. Ask your druggist
for one early before they are all gone.

Mrs. Dorcas S. Whiting, charged with
having refused to move her housa from the
middle of Belmont street East Side, ap
peared yesterday before Municipal Judge
Cameron for his decision in the case, but
ex-Governor Pennoyer was not there to
support her, as the knowing ones hoped
he would, like a knight of old.
"The bouse Is not moved yot, I can't
do It" explained Mrs. Whiting.
"Then It is the duty of this court to Im
pose a penalty on you," said the Judge,
kindly. "You had better proceed to have
your house removed without further de
lay." "I can't do It. I haven't the money,"
insisted Mrs. Wbltlag.
"You are fined ?10," went on the Judge.
"I can't pay that fine. How can a per
son pay a fine like that when she don't
have tho money?" asked the woman
"If you cannot pay the fine, madam,
you will have to go to jail," stated Dep
uty City Attorney Davis.
"Then I'll have to go," returned Mrs.
Whiting, defiantly. Accompanied by Jailer
Roberts she was given under the charge
of Matron "Woods, but she was not put
Into a cell. Several friends interested
themselves in her behalf, and Chief of
Police McLauchlan shortly afterward told
her to go home, as he disliked to keep
her In jail. It is understood that several
East Side people are to try to make up
a purse today to have Mrs. Whiting's
house moved and avert all further con
flict with the city authorities.
An effort was made last night to see
ex-Governor Pennoyer, but he had evi
dently retired.
