How Some Pavements Wear. Trie
Portland Railway Company, having made
some repairs to Its rights of way on Jer
ferson street. Is now preparing to dress up
the space between the rails of the tracks
on "Washington street from Sixteenth to
Twenty-third street. This- has been done
by the company no less than three times
since the street was paved with bitumin
ous rock. The ground being sloping, the
crushed rock used for dressing up is
washed away by the rains as fast as it
Is powdered by the wheels of passing ve
hicles, and then the work has to be done
over again. Strange to say, there are still
a number of quite large patches of the
bituminous rock pavement In that part of
the street still remaining Intact and ap
parently in as good condition as when
the pavement was laid many years ago,
while In the greater part of the street the
pavement has entirely disappeared. This
shows that the bituminous rock varied
greatly in quality. Had It all been as good
as the best of it. It might not have gone
so entirely out of favor here as it has.
Speaking of the durability of paving ma
terials In connection with this matter. Su
perintendent Fuller, of the Portland Rail
way Company, yesterday mentioned the
6ectlon of the Intersection of Alder and
Fourth streets, between rails of the old
cable road still there, which was paved
with stone blocks and which has stood,
with the exception of a few blocks along
the conduit In the middle of the track,
while three macadam Improvements and a
wood-block pavement have been worn
out, and It Is still In good condition. The
company will probably remove the track
and this bit of pavement when the new
woojl-block pavement on Fourth street Is
laid, which will be before long.
Father Seeking His Son. Paul S.
Bolger, a sanitary plumber of 378 Park
avenue. New York City. Is anxious to
learn the whereabouts of his son, "Walter
F., who disappeared from home at Yon
kers, N. Y., November 19, last. The boy
Is described as JS years old, 5 feet 11
Inches tall, weight 178 pounds, complexion
fair, of retiring disposition and fond of
reading. His mother is seriously ill from
"worrying over his absence. The father
has made several trips oil clews supplied
by detectives, but all to no purpose. The
last clew was that the boy had started
for the Pacific Coast, and the father has
appealed to plumbers' organizations and
tho newspapers to assist him to find his
son. Anybody having Information about
the young man will confer a favor by
making It known to Paul S. Bolger, 378
Park avenue, New York City, to the Chief
of Police of New York, or to William
Stevenson, 266 First street, Portland, Or.
Wheue Is the Mother of the Child?
The Oregon Children's Home Society has
taken in a young boy by the name of
Clifford Fields, who, in his Journeylngs
from house to Tiouse, has evidently been
treated to doses of morphine which did
not greatly aid the child's development.
The mother of the child Is supposed to be
in the city, and a diligent search has been
made for her whereabouts, but thus far
ehe has not been located. The mother Is
now given an opportunity to take her child
If she wishes hln, but if she does not
claim him the case will he taken Into
court, and the boy turned over to the cus

Nobody "Wants Them Now. The Bel
gian hare craze has died out, and no one
has yet been heard of who has made a
fortune out of these wonderful animals.
"When enthusiasts were paying 510 each
for hares to start flocks with they could
figure up their prospective profits Into the
millions. It waa figured that from a single
pair in a few months thousands would be
produced. Including the second and third
generations, and In a few months more
the output would number millions, and
that 1,000.000 hares at $10 each would be
worth $10.000,tt)0. This was all right as
far as figures went, and people were
alarmed for fear that the hares would take
the country and the human population
woiifil have to get out It has- turned out,
howover, that the hares do not run into
millions either In numbers or money as
readily as was calculated; In short. It was
again demonstrated that figures can lie.
Yesterday a coop of Belgian hares was
received by a Front-street commission
man, fine ones they were, weighing seven
pounds each. After some trouble ho suc
ceeded In selling them at (5 cents per
pound, while chickens were readily dis
posed of at 11 cents per pound. "While
Eastern Oregon is swarming with jack
rabbits or English hares, as some say
they are, and they are being killed off
with clubs by thousands as pests, there
Is not likely to be any great demand here
for hares of any variety. The number of
Belgian hares sold In the market is very
small.
Its Fame Spreads Everywhere. The
last annual report of the Oregon State
Board of Agriculture, which was awarded
a gold medal at the Buffalo Exposition
as -superior to any of the reports of other
states, is, as may be Imagined, a valu
able document, and is In great demand.
Requests for the report are constantly be
ing received from all parts of Washing
ton, Idaho and California, as well as from
many of the Eastern States, and Its fame
has even reached foreign countries. Yes
terday George Lamberson received a re
quest for a copy from F. X Crittenden,
of Chelmsford, England, a member of the
Essex County Council. The book was for
warded. Mr. Lamberson also received a
copy of the sixth annual report of the
Department of Agriculture of British Co
lumbia, aTiandsomely printed and pro
fusely illustrated book, about the same
size as the Oregon report, accompanied
by a request for a copy of the same. The
Illustrations in the British Columbia re
port are principally of farms, gardens,
etc., while those In the Oregon, report
are of a more practical nature. Commis
sioner H. E. Dosch, who prepared the Ore
gon report, has good reason to feel proud
of his work, which has attracted so much
attention at home and abroad and Is do
ing so much to advertise the advantages
of this state.
Hair Seal in Town. A full-grown
specimen of the hair seal, some eight feot
In length, was displayed In front of a
Fourth-street market yesterday, and at
tracted much attention. These peals visit
the Columbia to feed on the luscious Chin
ook salmon, and in the fishing season
herds of them hang about the mouth of
the river. Some of them frequently ven
ture up the river for some distance, and
prey on the salmon In the nets of the
fishermen, usually contenting themselves
with a bite out of the belly of the fish.
The fishermen who are out drifting for
salmon catch only a few and get a big
price for them, and when one of their
fish Is mangled and spoiled by a seal they
do not feel kindly toward the seal. The
one on exhibition yesterday had evidently
been caught in a net while, trying to steal
fish, and had been hit over the nose with
a club and killed. The carcass was
bought by a Frenchman, who stated that
he wanted only a particular portion of the
seal and cared nothing for the skin or
blubber. The attention, which a seal, devil
fish, or any strange fish attracts when put
on exhibition gives an Idea of what an
attraction an aquarium stocked with liv
ing fish of many varieties will be at the
1S05 fair.
MANr Taxpayers to Attend. Tne
meeting of the school taxpayers Monday
evening will, in the opinion of a member
of the Board of Education, be attended
by three fonnIda"ble bodies tho Taxpay
ers League, the school teachers and the
friends of the kindergartens. The teach
ers wlU'push their claim for increased sal
aries; the klndergartners "will ask for 15000
for next year, and, he said, the leaders
of the league will battle against any raid
upon the treasury. Many of the teach
ers are taxpayers, the director said, and
many others are not, and many of both
classes are urging their taxpaylng friends
to attend the meeting and vote for higher
salaries. The meeting, which will be held
In the assembly hall of the High School,
will, the director thinks, be largely at
tended, and standing room will be as
scarce as cushioned chairs at a vestry
meeting.
One More Smallpox Case. Another
case of smallpox has been added to the
list In the pesthouse, the new patient, who
Increases the number to 13, having strolled
In from Seattle way. This Is about the
largest number of smallpox patients ever
In the pesthouse at one time, but this
need cause no concern, as they have near
ly all come from outside the city. There
have been a good many smallpox patients
in the pesthouse since It was opened, but
not one of them has died so fax. Vaccina
tion and fumigation have destroyed the
terror this once dread disease used to in
spire, and a few cases more or less in the
city attract no attention, as they are
promptly looked after and secluded by the
very efficient Health Department of the
city.
The Seventh-Ward Trouble. The. lat
est arrangement proposed as a solution
of the trouble raised by the proposal of
the Charter Commission to do away with
the Seventh Ward Is to allow the number
of wards on the West Side to remain the
same as at present, and to extend the
Seventh Ward by removing the northern
boundary from Hamilton to Caruthers
street. It Is further proposed to Increase
the number of wards on the East Side
.from four to five, and to reduce the num
ber of Councllmen-at-large to be elected
from five to three. This will give the
requisite number of Councilmen as pro
posed by the Charter Commission, and It
Is hoped will prove satisfactory to all
concerned.

Lamberson has on exhibition at 246 Wash
ington street several sprays of crabapples
of the second crop of this season grown

the second crop was gathered yesterday.

The second of tho series of afternoon

comed by the hostesses of the day, Mrs.

of the demonstration was "Sweets."
"The juices of some of the most prosaic
plants which we In our ignorance throw
away are made Into delicious confec
tions," said Mrs. Miller. "Wo know as
little of the value of food products as a
child knows of tho" mechanism of the
toys he plays with. Of the drudgery
that goes with their preparation we hear
on this Coast, requiring a change In the
measure. Orange should always be used (
for flavoring sunshine cake, but not the
liquid extract, which Mrs. Miller declares
Is a snare and a delusion. She uses the
grated rind, taking care not to grate any
of the white part; sometimes a llttla Juice
Is added. The pan was a square one,
with slides at the top, so that when the
cake Is taken out of ( the oven the pan
can he turned upside down on the table
without injury to the cake. In this way
the cake Is prevented from shrinking or
"falling," as It is technically called.

MR. DOOLEY'S LETTER. This week the philosopher gives his views on

GEORGE ADE'S MODERN FABLES. Six short ones In his customary satir
ical vein:
Get ?25 From One and ?10 and
Watch From Other No Clew,
of Coarse.
Two highwaymen appeared at the water
ing trough on the Barnes road, about 4
o'clock yesterday afternflon, and held up
a farmer named Venn and a Chinese
gardener and relieved them of ?33 and a
silver watch. The victims had come to
Portland to deliver farm produce, and
were on their way In their respective ve
hicles to thel$ homes near Swedevllle,
when the robbery occurred. At the water
ing trough, about a mile thla side of the
western city limits, they were suddenly
confronted by two unmasked men. One, a
tall man of medium build, presented a
revolver and ordered them to "shell out."
The other, a short man, searched their
pockets and obtained $25 from Venn and
510 and a sliver watch from the China
man. News of the robbery was sent to Deputy
Sheriff Hardy, who lives near Mount Cal
vary cemetery, and he repaired at once
to the scene. There he met Venn and
the Chinaman. Both talked English im
perfectly, and Hardy could get but little
information from them. The tall man,
they said, wore a blue sweater, was
smooth shaved and was about 24 years
old. They said they would recognize him
If they met him again. They could give
no description of the other robber, except
ing that he was short and unmasked.
People living In tho neighborhood said
when they were told of the hold-up, they
had seen two men, one tall and one short,
loafing near the watering trough, and
they were certain, the smaller robber had
been lounging along the road for a week
or more. As he appeared to be a work
ing man they paid no particular atten
tion to him, and were unable to give any
description of him that might serve as
a clew.
Mr. Hardy says the robberies are tho
first that have occurred on tho Barnes
road since a Chinaman was held up near
Mount Calvary cemetery about two and
a half years ago.

"As to the source from which sweets
arc derived, It may be said that thero Is
perhaps no other food constituent so uni
versally distributed as sugar. It is found
In honey, manna, fruits, cane, the maple
tree, the palm; it Is extracted from milk,
the seaweed thrown up on shore by the
tide; it Is found even In sawdust, waste
paper and rags..
"From childhood to old age the fond
ness for sweets stays with us. In youth
overindulgence In confections brings with
It toothache; among those of more ma
ture age rheumatism Is. the penalty. .Na
ture sets her price upon it, as upon many
another good thing In life. 'No ono should
make free use of sugar without plenty of
exercise. To such as expend much energy
in physical exertion, as the athlete, the
soldier, the miner and those who are ex
posed much to the cold, it has a value
that is above rubles and gold."
Mrs. Miller then passed on to cake-
making. A sponge cake Is distinguished
fc-om cup cake, sho explained, by the ab
sence of butter. Sponge caka Is not so
difficult to make as Is generally supposed
by housekeepers. If - the method Is the
right one, and the materials are good.
It cannot falL It Is the easiest and most
certain of all the cakes. For sunshine
cake she took the whites of seven eggs
and the yolks of five, beaten separately.
When the whites had been beaten about
half the full amount of beating required
to make them stiff one-third- of a tea
spoon of cream of tartar was added. This
step In the process Is a trick of the trade
that is an important clement to final suc
cess. The cream of tartar naraens me
albumen of the egg to a certain extent,
so that when once beaten up it retains
Its lightness. When the whites have
been beaten to a very stiff froth, one cup
of sugar Is added. She then put in the
five yolks, which were also beaten till
very light. It Is Important to remember
not to stir, she said, or the cake may eas
ily be spoiled. Mrs. Miller very deftly
and lightly contrived to mix the ingredi
ents, using the eggbeater, without any
stirring whatever. But to those uniniti
ated In the gentle mystery, this step in
the process seemed little short of magic
A few years ago, whenever the house-
hwlfe even the sweetest-tempered one In
the world undertook to make angel food
or any other kind of a sponge cake, the
man of the house always found It con
venient to leave tho house; heavy foot
steps creaking on the floor above, a
door slammed hard three rooms off.
brought frowns and tears. A man could
not even take off his boots comfortably,
man-fashion. In his own bedroom, with
out Jarring the oven, thereby spoiling the
cake. It was a Umo when a man wished
he were made of pink cotton; but since
he is not, it was found expedient for
him to take himself elsewhere till tho deli
cate operation was finished. But all this
fuss, and worry has now become a thing
of the past By following the rules laid
down by Mrs. Miller, a sponge cake may
be taken out of the oven when but half
baked and carried across the street with
out danger of losing any of Its lightness.
Of course. It must be borne In mind that
the proportion of flour is not the same
In the East as on the Pacific Coast This
same recipe could not be followed In Min
nesota or Iowa, for example, because the
Eastern flour differs from the flour used
ters of the American Revolution to
raise a fund sufficient to build a
convention hall in Washington, D.
C. The plan Is to have some
place that can be used for the cere
monies of Inauguration. Such a building
Is very much needed, and the Daughters
of the American Revolution believe that
the Nation Is positively suffering for lack
of It. When a President Is Inaugurated,
It seems, the old Pension Office, or some
other antiquated, tumbled-down structure
l used, and they believe It Is high time
our patriots were roused to a sense of
the absurdity ot such Inadequate hous
ing for the American people on such Im
portant occasions like this.

"I see by The Oregonlan of this morn
ing that you are paying back tho licenses
collected on pleasure vehicles," she re
marked, In a flute-like voice.
"Yec, mlsp," replied Billy, "we are re
turning all such license fees to the owners.
Are you one of those who paid that In
famous and unjust tar?"
"Yes, I am; and I want my money
back."
"What sort of a vehicle did you pay
on?"
"On a bicycle, of course."
"I am sorry, miss, but bicycles are not
considered by the city authorities as pleas
ure vehicles, and the license on them Is
not being returned."
"Well. I think that is real mean. If bi
cycles are not pleasure vehicles, I'd like
to know what they are."
"Some consider them engines of de
struction, and others an invention of the
evil one," replied Billy. "It depends on
whether you run over others or others
run over you. You pays your money but
you don't take your choice."
The smile had faded from the young
woman's face, and the flufflness out of her
hair, when she found she wao not to get
her dollar back, and as she turned dis
dainfully away she cast a withering
glance around at everybody in the room.
