The Orogonlan's Handbook tells all about Portland, the -ntlr- Columbia River watershed and the 1J05 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. Fad That Costs Monet. Amateur pho tography Is evidently a rather expensive lad, if one goes in for all the- latest im provements. A man was seen yesterday buying a new lens for a nice pony camera, -which could be tucked into an overcoat pocket. The camera, with the ordinary lens, cost $20, while the new lens cost $33. It was less than an Inch In diameter, but was tho latest and best, made up of half a dozen pieces of glass, and Its superiority to the old lens was apparent to even a blind man. It was, the dealer explained, the invention of a German, who spent three years in ex perimenting with the different kinds of glass until ho found out what materials produced the best results, and then an other German spent three years figuring out the correct shape for the lens. Some American quick at figures might take a year or two off and ligure out how much beer tho Germans drank while they were perfecting the lens. The dealer paid that it required a German to study up such inventions, an Englishman to put up the money to pay for them, and an American to sell them; but ho did not say what kind of a hairpin the man was who bought them. Fish "With Two Heads. Siamese twins, bodies with two heads and such like mon strosities are happily not numerous among the human race. Among fish fry. especi ally the salmonldae, the ova of which are in comparison very large, all sorts of monstrosities aro numerous, but these never attain any size, as under the law of the survival of tho fittest they are speedily devoured by larger fish, as well as a largo proportion of their perfect brethren. It is the same old story which como down from the dawn of creation, when tho swiftest men killed tho most animals, and the swiftest animals got away from tho most men, whereby the lame and the lazy were killed off and the survival of the fittest secured. Among a lot of j-oung salmon hatched at the hatchery on Salmon River, a tributary of the Sandy, are many having two bodies united at the tails, some with two heads on one body, other pairs united along their whole length, some with two bodies attached to one head and many other curious but not pleasing monstrosities. Such creatures fall an easy prey to the r.wlft and rapacious enemies, and this Is well. Fdlida's Felicity. "Felida, "Where It Is. AVhat It Is and "Why You Should 1,1 ve There," is the engaging title of a pocket pamphlet just Issued by a Clark County, "Washington, farmer. Fclida Is a prosper ous little community of 500 people on the Ifne of the "Washington & Oregon Rail way, seven miles from Vancouver. Fruit and produce to the value of $49.CSO were shipped from there last year. It Is figured out that 103 families reside at Felida, IK5 own their own homes, and that the average yearly Income per family Is $-. S. D. Taylor, compiler of this pam phlet, calls attention to tho advisability of other communities setting forth their advantages in similar manner and secur ing an Intelligent distribution of the in formation. The pamphlet puts in con densed and attractive form Just the mat. lor that homeseekers like to know and "Mr. Taylor's suggestion might be profit ably acted upon by other meritorious and enterprising communities Into New QrAitTERS Soon. New quar ters for the ofilce of the Board of Trade are being partitioned off in the hall of the Oregon Mining Exchange in the Chamber of Commerce building. Secre tary Moore hopes to move into them next week. The next meeting of the board will be held two week?, hence. The spe cial committees on a fireboat and Govern, ment transports -v 111 probably make a re port. Secretary Moore Is receiving many applications for membership. Every mall brings requests for literature descriptive Of the industries of the state. The ad vertising committee Is engaged with a project for supplying the necessary litera ture. Smallpox in Railroad Camp. There Is a case of smallpox at the O. R. & N. con struction camp near St. Johns, and the camp has been quarantined, so that there will be no chance for the disease to spread. There are several cases of the disease at the County Pasthouse, but City Physician Zan does not belie'vc that there will be an epidemic. If the neces sary precautions are taken. J. V. Beach, chairman of the School Board, says that tho vaccination rule will be rigidly en forced in case there Is a likelihood of the disenso spreading. "Wholesalers Still Firm. A whole pale produce merchant said yesterday that his association would not recede from its demand for short credits. The association of retailers will meet Monday night to consider the response of the wholesalers to the objections raised by tho retailers. The response will be in writing. The retailers desire to engage the Creditmen's Association in the ques tion of short credits, but there is oppo sition in tho association against engag ing fn the controversy. Don't Miss It.

The occupants of the old buildings on Henry "Winehard's property at the southeast corner of Fourth and Alder streets have been notified to vacate the premises on March 1. The buildings will at once be torn down and Mr. "Wlnehard will erect there a five-story brick building, to con form largely in style with the building of the Blaumauer-Frank Drug Company, and practically to form an extension ot that building. The entire upper part of the building will be occupied by the Blaumauer-Frank Drag Company as a manu factory and sundries department. The corner store on the ground floor will be occupied as at present by a saloon, and the remainder of this floor will be oc cupied by the Blaumauer-Frank Company as a retail photograph goods department. The new building will cover a space of 50x30 feet, and the upper floors will have elevator service from the present ele. vator of the drug company in its own building. The new building will add greatly to the appearance of Aldef street and will doubtless oon be followed by other modern structures to replace some of the old wooden buildings which have practically outlived their usefulness. Good "Winter's Sport. A sportsman who went out to his preserve on the Co lumbia bottom Thursday made a fine bag of widgeon, and they were in prime con dition. The widgeon is the boldest and most active rustler of the duck family, and generally manages to keep fat when the shy sprlgtails and mallards grow lean. Duck shooters have enjoyed very good sport this "Winter, but have had to pay for It, as every one has for any kind r GOOD DAY'S RECORD IN REGISTRATION. The registration yesterday was 50S, which exceeds the total of the previous high day, Wednesday, by 33. The regis tration to date is about 8000, a little over one-third the en tire vote of the county. The street-car men and laboring men generally have not yet registered. The two nights on which the ofilce has been open, Wednesday and yester day, accommodated only a limited number of working men. There Is a growing de mand from wage-earners, who are not at liberty during the day, that the office be kept open every night for a suffi cient time to permit them to register. The County Court will provide the funds, and County Clerk Swetland has said that he would have the registration office open nightly when necessary. It Is neces sary now! 4 of fun. It costs in the neighborhood of $1000 to maintain a preserve where there Is comfortable shooting for four. This goes for rent, pay of watchmen, ammuni tion, etc, and tho ducks cost the shooter on an average of 50 cents apiece, whether he gets few or many. If he wants many he must put out more wheat, and this costs money. Clay pigeons provide the cheapest shooting, but not the best eat ing, and if a man follows up this humane sport closely it will cost more than It comes to. There are lots of wild geeso "using" in the lake on Sauvle's Island now and some of the sportsmen will take a final shoot at them tomorrow. Fine New "S" Cars. The City & Sub. urban Railway Company has Just placed five new and handsome "S" cars In ser vice. They are quite an improvement on the cars so long in use, being 34 feet long and fitted with powerful motors, which enable the cars to slide up the Third, street grade without any difficulty. A patron of the line said yesterday that when he used to climb that grade In an overloaded horse-car he never dreamed of seeing such magnificent cars on the road. The cars arc built at the com pany's own shops on Savior street, where S3 men are employed. They have 10 more such cars laid out, and eight big open cars. Tho company has the bodies of the cars to run on its new extension to the Southern Pacific carshops com pleted and is waiting for the arrival of the running gear from the East. It is supposed to be on the way and liable to arrive here at any time. Getting Charter Copt Readt. The advance copy of the new charter will be in the hands of tho printer early next week. It will first be passed upon by members of the board, so that errors, If any, may be rectified. .All tho copy will be given to the printer within a week. It is hoped to have tho charter in pam phlet form in less than three week?. In order to be voted on at the next election, the instrument must be signed by at least a majority of the board. Only two mem bers of the board have thus far expressed dissatisfaction with the charter, and there is no doubt whatever that it will receive the required number of signatures. If approved at the June election, the in. strument will be passed upon by the Leg islature for enactment into law. The charter board stands adjourned, subject to a call from the chairman for reassem bling. Said to Be Insane. Rosa De Cico, who Insists on taking possession of her chil dren after the court In a divorce decree has awarded them to the father, was taken into custody yesterday on a charge of insanity, made by her former husband. She was recently before Judge Frnzer on a charge of contempt, and insisted that she would not give up the children, no matter what the court ordered. She said repeatedly, "They are my children," and made a sign that she would cut her throat sooner than part with them. She was In formed that If she would act reasonably. rand not seek to defy the court, she would be allowed to visit the children frequently at proper times, but she refused to make any promise whatever. She acts strangely and fears aro entertained that she will harm herself and also the children. Over 20 Houses Burglarized. a letter was received yesterday from G. Helt kemper, who Is at Long Beach. He writes that on Investigation it is found that over 20 houses were broken Into by the bad men who were arrested, and escaped. Everything In the houses was turned topsy-turvy, but It did not appear that any large amount of the contents had been stolen. Any canned goods left over were appropriated by them, and made an end of. Mr. Hcitkempcr has had diffi culty In reaching some of tho houses broken into, as the country Is flooded, and he had to get around in a boat. Appreciated in New York. A tele graphic request came yesterday to The Oregonian from the New York Tribune for the loan of the picture from which the half-tone of the Castle Hohenzollern, pub. lished last Sunday, was made. The orig inal Is a rare and beautiful etching, owned by Mr. Adolphe Wolfe, who Is a native of Hohenzollern-Hechingen. He graciously yielded to the request and sent the picture. It Is not often that New York papers send so far West for "copy;" but in this case the Tribune showed good taste. First Phesdtterian Church, services tomorrow at 10:30 A. M. and 7:30 P. M.

A mountaineer and sportsman who has lately returned from a trip through the mountains of Northern California desires the attention of the Fish Commissioners and the Oregon Fish and Game Associa tion called to the fact that there are many lakes in the Catcade Mountains be tween Mount Hood and Mount Jefferson In which there are no fish. He says there are also many streams which are ob structed by falls. In which there are no fish above the falls, although these lakes and streams are well suited for trout. He says that in California such waters have been stocked with the varieties of trout suited to them, which have increased and flourished, and that the same thing should bo done In this state. The Fish and Game Association has planted trout in a number of streams in this state, which are reported to be prospering, and the members are making arrange ments to secure and plant more. Per haps when they have fish enough they will look up and stock the barren waters mentioned, a list of which Ehould be fur nished to the club. Butter High, Matches Low. a citizen stepped Into a grocery store yesterday and asked for a roll of butter and some matches. He was taxed Co cents for the roll of butter, which he said was too much. For two blocks of matches he was taxed 5 cents, which he said was too low. The grocer remarked that he made about as much profit on the matches as he did on the butter. This surprised the fault, finding customer, who said that there must be too many people In the match business and not enough in the butter business, while there were more people who used butter than matches. The gro cer, as he made the change, asked: "Well, what are you going to do about It?" and the conversation ended. Dairymen and match-makers can draw their own Infer ences and conclusions. Wanted: A Roadwat. The Chamber of Commerce and the Board of Trade, of this city, have memorialized Congress to require the company that proposes to build the bridge across the Columbia at Vancouver to construct a wagon course in connection therewith. An engineer said yesterday that the added cost of a road way would not be large, but the work of altering the plans of the bridge would be considerable. It is not possible to add an other deck to the bridge without chang ing the design? of the entire structure. Everything would have to be built on a larger gauge and every bolt would have to be stronger. He suggested that the proper way to get a roadway Is not alone to petition Congress but to consult with the railroad company. iMPnovE Thurmajn Street. A large and enthusiastic meeting of the North End Improvement Club was held In Ar tisans' Hall, on Savier street, last night, and was addressed by P. Shulderman, Mr. McKinnon and others. Tho committee on street improvements reported that the Thurman-strect Improvement would be brought before the Common Council at Its next meeting. This street, when the 1m. provement Is completed, will give the North End a well-paved thoroughfare one and one-half miles long and extend. Ing from the Willamette River to Wil lamette Heights. The club is now circu lating a petition for the Improvement of Savler street, and so far It has found property-owners willing and anxious to sign it. To Make Oregon Starch. The Port land Starch Company Is getting ready to start up its new Industry. It has manu. factured and sent out samples and has placed orders for a large number of boxes of different sizes, as well as drums, and Is only waiting till all machinery Is in running order and operating smoothly to begin actual manufacture. The special adaptability of the Willamette Valley wheat for the manufacture of starch of all kinds gives the company an advantage over all competitors, especially in regard to tho finer qualities of wheat starch for food. Tho food starch made from this wheat is very much superior to the East ern "corn starch," and is equaled by only tho arrow-root starch of the Bermudas. To Make Finer Exhibit. Tho perman ent exhibit committee of tho Chamber of Commerce met yesterday to devise ways and means for sustaining and Improving tho exhibit at 246 Washington street. J. F. Batchelder, Robert Livingstone and S. B. Cobb were present. It was decided to enlarge the exhibit. A fund of 52000 will be raised by subscription to make the Im provements and to meet current expenses. Last year about 51750 was expended. C. H. Mclsaac, secretary of the Manufac turers Association, will solicit subscrip tions. The money last year came from about f0 business men. This year the money will bo sought from a wider circlo of citizens and the money will be raised by a systematic canvass. "Human Hearts." Nature never made a more Intricate piece of machinery than tho human heart. It has caused a deal of discussion among scientists. "Human Hearts," the great comedy melodrama now being played at Cordray's to crowded houses, is causing Just as much comment among the theater-going public. Today a bargain matinee will be given for ladles and children, 23 cents to any part of the house. Children, balcony circle, 10 cents. Gave an Owl to the Park. Messrs. Esberg and Gunst have presented the City Park with a very fine owl. It Is a hooter, from Hootervllle, and will furnish music during the night all Summer long.

Brilliant Work nnd Splendid Pro gramme of Visiting MttnlcimiH Arouse Enthusiasm. The concert given by the Chicago Sym phonyOrchestra last night at the Mar. quam was the occasion of much enthusi asm from an audience that included a largo number of Portland's most critical musician;. The orchestra more than ful filled expectations, and all who heard It are loud in praise of its brilliant work. Adolph Rot-enbecker, the conductor, has been a leader In Chicago orchestral cir cles for 23 years, having been prominently identified with Important musical enter prises there before the time of Thomas. During several years he was associated with Thomas, and later became well known in connection with the North Side Turner Hall concerts. Two or three years ago this orchestra was reorganized under its present name, and since then has been spending much time on the road, visiting leading American cities. This Is Its first tour to the Pacific Coast. It is a raro opportunity to hear a notably btrong body of musicians, and Portland music lovers should by ail mennsi turn out In force for the two concerts today, mating and evening, which close Its engagement in this city. There are about 30 players, including several solo instrumentalists, whoso equal it would be hard to find between the two oceans. Mr. Franz Wagner, the 'cellist, is ono of these. He gave the diflicult Saint-Saens' concerto last night with a depth and richness of tone, and brilliancy oZ technique, that placed him at once in the front rank of 'cellists, and brought him a hearty demonstration of approval from the audience. His response was the beginning of a series of encores that nearly doubled the programme, for every number was followed by a storm of ap preciative applause. Tho heavy orchestral number of the evening was the great Tschaikowsky "Symphony Pathctlque" (second and third movements), a work that has never been given here before by orchestra. Its wonderful richness of color, showing the hand of one of the greatest masters of modern orchestration, and the emotional intensity, grandeur and pathos that characterize It, made It of unusual Inter est to all music-students. Wagner's Tannhauser overture and Huldlgur.g's march, Strauss' "Beautiful Blue Danube" waltzes and Salnt-Saens "Dance Maca bre." each In turn brought the heartiest sort of encore for the admirable and sat isfying work of the orcheastra. Mr. Towne, tho tenor robusto. gave a Gounod aria (from "Queen of Sheba") that proved him to have a highly dra matic style, and delightful quality of tone. He gave for an encore the tender llttlo Welsh folk-song, "All Through the Night," in a way that surprised one for its gentleness and simplicity, coming as It did from a dramatic tenor. Mr. Towne is a great friend of Seidl's. He Is well known for his oratorio work and unusual breadth of musical culture. Mme. Ragna Linne has a dramatic so prano of excellent range and power, and very brilliant timbre. She also received an ovation for her work, a Massenet aria ("Herodlado"). and responded with "The Coquette," which was dedicated to her by WIcdIg, tho well-known Chicago mu sician, who Is associated with her In the American Conservatory of Music. This afternoon Mr. Van Oordt, a solo violinist of exceptional merit, will appear on the programme, and tonight will be de voted to Beethoven and Wagner. MATIXEB TODAY. Attrnctirc TItllM nt All Three Local PlayliouHc. The Chicago Symphony Orchestra will give a new programme at the Marquam this afternoon, and as this organization is tho best of Its kind which has ever visited Portland a. largo attendance Is assured. At the Baker, the excellent vaudeville programmo will be given and troops of wonderful little Alice Barnum's admirers will no doubt be out to see her. "Human Heart"," always a favorite drama, will hold the boards at Cordray's and will close Its engagement tonight. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Minn Viola Allen. Miss Viola Allen is to present her new play, and what has proven to be her greatest success, "In the Palace of the King," nt the (Marquam Grand Theater, next Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday mati nee and night. Mr. Lorlmer Stoddard, who dramatized "Tess" for Mrs. Fiskc, has made F. Marion Crawford's romantic novel into a play, and has duplicated his former success, and at the same time provided Miss Allen with a role, that of Dona Dolores de Mendoza, which ex actly bults her personality. "In the Palace of the King" Is divided into six scenes. In the love scenes Miss Alien Is said to be particularly captivating; but In the heroic passages, such as the interview with her father, in which she refuses to give up her lover, Don John; the stabbing of the cardinal by Philip; the denunciation of Philip from the throne, and his final overthrow, she has been given the great est praise for rising to the height of dra matic power.
