ALTGELB DYING STRICKEX WITH APOPLEXY AT A '"SffiETOG AT JOHET. trelce Came at the Close ef a Pre i Beer Adre Doctor Say the JSao' Is Rear. JOLIET, 111., March 12. Ex-Governor John P. Altgeld was stricken with apo plexy late last (Tuesday) night, and now lies .at the point of death at tho Hotel Monroe, He was unconscious at 4 o'clock this morning and four physicians who "had been summoned in consultation had diag nosed the case as apoplexy. It was the opinion that he probably could not live until daylight. Mr. Altgeld Is In one of the rooms on the top floor of the hotel, and strict or ders were given that ao one other than the doctors attending him be allowed In thB suite. Judge Altgeld was stricken at the close of ari address delivered at the opera house In behalf, of the Boer women and children In the concentration camps of South Africa. While Rev. J. A. J. Whip ple was addressing the crowd Mr. Alt geld arose from his seat on the stage and walked hurriedly to the wings. Reaching there, he fell In & dead faint to the floor and did not recover consciousness until nearly 11 o'clock, after he had benn re snoved to the Ifotel Monroe, across the street. At midnight, Mr. Altgeld had lost con sciousness again, and as late as 4 this snomlng there was not the slightest indi cation of improvement. Though Mr. Altgeld was not In view of the assemblage when he fell to the floor, the Incident created great excitement In the theater. As he walked across the etage hts sudden pallor attracted atten tion, and iwmediately afterward Rev. Mr. "Whipple's tddress was Interrupted while a request tor physicians in the audience to come forward was made. As none of the local physicians was in the audience, owing to a banquet of the Jollot Medical Society, ft was several minutes before medical Attention could be secured. In his ipeech Mr. Altgeld made a forc ible ple3 for the Boer women and chil dren In Lhe concentration camps In South Africa. In his Introductory remarks he declare that all friends of humanity owed debt of gratitude to Governor Tates far Issuing a proclamation soliciting assistance for the Boer women and chil dren In the concentration camps which the British are maintaining in South Af rica. The speaker said that the people ot America had raised a large sum of money with which to relieve the distress of the Boer women and children, but were una ble to send It to them, because Lord Pauncefote, the British Ambassador at "Washington, objected to It He further charged that Lord Pauncefote had for years meddled in American affairs. There were 18 counts and specific charges In Governor Altgeld's indictment. He said In substance: "Just before the beginning of Hie Span ish "War Lord Pauncefote, representing the aristocracy, meddled In our affairs and tried to unite the governments of Europe In making a joint protest against Ameri ca's Interference In behalf of Cuba. But when the American people asserted them selves and our Government was compelled to go to the rescue of Cuba, England Is sued a strong neutrality proclamation, for bidding all of her subjects everywhere from furnishing us any aid or doing any thing that would in any way be a viola tion of the strictest neutrality." The meeting was arranged under the au uplces of the Chicago branch of the Amer ican Transvaal League. The German, Swiss, Italian and Irish societies were well represented,"and the people generally purchased tickets liberally. JOLE3T. IU.. Marchl, &) A. M. A bul letin just lasued'hy the physicians states that Mr. Altgeli remains wholly uncon scious, and that there has been no lm provement In his condition for two hours. Dr. Stewart has Just stated that the Indi cations are that' Mr. Altgeld cannot live until daylight MAKE IT' THE ROSE CITY. A Few Words on the 1005 by aa Exposition-Worker. CHAKL.ESTON. S. C, March L (Special correspondence.) The Lewis and Clark Centennial Is becoming known of, itself throughout the nooks and corners of the land, but la my mind tho time has ar rived when he should help it by judicious advertising. There Is no doubt as to our ability to have an exposition and to carry It -on successfully. We have everything In our favor. It eeems to me that Port land is making a mistake in not at once selecting a site, planning and shaping the grounds, tc. Past experience with expositions pijoves It a mistake In start ing construction work at a late date. It s not a pleasing sight, and, indeed, cools the enthusiasm of early visitors if they have to walk over rubbish and the like In their endeavors to reach some of the buildings. And again, -visitors do not some Jong distances to see scaffolding and to doflgc the dropping from fresh plaster and whitewash. The states making ex hibits do not care to Save to delay in placing their displays; their Intentions are to be ' ready on opening day, and they should be given every encouragement to do BO. Oregon haB an opportunity to go down in history as having an exposition finished and ready to give the -visitors on the first day the. whole show. As to the ground and landscape gardening, there Is no excuse for us not surpassing any ex position evrt held. The lawn, far ahead of opening day should be a carpet of green, with arbors of vines, shady nooks and pathways of flr and cedar and hardy plants. Each florist In the city should se lect a space and keep It filled with flowers. This was done at Buffalo, and not only proved aa advertisement for the firm, but made a grand spectacle. Right here let me mention the fact that there has been nothing In connection with the preparation for our exposition that has so pleased me as the organization for beautlfrlng the city with roses. This is one of tbe grandest movements yet start ed, and one that should appeal to all. It Is something that costs so little and means so much. The "rose show" given during the meeting of the National Edi torial Association In Portland, Is still the talk of those who saw it, and will be for time to come. The plan to organize and systematically carry on the work Is a wise one. We all know. that the old saying, "what's every body's business Is nobe-dy's business." Then the personnel of your committee ccrtalnlj; assures the success of the work. Each exposition city has a name: Chi cago 'The "White City"; Buffalo. "The Rainbow City"; "Charleston, "The Ivory City." Now, why not call Portland during the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and for that matter for all time, "The Rose City," and have the name sustained In all the glory, -"beauty and sweetness that It Im plies. and ot which the good citizens of Portland are capable of doing. There is not a day, as the general landscaping of other expositions presents Itself to me that, my thoughts are not busy with Ideas whjch can far more successfully be car ried out at Portlan dthan at previous ex. positions. It Is to be hoped that the Exposition commission will realize tho grat Impor tance of the selection of a site. A few had better be dlssappolnted in -a real es tate deal than have delays which will embarrass the whole Northwest at a later date. Systematic advertising 'should be begun at once. It is true thai all Ore gonlans who have opportunities and press privileges are using them In every possl- Sp way and wiU continue to do so until e closing ""hour of the last day of tne exposition. There should be a committee t on. con entlons whose duty It would be to secure National gatherings to be held In Portland during that time. This naturally brings hundreds of people that otherwise would not think It possible to go "West And not a day should be lost In doing this, for It has become so popular to have a city called a convention city that every inducement Is held out two and three years in advance. Buffalo has an organi zation for that purpose, as has Kansas City and several other cities. I do not mention these matters because of a doubt that they have not already been consid ered, but In the hope that more prompt action may result About July 10 300 newspapermen will reach Portland for a few days' visit This would be a good time to break ground for the Exposition. The occasion could be made very Interesting and one that would advertise the Exposition very extensively. Here at Charleston it Is a well-known fact that the woman's board has accom plished wonderful results in bringing con ventions to Charleston. Here Is an oppor tunity for Portland's wide-awake women. The woman's board here Is composed of the leading ladles of the state. And one lady remarked: "It is really j. little early I to brag, but in all our meetings we have never bad a word of contention, and that is more than the men can say." In conclusion I would say: Select a site and begin the landscape gardening. An orchard or all varieties of fruit ber ries and grapes should cover several acres. We can have model dairies and everything else to show progress and ad vancement And as there is no state that can excel us in fine stock we will open tho eye3 ot thousands of visitors. But whatever you have, make the rose the King; let It bloom In every corner of every yard; border the walks and street car tracks: cover the old shanties with climbers; let them grow and blossom in sweet and beautiful profusion, not alone on the Exposition grounds, but every irhoro until the air will be filled with perfume that will be the Inspiration of song and story, tne artists cream, and the admiration of the world. B. T. W. SMALLPOX SUSPECTS. Askejl Sot to Make a Bee Line to the Police Statloa. Smallpox suspects are asked to stop the practice of going either to the pollco station or the office of City Physician Zan at the Marquam building, when they think they1are afflicted with smallpox. They are asked to remain In their houses dnd notify either the police station or Dr. Zan, by telephone, and their cases will be promptly attended to. A case in point occurred last night A man about 35 years old, who said he had been living In a Third-street hotel, walked into the police station and said that ho thought he was sick. The stranger sank Into a chair and Dr. Zan was hurriedly sent for. Two or three minutes passed, and tho stranger remarked: "I may have smallpox. I ain't sure." He spoke so low that his remark was not sufficiently un derstood, and when Dr. Zan arrived ho at once said that the man had smallpox, and ordered his immediate removal out side the station. The .patient was taken to the isolation hospital in the wagon used for the treatment of Infectious dis eases. It -was only last Sunday that a. man sauntered into the police station and drawled out: "Say, I guess Tve got small pox." He was another of those who seem to think that it is of no consequence If the safety of the living Is Imperiled. The police station, in the meantime, has been fumigated. Dr. Zan had quite a time of It yester day before he could get a smallpox pa tient taken from a scow at the foot of East Pine street The patient was a young man about 25 years old, and he had been sick about a week before the case was reported to Dr. Zan. The latter called at the place, and when the woman who opened the door learned the nature of his visit she said: "You will not be allowed to take away my son. I shall pray to the Lord to strike you dead if you try to take him." "Don't you know that you should obey the law and report such things?" asked Dr. Zan. "I have nothing to do with the law. I am in the keeping of the Lord," snapped back the woman. Dr. Zan returned with a policeman and Deputy Beutelspacher, and when the woman saw the force ar rayed against her she capitulated and al lowed her son to be taken to tho isola tion hospital. She spoke In bitter terms of neighbors who had told the author ities about her son's condition. Orceon Notes. The Coqullle Creamery will start up March 15.

Yesterday press dispatches announced the arrhal of Captain Seymour at Kansas City, Mo., and that after he had been shown the suspect the latter was released, as the police found out they had arrested the wrong man. It has been four weeks since tho body of Nora Fuller was found in a vacant house on Sutter street San Francisco. The police are now working on new clews. was seriously injured. Telephone and electric wires in tho path ot tho storm were strewn over the streets and a great number of poles were torn out.

The storm aroused the entire population In the north part ot the city, who thought the town was In the grasp of a real twist er. The storm moved southwest after leaving this city, striking Elkhorn, a village of 500 people, 10 miles away. Half a dozen dwellings in that town were bad ly twisted, and several small buildings blown down. The elevator and cribs of the Omaha Elevator Company received more damage than any other property. The storm came up suddenly and lasted but a few minutes. All day yesterday the temperature regis tered from 00 to 6S degrees, and the weath er bureau reports that the storm Is the result of the unseasonable heat, which caused it to form over this section.

Prevision Will Be Made for Board Werlc for Development of Ore area MlalBK Interests. J. H. Fisk, tho well-known mining ex pert, obtained a copy of the bill consti tuting the Portland Water Committee, from Dr. C. H. Raffety, member of the committee, yesterday, for the purpose of having a bill framed along similar llns constituting a mining bureau for this state. He said that he desired the bill framed like that of the "Water Commit tee on account of Us nonpartisan and thoroughly practical character. Mr. Flsk will hive his bill prepared for Introduction In the next Legislature, and has thu3 mado an early start so that It may be thoroughly exploited and understood. Mr. Fisk said that the object of such a bureau will be to collect authentic mining statistics of this state and put them In concrete and available form, as a basis for asking for the establishment of an assay office In Portland, to show the min eral resources of Oregon and provide cor rect Information to Investors, There Is nothing of the sort at present In this state, and there Is little correct Informa tion concerning mining operations and de velopment The province of this bureau, as suggested by Mr. Flak, would be to gather this Information from every por tion of the state by correspondence and by an agent who would visit the mines. He thinks that on the whole the mine owners would not hesitate to give out the information vrhen they knew It was for the benefit of the whole state, to promote the mining industry and to furnish infor mation to investors. A large part of tho work could be done through correspond ence. In speaking of the proposed mining bu reau. Dr. Raffety said: "I am. very much Interested in this matter, and I shall not hesltateto do all Itcan to promote and encourage the movement for the estab lishment of this mining bureau. In my judgment It Is something that Oregon has needed for many years. Other states have bureaus and have benefited largely through them. I was surprised myself on my trip to Baker County about a year ngo, when I visited the mines, and saw mining operations the extent of which I had not even dreamed. A bureau of this sort would be a clearing-house of authen tic Information, and In my Judgment would greatly promote and facilitate In vestment in mines In this state. The cojt of maintenance would be small In com parison with the advantages that would result. If the principles of the "Water Committee act be followed, it will cer tainly be nonpartisan. I hope Mr. Fisk will succeed." BUSINESS LIVELY AT FAIB.VTEW. Warehouses aad Tle-Trcatlnir Plant Are la Prospect. N. N. Hall, a well-known farmer living near Falrview, said yesterday that many newcomers were investing in land at and all around Falrview. He knows of five sales of property In Falrview within the past week. Outside, also, farm, land has been purchased. He says thero Is quite a movement In Falrview. Last year 100 carloads of potatoes wero shipped from that point, which is no small item. Wolf & Co., who did most of the shipping, are talking of building a warehouse at Fair view from which to handle the potato crop, as thero are no facilities of the sort to be had at present Tho United Artisans Hall, a two-story building, will soon be finished. The first floor will be occupied by the cheese fac tory owned and operated by II. C. Camp bell Alongiside this building is another two-story structure, which will be occu pied by Mr. Campbell as a feed mill. A 20-horsepower engine and mill machinery will be Installed as soon as the building has been finished. Mr. Campbell also contemplates the erection of a warehouse alongside the mill for storage of feed. The most important industry, says Mr. Hall, is the proposed tio-treatlng or dip ping plant, whlcrr the O. B. & N. Company contemplates establishing at Falrview. This, Mr. Hall says, will re quire the constant employment of about 30 men. Surveyors were on the railroad last week searching for water, which was found In sufficient volume west of tho place. It Is thought that Falrview will be selected as the location for this plant, as It Is near the tie-producing territory to the southeast Ties received at Alblna may be run out on flat-cars to the plant to be treated. "With all these things," said Mr. Hall, "we are looking for qulto a busy time In our neighborhood thl3 year." MANY CONCRETE SIDEWALKS. DarlaKT the Year 1001 on the East Side More than 8000 Feet Laid. C. C. Murphy, who looks after new and old sidewalks on the East Side for the Street Department, says that for 1S01 thero were 8000 feet of concrete sidewalks laid in the residence portion. This was more than had been built for the past 10 years, and had never been exceeded in any one year. These figures are encour aging, and the outlook for more concrote sidewalks for 1902 Is even better. On East Fourteenth street, which will be Improved between Hawthorne avenue and Belmont street concrete walks will b built on both sides. Many property owners have said they will replace their wooden walks with concrete, and a con- slderable portion of the many new dwell ings will be provided with them. ENROLLMENT HAS REACHED 4S3.

J. O. Hall, principal, reported yesterday that this is an increase of 22 over tho enrollment at the first of the year. In the large building on "West avenue the en rollment Is 3$7 and in the .Glcncoe school house It Is IIS.' Thirteen teachers are em ployed altogether. At the meeting of the directors Monday evening the teachers' new salary sched ule went into effect, the teachers receiv ing the Increase from. February 1. Reports from the schools were satisfac tory In every way. Owing to the large attendance in the "West-avenue building. Are drills have been Introduced. At the sound of the gong Monday the entire schoolhouse was emptied without confusion In 50 seconds. "Without warning the samo thing was done In 52 seconds. TWO CROWDED SCHOOLHOUSES. Clinton Kelly and Brooklyn Balld ingm Next 1b Line for Additions. Two classes from the Clinton Kelly schoolhouse, on East Twenty-sixth street, have been accommodated In the Le Chapel on Powell and East Eighteenth streets, and yet the former building Is still crowded with pupils. The classes sent to the Lee Chapel were from the overflow that could not be accommodated In the Clinton Kelly. At the Brooklyn building, on Milwaukle street, every room Is crowded and the hallway !s used for recitations. - The Board of Education has made the best of the situation for that part of the district for this year, but will face a hard problem next year, when the number of pupils will surely be largely Increased. No additions can be built to either the Clinton Kelly or the Brooklyn this year. It Is said, for the reason there Is not money enough, but these buildings are next In line for additions a year frorn the com ing vacation. The pressure will then be so great on both buildings that at least four rooms will have to be added to each. East Side Notes. The wife and one daughter of Constable Cox are both very sick at their home. City Engineer Chase, who had been con fined to his home on Belmont street for a week with an attack of la grippe, was able to be at his office yesterday.
