The Oregonlan) Handbook tells all about Portland, the entire Columbia River -watershed and the 1005 World's Fair, commemorattveot the Lewis and Clark expedition to Oregon. The book contains over 160 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 cnta a copy. Some Logs Too Bio. Persons owning timberland on which the trees are five feet In diameter might as well harvest the crop at once, for they will make nothing by waiting 50 or 100 years until the trees have grown to measure 6 feet or 7 feet in diameter. The fact was learned yester day from a man who was scaling a raft of logs on the city front. His scale was long enough to measure logs 5 xeet in diameter, and he said he occasionally found logs In a raft measuring 7 feet 6 Inches In diameter, but they all -went for 5 feet diameter. The scale was cover ed with figures showing the contents of logs of all the ordinary sires; but he only took the diameter and length of them, and went to his book for the contents. "When asked why no more was paid for a log G or 7 feet in diameter than for one 5 feet in diameter, he said tie mills were not prepared for handling logs larger than 5 feet in diameter and did not care to be bothered with them, as they were Irregu lar sizes and comparatively few in num ber. He was of opinion, however, that there would be a new arrangement In regard to these large logs. The smallest sized log that the mills here will accept Is 16 inches in diameter, and they do not care much for these. They cut up a lot of them sometime when by accident the upper of a pair of circular saws is broken; if the mill man does not forget, as hap pened a few nights ago, when one of the principal mills in the city was shut down while the upper saw was being repaired. In many places In the Northern and East ern states booms of logs can be seen about mills In which few as large as 16 Inches in diameter are to be found. Potatoes Come High. A canneryman from the Lower Columbia was in the city yesterday buying supplies. He growled at the price of nearly everything, and espe cially at the price of potatoes, as he said the feeding of such a gang of gourmandlz ers as be has ononis hands Is bound to make a financial wreck of him. He says he has cut down the allowance of potatoes to one per meal for each man, and Sara toga chips are no longer even mentioned, and any one ordering more than one po tato is charged extra. "That is sometimes done in more pretentious places than a cannery boarding-house," remarked a by stander. "I ordered a broiled mackerel for breakfast at a hotel the last time I was here, and was served with one as big aa a blucback salmon, und received only one potato with It. The waiter asked if I had potato enough, and I told him that It seemed very little potato for so much mackerel, but I supposed I could make it do. He said I could have more on an extra order, but potatoes were scarce now, and the Oregonlans were charging them $2 60 a sack for them. So I took an extra order for the benefit of the Oregon farmer, and that's what you salmon-canners ought to do." Aii the "Wat From Missouri. The principal attraction on the streets yester day -was an ox-team "which "came across the plains from Missouri many years ago, Manager Baker, with his usual energy, sent 25 miles into the country to procure this team to haul around town an adver tisement of "In Mlzzoura," being present ed at the Baker Theater this week. The turnout, navigated by a genuine Missour- ian from Pike county, perambulated the streets all yesterday afternoon, and wher ever it stopped a crowd collected. The patient, broad-horned cattle became -weary after a time, the hard pavements making their feet sore, and when, about 6 o dock, a halt was called at Third and Morrison streets, the near ox laid down on the asphalt to ease his poor old corns, and both he and his mate heaved up a "cud" and chewed away as contentedly as if In a snug corner of a pasture instead of one of the busiest corners of Portland, -with several hundred people staring at them. They would probably exhibit the same indifference if on the stage "In Mlzzoura.' ubautifui. Exult Roses. The finest clsplay of roses seen so far in any of the gardens about town is on an "Empress of China" climber on the north side of vm. H. Barnhart's residence. Third and Sherman streets. There are at least two dozen very nice roses in full bloom on the bush at present, and it is more than two weeks since the first bloom appeared. The bush, although on the north side of the bouse, receives a good share of the after noon sun, and is without doubt ahead of any other bush in town in the number of roses produced this season. Occasionally a person is seen with an outdoor grown rose in his buttonhole and here and there about town opening buds may be seen, but they are few as yet, for although there has been fine growing weather of late, the season is a backward one. In a week or two more roses will be no novelty and the rose crop promises to be more than usually bountiful this season: Clearing Awat Debris. The work of clearing away the ruins of the building on Taylor street, between Second and Third streets, which has long been a ruin, and which was partially destroyed by fire some weeks ago, was commenced yesterday. The building belongs to W. L. "Wood, who is absent in Arizona, and an arrangement has been made to lease the ground to a blacksmith. S. McBride, who proposes to erect a shop there. The ar rangement cannot, however, be consum mated until Dr. Wood arrives home, which will be two or three weeks. His agent, D. G. Woodward, says his confidence would not allow him any longer to delay the work of clearing away the ruins which are liable to be a great nuisance when hot weather sets in; so he yesterday set a man to work clearing up the ground. A brick building of either two or three Etorles is certain to be built there very soon. Visiting Nurses' Association. The Vis iting Nurses' Association held a meeting yesterday afternoon at the residence of Miss Falling. Mrs. Lucy Morgan was chosen as nurse to serve the association for "the coming year. The treasurer's re port revealed the gratifying news that there is 700 in the treasury. The associ ation is much in need of more members to enable it to carry on its work, and It is felt that if the good it is doing were generally known it would not lack for support. Three families have been vis ited during the past week, and one dying man given the benefit of a nurse's care in his last hours. The new members add ed yesterday were Mrs. Trimble and Mrs. James Laidlaw. Admission Will Be Free. There will be no charge for admission to the Mar quam Grand tomorrow night The Lewis .and Clark Civic Improvement Association has provided a splendid programme con sisting of good singing and an exhibition of stereoptlcon views that have been pro cured at considerable expense for this oc casion. The public generally are invited to attend and learn something of the "home beautiful." Dalles Boat leaves dally at 7 A. M. from foot Alder street for The Dalles ana all Upper Columbia River points.

The river;! commenced rising here Saturday, and nowfl everybody Is endeavoring to peer Into fu turity and see how high the June rise of the Columbia Is going to make the Wil lamette here. Captain Anderson, of the steamer Metlako. who arrived from The Dalles yesterday afternoon, 6ald that from Saturday evening till yesterday morning the water rose two feet 5 Inches at The Dalles. From the Cascades it was re ported that the water is rising 18 Inches a day there. Captain Thomas Mountain. who has managed the June rleo at Ash street dock 24 years, was next applied to for information on the subject. Ho said on Saturday the water on his gauge was 9 feet 6 Inches above zero, and yesterday It was 10 feet 4 Inches, a rise of 10 Inches in two days. Captain Mountain has kept the run of the riee and fall of the river for 24 years, but admits that occasionally It gets away from him and out of bounds, as in 1S94, when he got in over his head on tho upper dock at Ash street, and if any water got into his watch at that time It Is there-yet, for ho has never opened the case since. There Is euppoeed to be con siderable snow in the mountains, and If certain contingencies occur which very sel dom do occur there Is likely to be very high water, but the probabilities are that the snow will come off by degrees, as usual, and pass to the sea without attract ing ahy unusual attention, so there Is no use worrying about any flood until It, cornea Down on Sauvles Island the sloughs and lakes are rising slightly, and the boys with pitchforks are spearing the carp which come out on the flooded grass, but further down the Columbia the rise has not commenced to show Itself yet. No Move in Market Matter. It Is now some nine months since the Union Market Company commenced negotiations for a ten years lease of the Market block with the Idea of removing tho old exposition building and erecting a market building there. The matter Is still in the air and will probably remain there for a while. The last discussion of the subject by the city authorities was at Joint session of the Board of Public Works, several weeks ago when a number of Interested parties were present, and presented their views on the matter. The meeting adjourned subject to the call of the cnalrman, Mr. Mills, and he has not made any call yet. He says that there has been so much advice and so many suggestions received from so ma many people that It has been decided by the Mayor and himself to wait two or three weeks to see if some of the persons who have taken so much Interest in the matter will not come to the front and offer Jo build the market and pay the city 10 per cent of the gross receipts yielded by It. The scheme for remodeling the old Pavilion Into a market is not looked upon with favor, as It would cost several thou sand dollars and the city has no money available for such a purpose, and the building would be unsuitable for a mar ket after it was completed. The Union Market Company offers to build a proper market and at the end of 10 years to turn It over to the city. Now if any one will better this offer by adding 10 per cent of the gross receipts to the city's Income, let him speak before long or forever after hold his peace, and the city will have a market. Neglect to Get Permits. The City Engineer's Department finds that a num ber of persons are neglecting to take out permits for the erection of buildings which they are constructing, or more properly, permits to use the street lir front of such structures for depositing building material on. The department is now making out a list of such delinquents for the purpose of arresting them and having them flned, as provided by law, unless they procure permits. There Is some obscurity about the law requiring permits for building to be taken out, as it does not state definitely whose duty It is to procure this permit. Generally speak ing, the contractor for a building is re quired on his contract to procure the necessary permit, but often there is one contract for the foundation and an other for the building, and there is a doubt as to which must procure the per mit. In some cases it Js the owner of the property. In any event, the law re quires that a permit shall be procured, and the first contractor starting work is commonly the one called upon to get the permit. Those who have been Ignor ing the law in this matter will do well to attend to procuring a permit at once, for the fine for neglecting this, though only ?5, is five times the cost of the per mit. Election Cards Expensive. The offices of 'candidates for public positions have been besieged of late by a number of small boys, who have been anxiously inquiring for election cards to paste In their scrap books. In many cases the boys have been sent away empty-handed, and a candidate eald that the reason was that tho as pirants for office could not afford to dis tribute their printed matter promiscuous ly. The cards cost a great deal of money, and as no man was certain of election, he had to place them where they would do the most good. Six years ago the cards could be distributed at random, for then they could be printed at the rate of 90 cents per 1000. Two years ago the price of picture cards advanced to 7 50 per EOOO. and even then the candidates could afford to give them away. This year the Illus trated cards cost 16 50 per 5000, and he said the candidates must be very econom ical or a majority of them would be with out bank accounts at the end of the cam paign. The cards would, he said, therefore be reserved for the voters, and the boys would have to get along without them. Trustees op Chamber op Commerce to Meet. The trustees of the Chamber of Commerce will meet this afternoon. The Oriental committee will report in favor of an exhibit at the Japanese Exposition at Osaka next year, and will recommend con sideration of ways and means therefor. The committee will also advise a resolu tion for appointment of a permanent of ficer In the American Consular service in the Orient. The duty of this officer would be to collect commercial and Industrial In formation. Great Britain, Germany, Rus sia, Norway and Sweden have such offi cers. The committee will also advise that the co-operation of commercial bodies of other cities- be solicited to this end. Hurryino Repairs on Dredge. The work of overhauling the city dredge, haul ed out at the O. R. & N. Co.'s bone yard, is being pushed as rapidly as possible. Owing to some unavoidable delay, it will not be possible to get the dredge off the ways by June 1st, as was Intended, and It will probably be June 10th before the re pairs are completed and she is ready to be put back into the water. The cause for hurry in the work is that tho river has commenced to rise, and the dredge is only 10 feet above' the water level now. If a hot spell should come on suddenly the water is likely to come up high enough to save any trouble about getting her off the ways. No Trace op Mrs. Geioer. No trace has been found of Mrs. Mamie Francis Gelger since she left the home of her friend, Mrs. A. T. Mowery, April 28. She Bald she was going back to St. Vincent's Hospital, where she had been in attend ance as a nurse for 15 months, but a let ter which she sent back to her friend showed she had other plans. Those who knew her arc slow to believe that she has committed suicide and say that she was bright and happy and had no reason for wishing to end her life. Every other 1 possible explanation of her disappearance, however, has been exhausted and suicide seems the only solution of the mystery. Clearing Columbia Park. Park Com missioner Fleckensteln, who has been looking after tho work of clearing Co lumbia Park, said yesterday that the tract would soon be free from underbrush. When the work Is completed roads will if be laid out and entrances will be arranged. At present there Is only one entrance, and that Is located at the railway station. In the course of a couple of weeks gates will ho placed In various parts of the bound aries of the parks, and when the roads are laid out city drivers may enter the tract from almost any street or boulevard.

The Love tract has been offered as a site for the 1M5 fair. In a more detailed proposal. The tract is on the Vancouver road, adjoining Piedmont and Woodlawn. It comprlsos 200 acres, five of which, on tho Vancouver road, would be given to the city. Tho land Is a part of an area of 753 acres. Of late years the whole area has been taxed as one piece In amounts as follows: 1899, 1.572.36: 1900. 1.497.89; 1901, 1.5058. The 200 acre tract, therefore, pays taxes In about the proportion of 200 to 753. T. T. Struble, who makes the proposal, says no terms have been set on the prop erty contiguous to the 200 acres. He offers to sell the tract at SZOD an acre, one third of the price to be in cash, the bal ance payable in five years at 6 per cent. Readt for Salmon Rraf. Colonel Har rington, of Pillar Rock Cannery, Is in the city. He says there Is but little improve ment in the run of salmon yet. They are receiving about 2 tons per day at his cannery, mostly from the men. The largest catch In a day so far was 220 pounds at Oliver sands a day or two ago. The gillnet men have not all got down the river yet. some are still flshlntr In the Willamette, but now that the river Is beginning to rise, they will hurry down as roily water is good for gillnet fishing, but bad for seiners. Their theory Is that when the water Is clear the fish see tht elne and are npt afraid of it. but keep backing away from It till they are sur rounded by It. If the water Is roily and they run against the seine they are scared and dart away In every direction, and es cape. When the water is roily and the salmon run against a gillnet they try to push through It, the meshes being larger than the seine, and they push themselves In far enough to be caught which 1b what the glllnetter desires. The meshes In the seines are not large enough for any thing, but small salmon to "gill" them selves In. Most all net men nowadays have two sets of nets, ono for large fish and one that will catch a 10-pound Chin ook or even a large blue back. In short, about every possible precaution Is taken with traps, seines and gill nets to catch the salmon "a comln' or a gwine," and If possible to let no guilty fish escape. Just when the big school of salmon will be along no one can tell, but all are watching to find out Start Fires in Custom House. Collec tor of Customs Patterson win have tho fire started up In the furnace in the now Custom House today. In oider to dry out the rooms. As soon as this has been accomplished, the laying of the car pets will be commenced and then the fur niture, a large part of which is stored In the building, will be distributed to the rooms for which It Is Intended. Collector Patterson will then move his office into the building, and be ready to receive the other occupants as they arrive. The Weather Bureau will probably be the next to move in, but It appears to he undecided as yet whether the U. S. Engineer offices will move in or not. They have been as signed the rooms Intended for the U. S. Courts; but the Court prefers to stay In his present quarters, and the Engineers wants a lot of changes made in the large, lofty rooms assigned to them before they care to occupy them. It looks as If the plans for the Custom House had been prepared without consulting with the pro posed occupants. A Perfect Life Insurance Policy. The latest policy contract of the Equit able Life Is the most liberal ever issued by any company. The value of the policy increases every year, whether tho Insur ed lives or dies, and In tho event of fail ure to pay premiums, after three- years, the policy remains In full force for ten years longer, should death occur during that time no deduction Is made for the unpaid premiums.
