BURGLARS' SMALL HAUL.
Thieves Track Eilvrnrd Shields Home,
lut His Sack Was Downtown.
Fastidious burglars broke Into Mr. Bon
durant's house, 181 Thirteenth street, yes
terday morning about 2 o'clock, and after
sampling the various articles they came
across, walked off with $7, after leaving
the plunder they discarded "at the rear of
the Dekum house, on the other side of
Yamhill street- Edward Shields, the pro
prietor of Shields' Park, lives with Mr.
Bondurant, and the police have reason to
believe that the robbers tracked Mr.
Shields home and afterward entered the
rooms In the hope that they would some
how run across the "sack" containing the
drawings of the performances at Shields'
Park. But luck was against them, as It Is
Mr. Shields Invariable practice to deposit
his mammoth drawings In a downtown
safe every night before he7 goes home.
After this, however, he will be guarded
on the way home by his dog. which will
attend to all marauders. Mr. and Mrs.
Bondurant were asleep when the burglars
came through the window, which had been
left open on account of the hat, and the
robbers picked up a gold nugget, valued
at $17, several articles of clothing, a watch
and $7 In money. As the thieves were go
ing out, however, on the return Journey,
Mrs. Bondurant was awakened by some
slight noise they made, and she observed
one midnight visitor In the act of making
his escape.
"Burglars." she whispered, shaking her
husband. The latter hurriedly dressed and
went out to take a view of the burglars,
but by this time they had disappeared.
Just then a report was heard as If some
one was firing a revolver. Officer Branch
was found, and on being told of the robbery-
he made a search around the neigh
borhood and found the gold nugget, the
clothing and the stolen watch at the rear
of the Dekum house. But the $7 In money
was gone.

WATER SUPPLY SHORT
CONSUMERS IN HIGH SERVICE DIS
TRICT OX EAST SIDE COMPLAIN.
Water Committee Will Lny a Mile of
20-Inch Pipe, bat That Helps
Little Now.
There is much complaint by residents of
Sunnyslde, Irvington and other portions of
the high-water service on the East Side
on account of shortage of water at this
time. It may be said that the water
committee has made provisions for sup
plying the high service with an abund
ance of water. A 20-lnch water-pipe has
been ordered to be laid on Marguerite
avenue through Sunnyside to East Stark
street, thence to East Twenty-eighth
street and on East Twenty-eighth street
to about Oregon street. One mile of this
pipe has been ordered Idld for the pres
ent. Work will start on Ihis pipe line as
soon as tho 14-Inch main "now being laid
on East First street Is completed. This
latter main will likely be completed this
week. While but one mile of this 20-lnch
main is to be laid at present. It will final
ly be continued to Russell street and
Union avenue, and further when required.
The pipe for the main is being manufac
tured at the Oswego Iron Works, and will
probably be delivered the latter part of
this month.
While this main may not afford much
relief for Irvington. It will Improve all the
higher service to a great extent. It will
relieve all of Sunnyslde and the district
at least north to Sullivan's Gulch, improve
the service through Central East Portland,
and incidentally Improve the service north
oC the gulch.
The growth of tho East Side Is Indi
cated In the great demand for water
mains In every direction. The demand Is
much greater than can be suppfled. With
labor agitation out of the way. building
operations have been reoumed, and the
remainder of the year promises to make
up to some extent the losses In the first
half.

IMPROVED MAIL SERVICE.
With Horse and Cart Monnt Tabor
Carrier Makes Prompt Delivery.
The Improved mall service In the free
delivery district at Mount Tabor. Is appre
ciated by the residents. Since the carrier
was supplied with a horse and cart, which
were furnished last week, he has been
able to cover much more territory and
make more prompt delivery. He tnakes
one complete delivery per day.
While It may be aorno time before an
other carrier will be given the district, it
will probably come after a time. Mail
comes out there twice a day, but the car
rier makes one round a day. One of the
Inspectors says that there should be two
deliveries dally. But the people will not
complain very much over the present ser
vice, which Is very satisfactory.
Trnct Laid. Ont.

MAN VERSUS WOMAN.
What Is Finery Pnt on for, Unless
It Is to Be Admired f
HILLSBORO, Or.; July 18. (To the Ed
itor.) Mrs. W. H. Barry, armed with a
question mark and a scatter gun, does
some execution in your issue of the 18th
Inst. And why not hit something when
there is so much game to shoot at. In
sizes from a microbe to a mastodon? The
faults and peculiarities of mere men are
fired at at random and unavoidably hit
on account of numbers.
Would that there were some superior
beings on earth to expound the case of
man vs. woman and show for what they
are already suffering and will suffer for.
The preponderance of males at the Poor
Farm as accounted for by the editor Is the
source of all this affection for said ed
itor, who, with the scales removed from
his eyes, beholds the truth blazing like
the noonday sun. The rest of the affec
tion Is probibly Intended for others. Prob
ably If the editor had said females pre
ferred working and starving and suffer
ing to "support some l&zy brute of a male
rather than go to the almshouse as a
reason for their absence, there might be
missiles other than bouquets flying around
his head. It Is possible, too, thit females
prefer the madhouse to the poor farm.
As to silliness, we doubt If any editor
In his most reckless moods would grant
females any monopoly In that. A male
with the latest brand of that commodity
can hypnotize all females within range of
his deadly Influence: The best education
of two continents will avail nothing
against It and consigns Its owner to a
sit down way back with the wall-flowers
and has-beens.
Suppose we term .our so-called under
standing of art as expressed In pictures
of nude females as a yearning for the
natural, that almost forgotten element.
Whatever It Is, It saves redaublng the
canvas every turn of the moon with new
plumage, the latest creations and crazes,
In order to be up to date. The clothes
rack don't change like the clothes, so let
us have the rack tho tangible reality.
But then there are male clothes racks,
too.
In the new order of things, are females
to spend everything they make, or can
get from their husbands, on dress and
flnery and not to be observed and ad
mired as they pass by males? Such wast
od effort Is appalling, to think of. But
there may be an ecstacy In wearing a
delirium of paraphernalia. We don't
know, poor fools.
The writer has no quarrel with any one.
and he rejoices that such momentous
questions are discussed, as It gives light
artillery a chance to do Its part.
HOMO.
WHY NOT PAY REWARD?
Plen In Behr.lf of Mrs. WngRoner,
Who Fonnd Merrill's Body.
PORTLAND. Or..July 20. (To the Ed
itor.) I have been waiting for some one
to take up the cause of Mrs. Waggoner,
the discoverer of Convict Merrill's body.
The terms of settlement tendered by Su
perintendent J. D. Lee, of the peniten
tiary, are an Insult to Mrs. Waggoner and
the people of Oregon and" worthy of pro
test. The escape, of the convicts was un
fortunate and the people have been gen
erous In withholding criticism. It Is, how
ever, too bad that Mrs. Waggoner must
apply for the reward to the man upon
whom the onus for these escapes falls.
Naturally, his wish Is to minimize the ex
pense of his mistakes.
I believe that I voice the sentiment of
the majority of the people of Oregon when
I say that she Is entitled to the full $1500,
less costs for returning body. I have
not heard one expression to the contrary.
If the reward Is Ignored In one case it
may be In another (especially if a woman
should return Tracy), and the example In
the M?rrlll case must be discouraging to
the members of the posse now after Tracy.
Suppose Tracy should be Wiled while in
a bpat, and his body lost In Puget Sound,
will his slayer receive any reward?
Why was the reward offered? Not for
death; that Is Inadequate. Capture alone
Is Insufficient, but the great requirement
and the purpose of the capture and re
ward is the return to Salem. Yea, return
return dead or alive but- return. Why
return? Because Oregon must convince
her prisoners that none canmurder their
legal guards and escape swift punishment,
and because the graves at Salem of Mer
rill now and of Tracy later will always
bo mute but decisive proof that in Ore
gon law and order are supreme, even over
murderous convicts, Hence the value to
the state of the return of either Merrill
or Tracy Is above computation In dollars
and cents. Oregon must be above suspi
cion of dishonesty by quibbling over a
word. We all know that the object sought
was the return of the convicts, dead or
alive, and as Mrs. Waggoner has returned
Merrill's body, she Is entitled to the re
ward. It Is hoped (hat Governor Geer, in
good Judgment, will take a broader view
than that of Mr. Lee and see that no doubt
exists, that right and Justice shall prevail
in this case by ordering tho payment to
Mrs. Waggoner of the fail amount of the
reward. W. H. LESH.

)'
Some people want "the best at any
price." To such we would commend for
their thoughtful consideration and recom
mend In tne highest terms the renowned
Chickerlng piano. The most extravagant
words of praise could not do Justice to
this superb Instrument. It is a piano that
will last a lifetime, and while it Is a
little more expensive than most pianos,
the extra satisfaction that It gives will
far more than compensate for the addi
tional cost.
Those who cannot afford to pay so much
for a piano and who still desire the best,
will be Interested in the liberal terms that
we make on the Hobart M. Cable pianos.
We will allow you to take your choice of
our extensive line of these beautiful In
struments, pay us $10.00 down and $S.0O per
month. Or, if you wish to test the piano
to prove that all we claim for It and more
Is true, we will allow you to rent any
new piano, pay us the cartage and $4.00
a month. After a time, If you are satis
fied with your Instrument, you may re
tain It, and we will allow you on its pur
chase price all you have paid us for cart
ago and rent. If you are dissatisfied with
It, you ma return it at any time, and
all you will be out Is the rent. $4.00 a
month and cartage, and even then your
payments may apply toward any other
piano j-ou may desire. This Is an Ideal
plan for those who cannot afford or do
not wish to make a cash purchase. Ellers
