TVht the Man "Was Brave. A broken
circuit -which shut oft the current from
several street lamps Tuesday evening was
located by the line foreman in a lamp at
Thirteenth and Washington streets, and
he proceeded at once to lower the- lamp In
order to fix the connection. In starting
down the lamp swung a little to one side,
closing the circuit, and as it swung back,
in breaking the connection, an arc of
llame was pulled, several inches in length,
which set fire to a sparrow's nest In the
hood of the lamp. The blaze of the straw
and other material in the nest quickly at
tracted a crowd, and many of them,
women especially, were greatly alarmed
for the safety of the foreman, who con
tinued lowering the lamp, and there -was
quite an excitement around him, the
women demanding that he be made to
go away from the lamp before the cur
rent struck him and killed him. Of course,
he knew his huslness and was in no dan
ger, and when the lamp came within
reach it was put to rights by a touch of
his finger. He still feels complimented by
the Interest the women evinced in his wel
fare, and attributes It to his good looks
and winning ways.
"What His Wife Discovered. A busi
ness man who had occasion to drive out
on the Marquam Gulch road a few miles
yesterday took his wife along for com
pany. They were only a short distance
from the head of Sixth street, in an Ital
ian colony, when the man was startled by
his wife saying in a tone of horror: "Oh,
John! there Is the body of a child hanging
on the picket fence Just ahead!" He
looked and saw a pink-colored object
which did look like the body of a child,
but he told his wife that It must be a
small pig' -which had Just been bought
from a countryman. The nearer they
came to It the more like a human being
the object appeared, till at last it was
seen to be the body of a huge papier
mache doll as big as a child a year old.
It was a grewsome-looklng thing to be
hanging on a fence by the public high-
jvay, and the grinning Italian who came
out and offered to sell It was advised to
put It out of sight and not be scaring de
cent people with it.
Mr. Cook's Dweujno.-The block be
tweeen 1 Fourth and Fifth, Hall and
College streets is being- cleaned up
and the one house on the north
west corner Is undergoing an over
hauling and having some changes made
Inside. The property is owned by J. W.
and Vln Cook, and probably will be occu
pied by the latter. One of the items of
the clearing up Is the removal of a huge
billboard which has for a long time
closed access to the east end of the block.
Its remqval adds much to the appearance
of the property. On this block 30 years
ago was the residence of A. C. R. Shaw,
then superintendent of the State Peniten
tiary. There is a large walnut tree in the
center of the block, the trunk of which Is
two feet in diameter, and on the east half
of the block there is an old orchard, prob
ably planted by Mr. Shaw, In which Is a
very large apple tree and some large
cherry trees. The property has been
owned by the Messrs. Cook for about 25
years.
Mb, Harrington' b New Role. J. X. -M.
Harrington, of Pillar Rock, who has late
ly completed his 26th and most prosperous
year in the salmon-packing business. Is
determined to "press his luck," and has
accepted a nomination on the Democratic
ticket for Representative to the Wash
ington Legislature from Wahkiakum
County, in opposition to ex-Senator J. G.
Megler. the Republican nominee. Mr.
Harrington has a very magnificent voice
und a gift In the way of strong speeches,
and his Democratic friends say he should
have a chance to display his oratoricar
powers. Mr. Megler's friends admit that
Harrington is gifted In the use of strong
language, but say that as long as he has
a cannery crew to operate every year
there is no danger of his powers in strong
language or his voice suffering from want
of exercise.
Wr Connins Changed His Mind. Con
siderably under the Influence of liquor,
John Connins felt so warm and thirsty
yesterday morning as he was walking
along the Morrison-street bridge that he
jumped into the river, but the water was
,so cold that he became sober, yelled for
help and clutched at one or the -piers.
Bridgetender Wood heard the splash, and.
accompanied by one of the gate-tenders,
he ran to the assistance of the stranger,
who yelled as soon as he saw his rescuers:
"Take me out; I'm cold!" Connins was
taken to the police station, and later he
appeared before Municipal Judge Hogue,
charged with being drunk, and the case
-was continued to enable the police to
make inquiries about Connins' record.

asked for a room. The proprietor noticed

O'Keefe, calmly. In spite of his pro
testations the police wagon was sent for

In the performance of the old favorite,
"A Bachelor's Romance," Miss Gertrude
Keller won a triumph at the Marquam.
Everyone has seen the play before, and it
added to the enjoyment of the audience
that familiarity gave leisure for pure and
delightful appreciation. Miss Keller has
not had a chance to display her genuine
ability before this week, and the applause
showered on her last night was deserved.
Mr. Nelll himself played beyond his usual
standard. Before the first act was
through it was evident to all that In some
way a new Impulse wa3 stirring him into
acting that breathed of genius. Support
ed In good style by Mr. Burton and Mr.
Bowies, he enacted David Holmes with
verve and sincerity that should have
roused more enthusiasm than it did.
The third act was very well done, in
deed, and It was chastened In Its almost
somber effect, by the tender graclousness
of Miss Keller. Here Mr. Bloomquest was
an excellent foil, and is entitled to credit
for maintaining the personal note In his
work against odds. Miss Chapman was
very graceful In her minor role.
At the professional matinee yesterday
afternoon the actors of the city saw Mr.
Nelll and his company in their final per
formance in Portland of "The Red
Knight" Tomorrow evening will be pre
sented "Prince Karl," and the rest of the
week. Including a Saturday matinee, "The
Starbucks" will be .given.
PHIL ROGOWAY BACK.
Prepared to Settle "With Creditor!
and "Wants to Do Better.
After leaving town suddenly last July,
to the regret of his creditors, Phil F.
Rogoway, ex-Deputy License Collector,
has returned to Portland, and states that
during his absence he ha worked at Ju
neau, Alaska, accumulating money with
-which to satisfy his creditors' claims.
Rogoway called at The Oregonian office
yesterday and said he desired to make, this
statement:
"I am determined to make a fresh start
In life. My friends are willing to help
me. T wish to state that I have not been
a fugitive from justice, and that I have
robbed nobody. I left Portland because It
was the best thing I could do at the time.
I had been associating with evil com
panions, and had been taught to gamble.
I had never gambled before. I bought a
ticket to Juneau, Alaska, and with this
ticket and 30 cents I left town, arriving
at Jueau July 10.
"In Juneau I worked 22 hours a day to
make money so that I could come back to
Portland and settle. I worked in a barber
shop In the day and cleaned saloons at
night, and did everything I could to raise
money. With -what I earned and with the
assistance of my wife I was able to re
turn to Portland. All my debts have either
been paid or will be Immediately. I do
not wan to owe any one a dollar. It
has been said that I took money belonging
to the city when I was in the 'license de
partment. This is false. I never took a
cent for a license but what was turned
into the City Treasury. It has also been
stated that I tpok money belonging to
Fleckenstein, Mayer & Co. There Is no
truth In this, and Mr. Mayer cannot show
that I ever robbed the firm of a nickel.
After I had' resigned I borrowed money
and ran inf;o debt, and It is these accounts
I am settling. There was nothing crimi
nal about tho matter at all. I have made
money and want to make a new start in
life. I am paid up In all the orders to
which I belong, and hope I retain the
good-will of my friends. I appreciate my
mistakes, and wish to do better."
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"Prince Knrl". at Marqnam Tonight.
Richard Mansneld's comedy success,
l'Prlnce Karl," will be the play presented

-will be given, each lady attending will be
presented with n handsome souvenir of
Mr. Nelll and Miss Edythe Chapman.
"Lost in Xew York" nt Cordrny's.
"Lost in New York" will prove to be
one of the dramatic treats of the season.
The play is one of the kind that appeals
to all lover? of what is good in the dra
matic line, and tells a story of life in a
great city. The characters are such as
will be found In all towns of Importance,
and embrace a tramp who Is funny, a
policeman who Is never found lacking, a
wdman who is blind, and has more hard
ships that are usually allotted to women,
and also a child who is dear to all moth
ers' hearts. There are several others, all
Interesting characters, who help to make
the production one of the most popular
American plays. "Lost In New York"
-will commence at Cordray's next Sunday
night.
"Xn'ncy & Co." at Baker's.
"Laugh and the world laughs "with you."
This will be the rule at the Baker Theater
next Sunday afternoon, -when Augustin
Daly's greatest comedy success, "Nancy
& Co.," will begin a week's run. The
Nelll stock company has made special ar
rangements with the Daly estate to pro
duce this bright comedy. Charles "Vvyn
gate will be seen as Tippy Brasher, a
well-managed husband, giving him an ex
cellent opportunity to display his ability
as a comedian. Catherine Countiss, who
-will be remembered as doing some very
clever comedy work last season, will play
Nancy Brasher, the part that made Ada
Rehan famous in New York City. Mlna
Gleason, Fred Mower, William Bernard
und Elsie Esmond have very good parts.
In fact, there is, not a dull character In the
comedy.
New Tlicnter for Albany.
The opera-house In Albany has been

"A -Tnoro-ighbred Tramp," at Cordray's,
Is a Western melodrama in every sense of
the word. Unlike most of its kind it Is a
fair play and affords a chance for some
good humorous work which pleased the
audience very much last night The title
role' Is In the hands of Mr. Will Wheeler,
who does well and has periods when ho Is
almost Irresistibly tnny. Tho strength
of the cast is on the male side of the
company, ,very decidedly, though Miss
Roth does .passably well as Old 'Rocky's
daughter.
A simplification of the means used to
start a laugh might be very advan
tageously adopted in several scenes. To
tell the exact truth and shame the play
wright, there is so little needed to arouse
the risibilities of the average audience
that vast, effort and pains might be spared
by the actors if they took advantage pf
human weakness. "A Thoroughbred
Tramp" is an excellent example of the
overdoing of what after all Is the easiest
matter In the world. The spectators last
evening were in the mood to enjoy to tho
full all the old jokes and comicalities
that were brought forth for their delec
tation, and It was cruelty on the part of
Mr. Wheeler and Mr. Frankyn to demand
a roar after each witticism. The play has
good, brisk movement and should not be
over-englned. Comedy specialties were
Introduced In each act and diverted the
audience sufficiently. "A Thoroughbred
Tramp" will be continued the rest of the
week.
GIVES ADVICE TO MOTHERS
Madame Davenport Telln Them How
to Preserve Health and Beauty.
Madame De Gohere Davenport, the dis
tinguished European health lecturer and
teacher of physical culture, who has been
lecturing before the Young Woman's
Christian Association, gave her farewell
lecture yesterday afternoon in an address
to mothers in the auditorium of the Y.
M. C. A.
Madame Davenport, who was intro
duced to her audience by Profeesor Rlng
ler, is a French woman of charming per
sonality and of physical attractiveness
and grace. In spite of the fact that she
Is 75 years old, seeming, with her fresh,
smooth complexion and elastic move
ments, not to be a day over 45.
The lecturer opened with the rather
discouraging announcement that there
are very few sensible mothers.
"As an Instance, in the matter of food,
it Is no wonder that we see sallow, nasty '
complexions and that such numbers of
people have Indigestion, when children
are allowed from infancy to consume
quantities of ice cream, cake and boiled
tea.
"You go to clubs and study literature
and what do you know about hygiene?
Don't you think It is well to know more
about your own body and lees about lit
erature? Sickness is a disgrace. I am
over 70 and was never sick In my life.
"American women are good-looking,
there is no dqubt, but they lose their
beauty from the way they fret, worry
and stew from morning till night They
take patent medicines and, presently,
after the patent medicine comes the hos
pital. "Divorce Is becoming very common.
Why? A woman loses her husband be
cause she docs not know how to keep
him. We must be Interesting women, and
we must be strong women, not women of
a hundred and sixty-live diseases. A wise
woman takes care of her health and the
health of her husband. She Is the power
behind the throne."
Madame Davenport strongly Insists
upon physical culture and regular ex
ercise, and recommends the drinking of
plenty of water. The speaker took pains
to illustrate to her hearers the proper
manner of drinking a glass of water.
Madame Davenport asserts that there
is no need of elderly people becoming
stout or stiff, and moved gracefully about
the platform to demonstrate her theory.
Self-Confessed Murderer to De Tried.
WALLA WALLA, Sept. 17. Kellett and
Bradshaw, self-confessed murderers of
Peter Nelson, a Swede, whom they held
up and shot at Pasco, six weeks agoK will
be taken to that place for preliminary ex
amination Friday. They have been in jail
in this county ever since the day after
their crime, when they were captured
here.
To Assist City Fire Department.
ASTORIA, Sept 17. (Special.) The cit
izens 'of that portion of Astoria known
as Uniontown have organized a volunteer
fire company to assist the paid department
in fighting fires In that portion of the
city. The organization will be called the
Elmore Hose Company.
Dysentery Cured Without the Aid of
a Doctor.
"I am Just up from a hard spell of the
flux" (dysentery), says Mr. T. A. Pinner, a
well-known merchant of Drummond, Tenn
"I used one small bottle of Chamberlain's
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy and
was cured without having a doctor, l
consider It the best cholera medicine in
the world." There is no need of employ
ing a doctor when this remedy is used, for
no doctor can prescribe a better medicine
for bowel complaint In any form, either
for children or adults. It never fails, and
is pleasant to take. For sale by all drug
gists. Never fall to cure sick headache, often
the very flrst dose. This Is -what is said
by all who try Carter's Little Liver Pills.

The Portland Optical Institute
does not pretend to fit all comers
with eyewear at uniform prices,
coverr.ed only by the metal in the
frames. No conscientious optician
Joes. Howard works lit a silver
watchcase are worth more than the
Waterbury variety in a gold one.
Specially ground lenses required for
complicated defects of vision, as
tigmatism or muscular deficiency,
for example, cost more, in actual
labor and material to say nothing
of the years of expensive study
needed to fit such cases than ordi
nary spheres used for failing vision
caused by age. The man who
gauges the value of spectacles by
their frame? practically admits that
therein all their value lies. .
