The citizens of South Portland who have undertaken the Job o securing: the fllllngin of First street across Jlarquam Gulch are still working earnestly to carry out the scheme. The sight of the bridge at Sec ond street, which appears likely to fall at any moment, and the barricade across the First-street bridge keep them up to their work, for their part of the city is suffering on account of the lack of good roadways or bridgee across this gulch. A committee consisting of "William Filed ner, E. Werleln and F. Hacheney lately waited on the City Engineer to see what he could do to better the condition of the bridges. Ho said that If the people of that part of the city would furnish the lumber the city would repair First street bridge at once. The people are not In favor of this., as they are hoping to secure a permanent improvement. It would take $500 worth of lumber and la bor to put the bridge In a safe condition for travel, and in about a year and a half it would be about as had as ever. As several citizens of South Portland were examining Flret-street bridge a few days ago two Eastern men came along and asked why there were not steel bridges across the gulch. They were told that it was hard work to get wooden ones, but they were in hopes of having a fill at First street instead of a bridge before long. One of them said the gulch ought to have been made Into a park, and there ought to be a steel bridge instead of a fill. He was told that his idea was a novel one, but came too late. The citizens who have the matter in hand will without doubt succeed in having First street filled in across the gulch. Invited to Walla Walla Fruit Fair. -The Walla Walla Valley Fruit Fair has I Invited Portland citizens to go to that city on September 27, which has been 6et aside as "Commercial day." The man- u?ement of the fair has sent to the Cham- Iber of Commerce of this city a letter say- ling that trade relations between Portland I and the Interior would be benentea Dy me visi The chamber has called the matter I to the attention of the merchants of the citv. The entertainment committee Is ar ranging transportation rates with the O. IR & N. "Two years ago, says tne let- Iter from the fair management, "the Port land Chamber of Commerce paid us a visit, and we think the wholesale mer chants of your city did more on that oc casion to build up trade than individuals have done by private visits." Merchanta from South Tacoma and Spokane will I also be present. Twenty-third Street Improvement. As the Council has directed the City En gineer to prepare plans and specifications for the proposed improvement of Twenty third street, from Washington to Thur- iman, a distance of about a mile, by pav ing with vitrified brick, property-owners on that street are quite certain that the scheme will be carried out. The Portland Railway ComDanv has expressed a will ingness to put in tracks of heavy grooved rails on the street If it is to bo paved With brick. Washington street will soon "be permanently Improved, and if Twenty- I third street is paved with brick it wul be the first step toward getting five or six streets in proper shape for the Lewis and Clark Fair. Water Main Xuud in Seventh Street. The laying of the 10-lnch water main in Seventh street has been completed from Salmon to Morrison. This main is being put in principally for Are protection, and the Fire Department will put in some 2a hydrants along it. The gas company has a main in the street as far north as Stark, and is taking advantage of the street being torn up to put in connections with lots on both sides of the street. The Trinidad Asphalt Company will now be able to make a start on its contract for paving Seventh street from Taylor north, as the hlock between Taylor and Yamhill is" open to them to begin opera tions on.

New Street Displeases Frank Hach eney The opening of Kelly street from Abernethy south across TerwIUlger Park, so as to connect with Bancroft avenue, has proved rather an unfortunate Im provement for Frank "Hacheney, on tho east side of whose residence block It runs. The principal object of opening this piece of street to travel is to give members of the Driving Association a chance to reach Macadam street by driv ing out Kelly to Bancroft avenue, and from there down the hill, thus striking Macadam street some distance out and avoiding the crowd of heavy teams of all sorts which constantly throng the north end of it. There Is quite a heavy grade from Macadam street up to Kelly street, but this will not trouble drivers of bug gles and carriages, and will prevent heavy traffic from taking this route Into or out of the city, so leaving It clear for those driving for pleasure. The Improvement was favored by Mr. Hacheney. who prob ably had not ascertained what the grade of the street past his property was to be. There might have been a fill at this point, but there was not and a cut was made, and when this was completed Mr. Hach eney's property had -a bank along the east front 17 feet in height. When a por tion of this bank fell down Mr. Hach eney began to wish the street had not been improved, and when he was notified to move his barn, which stands on the east side of his block, so that It might not tumble over into the street, he was wrathy. It did him no good, for tho street was built, and will have to stay, and It looks as If a high stone wall will be necessary to keep his property from sliding down into It. Railroad Men at Seattle. At a meet ing of the Pacific Coast Association of Traffic Agents, District No. 1. at Seattle on Saturday, It was decided hereafter to meet not lees than six times a year to discuss the handling of Coast business. A. B. C. Dennlston, of the Great Northern, was elected local chairman, and Harry Ballou, of the Northern Pacific, secretary and treasurer. The following were pres ent from this city and elected to mem bership: E. P. Walte, of the Great Northern; W. C. Seachrest, of the Van derbilt lines; C. C. Tougee. of the Illi nois Central; H. L. Sisler. of the North western; Robert Lee, of the O. R. & N.; Guy L. Sweeny, of the Great Northern; Webb F. Sater, of the Northern Pacific; N. A. Roberts, of the O. R. Sf. N.. and JV O. Mullen, of the Northern Pacific. The next meeting of the association will be held in Tacoma on November 21. At that meeting papers will be read by the fol lowing members from Seattle: H. A. Kyer, F. W. Parker, H. J. O'Nell, H. M. Boyd and Percy Sinclair. The annual meeting will be held at Ashland, Or., on February 22. At that meeting a selection will be mado of a design for a button for the members. Each member will be expected to submit a design to be voted upon. Travels of an Elevator Boy. "I have been counting up the number of passengers we handle every day," said an elevator boy In one of the down-town office buildings yesterday. "The other day when there was no especial rush tho two cages carried 17S9 passengers. That will surprise many people, but it is simply a very ordinary day's business. One ele vator runs all night, and as the length of the shaft is about 110 feet, and as tho two elevators during the day and the one at night make about 1200 trips, that makes 132,000 feet, or exactly 25 miles. That seems still more surprising, doesn't it? I have not yet estimated the number of tons of humanity that we carry daily, but when that is figured Tip that will also be surprising." Smoke Benefited Oculists. The long continued spell of smoky atmosphere has been very injurious to weak and worn eyes, and oculists and opticians have been gainers on this account. Not only has the smoke injured the eyes, but the dim light it has been responsible for has caused a straining of weak eyes, and the conse quence has been many sales of smoked gloss spectacles and "also many long-distance glasses for use out doors only, as when one cannot see so far as usual he Imagines his eyes are falling- and rushes oft to buy long-distance glasses. Every body will be glad Jthat the smoke is gone, but those whose eyes are not sound and strong have particular reason to rejoice. Funeral of W. H. Wetzell. T ne late W. H. Wetzell was buried yesterday af ternoon from the Edward Holman under taking parlors by the "Volunteer Exempt Firemen's Association In the Volunteer Firemen's Association plot in Lone Fir cemetery.

MINES IN BOHEMIA DISTRICT Three Stamp 31111b Running and Railroad Will Soon Reach Tlicm. "There are more men at work in the Bohemia mining district this year than thero over were before," said James Hemenway, a merchant of Cottage Grove, who is at the Belvedere. "There are three stamp mills running, at the Helena, Mustek and Champion, all owned by the Oregon Securities Company, and 20 teams are employed in hauling ore and concen trates to the end of the railroad. "The Knob mine, the original mine of tho district, s again in operation. The Lc Roy company has put in the first steam drill of the district on its group of eight or 10 claims, and is developing it fully. The Hiawatha is doing lots of work, and the Judson Rock, Crystal Con solidated and Happy Jack, In which I am interested, are also In operation. The ore is free milling on the surface, but be comes base at depth. The greatest depth has been gained in the levels of the Muslck, which is down about 400 feet, but the Helena Is down about as far. "The Oregon & Southeastern Railroad Is completed for about 12 miles from Cottage Grove and about 10 miles more will be fin ished this year. It will be about 3S miles long and will be entirely finished next year. A carloatt of ore was shipped from the Helena last Winter which assayed $310 and netted $250 a ton. Shipments will be much heavier when the road reaches the mines. "A company with a capital of 13,000,000 has been organized In the East by P. J. Jennings, of the Oregon Securities Com pany, to cut a tunnel a mile and a quar ter long from the head of Champion Basin through Grouse Mountain to tap the Helena and Muslck and bring the ore to the terminus of the railroad. This road will also have tributary to it a great belt of timber, equal to any district in the state, and has a rich farming coun try around Cottage Grove." REGISTRATION WEEK.

William Dills Young- Mr. Slkes Stockslow Howard Russell Julius Robert Blddlo Mrs. Huldah Dangery Mlna Oleason Orlana Elspeth Graham McNeill Daisy Griding Elsie Esmond Betsey , .... Lillian Bhoads Nancy Brasher Cathrlne Countlss A merry comedy played with vim and spirit is at the Baker Theater this week. "Nancy & Co." Is old and well known, but It has the best points of Daly's genius, which lay in the simplest possible plot with the most comical and unexpected sit uations. Ebenezer Grlfflng tries to man age the love affairs of two young women, his daughter and his niece, by an ex tremely minute personal supervision; also Mr. Tippy Brasher, his friend, has a wife who is writing for the stage. Mrs. Brash er's coadjutor In preparing her play for the stage is Mr. Klefe O'Kelfe, the lover of Orlana. The consequent complications must be seen to be appreciated. Mr. Bernard did much better than he did in "Lady Windermere's Fan," good as his work was In that play. He has a part, perhaps, more suited to his humorous ability, though 'certainly - worth serious effort at times. Mr. Bernard's face is his fortune sometimes, notably when he has opportunity for his brilliant smile. Tippy Brasher, Mr. Wyngate's role, gives plenty of chance for rushing around and tearing of the hair. Mr. Wyngate does all this very well. But he cannot be too often reminded that his voice has some exceed ingly disagreeable tones that should be better controlled. The two difficulties that he contends with are poor enunciation and harshness of tone. It will be worth his while to correct both these defects, for they are a serious drawback on the pleas ure afforded by his competent acting. Mr. Russell and Mr. SIddle both performed their parts efficiently. Miss Gleason made a good background for tho work of Miss Countlos and Miss Eomond. Miss CountlES role called for great variety, and she gave it too liber ally at times. Yet, taken altogether, her playing last night was quite worth see ing; she has some clever scenes, and they are not too far apart. Miss Esmond was charming as ever, with a piquancy of voice that she will do well to employ oftener. Miss Esmond has marly graces, but she seems too niggardly to display more than one at a time. In Orlana, MIsb McNeill was reserve. There are possibili ties in the role that she did not see at all. Miss Rhoads, as the maid, would better not count too much on her former refer ences. The curtain went up at both perform ances with promptness, and the orchestra played well. The whole play Is good, and the company fully deserved the enthusi astic and repeated applause bestowed upon them. "Nancy & Co." will run the rest of the week. shorthand courses, besides the courses In mechanical and electrical engineering, and those for plumbers and builders. DR. E. R. DILLE ON Y. M. C. A. Oakland Minister Speaks of the Les sons of Experience. Dr. E. R. Dille, the pastor of the First M. E. Church, of Oakland, Cal., deliv ered an address on the "Lessons of Ex perience," at the Y. M. C. A. yesterday afternoon. Dr. Dllle has been at Seattle for several days, and leaves tomorrow for Salem. He preached last evening In tho Taylor-Street Church. "Experience," said the speaker, "strengthens the mind, forms the charac ter and molds the thoughts. The great teachers in the school of experience are sorrow, pain, and good honest hard work, drudgery, if you wish to call It. The les sons are plainly Ehown, but we may ap ply It any way we please, and it depends upon ourselves whether or not we profit by the lessons." In speaking of the peculiar way In which some painful experience may shape tho future life of a person, ho spoke "of the death of Florence Crlttenton as In fluencing her father to take up the great work, which he has done in memory of his daughter. John Bright, the great English statesman, said he was also changed in his after life by an experience of this kind. Jacob he cited as an example of how tho sins of youth will be returned again In old age. ' "What ye sow that shall ye also reap," he concluded. PASTORS SAY THEIR FAREWELLS. Last Services Before Annual Confer ence Held in Methodist Churches. Last services before the annual confer ence were held yesterday in the Metho dist Episcopal churches. V Rev. H. B. El worthy, ex-pastor of the Sunnyslde Meth odist Church, held his first services in the First Church, of Goldendale, Wash., yesterday, having been transferred to the Columbia River conference. This action leaves the Sunnyslde Church vacant to be supplied by a new man. At Centenary Methodist Rev. W. B. HollIng8head spoke his final words to his congregation. His has been a very suc cessful year in all respects. The church has had a mo6t prosperous and progres sive year. A unanimous request will go to conference for the return of Mr. Hol llngshead, and hence no change is ex pected at Centenary. Dr. Alfred Thompson, of Trinity Metho dist, delivered his farewell message last evening. This church has enjoyed a prosperous year. It is considered prob able that Dr. Thompson may be returned. This evening the fourth and last quar terly conference for tho year will be held In the Central Methodist Church, of Al blna. This will be the wind-up of the business of the year. The return of Rev. W. T. Kerr, who Is finishing his fourth year, will no doubt be asked for. Steps have been taken to pay off the remainder of the debt on this church by tho first of the year. Colonel John Sobieskl has been engaged to deliver three lectures the last of October. J. W. Powell, of Buffalo, famous as a debt-payer, will come to the assistance of the Central Church In Jan uary, when It Is hoped that every dol lar will be pay off. The programme will be carried out, no matter who Is made pastor. Patton and Woodlawn Methodist Churches, which have been administered by one pastor the past year Rev. Andrew Monroe will be separated the coming year, and each will have a pastor. Both are in good financial condition. All be nevolences and current expenses have been paid to date, and there are no debts. On the Woodlawn Church improvements costing about $375 have been made and paid for. The work of Mr. Monroe on these two charges for the past three years has been excellent. At the fourth quarterly meeting of the Patton Church it was decided to ask that a pastor be sent there Independent of Woodlawn, and it will probably be done. Dr. L. E. Rockwell will doubtless re main presiding elder of the Portland dis trict, where he has been for the past two years. Since he has been presiding elder he has encouraged, and Insisted that the churches pay off their debts, and' a large number have done so. This year there has been a great gain along this line. There also have been losses. The manse at Grcshnm and the church property at Palmer were swept away by fire. Pro vision will be made to make up these losses as soon as possible. There Is a possibility that Rev. W. T. Kerr, pastor of the Central Methodist Church, of Albina, may be put on the Eu gene district, provided Mr. Ford, of that ""Lost, ia New York."

Bennett Mr. Wilson-. .Dora Hastings Susie Petite Baby Brown The old pliy, "Lost In New York," Is one that Is still enjoyed by many. The company now playing It at Cordray'a Theater gives a fair representation of it in its main features. There Is all the old mixture of wealth, misery, crime, revenge, trickery and honesty, well staged and pretty well played. The star of the ca$t la undoubtedly Nettle DeCoursey, who acts tho soubrette In that good old style familiar to our childhood. Such slang, such unaffected goodness, such cleverness, such brilliancy of Invention, such desire to be good that character has thrilled many before and will thrill many to come. Tat tered and torn, beset with troubles suffi cient to overwhelm a stoic, let alone a soubrette. Miss DeCoursey turns up at the end of the act with a song and a smile. Her song is good and her smile is sweet. Who dare complain?. Next to Nettle DeCoursey, Baby Brown makes tho greatest hit. She goe3 through her part very nlqsly for one so diminutive. The villains In the play are sufficiently villainous, and Mr. Leonard as Arthur Wilson acts fairly well. He has ease and a good manner and a not unduly rasping voice. Mr. Cowley, as Hackensack George, wakes a doubt In the mind of the specta tor whether he is really a safe person to leave abroad, even out of character, he is so fearfully a deep-dyed, rakehelly knave. Miss Leonard as Caroline Peabody does enough to fill her part. Those who see this play the remainder of the week will be greeted by a freshly tiled entrance. Mr. Cordray has gone to some pains to make this work artistic, and tho effect is very pleasing. 'Lost in New York" all this week. Tonight at the Marquam. Stanley Weyman's romantic play, "Un der the Red Robe," will be the bill pre sented at the Marquam Grind Theater to night by Mr. James Neill and his excel lent company. There ls. certain tone of individuality In all of Mr. NelU's produc tions which very few other theatrical companies achieve. ThlB is said to be particularly noticeable In the production of "Under the Red Robe," which will be the offering of tho first two nights of Mr. NelU's second week's engagement. district, retires. This Is by no means a certainty. Central Church wants Mr. Kerr to come back there, and will send a strong petition to the conference con yeying its desires. The annual conference will convene lh Ashland Wednesday, the 24th. Most of the Portland pastors will start for Ash land today or tomorrow. DRUG CLERK MISSING. E. W. Molten Has Hot Been Seen Since Friday Night. E. W. Molles, a clerk with F. Byerly, druggist, has not been seen slnco Friday evening. Mr. Byerly is quite at a- loss to account for the disappearance of the young man. "He left everything perfectly straight," said he. "He simply went out for dinner at 6:15 Friday night and was to have been back by 7:15. He left the key to the store, which he usually carried with him. He was an exceedingly quiet, re served fellow, good habits and demeanor. He came here from St. Louis about three months ago and lived, I think, on Park and Morrison. He has a brother at Ellensburg, Wash., I hear, and ho may have gone there." PERSONAL MENTION. Roy McDaniel, of Baker City, Is at the Portland. I. S. Kaufman, a Spokane mining man, is at the Perkins.
