JCelse Erlckson in "Ton Yonson:'
What It Costs to Kill Dccke. From
many places In the Willamette Valley
come reports of grain-fields being: turned
into pools In low places, and country
sportsmen and farmers are looking for a
spell of duck-shooting:. Country people
used to have more duck-shooting a dozen
or 15 years ago, before feeding -wild ducks
with wheat came Into vogue along the
Columbia, and they now often complain
that Portland 'sportsmen monopolize the
duck-shooting of the state. This is not
far from the truth, but probably few
courtry people have any idea of the
amount this shooting costs the city sports
men. The first thing the city man must
secure who desires to enjoy the sport of
shooting ducks is a place to, shoot on
which he can preserve and guard and
keep for his own use. Generally parties
of four or more are made up to lease
shooting preserves, and about every good
duck lake or pond or island where there
Is good duck-shooting, from the mouth of
the Sandy down to Kalama, and even
farther. Is leased year after year by(
sportsmen, in many cases at rather ex
travagant prices. Next quarters where
the watchman who must be employed to
feed the ducks and look after the pre
serve can live, and where the sportsmen
can stay when they go to shoot, must be
provided. This must be furnished with
beds, cooking apparatus, etc., and is gen
erally a comfortable home, with a good
stock of provisions and occasionally a
stock of liquors. Then tons of wheat for
feeding the ducks must be provided, for
without this there will be no ducks shot.
Dogs and guns and much ammunition of
the best quality must be provided, and
transportation to and from the preserve
at suitable times arranged for, and lots
of waterproof clothing, boots; etc, must
be provided. As may be imagined, all
these things and others not mentioned
cost in the aggregate no smalL sum, and
the cost of the ducks killed amounts to
much more than they could be sold for
in the market, but most of the sportsmen
give away their surplus game to friends.
It la understood that the cost of the ducks
killed on one of the most economically
managed preserves where there was good,
shooting last season amounted to over 50
cents each, while on other places, where
there was no attempt to economize, the
cost ran up to ?1 each. On such places
200 and often more ducks are shot every
Sunday, after the shooting is fairly under
way, for several weeks In succession, so
the sportsmen have to pay ,for their
sport more than farmers would care to.
Why Didn't Thet Stop and Find Out?
The passengers on board a street-car
coming down town from the southern part
of the city a few days ago witnessed a
spectacle which has been puzzling them
ever since, without any of them being
able to arrive at any conclusion. What
they saw was three women. In the neigh
borhood of 30 years of age, probably sis
ters, sitting at the top of a rather long
flight of steps leading to the porch of a
cottage. One of them had a large cat in
her arms. A rather large dog stood by
another, who was feeding the brute from
a nursing-bottle In which there was a lot
of milk. As the car passed the bottle was
handed to the woman who had the cat,
and this animal began feeding from it.
The women were all laughing, and even
the dog and cat seemed to feel funny.
Only a glimpse of the crowd was ob
tained as the car passed, but it was' suffi
cient to make all of the party who noticed
the crowd remember the whole and to
ask each other every time they meet,
"Well, have you decided what it all
meant?" and every one has to reply, "I
haven't been able to make it out." Just
why a grown bulldog and a grown cat
should be fed from a nursing-bottle is a
conundrum which might puzzle any out
sider. Begged While Barefooted. An elder
ly Italian woman, Mrs. Angela de Luchl,
was before Municipal Judge Hogue yes
terday, charged with begging from door
to door, and the evidence was that she
made it a -practice on rainy days to re
move her shoes and stockings and beg
barefooted. "This woman has been In
court before, and she was allowed to go
last time," remarked Jailer Roberts. "I
have also heard about this defendant be
fore," said Deputy City Attorney Fitz
gerald. "My Information is that she has
money In some bank and is well fixed
financially. I can't lay my hands on this
data at present, but that's the extent of
my information about her." Rev. Father
Cestelli, of the Italian Church, Interceded
In the woman's behalf, and at the sugges
tion of the Judge ho translated a portion
of the city ordinance against begging into
Italian and made the woman understand
that it is a crime to beg. As Mrs. de
Luchl has no visible means of supporting
herself, and is apparently without rela
tives in this country to assist her, she was
committed to the County Poor Farm.
She was respectably dressed.
To Solicit for Monument Bazaar.
Fifteen committees of the Lone Fir Sol
diers Monument Association began to
solicit aid yesterday for 'the bazaar that
Is to be held December 1 to 9 at MerrIU'3
cyclery, on Sixth street, for the benefit
of the monument fund. These committees
will be glad to receive aid of any kind
money or merchandise all of which will
help to make the benefit a successful ven
ture. The town Is divided into districts,
and each committee has one district, and
it is urgently requested that all who In
tend to help In the matter be ready when
the committee call's.
The Ladies Will Be Pleased. Messrs.
Flledner and Holman have given a new
lease to H. B. LItt for the premises now
occupied by him at the southeast corner
of Fourth and Washington streets. The
new arrangement will include a portion of
the second floor, which will be used as
sitting and fitting-rooms, and also for the
exhibition of evening and street gowns.
These alterations to the building will be
made after Christmas. The windows will
be crowned next week with the trade
mark of H. B. LItt. "
Search for Lester Lewis. Lester
Lewis was being vainly searched for yes
terday by a Postofflce Inspector, to tell
what he knows about the recent robbery
of the postofflce at Tualatin, Washington
County, but without result. A search of
the police records by an Oregorilan re
porter revealed the fact that Lester Lewis
was arrested Monday by Policeman
Thompson, charged with grand larceny,
and was handed to the custody of the
Constable of Clackamas County.
To Speak on Training School. Mrs.
Mabel Hall Gillespie, of Chicago, one of
the prominent workers in the Baptist

No Thanksgiving for the Poor. The
Volunteers of America, through their
local commanding officer. Captain R; B.
Watson, have announced that they wili
not give a Thanksgiving dinner to the
poor this year. In an open letter Captain
Watson gives two reasons for not giving
the dinner. First, It is impossible to
eliminate the unworthy class, such as
salfon bums, loafers and professional beg
gars, as the dinners had heen free to all;
and secondly, the worthy poor, especially
families, will not, with a few exceptions,
accept of public charity and therefore re
main unreached. The Volunteers have,
the letter states, therefore turned their
attention to the homes of the city and
will send boxes of provisions to the poor
families, widows, rheumatics and persons
who have lost an arm or leg. Each box
will contain coffee, tea, roast beef and
all the other accessories to a Thanksgiv
ing dinner and will be furnished at a cost
of $3 50, and the Volunteers ask contri
butions to a fund to pay the expense.
There are. Captain Watson states, 150
helpless. families In the city, so the total
fund required will be $650.
Engineers to Examine Willamette
Falls. The Board of Engineers that Is
to examine the canal and locks at Oregon
City with reference to their acquisition
by the Government is expected to meet
in Portland next week. It is composd
of Major Millis, of Seattle; Captain Lang
fltt, of this city, and Lieutenant Johnson,
of San Francisco. The board will visit
Willamette Falls and ascertain whether
the acquisition of the present canal and
locks, or tho construction of a new canal
and locks by the Government for the
benefit of navigation, would Injure manu
facturing enterprises now In operation or
contemplated there. Much of the data
has already been prepared for considera
tion so it Is not expected that the board
will be long in session. The Portland
General Electric Company now owns the
canal and locks and charges tolls for all
traffic passing through them. Opening
them to free passage of steamers would
be equivalent to adding 50 cents a ton to
all the products tributary to the Willam
ette River.
Death of Mrs. Hannah J. Ginder.
Mrs. Hannah J. Ginder, a pioneer of 1852,
died at the home of her daughter, Mrs.
George H. Kelser, yesterday afternoon at
3 o'clock. She had been sick for some
time and her death was not unexpected.
She was a true Oregon pioneer, having
crossed the plains In 1S52 and was a resi
dent of this city until 1SS3, when she
married William Ginder, of Vancouver,
Wash., where they afterwards resided
until his death. Mrs. Ginder was "born
in Morgan County, Illinois, September 27,
1825. She had lived with her daughter,
Mrs. Keiser, for several .months. She
leaves to mourn her loss four children
one son, James E. Field, a driver of en
gine No. 4, and four daughters: Mary
A. Belford and Katie M. Keiser, of Port
land, and Mrs. Ella V. Knight, of Van
couver, Wash. ;
Veteran Tells Stort of an Assault.
A. H. RIner rapfdly unrolled his war
record yesterday in the Municipal Court
In telling how Wllhelm Becker assaulted
him. "I was born in Kentucky in 1824,
and I served through all the battles of the
Mexican War," began Rlner. "I served
throughout the Civil War, and was a Cap
tain of Artillery. At one of the battles
the ground was like shambles. If I
had had a little more time I would havo
punished this man myself." "Get down
to the evidence you have against the de
fendant," hinted the Judge. "Becker was
full of squirrel whisky, Judge not honest
Kentucky whisky, but mean squirrel
whisky, that makes a man bad. and he
struck me In the face. That's what he
did," responded tho elderly warrior.
Becker was fined J10.
Seeks News of 'Donald R. MacFad
zean. In a letter to The Oregonian Mrs.
MacFadzean, of 15 Kane street. Salt Lake
City, asks for information that would
afford a clew to the whereabouts of her
son, Donald R. MacFadzean, who, she
states, resided In this city for about 14
years. He suddenly ceased writing to her
about t,wo and one-half years ago and
since that time she has been unable to
obtain any trace of him. He has two
children who boarded with a Mrs. Will
lams, who lives somewhere near Portland,
but Mrs. MacFadzean has been unable
to find either her son or the children.
MacFadzean's name does not appear in

PRESIDENT ELIOT'S PIPE-DREAM
Having duly said his "Now-lrlay-me,"
President Eliot, of Harvard, rose up and
deposited himself between the snowy
sheets of his bed late last Monday night.
He was feeling very comfortable.
He had been to the banquet of the Bos
ton Economic Club Jthat evening. He had
eaten heartily. The food, the wine and
the cigars had been of the choicest. More
over, he had dls
. charged himself of
a speech which had
relieved his mind
greatly. All that pal
aver and sentimental
expression over
those rascally labor
unions that had filled
the public mouth of
late how it all had
groveled him! He
had so long been
boiling, now he felt
better.
Hah! He had squelched that fellow at
the banquet that sentimental chump
could see about as deep Into economics as
Into a brick wall.
Ruminating thus, his attention was sud
denly disturbed by a slight cough. Rais
ing up quickly he stared toward, the
window. The .Man With the Hoe was
standing dimly pn the carpet, hat In
hand.
"What do you want?" demanded tho
college president, feeling quite equal to
the occasion.
"I should like to know," began the
Man, with some embarrassment, "if you
really did denounce the labor unions of
the country this evening; if you said
that they are opposed to the education
of young men, and that they are fighting
against the development of manly In
stincts; that a 'scab' Is a fine type of the
American hero; that the object of the
labor union is to work as few hours as
possible, to produce as little as possible
In that time and to receive as much
money as possible for the service given;
and finally, that you have a profound con
tempt for any man who does not choose
to labor every day and just as long as his
strength will permit?"
"Yes," replied the president of Harvard,
"those are my sentiments boiled down,
and I defy you to controvert my position
with logic."
"That being the case," said the Man
With the Hoe, tranquilly, "I must request
that you literally change places with me."
"But that is impossible."
"No," returned the other firmly, and
dropping his hoe, he made a leap for the
president. The mix-up was Interesting,
but obviously impossible to describe. It
was all over in a minute.
Eventually a very angry college presi
dent, In the garb and with the features
of a poor laborer, found himself In the
street.
"I've read of this sort of thing before
In cheap stories," he reflected. "It Is
wonderful to learn again that the Imagi
nation of men cannot really Invent the im
possible. After all I shall have no diffi
culty in establishing ray identity, and
then my fame will be world-wide as the
discoverer and expositor of this most
remarkable phenomenon known to psy
chology." He was aware of the taste of corncob
pipe in his mouth and of a sensation at
his stomach quite different from that fol
lowing the banquet. He hurried on to
rouse his friends.
To dwell on the details of the next few
hours would be unnecessarily harrowing.
His efforts to prove that he was the pres
ident of Harvard were a flat failure. He
found that he had suddenly forgotten
nearly all his learning nor could ho but
dimly recall his past. Nine A. M. saw him
ip a Police Court. Charge: Disorderly con
duct, sanity doubtful. He only saved
himself by a timely plea that he had been
slightly drunk, and had tried to have a
little fun. His rough hands and honest
face appealed to the court and he was
discharged with a brief, stern temperance
lecture.
The president had to eat. Being of an
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
It is with pleasurable anticipation that
the advent of the really excellent and
successful farce, "Hello, BUI," Is an
nounced at the Marquam Grand Theater
tomorrow and Saturday nights with a
popular matinee Saturday. Successful for
the palpable reason that It has succeeded
In pleasing and entertaining laughing
crowds all over the country and making
money for its producers. Excellent, be
cause it Is from the pen 'of a maker of
roally funny and wholesome comedies,
and further because presented by a cast
of able and well-known artists, among
whom are Misses Pauline M. Hlckler. Mil

At the Baiter Kext Weelc.
In his attempt to furnish material for
an evening's enjoyable entertainment,
Charles H. Hoyt attained the most pro
nounced success. Not only accomplished
his object with "A Texas Steer," "A Trip
to Chinatown," "A Midnight Bell." "A
Temperance Town," "A Mllkwhlte Flag"
and several others, but he more than sur
passed all previous efforts when he wrote
"A Contented Woman," which will be
produced at the Baker Theater by the
Nelll Stock Company all next week start
ing with Sunday matinee. Not only will
all the members of the company appear
In the production, but a number of new
people will be added, as tho cist of this
play is an exceptionally large one. There
will be 2S women In the production of "A
Contented Woman," In addition to the
male membera of the company. Another
feature of the performances next week
will be the introduction of some high
class vaudeville acts which are called for
by the plot of the comedy.
"A Contented Woman" deals with the
city election of Denver and the author,
though not pretending to be strictly true'
to life in his picturing of the scenes and
conditions of the contest, assumes that
such a state of affairs is possible to exist
at some future time, especially if the
women of Colorado continue to play as
prominent a part in the politics of the
state as they have in the past. The plot
of this excellent comedy is exceedingly
funny and there Is enough sentiment to
make, it thoroughly interesting.

The Beginning of It.
In the year 1833 there landed In New
York a young German mechanic, bound,,
like so many others, to make his way in
the New Worjd. His name was Christian
Frederic Martin, afterward well known as
C. F. Martin, Sr., and his trade that of
guitar and violin-maker. Thlrty-seen
years old, with a growing family, he was
in tho prime of life, and had every in
centive to make a lasting success. He had'
learned his trade in Saxony, and finished
it under one of the best masters in Vienna,
but above all. he possessed an artistic
feeling, which soon gave the Martin
guitar a name distinct from all others.
Some details of his work will be given In
later articles.
