KelU Stock Company in "A Contented "Woman." CORDRAY'S THEATER Tonight at 8:15, "Pennsylvania." Secured Manx Relics. George H. Ulnes, field secretary of the Oregon His torical Society, has returned from a very euccesa(ul trip of four weeks through Southern Oregon, where he has been gathering nlstorical data and relics of all kinds. During his trip he traveled about 1200 miles and interviewed about 40 pioneers, making full notes of their ac counts of their early experiences. He se cured over 40 volumes of Pacific Coast papers, printed between 1860 and 18S0; .among them 15 complete" volumes of the Sacramento Union, several volumes of the San Francisco Bulletin and 2'volumes of the' Golden Era, of the time when it was at Its zenith, and Bret Harte, Joa quin Miller and others who have since be come notable were serving their appren ticeship on it He also secured two vol umes of Harper's Weekly, printed during the period of the Civil "War. He also se cured an exceedingly interesting auto graph letter of Captain George E. Pick ett (afterward leader of the Confederate charge at Gettysburg) when he was in command at San Juan, Wash., February 13. 1E61. He also collected a lot of relics of pioneer days, Indian relics and curios. For the most part his work was amojig the people he has not visited before and in a field that should be revisited at the earliest possible moment. He says South ern Oregon Is filling up rapidly and pros perity Is the watchword In every1 part of that region. Mr. Hlnes will leave in a few days for a similar trip through East ern Oregon. Bio Breakers at Clatsop. A consid erable number of people who have been sojourning at the seaside, Clatsop Beach, of late have been much Interested in watchJug the extraordinary and wonder ful tidal phenomenon, which is going on there. The rollers "which came up the beach have been Immense. On Friday last they came up level to the bulwark at Grimes' and they break a mile out from the shore. These rollers increase in vol ume dally as the moon approaches tho full, and it Is confidently expected by the Interested crowd who watch them that In a few days they will sweep over, every thing along the beach. Over tho raging seas can be seen Tillamook Rock looming up with the spray and spume drift break ing over the summit continuously. The grand scenery of the ocean in times of a "heavy weather" Is most wonderful and attractive to persons who live away from the coast While the weather hero has been very rainy, stormy and unpleasant most of tho time for tho past two weeks. It has been comparatively pleasant and enjoyable at Clatsop, and visitors have been enjoying their stay there better, if. possible, than in the Summer. Poor Shooting and Hunting. Tho rain supply having been exhausted dur ing the night, it ceased raining yesterday morning. Fishermen took advantage of this to go out after Fall, or salmon trout, which arc abundant in the Columbia River. Some 35 went over on the shore opposite Vancouver, and strung out along the river. Nearly all caught a few trout, but no one caught many. The fishermen said the day was too cold, but Just how the fish found this out under 10 to 20 feet of water, it is difficult to imagine. One fisherman arrived in town at 2 p. m. with two nice trout. He said the duck hunters out on the Columbia slough were not do ing much, as the ducks were very wild. The heavy rain the night before was enough to make them wild, and the cold high wind and the sunlight after the weather cleared up added to their shy ness. Close behind this fisherman came a hunter who confirmed his report. He had only a few ducks, and said the shoot ing all along the slough was poor all day. It Is probable that "wild" ducks and poor shooting yesterday will be re ported from all along down the river. Oregon Still in the Lead. An East ern man, who had Just arrived In Oregon, after spending a few weeks in Califor nia on the way, was riding up town in a crowded car, Saturday evening, when some of the passengers made remarks about the -rainy weather, and said they wished it would let up for a while. "I have heard of Oregon rains," said the stranger, "but I have been spending two weeks in San Francisco, and I want to tell you It has been raining' terribly there. I never saw anything like it, and don't believe that Oregon can hold a candle to California In the matter of rain." Some of the passengers smiled audibly, and If the stranger heard the rain com ing down during the night he probably smiles, too, for there were several record breaking showers, which fairly split the shingles on the roofs. All who have lived In California know that sometimes when it starts to rain there It surprises the natives, but such efforts are spas modic, and for a steady, continuous and copious dpwnpour Oregon is the cham pion. Trees Wait for Fbost. Still no frost comes to help the trees don their gaudy Autumn livery, and they stand shivering in the raw, chilly breezes, in all sorts of rags and tatters. Some trees, principally locusts, black walnuts and a few maples, are stripped quite bare. Other maples have lost their leaves, but still hold bush els of winged seeds, which will come flut tering and whirling down after the first frost Others are still covered with faded leaves, and here and there one is seen al most as verdant as in June. Trees of all kinds vary greatly in the matter of shed ding their foliage. A striking example of this is seen in the different varieties of elms. The large elms on and around the residence block of H. W. Corbett are all stripped of their leaves. The next block south, occupied by the Failing res idence, is surrounded by another kind of elm the cork-barked variety all of which are still covered with dense foil age, every leaf being a beautiful golden yellow, and the whole forming a beautiful spectacle, especially "when the sun is shin ing. Game for the Poor. For a number of years many sportsmen and game clubs of this city hate made it a rule to do nate the results of one week'o shooting to hospitals, charitable institutions, and deserving poor people. This they look upon as a sort of thank-offering to show their gratitude for good sport they have, and it is, also a thoughtful act of charity, especially at this season and when living is so high. The present week has been selected for this donation, and it is to be hoped that the hunters may have good luck so that there will be game enough to "go 'round." Ducks have been so . plenti ful of late that they have been fairly' a drug In the market, but the Inmates of charitable institutions have hardly got tired of seeing duck on the table yet, and will be able to appreciate and enjoy more.

A small gang of men, who, under the superintend ence of William Braden, have for years followed the unpleasant and unwhole some business of putting la .order broken or choked sewers, have been busy of late on a more unpleasant and difficult job than uauaL In repairing the East Side approach to the Madlson-sreet bridge, which was damaged by fire, the piledrlv ers employed by the County Commission ers played smash with several lengths of pipe forming the tfnd of the Madison street sewer. They did not drive all the piles fairly through the sewer, but soma six or seven piles were driven so as to break out sections of the pipe, some on one side and some on the other. The broken pipe had to be removed and re placed by sound pipe, and in order to do this the piles had to be hewn away to make room lor the pipe to go between them. In order to do this the men have to stand and work In the torrent of sew age which flows from the whole Madison street sewer district, and as may easily be imagined the work Is not pleasant. Men who do such work as this take their lives In their hands, and there is serious talk among the city authorities in regard to the injustice of their doing It for ordi nary wages. Ha Awoke in Time. A well-dressed man, considerably under the influence of liquor, was the star attraction for a bad quarter of an hour yesterday afternoon, at thp southwest corner of Third and Washington streets. After making a speech to the crowd about the evils of in temperance, he fell asleep. A choice col lection of men and boys surrounded him, and nearly every other man and woman who passed stopped and asked: "What's the matter?" One elderly man was under the Impression that some sort of a curb stone meeting was being held, and audibly commented on the good listeners present! Then a policeman came In sight, went up to the drowsy man and shook him, but the stranger refused to talk, and the po liceman went away. "Guess he's .gone for the patrol wagon," suggested one youth. The words had a magical effect on the drunk, for he s&lemnly arose, saying: "Won't go paytrol, hie, wagonsh," and walked up Third street In a few minutes the policeman, who had gone for rein forcements, came back, very much sur prised that the drunk was gone. "It's a good thing for him," he said significantly. Few Pheasants to Come. Those who have been expecting to see the markets overstocked with Mongolian pheasants today and for the remainder of the month are likely to be disappointed. Dealers have Jiad numerous inquiries from various parts of the Willamette Valley as to how much they would pay for, pheasants, but, owing to the long spell of stormy weather, they do not expect to receive any very large number. The price will probably be $1 25 to $1 50 per pair. Sportsmen and the public generally hope that there will be no great slaughter of the pheasants. Even the dealers say they hope that not many will come to market, as there is so much talk about the pheasants being ex terminated. They would like to have a few for customers who wish to taste these flno birds once or twice In a sea son, but do not want to see large numbers sent In. There is plenty of waterfowl on tho market of the best quality and at very reasonable prices, and occasionally snipe can bo obtained, and If people would be content with these, and allow the pheasants which have escaped the hunter till this time to go free thero might be more pheasants next season. How a Pont Race Ended. Two boys, each about 14 years old, mounted on shag gy ponies, caused the latter to race along Fourth street near Stark, yesterday af ternoon, at full speed, to the Imminent danger of passers-by. Policeman Parker came up with the wild horsemen, Just as the latter stopped their ponies for breath. "Do you boys think you are on a race track?" he asked. "We were Just having a little race," said one of the culprits, be ginning to look a little frightened. "Dis mount from your ponies and come with me," was the policeman's order. Both boys were taken 'to the police station, and were severely reprimanded by the police officials, while their ponies looked through the windows to see what was going pn. Both boys protested that they did not know that it is against the law to ride horses at a rapid gait within the city limits, and were allowed to go after .promising to be more careful in the fu ture. Hard Times in Whitechapel. Busi ness, in the matter of arrests for crime, is quieter at the police station this month than It has been for a long time, due to the fact the police say, that vice In Whitechapel Is now sharply regulated. "Ninety-five per cent of Whitechapel ar rests Is due to the drinking of liquor, di rectly or indirectly," said a policeman on Third street, last night "The people we arrest around here are either drunk, or they have been drinking, or they have got Into some saloon row. All the sporting resort people along Fourth street say that trade is so poor they are losing money. Various saloons on my beat have only a sprinkling of customers, and as a conse quence there are fewer people to arrest." British Columbia Will Exhibit. R. E. Gosnell, commissioner of the Lewis and Clark Exposition for British Colum bia, assures The Oregonlan that his gov ernment will make an appropriation for the fair. He writes: "I understand that the Dominion government has under con sideration tho advisability of making an exhibit and, if so, it is possible that the Dominion of Canada and the Province of British Columbia would co-operate. As soon as the executive has had an oppor tunity of deliberating on the subject and reaching a conclusion, I shall have pleas use In conveying to you the result" Will Discuss Labor QuESTioN.The Young People's Culture Union and Port land Lodge B'nal B'rlth will hold a Joint meeting in the Selllng-HIrsch building to morrow evening at 8 o'clock.

Music will be furnished by Miss Rose Lowenberg and Dom J. Zarr, Friends of members are welcome. Charged With Selling on Sundan. H. Mazerosky, 62 years old, a dealer In second hand goods on Third street was arrested yesterday by Policeman Frank lin, charged with violating city ordi nance No. 12,435 in keeping open his store on Sunday. The penalty for violating this ordinance is a fine of not less than $50 and not exceeding J250, or imprisonment of not less than 30 days or not more than 90 days, or both fine and Imprisonment No Damage by Wind Storm. The rain and wind storm ot last night caused less damage than was -expected. Up to an early hour this morning, no complaint of serious damage reached the police station, although 'phone messages were received stitlng that awnings were torn and bill boards blown away. Slight Fire in a Church. A gas Jet burning near woodwork in one of the rooms at the First Baptist Church, yes terday morning, some little time before service commenced, caused the wood to begin to crackle, and a telephone call brought a chemical fire engine. Tho dam age to the woodwork was slight Farewell to Rev. Huber Ferguson. The farewell reception to Rev.

Bernard 3race Holme Cathrlne Countls3 The Jolly play of Hoyt's, "A Contented Woman," now at the Baker, is a very good example of the power of pure fun. It is a comical hit at the woman suf fragist and Its many scenes turn on the adventures of two factions in a municipal struggle. One is headed by Holmes, who Is the "reform" candidate for Mayor; the other is the woman's faction, and its can didate is Mrs. Holmes. The full strength of the cast is brought out, so far as comedy goes, and Mlna Gleason as Aunt Jim is a glorious success. Her work displays not only talent but ar tistic skill of the highest type. Mr. Wyn gate's role is good humor, with an occa sional chance for genuine acting. Jlis manner is very good, and his1 scenes with Miss Countlss are both sharp satire and comedy. Miss Esmond as Mrs. Ebbsmlth Is effective in the most unexpected way, That shows Miss Esmond's art. Miss Sutton and Mis3 McNeill are heroically comical, and their somewhat artless ex hibition of how a man is supposed to do things is extremely good, better than they know. Miss Helen Holt (Calliopa Ayers), who Is a beginner, speaks out clearly and shows talent. A little better control of her hands would benefit There are .many features, among, them a ttlo of woman's right apostles, who vent their aspirations In a pathetic ditty that brings tears of undiluted Joy to the mas culine heart. Then Miss Rhoads proves that she Is possessed of a beautiful voice, and one worth cultivating with care. The vaudeville specialties ire clever and amus ing. The duo by Sylvester and Jones Is as good as can be asked anywhere. Miss Dorothy Bernard made a deserved hit. The facial control of Mr. Slddle as Boylo Dowell, the prize-fighter, deserves spe cial notice. He very nearly absorbed the attention of the whole house during a part of the first act. The whole performance Is good, indeed, and It shows caroful restraint In that It Is played legitimately throughout. Every one does well, and two crowded houses displayed their enthusiasm in repeated calls. LAWYERS TO MEET. State Bar Association Begins Ses sions Tomorrow. The annual meeting of the Oregon Bar Association will be called to order in the United States courtroom at 10 o'clock tomorrow morning by the president, Cir cuit Judge John B. Cleland.

Boise, of Salem, Cir cuit Judge for the Third Judicial Dis trict, who will take as his subject, "Fifty Years of Recollections of the Bar of Ore gon."

Woodcock, of Eugene. Tho three subjects which will be dis cussed Wednesday are as follows: First service of summons outside of the state to be equivalent to an order for publication. At present service upon nonresidents may be had only by pre senting an affldlvlt showing that they are nonresidents and then securing from the court an order for the publication of the summons. Second, amending the attachment law. This amendment was prepared by Wirt Minor two years ago, and if he should be In the city he will present It to the as sociation in person.

Judging from the enthu siasm of the audience, the production was a success. Vigorous applause greeted each climax. The timeliness and novelty of the play had, of course, something to do with this, but the audience was not backward in showing its approval of the Individual acting. "Pennsylvania" is a clean, wholesome play, wherein it fulfills "one of the first requirements," as Manager Cordray said in speaking of it, "that we exact in any production at our place." There Is no blood and thunder or wild shooting about it, but the climaxes are cleverly worked out and always secured the necessary effect surprise. It is a story of the anthracite region of Pennsylvania. The characters aro miners, members of miners' families, an artist, a poet, a broker, a doctor, an ad venturess, a policeman and a mlneowner, which latter Is, of course, the villain. The plot Involves the discovery, by Estelle Duquesne, "a girl with a head," once .almost the wife of Charles Broadhead, owner of the Vulcan mine, that Broad head holds the mine by fraud. Stung by his treatment, she finally secures proof of tho fraud and exposes him. But "pos session Is nine points of the law," and he does not give up without a struggle. There . is lots of trouble, tho mine is wrecked realistically in the third act, and the general ill treatment and abuses suf fered by tho 'miners culminate In a strike, all of which shows how up-to-date is the play In the matter of public interest. Two or three love affairs wind their way through the story, the principal one carrying this interesting situation: Tho girl, secretly engaged to one man, re ceives attentions from another, whom at last, after the engagement is announced, she discovers that she loves. Several well-applauded specialties va ried the production. The house was crowded again last night. The play will run tonight, tomorrow night and Wednesday night. TORE DOWN NO SIGN. Bat He "Wan Fined, Just the Same, Suys Mr. Conlter. PORTLAND, Or., Nov. 16. (To the Ed itor.) In The Oregonlan of November 13 an article headed: "Tore Down a Sign." I tore down no s!gn,.nor did I break down any barricade on East Washington street, for which I was arrested and fined. But I did break down a barricade in front of my door on East First street, the door opening on a railroad platform, as there are no sidewalks on East First street I warned the barrlcaders not to put it up, and then I went to the City Engin eer and requested its removal. The young man In the office look down my complaint and said that It would be looked after. That was Friday morning. I waited untl, Saturday afternoon. No one came, and I knocked down the barricade In front of my door, but not on Washington street or Its sidewalk. Then a poltroon em ployed by the city came up and asked me if I knocked it down. I said, "Yes." He then said, "I will have you arrested, you .". I was' arrested and the Judge said he found me technic ally guilty. But there Is a difference, I find, In the fact I was found guilty after my plea of not guilty, for I was charged with tearing down a sign and breaking a barricade on Washington street, which 1 never did. Now I am fined for protecting my own concerns, am told, Co make an example to deter others from protecting their own doors. One other phase of how things are done in different cases in the Police Court of Portland is that 15 young men and boys were tried for breaking down a barricade on a street and a part of them pleaded' guilty, but- they were all dismissed. But I was fined. It'a an Im provement on Bryan, as it's a case of 15 to L I have been a citizen of Portland for over 30 years and a producer of useful articles all that time. I am not a bum mer or lawbreaker, and in this case I have had. gross Injustice done me by tho city authorities. J. M. COULTER. PROBABLY AN ACCIDENT. Nothing? to Verify Belief Guitnvxon Died by Foul Play. The body of the man found drowned in the river near Burnside-street wharf Sat urday was identified yesterday as that of Alfred Gustavson, formerly janitor at the Hamilton building., From marks found on the body, it was at first though that there were suspicious circumstances con nected with the case, and that Gustavson might haye been assaulted and thrown Into the water. But the Coroner's jury, after hearing evidence in the case last night, came to the conclusion that it had no means of knowing whether Gustav son's death was accidental or otherwise, and it is now supposed that, while under the influence of liquor, Gustavson wan dered near the. river's edge and fell In. He was born In Sweden 2S years ago, .and after he resigned as janitor of the Hamilton building, he became a fisher man at Astoria. Up to five years ago he w.aa sober and attentive to his work, but about that time one of his brothers was accidentally killed in an Idaho mine, and Alfred Gustavson became broken-hearted in consequence. He became moody and morose, and took to drink. Fqr several years past he resided, at intervals, at the Washington Hotel, Third and Flanders streets, and left there about two weeks ago, stating that he was going to work for a farmer near Oregon City. It chanced, however, that this farmer came to town inquiring why, Gustavson had not started to work for him as promised, but nothing more was heard of the missing man until he was found In the river. The funeral will be held at 2 o'clock this afternoon from Coroner FInley's chapel, Third and Madison streets, and the Interment will be at Lone Fir Cem etery. Gustavson will be burled by his men friends here, as all his relatives Hye in Sweden.

This can be answered In one word, only, by saying that It partook from the first of the con scientious nature of Us founder. Quiet, retiring, Mr. Martin lived for hlB art, and was satisfied with nothing unless it was as nearly perfect as he could make it. In keeping with his character, he moved to a quiet settlement in Pennsylvania In 1S39, and thero worked until his death In 1873, when he left a well-established busi ness to his descendants. IJere Madame de Gonl and other famous musicians visited him, with the result that his guitars be came known as, artists' models. 'A de scription bf some leading styles will be given later.

The germ makes cuticle scales as It digs to the root of tho hair, where it destroys the hair's vitality, causing the hair to fall out. To cure Dandruff, the germ must be killed.
