Those who Trent" to market yesterday In hopes of securing a brace of pheasants were dis appointed, for not a feather of these beau tiful birds was to be seen. Just half a dozen came in on the Albany local train in the morning, but they were not dis played, being gobbled up at once. Two dozen pheasants came in Sunday, and they must have been shot very early Sunday morning. As the man who received them had orders for 10 dozen on his book, he made no display of the birds, but delh' ered them to customers who had ordered them at once. Delayed trains prevented any more from arriving up till last even ing, but few were looked for. A few blue grouse and ruffled grouse were displayed at one market, and also a small bunch of quail. The grouse sold at 75 cents each, and the quail at 40 cents. A man who bought a pair of the ruffled grouse said: "These are good enough pheasants for me." They used to be called pheasants here before the Mongolian pheasants were Introduced, and are a really fine game bird, but both the ruffled grouse and the blue grouse appear to have become scarce since the pheasants became numerous. Smelt Will Soon Be in Season. Fish ermen down, the river are beginning to overhaul their smelt nets; as these de licious little fish may be expected to put In their appearance in the Columbia any time after December 1. They are fished for with glllnets, and the quantity taken of late years has been enormous. They are shipped all o'er the country, and their run lasts till the weather becomes quite warm. The earliest news of the arrival of smelt in the river used to be furnished by the sturgeon when they were plentiful, for they were very fond of the smelt, and were full of them as soon as there were any of them to be found. Now sturgeon are scarce, which Is a good thing for the smelt The arrival of shad in the Colum bia need not be looked for till the worst of "Winter is over. By the timo people are tired of smelt and shad Spring salmon will be obtainable and other fish will be little in demand. There are plenty of carp now. Two fine, large leather carp were seen lying on the sidewalk In the rain yester day, quite comfortable, and apparently chatting about life on land. Wife Charged With Assault. The un usual spectacle of a husband charging his wife with having assaulted him was wit nessed yesterday In the Municipal Court. James McCauley, of Bussell street, ac cused his wife of striking him on the head and throwing a tumbler at him last Sat- urday at their hdme. He also accused her of drinking beer and champagne with an other woman in a saloon before the as sault took place. Mrs. McCauley admitted the beer and champagne episode, but de nied that she assaulted her husband. "What do you want done in this case, if I Impose a fine?" asked the Judge of Mc Cauley. "I won't live with my wife any more; I'm afraid of her," replied the hus band. "I'm willing to live with him; I can manage him all right," remarked Mrs. McCauley, In an easy sort of tone. "Never," announced the husband. The case was cpntinued for the present, with the understanding that Mrs. McCauley will be sternly dealt with If she assaults or molests her husband. The McCauleys were married last August. Best Duck-Shootin3 Is Over. Reports from sportsmen in regard to the duck shooting Sunday arc mixed. Some enjoyed fair sport,, and some fared rather poorly. It was a wild, windy day, not at all "a good day for ducks," but all In all a fair number of them were killed. The hunters look for no more great shoots such as those .of the two previous .Sundays. Such shooting only lasts a short time. The flight of ducks from the north Is now in, and many have gone on south and are gleaning submerged wheatfields up the Willamette Valley, and the farmers' boys are having their turn at duck-shooting. City sportsmen pay dearly for all the sport they, obtain from duck-shooting, and the number of days' good sport they get is few, while on the days when they have poor sport their expenses are just as large. Poshing Repairs op Bridges. Work has been pushed on the repair of the Front-street bridge across Marquam Gulch every day since it was started, re gardless of the stormy weather, as the need for the repair was urgent. It was at first supposed that It would only be nec essary to brace the bridge, but as the work progressed the condition of the tim bers was found to be worse than was sup posed, and it has been necessary to put 32 new posts in the place of ones that were too rotten to be safe. The work is ap proaching completion, and 15 men In rub ber boots and clothing worked all day on it yesterday in about as bad a storm as It Is possible for men to work In. It Is hoped that the work on this bridge can be com pleted this week, so that the repair of the First-street bridge can be commenced. "S" Cars Change Route Just in Time. The "S" cars of the City & Suburban Railway Company abandoned the Second street "cut-off" on Sunday, to the great joy of the conductors and motormen, who had christened it the Hong Kong route. The patrons of the road were also pleased with the change. Yesterday it was seen that the change had been made just in time, for during the forenoon a violent gust of wind blew down across the track on Second street near Grant a huge silver leaf poplar tree which S. A. Standberrv had been trying to kill by girdling, etc.. for a year or two. It was big enough and broad enough to have burled a car and load of passengers under Its huge branches. Storm Drives Out Loggers. The con tinuance of the storm has resulted In a general shutting down of logging camps along the Columbia. Benson's camps were shut down some time ago, and now other loggers have found that it is Impractica ble to continue operations while suteh weather as that of the past two weeks continues. A large number of loggers will now have to get their clothing dried, and If the storm continues much longer, logs will begin to be scarce. When the weather clears up it will not take long to get a large number of logs in the river, for there are many camps and many loggers employed this season. Will Talk on Alaska's Birds. At the meeting of the John Burroughs Society this evening. M. W. Gorman, who has spent the past Summer In Alaska, will tell of observations made by him of the birds of that region.

A vain attempt was made at the Munici pal Court yesterday to And out the guilty boys who upset and broke open L. H. Libby's toolhouse and took away his car penter tools Hallowe'en night Two boya named Frank Thompson and Carl Turney were accused of robbery "in breaking Into and entering a structure at Twelfth and East Morrison streets belonging to L. H. Libby, with Intent to steal and carry away personal property therein." The evidence was that witnesses heard the wooden structure fall shortly after 10 o'clock Hal lowe'en night, when boys were seen run ning away from the spot, but no evidence could be found as to the Identity of these boys; "I wasn't near that place Hallow e'en night, and didn't take part in upset ting the wooden building," testified Carl Turney. "I was working at Cordray's Theater that night" "What were you doing at the theater?" the boy was asked. "I was on the stage, along with other boys, cheering among the crowd at the performance of 'Barbara Freltchle.' " Claire Turney, 10 years old, corroborated his brother, and was asked by Municipal Judge Hogue If he understood what Is meant by taking an oath In court to tell the truth. "I tell the truth all the time, sir," replied the small boy. "You're just the sort of a boy I'm looking for," com mented the Judge, smiling. As there was no evidence that Carl Turney and Frank Thompson were connected, with the affair, they were discharged. The police are try ing to find evidence to enable them to ar rest other boys suspected of taking part In the alleged Hallowe'en- fun. Dan McAllen's Monologue. "Am I happy? Look at me," demanded Dan Mc Allen. "Ah, ha! Fine weather. Best on earth. See this? Not a hair on the top of my head. Do I need a hat? No, sir. Almost Christmas, too. Always turn your lace toward the rising sun. Best days In Oregon are the rainy days. Makes me feel rich. Every rain worth $1,000,000. Say, ever see Mount Hood at sunset all aglow with gold?

Portland's a great place to grow in. Does my business grow? Watch me. Now, run along, my boy, and spread yourself." New WAter Main on Seventh Street. The work of laying a larger water main on Seventh street from Salmon to Hoyt to Increase the fire protection, and the re moval of the old and smaller main, has at last been completed, to the relief of all concerned. It would have been completed some time ago, but the Council ordered tnat an connections must be completed before. the asphalt pavement Is laid on Seventh street, as It would not allow the pavement to be broken up to lay such connections. This caused the putting in of a number of connections for elevators In anticipation of business blocks to be built in the near future. The old main having been on one side of the street while the new one was placed on the other side, it took almost as much work to get the old one out as to put the new one in. The delivery of the mains for the enlargement of the water-supply system at.AIbina.has been commenced, jand-worjc of laying the pipe will bV "begun as soon as the weather is favorable. Corner-Stone op Old Trinitt. The workmen employed In tearing down Trin ity Episcopal Church vestorri the corner-stone, which was laid In April, l&is, oy .Bisnop Morris. The cavity In the stone contained a copper box about 12xSx6 Inches, which was removed and placed In charge of Rodney Gllsah. The stone is a fine piece of sandstone, about 3 feet 6 inches bv 2 feet R nrYi thickness. It will be preserved and a place wm oe lound for It In the construction of the edifice which Trinity parish will erect in the near future to take the place of the old church. A piece of cedar board which had been placed under the copper box on the brick foundation was black with age, and. allhnuch nnnpnrlnp- niilfn cnimrl oA every grain of the wood showing, crumbled like tinder In the fingers. The box, which Is in good condition, will be opened at a fitting time and the contents looked over, and probably most of them will be placed in .the corner-stone of the new church. Pitiful Incident op Storm. No one who had to work out in the pitiless storm of yesterday could look or appear jolly, but the most dreary, miserable-looking crowd Imaginable was made up of three expressmen who early In the morning were removing a rather large and seem ingly very poor family from a leaky cottage In the South End suburbs. While two of the expressmen were stowing the scanty furniture in one wagon and the meager supply of bedding in another, the third sat under the hood of his wagon holding an umbrella in front of him, waiting to carry the woman of the house and her all too numerous flock of little ones to a new, and it is to be hoped a bet ter, home. She said they had been driven out by the ceaseless rain, which found its way through the leaky roof and kept them drenched all the time. Captain Edwards Returns From the East. Captain E. S.

The recent disturbance at the Lion saloon, Fourth and Flanders streets, was Inquired Into yesterday at the Municipal Court, when Thomas Garland and Charles Smith were present to answer a charge of creating a disturbance.

Smith had his back to the front door and would not allow Bailey to enter at first" "I am a piano-player at the Sailors' Welcome saloon," testified Smith, a big, muscular individual. "I went to the Lion saloon to see a man, and while ascending the stair way two men began to fight and I was pinned against the door." "A man whose name I don't know struck a woman named Sadie, and I fought him. That's all I know about it," said Garland. The case was continued" for further evidence. Chinese Raid Fails. Deputy Sheriffs Snyder, Matthews and Adkins swooped down on Chinatown last night about 8 o clock, hoping to surprise some players of the elusive fantan game, but the Ce lestials were on the lookout and no game was found. Things looked promising at S3 Second street, and the three officers "rushed" the lookout, who was caught napping, but trouble occurred in getting an inner ironclad door opened. In the in terval any gamblers who might have been engaged at their favorite means of diversion caught the alarm and escaped by some of the numerous rear trapdoors known only to the initiated. When the officers did gain access to the main room two docile Chinamen were found, but they were not playing and there was no money in sight Delay in East Side Grading. For the past five months Giebisch & Joplln, con tractors, have been at work grading, grav eling and sidewalklng streets on the East Side Falling street, East Mill, East Sal mon. East Lincoln, Stephens, East Fif teenth, East Thirty-first, etc. They say that they have been delayed In complet ing their work by being-kept waiting all Summer for the city's steam roller. There was only one roller, and many people wanted to use it Of late there has been so much rain that it could not be used, and they have been obliged to use two team rollers, with four horses attached to each. They say a week of good weather would enable them to get through with their job, but at present it is impossible to utilize the steam roller. Thomas Farrell Ordered to Leave.

"The prisoner told me that he was employed In cleaning out a Whitechapel saloon, and' that he received $1 25 per day for the work," estlfied Policeman Bailey. "I went to the saloon he mentioned, and rouna out from the bartender that Far rell was not employed there, and that re cently he has hung around the saloon looking for 'easy' .men to give him free drinks." "If Your Honor will let me so this time, I promise never to enter another saloon," pleaded Farrell, fervently. His case was continued on condition that he leave tne city at once. Pioneer of 1849 Loses His Foot. John J. Farquar, a pioneer of 1849. is at the North Pacific Sanitarium with one foot less than when he came there last Wednesday. Mr. Farquar, who lives at Glendale, found It necessary a few weeks ago to have a too amputated from the right foot The wound failed to heal and made the recent amputation necessary.

He. believes the old stock of pio neers nave more iron in their blood and a better class of grit than any other race of people In existence. Awakened by the Jingle of Trt.-r phones. A telephone cable box at the corner of Park and College streets burned out Sunday nlcht and the suhsorlhra t that company throughout the nelghbor- nooa were awaicenea aoout midnight by such a terrific rinsrlnsr of their tplpnhnno bells that many thought the city was Demg Durnea ana tney were being warned from an untimely fate.

Haverly's Minstrels cling pretty closely to tradition, and as a consequence the performance last night at the Marquam was especially acceptable. There was a pleasing intermixture of pathetic, senti mental and comic songs, and the mono--logucs were exceptionally funny. The minstrels opened with a good scenic display of the waters of Venice, and from that moment there was no lagging. The rendition of "The Furniture Man" was about as funny and melodious piece of work as is often heard. Mr. Roland's heavy bass thundered out "The Sea Is Calling Me," and the audience recalled Mr. Roland and were not satisfied till he had given it again. Master Charles Richards sang the old favorite, "Soldier Boy," with good effect, and the arrange ment of the chorus proved very charm ing. Then Bert Swor gave in rollicking style "My Castle on the Nile," followed by Frank Coombs in "I've Got My Eyes on You." Here Mi-. Wilson found his opportunity for drawling wit) and he made some new Land fetching jokes. The ancient ones he rearessea so tnat tneir own originators would never recognize them. All through he displayed a quality of spontaneity that was refreshing in the highest degree. The others were not far behind him, and the eccentric dancing was fair, though not novel. The acrobats were good, especially the black-faced "Chinks," the" Young broth ers. The Carl Damann troupe are experi enced and. agile and amusing, though lack ing in new features. Haverly's Minstrels are by far the best that have performed at the Marquam this season. Tonight will be the final night of their appearance here. COMIXG ATTRACTIONS. Sale for "Belle of Xevr York."

"Alphonse and Gaston" Is, de scribed as a delightful production for re fined people. "Hunting: for Hawlclnn." About the only trust that does not In some way conflict with the views of some sort or condition of man Is the laughing trust. This great trust Is head ed by that jolly comedy, "Hunting for Hawkins," which Is to be the bill at Cor dray's Theater, Thursday, Friday and Saturday matinee and evening, November 20, 21 and 22.
