What the blasting Means. Many per
sons inquire daily about the blasting
wnicn is heard going on South of the city.
Scarcely a. day nasses. no matter how
stormy It may be, without the discharge
ui v 10 to blasts being heard. The blasts
.are exploded in a quarry near the "White
iiouse, where the County Commissioners
nave a, rock crusher, and are breaking
stone to macadamize that portion of the
"White House road which was graded and
wldened.during the Summer. There are a
great many huge boulders In the quarry.
which have to be shattered with giant
powder, so that they can be run through
the crusher. Some 15 men are kept at
work In the quarry, and 6 to S teams haul
ing the crushed rock. A strip the 'whole
length of the part of the "White House
road that was graded, reaching close up
to the entrance of the RIvervicw cem
ctery, has received one coating of crushed
rock, 18 feet in width, and the teams are
now hauling the line rock for the second
coating, or surfacing. This work has
been very tedious, owing to bad weather.
nt it had to be done to keep the road
whore It had been graded In. passable
condition. The blasting which sounds so
loud and attracts so much attention is
only the discharge of one giant powder
cartridge at a time, laid on the top of a
boulder, with a little mud placed on top
or it to hold it down. Such a blast shat
ters a large boulder so that It can be
easily handled.
what One Fahm Does. Deer Island,
in the Columbia, not far above Kalama,
Is covered principally by a farm of 3000
acres, owned by Thomas Connell, of this
city, who uses it as a stock ranch.
There are many sloughs on the
island, which furnish good duck shoot
ing, the privilege of which Mr. Connell
leases to the Deer Island Hunting Club
for $500 a year; but they are not allowed
to shoot his cattle. He has part of the
island In alfalfa and part In redtop. and
fattens cattle with the hay. He has 320
3-year-old steers on the island now, and
a few days ago sold 80 of them to the
Union Meat Company for 4 cents per
pound, live weight. The remainder will
probably be fed till the June rise In the
Columbia, when they will be sold, as In
the highest flood the water covers most
of the island. Now the duck-hunters can
wade across from the mainland to the
island. Mr. Connell and his brother
bought this farm many years ago from
a San Francisco man, paying from $1
to $20 per acre. There have been many
tons of beef and some tons of ducks fur
nished from It for the Portland market
since that time. N
Whkhe Another Bridge or Ferry Is
Needed. One of Meier &. Frank's big,
two-horse delivery wagons was mired in
the mud at the corner of Twenty-fifth
and Thurman streets "yesterday after
noon. The running gear of the vehicle
went out of sight, except the tops of the
wheels. The wagon-bed rested on the
surface of the mud. The team was hast
ily unhitched and taken out of the mire
with some difficulty, and residents of the
vicinity came to the aid of the mud
wrecked craft and assisted with the de
livery of packages remaining aboard
when she went down. Hut the wagon de
lied all efforts at rescue for some hours.
Finally, late in the evening, a pontoon
that would stand the service was erected
around the vehicle, jackscrews lifted it
from the murky depths, and by means of
long-distance towing It -was gotten to solid
ground again. But the bosom of the
mud-hole remained unruffled.
To Show X-Rats. An exhibition of the
marvels of the X-rays will be given this
evening at the Y. M. C. A. as the regular
Saturday night "pop" for members and
their friends. A number of other elec
trical and scientific experiments, including
an explanation of wireless telegraphy, will
also be given. The electrical experiments
will be in charge of J. R. Thompson, of
the Portland General Electric Company,
and Walter Haynes, assistant Instructor
in electrical work in the association. The
X-ray apparatus and the Crookes tube
have been loaned for the occasion by Dr.
A. E. Rockey.
More Water for Albina. The water
committee is making good progress with
the work of enlarging the capacity of the
Albina water system. The work of lay
ing the new 14-inch main from the pump
house to the intersection of Knott and
Delay streets was begun as soon as the
heavy rain ceased, about a week ago, and
a strong force was employed, so that this
Job is nearly completed. Before the full
benefit of this enlargement can be seen,
it will be necessary to have the 8-inch
main laid further up the hill, and this
will be done as soon as practicable.
Rebuilding a Bridge. Work has been
going on continuously on the Front-street
bridge, across Marquam Gulch, notwith
standing the bad weather part of the
supports being on jackscrews. it Is not
safe to leave them. It Is hoped to get
this bridge completed next Monday or
Tuesday, and to shift the repair gang to
First-street bridge at once. Work will
be begun on the repair of Willamette
Heights bridge next Mo'nday. The ex
pense of this repair work will be borne
by Russell & Blyth and the Portland
Street Railway Company.

lowing officers were elected last evening

Great Building Activity. A collector,
whose business keeps him on the go all
over town day. in. and day out, says no
one can have any idea of the amount of
building work going on, unless he goes
to every part of the city. He says he
cannot go anywhere without running
across teams loaded with sash, doors and
all kinds of house fittings, and there
seems tp be no let-up in this kind of haul
ing on account of tne weather.

To Build at Sixth and Morrison. The
northeast corner of Sixth and Morrison"
streets will be occupied In a few months
by a modern three-story building of
pressed brick. Judge L. B. Stearns, the
owner of the property extending 100 feet
on Morrison street and 70 feet on Sixth
street, will begin the erection of a hand
some building April 1. the leases of the
present tenants expiring at that date.
The entire building has been already
leased to Allen. Gilbert & Ramaker, thq
piano dealers, who wish to move from
their present location on First street
Plans are now being drawn for the struc
ture, and the contract will soon be let.
Some surprise is expressed that the own
er of so central a corner should not cov
er it with a higher building, which would
correspond to the Hotel Portland and the
Marquam building, on the opposite cor
ners, but Judge Stearns evidently believes
that additional floors may be added
should a demand for offices present itself.
The negotiations have been under way
for some time, and were finally completed
this week.
Children Show Their Flowers. Pres
ident McCusker, of the Civic Improve
ment Association, says about 50 children
who received plants from the association
last Spring returned them to the Exposi
tion building yesterday, showing that the
children, take an interest In the cultiva
tion of plants and keeping lawns tidy.
Many of these exhibits are quite note
worthy. They will be on display this aft
ernoon, and the judges will award the
prizes for the plants that show evidences
df careful tending. The public Is invited
ELIZABETH IN HER NEW OREGON HOME. .
For a quarter of an hour of natural .mirth, read "Elizabeth In Her New Ore
gon Home" In The Sunday Oregonlan tomorrow. The letter tells her experience
Kith creen firewood and peculiar results of bsklng bread from '..'soft-wheat" flour
Its spontaneous humor will appeal alike to men and women.
to see the exhibit, and It Is hoped that
many grown people will be present to en
courage the little folks in their good
work. President McCusker has provided
quite a large number of prizes, and it is j
expected that most of those who have
(.manifested interest in tending their posies
will receive something for their pleasure
and encouragement.
Upland Bird Season to Close. To
morrow will be the last day of the season
for upland birds, and persons who did not
receive their Thanksgiving offer of Chi
nese pheasants, grouse, pheasants and
quail will have to go without them the
remainder of the season, unless their
restaurants provide them for the Sunday
dinner or keep a few in cold storage for
the Christmas or New Year's festivities
without the Game Warden's knowledge
or consent Game Warden Quimby says
he will seize all birds which are shipped
in out of season, and he has Instructed
his deputies to keep a sharp lockout for
such shipments. Last year Mr. Quimby
seized nine dozen In a single day, but as
the sportsmen have been more sportsman
like this year, he does not expect to make
such a large Inroad.
No Boom This Time. Several persons,
who had taken shelter for the time being
yesterday under an awning near where a
building was being torn down to make
"room for a better one, got engaged in a
discussion of the Increase in value of real
estate In this city. "Values have In
creased greatly," said one, "but they do
not go up so rapidly as In the days of the
Villard boom." "No," said another, "but
property was sold over and over at in
creased prices in those days, till finally
a mortgage was put on it, ana in the end
It had to be bought in by the mortgagee
at a loss. Now you will see that when
property is bought it is at once occupied
and put in condition to produce an in
come. There will not be many mort
gages foreclosed at loss again here."
Fun for Some People. Just how peo
ple can find, any pleasure in going hunt
ing or fishing these days is difficult to
imagine, but they do, as receipts of game
and fish Iteop up and prices are going
down. Columbia River smelts arrive in
75-pound lots, and will soon be low
enough to be within reach of all; and
Mongolian pheasants, native grouse, quail
and snipe are all less expensive than they
were a few days ago. Deputy Game
Warden Prettyman and A. T. Webb went
shooting out on their place, on Columbia
bottom, Thursday, and shot 50 ducks In
two hours, and then arrested three poach
ers. They were men well known to the
Game Warden. They -were ashamed to
be caught poaching, and paid their fines,
and promised to poach no more.
Money in Old Iron. A man who was
prowling about at tho North End yester
day came across an immense collection
of old Iron stored In otherwise vacant
lots. It looked as if a great deal of labor
had been expended in collecting the stuff,
and as if It would cost some one a lot of
money to clear it away some day. ii was
remarked to a man who appeared to be
in charge of tho old rubbish, that it must
be nasty stuff to deal In. "That's where
you are mistaken, my friend," he replied.
"Old Iron is the best stuff to deal .In there
is. It never goes out of fashion, never
wears out. Is not Injured by fire, does not
deed to be Insured, requires no shelter,
and can always be sold for cash. Yon
pay $5 a ton for It, and sell it for $10 per
ton, and that is good business."
Goon Thing for Chinese. The Chinese
In this country generally are taking ad
vantage of the cheap rate of exchange to
send their money to their own country.
For $3S 75 in gold they can receive a bill
good for 100 Mexican dollars in China.
This Is cheaper than exchange has ever
been before, and as a Mexican dollar Is
a dollar In China, the same as it has
been for a long time, there are Chinamen
buying exchange all day long. Those
who find living expensive here might try
residence in China for a while. They
wojfld tfouble. their money by changing it
Into Mexican dollars, and as living costs
not half as much In China as here, -much
money might be saved. Jt would not be
worth while to make calculations for
staying In China very long.
Old Boreas at work. The weather
during a part of the forenoon yesterday
was the worst so far this Winter. The
wind blew a gale from the south, and
the rain came down in torrents, and was
cold enough to be snow, and it was so
dark that lights were turned on in all
the offices about town. It had been com
paratively fine in the morning, and men
had gohe to their outside work in many
places and found it very trying during
the time mentioned; but at 11 o'clock the
sun shone out and made things more
Cheerful for a while, but during the aft
ernoon it was very stormy and disagree
able.
Wells, Fargo & Co. to Build. Eugene
Shelby says Wells, Fargo & Co. will build
on their quarter block, at Fourth and
Yamhill streets, next Spring, but it is not
yet determined whether the company wll
erect a 10-story building for a hotel, or a
three or four-story one tor the accommo
datlon of their business only. He is still
endeavoring to Induce the company to
build a hotel. He says a large building
is being erected in New York on ground
leased for 20 years.

NEW YORK, Nov. 2S. William H. Mc-
Nutt who was arrested here yesterday at
the request of the Chicago police, was
arraigned today and held in $1000 bonds
for examination. The complaint charges
that Willard Block, a Chicago lawyer,
was induced to buy 13.400 worth of stock
in the Horse Shoe Copper Mining Com
pany, in Arizona. When arraigned, Mc
Nutt denied that he was the man wanted,
but he said he was president of the Horse
.Shoe Copper Mining Company, and that
he knew Block.
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"Lost River" Matinee.
"Lost River." with its exciting scenic
effects, will be seen at Cordray's matinee
today, and' for the last time this evening.
An interesting feature of the matinee
will be the setting of the scenery of an
act in full view of the audience. "Lost
River" has an elaborate mechanical
equipment, and the spectators will find It
a novel. sight to see the stage hands at
work.
Matinee at the Balicr.
The usual crowded house will grept the
Neill Stock Company at the. matinee to
day at the Baker Theater, where Nat C.
Goodwin's great success, "A Gold Mine,"
will be presented. Tonight will be the
last performance of this amusing play.
Sale Opens for "Fiddle Dee Dee."
The advance sale of seats opened yes
terday morning for the big Webber and
Fields' burlesque. "Fiddle Dee Dee,"
which comes to, the Marquam Grand
Theater for one week, beginning next
Monday, December 1. "You'll have to
hurry" and get scats, as every one has
heard of this funny production, of its
tremendous hit in New York City, and
the phenomenal run of 111 nights in San
Francisco, and It goes without saying
there will be "something doing" at tho
Marquam all next week, as the company
plays at popular prices.
"Rudolph mid Adolpli."
"Rudolph and Adolph" will open at
Cordray's, starting at tomorrow's mat
inee. Mason and Mason, In Charles New
man's merry musical comedy, have dem
onstrated that It is not only possible, but
profitable, for entertainments of this style
to be clean and wholesome, as well as
funny. A great many authors appear to
have the Idea that, in order to evolve
ludicrous situations for stage purposes,
it is necessary to utilize risque situations,
and is necessary to resort to "suggestive
business" and double entendres in order
to provoke laughter. It Is very gratifying
to record that Mason and Mason.wlth their
excruciatingly funny German dialect,
with neat and clean dressing and make
up, and their quickness to make comedy
situations tell, score more real, pure,
hearty laughs than any team of comedi
ans who have been before the public in
years. "Rudolph and Adolph" is a com
edy of complications pure and moral in
tone, entirely free 'from vulgarity or sug
gestlveness in any "form, and the equal,
if not the superior, in plot, character
drawing and action, of any musical com
edy presented In years. The receipts
have been phenomenal, and the "standing-room"
sign is In evidence at every
return engagement. The usual matinee
will be given Saturday.
A Notable Production.
The production of "The Mnsqueraders"
at the Baker Theater next week will be
greeted with a packed house at every
performance. The play Is a drama "of
sterling -worth, and is filled with scenes of
Intensity which at times become most
thrilling. Every character in the play is
a gem. and the members of the Neill
Stock Company, individually and collect
ively, will be more than equal to the task
mapped out for them. The stage settings
will be most magnificent, and the furnish
ings of a richness seldom seen on any
stage. The characters in this wonderful
drama are members of the foremost social
set in England, consequently the' display
of rich and gorgeous costumes is called
for, a demand that will be complied with
to the fullest degree. The ladles will ap
pear In gowns which for beauty and ele?
gance will be marvels In-themselves. The
action of the jlay is in England and Nice,
wnicn gives ample opportunities for the
-magnificent display of beautiful scenery
for which the productions at the Baker
Theater have become so famous. ,
"The Masqueraders" will be one of the
events of this seasons theatricals, and
will he witnessed by large and enthusi
astic audiences every performance, for al
ready the advance sale for every night
next week is exceptionally large.

IMPORTANT TO RETAILERS
To the Public:
The attention of the public is called to
a circular issued by the Philadelphia Fire
Underwriters' Association and published in
the Journal of Commerce and Commer
cial Bulletin November 14. 1962, reading In
part as follows:
""The executive committee of the Phila
delphia -Fire Underwriters Association
feels compelled to call the attention of the
public to the dangers of life and property
from Christmas displays, decorations,
signs, etc.; in churches, public buildings,
mercantile establishments and especially
department stores. The use of Christmas
greens, harvest; specimens and other in
flammable materials, such as scenery, cot
ton to represent snow;, and the like (espec
ially Jn the connection of .electric and other
lighting systems), is decidedlyjan. increase
of hazard, it being impossible to make
displays of tHat nature perfectly safe.
One of ,the conditions of the insurance
policy Is that:'
" 'This entire policy, unless otherwise
provided by agreement Indorsed hereon or
added hereto, shall be void if the hazard be
Increased by any means within trie control
or knowledge of the Insured.'
"The making of Wuch displays would,
therefore, under a strict interpretation of
the conditions of the policy render the
contract of Insurance void, unless the
policy is indorsed with a special permis
sion for the Increased hazard, which ""will
generally be granted only In consideration
of an additional premium commensurate
with the hazard.
"In addition to the danger to property
from displays referred to, the dangers to
life In crowded storco or places of meet
ing by reason of a -panic occasioned by a
fire, even though it be small and easily
controlled. Is so great that the under
writers who have made a study of such
hazards would only be. partly fulfilling

FEATURES OF THE
. MARTIN MANDOLIN
Starting out to make only fine grades,
the makers of .the ilartln mandolin were
not hampered in their choice of material.
Their experience in guitars had taught
them how to select and cut the different
woods; trimmings of Ivory and tortoise
shell were soon found to be finer looking
than celluloid, and smoother to the touch.
A special feature Is that the rosewood is
matched, making a complete design of
each shell. The Inside Is lined and war
ranted to hold.
A most Important part of every mando
lin Is the break. This m the Martin Is
made on the Italian principle, with heat,
which gives the best tone. Quality con
sidered, the prices are very moderate, be
ginning at $30.00.
