Mant Signs of Spring. Several per
sons have reported the return of the birds
and the passing of Winter. At Sixteenth
and Yamhill streets more than 50 robins
were seen on Saturday, and a man who
resides near East Fifteenth and East
Madison says that there were over 100
meadow larks and a flock of robins feed
ing In that vicinity all day Sunday. A resi
dent of Johnson street says that a num
ber of linnets have had their homes in
the hedge of rosebushes under his window
for some time and sing their sweetest
notes when he is taking his breakfast
every morning. They spend most of their
time during the day searching the rose
bushes for all sorts of pests on which
they live. On Sunday, when the mild,
balmy Chinook was blowing, the linnets
swelled their little throats to bursting to
make their singing correspond with the
Springlike weather. The presence of the
birds about the premises is attributed to
the fact that no cats are kept there, and
all who prefer the song of a linnet to the
caterwauling of cats should do away with
the felines. All the persons who reported
seeing birds added that "Winter was over,
but were told that there is time for a
cold snap yet, as a few years ago there
was a very disagreeable bit of Winter in
February. The man who heard the cheery
peep and chirp of frogs in a pool near the
junction of East Nineteenth and the
Sandy road on Sunday says he pins his
faith on the peeping frogs, and is conli
dent that Winter is over, and that the old
Indian who predicted a very hard Winter
was a false prophet. It is, however, not
worth while to crow till one is out of the
woods, and the middle of February will
be time enough to say Spring has come.
The birds have not been far away, and
the frogs are here all the time.
CraxESE Have Poor Home. The de
stroying of the old tumble-down shack on
Taylor street, between Second and Third,
where a Chinawoman was murdered, has
exposed the rear end of the brick build
ing. No. 193 Second street, which is in
habited by Chinese. As it was about
ready to tumble down, it has been sup
ported by planks laid against it braced
with timbers, and a lot of bricklayers are
at work tearing out the most dangerous
parts in sections and rebuilding them.
The whole wall is in a very shaky and
unsafe condition, and the interior, seen
through the openings, looks dark, smoky
and dirty. Several owners of property in
the vicinity were looking at the building
yesterday, and were agreed that it ought
to be torn down. This particular build
ing is on property owned by the heirs
of Sherry Ross, and is leased to Chinese.
It was also the opinion of those citizens
that all who had leased property in the
business part of the city to Chinese for
a term of years had made a mistake
and decreased the value of their own
and all other property in the vicinity.
Their idea was that the Chinese should
be removed and relegated to the "bad
lands" district.
Ducks Are Educated. The high water
caused by melting snow in the mountains
has done no serious damage in this sec
tion, like washing out railroads and that
sort of thing, but it has interfered with
hunting and fishing to some extent. The
sportsmen who went out to shoot ducks
Sunday did not And so many birds as they
hoped to. The ducks are scattered all
about the country, and find pools to feed
in everywhere. On a few of the most
favorably situated preserves good sport
was enjoyed, and some canvasbacks and
a few fine swan were shot. But in most
places the shooting was poor. As one dis
gusted sportsman remarked, there are
thousands of ducks in the country. lut
they are educated. Before long these
educated ducks will know enough t6 eat
all the wheat put out for them and keep
out of the reach of shot.
Had Not Seen Him for Thirtt Years.
A brother and sister separated for 30
years were united yesterday through the
efforts of the woman's daughter, Mrs. C.
C. Vaughn, who lives in Portland. Mrs.
E. H. White, of San Francisco, had not
seen her brother, Conrad Kuehle, who
lives in Thornton, Wrash., for 30 years,
until she was brought face to face with
him yesterday afternoon at her daugh
ter's residence. Though each knew where
the other lived, they had no idea of meet
ing in Portland, where both happened to
be for a few days. Mrs. "Vaughn heard
that her uncle was in the city, and quietly
arranged a meeting between the long-separated
brother and sister. Mrs. White
was sitting in the parlor quietly talking
when a man whom she barely recognized
as her brother was ushered in, to the
amazement of both.
Dance for Former Fireman. A dance
for the benefit of ex-Fireman Matthew T.
Geldard, who was recently severely In
jured in an accident on the East Side
while folio-Ring his trade as carpenter,
will take place January 23 at Arlon Hall,
Second and Oak streets. All tho firemen
throughout the city are interesting them
selves in disposing of tickets, and they
hope that tho dance will be liberally sup
ported. If Geldard had been Injured in
the performance of his duty as a fireman,
lie could have had the benefit of funds
belonging to the Firemen's Mutual Relief
Association, but, having been Injured
while working as a carpenter, he does
not have a claim on this, fund. For sev
eral months Geldard, who is unmarried,,
but has a mother to support, has been
going around on crutches.
Mild Ttpe of Smallpox. There are
seven cases of smallpox at the pesthouso
now. Last week the number was reduced
to two, but on Friday and Saturday live
more patients were discovered and taken
out. None of the cases are dangerous,
but the wife of the Mexican saddler who,
with her husband, was taken .from Wash
ington street, near First, is the sickest
of the lot. There have been several cases
of smallpox in the building where they
lived, which were passed off as German
measles. A son of the couple had the
disease, and was kept at home till he
recovered. Now both his parents have it.
Before they are allowed to return home,
if they recover, the building will be thor
oughly fumigated.
Charge Was Dismissed. The charge
against Mrs. C Lancaster and Miss Tes
8ie Lancaster for threatening the lives
of the two Clayton children was dismissed
by Municipal Judge Hogue. After listen
ing to tho testimony, the court said that
there was no evidence to show that there
had been any serious threat made, and
that it was not a proper case to bring
into court. The case was dismissed after
the prosecution had given their testimony.
No witness was called for the defense.
Smelt Shut Off bt Flood. The supply
of smelt to the markets was shut off yes
terday on account of the- flood In the
Cowlitz River. This stream is out of its
"banks and running like a mill race. The
smelt cannot stem tho current, and have
been swept back into the Columbia. The
water will have subsided in a day or two,
and then the little fish will butt in again
and struggle to reach the spawning pools
away up in the headwaters.

Two Building Contracts Let. Build
ing operations and outdoor work general
ly were resumed all over the city yester
day, under the influence of the genial
weather. Proposals for the construction
of a building 100x100, three stories in
height, at Eleventh and Yamhill streets,
for the United Carriage Company, were
opened by Messrs. Whldden & Lewis yes
terday. The contract was awarded to J.
M. Merchant. After a tedious wait, work
lias been started on the excavation for
the foundation of this building, and is
being pushed vigorously. Incidentally,
people on Morrison street are complaining
about the amount of earth which is be
ing scattered over their asphalt pave
ment This Job will soon be completed,
and work on the building will be com
menced as soon as possible. Proposals
were also opened by Whldden & Lewis
yesterday for the construction of the
long-delayed building of the Holman Un
dertaking Company, at Third and Salmon
streets. This contract was awarded to
Gardner and McLennan, and the brick
work will be done by A. and W. Friberg.
The concrete foundation walls are com
pleted, but there is a foot and a half of
! water in the excavation. The bottom is
I hard pan, impervious to water, and the
hole which was bored down to gravel has
become stopped with mud. Messrs. Fri
berg will commence today to dig a well
down to the stratum of gravel, to let tho
water escape. In order to do this, they
have to build a circular dike around the
place where the well Is to be dug, but the
water has to be got rid of.
Membership Contest Banquet. Mult
nomah Camp, No. 77, Woodmon of tho
World, held their membership contest
banquet last evening at 249 First street.
Every member who had brought another
person into the camp was entitled to a
seat at one of the two long tables, and
apparently every Woodman in tho or
ganization had led another into the fold,
to judge from the crowd that enjoyed the
banquet. The room was prettily deco
rated, as were also the tables, and 110
timber-choppers sat down to the feast.
The speakers of the evening wore: State
Senator J. E. Hunt, who spoke on "Fra
ternal Woodcraft," and J. C. Jones, cap
tain of the Multnomah Camp, whose topic
was "The Uniform Rank." while Joseph
Woodward told the members of the
growth of Multnomah Camp. James Rud
diman was the toastmaster of the ban
quet. Drinking Watkr Discolored. The wa
ter supplied to tho city from Bull Run
was slightly discolored yesterday, which
Is very seldom the case. This was caused
by the chlnook wind melting the snow In
the mountains so 'rapidly as to cause a
heavy freshet in the river. At 12 o'clock
Saturday night the water In Bull Run
was 12.7 feet higher than It had been.
This is the highest the stream has been
since the Portland water supply was
taken from it, except once about two
years ago, when it was a foot higher.
The discoloration even after such a tre
mendous freshet was very slight, and was
noticed by but few. The fact Is that tho
water is so seldom discolored that most
people who notice anything of the kind
are as likely to attribute it to the condi
tion of the vessel they see tho water in
as to the liquid Itself.
Got Ten Days, Antwat. The two
young men who were arrested Saturday
morning by Officers Mallet and Wilkinson
were yesterday sentenced to 10 days each
on the rockplle. There was no evidence
to show that they had contemplated a
robbery, and such a charge could not be
made against them. The officers were
convinced, however, that they were not
hanging around the saloon on Third and
Taylor streets for any good purpose, and
resorted to the after-hour ordinance. The
evidence showed that neither of them was
employed In the city, and that one car
ried a concealed weapon. The excuses
they made for being on the streets at
that time of night were weak, and their
arrest has probably prevented some con
templated robbories. They gave their
names as Carl Gibbon and A. R. Mc
Adams. Care for the Sick Poor. At the meet
ing of the board of directors of the Asso
ciation of Visiting Nurses, held at the
residence of Mrs. J. N. Teal recently, the
president of the organization, Mrs.
Stephen S. Wise, reported that the nurses
had made S7 visits to tho indigent sick
during the past month, and that they
had regularly attended 18 cases of Illness
during that time. One pneumonia pa
tient had been saved through the care
of one nurse, who remained with her for
seven nights. The association wishes to
enlarge Its membership that It may the
better work among the poor of the city
who are unable to pay the expense of hos
pital treatment, and for the support of
this worthy causo more subscriptions are
required.
Patton Home Is Prosperous. Tho an
nual meeting and election of the Patton
Home Association was held at the home,
975 Michigan avenue, yesterday. Tho re
ports for the year showed the finances
to be in a healthy condition. There are
now 12 inmates in tho home, four deaths
having occurred during tho year. The
following officers were elected for the
ensuing year: Mrs. Theodore Nicolal,
president; Mrs. N. O. Forbes, first vice
president; Mrs. L. M. Davis, second vice
president; Mrs. W. F. Ely, recording sec
retary; Mrs. Charles Overbaugh, treas
urer; Mrs. D. H. Rand, corresponding
secretary; trustees, William Wadhams,
Richard Williams, W. O. Forbes, E. W.
Rowe, M. E. Thompson and A. A. Do
kum. The Shepardson Meetings. Tho series
of preaching services in the First Baptist
Church conducted by "The Wheel-Chair
Preacher," Rev. Daniel Shepardson, Ph.
D., have grown in Interest from the be
ginning. On Sunday night the great
house was packed and the audience
listened with close attention to the ser
mon. The preacher is a fine Hebrew and
Greek scholar, and the author of several
books. The afternoon "Bible Readings"
are largely attended and greatly enjoyed.
These services will continue for an in
definite time. Afternoons at 3 o'clock and
in the evening at 7:30. Sermon at 8.
Without Being Asked. Tho foundries
of tho city seem to bo following tho exam
ple of the Willamette Iron Works in giv
ing their men a nine-hour working day,
while the present scale of wages is main
tained. The Oregon Foundry, an East
Side shop, posted a notice yesterday an
nouncing that In the future they would
pay the same wages for nine hours' work
as they hitherto paid for 10 at that estab
lishment. Although4 only 12 or 14 men
are employed there, the labor unions re
gard the step as a move in tho right di
rection, as the men had made no request
for a change.
Factort Opens Next Week. Prepara
tions have been completed for opening
Neustadter Bros.' new factory, on tho
East Side, next Monday. Tho factory will
bo devoted to the manufacture of me
chanics' clothing, overalls and overshirts
principally, and will furnish employment

One of the daintiest, most charming love
stories heard here for some time is Clyde
Fitch's "Captain Jinks of the Hor3e Ma
rines," presented last night at the Mar
quam Grand Theater before a large audi
ence. Including a delegation of officers of
the Seventeenth Regiment, United States
Infantry, from Vancouver Barracks.
This is the first visit to Portland of
"Captain Jinks," and the comedy is bound
to be a favorite. The cast Is an excellent
one, the star being Elizabeth Kennedy,
who plays the part of Madame- Trentonl,
a prima donna. The story deals with
New York City In the early 70s, the period
of hoop skirts among women and flat
brimmed tall hats among men. From tho
moment Madame Trentonl graciously de
cended from tho steamer gangway to the
dock of the Cunard Steamship Company,
with her dogs gamboling about her, on
her arrival from Europe, where sho had
tasted the success of a grand opera sea
son, she was Intensely womanly and
charming. Nothing could exceed tho arch
ness and vivacity with whjch she re
ceived the attentions of the newspaper
men and dandies who wished to inter
view her, all at once.
The scene in which Captain Jinks (Theo
dore Babcock) made a foolish bet with two
young dandies of the period, that ho
would flirt with the opera singer, was
only equalled In power by the pretty
love scene between Trentonl and Jinks,
when Peter, the hotol boy, interrupted
the agitated lovers, saying "Ice water."
Miss Kennedy displayed ability of a high
order when she discovered the episode
of the bet and her lover's part In It. She
was the woman all the time, half-hoping,
half-doubting in the intensity of her love.
In the quarrel scene, after which she Is
suddenly called on to witness a rehearsal
of the ballet corps, she just gives a
suspicion of the distress under which she
Is suffering, but too proud to show it
openly. The happy ending is in keeping
with the high character of tho comedy.,
"Captain Jinks" will be presented to
night and tomorrow night.
PHOTOGRAPHED HAWKS.
Stercopticon Views Obtained at
Much Peril to Be Exhibited.
At the stereopticon entertainment
to bo given by tho John Burroughs
Club next Wednesday night at Untarlan
Chapel there will be exhibited a series of
pictures showing scenes from the life of a
family of red-tailed hawks, living in Col
umbia Slough.
These photographs were taken 120 feet
from the ground, high up in a hugo
cottonwood tree. As the tree had no
branches for the first 40 feet, climbing
Irons had to be used In making the ascent.
Photographs showing the comical as well
as the perilous side of such an attempt
to pose youifg hawks before a camera
at such a high altitude will be an inter
esting part of the exhibit.
DrC Woods Hutchinson is peculiarly
qualified to speak on the subject, having
shared some of the dangers of the photog
raphers, Messrs. Finley and Bohlman,
in obtaining the pictures of the sea birds.

ly got arouna tne washouts along the
railroads In Puget Sound country and ap
peared last night in this city, in time for
the opening at Cordray's Theater, where
they were kindly welcomed by a large
and appreciative audience.
The motif of the play deals with good
old times in the Sunny South, with dark
ies, laughter, music and a love story, with
the inevitable villain to be overcome.
"Sandy Bottom" Is an uncouth name, yet
It stands for a play that Is clearcut.
sparkling and homelike. It certainly pleas
ed the audience. Even a play so full of
heart-beats ns "Sandy Bottom" could not
find favor unless presented by a capable
cast. It is pleasant to note that those
.who took part gave a good account of
themselves and the earnestness with
which tho different
their work gave a distinct value to tho
character of tho play. Louette Babcock
as "Sue Mewsom." displayed marked abil
ity in tho conception of her part and R.
E. French as "Col. Jed Carter" was good.
Equally so were Jacques Caldwell as
"George Bowcn," a tourist, and Little
Dixie as "Little Bill Snooks." Al Jones
and W. S. Sanders made a merry pair of
village worthies. The comedy part was
well sustained by Edward Allen, as
"Zachariah," a colored man with a fond
ness for chickens and plantation songs.
There were enough moonshiners in the
play to make it interesting and thrilling
and the scenery, showing gulches along
the Ozark Mountains, is well worth see-
ing.
"Sandy Bottom" will be seen at Cor
dray's Theater every night this week,
with Saturday matinee.
ROCKIES TO RIVAL ALPS.
.
Monntnln-Climlilnsr In Colorado for
Tourists.
Denver Times.
Mountain-climbing Is to be featured tho
coming year by the railroads as onA nf th
drawing attractions of Colorado. During
the past few years there has been a grow
ing tendency of tourists frcm the East to
follow the fascinating sport of the Alps in
Europe, and the railroads see in this ten
dency a drawing card which will induce
many more people to come to the state.
Some of the mountains in Colorado avail
able or this sport are equal to some of the
most famous of the Alps, and It is only a
question of time until mountain-climbing
will be looked upon as one of the most
interesting things to do while touring the
West.
Long's peak, which Is reached by a trip
through Estcs Park and a stage ride from
Estes, has perpetual glaciers upon It, and
an ascent to the summit Is filled with all
of the thrilling excitement and dangerous
experiences which fascinate the thousands
of tourists to the Alps. It takes about a
week to make the trin to thn summit nrul
i back, and to make the most perilous as
cents reoulres a. thoroiiirhK'
guide, pikes, long ropes to hold the party
together and. the daring spirit which
makes mountain-climbing so fascinating.
Gray's peak is another mountain which
will Involve a ride over the Colorado &
Southern, and the Georgetown loop to Sil
ver Plume, where pack mules carry tho
tourist to the base of the peak. The Colo
rado Midland will feature Mountain Mas
sive, near Leadvlllc, which Is the highest
mountain In tho state, being 14,424 feet,
according to Government reports, and
while not so difficult of ascent well repays
the tourist for the trip on account of the
magnificent view which is obtained. Tho
peak is reached by conveyances from
Leadville, which take tho tourist to the
base of the peak. Pack trains can then
carry them half way to tho summit, where
burros are dropped for the ropes, pikes
and guides.
Mount Soprls, near Carbondale, .comes
nearer being the Eastern traveler's Ideal
of a mountain than any In the state on
account of Its great altitude, 14,300 feet,
and tho absence of foothills, which nakes
It seem of Immense magnitude. It rises
almost straight from the valley, and the
rivers in the valley and the mountains on
the opposite sides form a panorama which
is worth a journey to tho top to behold.
A Berry at n Tinie.
Philadelphia Record.
"I never see these high-priced Winter
strawberries that I'm not reminded of my
wife's plight when she, for tho first time,
visited at an English country house," re
marked the man, whose wife goes abroad
a good bit. "A servant passed an attrac
tive dish of theso delicious red berries to
her, and. lucklessly enough, she had ne
glected to see what tho hostess did, as
she'd been talking with tho man next her.
She didn't know if tho whole dish was In
tended for her or what. Of course, her
only course was to decline them outright,
and you may imagine her relief when one
of tho guests took one, and the hostess
begged her to take two. I do not, however,
think as many mistakes are due the straw
berry as tho English hothouse grape. Per

Contracted Disorders, Acute or Chronic
Under the treatment pursued befor"e Irrigations were established, six weeks was
considered the duration of an acute contracted disorder. If It proceeded beyond
six weeks It was considered to have pone Into chronic condition. From statistics
complied Jfrom our practice In the past Ave years, covering over C50O cases, we can
show thai 00 per cent of our patients have recovered In fourteen days or less. It
Is. therefore, equally proper to hold that a case not entirely cured within two
weeks must bo considered as chonlc ono and some complication has arisen for
which the patient should see a specialist.
