Sells Cabbage and Squashes in "Win
ter. Eastern especially New England
farmers who have to get the products
of their farms under shelter about the
time "the frost is on the pumpkin and
the fodder's in the shock" would have
been surprised if they had" been on Front
street yesterday to see Oregon farmers
selling loads of cabbage at 1 cents per
pound, and loads of Hubbard juashes
at 1 cent a pound. The cabbages were
sold as rocks, but rather small, as they
wore nearly the last in the garden. The
farmer said he had sold about 50 tons
this season. The squashes were sound and
worth $20 a ton at this season, although
the farmer .said he had sold a lot to
canneries early in the season for $6 to $7
per ton. He has a lot more to sell now
at $20 per ton. There must bo more sat
isfaction In farming in a country like this
where squashes and cabbages can be har
vested all "Winter than in the East. -where.
"Winter begins early and lasts long and
all farm products must be housed before
the cold sets in. There have been no
strawberries brought in lately, but a spell
of warm weather will ripen some.
Valuable Residence Sold. The Louis
Feurer residence, on the Cornell Road at
the head of Everett street, has been pur
chased for $10,500 by "W. E. Robertson,
of Corbett. Failing & Robertson. The
building will be thoroughly remodeled and
converted into a modern residence, as Mr.
- Robertson expects to make it his home.
Every part of the house was built ac
cording to the fancy of the former owner,
and when It was vacated by him. the
agents, Grindstaff & Blain, had some dif
ficulty in finding any one who would buy a
house of such peculiar construction.
Nearly an a.cre of ground surrounds the
hrouse, and his went with it at a price
understood to be several thousand dollars
below the actual cost of construction. The
view of the entire city obtained from the
location makes It a beautiful residence
site, and the most remarkable feature is
that the house is almost on the street
level. The grounds about the house are
nearly worth the whole price of the deal,
and Mr. Robertson has certainly gained a
very desirable residence and some valu
able property at an extremely low fig
ure. To Inspect Independence Revetment.
Assistant United States Engineer I. B.
Ogden returned yesterday from Inde
pendence, where he went to examine rock
being delivered there for a revetment to
be constructed $y the Government. The
rock is being brought from ajquarrj' at
the mouth of the Lucklamute by the
Jteamer Eugene for the Spaulding Log
ing Company, which has a contract to
supply 2500 cubic yards, more or less.
The rock is satisfactory, but the com
pany is having some difficulty in land
ing it, as it is to be placed on the bank
20 feet above low-water mark. The late
cold weather has caused the water in
the river to recede .nearly to the zero
mark. The rock, several hundred tons
of which has been delivered, is to build
a revetment to prevent a threatened
change in the channel, which has been
apprehended for some time, which would
leave Independence inland, and by divid
ing the river would injure navigation be
tween Salem and Independence.
Chinaman Liked to Aiigue. For strik
ing a Chinaman in his employ, Hugo
Tannasee, who keeps a saloon at Fifth
and Alder streets, was placed under ar
rest yesterday. His case will be tried in
the Municipal Court today. The China
man, Tan Jim, has had trouble with his
employer before. He is said to be head
strong and does not like to take orders
from his boss. For awhe it was the
Chinaman's custom to take the spltoons
out on the sidewalk in the morning to
wash them. The policemen notified the
proprietor of the place that there was
an ordinance against doing this, and he
gave orders to the Chinaman to stop the
practice. He persisted, however, and the
next day was arrested. Tannasee refused
to pay the Chinaman's fine, and said that
as he had disobeyed orders he "could stand
the consequence himself. The trouble
yesterday was of a similar nature. There
was a dispute over an order which ended
in a quarrel.
To Improve Crrr Hall Surroundings.
The gutter on Fifth street in front of
the City Hall, which was rudely con
structed of very large uneven stone blocks
placed on a soft foundation, has long
been in bad condition, the blocks having
settled down in places. At the north end
of tht block the street is considerably
higher than the concrete sidewalk, giving
It an appearance of having sunk. This
is not a proper condition of things in
front of a city hail, and the City En
gineer has undertaken to remedy It. The
gutter is to be repaved, the street to be
lowered where it is too high, and new
crosswalks are to be put in at both ends
of the City Hall, so that strangers visit
ing the building may not see such signs of
bad engineering. If they want to see bad
6treets, gutters, crosswalks, etc, there
can be plenty found away from the City
Hall.
Threatened to Kill Tenant. A col
ored doctor. Paul Cromwell, was ar
rested yesterday upon the complaint of
Mrs. E. J. Rise, who says that the doc
tor threatened to kill her. He was ar
raigned before Municipal Jtfdge Hogue
yesterday afternoon, and entered a plea
of "not guilty." The case was contin
ued until today. Mra Rise's story of the
affair is that bad threats have been made
upon her life, and that oho does not feel
safe while the man is allowed to run
about The colored doctor rents unfur
nished rooms and Mrs. Rise was one of
his tenants. Some time ago they had a
dispute, and 4t was at this time that she
says the threats were made.
Coroner's Economical Record. The
books at the Auditor's office show that
the present Coroner, J. P. Finley, Is
making a record for economy. The ex
penses of his office for the first six months,
including July and December, have been
$361 62 less than they were during the
former administration. "When asked
wherein this amount had been saved, Mr.
JFInley said. "I give all matter pertaining
to the Coroner's office my personal atten
tion. No expense is incurred unless there
Is some good reason for It."
Supreme Lodge op Lions to Meet.
3he supreme Jodge of the Order of Lions
will convene this morning In the Cham
ber of Commerce building, and delegates
from all parts of the Coast ,will be pres
ent. Portland is the home of the order,
and lri" consequence a great deal of inter
est will be displayed at the meeting this
morning, which will commence at 10
o'clock sharp.

retary H. E. Reed, of the Lewis and
Clark Centennial, received a letter from
Governor J. K. Toole, of Montana, yes
terday, saying that he would be pleased

when he arrived In Montana, and that he
thought that Montana would be In line

To Reopen First-Street Bridge. The
workmen who have so long been employed
in repairing First-street bridge across
Marquam's Gulch will be taken away to
day, and It is Intended to open the bridge
to travel on" Monday. Ju3t when street
cars will begin to run across the bridge
Is not known, as both the City & Sub
urban and Portland Railway Companies
have a franchise across the bridge, and
are looking forward to a steel bridge be
ing constructed there. The men who have
been at work on this bridge will be put
to work repairing the bridge on First
-street across the Woods-Street Gulch at
once. They will have to overhaul the
whole structure, as there Is only one
sound bent In It. which was put in last
Summer. Probably some of the timber
in the other bents can be used In the re
pair. Engineer Elliott Is anxious to get
the bridges on the "West Side of the
river put to rights before moving the re
pair gangs to the East Side. However,
the repair of the bridge on East Morrison
street between East Seventh and East
Ninth has been completed, and the work
men removed.
Track Above Grade. There appears to
be no end to the repairs which street rail
way companies are called upon to make
to streets along their lines. They are at
some work of this kind about all the time,
and as fast as one thing Is done another
comes up. Yesterday City Engineer El
liott requested Manager Fuller, of the
Portland Railway Company, to lower the
company's track on Thurman street, be
tween Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth
streets. The track on that block Is from
five inches to nothing above the street
grade, and as the street Is being Improved,
it is desired that the track be lowered.
Mr. Fuller said he would send men out to
day to attend to the matter, but. as there
would be a lot of earth to be hauled away,
in order to put In a new foundation for
the track, he was afraid that the teams
would be mired in the graded part of the
street Just how the track got so far
above the grade Is not known, but It Is
there, and will have to be lowered.
To Run City Hall Elevator. One of
the elevators in the City Hall is being
cleaned up, and the machinery for oper
ating it being put In order, and it will
be running In a few days. This will save
the new executive committee much weary
climbing up and down two flights of mar
ble stairs, which would have caused them
to realize how hard It Is to climb. This
attention to the welfare of the new offi
cials gives occupants of the various of
fices in the building hope that proper di
rectories will be placed near the main
entrance to the edifice. It appears as
If visitors to the City Hall never know
where to look for any one, and always
stumble Into the offices of others to In
quire for the person wanted. Many every
day call at the water works office tp find
the Mayor's office, two stories above, and
scores dally walk through the City Treas
urer's office to inquire where they shall
pay their license fees.
Farmer Sells a Fat Bear. The car
cass and skin of a fat bear were hung
up In front of a Third-street market yes
terday. The animal had been killing and
eating fat hogs belonging to a farmer
named Schuman, who lives near the Junc
tion of the Foster and Powell's "Valley
roads. "When ho got tired of losing his
hogs he went on a still hunt for the bear,
and after being on the lookout for sev
eral days, he killed poor bruin. He has
now secured most of his lost lard trans
formed Into bear's grease. He is eorry he
had not kept on feeding hogs to the bear
till Congress adjourned and President
Roosevelt could have come out hero to
kill it The flesh of the bear was not so
palatable to the farmer as hams and ba
con, so he sent It to market
Doctor III of Blood-Poisoning. Dr.
A. H. Johnson, of East Portland, is seri
ously ill at the Good Samaritan Hospital.
His illness is due to "blood-poisoning from
a -wound in his hand made by one of his
surgical Instruments. He' thought at the
time that the Instrument had been steril
ized nnd did not take any antiseptic pre
cautions to prevent infection. The wound
was only a slight prick In the palm of
his hand, and at the time he thought little
of It It soon began to show signs of In
fection, however, and yesterday it became I
necessary to operate upon his hand. He 1
has been much better since the opera
tion, and It Is thought that he will not
lose his hand.
To Ask Legislature for $500. The
Oregon State Poultry Association will
ask the Legislature to appropriate $500 to
pay for the prizes offered at the annual
exhibitions. Heretofore the members of
the association have paid f or the numer
ous premiums from their own pockets.
put as the organization concerns the
wnoie state, tney oeueve tnat sumcient
funds should be appropriated. The board
of directors held a meeting and' decided
upon this step, and also selected Frank
Hitchcock. . of Denver, Colo., to act as
Judge In the annual exhibition which will
be held In Portland December 2S to Janu
ary 2, 1203-4.
Prefers "Worse "Weather. "Lovely
weather, this," remarked an old friehd
to Joseph Buchtel whom he met "It Is
lovely weather for those who like this
kind," replied Mr. Buchtel. "I don't like
It I do not like the smell of frost on
the air. I prefer the balmy south wind
and a moist atmosphere. I am of the
same opinion as my old friend. Dr. J. A.
Chapman, who was Mayor of Portland
a good many years ago. He said any ono
who thought he liked frosty weather was
a falsifier, and If any one really dld like
It he showed himself of unsound mind,
as he liked to be uncomfortable."
Commercial Club Opening. The open
ing of the new and elegantly appointed
quarters of the Commercial Club will be
celebrated by the annual dinner of the
club on the evening of Saturday, January
24. Members have been notified and also
Informed that each plate will be $5, but
no one will take away his plate. The
gorgeous fitting and furnishings of the
spacious rooms are all that can be de
sired. The menu will be worthy of the
rooms and the occasion.
Sendino Booklets to Chicago. The
Board of Trade Is sending about C000 of
the Harrlman booklets on "Oregon and
Its Resources" back to Chicago to be dis
tributed by the Harrlman agents in that
district The original supply of 100,000,
which was sent at the time the books
were printed, has given out and the rail
road people want to get a new supply,
so that the good work of advertising the
state may be continued.
Bunco Man Taken to Seattle. D.
Campbell, the smooth bunco man who
defrauded Everdlng & Farrell 'out of $200
ajew days ago, was taken to Seattle yes
terday to answer to charges there. The
Seattle case seems to offer better chances
of conviction than the Everdlng & Farrell
case. The fact that he secured the money
from the firm without being forced to
sign any papers seems to make hl3 con
viction questionable.
Camera Club Election At the annual
meeting of the Oregon Camera Club the

tive board, were elected for the coming

COMING ATTRACTIONS.
Tomorrow' Matinee nt Cordrny.
One of the most powerful and exciting
theatrical productions ever, seen in this
city will be at Cordray's Theater all next
week, beginning Sunday matinee Jan
uary 18, when the new and sensational
drama "A Gambler's Daughter" comes
there. It Is a play that will Interest all.
There is love, romance, villainy, heroism,
cowardice, conspiracy, and last," but not
least, comedy in this play, and the piece
has scored a tremendous hit this season
wherever It has been seen. The plot Is
a consistent one which holds the atten
tion and interest of the audience from
start to finish. It never Jags and in It no
dull placoo can be found! The audience
is either keyed up to a hlch tension over
the wildly exciting climaxes and startling
situations, and thrilled over the ad
ventures of the heroine and her brave
young lover, or else It Is splitting Its sides
laughing at the comical antics of the
comedian and comedienne, who figure con
spicuously in the plot The serious side
of the play Is also enlivened at Intervals
by. clever songs and specialties. Absolute
ly new and very elaborate scenery Is used
In the production, and the company itself
is headed by clever Miss Lillian Hayward,
the talented and well-known leading wom
an. The usual Saturday matinee will be
given. The piece will surely attract large
and enthusiastic crowds.
"For Fair Virginia."
The offering of the Neill Stock Com
pany at the Baker all next week, starting
with the usual Sunday matinee, will be
A, L. "Whytal's great play, "For Fair
Virginia." This play contains some of
the best "characters ever written In a
drama, each one of which Is of spe
cial worth. The plot of the play la lajd In
the South- and tells the stirring story of
the Civil War. It abounds in situations
filled with intensity, climaxes that are
thrilling, and comedy of the kind that'
never falls to bo mirth provoking. "For
Fair Virginia" was seen in Portland some
years ago, it being played at tho Mar
quam Grand by the original New-York
company, of which Mr. "Whytal was. tho
star. In many, If not all, respects the
Nelll Stock Company's production of this
piece will rival that of the original. The
success attained by George Alison In "Tho
Little Minister," which Is playing to
standing room at every performance, will
be repeated In his characterization of
the part of Stephen Dunbar In "For Fair
Virginia." Miss Countiss has a splendid
part in that of Mrs. Esmond. "William
Bernard will rcel In the role of John
Laughlln.

cut Choked. Off.
NEW YORK, Jan. 16. Referring to the
proposed mouse-killing contest- In Stam
ford, Conn., -which it Is proposed, to make
a feature of a cat show, John P. Haines,
president of tho Society for the Preven
tion of Cruelty to Animals, said:
"This proposed exhibition of cruelty. If
It is seriously, proposed to bring it off,
will be stopped. I have communicated
with President William Delos Love, of the
Connecticut Humane Society, at Hartford,
advising that the affair be prevented. If
a body of New York women would pro
pose such an exhibition, I would warn
them that the law would be1 enforced, and
if they persisted In holding the mouse
killing contest I would arrest on the spot
every promoter and witness of the affair.
"The Connecticut law on the subject is
clear, and women who promote such an
affair render themselves liable to arrest"
