A coop of Guinea fowls was eecn at a commission house on Front street yesterday with sev eral persons looking over them as if anx ious to buy. They were offered at 50 cents each. One man wanted a pair to scare hawks away from Ills chickens. He said the horrid, squeaking notee these fowls made, which resembles that caused by filing a saw. had a tendency to scare hawka, and if they overcame their fright, and endeavored to steal a chicken, the Guinea fowls, which are either very brave or lack sense, would attack the hawk, even flying into the air after It. Another man wanted some of the Guinea fowls for breeding purposes. He said they are very hardy and prolific, a pair sometimes rear ing 20 or more young ones. He also said the flesh of theeo fowls had a gamey taste and smell which he liked. For some rea son, however, but few of these brave fowls are raised, and they are not often seen In the market, but occasionally are inquired for, and some times sell at J2.50 a trio. They are not large and the noise they make is so unpleasant that many persons will not have them around. Plan to Protect Firemen. Firemen are often endangered In the performance of their duties by the trolley wires of street railways or by telephone wires fall ing across them. To do away with such danger Superintendent George W. Walker, of tho Fire Alarm Telegraph, has devised a plan for taking the current off the trolley wires. Thia Is done by a rod of Iron with a hook at one end to hitch over the wire and a shoe at the other end to place on the car track. This rod Is enclosed In a wooden stick which has been epllt in halves and a groove hollowed out In each Into which the rod fits. The poles are- then covered with cord covered with shellac varnish or something of the sort which Insulates it. By hanging one of these poles on the trolley wire and placing the shoe at the other end on the track, the current Is diverted to the ground, and the cars are stopped, and the danger of tho firemen being shocked or disabled by the current done away with. x Gas to Furnish Power for Mine. The lucky owners of the celebrated ".Lucky Boy Mine," in which more pay ore Is blocked out than in all the other mines In Oregon, Is likely soon to be furnished with a plant for furnishing gas for oper ating tho machinery and lighting the mine. The company has expended some $20,000 in digging ditches and making ready for installing an electric plant to operate the mine, but have about decided to abandon this scheme. Tho agent for a company which manufactures gas for lighting, heating and power purposes is going up there to figure on a contract for putting In a plant to supply 1000 horse power of this gas, which is made from refuse wood, sawdust, peat, etc., and is said to be cheaper than electricity or coal gas. "With such a plant the company will have surplus power to sell to other mines in the district. Cats Afraid of Rats. A watchman in charge of a cannery down the Columbia was in the city yesterday and asked his. employer to supply him with a few rat traps. He was asked why he did not keep a cat. "Keep a cat," said he, "there are 40 cats about the place and only one of them will molest a rat. There are many rats and they increase rapidly, and pay no attention to the cats. Every once in awhile I get a sack of cats from an other cannery, but none of them are any good, and are just shipped to me to be got rid of. In the fishing season they live on fish, and the rest of the year they steal chickens and anything else fit to eat that they can get hold of." He was told to get some rat traps and have some of them large enough to catch cats also. He is likely to develop into a genuine trapper before lone Smiths Flourish in All Trades. The name of Smith Is a more common one in this country than most other common names and is found represented in all arts, sciences, trades, occupations and profes sions in a proper ratio. Some of the name occasionally drift Into politics, which accounts for the fact that three Smiths are members of the Oregon Legis lature now in session. Strange to say all three are doctors, which is not so easily accounted for. A Portland man visiting Balem e day or two ago inquired for Senator Smith and was astonished by being introduced to Senator Smith, of Yamhill, and Senator Smith, of Umatilla County, before he coud find Senator Smith, of Multnomah County. He was still more astonished when told that they were all doctors. Cathedral Opening in April. The committee, which has charge of the erec tion of the cathedral being built by the Scottish Rite Masons of this city, "begin to feel as if their work was approaching completion. The glazing of the windows will be completed today. The painters will be through with their work in 10 days, finishing the auditorium in white and gold, and the $10,000 organ ordered was shipped on January 17 and will soon arrive and bo installed. If all goes well the grand opening of the cathedral will take place about tho middle of ADriL when many will have an ODDortunltv to view the splendors of the building, to witness some or tne imposing ceremonies con nected with the opening and to hear the music of the organ. Bot Mangled in Street-Car Accident. Although little "Walter Newman, a ward of the Children's Home, was badly man gled Tuesday in a street-car accident, the doctors still hope to be able to save him. The boy is being cared for at Good Samaritan Hospital, where every possible attention is being given him. Contrary to the ordens, Walter wished to try his luck at coasting after the first light fall of snow. He sliDned awav nnfl waa tirinn. down the sidewalk when he saw a street v. tuuiiue u, meet mm.

The sewers of the city have passed through the late heavy rainstorm without any serious damage, although many of them are not so large as they should be. A small sewer which carries the drainage from the slope of Mount Tabor to the large Sunnyslde sewer, 32 Inches in diameter, became choked with sand. But no worse damage was done than the flooding of a few cel lars. The sewer In Stark street, between Fifth and Sixth streets, which was con structed 'many years ago, when the city was small, never was large enough, being only 12 Inches in diameter. -It was unable to meet the recent demand made on It, and the water filled the manholes and flooded a few cellars. The section of this sewer between Fourth and Fifth streets was dragged with a chain and found to be encrusted with a thick deposit of grease or tallow, adhering to the bottom. Large blocks of. this 'oleoglnous matter were taken out, and the men think they would have secured much more if they had been able to keep the chain hot. The grease Is supposed to have come from the slops of restaurants, and from engine rooms where much machinery Is constant ly being oiled. It would hardly answer to fry doughnuts ,in, but If a stream of boil ing lye could be forced through the sewer. It might be practical to operate a soap factory at the end. This would be better than to allow the sewer to keep" on lard ing the lean earth and furnishing un wholesome food to the carp In the river. One of the spectators who saw the grease taken out of the sewer thought It had been put In there to make the sewage run off easier. Stuuck Water, Not Oil. The Colum bia River Development Company, which has been boring for oil on the Washington side of the Columbia River, opposke Cas tle Rock for the past six weeks, struck a flowing well of artesian water last Thursday at a depth of 167 feet The well casing is D5i Inches in diameter. Tho spouting water rose to a height of 3 feet above the large casing, and when this Is reduced to a diameter of 3 inches. It will rise to 40 feet Tho top of the casing Is 15 feet above the surrounding country, so the well Is bound to boof great value for irrigation purposes. Double crews are at work night and day boring down as rapid ly as possible. This discovery has raised quite a stir in that section, as water for irrigation was much needed in that sandy country. Many piecesjof school land have been bought up; In fact all the vacant land within eight miles of the well has been taken up. Within the past 10 days three surveyors have been kept busy sur veying claims. There is considerable gas escaping with the water. It burns when a match is touched to it and it Is naturally supposed that there Is oil not far away. It is supposed that artesian water can be struck at the same depth on the Oregon side of the river, where there Is a large scope of sandy country, which is now practically a desert As the soil is good and free from rocks, and can all be plowed, it is bound to become very valu able when water is available for irriga tion. Go Slow About the Weather. People who are praying for fine Spring weather should not clamor too much for fear it may come too soon. There has been rather a longer continuous spell of un pleasant weather of late than is usual here. It has been mild, however, none of the cold days and nights which make life miserable in so many less favored places and render It almcst unendurable here. People should remember that Janu ary is drawing to a close and the chances for a really bad spell of weather are less ening every day. Should the weather turn fine before February 2, It will be a great misfortune, for on that day the ground hog comes out of his burrow to size up the situation and If the sun shines so that he can see his shadow, he goes under ground again and prepares for six weeks more of winter weather. Therefore every one should be content to let the weather remain gloomy and disagreeable till after "groundhog day," and then when It clears off. the fine weather has come to stay. It Is to be hoped that those who have in fluence with the weather clerk will bear these facts In mind and go slow. No Repairs for East Side Bridges Yet. City Engineer Elliott has not been able to shift the bridge repair gangs to the Bast Side yet as the continuous rough weather htas delayed the completion of the work the men have had Jn hand on the West Side. He has been anxious to get the repairs to the Willamette Heights bridge completed and this job will be wound up and the cars running across tho bridge this week. Some of the men are at work framing timbers for the re pair of the Front-street bridge across the Woods-street gulch, and this bridge will be completed In a short time and then the repair gangs will be transferred to the East Side to make necessary repairs there. The men have had rather a rough time of late, as the work they have been employed on was urgent and had to be pushed as rapidly as possible and the weather has been unfavorable for such work most of the time. A Prominent Young Business Man de serts his sweetheart because she falls to keep a clean mouth. So wives and sweet hearts beware. Make sure that your teeth and gums are kept In a perfectly healthy condition, as there Is nothing so repulsive as unsightly teeth and a foul breath, which always accompanies those conditions. You may have sparkling eyes, a beautiful com plexion and winning ways, but If you have bad teeth your beauty is destroyed; but not forever, because in these days of "mod ern dentistry we' are able to correct and overcome all these defects, and you may again be as beautiful as you were at 16.

Tho question of- a new scale In carpenters' wages is still in abeyance for the Master Builders' Association took no action on the communication from the carpenters at their meeting Tuesday evening, and at the meeting of local union No. 50, qf 'the United Brotherhood of Carpenters and Joiners, last evening no further steps in regard to the new scale were taken. 'The scale making the minimum 53 50 a day for carpenters has been indorsed by tho Build ing Trades Council and the union men "ex pect little opposition to their request The higher rate of pay amounts to an increase of 50 cents per day and the carpenters de clare that this has become necessary through the Increased cost of living during the past two or three years. Examinations for Teachers. School teachers as well as pupils are preparing for examinations for the semi-annual ex amination for the teachers of Multnomah County, which begins February IL Four days will be occupied by the test, which will probably be held in -the Park School. The examination for the various county grades take two days and the work neces sary to obtain a state certificate fully oc cupies the. other two. The subjects of these examinations Include such neces sary parts of a teacher's education as school law, orthography and physics' as well as the subjects taught In the gram mar schools. The last examination was held on August 13. when 125 young men and women crowded three rooms of tho High School. Records Mutilated. County Clerk Fields has discovered that two pages have been torn out of the 1899 tax roll in the place where the names of Smith and Schmidt appear. When the mutilation occurred he cannot telL It may have been done recently, or a year or two ago. It is possible for' a leaf or two to be removed If it is neatly done, and to pass unno ticed for some time if the clerks are not suspecting anything of the kind. The per son who took out these two pages, no doubt had a malicious motive in doing so. The books are Intrusted to many hands, including lawyers and abstractors. They will be more carefully watched In future. Phtsician Wants Home in strictly pri vate family, address "Central," care Oregonian. Mann, the Seedman. Agent Burpee's Seeds. J. J.

Harris ....Harry Wood George Shelby Al Wilson Skegga Will Warden Haley R. C. Raymond Stetson's spectacular production of "Uncle Tom's Cabin," under the direction ot George Peck, with two editions of the famous Topsy, who "was not bo n, but growd," and two copies of Marks, tho lawyer, was presented at the Marquam Theater last night before a large ' audi ence. The story told on the stage differs from the current version so familiar to play goers of the present and past generations. There are five scenes, and Simon Legree, the brutal planter, does not make his ap pearance at all until the fifth act. Tho company Is a large and enthusiastic one, and every member of it does his and her best Much of the -vale-of-tears aspect is cut out of the production, fortunately, and really humorous Incidents serve as con necting links to light up the play. Tho character of Uncle Tom is well taken by Tom Davis, and he fpllows closely to tho classic portrayal of this part no doubt followed by dozens of Uncle Toms since the play was first put on the boards. In the first act there Is the thrilling scene in which Eliza, tho fugitive wife, flees with her baby across the ice over the Ohio River, pursued by Markses, the lawyers, and attendant bloodhounds. The' part of Eliza Is taken by Emma Barker, and would be much improved If she would speak more distinctly. The palm must be awarded to the two Topsys, two little colored girls, Flossie Tucker and Parnell Johnson, who danced, acted and attended to the comedy depart ment in first-class style. They created nearly all the laughter by their funny an tics and repartee. Phineas Fletcher, a Kentuckian, was strongly portrayed by George Hurst A laughable scene took place when Gumption Cute, a speculator, played by Harry Mock, pays a visit to his relative. Aunt Ophelia, of Vermont (Marie Romerlll). and Interrupts her love making with old, white-haired Deacon Perry, played by H. R. Parkhurst Tho buck and wing dancing was excellent and there was an exciting cakewalk, partici pated in by four couples, in which one couple won a toothsome cake. The cast ing vote was decided by the audience. A number of plantation songs were sung. The transformation scene. Illustrating the ascension of Little Eva, Baby Irma, is worth seeing. "Uncle Tom's Cabin" will be presented at a matinee this afternoon, and will close with the performance to night "Charley's Annt" a Winner, That merit will win Is being demon strated at the Baker Theater this week. The production of "Charley's Aunt" Is acknowledged by the general theater-going public as being one of the funniest comedies seen on tho local stage ior a number of years. Large houses are a usual thing at this popular playhouse, but "Charley's Aunt" is drawing better than that By the time the curtain goes up each evening every seat In the house Is sold, and a number are forced to tako seats for the next night It has been seven years since Charles Frohman's company presented; this mirth provoking comedy at the Marquam Grand. It did phenomenal business at that time, and, being familiar with the merits of the play. Manager Baker succeeded In secur ing the rights to present it knowing full well that his efforts would be appreciated. The royalty on plays of this character Is very high, and for that reason the ordin ary traveling organization cannot afford to play them. It requires an exceptionally strong company to present a comedy like "Charley's Aunt thereby making It im possible for managers, unless wealthy like Frohman, to take a chance on the road. "Charley's Aunt" will be on the re mainder of this week, with a matinee Saturday, and the advance sale of scats indicates capacity business at each per formance. COMING ATTRACTIOXS.

"Carmen," Saturday afternoon "II Trova tore,"and Saturday night In the double bill, "II Pagllacci" and T'CavalIeria KSstl cana": "The Gordon-Shay Opera Company, which opened at the Broadway Theater last night in "Carmen," Justly deserved the big audience which had assembled ready to be pleased, but just as ready to criticise. A very pleasant feature of last night's performance was the concise enun ciation of the various soloists. Too much cannot be said in praise of Miss Rose Ce celia Shay, who sang the title role. Her voice Is clear and sweet and her dramatic ability is very noteworthy. Considerable praise is due the management of the Gordon-Shay Opera Company for assembling such a competent array of talent, which Is probably the best company that has ever sang grand opera In English In Denver.
