their two children. The parties were
married in 1SS9. and resided in Portland
four years. Dr. Keller conducted a water

that her husband began to ill treat her
in 1S99 by striking her and calling her
bad names, and kept it up from week to
week. He went to Dresden in June, 1901.
and returned In October. He continued
his 111 usage and told hpr to get a divorce.
She said he threatened to kill her. came
home nights Intoxicated and spent his
money In dissipation. Mrs. Keller stated
that she had $1000 when she married Dr.
Keller and be didn't have a cent, but ap
propriated $15,000. which they afterwards
earned, to his own use. He left her some
time ago. going to Germany, and took
$11,000 with him. Mrs. Keller was decreed

comprising three and one-half acre-
worth $3S0O, and 4000 shares of mining

The bonds of matrimony existing be
tween Mary Hannauer and Julius Han
5iauer were dissolved. Mrs. Hannauer said

WHO OWNS MARQUAM BUILDING?
Demurrer Is. Argued in Suit Airnlnst
Title Gunrnntce fc Trnttt Co.
A demurrer to the answers In the suit
of P. A. Marquam against the Title Guar
antee & Trust Company, and United
States Mortgage Company to recover the
Marquam block and other propery was
argued yesterday before Judge Cleland.
The answer of the mortgage company
sets forth, among other things, that
Marquam delayed the foreclosure of the
mortgage against his property by appeal
ing to the Supreme Court and other dila
tory tactics, and pleaded that the loan
was usurious. It is alleged that the
foreclosure of the mortgage was regular
and that Marquam has no further rights
In the property, and It is asked that the
case be dismissed
The Title Guarantee & Trust Company
and J. Thorburn Ross in their answer
nllego numerous other reasons why Mar
quam is not now entitled to redeem his
property. They aver that Judge, Cleland
In his decree foreclosing the mortgage
against Marquam, held that the property
had been properly managed by the Title
Guarantee & Trust Company, as much
rents as possible collected, and thnt the
Trust Company did not precipitate the
foreclosure of the mortgage when acting
us trustee for Marquam, by neglecting to
pay the interest notes, but failed to pay
the Interest because there was not suf
ficient revenue realized from the property
ovc and above expenses to do so.
Attorneys E. B. Watson and A. H. Tan
ner, representing Judge Marquam, moved
to strike out everything in the answers
except the part relating to the decree of
the Supreme Court in the foreclosure suit.
This decree fixed the amount due the
mortgage company, and the claim or lien
of theTitle Guarantee & Trust Company
under the trust deed from Marquam.
Counsel argued that all other matters
pleaded In the answers were Immaterial.
Oleesrs. Tanner and Watson say that the
Supreme Court in its decree did not termi

Title Guarantee & Trust Company, and

PLANS THREE BRIDGES.
City Engineer at Work on Cost of
Spanning Marqanm Galch.
City Engineer Elliott is endeavoring to
find time to get work started on plans and
estimates for two or three large bridges
suitable for spanning iMarquam Gulch. He
has an Idea that three bridges will be
built there very soon. Residents in the
district south of this gulch, however,
are clamoring for some improvement
there, either a fill or a bridge. The City
Engineer intends to prepare plans and es
timates for a steel bridge and a com
posite bridge so that the cost of these
can be compared with the cost of a fill,
and a decision awarded as to whether a
bridge or a fill will be the cheapest and
best.
The bridge on First street across the
Marquam -Gulch has been put in fair con
dition and wm last for a year or perhaps
two. anu then sometnlng will have to be
done. It Is not advisable to wait till the
present old bridge Is entirely worn out,
before making calculations as to what
it is to be replaced with.
There Is such a vast amount of work
cn hand in the way of street and side
walk improvements and sewers that the
engineer and his entire force are as busy
?s bees, and the Council is constantly
cutting out more for them. -Mr. Elliott
is at a loss to know how or when he Is
to get time to make the plans and esti
mates mentioned.
Notices for new sidewalks have been
served to the number of over 200 on the
East Side, and about 150 on the West
eide. It Is no unusual thing for deputy
engineers to have ten orders to" set stakes
for new sidewalks in one day. On March
2, 3 and 1 each of four surveyors, kept on
street work, had on their books about 10
such orders, which occupied their entire
time. There .s a very large number of
street improvements, requiring a vast
amount of figuring, on hand, and such
improvements were Inaugurated by the
Council on Wednesday.
The xact is, that since the hard times
began In 1K3. very little has been done
in the way of street -Improvements, and
the streets are now in a condition which
calls for a vast amount of work, and It Is
all coming In in a flood, which bids fair to
overwhelm the city officials. There are 23
sewers building, and petitions are coming
in from outside additions for the opening
of avenues and boulevards: from Love's
Addition away out beyond Piedmont, from
Sellwood, and from away down north
along the Columbia River road, and from
every point of the compass, come peti
tions asking for street improvements.

HOW TO FIX THE STREETS
PROCEDURE REQUIRED BY
XEW CITY CHARTER.
CobbcH Determines Nature of the
Improvement a-l Executive Board
Carries oa tke Work.
The great activity in street improve
ments promises to make notable changes
in Portland in the coming year. This will
add materially to the expenses of the
city, but most of the property-owners
realize that It will cost something to put J menccd work, would have solved the
all the streets In proper condition, and j problem of Columbia-River transporta
they regard the Investment as legitimate ! tlon by the only feasible plan of contin
and one that will bring returns In many i uous boat transportation by means of a
ways. As to the procedure to be ob- canal built between The Dalles and Ce
served in all street Improvements, the t lllo. The promoters of the portage road
following explanation by Auditor Devlin : admit that it is only a makeshift till the
will be interesting to all taxpayers
"In the matter of street improvement
there Is vested in the Council the power
to determine the kind of imorovement on t
each street; the property-owners have i
no voice in determining wnat Kina oi i
Improvement shall be put down, but if
the owners of two-thirds of the property
remonstrate against an Improvement, it
will be discontinued, and thereafter no j
action shall by taken by the city fo
period of six months, unless the owners
of more than one-half the property shall
within that time petition for the im
provement. "The city will hereafter keep streets in
repair for a certain period of years after
the improvement 13 made, but Is not re
quired to repair streets formerly Im
proved and now in bad conjitlon. Before
the Council proceeds with an improve
ment It will require from the Engineer
plans and specifications for an appropri
ate Improvement on the street proposed
to be Improved; also an estimate of the
work to be done and the probable cost
thereof. These will be on file in the of
fice of the Auditor and subject to inspec
tion by all parties Interested.
"After the ordinance providing for the
improvement is passed, the matter is
given over to the Executive Board, which
advertises for bids, awards contract, ap
proves bonds, supervises work and does
all other acts to secure the faithful car
rying out of all contracts, and the mak
ing of the improvements in strict com
pliance with the ordinances and specifica
tions. "A particular feature of the new char
ter is the power vested in the Council to
determine the district benefited by each
street Improvement. This will enable the
Council to provide for filling gulches or
constructing bridges, and to collect the
cost from property benefited. Heretofore
the abutting property was all that could
be assessed for such Improvements, and
this resulted in an Increased price over
normal rates for the work and the con
fiscation of the property; in fact, the
property was often not worth one-half
the assessment for such an Improve
ment. "The curative clauses of the charter
(sections 400. -401. -402 and 403) are to cor
rect inaccuracies when any occur, to pro
tect the city, and compel property-owners
to pay the value of the Improvement
which they receive.
"That there will be a great many im
provements this year is certain. The pro
ceedings instituted thus far have been
mostly In Instructions to the engineer
to prepare plans, specifications and esti
mates of work and probable cost. If one
half of the work mentioned is completed
we will have a new city, and one of the
best In the country, so far as street Im-
proyements are concerned. There has not
been action enough In fact, none as yet
toward filling or "bridging the gulches.
This I consider very Important, as the
old bridges are a constant source of ex
pense to the city, and can eat up our en
tire repair fund without making a show
ing; they are unsightly; dangerous and
not adequate to the demands of this city.
"The cost of street Improvement has
not been decreased by the ircw charter:
in fact, it will Increase, as the vol
ume of work increases, and if we now
Improve we shall be doing. In the great
majority of cases, what we might have
done at any time in the past."
MINING MEN PROTEST.
Special Tax on Corporations, They
Say, Will Hinder Development.
You can say that the mining men of
Eastern Oregon, as well as those of
Southern Oregon, are a unit in their op
position to the bill passed by the recent
Legislature placing a special tax and
very heavy premium upon all corpora
tions, and particularly mining companies.
for the very privilege of having a name,"
said W. C. Cowgill, city editor of the
Baker City Democrat, who is here on a
short business trip.
"The mining men do not believe that
Governor Chamberlain was fully advised
of the facts In the case, or he would have
vetoed this bill. Under Its provisions, the
prospector, the pioneer, the discoverer.
the small mlneowner, has no show what
ever to develop his property or profit by
his discovery. The extremely high tax.
based on capital stock, is prohibitory. I
discover a good-looking ore ledge; I spend
$500 to $2000 in prospecting it; I find that
it has the promise of a permanent pro
ducer;-my money is all up; it is neces
sari to raise a development fund In or
der to block out sufficient ore to sell the
property at a fair profit; it can only be
done by selling shares of stock in a com
Dany formed for the purpose. Under the
present law, I cannot afford to do mis.
as it will cost me $25 for Incorporation
papers and a yearly tax of $50 to $200 on
capital stock, besides a tax on my bulla
Incs and machinery. It Is a hard law on
the poor man, and affects oil and coal
development as well as gold mining. It
will Just as certainly prevent the Invest
ment of capital In Oregon by foreign
companies, as they will not stand such
an Imposition when there are other Just
as good mining states as ours wnich en
courage foreign capital. If we keep on
making laws it will soon be so that
man cannot breathe In Oregon without
putting a nickel In the slot.
"We say up in our country: Take off
the shackles and give everybody a show
to develop the country. If rascals get
In, put them In jail: We have discovered
several In Baker City in the -last two
years, but they do hot rule the whole
country, and do not make it all black.
We have had less trickery and fraud, in
proportion to population and develop
ment, than any other mining state. The
new law only aids the scoundrel and puts
a millstone around the neck of the hon
est prospector. Take It off the books.
"There Is another bad law this Legisla
ture passed the portage railroad bill.
The masses of the people of the Inland
Empire did not want it, and there was no
excuse for it- How much of a railroad
will the $165,000 appropriated by the Leg
islature build? Everybody who knows
anything about railroad building knows
that it will cost $25,000 per mile to build
the road, or about $250,000. Where Is the
money coming from for the right of way?
Where Is the fund for operating; expenses
and equipment? Has any one ever fig
ured how much the terminals will cost?
The bill does not provide for any of these
things. When $165.fr.O of
the people's
money Is spent and about half the road
finished, and the mining interests of the
state are taxed to pay for it. where are
we at? I should suggest that if the Gov
ernor has any Idea of carrying out the
provisions of this bill he should first have
a competent Independent and skilled en
gineer examine the project and report
upon It before wasting the people's
money on a not-air ciream. it mere is
not money enough provided to carry It

"The state should not pay out one dol
lar, for the portage railroad until the con
tractors have turned It oVer.wlth a clear
title. Call for bids, make the successful
bidder give bonds, and pay him when his
job is done. That is jthe way other peo
ple build railroads. It would be a very
poor railroad contractor who could not
advance $165,000 -for the building of a sure
thing state railroad. Perhaps the advo
cates of the bill are Ioolclng for the Job
of building the road; if so, let them have
It under bonds.
"It looks to a man up a tree as though
by the time the state could get around
with enough money to build the portage
railroad and operate It. the United States
Government,
which has already com-

on a makeshift that cannot be put in
operation for years to come, and when
the canal, u permanent improvement, is
already under way, particularly when the
peopie are now so neavny uucu umi. a.

'The Inland Empire wants everything
in the way of progress, but does not want
to progress backwards. We can see no
possible excuse on the part of the law
makers for taxing .the mining Interests
of the state to death and then blowing
the money on a ridiculous portage rail
road proposition which Is bound to dost
twice the amount of the appropriation,
besides the expense of operation, and will
do no real good to any one."
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
"Camllle" Matinee.
Dumas' "Camille" will be the play pre
sented by Nance O'Nell at the Marquam
Grand Theater this afternoon at 2:15
o'clock. This will give the ladles an op
portunity of witnessing Ills O'Nell In
this, one of the most Interesting dramas
the stage has ever known, and incidentally
of again seeing the gifted actress since
her return from her triumphal around-the-
world tour.
The Jewess" Tonight.
The play tlilo evening at the Marquam
Grand Theater will be "The Jewess," In
which Nance O'Nell will assume the title
role. With tonight's play Miss O'Nell
will close her highly successful engage
ment at the Marquam, where she has
added greatly to her now legion of ad
mirers.
"The Mnn From Mea-ico."
Mr. Leslie Moroeco will present "The
Man From Mexico" at Cordray's for three
nights, starting with a Sunday matinee
tomorrow, next week. This will furnish
a strictly high-class offering in comedy
and one that will prove most satisfying
to local theater-goers. If the well-seasoned
judgment of capable critics may be taken
as accurate. The play has been a great
laughing success In the larger cities dur
ing the past two seasons, and since Mr.
Morosco eecured the rights to It. he has
endeavored successfully to keep It up to
the high standard fixed by Its production
In New York, Boston, Chicago and else
where. All the appointments necessary
to a high-class performance are carried
on tour, and the cast nas been chosen
with care and Judgment. To lovers of
genuine, hearty and pure fun, it offers
perhaps the best entertainment of its kind
ever given In this city.
Sale for "Cnptnln Swift.'
It is apparent from the sale of seats
that, although "Captain Swift" has not
been seen in Portland for some time, the
name of the play has. preceded it. "Cap
tain Swift is a drama full of romance
and mystery, which makes a lasting im
prcssion -on the onlooker. It deals with
the life of an Australian outlaw who be
comes a gentleman In London. Pathos
and comedy are not lacking in this
drama. The love story which lies in the
background creates a feeling of intense
interest as to the outcome of the outlaw's
suit. This drama will be on the boards
at the Baker Theater all next week, com
mencing with matinee tomorrow.
"The Cowboy and the Lady."
It is surprising how some of the new
stars have made permanent places for
themselves in the theatrical firmament. S,
Miller Kent, who Is starring In "The Cow
boy and the Lady," and who will be the
attraction at the Marquam Grand Theater
next Monday and Tuesday nights, March
9 and 10, will very likely appear after this
season In Charles Hawtrey s great play.
"A Messenger From Mars." Seats are now
selling for both nights.
"The Game Keeper."
"The Game Keeper" will open at Cord
ray's next Wednesday and continue the
rest of the week. The songs sung by
Thomas J. Smith this season are all new
and were expressly written for this sea
son's production. "The City of Rest" ns
TVHISKY VS. COFFEE.
A Woman Experiments.
Some families have sad experiences
with whisky. Probably twice as many
families have sickness and distress
caused by coffee and the cause not sus
pected half the time.
A woman from Tacoma, Wash., says
"One of our family had become so ill
that the doctor finally pronounced him
incurable from enlarged liver. He rec
ommended a sea voyage, which might
prolong his life, but said It was only
question of time when he would die from
the disease.
"He was dreadfully nervous, thin, could
not sleep at night, lost flesh and strength
dally, and everything he ate or drank
soured on his stomach. He was so weak
and faint he could hardly walk about
"I finally came to the conclusion that
coffee made the mischief, so took coffee
away from him altogether, and next
morning gave him Postum Food Coffee.
He steadily began to get better, and has
never had a sour stomach from that time.
He now sleeps all night where he used
to suffer the agonies of death. He has
gained over 20 pounds, and Is. well and
strong.
"My little boy was given coffee at an
early age, and he began to have spells of
sickness at times. I did not suspect the
trouble until my experience with Postum
opened my eyes, then I took coffee-away
from him and gave him Postum steadily
If you should see him now and see how
well and strong he Is you would not be
lieve It was the same puny boy he was
when he was drinking coffee.
"An acquaintance of ours carried Pos
turn with him to the gold fields of Alaska.
He says he met some men up there who
had run out of Postum and could not
drink coffee. They offered him as high
as $20 a pound for the Postum. He said
it was worth $40 a pound to him. for It
gave him strength to endure the hard

EARLY CHURCH HISTORY
Discussed at Woman' Home and
Foreign Missionary Society.
The meeting of the Woman's' Home and
Foreign Missionary Society of Taylor-
Street Methodist Church, held yesterday
at the home of Mrs. J. S. Stewart, and
conducted by Mre. lWHIam Masters, was
very interesting session to the large
number of women In attendance.
The society has taken up the study of
Via Christi," and the various papera read
esterday were upon this topic. There
were also lntrpstintr talks hv Mrs. W. TT
Saylor, whose subject was "Charlemagne," '
and by Miss F. Hale, who gave a sketch
of "Olaf the Viking."
Even if the meeting had not been as it
was. of great interest from a missionary
tandpolnt, it would have been a success
from the point of view of a lover of His
tory, for the papers, which described the
workings of the early Christian church,
were or much historical value. Mrs. H.
Talbott read a paper on the great
women of medieval history, and the
hymns sung during the devotional exer
cises were of the oldest known to the
church, some of them having been writ
ten in the eighth century. Besides Mrs.
Talbott's there were papers by Mrs. Hale,
Mrs. Oriss and Mrs. Farmer. Tea was
oerved by the hostess at the close of. this
ery pleasant afternoon.
