Boon vt Eastern 3Iui.tnoilui- Things are booming In Eastern Multnomah Coun ty, and there are evidences of prosperity on every hand." said a business manivbo returned yesterday from an excursion Into that section- "I spent several hours in the neighborhood of the Powell's Valley Fostofilce." he continued, "and the road ivas busy all the time with teams coming end going, hauling lumber and large quan tities of railroad ties, flour and farm products to the city; or returning laam with merchandise etc There was a con tinuous procession of teams extending In both directions as far as I could see. which put me n mind of a circus outfit passing with the wagons scattered along the road at Intervals. I had no Idea that there was eo much of life and business and pros perity In that part of the county. I saw many well-cultivated farms, tfood or chards, gardens, hopftelos. etc.. and much land still lying idle and uncultivated, as I was told, on account of the difficulty and expense of getting land cleared, owing to the absence of cheap labor. Some of these days Eastern Multnomah County, though not large, will support an Immense popu lation, which, on account of its nearness to Portland, will have a constant market lor everything It can produce." Y. M. C A. Officers in Conference.

A rather roughly dressett, wandering fellow, evidently a strolling musician, as he had a violin case slung over his shoulder, while going down Third street met another per son similarly equipped, but older and wilder looking, with long hair and a very crooked cane. They conversed a moment and then the latter with a swirl of his crooked cane passed on. A reporter ac costed the other and asked him what kind of a man the wild-looking one was. "Oh. some kind of a crank, I guess," was the reply. "I offered him a Job to play in a ealoon. but he' enld he would not play In a saloon. He must be some kind of a Sunday school fellow, I suppose." "Where do you hail from?" asked the reporter. "My home is in Cedar Rapids, Iowa, but I am a Bohemian, by birth." "You have no prejudices against saloons. I suppose?" "So, you bet not. I have a Job playing In one. and that is how I make my living." Smith Gets His Fill at Xast. Seeing W. K. Smith at Nvork with a hovc! on an extensive All extending across the foot of Montgomery, Market and Mill streets, a reporter inquired of a resident in that vicinity what he wtfs doing. He was told, that Mr. Smith has a tract of about ten ' acres of land where he has been having a 1111 made for the past 34 years, which Is sow about completed, the grade having been raised about 20 feet. So much time has been consumed because It has been done without any expenditure for earth, the filling being done by persons who wanted a dumping ground for earth from excavations, etc., for which they had no use. When Mr. Smith has nothing else to do he Is on hunu with a shovel show ing tho teamsters where to doposit their loads. The completion of tho fill has be come a fad with Mr. Smith.

ENJOINED FROM PLAYING. .MordRHnt-llHBipbrey Company Nar rowly Escaped Lnvrsnlt. It leaked out last night that, if the .Mor-daunt-Humphrcy Company had played "Pudd'nhead Wilson" at Cordray's The ater Sunday, Manager George I. Baker, who holds the rights of the play west of the Missouri River, would havo begun In junction proceedings against the theatrical people. Manager Baker admitted this last night, and in reply to a question said: "A lawyer is working on the case now, and may yet serve Injunction papers." It was learned that he hold? all rights for the production of "Pudd'nhead Wilson" in this city. Seattle and Los Angeles. . The same condition of affairs came to light when the Mordaunt-Hurnphrey Com pany at first proposed to open its engage ment at Cordray's Theater with Anthony Hope's "The Prisoner of Zenda," but when the company arrived here it was found that Mr. Baker had also bought the rights to produce this play, and so "Zenda" was regretfully abandoned by the Mordaunt-Humphrey people. It is not known what play they are to open with in Seattle, Sunday. Pictures Came Consternation. The baseball moving picture at Shields' Park this week has caused excitement to several people. A certain young man told his sweetheart that he was going out of town on a fishing expedition on the par ticular Sunday this picture was taken. In stead he took some" other girl to the ball game. Last night "No. 1" was his com panion to Shields' Park. His consterna tion was appalling when the polyscope showed him as big as life with his base ball friend. The programme was lost eight of in his efforts to square himself, and as the crowd was leaving be was still trying to prove an alibi. It might be well for all the girls in town and the mar ried women, too, to go and see If any of their relatives were absent on an alleged or Imaginary trip that day. Empire Theater Attractive. Those hosts of pleasure-seekers, who seek to he amused and keep cool at the same time find much that Is attractive in this week's programmo at the Empire Theater. The engagement of Julian Rose, our ludicrous and- clever "Hebrew friend," Is drawing to a close and those who have not seen this suberb act should avail themselves of the remaining oppor tunities. Van Fossen and McCauley do a black-face sketch In which they do some funny dancing, tell funny Jokes and sing funny songs. Their act has certainly made a hit. The Olson brothers, kings of the banjo, are a revelation in this line, while Zano, the illusionist, has a new line of magical tricks. Knhna Conic Xext "Week. Next week the feature of the Empire Theater's programme will be the Kuhns, three of the cleverest performers on any stage. Their playing of the mandolin and guitar Is In a class by Itself. A host of other new acts will bo presented, among them being Excella, a spectacular dancer; Louie Dacre, a fair comedienne: Trask and Rogers, fun producers; Lloyd Spencer, a monologist. and Maude Stlel, a clever soubrette. Van Fossen and McCauiey will present a screaming sketch, entitled "In a Graveyard at Night," while Zano, the illusionist, wants his coin tricks care fully watched. linn Bought "Serjrennt James." Manager George L. Baker said yesterday that he had completed negotiations with Kirk La Shelle, the owner of Eugene Walder's play, "Sergeant James," to pro duce the latter in all territory west of the Missouri River, and that he would organ ize a company selected In New York to appear In the production In about three months' time, once "The Christian" Is on the road and out of the way. Last season "Sergeant James" was one of the great successes In the East, and was particu larly a money-maker in New York City. "Sergeant James" is a play of the "Ari zona" order, and portrays strenuous West ern life. Cordray Theater Attractions. Cord ray & Russell decided yesterday that on account of the alterations and repairs of Cordray's Theater taking long er time than It was at first anticipated. the house will not be reopened .for the season until August SO, when the opening attraction will be Frank Bacon s Com pany from the Alcazar Theater, San Francisco, in "The Hills of California." The Mordant-Humphrey Company, which was to have appeared at Cordray's Thea ter Sunday In "Pudd'n'head Wilson," will open Sunday in Seattle for a two weeks' ' engagement, returning later to play at Cordray s. Amateurs Friday Nlcht. It is safe to say that the large seating capacity of Shields' Park will be tested on Friday night, when a large array of ama teur talent is to appear. A Bister team is to appear, also a cornetist. and several more peachy acts, not overlooking the tall lady who on last Friday recited some thing about Mary's woolly quadruped. Pollard Juvenile at the Marqnam. Tomorrow (Friday) morning at 10 o'clock the advance sale of seats will open for the Pollard Juvenile Opera Com pany In "The Belle of New York," which will be the attraction at the Marquam Grand Theater for four nights, beginning Monday, August 21. with a popular mat lnee Thursday at 2:15 o'clock. At .Shields' Xext Weelt Shields' bill this week might be called a novelty show. Next Sunday will start ;a week of hilarity, and all kinds of comedy stunts will be Introduced by some of the most clever funmakers on the vaudeville stage. Two big novelty acts will be added. ana not a single noidover will appear. COLUMBIA RIVER SCENERY Seen to advantage from deck of a Regulator Line steamer.

RING THE CARRIERS Chamber of Commerce Gives Aid to Delegates, INVITES CONVENTION OF IS05 Evangelical Cliarck Convention. Also Invited Tor 1007 Mining- Congress for 100-t Delegate From Seat tle to Be Entertained. Support and financial backing were promised" yesterday by the Board of Trustees of the Chamber of Commerce for the 1S05 meeting in this city of the National Association of Letter-carriers, and an invitation was extended for the meeting here in 1SOT of tho General Con ference of the Evangelical. Church. A motion to entertain returning delegates from the Trans-MlsslssIppl Commercial Congress at Seattle was referred to a special committee, and a proposal that the United States gunboats 2&arblehead and Concord be brought to this city after the close of the Astoria regatta was re ferred to tho City Council and Mayor Williams. Six members of the board were pres ent, -and in the unavoidable absence of President Livingstone, H. W. Goode acted as chairman. In the matter of an appro priation for work necessary to secure the attendance here of the National Con vention of the Letter-carriers' Associa tion, a delegation appeared consisting of Frank Stewart, chairman of the Oregon delegation of letter-carriers; WT. P. Ly man. J. M. Jones and W. H. Churchill, of the local letter-carriers' union. A let ter was read giving particulars of the work done by the letter-carriers during the last two months In the matter of bringing the National convention here in 1S03, and it went on to say: "It has been six years since the conven tion was held on the" Pacific Coast, and" considering the low railroad rates, the prevailing desire to see Oregon, the Lewis and Clark Exposition and the hearty pledges of support we have, wo believe that this Is Portland's chance to secure the convention. The convention meets this year at Syracuse, N. Y., early In September, and" our four delegates who are to attend its sessions will distribute literature advertising our city and state upon trains, boats and hotels along the route In fact, any place where such matter can be placed to dp good to Ore gon. The business community of Port land will profit by the presence here of 20M delegates for one week." It was explained that the convention holds biennial sessions, and that the only rival city looming up so far for the 1905 meeting is Qulncy, HI. The. board then appropriated 5150 to assls.t the delegates In getting the convention here. At this piece of good fortune the committee's faces beamed. Other publicity organisa tions have also made appropriations. The delegates leave for Syracuse, N. Y., either Sunday night or Monday morning. A letter was also read from N. Shupp. treasurer of the Oregon Conference of the Evangelical Missionary Society, stating that his conference at the meeting last May had extended an Invitation to secure tho attendance in this city in 1307 of the National Convention of the Evan gelical Church, and he asked that the trustees of the Chamber of Commerce also extend an Invitation. It Is expected that the sessions of the convention will last from IS to 20 days. It was decided to extend the Invitation asked for. which will be read at the general convention, which meets at Berlin, Ontario, Canada, Colonel Frank V. Drake, who has been commissioned by Governor Chamberlain to represent Oregon mining men at the sessions of the American Mining Congress next month at Deadwood. South Dakota, addressed the trustees on the advisability of securing the meeting of the congress for this city next year. Samuel Connell Indorsed what Colonel Drake had said. and stated that at the Cripple Greek convention It was arranged that If Port land would withdraw her opposition at that time she could have the' congress for 1S04. "About 2000 mining men will be here. and they are men who generally spend a good deal of money. It will be a good tning ror Portland." remarked Colonel Drake. An appropriation of $150 was made to carry out the project in sending a representative to bring the matter be fore the Deadwood congress. On tho suggestion of L. A. Lewis the meeting considered a proposition to In vite as many members of the Trans Misslsslppl Congress, now meeting In Se attle, as cared to visit this city after the close of the Seattle meetings, and the matter of entertainment was considered. A committee was appointed to confer with President Cake, of the Commercial Club, relative to entertainment and find out what could be done. It was felt that all the delegates who might visit this city for three or four days could not very well be cared for, but it was pointed out this expense would not be necessary. NEW CHARTER IS GOOD. Mayor "William Finds Only Minor Defects. "The charter has not been In operation long enough to show all Its good features or Its weak points, if It has any. but. speaking generally, I consider It very sat is factor"- This was the reply of Mayor Williams to an Oregonlan reporter, who yesterday asked him what was his opinion of the new city charter. "But. you are reported as having said that there are defects In the charter. continued the reporter, "and it is also said that you are not satisfied with its provisions in regard to civil sen-Ice." "In stating that there were defects in the charter. It was not my intention to Imply that such defects were serious, or that they Impaired the charter as an ef fective law, under which the city could otherwise be well governed. The purpose of the Charter Board was to secure a form of government that would not re quire change at each session of the Leg islature; that would provide proper re-v strictions where necessary in the admin istration of city business and at the same time provide that elasticity in other par ticulars necessary to meet the demands of a rapidly-growing city. I think. that In these respects the charter accomplishes Its purpose, and that the Charter Board is entitled to credit for its diligent labor In providing the city with the best chart er It has ever had. It has been In effect now seven months and, like a new piece of machinery on its first trial, all its minor defects are apparent. "There are a few contradictions and repetition of detail, and it is not always clear where the power In certain matters is vested. These were to be expected. but it is probable that as defects we magnify them until such time as prece dent shall establish rules that will gov ern. The power of legislation Is clearly and fully vested In the Council and the policy of the administration, aside from the laws enacted, is vested in the Mayor and Executive Board. "In those matters the charter is lucid, and at the same time I believe there Is no good reason to criticise either of these specific and important provisions. There will be mistakes both in matters of leg Islation and administration, but they are seldom so serious as the enterprising and sensation-loving newspaper reporters make out, and lime often proves after the hour of sensation is past that the official action found fault with was em inently preper. "As to the charter's provisions rela tive to civil service, I feel that they are unnecessarily long, and go a little too deep into the 'ologies,' and It may be that they have" "been interpreted and en forced with too exacting a fidelity, but such criticism of administration is un usual. The real purpose of civil service rules Is to. free public employes from partisan political influences, and to make them know that the permanency of their positions and their promotion depend upon efficiency and fidelity In the performance of duty. "I have strictly adhered to this policy and shall continue to do so. I think this end might be accomplished by a. simpler process than the charter provisions. "The routine in the matter of street Improvement Is slow and entails a vast amount of work. As it Is, streets. can be laid out and numbered, and after all that is the principal thing, and at this time the present administration is suf ficiently active, in street and sidewalk improvements, to relieve it from, the crit icism wnicn formerly prevailed. Tn its provisions for the protection of public money and in all details relative to resources, finance and taxation, the charter is excellent. In short, the chart er, as a whole. Is an improvement, but I had not Intended to talk to such length on this subject, as I feel that any ex haustive review of tho charter by me. if I deemed it necessary, should be given out through a message to the Council rather than In an interview for pub lication. GREAT BAND OF ELKS. Fifteen Hundred Strong Ther Will Go to Clambake. Last night the Vancouver Elks resolved to accompany the Portland lodge to Olym pia next Saturday. J. H. OTBryan and W. M.
