Fay will learn with profound regret of her death. She expired yesterday afternoon at her residence, 250 Madison street. Mrs. Fay was born in Syracuse, N. Y., March 13, 1838, and was in her 68th year. Her early life waSKspent in her native town. In 1S61 she was married in Appleton, Wis., to Charles L. Fay, who survives her. It was indeed sad that her death should occur on the 42d anniversary of her mar riage. Accompanied by her husband, she arrived in Portland In tho Spring of 1SS4 and has since resided here. She was i devout Christian, being an earnest work er in the First Congregational Church of this city during the entire time of her residence In Portland. Among her Chris tian friends she was affectionately known as "the little mother," and although a great sufferer from ill health during the last years of her life, she was always smiling and cheerful, with a kind word for every one. She leaves one son, Pro fessor Charles R. Fay, of New York City. Services will be held at the First Congre gational Church Saturday, September 5, at 2 o'clock. Friends are invited.

Deputy County Assessor North hss been chasing after automobiles of late, and says It is diffi cult to catch some ol them. The object of his racing and chasing is not to match his speed with these machines, but to se cure information in regard to them to be used in properly assessing them, after they are placed on the tax roll. He says there are between 30 aad 40 automobiles "running wild" in this county, and the lowest valuation placed pn any of them is $500, while some of them are worth much more. The taxes on them will amount to something. Examination for Library Assistants. An examination for library assistants will be held on Tuesday, September 22. There will be one vacancy this Fall.

The comnltteo has -worked hard trying to fen i Invitations to every Mazama. but if in the hurry any have been overlooked it is hoped that this announcement will be sufficient, with the assurance that all will be welcome. Colonel Hawkins promises that tie journey up the trail to Macleay Park will bo leisurely taken, but all the same It is expected that stout Mazamas will part with three pounds of avoirdu pois, and that lean Mazamas will add three pounds to their weight by the out ing. From 8 to S:30 o'clock friends in the city can, if they like, gaze on the hill back of St Vincent's Hospital, and "look out for the stick." for about that time Colonel Hrwklns doughty brigade will light their Chinese lanterns and set off their illuminations. Apart frdm the lunch. one of the most enjoyable events of the outing will be short speeches from Ma zamas, in which stories about recent out ings will be told. Black Bass and Ducks in Market. People who went hunting on the 1st Inst and got no ducks, and others who have gone out to Columbia Slough fishing for bass without catching any, have been as tonished to see young ducks by the score and bass by the hundred displayed for sale in the markMs. It makes them think that there are others who are better duck hunters and bass fishermen than them selves. Something over 100 bass of all sizes, from a quarter of a pound up to three pounds In weight were brought In to a market by one man Thursday, and found ready sale for the large ones at 30 cents j per pound. The fact that many citizens have not yet been able to get a bass to try for the quality of that fish accounts for the high price paid for them. Some six dozen young wood ducks and a few others, mostly widgeon and mallards, were displayed in front of a market yesterday and sold readily at 51.25 a pair. Some sportsmen found fault because several of tho fowls are too small, and accused the man who killed them of being a "pot hunter." Most of the young ducks were nearly full grown -and all in fine condi tion, and the flappers vill have grown big enough to fly In a week or two more. Accidents Cause Bltndness. As a re sult of two accidents In alighting from an electric car, which happened about a year apart the father of Dr. P. S. Langworthy, who Is about 70 years of age, has become entirely blind. He lives with a daughter on East Taylor, near Thirtieth street, and of late has so far recovered from his in juries as to bo able to get out doors and walk a little for exercise. A wire is stretched the length of his daughter's yard, on which is hung a loop of wm, which he takes hold of, and walks bacK and forth guided by the wire, until he has had exercise enough. It is about three years since he was injured the first time, by being thrown down as he was alight ing from a car. Ke fell in a sitting oosl tlon, and his hip was damaged, and as a result he lost the sight of one eye. About a year later he met with an almost pre cisely similar accident, the other hip be ing Injured. Ho was laid up a long time on account of this injurs', and finally it resulted in the loss of the sight of his other eye. He has been able to get out, a little for two or three months, but enter tains no hope of recovering his sight and about his only pleasure now is In taking exercise as stated. Fire Department Buildings Need Re pairs. It Is evident that the city wllV soon have to provide some money for the bet terment of the buildings of the Fire De partment The cost of maintaining the department at present is $9000 at month. This covers salaries, repair of engines, wear and tear of horses and plant gen erally, but goes no further, so there Is no money left to provide new engines, hy drants, etc., rendered necessary by the growth of the city, and no fund for the repair of buildings. These buildings are all becoming dilapidated; some have leaky roofs, and all need painting, as none of them has been painted for 20 years. The house of No. 5 engine company leaks so badly that the men of the company re fuse to sleep there in rainy weather. In some of the houses there are no bath tubs. The bell tower between Morrison and Alder needs repairing; attention was called to its leaning condition not long ago. These statements have been submit ted to E. D. Curtis, of the fire committee, and he admits that they are substantially correct This being the case, it Is high time some steps were being taken to pro cure money to put the buildings, etc., to rights. Rev. H. J. Talbott Returns. Rev. H. J. Talbott and family have returned from their August vacation, spent at White Salmon, on tho Jewell farm. Dr. Talbott will occupy his pulpit at the First (Taylor Street) Methodist Episcopal Church to morrow. The audience-room Is being re furnished and redecorated, at a cost of several thousand dollars, and will be ready for occupancy about October 1. Services in the meanwhile will be held In the lecture-room of the church. Bodt op Unknown Man Found. With nothing upon it by which identification could be made, the body of an unknown man was found by S. H. Howard yester day morning floating near the mill of the Peninsular Lumber C(5tnpany. It was taken to the establishment of Coroner Fin ley, but there were no papers or marks of any kind by-which the name of the unfortunate could be obtained. The body was subsequently buried at the Poor Farm. Card Sharps Fined. The cards have all been dealt out in the case of Carlton G. Nine against E. E.

If a child of loyal, true Americans (whose home was in the Unltefl States) happens to be born abroad while the parents were visiting In a for eign country, .would that disqualify the child from tho'PresIdency? RATHER ROUfiH WELCOME NETP ARRIVAL IN PORTLAND HELD UP FIRST NIGHT. Unxnaslced Robber Spring From Be hind "Woodpile and Embrace Him and HIa Money. Stepping out from behind a high wood pile on Seventh between Salmon and llaln streets two highwaymen held up Stephen Spencer last evening about 11 o'clock. A J20 gold piece was their reward. Spencer, who came originally from "Vir ginia, arrived in Portland yesterday morn ing from Montana, where he had been for several months. On the very first night of his stay in this city he was made to pungle up to the robbers who are doing an excellent business just now. The men who robbed Spencer wore no masks. While he was passing the end of the woodpile, the first robber stepped from behind its shelter and threw his arms around the victim's -body. Turning around. Spencer took a good look at the highwayman's face. Then a second man stepped in front of Spencer and, after In timidating him with a revolver, proceed ed to go through his pockets. These con tained a 520 gold piece and 40 cents in small change, besides his watch. The time- apiece was returned, as was also the silver. JUt tne roDDers Kept tne v-v, tor a uounia eagle cannot be Identified. After the robbers were through wltn Spencer, they directed him to go on with out looking behind. He went for a dis tance, but soon went to the police station and told of the occurrence. 'I've been in almost every state in tho Union, but this Is the first time I have ever been held up," said he. "They didn't treat me roughly. The first one seized me in his arms, so that I could hardly move, while the other went through my pockets in a few moments. I guess the watch wasn't good enough for them. I bought it when I went to Heppner at the time of the flood." Accompanied by Officers Phillips and Austin In plain clothes, Spencer made a tour of every place in the city where a hold-up man might go after making his "touch." The saloons along the water front south' of Morrison street, as well as the North End. were carefully searched, but no men of the descriptions given by Spencer could be found. The fact that the robbery last evening was committed one and a half blocks from the spot where C. P. Potter was held up Thursday evening leads tho police to the belief that it was the same men in both instances. The men are described by Spencer as follows: Both about 25 years of age; one slightly heavier than the other; the man who held the pistol and went through Spencer's pockets was dicssed in a gray suit with a light felt hat. The other had a black slouch hat and a light mustache. Both were of medium height. HELD UP UXDEIl ELECTRIC LIGHT. T. P. Burke Is Robbed By Unmasked IlifiThTrnyman. Under an electric light and wrearlng no mask a bold highwayman held up J. P. Burko Thursday night at the corner of Ninth and Everett streets. Burke was on his way to his home, 506 Everett street and -was thinking of nothing less In the world than a robber. Suddenly a man of medium build stepped out from behind a projecting building and ordered the aston ished pedestrian to throw up- his hands. A revolver prevented all argument The robber secured SS.50 from Burke and went his way. So did Burke, but Inwardly wrathy. He notified tho police of the rob bery, but the news was carefully sup pressed. Burke describes the highwayman as be ing of medium build, wearing clothes of good material and excellent fit. His hat was of the soft variety with no crease. The robbery was committed about 11:15, while many people were yet upon the streets. Ninth and Everett is, however, a rather unfrequented neighborhood, and there were apparently no witnesses to the little financial transaction. FOR ROBBERY AT PASCO. Detectives Catcli Accused HlBhTvny uinn, but Not for Portland Holdup. On a telegraphic description from Sher iff J. D. Peck, of Pasco, Wash., Frank A McDonald, wanted in that town for high way robbery, was arrested by the city de tectives. He was employed at the mill of the Western Lumber Company and board ed at a hotel at Sixteenth and Savier streets. McDonald denied the charge, but did not reiterate his statements, as he soon saw that the detectives knew enough of the description of the man they wanted to hold him without trouble. McDonald, it Is alleged, committed high way robbery In Pasco several weeks agq. He left the town at once, and, coming to Portland, put up at the Barr Hotel. Here he was .recognized by a Pascolte who told what he had seen to the local Sheriff. A missing finger joint In the description tallied so exactly with the hand of Mc Donald that the detectives believe they have found the man wanted by Sheriff Peck almost to a certainty. TO PROTECT CHIEF HUNT. Brass Railing Prevents Intrusions of the Pnbllc. Round about the desk of Chief Hunt has been erected a beautiful brass rail ing. It's a handsome affair. It's about four feet high, and the piping of which It Is made Is fully two Inches thick. Sup ported by stout posts of similar dimen sions the golden rail Is an ample protec tion to the person of Chief Hunt It would be a reckless man indeed, who would dare for a single second to attempt to pass the shining barrier Into the forbidden land beyond. It's just a little suggestive of prison bars, but perhaps it was placed there for tho purpose of striking terror into the unfortunates in the sweat box by the unpleasant similarity. Calmly from behind the golden rail Chief Hunt Issues his commands. Shel tered by the brassy barrier from the troubles of the station, the man who or ders and who must be obeyed is lord in deed. Shot at Hlelivrnymen. After throwing stones to attract the attention of S. Seltz, the nlghtwatchman in the yards of the Union Depot, two highwaymen attempted to hold him up, so ho believes. The attempted robbery took place at an early hour yesterday morning. While making his rounds In the yards the men threw stones at him and then called upon Seltz to i throw up his hands. Instead he shot at them three times. They ran away through the yards, occasionally stopping to hurl a stone in his direction. COMING ATTRACTIONS. Gilt Edpe Programme at Empire. Rarely have local theater-goers' had a vaudeville programme of such general ex cellence presented to them as Is offered this week at the Empire Theater. The spectacular work of the Japanese troupo of jugglers Is gilt-edge. Tho melodious singing and mandolin playing of the three Kuhns, and the comedy of Louie Dacre, Trask and Rogers and many others fill out a most attractive programme. "Nothins Like It Outside New York." "There's nothing like it outside of New York," is the comment made by theatrical experts upon the German comedy act of Raymond and Caverly. This duo of dia lect artists will appear at the Empire Theater next week beginning on Monday, September 7. They receive the highest salary paid to any similar act in, the world today and have just closed a star ring tour with the Rogers Bros.' plays. They are not making a reputation as fun producers, they have made it and local theater-goers cannot fall to appreciate the gilt-edge character of their work. ScaxoH Ticket Sale at the Baker. The scores of regular patrons of the Baker should remember that if they de sire to reserve season seats at that thea ter they must apply at the box office next Monday morning at 10 o'clock. Only those wanting tho season seats will be accom modated at that time, the regular daily advance sale not opening till next Wednesday. The season at the Baker commences September 13, when the Neill Morosco Company will present "In the Palace of the King," and will play an en gagement of eight weeks, at the end of which time the Baker Theater company will have arrived from Los Angeles. Con firmed theater-goers appreciate tho advan tage of engaging the same scats in ad vance for an entire season, as it relieves them of the worry and "waste of time in standing in line at the box office when they wish to attend a performance. The regular patron selects some particular night every week and ha3 the same scats set aside for that night throughout the season. The j?lan is most convenient for those who make a practice of keeping up to date in matters theatrical. Grace "Walton Haynie at Shields'. Of all the vaudeville acts to appear in this city none has received the complimen tary advancements contributed to Grace Walton Haynlq, who Is to appear at Shields' Park tomorrow night. The recent unpleasant notoriety gained in Seattle is responsible in part but the real cause is the fact that she did not desert her hus band, who had made her many misrep resentations, but instead sought a way to earn money to secure his release from Seattle's "cockroach bastlle." Perhaps there are many who think she should again have taken up her vocation of sten ography. Such a step would meanv a tedious wait for Mr. Haynie, so when the tempting offer was made by Mr. Shields Mrs. Haynie saw a chance to obtain Im mediate aid to secure lawyers and she accepted. She did so because she was confident she could present a better specialty than many of the vaudevllllans who have apearcd In Portland. Both Man ager Shields and Mr. Bronson have coached her all week. They say she will be a pleasant surprise, and they ought to kno. Matinee at Cordray's. There will be a matinee at Cordray's Theater this afternoon when "The Hills of California" will be produced, and again in the evening for the last time. The Mordant-Humphreys Company will open at Cordray's Theater tomorrow night In "The Legion of Honor," a play new to Portland audiences, and. one of the most pleasing plays of Its type that has ever been produced anywhere.
