"Toung Mrs. "Winthrop." Where Idle Men Congregate. People who go about the city but little of even ings and seldom wander from the cen tral portion. If by chance they stroll to the neighborhood of Burnslde between First and Second streets, might imagine themselves In a strange city. The side walks are thronged with people, mostly men of the working class, not seen in such numbers in any other part of the city, the saloons, eating-houses and places of amusement are brilliantly lighted and are all thronged and sounds of revelry are heard on every hand. The throng has been greater than usual of late, and one has to fairly elbow his way along, as hun dreds of choppers and teamsters from logging camps, men from the ilsheries and worklngmen of all kinds have come to town to visit the carnival, to make a trip to the State Fair and spend a vaca tion and some of their hard-earned money in a Jollification, a relaxation from toll and hardship. Intelligence offices are nu merous in this district and on them no tices are posted of men being wanted for almost every imaginable kind of work, around which throngs are gathered most of the time. The greater number of these people will be off to their work in log ging camps, etc, in a few days, as the rainy season is not far away, and this brings spells of enforced idlness and op portunity to spend their earnings to most of them. Leonard Building Is Repaired. The damages to the upper story of H. C. Leonard's stone block at the northwest corner of First and Ankeny streets, caused by fire some six weeks ago, are about re paired. The fire broke out among the con tents of the iarge rooms in the upper story occupied by the C. F. Beebe Com pany as a warehouse for ships' stores, etc., and the flames pouring out at the windows heated the stone window Jams, arches and all the carved projections and cornice, so that, when water was thrown on them by the engines, the stones cracked, rendering it necessary to make extensive repairs. Sound stone has taken the place of that which was cracked, and in a short time all evidences of the dam age by fire will have disappeared. A new floor and ceiling have taken the place of the damaged ones in the wareroom, the "walls have been put in order and the room will bo reoccupled about the first of the month. Mr. Leonard carried no insurance, the building being of stone, so stands the expense of the repairs, which will scarcely exceed what he has saved in insurance, as the building has been stand ing since 1S7S, a quarter of a century- Street Improvements to Be Made. Contracts for improving seven streets and for building seven sewers will probably be awarded today. Proposals for the work were received several days ago by the Executive Board and were referred to the Auditor for investigation with the understanding that, where the bids came within 10 per cent of the estimate of the City Engineer, the contract would be awarded. The investigation will be com pleted and the bids referred back to the board today, and it is probable that con tracts will be awarded" at once for the following works: Improvement of East Twenty-sixth street, East Twentieth street, Fourth street, Karl street, Up shur street, East Tenth street and "Wasco street. Sewers in East Couch street, Mon roe and Gantenbein avenues, East Thirty eixth street. Going street, Prescott street, East Twentieth street and Upshur street. Few of the sewers or improvements are costly, most ranging between $1000 and $2000. "Will Live and Die a. Farmer. Boys brought up in the city do not usually take kindly to life in the countrj't especially when this involves working on a farm, but Grant Rohr, a Portland boy. Is an exception. Some ten or 12 years ago, ho left the city on account of failing health and took up his abode on a farm down the Columbia, and finally took to farming on his own account. He has been In the city several days, renewing his acquaint ance with old schoolmates and friends, and is a stalwart, hardy young man, brown as a berry and as hearty as a buck. He says he would not exchange the pleasures of life on a farm for any the city can afford, as farming suits him to a T. He has secured a farm In "Wasco County and intends to move there shortly, and locate permanently, for he is bound to live and die a farmer. Penaltt of His Devotion. E. "W. Crlchton, the well-known steamboat man, has one unpleasant memory in connec tion with his visit to the State Fair. He had his pocket picked of $15, all the change he had left, on his way home on an overcrowded car. He attributes this mishap to the fact that he had gone in company with his wife and had faithfully devoted the day to showing her around. He says that if he had been with a gang of "the boys," no pickpocket would have attempted to victimize him. He does not say -whether this "would have been "for fear of being caught in the act, or because the pickpocket would have considered him a hopeless subject. Government Positions Are Open.

Involving much wading of rapids, climbing over rugged rocks and windfalls and through thickets of en tangled vine, maple and brush along mountain streams. In fact streams which are fished with ease are usually over fished and the trout soon exterminated. Occasionally, "however, a paradise for lazy fishermen is found, where a fine catch of trout may be made while drifting down the stream or allowing the boat to "float Idly around In pools on the way, Such a place up the Cowlitz or in that region appears to have been found by Sheriff Storey and Deputy Matthews on a recent excursion. They had arranged in ad vance to have a boat hauled a 'long dis tance up the stream and then hired a teamster to drive them up to the boat, with a man to handle the oars as they floated down. They fished in several large pools on the way with great success, having captured about 160 beautiful sal mon or Fall trout. Just In from the sea, as bright as polished silver, and in fine condition and all as nearly as possible of the same size, ranging from 10 to 12 Inches In length, making a full basket and a heavy load . for both. The pools gave the fishermen a fine opportunity for displaying their skill in casting the fly, and the fiBh thoroughly tested their skill in handling them after they were hooked. Such fishing, however, is too easy and seems more like business than sport. Classifying Exhibits in Museum. Now that a large and Interesting collection of specimens has been secured for the free museum in the City Hall, and the crowd of visitors daily- shows that they are be ginning to be appreciated, Colonel L. L. Hawkins finds that his work has only begun. He has now started to classify and permanently arrange the collection, which will occupy all his spare time for several months. There are many valuable spec imens of minerals, crystals, etc., scat tered about in various cases, which, when put together and properly classified, will, render the exhibit much more valuable and instructive. It was Impossible to do this while the articles were being collect ed. The lining in many of the cases has become faded and will be replaced by block cloth, which will retain its color and wilset off the specimens to better advantage. There are enough specimens of the eggs of rare birds to fill a case and the same Is true of many other kinds of exhibits. Some 15 volumes of reports of the geological and ethnological surveys, containing "information in regard to mu seum collections, have .been received by Colonel Hawkins and placed about the museum convenient for reference. Hot Time for the Doqcatcher, Tho excitement always connected with the opening of the season for paying dog li censes, has somewhat cooled down, a considerable number of dogs having been taken in by the collector, and owners are now either paying licenses quietly or about to abandon their pets to the law. Things are still lively for Poundmaster Reed, who has about 50 more or less useless or valu able canines in the pound, and to whom people desiring tho release of such dogs have to apply. Some of these people vent their anger but to little purpose, for he has become hardened. A "lady" who called on him Saturday to get her dog released, took occasion to tell him that he was "no gentleman" or he would not be in such a business. Another said "you have a puppy in the pound belonging to me which is only 3 months old and. If you say it is any older, you are a liar." "You are doubtless correct," said Mr. Reed, "but you will have to go and pay the license for the puppy before you can get it out, all the same." Another com plainant, a woman, told Mr. Reed that she had a brother-in-law who was a po liceman and she would have him arrested for putting her dog In the pound. Diseased Fruit Grown in the City. Specimens of Bartlett pears and other fruits raised within the limits of this city have been left at the office of the Board of Horticulture, which are so dis figured by San Jose scale as to be worth less, although the fruit Is of large size. This shows the danger of having a tree or two on lots about town which are never sprayed or have anything done to them to rid them of insect pests. These trees become a lurking place and foot hold for such pests, which then spread to orchards which have been properly at tended to, and bo such pests are perpetu ated. Of course a person who has only one pear tree or apple tree on his lot cannot afford to keep a plant for spraying them to kill pests, but there are people who can be employed to do this and peo ple who have fruit-trees should take care of them or get.rid of them. An orchardlst near the city who takes pains to spray his trees may find all his trouble and ex pense wasted on account of a few neg lected trees at some distance, which he knows nothing about, but which produce enough pests to stock his orchard in fine shape and ruin his crop. Eclipse of Sun and Equinox. A total eclipse of the sun will occur today, but will be visible only In the southeastern part of Africa, the southern edge of Aus tralia and the South Indian Ocean, so it will hardly be worth going to see, unless in an airship. On Wednesday the sun will cross the line and rise and set at 6 o'clock, and Autumn will begin. The equi noxial gale may be expected any day now. When, after a week of bright, sunshiny weather, the sky was overcast with clouds Saturday, many said this was a sign that it was going to arrive on time. People who have been spending the Summer at the Coast or in the moun tains have nearly all returned home, and the remainder will be blowing In with the flight of wild fowl from the North before the equlnoxlal, for homo will be the most comfortable place of residence for the next six or eight months. Blessino to Melon-growers. The warm weather of late has been a godsend to the Oregon growers of watermelons, cantaloupes, etc. These grow well In-this state, but frequently do not arrive at per fection until the cool Fall weather has set in, and spoiled the thirst of the public for them. The cool weather early In Sep tember spoiled the sale of melons, but the warm days of last week created a demand for them and carloads of excellent quality poured into market and found ready sale at remunerative prices. Although long out of season, strawberries and blackberries contlnuo to come to-market in small quan tities, but they are "oft" in flavor, and so are not much In demand. Bananas are in season again and oranges ar.e coming in, so strawberries and blackberries can be dispensed with till next season.

I AT THE THEATERS r '""' i t ""f BAKER'S THEATER. "Janice Meredith." Lord Clowes Thomas Oberle Squire Meredith H. S.

Charles Harmon Sergeant George Raymond Heinrlch Alfred Monroe Janice Meredith Lillian Kemble Mrs. Meredith Phosa McAllister Tabltha Elsie Esmond American patriotism was aroused to a thrilling pitch yesterday at Baker's The ater on the occasion of two performances to crowded houses by the Neill-Morosco Company. Paul Leicester Ford's romance of the Revolutionary War, "Janice Mere dith," a play in "which Mary Mannerlng and Blanche Walsh have both starred, was given with brilliant success. The cli max is reached at the end of the third act, where Washington's half-starved sol diers rush on Colonel Rahl's headquarters at Trenton, N. J., bayonet the half drunken British garrison, and where Brit isher and Yankee mix with the smoke of musketry fire around them, while the or chestra plays "Yankee Doodle." It is the first scene in the play where Washing ton's soldiers appear, and the war picture caught the fancy of the audience, earning six curtain recalls. The play opens hi May, 1775, at the Meredith home, Trenton, N. J., and ends at Yorktown, October, 17S1, with the news of the surrender of Lord Cornwallis. It would make the war picture more realistic were a few battle flags Introduced. In the early days every colony had its own peculiar flag, and the American flag uwd at the battle of Bun ker Hill was called the New England flag. The Continental Congress adopted a resolution calling ior a National flag In June, 1777, and It is probable that this flag was first unfurled in battle on the banks of the Brandywlne, the same year. So "Janice Meredith" Is clearly within tfie time of the American flag. "Janice Meredith" is unlike most war plays, because there is no continuous roar of shot and shell, and there Is no stream of wounded soldiers to arouse one's sympathy. For the most part, it Is a pretty love story concerning one demure Quaker maiden, Janice Meredith (Lillian Kemble), who is loved by three 'men, Charles the Bondmnn (Charles Wyngate), Lord Clowes (Thomas Oberle) and Phile mon (Frank McVlckers). Miss Kemble makes a pretty and engaging Janice, and she manages with consummate skill to keep all her lovers at a distance until she ultimately capitulates to Charles, who be came bondman to her father to be near her. She is dressed in simple gowns of the Colonial style, us the part calls for nothing ese. Two other women are all that are In the play Mrs. Meredith (Pho sa McAllister) and Tabltha (Elsie Es mond). Mrs. Meredith is a stern matron of the old-fashioned school, and she rules Janice and Tabltha with an Iron band. It is this vein in the play that supplies most of the comedy. Mr. McVlckers, as Phile mon, also has a comedy part, which he plays with fine skill. Mr. Wyngate is dashing, patriotic and resourceful as Charles, and afterward Bereton, a supposed Hessian soldier. He has flne lines, and makes the most of them. Mr. Oberle cleverly portrays Lord Clowes, a brave but drunken and dis honest British' officer, until the part is made to go against the natural sympa thies of the audience. In plays of this sort the heavy villlnn Is usually ha Brit ish officer. He generally persecutes the helpless heroine and steals from govern ment funds. Joseph Dalley was amusingly entertaining as Rahl, and Miss Esmond wao sweet and girlish as Tabltha. But the chief figure in the play, after all. Is Janice she dominates It to the end. Miss Kemble deserves the greatest credit for her flne representation, and her work will stand favorable comparison with the stars who have preceded her. "Janice Mere dith," well played and well staged, will be the attraction at Baker's Theater, for the week. BAKER COMPANY'S BIG SUCCESS. Makes a Tremendous Hit in "The Liar" in Los Aselen. LOS ANGELES, Cal., Sept. 20. (Special.) The advent of the Baker Theater Com pany In Los Angeles at Morosco's Bur bank Theater tonight was one that wllL not soon be forgotten by those who were fortunate enough to gain admission to the Jammed playhouse. For three days the house had been sold out completely. In addition to 415 standing-room checks. Messenger boys were employed to keep places in the line that awaited the open ing of the Sunday night sale, some getting to the theater as early as 10 o'clock the night before and remaining in line all night so as to be on the ground at 9 In the morning when the office opened. Bare foot urchins squeezed into the line, and after getting positions close to the win dow sold out to men and .women for $1 a place. This continued until a number of policemen interfered and put a stop to the little trick. When the curtain arose on the first act every aisle in the house had been packed solid, and the ushers were In a dilemma. The audience entered into the spirit of the play right from the start, and the curtain calls were numerous. After the third act of "The Liars" the curtain went up nine times, and every member of the Baker Company had to appear before tho footlights. Edna Arch er Crawford scored a triumph as the win some Lady Jessica. Her Interpretation of the role was sincere, convincing and bril liant. Coupled with a pleasing personality and a splendid voice, Miss Crawford's gowns and superb flguro caused many a feminine heart to yearn. George Alison as Christopher Deerlng put forth his por trayal In a manly, straightforward man ner. His flne voice, handsome bearing and excellent stage presence immediately won him scores of friends. Howard Rus sell, while not cast to especial advantage, made the most of the role of George Nepean, and was accorded much gratify ing applause. Mr. William Bernard as Faulkner, t'he energetic and handsome lover, won no small portion of the laurels. Mlna Gleason as Mrs. Crespln made a tremendous hit. Miss .Rivers and Miss Hyatt rounded out the balance of the Im portant roles and gave to the production of "The Liars" the finishing touches that resulted in so grand a success. Los An geles is pleased to meet the Baker com pany. WHERE TO DINE. All the delicacies of the season at the Portland Restaurant; flne private apart ments for parties, 305 Wash., near 5th.

Firming Herbert "William Morgan Dr. Mlllbank Richard Clark Constance- "Wlnthrop....01a Humphrey Mrs. Dick Chetwynd..Jano Templeman Mrs. Ruth "Wlnthrop.... Harriet Jocelyn "Edith Edna Keeley Janet Beatrice Bromfleld That pleasant society play that used to be all the rage In Madison Square Theater, New York City, some ten years ago, and has been the vehicle where many actors and actresses have since risen to fame, Bronson Howard's "Young Mrs. Wln throp," was played to a large audience at Cordray's Theater last night by the Mordant-Humphrey company and was cordially received. "Young Mrs. Wln throp" belongs to the type of plays that camo in advance of what is now the mod ern problem play, and is very much bet ter in heart interest and genuine merit than trashy modern plays about a woman with a darkened past. At the same time, it is an offering of a character that many of Cordray's patrons are not used to it is so quiet in action, with no thrilling de nouement. It is human,- with a refining interest about It that is positively re freshing. Most of the heavy work falls on Edwin Mordant, who plays Douglas Wlnthrop, and Ola Humphrey, who is re sponsible for tho character work of Mrs. Constance Wlnthrop, a young wife who has more waste time at her disposal than is good for her. The comedy element Is supplied by Jane Templeman, the Mrs. Dick Chetwynd o'f the play, a woman who is an authority on husbands, because she has had two, and divorced and remarried one of them. The play does not call for elaborate scenery. It relates so much to the home life of the Wlnthrops that it can be sat isfactorily played in their drawing-room, with a conservatory peeping beyond. Mr. and Mrs. Wlnthrop have one baby girl. The husband becomes immersed In busi ness cares, frequently remaining away from home In the everilngs to consum mate various financial deals that take him to the luxury of club life. Mrs. Wlnthrop fancying herself neglected, finds solace in the gayetles of society. Their child dies, and the unhappy pair, drifting apart, ar range for a separation. A lawyer is called in, Buxton Scott (Frank B. Fanning), who prepares deeds of separation. The prop erty in common is easily divided, but when the lawyer skillfully leads up the husband and wife to the ownership of the cemetery plot where their baby is buried, the Wlnthrops fly to each other's arms and are reunited. Miss Humphrey spe cially excelled In the heavy emotional work. Miss Templeton gave a flne, breezy, clever representation of Mrs. Dick Chet wynd. It is a part open to vast possibili ties, especially that portion relating to the period when her divorced husband courts and marries her again. It was very amusing to listen to Miss Templeman when she got mixed up as to Bob's time and Dick's time. Mr. Fanning was. able and masterful in his portraiture of the part of the family lawyer, and he never did better work. Edna Keeley, a former Portland girl, acted enjoyably as Edith, the blind girl, and her love-making with Herbert (William Morgan) was out of the ordinary. "Young Mrs, Wlnthrop" is worth seeing, and will be. the attraction at Cordray's up to and including Wednes day evening. Thursday evening "A Gold Mine" will be played, continuing until Saturday evening. Comedy of Rural Life.
