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.

Fishermen Find a Paradise. Trout
fishing Is generally considered a rather
strenuous sport. 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.

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.

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.

It is always hot, always
ready, clean and bright. No
matter where you want to
use it, whether in kitchen,
sewing room or laundry, it
is but a smatt matter to con
nect it to the electric light
circuit. It is quickly heated
and remains heated as long
as the current is on. Espe

where a hot iron is often
needed, will this be appre
ciated from the fact that it
requires no fire and no run
