Makxkg a Street op Roses. The resi
dents on Thurman street are taking the
lead in the matter of beautifying the city
and earning Portland the right to be
entitled the City of Roses. Several hundred
rose bushes of different varieties have al
ready been planted in the space between
the sidewalk and property line, and onlyH
one person has yet objected to this. This
scheme for beautifying the city has been
tried on a, small scale on several streets
but this rnoement on Thurman street Is
the first concerted effort on a large scale
In that line. The practicability of the
scheme has been doubted by some who
Imagine that dogs, horses, occasional
stray cattle and more especially gangs
of stray hoodlums.'will be likely to wreck
or destroy the rose bushes or at least
strip them of their blossoms, and prevent
them from becoming the ornaments in
tended. According to Mr. Hoyt's state
ments there is no danger of this and the
boys have engaged to foster and protect
the bushes. If they fulfill this promise,
the good effect of the work on them In
teaching them to respect the rights and
property of others or of the public, and to
take a pride in beautifying the city will
amply repay all the cost of planting the
bushes. It must be said, however. In Jus
tice to ibe lone man who objected to the
bushes being planted in front of his prop
erty, that this work has been proceeded
with without the formal permission of all
the property-owners. There are naturally
but few who object to their property on
the street in front being Improved or or
namented at the expense of others, and
doubtless most of the residents along the
Btreet will care for and protect the bushes
planted, as far as possible. The man who
objected to the rose bushes has a nice
privet hedge in front of his lot which
must be trimmed from time to time in
order to bring it to perfection, and as he
had not been consulted in the matter and
feared that the bushes would interfere
with the trimming of his hedge, he told
the man who planted them to remove
them.
Different Kinds of Pavement. Sev
eral street contractors, who had read
what School Director -"Wittenberg said
about the macadam streets of Portland
and the vitrified brick pavements of Seat
tle, admitted that his statements were
substantially correct, but said there was
nothing new in them. It is well known here
that brick of a superior quality is made
at Seattle, owing to a bed of superior
clay found there, the equal of which has
not yet been found elsewhere in the North
west. Many samples have been tested here,
but even if property-owners were willing
to bear the expense of this brick for
paving streets here, they could not get
them, as the manufacturers of these brick
have orders far ahead of what they can
fill in any reasonable time. Outside of
that particular material the question of
good streets i3 Just a matter of cost be
tween having mud or a fine .pavement.
There are asphalt, wood block, stone
block, and other kinds of pavements,
which answer every purpose for a longer
or shorter time, but every time a good
pavement is laid there are some who do
not want to pay for it and trouble arises.
Portland can have the best street pave
ments obtainable, if people are willing to
pay for them, but it is not yet definitely
known what kind of pavement is the best.
Most Meincholy Dats Abe Here.
"The melancholy days have come, the
shortest of the year; they are too warm
lor whisky straight, too cold for lager
beer;" and they are too short and dark
and gloomy to be of much use for any
thing but buying Christmas presents, if
one has any money to spend. "It is just
regular Christmas weather," said a wom
an on her way to church yesterday
morning, and it is usually much such
weather when the shortest days arrive
and Christmas is to be celebrated. Soon
the days will begin to lengthen, but for
tunately it Is not here, as it is in the East;
"when the days grow longer, the cold
grows stronger." Only a few weeks more
and the roses will be blooming again,
the robins will be here again, all nature
will be budding and bursting into bloom, j
everything will be lively, and Oregon tho
most delightful region in the world.

New Charter on Street Improve
ments. Complaints have lately been made
about the provision in the new charter
which allows the city to Improve streets
without being asked to do so by the property-owners
interested. This, complainants
say, is al! wrong and a street should rot
be improved until the property-ownjrs,
who v i'l fcuvo to pay for the Improvement,
have petitioned for It. "This ussd to be
"Ihp method under the old charter," said an
o'd onLtctor to one of these complain
ants, "and to this Is largely due the .bad
condll'en of so many street In Poitl'Uid
at present. Many people can see the ne
cessity for a street being improved, and
would not object to the cost, bat mos
are in-line. to pui on me impiuvcuiwu.
as lor.g.,as possible. It was always dim- ;
cult to get e majority to lgn a petition
for nn Improvement. There are oth-sr and
wor3e features connected with this old- '
fashioned style of getting streets im- 1
nrorcd The lurisdlctlon of the cltv Ce- '
pended upon the legally of the petition
In such cases, andt this it was practically
impressible tq prove, as It was not possl-
bie to get an affidavit with each sign-1
ture to the petition, and so the city was .
swindled or got the worst of it in many i
cases where streets were impravd' on j
petitions. Seme property-owners would get j
in and remonstrate and manage to escape j
paying hla assessment ana men nany
others would cet out of paying their as
sessments on the same or some similar
plea. In the case of the Improvement of
East Eighth street from Flanders to
Riverside Homestead, the petition was
signed by Mrs. Hawthorne for herself
and her daughter. A suit was brought to
contest payment of the assessment. The
court held that the authority Mrs. Haw
thorne had to sign her daughter's name
was not sufficient and the city although j
perfectly honest in the matter was 'stuck'!
up' for about 510.000. Another case which j 1
shows the weakness of the old style or im
proving streets on petition Is that In re
gard to the Joseph Gaston property on
Main street. A good Improvement was
made and completed two years ago. Gas
ten protested against paying his assess
ment, and the courts, as usual, decided
against the city on every point. It was
shown that the improvement was a good
one, and well done, but because some
notice which the Engineer should have
posted within three days, but delayed till
five days had elapsed, the city gets stuck
on this trivial technicality. Under the pro
vision of the new charter the city orders
an Improvement made, but this is defeat
ed if a certain number of property-owners
remonstrate. If they do not remonstrate,
this is deemed proof sufficient that they
favor the improvement."
Evening Grosbeaks Arrive. A flock
of evening grosbeaks, the pretty little
birds which usually visit this city during
the Winter, arrived here a few days ago.
They have been flitting about and feeding
on the seeds of the locust trees, the pods
of which still cling to the branches, and
pecklngxat the stems from which the seeds
of the maples have fallen, evidently find
ing something eatable there.. These birds
did not visit the city last Winter, It was
supposed on account of the season not
being severe in the mountains and forests,
where they have their haunts. There are
several species of grosbeaks scattered over
North America, from the Far North away
down into Mexico. They derive the name
from the large stout bill which Is charac
teristic of the whole family. The evening
grosbeak is the only species seen here.
Flocks of them are often seen in the pine
woods on the Cascades and Blue Moun
tains as late as May. being on their way
from the South to their Summer haunts
in the far countries of the North. They
are seen at different times In Wisconsin
and as far East as the New England
States. They are supposed to visit this
city when the snow gets unusually deep
in the mountains, but their movements
appear to be capricious. The blue, pine"
and rcje-breasted species of the grosbeak
are of more snowy .plumage than the
evening grosbeak which is of modest col
ors, but still is a beautiful bird, being of
a dusky olive color shading to yellowish
on the rump; the forehead, a line over
the eyes and under tail coverts, yellow;
crown, wings and tall black; bill, green
ish yellow, conspicuously large. In this
species the female differs but slightly
from thn male, but Is easily distinguish
able. It some of the other species tho
males are gaudy with red, blue hnd white
markings. " During their visits here they
appear very tame and unsuspicious, and
their only note while feeding consists of
a single rather screaming call. In. the
mating season the male has a warbling
whistle not so pretty as the robins' song.
No Shortage of Turkeys. Some peo
ple, who saw the vast numbers of tur
keys provided for the Thanksgiving mar
ket, many more than ever were collected
here before at one time, and who knew
of the large shipments of turkeys made
from Southern Oregon at that time to Ban
Francisco and Puget Sound have been
fearing that the supply for the Christmas
market might be not equal to the de
mand. Market men say, however, that
there is no danger of this and that there
will be a grander display of fine fat tur
keys for the Christmas market than there
was at Thanksgiving. The birds have been
fed especially for this occasion ever since
Thanksgiving, and although outsiders have
been making Inroads on the flocks, many
farmers have been holding back birds for
Portland'sxChristmas dinners, and the sup
ply will be ample. ' The only reason why
so many Oregon turkeys have been sold
to San Francisco and Puget Sound Is
that buyers from those places pay higher
prices than Portland people want to pay,
and the growers, of course, sell to the
highest bidders. Market men promise a
fine display of. all sorts of fruits, vegeta
bles and Eastern delicacies, fish and shell
fish, for the Christmas market and tho
abattoirs here will not be behind In the
way of meats of all kinds, especially
sirloins of extra fat beef for those who
prefer this to turkeys.
Syndicate Rebuilds Roadway. A few
blocks at the lower end of North Front
street, where It appears on the map to
turn to the west and merges with the St.
Helens road. Is to bo planked for the con
venience of lumber and fuel companies.
When the Western Lumber Company was
burned out a portion of the elevated road
way on North Front street was destroyed,
and since that time teams of the mill and
fuel companies north of that gap have
h.n fniir,Trfnr rh rout of n timmw..
railroad switch or cutoff to get over to
the traveled thoroughfare leading south
Into the city. They are now to be shut
out from this route as the railroad com
pany is to lay tracks over it, so that
teams cannot travel It. The city has,
therefore,. arranged to furnish a new out
let for these teams. The lumber, some
60.000 feet. Is to be furnished by the mill
at a low price and the Banfield-Veasey
Fuel Company will furnish labor to lay It
and City Engineer Elliott will furnish a
practical bridge man to superintend the
work. When this roadway fs completed
the teams of the lumber and fuel compa
nies will, when coming up town start in
a directly opposite direction, and then
turn to the west till they reach Twenty
first, Twenty-second or Twenty-third
streets when they will turn south and
so eventually reach the business part of
the city.
Gravel for Fair Grounds. The work
of graveling the roadways graded through
out the Lewis and Clark Fair grounds has
necessarily been suspended during the
late stormy weather, which made the
ground so soft that a traction engine
with a train of gravel-loaded wagons
could Tiot be successfully operated. Ad
vantage has been taken of this vacation
to open a gravel pit at the foot of the
hills, and to put up a series of revolving
screens -for screening the gravel, and
bunkers for holding the coarse and fine
stuff. An electric motor has also been
installed to operate the screens and tracks
laid to the bunkers, so that when the
weather permits tie work of graveling
the roadways In the Fair grounds to be
resumed a large stock Of gravel will be
in the bunkers and trains of wagons can
be loaded with dispatch. The work will
proceed more rapidly than has been pos
sible heretofore, and with better results,
owing to the gravel having been properly
screened.

W0EKS OP ART.
Six Meerschaum Pipes That, Cost a
Small Fortune Now in Portland.
It is not often that the people of Port
land have an opportunity to examine and
admire high art In Meerschaum pipes,
and this is the first time In the history
of this city that such valuable and truly
artistic productions of this kind have
ever been shown here or, perhaps, else
where. Of the six pipes four represent
Queen Elizabeth, Marie Antoinette, Mary
Stuart and Oom Paul. They are perfect
likenesses of these celebrities, and his
torically correct In figure and dress. The
delicacy of the carving- Is remarkable,
an exact reproduction being made of the
famous Queen Elizabeth collar, the head
dresses and other finery worn by the three
noted women mentioned above. Every
detail Is carried out to perfection and
to the average eye it is almost incompre
hensible that the hand can be trained to
accomplish such wonders.
These pipes are the production of a
celebrated Parisian artist who brought
them o this country for exhibition at the
St. Louis World's Fair. Mr. Sig. SIchel,
of this city, who was visiting New Tork,
was fortunate enough to receive an in
troduction to the artist and after a great
deal of persuasion, induced him to part
with his treasures for a sum of money
that runs into four figures. The pipes are
now at the store of Sig. SIchel & Co.,
92 Third street, and It will be a pleas
ure to exhibit them to any person wish
ing to call for that purpose.
KICH LEDGE IN THE SANTIAM
Assay Shows Predominance of Cop
per, With Silver and Gold.
ALBANY, Or. Dec 20. (Special.)
What promises to be a very rich mining
ledge has been reported from the South
Santlam country, near Foster. Tho dis
coveries are about two miles, from tho
Wbltcomb postofflce, in the mountains,
and are 40 miles from the Southern Pa
cific by wagon road.
The prospect has been known to a few
for-fiome time, but the matter has been
kept quiet until a thorough teat of the
minerals Could be made. During the last
two years, George B. Whitcomb, one of
the owners, has tunneled 40 feet under the
side of the mountain, and says that the
prospect is getting better all the time.
An assay shows 521 copper, $2.40 silver
and $1.85 gold. This is the lowest assay
that has been made, while a number of
betten showings have been obtained
Albany men are Interested and will soon
form a company.

MAY0E WILLIAMS' D0Q STORY
Portland's Chief Executive Silences
CroWri of Yarn-Tellers.
A crowd of men were discussing the Sa
lem dog show one afternoon last, week In
the corridors of the City Hall. Two of
them were fanciers of bird dogs, and
talked pointers and setters with energy.
Another's taste ran to fox terriers and
6mall dogs, and there were several good
stories exchanged regarding canine sa
gacity, during which Mayor "Williams
joined the crowd.
'"Well, I don't know so much about
pointers and spaniels, and all those dogs,"
said the Mayor, when It came his turn,
"but I'll tell you one thing I do know,
and that Is that a bulldog can be very
sagacious at times. Major Davis, over
here- at Vancouver, has a Boston terrier.
It Is not a very pretty dog, but very well
trained. TheMajor gave a dinner last
week, and when "we went to sit down at
the table some one discovered that there
were 13 In the party, and, of course, that
foolish superstition about 13 being an un
lucky number caused several to make a
commotion about it. So the Major said:
Til call in Bets.' Bets proved to be his
pet bulldog, and when he was installed
In a chair and a napkin tied under his
chin, he was as dignified as any of the
guests, ahd Quietly sat there all during
the meal. The ladles kept his plate sup
plied with crackers, which he munched
very daintily, and I can vouch for it that
he did not once eat with his knife.
"Now, that's a true dog story." said
the Mayor, as he moved away. "Can anyN
of you beat it?"

Memorial to Byron C Holmes.
A memorial to the late Byron Z. Holmes
has been fram'ed by the Exempt Fire
men's Association, of which Mr. Holmes
was a member. The resolution follows:
"We. the members of the Exempt Fire
men's Association, feel that no words
would be adequate to fittingly express the
grief and sorrow with which we heard"
of the death of. our brother and late vice
president, Byron Z. Holmes. Identified 'as
he- was wllh the Volunteer Fire Depart
ment from the time of Its organization,
and always an active member, he endeared
himself to us all by the loyalty of his
friendship, the charm of his companion
ship and the kindly, Movable disposition
which made his own life a success and
brought so much happiness Into the lives
of those who knew him. Ever courteous
to all. he lived without malice toward any
and died without an enemy In the world.
As expressive of the sentiment of this or
ganization, be it
Resolver, That In the d.eath of Byron
Z. Holmes this society has lost an hon
ored member, and the community at large
a good citizen.
Resolved, Thatwe tender to his family
our sympathy In this hour of bereave
ment, and that a copy of these resolutions
be forwarded to the widow of deceased.
Resolved. That these resolutions be
spread upon the records of this society.

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 small 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
cially in the sewing room,
where, a hot iron Is often
needed, will this be appre
ciated from the fact that it
requires no fire and no run
ning to and from the kitchen.
