Four Small Fires in an Hour. From
the persistency and frequency -with which
fire bells rang and whistles blow early yes
terday afternoon, the whole town might
have been afire, but it developed into an
other case of "much ado about nothing."
By some freak of chance four alarms
were sent In about the same time and in
different parts of the city. Fire apparatus
dashed in every direction and there was
great excitement for a time, but there
was not enough fire to have fried an egg
over at any of the four sources of alarm.
The calls were to .Ninth and Davis streets,
where a chimney was burning out; Rus
sell street, in Lower Albina, where there
was a small blaze at the Pacific Hotel;
First and Clay streets, where several
shingles on a roof had caught fire from a
chimney, and "Williams avenue and Ma
son street, where there was another chim
ney burning out. The principal loss was
in fire-horse energy. . ,
"Will Return to His Foemer Church.
Rev. C. C. Poling, Ph. D., president of
the Dallas College, of the United Kvan
gelical Church, was in the city yesterday,
closing up some business preparatory to
returning to Johnstown, Pa,, where he ex
pects to return to the church he left 20
years ago to come to Oregon. Mr. Poling
was first stationed on the .East Side before
be went to Dallas. His health has greatly
weakened under his duties, and he was
given leave of absence from the Dallas
achool and will spend two years in the
East. By letter he learns that his old
church in Johnstown desires him to re
turn there, which he will probably do.
However, Dr. Poling says he certainly will
sot remain in the East, but will return to
Oregon.
How to Makd the Rapids. The state
ment that the Charles R. Spencer would
continue Its run through to The Dalles
over the Cascades, even when the locks
are closed on account of high water, re
minded several old rivermen yesterday
how another boat, the Gold Dust, the
property of the same owner, made the
rapids a number of years ago. It was
taken to the foot of the present locks and
cut in two, and thereafter loaded upon
two cars on the old Portage Road, carried
beyond the Cascades and put together
again. The old steamboatmen wonder
whether Captain F. "W. Spencer Is going
to try the same game every day on his
'gun through to The Dalles.
T?Q. Repair Eighth-Street Bridge.
Councilman Dan J. Sherritt, of the Sev
enth "Ward, is trying to raise money to
assist in redecklng the East Eighth-street
bridge across Stephen Slough, which has
been closed for nearly a year. If a rea
sonable sum is subscribed the Executive
Board will order the work done. As the
property-owners escaped paying for the
building of this bridge on some technical
ity in the first place, throwing the cost
on the city, the authorities now feel that
the city should not be called upon to pay
for repairs. Councilman Sherritt is doing
all he can to get the bridge repaired and
opened to the public
Roman Catholic Feast Dat. The Feast
of the Ascension was celebrated in the
Roman Catholic churches throughout the
city yesterday by masses, sermons and
instruction. The services were such as

tion and rosary, with the May hymn, In

ing during May, the month devoted to the
adoration of the Blessed Virgin. At the

was celebrated in the morning, but there
were no evening services. This day is not
observed in Protestant churches.

Seattle home. The fellow Is a laborer and
after drawing his wages for a month
came here to spend it, knowing that he
might be 'Interrupted in his pleasure in
Seattle through the interference of his
destitute wife and children. Ho has been
hanfelng about the North End, drinking
for several day? past, and upon running
out of money attempted to get more by
stealing some tools from a store on Front
street. He was caught in the act and
taken before Judge Hogue yesterday
morning, where he begged for leniency,
saying he would return home and go to

tion last night it was decided to ask the
Oregon "Water Power & Railway Com
pany to grant the residents of that place
a straight five-cent fare to Portland. "Will
iam Schlndler, vice-president, presided In
the absence of President Richard Scott.
Mr. Schlndler suggested that the com
pany be asked to restore the 15-cent round

fit the place. F. H. Lechler urged that
Milwaukle make an effort to secure a five
cent fare and that the railway, company
be urged to continue its golf-links car to
Milwaukle. giving I'. a 20-mlnute schedule.
On motion the following committee was
appointed to take the matter up with the
railway company; F. H. Lechler, Louis

gon Traction Company, the holders of the
franchise of the Hlllsboro suburban road,
make some move toward actually begin
ning work upon the line by June 1, in all
probability the Council will rescind the
franchise and declare It void. At the meet
Ing of the street committee of the Execu
tive Board yesterday afternoon the sub
ject was discussed, being brought up by
two street contracts for the Improvement
of Northrup street, both of which are held
up pending the laying of the electrlc-llne
track on that street. Members of the Ex
ecutive Board have become tired of being
told that negotiations for the right of way,
etc., were progressing nicely. They seri
ously doubt If the road will ever be built
under the present franchise.

do but to touch up the boat with a finish
ing coat of paint. The watchdog of the
water front is now lying In her berth at
the foot of East "Washington street, where
the last finishes will be put on without
delay.

susceptible a five-act treatment of "East
Lynne" will have the desired effect. "When
the last curtain splashes down upon the
tear-drenched stage the audience feels im
pelled to flee to the primeval forest where
in the rain-crow trills his lay or the wav
ing pampas where browse the sweet
breathed klne. To find out just how much
better real everyday life, with all the
stone-bruises and bumps, is than kitchen
maid fiction one has only to sit through a
performance of the venerable emotional
joke which Mrs. "Wood perpetrated shortly
after the Norman conquest. No doubt
Mrs. "Wood was an estimable woman. She
probably made excellent currant jelly and
good light bread. Her one great weak
ness seems to have been that she got her
self all choked up with penny dreadful
emotion and to work it out of her system
wrote "East Lynne." She Is dead now
and her memory should be scolded but not
turned adrift. Sometime after the book
appeared and while shirt-factory literary
circles were yet agog agog is a good
word some miscreant, possibly Charles K,
Harris, dramatized it Since then it has
been a standard proprietary specific for
strangulated tear-ducts. Madam "Vine has
died almost as often as Little Eva, but
she won't stay dead. You can't keep
Madam "Vine down and at the last day
It is probable that some attenuated lead
ing loldy with a lumpy voice and an In
diana accent will be caught, dead as
Madam Vine. '
"We have "East Lynne" with us again
this week and as a special innovation we
have Manager "Bill" Russell impersonat

Lovison. He makes the part Just as vil
lainous as the audience will stand for and
has dyedihis hair and mustache for the
occasion. Mr. Russell himself Is worth

ance is as easy a bargain as a package of

OREGON CITY, Or., May 12. (Special.)
R. Koehler, of the Southern Pacific
Company, was in the city yesterday In
consultation with the city authorities as to
the extent of the company's rights in this
city. By the recent decision in the Su
preme Court, the municipality was given
absolute title to a stretch of land border
ing on the bluff that has heretofore been
claimed by the railroad corporation.
On this disputed tract the Southern Pa
cific people have built and are now operat
ing one side-track in excess of any con
cessions that were ever granted by the
city. The company now desires to erect a
large water tank in this city and make
other improvements, and the purpose of
Mr. Koehler's visit at this time Is to ar
rive at an understanding with the city
authorities.
There Is a disposition on the part of the
members of the City Council to realize
for the city something in the way of rev
enue from the railroad people if any more
concessions are to be made. In this con
nection the city authorities will ask the
railroad people to provide an underground
crossing for the South End road.
