Dying Robin Seeks Aid. A singular
death in the robin family occurred In the
yard of a house In Brooklyn last evening,
which shows that even the birds seek the
sympathy and protection of man at the
last hour. This little robin was noticed
perched on a raspberry bush in the back
yard in a rather dropping condition, and
it manifested little alarm when ap
proached. It could bo scon tnat tne
feathered creature was in deepest dis
tress. It permitted Its back to be gently
rubbed by the hand, and seemed to court
human companionship. After a few min
utes the robin flew, or rather fluttered,
from the bush to tho ground, and then
slowly, but confidently crept along the
ground toward where the man who owned
the premises was standing watching its
actions. Stooping down he held out his
hand toward tho robin, when to his sur
prise the little creature fluttered along un
til the quivering body nestled in his palm.
There the robin lay panting and gasping
lor breath, looking up with Its beadlike
eyes as If appealing for aid. All foar was
gone, and It seemed to have perfect con
fidence that there was no danger. The
man held the robin for five minutes heforo
tt finally died. "It was pathetic," re
marked the man, "and I confess that my
eyes moistened a little when the robin
.stretched Its head out In my hand and
filed. I could discover no injury of any
eort. There were no bruises on Its body,
Mfa 4ta nrJrifi'o -nrnrA nprffiirtlv SOUnd. I
fltondered If it was a case of suicide In the
rolrd family, with a love story in the bacK-
ound. or perhaps Cock Robin had got
hold of some poison accidentally. But tho
strangest feature of tho Incident was that
the robin should have come directly to me.
Mazjlma lasr Closes Tonight. Tho ap
plications and cash deposits of those who
wish to go with the Mazamas to Mount
Shasta will be received by Earl C. Bro
naugh, 635 Chamber of Commerce, up to
6 o'clock tonight, and Mr. Bronaugh will
he in his office all day to give informa
tion concerning this delightful outing. The
party will leave Tuesday night on tho
Southern Pacific, and the climb Is set for
Monday next. Returning the Mazamas
will arrive In Portland Friday morning,
August 5. Tho signatures of each mem
ber of the party who climbs to tho sum
mit of Mount Shasta will bo put in the
fine, new copper record box which Rodney
Glisan has had made to be deposited
there. At present there is absolutely no
record of any character there, the monu
ment of the geological survey having been
destroyed by storms and lightning and
swept far down the mountain aide. The
Mazama record-box will bo securely
chained to the solid rock so that it will be
permanent, and it will he a gratification
to Nature-lovers to be on record having
signed their names at 14,400 feet altitude.
The club is fortunate in having secured
one of the best camp cooks in this part
of tho country, and the commissary
promises to be of the very best.
Victim of Runawat Recoverino.
Frank Southard, who, with Dr. J. M.
iShort, met -with a runaway accident w'jlle
going down tho Lusted Hill at the Sandy
River, two weeks ago, is recovering. "I
tell you that I had a close call on that
hill," said Mr. Southard, "and how Dr.
Short and myself ever came out alive is
a mystery to both. We had started down
the Iiusted Hill, which is known us a
very bad hill. Dr. Short had the lines.
The horse made a dash forward, and Dr.
Short was thrown out of the buggy, tak-
ing the lines along with him. The doctor J
went sailing through the air, and struck .
a. soft place in the bushes and escaped
with a few bruises. I was left in the
buggy alone. The horse cut loose down
the steep grade. I expected every minute
to go out, and my time soon came. The
buggy struck a log, and over it went into
the brush with the horse and myself after
it. The buggy made a spring of a long
distance and was knocked Into match
wood. The horse was so badly hurt that
ho had to be killed. Dr. Short came down
to where J was and got mo back to
Gresham."
CoMrasnNO Wiiamette River. Daman.
The Government dipper dredger, which is
being completed in Supple's boatyard, will
be launched this week, when she will be
ready fcr a test. This dredger was built
specially for work in the Willamette
River. Her first work will be along the
East Side waterfront, between the Mor
rison and Madison bridges, where the
channel has become so shallow that it
would not be safe to take the fireboat
there in case of fire. The dredger, with
Jier powerful machinery, will soon clean
it the channel.

Presbyterian Chapeii Dedicated. The
Mlllard-Avenue Presbyterian Chapel, com
pleted near Arleta on the Mount Scott
railway, was dedicated yesterday after-
( noon. In the presence of a congregation
which more than comfortably nnea toe
seating space. Rev. A. J. Montgomery,
of the Third Presbyterian Church, had
charge of tho services. He was assisted
by Rev. W. S. Gilbert, of the Calvary
Presbyterian Church, and Rev. Henry
Marcotte. of the "Westminister Presby
terian Church.' In connection with the
dedicatory services was a historical sketch
by Rev. Levi Johnson, who has been In
timately connected with the founding and
completion of the chapel. Miss Mildred
Doty charmed all by her singing. Rev. D.
A. Thompson, pastor of the Sellwood
Presbyterian Church, is the acting pastor
of the .chapel, and holds services there
every Sunday. There Is also a flourish
ing Sunday schobl. The chapel is under
the general charge -of Calvary Church. A
year ago where tho chapel stands there
were no houses, but now within a radius
of half a mile there are nearly 300 new
cottages, and others are going up rap
Idly. Leaves No "Word For Relatives.
William Sullivan died yesterday aftoraoon
of heart disease, after having been a pa
tient at St. Vincent's hospital for a month
or more. Sullivan was 55 years of age at
the tlmp of his death, and was a man of
mystery at tho hospital. Nothing Is known
of his past, his occupation or his family.
He came to the hospital a little over a
month ago- and asked to be received as a
patient. His request was granted. He
was neat in his dress and evidently a
man of education and refinement. When
It was found that he was nearlng death
an effort was made to have the patient
tell of his relatives or of what he wished
to be done in tho event of his dying, biit
he refused to make any request, and died
without even telling where his relatives
are living. It is thought, however, that
ho had relatives in either San Francisco
or Anaconda, and the body will be held at
tho undertaking parlors of Dunning &
Campbell until it is learned what dispo
sition of the remains is desired.
BAND'S GOOD MUSIC.
Concert Displays the Improved Work
of Musical Organization.
1 BAND CONCERTS THIS WEEK. 4
Tonight Holladay Park.
Wednesday night North Park, near
Custom-House.
Friday night Plaza blocks.
Sunday afternoon City Park.
More than 2000 people sat in the grate
ful shade of tho trees yesterday after
noon at the City Park and listened to
another pleasant concert by Brown's
Park Band of 35 pieces. The programme
as previously published In The Oregon
ian was given, except that for the cor
net solo by B. F. Drlscoll, Hartman'a
"Faclllta," another number was chosen,
"For All Eternity," by Masoheronl.
Conductor Charles L. Brown has every
reason to feol satisfied with tho success
of yesterday afternoon's concert, for
every number was well played, gladly
welcomed by the large audience, and the
whole concert demonstrated that Brown's
Park Band is really the great band of
the Pacific Northwest. It plays with
such a dash and execution, and such
careful attention Is paid to light and
shade, that it need not foar comparison
with any competitor in this part of tho
country. It has been the custom for a
great many years to look for musical
excellence to artists from distant cities.
It Is pleasing to know that home talent
has produced a military band that Port
land can well bo proud of.
Brown's Band this year Is not last
year's organization. Several new Instru
ments have been added to tho orches
tration, particularly in the bass section,
and the band personnel has been strength
ened by new players. There Is a steadi
ness of attack, a beautiful finish and uni
formity In ensemble work that Is very
creditable. The purity of the reeds is
noticeable, and the cornet section is a
delight for velvet tone.
The "Tannhauser" spJnetlnn rpoftlved
iust the necessary dash, and the French
horns and trombones scored honors in
von Weber's "Oboron." B. F. Drlscoll,
cornet soloist, played so excellently and
displayed such a rich, swelling tone that
his fine work came on one as a surprise
The band can take him anywhere it goes
on tour, and ho will add to its artistic
reputation. The wedding march from
"Lohengrin" was softly and impressively
played, the cornet .tone being smooth and
steady. The double basses wero heard
to the best advantage In this number, and
it was a treat to hear such careful work.
The cakewalk, "Mr. Black Man," writ
ten by Arthur Pryor, formerly of Sousa's
Band, Is new in this section, and its
humor and piquancy will make it a fa
vorite. Now that Brown's Park Band
has fairly started on a prosperous sea
son, it deserves support and patronage.
It is safe to say that It will win the
crowd wherever it plays. Mr. Brown un
derstands the art of programme-making,
and is suro'to please not only the popu
lar taste, but also that of educated
musicians.
The following programme will be ren
dered at Holladay Park this evening:

Until yesterday it has been a long
time since Frances Hodgson Burnett's
-i l 1.. KTItU Tnril TTaiinf.
leroy"' was preVented in Portland. This
fact adds peculiar interest to the revi
val of the great success of 15 years ago
by the Baker Company this week.
"Fauntleroy" is a Juvenile classic
The youngsters who greedily devoured
the "romantic story of the poor little
American lad who became an English
lord, when It first appeared, aro grpwn
men and women now. Many of them
have children, of their ow,n old enough
to enthuse over it. More than that, the
trials and triumphs of "Dearest" and
"Ceddie," the transformation of tho
haughty old Earl apd the excellent .hu
mor of "Mr. Hobbs" and "Dick" appeal
strongly to boys and girls older grown.
The "Fauntleroy" fad has passed years
ago. Little boys don't wear the frills
and frlppqries of the effeminate hero,
but old and young still lovo a good
story, and for that reason "Faunt
leroy" lives.
It was a wise thing for the "Baker
Company to put on and the coming
week will no doubt bo the most suc
cessful of that excellent stock organi
zation's season.
Miss Dot Bernard is starring this
week. She gives a delightful perform
ance as the little lord. The Portland
public has watched Dot Bernard's work
as a child-actress since she was a very
little girl indeed. She has given great
promise and her friends have predicted
great things for her. Sho is becoming
quite a big girl now and her develop
ment from a professional standpoint
has kept pace with her physical
growth.
As Lord Fauntleroy she scores a
great personal success and demon
strates beyond question that sho has
talent of a high order and has profited
by the valuable training she has re
ceived. She will soon be too far grown
for child roles, and wo may soon see
her in long dresses. We may soon see
her In the galaxy of brilliant young
leading women who have arisen In the
past five years. If Dot Bernard will
study hard and keep her head level she
can do groat things. Her acting this
week seems to be the beginning.
In tho character of the Earl of Dorln
court, Guy Standing does something en
tirely different from his former por
trayals here. He makes the part Just
what we youngsters believe the wicked
old nobleman, who "became good, to
have been. Standing is English; he has
seen real Earls with the gout and tem
per. Perhaps that's the reason why hl3
Dorlncourt Is a real man.
Marie Boland as Dearest, Dallas
Tyler as the adventuress, Charles
Mackay as the solicitor and Scott
Cooper hs tho Jolly old groceryman are
all thoroughly good.
The others who get their names on
tho programme have little to do, and
Miss Reals is out of the cast altogether
this week. The audiences yesterday
were large and like "Little Lord Faunt
leroy" immensely. It is the bill for a
week.
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
The Star's Change of Bill.

ery, costumes, dances, comedy and a

ing the day or in the house at night, it
is always delightfully cool and pleasant
at beautiful Shields' Park.
New Bill at Arcade,
The Arcade management, following its
recognized policy of producing only the
best vaudeville acts, offers this week, an
unusually attractive bill. The engagement
of the Portland Italian Band, led by Louis
D'Urbano, one of the best band leaders in
the country, begins today. These skilled
musicians will play at each matinee, with
change of programme daily of popular and
classic airs. This is only one of tho inno
vations that has established this play
house In the public favor. The American
bioscope today will produce moving pic
tures of tho attack of the Japanese fleet
on Port Arthur, from a film of great his
torical interest In addition to these star

ring artists; Sam Hood, the brilliant
blackface comedian; Lynne and Leonard,

Lyrlcj the best vaudeville bill ever of
Xered in Portland will be inaugurated.
It is the result of careruj effort to so
cure the best acts to be obtained, re

resentative of the Lyric sends the acts

Is sufficient assurance that they are the
finest in the business. The programme
includes Hoyt and McDonald, high-class
singers and comedians; Teggle and
Daniels, who present the best comedy
singing and monologue act In vaude
ville; the clever Conkey, famous among
the world's great Jugglers; the Auers,

repute. President Roosevelt is shown

of July oration. The Bijou's the place.
NEASIY HAIF A MILLION.
Good Improvement Showing for the
Dullest Months of Year.
The dull months of the middle season
show little if any decrease in the build
ing movement on tho East Side. The
larger structures in course of erection
are tho Portland Woolen Mills and the
Cobb Flour Mills at St. Johns, reprcsent
incr an Investment of more than 5250,000.
In tho matter of echoolhouses the dis
trict ha3 the Brooklyn, the Clinton Kelly
and tho Alblna Central wen under way.
Tho Brooklyn building is practically be
lag rebuilt- In a few days the managers
of the Baby Homo will let a contract for
erection of a new building, which will
cost more than $6000. The old building
will be used as a hospital. Chappell
Browne has completed all the plans and
the work can go forward as soon as the
contract has been awarded. The most
Important East Side contract let In the
paet week is that to Power & Son for
erection of a six-room schoolhouse for tho
new school district No. 47, at Arleta.
Plans have been prepared for a 14-room
schoolhouse here, and the six rooms rep
resent only the part which goes up first
In this district between 100 and 150 cot
tages are under erection, and hence tho
directors concluded that they had better
make provisions for futuro expansion.
The contract has not yet been signed,
but it is expected that it will bo before
long. The question of raising the $10,000
required for this building must be settled
by tho voters before the contract can ba
signed. It Is out of the question to Issue
bonds, for the district is not largo enough,
tho taxable nronerty being little over
$70,000. Money, therefore, will have to bo
borrowed direct on the credit of the dis
trict In the district east of Lents, where
a two-room building is being put up, tho
money was all raised inside the district
Thle may be done In district 47, where the
people are determined to have a good
schoolhouse. At St Johns, the annex to
the schoolhouse Is being completed. It
will cost $3000. and will be ready for the
Fall term. The completed building will
contain six rooms, all of which will be
occupied. These Improvements represent
a total expenditure of something over
$100,000.
WILL GET A SCHOOL.
North End of Mount Tabor District
to Have Temporary Building.
H. B. Adams, of the Board of Directors
of the Mount Tabor schools, district No.
5, says that the. directors will erect a
temporary schoolhouse in the north end,
of tho district, perhaps on leased land.
This will be done so as to accommodate
the overflow of pupils in the two build
ings on West avenue and at Glencoe.
This Is the best the district can do for
the coming year. The district has not
the money on hand for the erection of a
largo building on permanent school
grounds purchased for the purpose this
year. No provisions have been made for
expending any considerable sum of money
for a new building. Ono or two temporary
rooms will be provided, as may be re
quired. "There Is a large growth in the north
end of the district," remarked Chairman
Adams, "but we cannot yet tell what is
best to do, and hence we expect to make
this temporary provision for tho people
there." , . j
If no further steps --are taken toward
annexation to Portland for some years to
como the district will no douDt tano ac
tion for the erection of a large school
house In the north end.
The directors do not seem Inclined to
Introduce the septic tank sewerage for
the two buildings of the district as sug
rD.fSH hv Dr. Woods Hutchlneon. Mr
Adams said: "How can this be done when
we are allowed but a cupful of water by
tho water c6mpany?"
i
IS OPPOSED TO DOGS.
Irascible Citizen. However, Would
Allow Childless Women Pets.
A rather testy and irascible citizen
called at the City Hall a day or two
ago in a toweririg rage, with the In
tention, as he expressed It, of turning
the place inside out Ho demanded to
be told why the poundmaster was not
gathering into his fold some of the
scores of worthless nuisances of un
licensed, homeless and worthless curs
which roam the streets of this city by
day and by night He said that when
he started down town he had not gone
a block till he met three such curs, and
before going another block to catch a
car he met two more, great hulking,
mangy-looking St Bernard dogs, and
he believed that if he had walked down
town he might have countod a hundred
such pestiferous nuisances. He asked
whether the poundmaster and the dog
catchers had gone on a vacation or
were merely loafing and drawing down
princely salaries for doing nothing. Ho
was allowed to proceed in this strain
until he had blown off a lot of the
pressure, and It was then explained to
him that this was the off season for
dogs. At this he blazed up again and
said he had imagined so, and that he
was opposed to dogs, and that no one
should be allowed to keep one insido
the city limits.
He was told that he should have some
consideration for childless women, who
needod pets of somo kind on which to
squander their surplus affections. He
replied that children and childless wo
men might be allowed to have dogs if
they paid a license and kept the ani
mals on their own premises. Finally it
was explained to him that the pound
master and all his rather small force
were busy dally chasing from St Johns
to Fulton in search of stray cows and
horses, which, since grass became scan
ty, are allowed to wander at will, to
the great annoyance of citizens whose
grounds are unfenced, and they were
making large sums in the way of fines
for the city.
The date for issuing dog licenses has
been fixed on September 1, in order to
allow of this matter being attended to,
but soon after that date the dog
wagons would he out, and it was
hoped by that time the Council will
have Increased the dog license suffi
ciently to have tho object of reducing
the number of the canines. This ex
planation satisfied the .irascible man,
and he went off happy, leaving the City
Hall standing Intact on Its foundation-

LIKES OREGON'S EXHIBIT
DAV RAFFETY
FROM ST. LOUIS
RETURNS
FAIR,
Forestry Display From This State
Is Much Superior to That of
Washington.
Dr. Dav Raffety, member of the State
Lewis and Clark Fair Commission, and
his family arrived home Saturday even
ing from a elx-week trip to St Louis, the
main portion of the time being spent
visiting the big Exposition.
"J. speedily found the Oregon building,"
remarked Dr. Raffety, "and saw on one
end 'Oregon as It was 99 years ago.' I
at once suggested that the same expla
nation be placed on the other sides of
the structure so everybody "who. went
there would know what the log house
was meant to represent. This was done,
and in my Judgment, greatly improved
conditions. It will prevent a misconcep
tion of tho meaning of the loghouse from
going abroad, as If the best that Oregon
could do was to put up a log cabin.
"Regarding the display, I think that on
a whole it is remarkably good and effec
tive, and Is doing" Oregon a great deal of
good The display compares well with
that of the other Western States which
have spent $100,000 and $150,000. In the hor
ticultural display we are a little lack
ing. Not enough apples were secured and
there Is a shortage.
"Our agricultural display compares well
with exhibits that have cost $30,000. It Is
surprising how much has been done with
a few thousand dollars along this line.
Our mineral and forestry displays are
exceedingly good, and attract very much
attention. As with our agricultural dis
play, our minerals compare favorably
with those of Colorado, which spent many
times more money. We have an exceed
ingly fine forsetry display. Our pieces of
timber attract much attention. The large
stick shipped was too heavy to be taken
Into the forestry building, for fear it
would smash the building, 6o It Is back of
the building. It is not noticed as much
as it would have "been had It a more con
spicuous place, but nevertheless It 1b seen
and admired by hundreds, who wonder at
Its dimensions. We have a better dis
play of timber than Washington.
"Between 1500 and 2000 people pass
through the Oregon building per day, and
the call for Oregon literature Is so great
that it cannot all be supplied. Cooked
prunes, without sugar, are dished out to
all who call for them. They are known
as Oregon prunes. Three young women
cook and serve the prunes, anckthey have
all they can do to meet the calls on them.
"On the whole the $50,000 appropriation
used In making an Oregon display at St
Louis Is being used to the best advantage
for the state, and our displays set forth
tho resources of the state to good ad
vantage. Compared "with the more ex
pensive displays from the West we make
a fine showing.
"No man can see all of the big Fair.
Ther Is not time for that In the art de
partment alone it would take six months
to see It all. The Philippine display cov
ers 40 acres, and represents the character
of the people the highest, the lowest and
tho middle classes. There aro the edu
cated classes with their accomplishments.
Then comes the Igorrotes the dog-eating
natives who are the lowest I was told
that the poundmaster is kept busy catch
ing dog3 for their feed. There is a space
the width of a finger betweon tho teeth
of these dogeaters. Tho Philippine display
of hardwoods 13 one of the finest on the
ground. And the whole show Is a world
In ltsolf."
