Eastern Otstees Thrive on Coast.
The business of growing oysters on this
Coast from "seed" transplanted from the
Eastern coast bids fair to be a grander
success than even the experiments of for
mer years have foreshadowed, judging
from the reports of Mrs. Greenman, of
Oystervllle, 'Bhoalwater Bay, who has re
cently come to Portland to spend the "Win
ter. She owns a large area of oyster-beds
near Oystervllle, and some two years ago
got up a stock company in which several
Portland people invested some capital.
She imported, and planted seven carloads
of seed oysters, four of which were plant
ed in June, 1303, about 17 months ago, and
the other three in May last, the whole
covering about 20 acres of beds. The
oysters when planted were on an average
about the size of a 23-cent piece many
not so large, and they have thriven so
well that they can now be harvested In
any quantity, averaging four Inches in
length, and some five inches.. They are
said to be of excellent quality and much
superior to the large tough ones brought
here from the East. They are Blue Points.
The first planting comprised 1032 barrels,
containing about 6000 seed oysters each,
amounting in all to between six and seven
millions. In addition, Mrs. Greenman has
tho balace of some 150 or ICO acres in the
small native oysters.
Neighborhood Clubs Needed to Clean
Up. A property-owner who takes much
pride in keeping his grounds neat yester
day suggested that the public form dis
tricts and organize neighborhood clubs in
them to assume charge of the cleaning,
repairing, painting, keeping neat and
beautifying residences and grounds in
such districts. He said there was neces
sity for some such organization at this
time to get the city spruced up in prepa
ration for the influx of visitors to the Fair
next year. He went on to say that in
many districts no one appeared to have
any pride or even decency in regard to
these matters. Some, to save the expense
of building new fences, tore down old
ones, while others allowed old dilapidated
fences to remain to avoid the trouble of
tearing them down. Many landlords would
not spend a dollar In repairing or paint
ing houses, and most tenants would not
spend any money to put a leased house in
"better condition, but would allow the
grounds to be littered with rubbish.
Gun Club Seeks Aid From Faw. It Is
now the purpose of the Multnomah Rod
and Gun Club to bring here if possible
next year the American Handicap, the big
gest trap-shooting competition held In the
country. If it is obtained fully 1000 men
will come to take part, and lncldently see
the Hair. A committee has been appointed,
to call upon the Lewis and Clark board
with the object of obtaining $5000 of the
Fair's money for this purpose. The club
promises to raise $2500. The members of
tho committee are all well-known sports
men. They are H. D. Inman. president of
the club; Arthur IC Bentley, W. A. Storey,
J. D. Honeyman, A. J. "Winters and "Will
F. Lipman. The club is also seeking a
new location for trap-shooting and J. E.
Culllson and "W. A. HIllls have been ap
pointed to seek new grounds.
Dr. and Mrs. Brouoher at Home. Dr.
and Mrs. J. "W. Brougher, of the "White
Temple, will be "at home" to the mem
bers of the church and congregation to
day from 2 to 5 P. M. and from 8 to 10
P. AL The parsonage, 201 Eleventh street,

friends in the city. The ladies of the Aid
Society of the church vill assist In making

Oil "Well Is Down Over 700 Feet. The
oil well on John Ogden's place north of
St. Johns has reached a depth of 712 feet,
and the Indications of oil have steadily
increased, says Mr. Ogden. He now feels
more encouraged than at any time since
starting drilling this well. Considerable
oil Is mixed with the sand and water that
come out of the well. Some very hard
rock has now been struck. Mr. Ogden
expects to continue drilling until he
strikes oil or finds that there is no oil, but
Is confident he will not be disappointed.
For Assault on a Cripple. The trial

brutal assault on a cripple will occur this

morning at 11 o'clock to hear the report of
"W. H. Corbett, chairman of the special
committee appointed some time ago ,to

interested towards the proposed purchase.
Upon the findings of the committee will
depend to a great extent the future action
of the Chamber of Commerce in attempt
ing to induce the Government to make the
purchase.
Ask That Bridge Be Repaired. A re
quest that the executive board repair the
Union-avenue bridge across Sullivan's
Gulch has been prepared by the commit
tee of East Side men appointed at a mass
meeting several days ago. That portion of
the bridge over which the car track runs
has been bolstered up so that cars may
run with safety, and the committee re
quests that similar repairs be made
throughout. The communication from the
committee is said to represent 20,000 people
interested. A prominent brldgebullder has
assured tho committee that with a few
repairs the present bridge will last for
two or three years. Meanwhile it Is sug
gested that East Second street at the
mouth of Sullivan's Gulch, be graded and
used until the bridge Is ready for travel.

Death of "Well-known Railroad Man.
Friends In the city have received word
of the death of Joseph L. "White, who for
many years was the city ticket agent for
the Boston & Albany lines at Boston. Mr.
"White was well known among the rail
road men of Portland and the Northwest,
having accompanied "W. B. Jerome, gen
eral agent of the New York Central lines,
to the Coast on an excursion of railroad
men a little over a year ago. While on
that visit he made friends of all the rail
road men whom he met, each of whom
will be grieved to learn of his death. His
funeral was conducted from the New Old
South Church in Boston, and was attended
by hundreds of his friends.
Teredoes "Weakened Piling. A section
of one of tho piles of the Columbia River
jetty, broken in the storm a week ago, has
been sent to Major "W. C Langfltt, chief
of the United States Engineers, for ex
amination. It is Been to be honeycombed
by teredoes. The strength of the pile was
at least lessened by half by the teredoes.
The grubs were so thick in the section
sent that the stench from them was too
strong to bear. They made the corridors
on the third floor of the Federal building
so odoriferous yesterday that after they
had been in the building half an hour it
was found necessary to put the section of
pile on the roof.

CAN SHAVE ALL EVENING
BARBERS' UNION AGREES TO
SHOPS REMAINING OPEN.
Committee Will Confer With Employ
ers and New Regulation Will
Be Issued at Once.
Shaves up to 10 o'clock at night -will In
all probability be obtainable within a few
days.
This rule will apply not only to the
Hotel Portland shop, which began the pro
sent agitation and Is now open until that
hour, but also to every shop in tho city,
whose managers wish to servo customers
up to that time.
At a meeting of the Barbers Union In
the Allsky building last evening It was
informally agreed to allow the barber
shops to remain open. A conference of
the executive committee of the union, the
special committee of 13 appointed several
days ago for the purpose, and a number
of shop managers will be held at noon
today. The formal agreement will then
be decided upon, and the new regulations
Issued at once.
The union meeting last evening was at
tended by over 200 members. After a dis
cussion lasting several hours a vote was
taken on tho longer hours question. There
were but two dissenting votes, for the ma
jority fell in with the proposal submitted.
The members of the committees keep
the exact terms of the probable agree
ment to themselves, but the real meat
of the proposition is that a barber's day
shall hereafter be gauged by the number
of hours of work, and not by any fixed
length of time for the shop to be open
for business.
Six months ago a similar resolution
was Introduced Into the union but was
turned down, as It was thought best to
let matters stand as they were. The ac
tion of the Hotel Portland shop managers
In hiring pon-union men and keeping
their shop open until 10 o'clock, however,
was quickly followed by the requests of
other shops who did not wish to throw
out union men, but who did wish to catch
all late trade.
"It woVt affect the union at all. Men
will work so many hours on different
shifts, that's all," said T. M. Leabo, busi
ness agent of the union, after the meeting.
Other members of the union joined in the
statement that the new regulations would
not mean the breaklng-up of tho union
In any way. But the managers of the
shops who have rebelled against tho hours
fixed by the union as tho time In which to
do business feel that it Is a victory for
them, and that the control of the union
upon the shops Is slackening.
Hereafter the shops will probably open
at 7 o'clock in the morning. Some barbers
will go to work at that hour. As 10 hours
a day will probably be the limit settled
upon, the men will quit in the late after
noon. Others who have come on at noon
will then take their chairs, so that cus
tomers may bo served until a late hour
without forcing any barber to work be
yond a reasonable length of time.
"All 1 want Is the chance to keep the
shop open for myself and one or two men
after 7 o'clock." said the proprietor of a
seven-chair establishment yesterday. "I
belonged to the union beforo I took this
place, and I feel that I am a union men
still."
Both the union barbers and the em
ployers will almost certainly unito in try
ing to keep a scale of regular houra for
all the shops, however. Under the old
condition of things every shop opened
and closed when It pleased, and confusion
constantly resulted.
PROM MR. WESSrU'GRER.
Says Mr. Flegel Misquoted Him as to
Saloon Licenses.
PORTLAND. Or.. Oct IS. (To the Edi
tor: In today's issue. In the column
headed "Turns Down Mayor," the follow
ing language occurs: " "Mr. "Wesslnger
says he is willing to have the saloon li
censes raised to $1000, If wo limit the sa
loons In tho city to 250,' said Mr. Flegel."
If Mr. Flegel said this, he said what Is
not true. In the flrstplace, I do not arro
gate to myself the power of a dictator and
say that I am "willing" what should bo
done or not done In the government of
the city. I have seen enough of the evil
of some people trying to forco their views
down the throats or away from the
throats of others, to be quite willing to
attend to my own business and to let
others attend to theirs. In the second
place, as a citizen of Portland, I think it
bad municipal policy to close out 150
places of business, as the above-suggested
ordinance would do, thereby Injuring many
proporty-holders. In tho third place, as
the representative to some extent of cer
tain interests In the brewery business, I
regard such a prohibitive license as det
rimental to the welfare of that business.
In the fourth place, I was not present at
the meeting reported and I have never
anywhere given any authority for such a
statement. I regret being dragged before
the public In this matter, but since it has
come up I desire to state tho truth. And
finally, as I have never concealed my

AT THE THEATERS
What the Press Agents Say.
Vivid Description of Wild Love.
Of the many vivid flashes In Sydney
Grundy's pen, none Is more electrifying
than Mr. Brabazon's description of a wild
love In "Sowing the "Wind." It occurs In
the great sceno between Mr. Baume and
Miss Countiss at the Columbia Theater
this week. Sh is reviling her father for
his wrong against her mother, and in
the course of his defense of the man, Mr.
Brabazon uses this expressive language:
"It may be that, unknown to you, you
are the child of love of Irresistible and
overmastering love, that leap3 all bounds
that thinks of nothing, that .was not
meant to think of anything, except Itself
love that can .overwhelm one like the
sea love Just -as far beyond a man's con
trol as madness Is love that Is mad
ness love that staked Itself, and every
body else, present and future, on Itself
and lost! There Is such love. Miss Athel
stane, and It comes as stralghtly. from
the hand of heaven as death does. len
cannot always marry, and all the purity
that God has made cannot be bounded
by a ring of gold!"
It is worth a trip to the Columbia
Theater to witness this one scene.
As the week progresses, "Sowing tho
"Wind" grows In popular estimation. It
Is a play that was bound to become
popular. Its theme being of striking orig
inality and tho language so beautiful that
present day writers rarely equal it The
company under Mr. Bernard's direction
gives the drama an unsurpassed inter
pretation and evidently none of Port
land's playgoers Intend to miss it The
sale for the remainder of the week has
been exceptionally heavy.
"For Her Sake" Tonight.
The big Russian melodramatic sensa
tion which has been the sensation of the
week at Cojdrays is filling tho theater
nightly with enthusiastic spectators who
pronounce It the most Interesting and
Instructive play of the day. The Intense
interest felt in the present war between
Russia and Japan In a largo measure is
responsible for the success of 'the piece,
as It deals with military and court life
In the realms of tho Czar with a power
ful sidelight on tho Siberian exile system!
The thrilling last act which takes place
In the depths of the famous mines of
Kara, never falls to arouse the wildest ex
citement The cruelty practiced upon the
unfortunato prisoners Is realistically pre
sented even to tho use of the red hot
Irons and the whipping post to compel
confessions. The scenery is magnificent
and tho company is composed of clever
actors. The attendance tonight promises
to bring out the S. R. O. sign.
