Use for Slot-Machine Slugs. "With the disappearance of the nlckel-ln-tho-slot ma chanes from general use, the brass slugs used In "playing" them became to all ap pearance useless. Thousands or tnem were in use and many players had a pocketful of them when the machines dis appeared. As each slug had cost a nickel or some other sum, these people were out and injured. They, did not, however, dump the slugs in 'the river, but have found a way of making each fill the place of a nlckeL They are passed on the pub lic telephones and ring up central as ex peditiously as would a nickel or even a S2.50 piece. Borne enjoy thinking that they are, thus swindling the- Telephone Company, while patronizing it, but In this they are mistaken. The proprietor of a ealoon, cigar store or other place who has a public telephone put in agrees to pay say $5 a month for it. If at the end of the month there are found nickels to the amount of $2 in the telephone box he has to pay only $3 and, if there is over 55 in it, the surplus is divided with him. Bo that when a man drops a brass slug into the box he is robbing the owner of the place and not the Telephone Company. .

Spanish tale," and as Miss Roberts and Mr. Bosworth and their associates play it, "Marta of the Lowlands," Is a poem. - "While it -deals unsparingly with vice It Is not so strongly Impregnated with the Droblem" as have been all the otners with which Miss Roberts has been asso ciated. The most sensitive may go to seo it without fear of being offended. It is a play which should do good. There are but three acts, tne nrst ana last of which transpire with the same stage setting. The entire action takes plnce In and about a little mill at tno foot of the Pyrenees. There are no flno clothes, no complicities of plot- It Is all simple. Its naturalness makes it a won derfully artistic thing. If such a par adoxical thing can be. A story of tho old, old Inhumanity of mankind toward tne woman who falls. It tells of how a shep herd comes from the mountains. Out of tho high, sweet air of lofty places. A man without guile, clean-neartea ana brave, with the courage of the strong in body and spirit. Of how he loves, passing all understanding, tho poor crushed re- nontHnt irlrl rrt th lowlands, where she has lived all her unhappy days, where all was harc Jna bitter and sordid. Of how his love exalts the Magdalen and leads her stumbling, unsure feet out of the Lowlands Into peace. It is almost a pretty story. It certainly Is a good one. There are smiles enough to light up its somberest places, and the story which Toraas tells of St. Michael and of the deaf and dumb woman is de lightfully witty. Snatches of Spanish song and tinkling mandolins enliven some of the most acrid passages, Miss Roberts' finest moments are in the telling of her pitiful life-story to old To mas. Her performance from the first 5' SS.S0"" The play Is in large measure a leading man's ODDortunlty to divide the honors with the star, and Hobart Bosworth did this with his characterisation of the glorious shepherd. His great scene at the close of the second act was the strongest bit of the play. Other members of the cast excepting Ollle Cooper have not much to do. Little Miss Cooper, read her lines beautifully and did ample justice to an exacting role. "Marta" will finish the week at the Marquam, including Saturday matinee. A. A. G. GRESHAM BUILDING UP. Whole of Eastern Part of County Is Growing Fast. GRESHAM. Or.. Oct 20. SpeclaL since the beginning of the year 27 real dences have been built or are In course of construction, to be completed within the next two months. They are all within the corporate limits of the city and are sub stantial homes for permanent people of the place. The list of builders is as fol lows: w. H. Hamilton, 51S0O: F. Metzger, 52000; E. C. Lindsay, two houses. $1600; Miss L. T. Lusted, 5SC0; N. L. Smith, $900; S. A. Coon. $800: F. Stoker. MOO; J. H. Stone, $60; F. McElllott, $300; Thomas Bros., $2500; J. H. Metzger, $2500; R. R.

Tho total amounts to over $35,000, to which may be added three business buildings costing $7000 more. In addition to these new structures there have been permanent improvements made by a dozen others aggregating at least $5000 more, making a total of $47,000. B sides this amount spent within the city there have been several thousand more paid out for dwellings and barns by Multnomah shows signs of prosperity un equaled In any former year, and It Is a safe estimate to say that at least $100,000 has been expended ln this section during the past year. Iron Mine Discovered. A mountain of high-grade Iron ore has been discovered between Rooster Rock and Latourell Falls. It Is on the old Goff place, lately purchased by William Rob erts, of Portland. The body of ore is practically unlimited and lies close to the track of the O. R. & N. Tests have been made of samples, which show a grade of Iron far superior to any heretofore discov ered in Oregon, equaling In many respects that imported from Norway. Some de- velopment work will be commenced in a ier montns. and efforts wi be made to open up an uiuuairy uia.i uiuy ims uuc ui the greatest importance. Potato Crop Short. Digging of the potato crop Is now fully under way, and much disappointment Is manifest over the shortage which will ex ist, compared with former years, after the crop is safely housed. Tho average yield will be about 125 bushels to the acre, al though a few fields will exceed that amount Many fields are scarcely worth digging, but the prevailing high prices and the prospect of still higher prices be fore Spring will induce every tanner to j harvest every bushel to be found. Fire Department Disbands. Greshara's embryo Fire Department died a-bornln'. The City Council, after much figuring and debating upon the cost of a water system from the Bull Run pipe line, camo to the conclusion tnat tne oner of the Portland "Water Commission was too high for consideration and has done nothing to provide a means of extinguisn- lng fires. The action of the Council dis gusted many of those who voiunteerea as firemen. The president resigned and the organization was never perfected, al though a full set of by-laws had been drafted and was ready for adoption. Just what the future will bring fortn is uncer tain, but the latest proposition is to bulla cisterns suitable for a bucket brigade and provide a hook and ladder truck for the remaining volunteers. TITLE TO INDIAN LANDS. Judge Bellinger Decides Several Con tests Relating to Reservation. Decisions affecting title to land mostly In the Umatilla Indian reservation were handed down yesterday by United States District Judge Bellinger, and many of the demurrers filed by United States District Attorney Hall were overruled, all the plaintiffs being allowed 30 days In which to further pleao. m tne case oi Alice Patawa it was stated that "the right to dower Involves a construction of a Fed' era! statute." The young woman's step mother wishes a half interest Jn the for mer's land, and the court holds that as her heir, Allco Patawa is entitled to the land in dispute. The government sustained Its contention in the demurrer filed in the suit begun by Ellen Parr and Fred Parr, the opinion staring that the government must be made a party in suits or inis class, ine de murrer filed by the District Attorney's office in the case of Phllomme Smith.

In the case of Pe-wa-lo-son-ml against Al-cn-ta-mop-not and the United States, the court decided in favor of the plaintiff, overrul ing the demurrer of the defense. A sim ilar decision was made in the suit started by Joseph Guyott agalnBt Mary Mclntyre and the United States. A decision was given against Frank Morriseft, who sued his divorced wife for land. The plaintiff asserted that when the lands were allotted his wife repre sented that she was a single woman. The court decides that Morrisett had no title to any of his former wife's land, by reason of the divorce, regardless of how she might have obtained possession. CHINA MAY RECONSTRUCT ACT- X Registration of Trade-Mark Law Un satisfactory to Other Nations. PEKIN, Oct. 20. The trademarks regis tration act, which will come into operation on October 23, is regarded as unsatisfac tory by the commercial communities of Shanghai and Tien Tsln. There is no ob jection to the principle of the act for legislation in this connection has been universally desired, but It Is considered that the act In its present shape is not practical. In the first place, the scale of fees is looked upon as being too elaborate, and the fees themselves too heavy. In the second place, it is considered that it will be impossible for the Chinese government to carry out the scheme, owing to the absence of an aaequate arid properly trained bureau. If the act goes into ope ration on the 23d Instant, as contem plated, It is expected that it will give rise to much confusion and dissatisfaction. The Governments of Great Britain and the United States approved the draft of tho measure, which was largely of Jap anese construction, without. It is alleged. adequately consulting the mercantile com munities which would be affected by It. With the view of preventing the en forcement of an immature and defective scheme, the German Minister, Baron Mumm von Schwarzensteln, though cor dially welcoming the general principles of the act. endeavored to obtain a post ponement of its operation, so that oppor tunity might be given for Its reconstruc tion. Up to this date official sanction for such postponement has not been obtained, but the correspondent of the Associated Press learned today that the British Min ister, Sir E. M. Sartow, has . been In structed to endeavor to have the operation of the act deferred. There la a possibility, therefore, that the act will be constructed. It Is now con sidered on all sides that It would be much better to recast the act on lines which would be acceptable generally than to pre cipitately enforce an unsatisfactory meas ure, especially as there Is no pressing urg ency for such enforcement. MAZES HERSELF A PRISONER Woman Unknowingly Locks Herself In CToset, zrid Is There' Four Days. NEW YORK. Oct. 20. After a frulUess search which began last Saturday and had been taken up by the police of the five boroughs of Greater New York, Mrs. Rae Singer, 20 years old, has been found locked In a closet within less than a block of her home in East New York.

They had continued Intermittently for four days. Then a woman passer-by dis covered the source and rescued the un fortunate patient. Mr. Singer, who had searched the city continuously for some trace of hi3 wife, arrived Just as she was found. She rec ognized him at once, and it Is believed will recover. "RYTT.T.
