12 THE MORNING' OKEGOOTAN, FRIDAY, NOVEMBER. 4, 1904. The Japanese Emperor's Birthday His Subjects in Portland Celebrate Natal Anniversary With Enthusiasm Tttv. blood-red banner of Japan, on a white ground, emblem o the Bis-. Ins Bun, had more significance than usual to .Portland Japanese yesterday, for the occasion "was the 52d anniver sary of the birth of the Emperor of Japan. The Japanese colony patiently waited all day and evening-, hoping: that the telegraph would at last flash the news that Por;t Arthur had fallen, but their celebration had to gretalong: without that event happening. "Never mind," was the invariable Japanese re sponse, "it Is only a Question of time when Port Arthur will be ours." The Japanese "Vice-Consul, Tsunejl Alba, held a reception at his offices in the Commercial block, from 10 A. 1L to 8:30 P. 1L, and both American and Jap anese tendered him congratulations. Dainty lunch was served by smiling:, polite Japanese, and cigars and cigar ettes were not forgotten. Among the callers was James Laldlaw, British Consul at this port. Nearly all the Japanese in this city and suburbs attended a meeting held last night in the Alisky building. Third and Morrison streets, and the hall was filled to overflowing with patriots and American friends. All who could speak ingusn, Deiore xne meeting Degan ais caused the Russo-Japanese war, and, of course, agreed that the Japanese are great people. The stairways were deco rated with colored lanterns, and in the hall were more lanterns, and American and Japanese flags entwined together. On the platform were pictures of the Emperor and Empress of Japan, and these pictures were carefully kept cov ered until a given moment. S. Ban was chairman and he first spoke in Japanese and then In English, proposing long life, health and happiness to the Em peror, and he also spoke on the com fmercial expansion of Japan. Considerable ceremony was observed In the rolling up and down of the cur tain hiding the pictures of the Em peror and Empress. Addresses were also delivered by "Vice-Consul Alba, H. Ka mamoto, S. Wakabayashl, S. Toshioka, and others. Several songs In Japanese were sung by a sextet of young men, and there was great enthusiasm when averybody who could do so sang the Japanese National anthem. Then a sa lute was gtyen to the 'Emperor, there were shouts of "Banzai," and the mer rymakers went home to wait for more war news. TAKE NO ACTION YET Neither Sheriff Nor Police Raid Fantan Games. LOOKOUTS IN PLAIN SIGHT Chief Hunt Says It Will Be Difficult to Convict Chinamen, and the Charge of Graft Is Not investigated. No official investigation of the charges made by Councilman Zimmerman Wednes day that fantan games were running in Chinatown under protection of the graft system has yet been made by Chief of Police Hunt. The resolution passed by the Council asking the Mayor to instruct the Chief to this effect has not been sent to Judge "Williams." But there is little need of any Investi gation, so far as the present operations of the fantan games are concerned. Sec ond street last evening was much the same as ever. The alleyways of several 'fantan games were dark, but in others the lookout man could be seen just the same, as usual. Apparently, the heathen Chinee who wanted to risk his wages could do so without hunting long for the oppor tunity. "It will be hard to catch them," said 3Iayor "Williams yesterday. "When an officer gets there he won't find a China man or any game. I haven't seen the resolution since it was read in the Coun cil." The street numbers of SI establishments where it was reported fantan games were in progress was attached to the resolu tion. These are hardly needed by an experienced officer, for the location of every Chinese gambling-house is known to every one at all acquainted with that quarter. Councilman Zimmerman's direct charge of graft is a matter which the other city officials do not like to discuss. The fact that Sheriff Word ordered these places. closed, and raided several, and that they are now running and have been running ever since a week or two of the shut-up order, gives point to Mr. Zimmerman's charge. So it is a delicate subject for dis cussion around the City Hall and Court house. Sheriff Word has again ordered the fantan games to close, and if the man date is not Qiuckly obeyed more raids will probably be made. The boss gamblers have been busy in the interim, however. and more big Iron-bound doors than ever keep out white intruders, officers especi ally. Thirteen Chinese lotteries have also been running. These have not been molested by any official. Their location is also known to every well-informed policeman and detective. Regarding the fantan proposition. Chief of Police Hunt said yesterday: "Of course, I at present know nothing of the situation. I shall, however. Investigate the 34 places named by the Council, and report back to that body the condition of affairs as I find them. I shall en deavor to discover whether fantan is be ing played in those places or not, and let the Council know. At present there is little to say regarding the case. After an investigation I will .perhaps, -bo able to say more." INDIAN AS ADVANCE 'AGENT. M. F. Vernur Represents Musical Or ganlzatlon of Alaskan Aborigines. M. F. "Vernur, an Indian of Met- lakatla, Alaska, is in Portland as the advance guard of the Metlakatla Indian Band.' The band Is perhaps the oldest Indian band in existence, having been formed by Father Duncan SO years ago. It is composed of 40 pieces and Is well trained and recognized as a musical or ganization of good standing. At the" pres ent tune there is nut one man witn tne company who was a member at the time of Its organization. This man Is Roderick Murchison. who was the first bandmaster. Father Duncan. Is the oldest missionary of the Northwestern country. He is now more than 70 years of age, and went to TwD JAPANESE PROMINENT IN MIKADO'S BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION ONSUL British Columbia as a missionary 40 years ago the first of last month. He is the patriarch of the Indians among whom he has worked and Is regarded as a father by them. In 1587. when Great Britian, by adverse legislation, took from the Indians their lands In British Co lumbia Father Duncan gathered his fol lowing around him and took the whole tribe to the Island of Mctjakatla, where he has built up a' city and taught his In dians the ways of civilization. There are now 1500 Indians on the island. Mr. Vernur will return to Seattle thla evening to meet his band, which will reach that place Saturday afternoon. PLANS FOE PASSENGER AGENTS Northern Pacific Officials Will Entertained in Portland. Be A M. Cleland, general passenger agent of the Northern Pacific, has wired A. D. Charlton, assistant general passenger agent, that the party of Northern Pa cific officials now touring the territory of the company would reach Spokane on No vember 9. Mr. Charlton will leave Port land on the evening of November S for Spokane, where he will join the party and accompany It on the rest of its trip through the Northwest. It is calculated that the excursionists will reach Portland on November 15 and plans are being made for their entertain ment. A trip will be arranged for the party to the mouth of the Columbia and possibly as far out over the bar as the weather conditions will permit. Another excursion will be taken up the Columbia to The Dalles, while side trips will be made to Oregon City, Vancouver, Esta- cada and the other points of interest. It is Mr. Charlton's wish to have the party stay in Portland for at least three days in order that the members can see everything that is to be seen in and around the city. Trolley rides will be pro vided for and especial prominence will be given the visit to and Inspection of the Lewis and Clark Exposition grounds. The plans for the entertainment are now under general discussion and definite ar rangements will be made as soon as It is known just when the visitors will reach the city and how long they will remain. USE FOE WASTE LIMBER. Beliingham Man Proposes to Make Big Profits From Sawmills. i W. E. Young, of the Pacific American Tar Company, of Beliingham, Wash., which has been running a wood distillery on Puget Sound for several months, is in Portland talking up the establishment of retorts at the sawmills here. If he can have a sufficient guarantee from the mill men that they will furnish him the crude oil, which is manufactured by simple process, he will establish a re finery in Portland. Be has Just estab lished one In Vancouver, B. C The thing about the scheme which appeals to the mlllowners Is that It turns the waste Into a profitable product. Mr. Young says ho will establish a re finery here if the mills will guarantee him COO gallons a day. Each cord of wood will turn out 25 gallons of crude material. which can be made Into tar, tar oil and turpentine. The sort of refinery he would establish here will turn out per month 1200 or 1500 gallons of turpentine, 55 or 00 barrels of tar, 10 barrels of tar oil and 2000 sacks of charcoal. No Hose Wagon for Fireboat. The fire committee of the Executive Board yesterday read over Chief Camp bell's estimate of the departmental ex pense sfor 1905. Mayor Williams suggested that the hose wagon for the fireboat be dropped. As to the formation of fivo new companies. Chief Campbell explained that he had estimated for six months only, as the other half of the year would probably be over before the houses and apparatus were ready. George F. Walker, superintendent of the fire-alarm system, recommended that the firemen's private alarm wires to their homes be removed from the telephone poles or arranged as are the regular alarm wires. A short time ago a telephone line man was injured because one of his com pany's wires was crossed with a private wire which had in turn crossed , with trolley wire. The protests of the company resulted in the recommendation, but Mayor Williams said there was no press ing need for the city to assume the ex pense. There was one fire alarm for each day in October. Two old horses belonging to the department were stolen from a pasture in South Portland during the month. KED EXES AND XTTEUDS.

SEES GREAT POSSIBILITIES Harney and Klamath Counties Im press Him as Being Worthy of Special Attention From the Government Bureau. Senator Fulton has taken un the enuse of Harney and KlamatBTCounty irrigation projects and will urge them on the Rec lamation Bureau at Washington. He has Just returned from a trip to Burns, whith er he went to look Into the SUvies River irrigation project and to speak for Roose velt and Fairbanks. Two weeks ago he visited Klamath County on the same mis sion. "In Harney County," said the Sena tor yesterday, "I found the people de pressed with the idea that the grand pos sibilities of the Silvles River project were overlooked by the Jsatlonal Government and influential citizens of Oregon. The Harney country is remote from centers of the state s activity as it has no railroad; it seems to be neglected by commercial Interests and it feels that its resources are not duly appreciated. But I gave as surance that this part of Oregon has 2 very deep interest and that it will do all It can to promote Harney s irrigation work and to secure railroad connections." Mr. Fulton does not agree with Mr. Newell, chief of the reclamation service. who believes that Silvles River does not afford enough water for the proposed irri gation work. Mr. Whistler and other Government engineers who examined the possibilities of the project estimated that enough water was available by damming SUvies River so as to store up floods to irrigate 300,000 acres of land. But Mr. Newell later decided that not more than 80,000 or 100,000 acres could be made pro ductive and deemed the project impractic able for the present. "In my opinion," said the Senator, "Mr. Newell overestimates the amount of water necessary to make that land productive. All of us who live in Oregon know that a little water will go a long way and do a great deal. In Umatilla County are semiarid lands that yield bountifully of grain frequently In defiance of cherished theories. I know of one farm in particu lar in that county which produces from 40 to 50 bushels of wheat to the acre on that kind of 'land. I am very sure that Silvles River brings down enough water to reclaim far more land than has been credited to it by Mr. Newell." Mr. Fulton proceeded to describe the soil and the capabilities which he had ob served it to possess under semiarid con ditions. A tract of 30 acres several miles north of Burns, he said, produced 80 bushels of barley to the acre this year and wasn't blessed with much water. either. The annual rainfall, 15 Inches, 1ST. Fulton thinks, would help to make the irrigation problem simple. Silvles River flows Into Malheur Lake, where It glints in the Summertime to tantalize the thirsty land surrounding. Use of the water for Irrigation is ex pected to cause contraction of the lako and render land now submerged fit for agriculture. The altitude of the lake basin is about 4000 feet, yet apples, pears, cherries, grapes and many other fruits crow profusely. The Senator had never seen finer potatoes nor cereals. "I think the National Government should undertake this reclamation project rlcht away." said the Senator. "What ever influence I possess will be spent in that direction. Effort In behalf of Harney County will not delay the Malheur project which finds most favor with the Reclama tion Bureau. There Is room In Oregon for several great irrigation works, and since this state has contributed so large a share of the reclamation fund it is en titled to the expenditure of a big -sum of money for irrigation." The people of Harney County, Mr. Ful ton remarked, would bo glad to assist the Government In. acquiring necessary lands if the Government would point the way and say what it wanted. About 10 per cent of" the land required Is still retained by the Government. The KlamAth project Mr. Fulton de scribed as similar In many respects to that In Harney. Its elevation Is about the same, but & great deal more water available. Several private Irrigation en terprises are now under way there, one of them headed by Henry Ankeny, but they have promised to yield to the Gov eminent when it desires to enter. Some 320.000 acres could be reclaimed in Klam ath. Senator Fulton fears that railroad ex tensions from California may make Klam ath County tributary to that state. Har ney County he views with less apprehen sion since its natural rail connections will be through Sumpter and Baker City. The best rail route from Western to Eastern Oregon, he says, would be by the proposed line it the Corvallls & Eastern out of Albany. BELIEVES IN FAIRY TALES. Miss Harriet Hassler Thinks Children Should Have Them. It was many months ago that Miss Har riet Hassler, children's librarian at the Portland Library, won the heart of each child who came to the reading room and' into her sunny presence, and now Miss Hassler, having met a large roomful of mothers in convention to learn about beneficial reading matter for children, has acquired just so many more friends and co-workers. She had been invited to meet with the Home Training Association yes terday at the Young Women's Christian association rooms and gave a thoroughly sensible and useful talk on books for very young children, not forgetting the first lullabies, nursery sorigs and picture books. which are to be carried into the Mother Goose rhymes and jingles, fables, myths and legends. In addition to these were recommended certain books from which stories Bhould be told to children: "King Arthur Stories," "Robin Hood Tales," Hawthorne's "Tanglewood Tales" and "Wonder Book," Lang's "Book of Ro mance" and certain parts of the Pilgrim's Progress. In addition a few nature books were suggested, "Birds and Nature," which Is to be obtained in bound volumes, being mentioned as especially good. Charming books of songs for children are the lullabies of Eugene Field and Rob ert Louis Stevenson, set to music by Reg lnald De Koven, Neldllngcrs "Small Songs for Small Singers," illustrated in color by Walter Babbitt; "Old English Singing Games," and "Nursery Songs and Rhymes of England," both arranged by Alice Gomme and illustrated by Winifred Smith, Miss Hasslers ideas on stories for chil dren are of the most wholesome sort; she believes In good, sturdy hero tale of ancient Greece and Rome, and of the valiant Norsemen, and has no sympathy with the idea once prevalent that fairy tales, at least of the kind set down by Hans Andersen and the Brothers Grimm, can do Intelligent children any harm. "What a pitiful childhood is that," said Miss Hassler, "which passes in ignorance of such royal playfellows as Andrew Lang and Hawthorne, of the Brothers Grimm and of Hans Christian Andersen, the king of story tellers, toward whom Jo'hn White Chadwick so beautifully expresses the children's attitude when he speaks of hearing a familiar sound at heaven's door When Banish Hans that way did softly wend. A sound of children making merriest din. Of -welcome as the old man entered in. After discussing the child's first songs and stories, Miss Hassler said: "Let us not destroy the child's naturally correct eye for color and line by giving him florid, cheap picture, books, with im possible green cows and red cats, when such really attractive books as Grace Greenaways, Walter Crane's and Boutet De Monvel's can be bad from 25 cents up. What Is the uso of demanding that they be truthful If we are constantly giv ing them pictures that are false to Nature, false to art and false to common sense? Then while we arc trying to train their sense of beauty in line and color let us see to It that we are not giving them picture books of the Maud Humphrey type with overdressed, self-conscious children little prigs with pasty pink and white faces, yellow curls arid expression less china blue eyes and very stiff be ruffled petticoats. These will not only pervert their sense of really wholesome, childlike beauty, but give them false standards of excellence, making them think that ruffles make the child. "Compare one of Boutet De Monvel's in I ml table baby figures to a Maud Hum phrey child; there is more character in one funny little leg of the former than In the whole picture of the Maud Humphrey type."

ONE OF BEST OF HER CLASS Custom-House Report for October 8hows Large Increase In Value of Exports End of Northern Sealing Season. The arrival of three more deep-water sailers livened up the harbor yesterday. The newcomers were the Italian ship S. Celeste, British ship Durbridge and French bark Asie. The Italian vessel has miscel laneous cargo from Antwerp. The other two came in ballast from California, the Durbridge to load lumber and the Asie after wheat. The 9. Celesto was by far the most at tractive one of the trio. Seldom has a finer appearing ship reached this port. She is modern In every respect, and has every labor-saving device for the handling of cargo or operation of the ship that can be found on any craft. Besides this the vessel is exceedingly trim and tidy about her decks and her cabins are furnished handsomely. The smart uniforms of her officers also attracted much attention. The ship Is commanded by Captain Gut- seppe aiaresca, a Drotner-in-iaw or tne owner, and he was accompanied on the voyage by hl3 young wife. Though hail ing from Castllamare, the S. Celeste Is owned by Paulo Samengo. of Naples. She was launched at Dumburton In December, 1902 at the yards of McMillan & Son, Ltd. Her registered tonnage Is 1946 and her di mensions are: Length, 267.5 feet; beam. 40.1 feet; depth of hold. 23.6 feet. Paulo Samengo also owns the SL Amalla, of 1751 tons, and the S. Margherlta, of 17S7 tons. The former Is now on the way from Sundswall to Natal, and the latter, which Is commanded by a brother of Captain Maresca is en route from Newcastle to Caldera. "Captain Maresca reports a generally uneventful passage out from Antwerp, which was made In 161 days to the Co lumbia River. When 20 day3 out from the Belgian port a young sailor had the mis fortune to fall overboard, but, being good swimmer, he divested himself of hla clothing and succeeded in keeping afloat until a boat from the ship could reach him. The S. Celeste is consigned to Taylor, Young & Co.. and brings the following cargo, the discharging of which will com' mence at Fuller's dock this morning: Fifty cases or wniSKy, one caee oi terra coua statuary, 250 bags of superphosphate, 350 cases pi Deer, 33 casKs or. picmes, a cases of currle powder, 570 cases of lucca oil, 17 cases of vinegar, 1 cask of essence of cof fee, 15 barrels of ginger ale, 20 cases of gin, 5 cases of Jamaica rum. U.iOO bar rels of cement and a quantity of coke. The ship is chartered by the North' western Warehouse Company, and when her Inward cargo la out will begin load ing wheat at Irving dock for Europe. The well-known French bark Asie, Cap tain Olllvand, is also chartered by the same firm for grain loading. She is in bal last from San Pedro, and made the run up in 21 days. No incident of Importance occurred on the trip. The bark was given anchorage In the lower part of the harbor, and today will move to one of the ballast docks, probably Banfleld's, to discharge. The British ship Durbridge, in command of Captain Nannell, came up from San Francisco after an uneventful passage 24 days. She Is under engagement to the North Pacific Mills to take a lumber cargo to Delagoa Bay. She lsnow lying at Mar tin's dock.

Steamer Harold Dollar Goes to the Siberian Coast for Furs. The steamer Harold Dollar has Just left Seattle on a long and dangerous voyage. She Is oft for Petropaylovsky and goes to secure the remainder of the furs left by the steamer Mineola. Petropavlovsky Is a little trading cost on the Siberian coast. Early in the season a valuable lot or rurs were gatn ered there by a large Russian trading company. The ilineoia, weu-Known this coast, was chartered to carry sup piles to the post and take out the furs. Contrary to expectations the Mineola made her voyage to the trading station without being interfered with by the Japs.

The French bark Europe, which arrived in a few days ago from Hobart, is being re measured by Deputy Collector of Customs McCue In order that the correct amount of tonnage dues may be collected from her. Her papers show her net tonnage to be 2070 tons, but It appears that In' France exemptions in the measurements are al lowed that are not permitted In this coun try and an agreement was recently made between the two eovernments that all French vessels coming to America shall have an amended register so that they shall pay tonnage dues here on the same basis that American vessels pay in that country. The Europe has not been to her home port since this agreement went into effect. so a remeasurement here was necessary. This is the first instance of the kind at this port, but one vessel was recently re- measured at San Francisco, the result be ing that her- tonnage dues were increased by about iU. The Europe must pay ton nage dues at the rate of 6 cents per ton and her new register, which will probably be determined tomorrow, will not only affect this amount, but will also affect the amount of pilotage dues collected.

Co KBtlaXimTmL klf a CmMmt THE ROOT OF THE MATTER He Cured Himself of Serious Stamach Trouble by Getting Down to First Principles. A man of large affairs In-one f of our prominent Eastern cities by too close at tention to business, too little exercise and too many club dinners, finally began to pay Nature's tax, levied in the form of chronic stomach trouble; the failure of his digestion brought about a nervous Irritability, making it Impossible to apply himself to his dally business and finally deranging the kidneys and heart. In his own words he says: "I consulted one physician after another, and each one seemed to understand my case, but all the same they each failed to bring about the return of my former digestion, appe tite and vigor. For two years I went from pillar to post, from one sanitarium to an other, I gave up smoking. I quit coffee and even renounced my daily glass or two of beer, but without any marked improve ment! Friends had often advised me to try a well-known proprietary medicine, Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, and I had often pe rused the newspaper advertisements of the remedy, but never took any stock' in advertised medicines, nor could believe a 50-cent patent medicine would touch my case. "To make a long story short I finally bought a couple of packages at the near est drugstore and took two or three tab lets after each meal and occasionally a tablet between meals, when I felt any , feeling of nausea or discomfort. "I was surprised at the end of the first week to note a marked improvement in my appetite and general health and before the two packages were gone I was cer tain that Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets was going to cure completely, and they did not disappoint me. I can eat and sleep and enjoy my coffee and cigar and no one would suppose I had ever known the horrors of dyspepsia. "Out of friendly curiosity I wrote to the proprietors of the remedy asking for information as to what the tablets con tained and they replied that the principal Ingredients were aseptic pepsin (Govern ment test), malt diastase and other nat ural digestives, which digest food regard less of the condition of the stomach." The root of the matter Is this, the di gestive elements contained in Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets will digest the food. give the overworked stomach a chance to recuperate and the nerves and whole system receive the nourishment which can only come from food; stimulants and nerve tonics never give reai strengtn, they give a fictitious strength, invariably followed by reaction." Every drop of blood. every nerve and tissue Is manufactured from our daily food, and If you can In sure it sprompt action and complete di gestion by the regular use of so good and wholesome a remedy as Stuart's Dys pepsia Tablets, you will havS" no need of nerve tonics and sanitariums. Although Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been in the market only a few years yet probably every druggist In the United States, Canada and Great Britain now sells them and considers them the most popular and successful of any prepara tion for stomach trouble. 1 iton FasMoned Apparel is the smartest and best Ready-to-don Clothing for Men that can be produced.
