A bird orchestra made the most enjoyable melody yesterday on the Ave poplar trees on the north side of Burnslde street, near Sixth, just opposite the Postofflce. It seemed as If several aeollan lyres had been turned loose. Dozens' of saucy Eng lish sparrows were hopping about the branches, looking as If they were about the hd of the whole show. "You can't xredlt that sort of music to those spar rows," observed a bird-fancier who hap pened along. "Sparrows are not much on the music line but they make plenty of noise with their twittering.. The real sing ers up in those trees are probably clouds of blackbirds that have temporarily set tled there during their long Journey from Eastern Oregon and Washington to warm er laUtudes down South. I have heard many of the most famous orchestras in the world, but never have I heard any of those professional musicians who play so many notes for so many cents produce either in string, wood or brass the beauti ful effects .of a bird orchestra with every bird singing Its best." Robs "Woman ix Broad Datlight. Mrs. F. Thompson, of Eugene street, was robbed of her purse at 9 o'clock yesterday morning at the corner of Fifth and Jeffer son streets. The purse contained some change and several valuable papers and important receipts. The robbery has been characterised by the police as one of the most daring that has been perpetrated in Portland for some time. The strange part of the crime is that It was committed in one of the 'busiest parts of the city in broad daylight. The robbery occurred on the corner opposite the City Hall. Mrs. Thompson was so much excited when the thief snatched her purse and ran up Jef ferson street that for a moment she never cried out nor gave pursuit. Then she cr.Ied for help and started after the thief, but he easily made his escape. The police were notified and officers were de tailed on the case. Mrs. Thompson was able to give an excellent description of the robber, and it Is thought he is the same man who held up Jeanettc Smith about 7 o'clock the night before. Dies on Wat Home. Word has been re ceived of the death of Bert Gordon, a young man well known about town, who raced with death from Juneau. Alaska, to Woodbridge, Cal., and lost. Young Gor don was taken seriously ill in Juneau, and physicians told him that he could not sur vive. He Immediately expressed a wish to gain his home before he died, and started out. At Stockton, Cal., he was met by a brother, but was so ill that he was un able to continue the journey. He was re moved to St. Joseph's Home In that city, where he died almost immediately, before his father and mother, Mr. and Mrs. M. A. Gordon, and his other brothers could reach his bedside. Civil Service Examinations. The TJnl ted States Civil Sen-ice Commission -aa nounces that on December 7-8 an ex amlnatlori will be held In this city to sc cure ellglbles from which to make.cer tificaUon to fill a vacancy In the position of Inspector of hulls of steam vessels, Cin clnnati. Ohio, at a salary of J1200 per annum; two vacancies in the position of assistant Inspector of hulls, New York. N.

Persons desiring to compete should apply to the Civil Service Commission, Washington, D. C. Mat Defeat School Bonds. It Is con sidered probable that the movement to issue $10,000 in school bonds for district No. 2 in St. Johns will be voted down next Tuesday. The bonds are wanted to build a four-room addition to the present schoolhouse, but some of the property owners think that too large an amount Is called for, and that a smaller sum would be sufficient. Defeat of the bonds will leave the proposition to build an addition to the schoolhouse in the air, as It is $10,000 or nothing. , Suspected of " Robbery. Walter Spru ance, aged 35 years, was arrested at 8 o'clock last night at the corner of Second and Everett streets by Detectives Snow and Kerrigan, who suspect Spruance of being implicated In the hold-ups which oc curred Wednesday night and early Thurs day morning.

Nlcholaon What appears to be a genuine railway locomotive steamed down to the footlights In the fourth act of "The Heart of Chi cago" at Cordray's last night and the gal lery boys rose out tof tholr seats and howled. It was a busy moment. Clouds rose from the smokestack and enveloped the scene, the engine bell clanged and the whistle rfhrieked. Three feet from the point of cowcatcher yawned, yawned is the word, an abyss, and on the cowcatcner were the hero, engineer when not en gaged in making love, and his sweetheart, who had saved the special from plunging through the drawbridge, which the villain had opened. Mr. Lincoln J. Carter turned himself loose on this situation, and its the most hair-raising thing he has con tributed to contemporaneous stage litera ture. "The Heart of Chicago" Is a corking good melodrama, of the kind which sug gests bollershops, a general alarm and a noonday Jam on State street. It's far too noisy and energetic for the tastes of Alton B. Parker, but Colonel Roosevelt ought to write a testimonial for It. It packed Cordray s last night and kept the audience a-qulver from the minute Chi cago burnt up until the villain blew his brains out Just as the final curtain fell. I couldn't suggest anything better for those who like real, blood-raw melodrama than "The Heart of Chicago." A number of good specialties are Intro duced, the mechanical effects arc the best Lincoln Carter has yet devised, and he's a wonder when it comes to devising.

UNITED STATES ARMY LOST. Two Hundred and Fifty Soldiers Can not Fipd Union Depot. Two hundred and fifty soldiers of the United States Army were" lost In Portland for three hours yesterday afternoon, the assistance of the police being necessary to locate Jhem and direct them to the Union Depot The men belonged to the Twenty- first Infantry, en route from Fort Iteogn, N. D., to San Francisco, from where tney will denart for the Philippines. The extraordinary happening was nrst brought to the attention of the police about 2 o'clock in the afternoon, when telcDhone message was received by Cap tain Grltzmacher from the Colonel of the regiment, asking that the police help lo cate a Lieutenant and 250 men who were somewhere in the city. The Colonel stated that the Lieutenant had taken out the men to exercise them and had not re turned with them to the depot, and the commanding officer stated that he did not doubt but what the men had become lost In Portland. Officers were notified and policemen throughout the city found themselves' looking for a detachment of 250 men instead of a lost child, as is usually the case. The soldiers were finally located- near the Intersection of Porter and First streets, where they were marching gal lantly about In a vain effort to locate the Union Depot. The Lieutenant stated that they had Indeed become lost and that he was afraid to lower his dignity by ac knowledging to the men that such was the case. He was directed by one officer and passed with the men from beat to beat, each officer In turn moving the detach ment one beat nearer the Union Depot. The detachment was the brunt of Jokes and witticisms all along the line, and when they arrived at the depot there was. a session with the Colonel at which all dignity was laid aside and laughter pre dominated. The Lieutenant boarded his train on the Southern Pacific with a very red face. The train had been held for over an hour In order that the soldiers might be "found and returned to the com mand. "It's a cinch," said one of the men, "that whenever anyone asks us about Portland we can tell them it is a great city. We have been quartered' In Dakota and Wyoming for so long, out In the sage brush and barren hills that three trees and seven houses Is enough to make us dellrloua We dodged, street-cars faster than we will ever dodge bullets and every bevy of schoolgirls filled us with holy terror. Portlands a great town, all right, all right, and don't you forget It." The men of the Twenty-first arrived In the crfy at 1:30 o'clock ovdr the Northern Pacific and expected to leave Immediately over the 3outhern Pacific for San Fran cisco. They learned, however, that they would have to spend several hours In Portland, and as some of the men desired exercise the Colonel ordered a Lieutenant to take 230 of them and give them what they desired. The Lieutenant did so, but the next time he will use a ball of twine and "follow the line" when ready .to go back. CATHEDRAL CHURCH FAIR. Mayor Williams Makes the Opening Speech to Large Audience. With an appropriate address Mayor Williams set the wheels of the St. Mary's Cathedral Church Fair in motion last night, and from now until November 12 the machinery which empties the pockets of dharitably inclined patrons' will grind apace. The hall in the new building at Seventh and Stark streets was ablaze with lights and brilliant with 'the coloring- of gaily decorated booths from which fair maids and matrons sold useful articles. Bevies of girls canvassed the room with books, selling chances on many handsome prizes, which will be drawn by some of the most fortunate, and the refreshment tables did a land office business with the hungry ones. St. Ann's Society, the oldest organiza tlon of the kind in the church, was taste fully decorated In red and was In charge of Miss Mollle Burke, Mrs. J. W. Sweeney, Mrs. Katherine Daly and Mrs. J. F. Shea. There was a beautiful collection of fancy worn on sale at tme Doom, and many pictures and other articles of value which are to be sold or raffled. Among them might be mentioned a child s automobile. which is the center of interest for all the small boys, and a birds eye maple lady's writing dcsK. In a dress of blue and white the Altar Society offers the same kind of articles for sale. Mrs. Joseph Reidel Is in charge. assisted by Mrs. M. F. Gallagher and Mrs. William Elbers. This is a pretty booth. and deserving of the good business It is doing. The Ladles' Aid Society has also trimmed its booth in blue and white and has a great array of exceptionally fine fancy work. Mrs. D. W. Burke, Miss Mary McKay and Mrs. A. S. Johnson are In charge. The Young Ladies Sodality and the 11 nrary nave comDined m a pretty stand o: yellow, lighted with yellow-capped Tights. The effect of this Is striking and the pretty girls in charge make It a center of attrac tion. Miss Mamie O'Neil. Miss Louise Rice and Mice Mazle Murchr will attend to the wants' of the public at this booth and sell anything- from a fully dressed doll to an ironbblder. Selling- candy from large stand draped ia old Ireland's colors were MJee Susie Stott and Mus Jane Mc- Brlde, while Mrs. M.-E. Foley. Mrs. P. F. Le&vey ana Mrs. Springer had charge of the refreshment tables. A beautiful Jap anese tearoom was one. of the principal features of the fair, and was presided over by Mrs. H. A. Dillon and Mrs. f. it. Hamberger. Miss Mamie Helen Flynn baited the hooks of the fisherman in the nh pond, and Mrs. James Sutton told fortunes like a real gypsy. Father McDevltt was the life of the fair last night, and kept every one stirred up to the buying point. Judge Williams hov ered suspiciously near a slot machine, but was rescued from a raid by General Burke. Good cheer, mingled with a desire to assist the church, was the order of the evening; and it seems that a great success is assured for the worthy undertaking. Luncheon will he served every noon at the hall during the time the fair runs. OPPOSED TO (JEA35IYAEI. Judge Thinks People Have Right to Be Married in Peace. By his action in the Municipal Court yesterday morning. Judge Hogue has gone on record as against the charivari, and young married couples and prospective brides and grooms will call him blessed. The first blow was struck night before last when Officer Adams arrested Fred Farrer and John .Hoover for disturbing a wedding- ceremony at 313 Mason street. Albina. Officer Adams was called upon at 8 o'clock to protect the welfare of the newly-married people, and upon going to the address found a crowd of 25 young men and boys, who were demonstrating their nolse-saaklns ability with every in strument from an old vilolln to a tin can with a string through It. The two boys mentioned were captured, and yes terday Judge Hogue ordered them to jail until they were willing to give the names of the rest of the boys Implicated. The boys soon did so, and the crowd will ap pear before Judge Hogue today at the regular session of the Municipal Court. In a statement to Attorney Fitzgerald, Judge Hogue stated that a man and wo man have a right to get married without intereference from a gang of hoodlums, and that they were entitled to the pro tection of the police. "It is high time that the barbaric cus tom of the charivari, as for years con ducted by hoodlums, shall be broken," said the Judge. ESTIMATE OF ST. PATH. Speaker at Y. M. C. A. Analyzes Char acter of the Apostle. A critical estimate, tinged with worship, of the life of Saul of Tarsus, Paul, the Apostle, was given at the Y. M. C. A. last night by the American orator, George R. Wendllng. Mr. Wendllng-has thought out and written himself the lines he reads so well, and he adds an earnest intent to his orator. t Those who have merely read the Epis tles of Paul, or have heard a sermon on his life from the standpoint of religion alone, would do well to seize the next opportunity to hear Mr. Wendllng bring out clearly the points of his career that make for greatness. He sees In bis hero a man of unequaled physical and moral courage, a thinker, a genius, a great religious man, too great to be altogether fanatical In his belief, hut in deadly earn est; an orator from whose many appeals to Christianity nine fragmentary sen tences alone have served to hold the Christian world spell-bound; a man with sympathies as wide as the universe, and a nature as gentle as a woman's. Mr. Wrcndllng- was the first of the lec turers, who will come to Portland this Winter under the auspices of the Star -course, of. the Yr. M. C. A, ME. BROWITELL IS MODEST. Clackamas County Senator Does Not Realize His New Dignity George C. Brownell, of Oregon City, was in the city yesterday to call on Senator Fulton, State Chairman Baker .and other plenipotentiaries. Mr. Brownell, In the absence ef Governor Chamberlain and Secretary of State Dunbarfrom the state, Is acting Governor. However, he mod estly denied that he was "acting" in any sense whatever. Said he. when asked how much longer he would continue to act as Governor, and each word had an icicle on it: "I didn't realize I had been acting Gov ernor." "Save you been to Salem yet?" No, Mr. Brownell hadn't. -"But they're expecting you."- "Yes, I know," quoth Mr. Brownell, "but that's the reason I'm staying away,' adding that he supposed if he should go up to Salem he'd find half the Inhabitants of the town lined up at the depot to meet him. The last question Mr. Brownell would hear was whether ho knew when Mr. Chamberlain would get back to Oregon, and he answered It curtly by saying: "No, God bless you, I don't." In a tone of voice Indicating that he didn't care, either. ' TO SUPPORT FLORENCE ROBERTS Melbourne MacDowell is Engaged to Fill Vacancy in, Star's Company, Melbourne MacDowell, the famous fsardou star, who recently played an en gagement at the Baker, has been engaged as leading man for Florence Roberts to succeed Hobart Bosworth, who so signally distinguished himself here a few week4 ago in "Tess" and .

A delegation from Willamette Heights, headed by Colonel James Jackson and N. Levinson, waited upon a special meet ing of the street committee of the Execu tive Board yesterday afternoon to ask again for means to cross Batch's Gulch while the new bridge is bejng erected. "We don't care so much for ourselves as for our wives and children." said Mr. Levinson, and the others echoed his senti ment. The street committee, had planned a switchback sidewalk across the bottom of the gulch and up the sides, but it was ex plained that such a sidewalk would be a constant temptation to highwaymen. It was finally agreed to build a walk for pedestrians at the side of the old wooden bridge, which wiil "hot be torn down until the new steel bridge Is completed. Mr. Boise wanted it understood, however, that the city would not be liable for any In juries received on this walk. COLUMBIA THEATER Geo. IX Baker, Mxr. Fhoae Mala 119.
