THE MOKNING OKEGOSIAN, TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 15, 1904.
THEY WERE AMAZED
Executive Board Startled to
Learn of Deficit in Funds.
DEPARTMENTS DRAW HEAVILY
Increase in Fire and Police Branches!
of City Service Necessary During
Fair Will Cause Deficiency
of Quarter Million.
EXPENSES ESTIMATED BY
DEPARTMENTS.
Deficit Fire Department S1M.640.O0
Deficit Police Department 73.122.00
Deficit Imp. bond Interest.... 18,000.00
General expenses 310.330 .25
Total $573,102.25
Estimated expenditures above
estimated' receipts J53.602.-o
That the .total estimated expenditures
exceed the estimated receipts by 5250,000
-was the startling announcement made by
City Auditor Devlin to a special meeting
of the Executive Board yesterday after
noon. " '
The meeting was called for the purpose
of bluepenclllng the departmental esti
mates, and two hours were consumed.
But after much discussion the Fire De
partment's estimate of $247,890 was prac
tically passed up to the Council. A cut
must be made and the Councilmen must
wield the shears. The Executive Board
sanctioned the estimate for the depart
ment without extensions or Improvements,
5164,840, and allowed 5800 for four reserve
horses.
"These estimates exceed the receipts
from taxes and licenses by 5253,000." said
Mr. Devlin, when he began to read his
tabulated statement. The members
gasped audibly. The City Auditor's fund
of minute knowledge on all things municl-
nal was reocatedly called upon.
"What do you think we can allow for
the Fire Department?" asked .Mayor wu
Hams, when the big total for that branch
of the city service had been read.
"I think we must go under ?1S5,000," re
plied Mr. Devlin.
"Whether a new engine company should
be installed at Third and Gllsan streets or,
at Fulton was the main question. Mr.
Flledner, of the fire committee, said that
the lot donated the city on Third street
for an engine-house was an expensive
gift, as much piling must be laid for a
foundation. The Mayor remarked that
as the streets in the downtown district
had been greatly improved, the engines
could reach a fire in that region more rap
idly than before.
Though Mr. Boise moved that all the
estimates but the running expenses and
the money for the new horses be stricken
out. Fulton has a far better chance of
receiving additional fire protection next
vear than .has North Portland.
The estimate of 5161,332 for the Police
Department was cut to $126,800. Fifty
extra patrolmen will be employed during
the Exposition, and ten additional men
will be put on the first of the year.
"You can't break in a policeman In 30
days." said Mr. SIcheU of the police com
mittee. "I noticed In SL Louis the other
day that a regiment of soldiers guarded
the foreign exhibits. At the clpse of fairs
people are always hunting for souvenirs;
and the foreign exhibits are much dam
aged. Why couldn't we have soldiers
here?"
"We tiave a regiment at Vancouver,"
said Mr. Boise.
The City Engineer's and the street re
pair estimates of 575.792 and 557,866 were
passed without hesitation. The street
cleaning and sprinkling estimate was cut
to 590,000. The minor estimates, including
one of 52500 for the City Museum, went
through unscathed.
AT THE THEATERS
What the Press Agents Say.
WHITE WHITTLESEY TONIGHT,
Presents "Heartsease" and "The Sec
ond in Command" at Marquam.
To-night at the Marquam Grand Thea
ter the handsome young romantic actor.
White Whittlesey, will begin an engage
ment of two nights, presenting this even
ing "Heartsease,'" to-morrow evening
"The Second in Command." The scenic
equipments of the Whittlesey Company
are of an exceptional order, everything
being carried by the organization for the
plays mentioned.
A trained choir is also part of the or
ganizatlon for the rendition of the music
In "Heartsease, and among the players
are such well-known people as Engenie

Sherman.
"'The Gay Parisians."
The stock company at the Columbia
Theater has made a decided hit in Its
newest offering. "The Gay Parisians." a
farce that is French, but not so Frenchy
that it shocks even the most confirmed
prude.
The piece was unknown in Portland.
Playgoers had heard that it was an up
roarious affair from the French, laid
was presented for 200 nights kn succession
by Sadie Martinot and a carefully selected
cast In New l ork: that its plot was com
Plicated and almost beyond description.
But nothing of the sensation which it has
evidently created was even dreamed of
by the management.
The crowds emerging from the Colum
bia Sunday afternoon and night were
"boosters." one and all. Everybody had a
good word to say about the production.
with Its various unexcelled features, and
lrom the praise bestowed by the public
as well as the critics, who are unanimous,
it Is. apparent that the company has
made the hit of the season.
Most of the favorabe talk is concerning
the second act. In which the characters
are brought together under-most extra
ordinary circumstances In a Paris hotel
and restaurant. The action here becomes
so strenuous, on account of the efforts of
the several couples to keep front being
discovered by friends and acquaintances,
that a good deal of the rapid-fire dialogue
is actually drowned by the laughter and
applause.
Three solid hour5 of laughter ought to
be good for any constitution and it in as
suredly furnished in this week's bill at
' the Columbia.
COMING ATTRACTIONS.
'"The Runaways" Sale Today.
This morning at 10 o'clock the advance
saje of seats will open for Arthur Dunn

edy, "As You Like It," Miss Gale as
Rosalind" has made an enviable reputa
tion in the East, having received great
praise from the critics for her artistic
work. She Is supported by an excellent
company of players.
Sweet and Clean Comedy.
"Candida" comes to the Marquam Grand
Theater next Monday,' Tuesday and
Wednesday nights. November 21, 22 and 23,
heralded as one of the sweetest and clean
est comedies of modern times. As a dra
matic offering it is said to excite laugh
ter and tears, while in literature It ranks
as a rare masterpiece. Delicious humor
and the keenest wit are happily inter
woven with laughable incident and some
of the most entertaining, as well as orig
inal characters ever seen in a play. In a
word it makes you laugh, think and lose
youreelf all In the same scene. It was
last season's pet success In New York
and gained a large following from all
classes of theater-goers. It was written
by George Bernard Shaw, wit, novelist
and critic, whose works, are now in 'great
demand.
AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS
At the Star.
At the Star a new -vaudeville bill was
presented yesterday which will be found
more than Interesting to the large class
of people who appreciate this light form
of entertainment. The three Avolas are
the headiners, with the Yale due fea
tured. The Avolas consist of a father
and his two sons and the trio give an
acrobatic act which is full of novelties.
It proved a big card. The Yale duo ma
nipulate clubs and they have discovered
that club Juprcllnc need not be conducted
in the slipshod manner which so many
club swingers exhibit In this line of en
deavor. Carter and Mendel are a couple
of rapid-fire conversationalists who tell
jokes In a breezy style which adds much
to the effectiveness of the point. New
and old gags arc sprung and all win ap
plause. Adeline Blrchler Is an operatic
vocalist, one of the few good voices heard
in vaudeville. This woman strengthens
the bill considerably- Richard Burton Is
a story teller and graphically relates his
tales to music. The Musical Harts have
a musical act In which they introduce a
number of musical instruments and Mrs.
Hart makes a hit with the latest song
success. "A Bit of Blarney." The moving
pictures reproduce scenes from a foun
dling asylum and combine comedy witn
pathos.
At the Arcade.
Variety of entertainment marks
the
new Arcade bill, which opened to a big
matinee house yesterday. For the current
week the position at the head of the bill
la occupied by the Fern Comedy Four.
This Is one of the most expensive acts
the Arcade has given its patrons and it Is
also one of the strongest features the
house has billed. The four comedians
have excellent voices and their quartet
numbers were received with heavy ap-
nlause. The Fern Comedy Four was en
cored nearly five times at the .opening
performance. The comedy clement is of
the sort which takes best with a vaude
vllle audience because the humor Is ap
parent. The Adams brothers offer a re
fined singing and dancing turn. A novelty
of this act Is In the acrobatic dancing of
the men. This is something new and
never before seen on a local stage. Di
vine Dodson, one of the best female im
nersonators In the business, and one who
carries a brilliant wardrobe- and Injects
comedy In hjs singing, was another act
deserving of more than passing notice.
Kate Coyle. the ever-popular singer of
illustrated ballads, has discarded the pic
tures this week. Her song Is a military
one, such as become favorites with the
boys. On the bioscope there are pictures
of the St, Louis fair, the adventures of
an Irishman, and pictures or children.
At the Lyric.
Managers Keating & Flood opened
new programme yesterday which Is up to
the standard of this house. The acts are
clever and the bill Is well balanced with
eomedv. melody, acrobatic turns and sun
ilar striking and .enjoyable specialties,
pir-st hnnnrs eo to Vorce and Werda.
They have a musical turn that proves
refreshinir in Its novelties. The act Is
well dressed, too, and carries electrical
ofTerts. These musicians, aside lrom
nlavlnc on brass and string Instruments,
do stunts on devices such as a row of
dolls and basket of flowers. The turn Is
srlven increased interest because the selec
tions rendered are up-to-date and are of
that quality known as popular. The De-
caros offer an act on the itoman rings
They are experienced people and do their
-ork with mat pousn ana imisn
mn only be acquired by years pi wont
"Ward and Ward have a comedy sketch
In which there Is an assortment of Jokes,
songs and dances, being the kind that
win response from the audience. Douglas
and Douglas are acrobats of no m$dlocre
ability. Ther perform some really nota
ble feats and they work rapidly, especial
ly when doing their tumbling. Harry
Hoyt, the balladlst, contributes the Illus
trated song. "Kate and I." An exciting
and laughable scries of moving pictures
completes the performance.
The 'Baker.
The Baker Theater was crowded to the
doors last night, and the show presented
was a blc one. The Travioias, neaa Dai
ancers, hoop rollers and Jugglers, perform
a most remarkable act, which of Its kind
has probably never been excelled. The
Irvlnir trio do a clever acrooauc turn
and McShaffrey's musical gypsies play
well on various unique Instruments. Jen
ninsrs O'Brien and Mann and Franks pre
sent a mirth-provoking comedy called
"Our Uncle." The other features of the
entertainment are Clarence Marks, Ger
man comedian: Pearcy brothers in
sketch called "Fun With the New
Teacher." and Darnold's .wonderful
trained dogs and cats. Raymond G. Bald
win slnzs Illustrated songs, and the pro
gramme concludes with the blograph. The
bill will be repeated aunng tnc wcck,
The Bijou
The new bill at the Bijou contains many
attractive specialties, and the business
done last evening was very large. There
are numerous strong features in the pro
gramme, notably tne comeay sseicn ot
lhn MVirtnns n?h!rh l Intersncrsed with
! numerous catchy songs and duets, and the
acrobatic feats by the Lamont brothers.
Much of their work is new, and all of It

cles about In a way to excite wonder and
also oerform feats of balancing. Ed
Simpson sings well and tells some laugh

trated songs. The vltascope pictures are
new and dazzling. Same programme all

Judge Sears, before whom the two
women were tried, has no jurisdiction
over the machines, as the women said
they did not own them, and the ma
chines were only brought Into court by
the Sheriff as evidence.
There is no provision of the statutes
providing for the confiscation of the
slot machines, but-thcy could be taken
under the city charter.
"They are for law breaking only,'
says Judge McGinn, -"and the state may
confiscate them. The common law Is

CLUB ELECTS OFFICERS.
Portland Rowers Start New Work
With Enthusiasm.
At the called meeting of the Portland
Rowing Club, held in the rooms of the Y.
M. C A., last night, a large proportion of
the membership attended and voted in
favor of the reorganization of the club as
previously outlined.
As the new organization will be mod
eled closely after that of the Multnomah
Amateur Athletic Club, and as the latter
has proven so successful, the rowing men
feel elated over their new prospects.
After voting on the disorganization of
the old club and forming Its successor,
under the title. "The Portland Rowing
Club," the members elected the following
board of directors: "W. F. Morton, R. C.
Hart, R. TV. "Wilbur, J. M. Ambrose. P.
E. Stowell, George H. Houghton. Tom
"West.
After an Interesting discussion as to the
advisability of securing the services of a
professional coach for the coming season.
It was decided that such action would In
all ways greatly benefit the club, and It
is probable that negotiations will soon be
opened .with some of the Eastern talent.
After adjournment of the members'
meeting, the newly appointed directors
met for the purpose of electing officers.
The unanimous selection of the board re
sulted as follows: R. "W. "Wilbur, presi
dent; P. E. Stowell, vice-president; W. F.
Morton, secretary; J. M. Ambrose, treas
urer; R. C. Hart. Captain.
HEW PLAN FOE CREMATORY
Mayor Williams Presents Scheme for
Garbage Handling.
A plan for new management of- the-
city crematory was presented to the
Executive Board by Mayor Williams
yesterday. Howard Whiting, who sev
eral years ago was manager of the
crematory, but has lately confined most
of his attention to wood block pave
ments, offers to inaugurate a com
plete new system of garbage handling.
No new crematory will be needed.
not even a new furnace. According to
Mr. Whiting's written proposal to the
Mayor, he will begin the burning of
garbage at night, instead of during
the early morning, as at present. The
unsavory dump will be covered with
fresh earth. Only six men will be cm
ployed. But Mr. Whiting would like a
salary of 53000 a year.
A cut of nearly 56000 from the pres
ent estimate of 519.680 of the Board
of Health would be made, however.
Mr. Whiting stated that the garbage
was at present being crammed into
the furnaces so that the fires were
extinguished, and the crematory there
fore gave very poor results. As the
matter Is somewhat outside the Juris
diction of the Executive Board, it will
be laid beforethe Board of Health at
the next regular meeting, or at a spe
cial meeting this month.

PHYSICIANS EVERYWHERE
Know tbe Value of Pyramid File Cure.
"Gratitude alone prompts me to testify
to the efficacy of Pyramid Pile Cure. Last
March I bought a dollar package at the
drugstore, which cured me of bleeding
piles, and I was a suffercrfrom theiu for
eight years; but I had not been trouoied
with them since, until last September,
when I gave birth to a baby- girl, and af
ter that I had a very severe case of pro
truding piles, which a trained nurse said
was the worst case she ever saw. and my
doctod told me to get Pyramid Pile Cure
acaln. which I did and was completely
cured in three days. I have not had piles
of any kind since, and it Is all owing
to this wonderful remedy. My nurse took
a box, which I was glad to be able to
give' her. for I know she will be able to
help lots of suffering people whom I could
never sec or know.
"I recommend 'Pyramids' wherever
know ot any one suffering as I did.
givesvme 'great pleasure to be able to say
I am entirely cured, which my doctor say
Is true. I say. God bless Pyramid Pile
Cure." From a former great sufferer,
