Athey pre sided. The programme opened with a se ctlon by the local orchestra, which was "llowcd by a duot by Mrs. D. B. Morgan na .Mrs. uoovert. Mr. Holman jrave -leasing talk, full of suggestions about ' e cultivation or roses thoroughly prae 'Icable and easily understood bv the vice. He began his flue talk bv marking that there was a great -movement rose culture, especially In Portland and that it meant much for the home and surroundings, as it came from a lov for the beautiful. While the lov for the beautiful In art had come down from the Greeks the world had Increased It. Tt meant a great deal for the child in the home to have attractive surroundings Mr. Holman said he had come to giv a practical talk about roses. He had gained some Information by reading, talk ing .with others and observation. The rose was- tha cjueea of flowers, ar.i It had grown upon the people for the last 50 ears very Taoldly. Mr. Hotmail tnea touched upon the soil, sarin rr that litre in Portland the heavy clay soil was special ly fitted for the successful cultivation or roses. He said that the successful culti vation of roses was not due to luck, hut to careful cultivation, the proper fertili zation of the soil and the attention given the bushes. He said that In the matter of pruning his article published In The Sunday Oregonlan covered tnat poi thoroughly, but now was tne ume to prune- Mr. Holman went into tne ae- stxuctlon of pests to some length, closing his lecture by tlvtas' his experieiwe in rose culture, paying a high tribute to the Madame Testout rose, and commencing the community that was Interested In rose culture, as it meant that the people culti vated a love for the beautiful. DECEIVES THE GENEROUS. Newsboy Makes Practice of Working on Their Sympathies. PORTLAND. March 1. (To the Editor.)-! As superintendent of the Boys' aad Girls' Aid Society, my attention has been called to a system dally practiced by the news boys of this city In obtaining money from sympathetic persons under false pretenses. On Saturday last a prominent lady of this city and also a member -of the advisory hoard of this Institution, was attracted by the weeping of a small boy ased about nine ears on OHsan street, and on the laay in quiring the cause 0f his grief the little Xellow informed her that he had lost 59 cents and dare net jto home without It, for fear that he would receive punishment and that the loss would creatly injure his mother. The lady Inquired his name ana he Informed her that It was Raymond Byrne and his residence was In AlblBa. She took him to her residence, where she mace good to him his Iocs. On leaving her house the lady's son watched the little fellow and saw blm throw a-vay his papers and not far away he entered a candy store and Invested a portion of the CO cents in can (I-. The same boy a short time ago accosted Mra Wilson, the assistant secretary r the City Board of Charities, and la this in stance, not knowing her. he wanted to ob tain the sum of -5 cents. He related a story that his mother bad nothing in the house to eat, and this lady, Knowing tne boy, said she would accompany blm to his home, but after going about two blocks the little fellow cave her the slip as fast as his lees would carry him and soon dis appeared from view. This family Is well Known to the nay aad Girls' Aid Society, as oa January 1". 1000. the children were surrendered by tneir mother, having been turned out of their house, and It was alleged that the father failed to support the tamiiy ine case came up In court, and it was finally settled that the mother should place the children In the St. Mary's Home at Beaverton. which was done, but they were soon again taken from that Institution, and many complaints have been received respecting them of late. it would be well for people to be on tneir guard respecting this kind of fraud, as It Is simply oaoouraging tho boys to be dis honest, but the little fellows could not out impress one with their shrewdness In nam lnc the amount of their deficiency, as in seme cases they deem 25 cents enough and In others 50 cents. And one boy has been heard to say to another: "I made 50 cents that time; you can always toll them 50 centers. They are the ones that have them long coats en lined with satin." Whether the victim above mentioned was taKen for a "SO center" through having her coat lined with satin is a matter or conjecture, but that she was easy to the amount of 50 cents is plainly demonstrated, and the writer hopes that this explanation will save others from being vietimizea.

America and Japan met in a bitter contest Wednesday evening in ironc of The Oregonlan building, but they were separated before either was able to prove victorious. It all came about through a llttld Japanese boy of about 6 years of age being allowed to stray away from his mother's side In his prowlings he ran into a bunch of news boys on Sixth street. They made sev eral remarks to him, all or wnicn no passed unheeded, until one little boy of about his size, yelled out that Rus sia was whipping Japan. The Jap did not know very much about the English language but when he heard the word Russia he knew something was wrong and he started to fight. He made a rush at his small Ameri can opponent, but the latter was too quick, mado a fancy sidestep and dealt the little Jap a stinging blow on nis left ye. The Jap undaunted prepared for another rush. They were in the act of mixing when bystander stepped In and separated the puny fighters. The Jap Immediately commenced to pour forth a long string of American and Japanese oaths Inter mingled. He dwelt particularly on tho word "arrest." Ho thought it meant tight. A large crowd of spectators gath ered to watch the two small boys en gage In a wordy battle. Ono of the newsboys, who had been watching anxiously up the street, spied a police man. "The bull Is coming," he yelled. The, Jap seemed to understand as well as his opponent, and he ducked around the corner followed by the American boy, both intent'on making their escape. GEEAT BARITONE IS COMING David Bispham's Programme Will Be Unusually Attractive and Varied. Song recital programmes are too often alike, not so much In the choice of songs or of composers, but in the speolal line the artists want to interpret. Tew ac tresses or actors are really content until the one has essayed Jullot and tho other Romeo or Hamlet. The man or woman with the God-given grace of song natur ally wants to interpret tho best music of the best composer, and the result is certain similarity. This Is where David Bispham is so pre eminently the finished and moat versatile artist there Is on the concert stage today. His programmes axe chosen from all the best, and ho sings songs of all nations- Scotch. Irish, English, Gorman, French, etc Anothorttractivo thing about his recital Is that the words of all the num hers will be printed on the programmes. Sale of seats takes place Tuesday. March 7.

The Council al lowed the Mayor to pay the new offi cial 200 a month, but Mr. 'Whiting's salary Is to be $150 a month, the amount originally desired by the Councllmen.

Mr. Whiting came to Portland when the first wood block pavement was be ing laid. No one here was familiar with the blocks, and Mr. Whiting saw his opportunity. The Fourth-street pavement was laid by his directions, and, work ing for the Carbollnlum Wood-Preserv-lng Company, he has become prominent In contracting work.

It was followed by a series of smaller re ports, as the heavily-charged wires burned and sputtered, endangering man buildings for three blocks. A telephone message to the office of the Portland Gen eral Electric Company called out emer gency men. who soon cut off the deadly current and repaired the wires. At tho first explosion, when Mrs. Gold berg fainted, her husband did not know what had happened. He telephoned Police Headquarters.

LOOKING THIS WAY. Easterners Growing More Interested In Oregon. I have always believed In Oregon,' said 1a. Samuel, of the Equitable Ufa insur ance Company, who returned from a trip to New York yesterday morning, Mbut I never fully realized what a hold this stato has taken upon ma until I passed through the zero weather which I encountered in many different sections of the East- I left Portland the latter -part of January, in the most delightful kind of. jveather. almost like Spring, A few days later, however, I found myself in Omaha, with the thermometer 42 degrees below zero. I ran Into zero weather In a number of places. In New Tork It was bo cold that X hesitated about looking at the theimom- eter. 'As soon as the people I met In the East learned I was from Portland, I was flooded with questions concerning tho Lewis and Clark Exposition. They also wanted to know about tho Oregon climate. of which they had heard so much lately. I did not want to give them the wrong im pression." continued Mr. Samuel, so I did not pretend that the Lewis "and Clark Exposition was as large as somo of tne fairs that havo been held. I told them. however, that the world had never pro duced anything so artistic. I told them tlie wealth of New lork was not capable of producing as artistic an exposition as tho Lewis and Clark Fair, as Nature, had furnished a surrounding frame of unsur passed grandeur, and that we were slm ply putting a few finishing touches to it. This greatly Impressed them. "I know of several large parties of New Yorkers who are coming to Portland this Summer with the Intention of spending several months here. It seemed that nearly every ono with whom I talked was coming to the Exposition. They arc not only coming single and In couples, but aro coming In bunches. Auson Maher, a wealthy Phlladelphlan, told mo last week he would head a party of 19 families which will visit Portland and the Exposition In July. Theso families have been intending to come to Portland for several years, but have been waiting for tho Lewis and Clark Exposition, I would not be sur prised if numbers of the Eastern visitors will like this community so well that they will decide to spend their Winters here. "We are going to havo an enormous at tendance of visitors at the Fair this year," went on Mr. Samuel, "and It be hooves us to see they aro properly treated and entertained, and that the success of the Exposition Is In no way interfered with. I want to call attention once mora about the importance of drastio steps being taken by the citizens of this state to prevent forest Hres. Think of the hori zon being obscured by smoke, shutting off from view the wonderful beauty of the mountain scenery surrounding Portland. Premises on Dress Parade. "The spasmodic and almost hysterical efforts of some of our citizens to take wash because company is coming this Summer Is highly amusing to me," con tlnued Mr. Samuel. "As to myself, : have never as yet cleaned for an expect ed visit from friends. My premises are now and always havo been on dress pa rade, and I have often been told that my good example on civic improvement has had Its good Influence not only In my Immediate neighborhood but all over the city." "I firmly believe the dog question Is one of the most Important questions we have to deal with in this city. Valuable dogs of course are kept off the streets except wnen following their owners. It 13 only the useless and worthless cur that roams the streets unattended. Our City Coun cil should furnish us the proper remedy zor tne anoiisnment or tnis nuisance. "I have a plan which I believe would re suit in the decided Improvement of the general appearance of this city. I would suggest that a sum of JSOOO be raised to be distributed as prizes for tho best-ap pearing nusiness ana residence blocks. lawns ana vacant lots. I would also In elude prizes for the neatest-appearing mo- tormen ana conductors on the street-cars. I am willing to contribute $50 for a start' er. I think It would also be a good plan to appoint a committee of citizens, from two to live aeiegatcs rrora each precinct. to confer and meet with the committee appointed by President Wheelwright, of tne unamoer of commerce. Let these del egates bo men or women. Irrespective of occupation or station, just as long as they are tnose wno xokq priae In Pprtland's appearance. "Then let the City Engineer and KrrAt.

The Pleasant rivalry started by the nrlze offer. lngs. together with the vlgilanco of th general committee, would give us an ab solutely clean city. It would be a credit to all citizens and be In general harmony with the wonderful natural advantages which Portland is already enJoyinsr to an extent unequalled by any other city in cuq umiea o taxes.
