Contracts for the repair of the Burn-s!de--street bridge were let yesterday afternoon, the contracts going- to three firms. The rnmblnod tmnnntn sate $11,539.99, considerably below"tho estimate OI ilz.bUU. The bids -were opened Wednesday. Three contractors bid upon the entire work. Their bids were: Paquet & Gle bish, $12,120.25; J. B. THlotson, $12, 547.74; J. R. O'Neill. $14.75L35. The Diamond Sand Company bid upon the retaining- walls only, its bid belngr $745, and K. G. Lundstrora bid $9S0 for the same piece of work. The awards were: The Diamond Sand Company, to build the retaining walls for $745; Paquet & Gieblsh. the con tracts for the embankment and plank ing, the redecklng- of the oad and the wood block paving-, for $7209.25; J.

It has been decided to place the car tracks on the approaches in the center Instead of at the sides, near the walks, and this trill cause the entire surface to be paved with wood blocks, making an added expense, but keeping" the cost of the repairs still within the. estimate of $12,500. The grade dn the East Side approach will be reduced 30 per cent, while, the grade on the West Side will be reduced at least 10 per cent With the amount oi the contracts under the amount estimated, it is deemed certain that there will be no "extras and that even the extra cost of placing- the wood block paving on the entire surface will RUBBER BELTING, PACKING HOSE Our Brands Are the Best.

WATER CUEE FAILS FOR ONCE Prisoners Try It on Noisy One to No Effect. Occasionally a prisoner at the police station gets very noisy, much to the an noyance of his comrades. The police do not pay any attention to th'em after they havo been locked In tho cages aftor night, so tho peaceful and rost-deslring prisoners sometimes have to take action. A noisy prisoner is not given attention in the daytime, but at night it is a different matter. One night last week a man was arrested who kept tho prisoners awake nearly all night, notwithstanding the fact that he was treated to the water cure, tho only expedient known to the prisoners. This prisoner had been arrested for drunken ness and was in a bad mood. x He thought he was being mtstreated and tried to make things disagreeable. Ho rattled the door of his cage with such forco thaU'lt seemed as though ho would tear the build ing down. Three times tho prisoners, who were, very sleepy, it being about midnight, re quested the disturber to desist. It was to no avail. There was a hose on the floor which was secured by the inmate of the cage next door to the disturber. Once more he was asked to keep qulot. Then the hose was turned on at full stream. But tho. drunk was game. For fully half an hour ho rattled the bars and yelled at the top of his voice, in splto of the stream of water which drenched him to tho skin. He did not stop until he became thor oughly exhausted. Usually a noisy pris oner will quit as soon as the water is turned on. W0EKS FOE LETTER-CARRIERS Chamber of Commerce Seeks to Se cure Convention for Portland. The Portland Chamber of Commerce is interested in tho trouble between tho Na tional Letter-Carriers Association and the railroads, and has taken the matter up with the object of having some agree ment reached botween the railroad people and the carriers. More than a year ao the Chamber of Commerce sent a delegation to the Na tional Convention held at Syracuse and opened headquarters there with the ob ject of securing the 1903 convention for Portland. In this it was successful, but now its efforts arc about to be annulled by the action of the Eastern trunk lines In not granting low enough rates for the trip to Portland and return. The associa tion is now looking about for another place to hold the convention. . The Chamber of Commerce has been appealed to by the letter-carriers, and the matter has been taken up with the railroads. Influence that is powerful will be brought to bear upon Harriman of the Harrlman system, Hill of the Great Northern and Elliott of the Northern Pa cific, asking that they see-to it that such rates are made east of Chicago that tho convention can afford to meet In Port land, as was intended. It la thought and hoped that the efforts of the transporta tion company which has charge of the work will be successful and that lower rates will be granted by the roads.

Sweeney was drunk, the policeman said, and had to be sent to the City Jail. It was necessary to. use some force to- bring him, he said. The prisoner was before Judge H guc, and was sent to prison for ten days. The testimony of tho accusing witnesses and the accused will be laid before the police committeemen for consideration. QUARTERS IN STATE BUILDING New York Society Will Not Join Other Organizations. The members of the New York Society held a rally last night at the headquarters In the City Hall. The room was filled with those who bad formerly made the Empire State their home but who had deserted It to become citizens of Oregon and who were now banding themselves together to place the advantages of this their adopt ed home before the friends of other days, who are expected to pay Portlands, visit during the Lewis and Clark Fair. The New York v Society, however, will not join with the other state organiza tions in maintaining a permanent head quarters at the Chamber of Commerce Hall. R. C. Wright, who had been sent as a delegate to attend the meet ing of the presidents of the state socie ties in their discussion of the subject of a joint headquarters, made his report. The matter was discussed by the mem bers present, and upon tho presentation of R- G. Morcy. the contractor for the Now York State building now being erect ed at the Exposition grounds, it was de cided to be best for tho New York Society to roako its headquarters if possible at the state building. This plan was deemed best by the society, and Mr. Wright was Instructed to so report to the joint meet ing of the presidents. Our Dusty Roads. PORTLAND. March 2. (To th Edltor.)

The climate of Oregon cannot be surpasaea anywhere, talcing both health and comfort into consideration; yet the people coming here get entb-ely dlrgusted with our muddy roses in AVlnler. and In Summer, when the country Is srrayed In Its verdant beauty and the scenery is lovely, the clouds of dilat from our roaia ere simply distressing.
