COURT
Policeman Told Not to Be Too
Finical.
THREE MINUTES INVOLVED
A. Ii. GHStafson Arrests A. M. Law
rence for Keeping His Saloon
Open a Few Moments After
the Closing Hour.
Policemen should keep in muni thcsplrlt 1
of the law, as well as the letter of it. ac-
cordlmr to a decision rendered In the Mu- I
nicipal Court yesterday by, Judge Cam-
rmn in the case of James Lawrence, lis
charged with keeping his saloon on the I
"Kant Klde onon after 1 A. Lawrence
was arrested by Policeman A. uusiai-
pon at 3 :03 A. M.
Technically, the law had been broken, lor
iha dlsnenscr of liauor had been seen dj
tho officer to pass a glass across me oar
iit as the second-hand on his watch had I
completed its third revolution following
tho fatal stroke of 1. If he had been I
possessed of a stop-watch, he might have j
got the time down a utile nner. out jl w i
to ret rloser than a second to the
right time through the medium or an orai
nary timepiece. Therefore, it may never
be known the exact lengui oi ume Law
rence infringed upon the saloon-closing
ordinance. Gustafson brought out these
various details when placed on the stand.
He added that he had long suspected tne
defendant of violations of the law, and so
lav In wait for him,
Then the unexpected happened. Assist
ant Citv Attorney Fitzgerald said the offl
ccr should have warnod his victim lnsicaa
of spying upon him; that tho ordinance in
question was not so exacting as to operate
on three-minute offenders, it naa oeen
enacted to prevent unseemly carousals and
orgies late Into the night, and not as a
bugaboo to Induce saloonkeepers to- pur
chase stop-watches In order not to over
run their time. Of course, the law must
be enforced, but those affected by It should
be allowed reasonable latitude, riiteen
minutes, or even ten minutes, might con-
fitittita an offense, but three minutes that
was drawing the line a little too fine. The
sole duty of the policeman was to nouiy
the man to close immediately.
Thp- rmirt likewise tore a small hole In
iUo fetid, nauseating atmosphere of the 1
unventilated, unsanitary courtroom, and
filled it up with wholesome advice to the
embryonic Sherlock Holmes. The court

The
defendant was dismissed

of some 30 or more years, was arraigned
on a charge of being a chronic flirt. The

Seventy-flve a month and a big policeman
was a prize worth going after, but she
was doomed to a hard piece of luck. Pa
trolman Seaman, her intended -victim, re
garded her advances in the ungallant light
of an annoyance and took her down to the
station. Miss Goldman was cautioned by
the court to be more demure in the future.

Pacific train as it passed up Fourth street.
There was some thought of changing the
charge to one of maintaining an existence
on earth, but tho prisoner anticipated this
change by pleading guilty to the first
charge. It cost him Sj.
Robert Watson and James Cunningham.
a brace of old rounders, who need only a
change of garb from rags to broadcloth
to make them look like, distinguished trust
magnates, were accused of having Chi
nese lottery tickets in their pockets. They
explained that they picked the luckless
pasteboard squares from the sidewalk of
Chinatown. They were sent back to the
dungeon to await sentence, which will be
decided upon today. At this writing, it
appears they made a most, unlucky find.
but then the tickets may win enough be
fore tomorrow lo pay all costs.
A delegation of seven from the East Side
Hoodlums' Association was on hand to an
swer to a charge of constituting a general
nuisance. According to the evidence ad
duced, the association contains 33 mem
bers, made up of youths ranging from 12
to 17 years. The purposes of the organiza
tion seem to be to afford recruits for the
arious branches of the criminal profes
sion. Patrolman Murphy. who rounded
them up, said the gang was addicted to
indulgence in cigarettes, beer, epithets and
late hours. A lecture was given them by
the court, after which a sentence of 20
days apiece was meted out, with the un
derstanding that they shall serve the sen-
tence if they are found wandering from
the straight and narrow path.
MATERIAL FOR THE FILLS
SIX HUNDRED THOUSAND YARDS
ARE AVAILABLE.
It Will Kcqulrc Bight Hundred nd
Thirty Thousand Cubic
Yards in All.
At the mce.tinj; of the East Side Im
provemcnt Association, last cvcnlnp.
Georce C. Flanders, of the committee on
Alls, reported that Engineer J. B. Lock'
wood had completed his report on the
i mount and character of tho material
available for fills in the bottom of the
river, between the iladison and Burnslde
nrmges. -Mr. jr ianucrs saia tne engineer s
report was completed, and was full as to
details. It would show that there were
eroow cuo.c yaroa 101. icnai . ioose
while llic fills w6uld take 830,000 cubic
yards.
Another significant part of this report
was that, in the judgment of the engineer,
the work could be done at a comparatively
low figure to the property -owners, much '
lower than it has cost to make fills here
tofore. As soon as this report goes to the
Port of Portland a proposition will soon
be made to the property-owners. The re
port caliod out hearty applause from all
present, as it indicated that substantial
progress was being mado toward getting
the low grounds filled IS feet above low
water mark.
W. I..1 Boise reported that the water
commlttes bad not yet received the esti
mates of Engineer Clark as to the cost of
the secoad Bull Bun pipe line, but this
was soon expected. It ttsuM then be
known what further action to take.
Lw S. TV o4 ward. V. C Dwmlag ad A.
D. Keener, were appointed to ascertain It
the city "would not establish a branch city
stable Sor Its stock on the East Slde.-
lt was announced that the annual school
meeting will take place at the High School
house, on the evening of December . ana
all who can do so were urged to- attend
the meeting.
S. L- Brown acaln called attention to
the dangerous condition of Union avenue
north from East Oak to Burnslde, and
said that the city should take action to
make It reasonably safe Mr. Brown also
insisted that the association should advo
cate that when once a street was improved
the property-owner should be exempt from
further cost except to pay taxes. Jie saia
that the whole city should then keep up
the strcetK.
In the matter of the appropriation for
additional lire protection, olectric lights
and police station, it was announced that
the appropriations were not likely to- bo
cat down, and even might be increased
above the Chiefs estimates. The associa
tion adjourned to meet the first Tuesday
in January-
Need of Auditorium.
-PORTLAND, Dec 17. (To tho KHter.)-ln
conversation with one of the speaker at tho
reception to Archbishop Cbxlrtie. we both
lamented the absence of a great auditorium
in .Portland. We a erred that a large ttruct-
tire, capable of sealing lo.voo jHc or more.

,omethlnff that lias been done cleewbere fr
the Rood of the peojilf an a whole Is such an
idea, wc plrad guilty to a sincere Retire for the
common weal, and take our chancto in Judg
ment. Should the President .of this great
country como hero, there l no waee .for
his reception or that of aar other great as-
semblage to be held. so tliat the largest number
can bo comfortably twated and tee and hear
ns they ought to. It is far better to abandon

spend the money to em a large auditorium
nark block. It should liave a octmme-
dlouti stage. 1k suitably lighted and ventilated.
and built with the very best acoustics.- It
need only be rough-finished, like the one on
the Fair grounds. A reasonable charge to
cover bare expense and maintenance would
then enable the masses to enjoy things they
are -now deprived of. The people onld de
rive far more benefit frm this use of public
moneyB than with the Forestry building. It
Is their right and Inheritance, IT anything
In thla Republic ever was.

AVI11 Sell Oddfellows' Farm.
vjuEONE, Or.. Dec 18.-Special.)-The
EO-acre farm belonging to the Oregon Odd
fellows adjoining Cleono will be cut up
into five and ten-acre tracts and placed
on the market. Surveyors will begin dl
vldlng it tills week. For more than 20
years the place has been rented out, al
though it was originally Intended for
home. Two tlno buildings are located on
the tract near the railroad, and about 40
acres nave oeen in cultivation, i ne re-
mainaer is orusn ianu. out an oi it is oi
excellent quality. The original Idea of an
Oddfellows Home was found to be im
practicable, and the plan was abandoned
here, but another home was established
in Portland a few years ago, since which
time the Oddfellows have been endeavor
lng to dispose of the property at some
thing near its original cost.
