Fail, to Agree. The St. Johns Council
and Smith Bros., who purchased the
Rankin water-front property in St. Johns,
embracing the electric sawmill frontage,
have failed to agree on the vacation of
Charleston street. The company had
erected . a three-story building prepara
tory to installing marine boiler works,
when It discovered that it needed Charles
ton street, which extends through its
land. The street Charleston Intersects
3ms been vacated, which leaves no access
by the public to Charleston street. Re
cently the Council made the discovery
that the public dock at the foot of Rich
mond street occupied nine feet of the
Rankin property. It was .proposed to the
new owpers that they give the city this
nine-foot strip, occupied by the dock. In
exchange for the GO-foot street the com
pany asks for, but the representative of
Smith Bros, declined to entertain this
proposition. The Councllmen say that the
GO-foot street is worth much more than
the nine-foot strip on which -the public
dock projects, and that they will not
vacate unless this exchange is made.
Will. Bb Expedited. It is expected
that action on the Brooklyn sewer will
now be expedited. Many of the property
owners through whose lots the sewer will
run got the impression that deeds for
rights of way meant actual deeds for so
.much of their land, to which they ob
jected. City Attorney McNary will set
their minds at rest as far as that is con
cerned. He will explain to them just
what the deeds mean. They simply call
for the privilege of laying the conduit
through the lots, and also to go on the
land and make repairs whenever this may
be necessary . bu( otherwise the deeds do
not confer "any title. It is now thought
that the matter can be arranged without
condemnation proceedings.

neral of A. R. Corliss, member of Com
pany Xo. S. of the Fire Department.- took

Waiter Lynch, a 13-year-old boy. of 263

East Eighth and Taylor streets at 6:15
o'clock last night by a roughly drosscd
thug. Although badly frightened Lynch
replied to the highwayman's domand for

The highwayman accosted the boy and
leveled a revolver at his head. He did
not take the trouble to search his poekots.
evidently being surprised that he had
7iuul the mistake of holding up one so
young. Lynch is large for his age and
has the appearance of being' more than
1G. Lynch told his parents of the hold-up
and the police were notified.
The police refuse to believe the boy's
story, and no investigation, according to
the orders of Chief Gritzmachor. will be
made- So many hold-ups have taken
place during the last month that roports
of crime telephoned to the station axe

made.
That highwaymen are infesting the city
no one at police headquarters will deny.
But that the department Is not able to
cope with the situation wyi not be ad

that have occurred since Fall only one
case has been disposed of. that of the
Centennial Hotel robbery and murder
case.
BENJAMIN F. HAYDEN DEAD
Carbolic Acid Bottle Lends to The
ory of -Suicide.
With indications pointing strongly to a
theory of suicide. Benjamin F. Hayden
died suddenly yesterday morning, at the
Fashion Livery Stable, of which he was
one of the proprietors. His death occurred
when no one was with him. but a par
tially emptied bottle of carbolic acid,
found in one of his pockets, told the story
of the deed.
Mr. Hayden was well known about
town, having been a resident of Portland
for mGny years. He came here from New
York, and was manager for the firm of
Haywood Bros. & Co.. before he entered
the livery business. Of recent years he
had been drinking excessively, ami to
this fact is attributed his desire to end
his life. He was CS years of age. and. so
far as is known, had no relatives living.
Yesterday morning he went to his place
of business early, and those who were
with him noticed nothing peculiar in his
actions. About 3 o'clock he went into a
room at the rear of his office, and shortly
afterwards was heard groaning, as If in
pain. The employes of the place imme
diately went to his assistance, and found
him lying on the flood dying.
Coroner Finley was summoned, but no
official examination Into thb cause of his
death was. made, as his physician. Dr.
A. H. Riiedy. could not be found. There
Is little doubt, however, that when an ex
amination is made today the suicide tho
ory will be accepted, as every Indication
points lo carbolic acid poisoning. The
bottle of acid found In his clothes he pur
chased Saturday, saying that he -wanted
it for the treatment of a sick horse.

About half of the musical show C'Wat
son's Burlesquers") at the- Baker Theater
opening yesterday was distinctly better
than any other of these combinations of
music and fun that have come to this-down-town
playhouse this year. It was
so much better. In fact, that at first it
seemed a fit occasion for tiring skyrockets
of praise and Jubilation. I felt like hol
lering to everyone in town, and, on my
word, advising them to sec this week's
burlesque or miss something well worth
while.
You could not blame me for feeling that
way.
In the first place there war a larger
and better-looking' chorus that worked
splendidly. There were some good songs,
songs good enough lo charm a musician.
There was a pair of girl Jiggers who were
cleverer than hard-shoe men doggers;
there was a quadrille In extravaganza
costume that was as good as any French
ball one ever attended; there were two
Japanese acrobats' who transported one
to the streets of Toklo. none could be
better than they; there was a reason
able plot in the first skit: the women
were Indeed lovely: the maid who Fang.
"Isn't It Magnificent to Be Upon the
Stage?" showed a voice that was as sweet
as silver bells.
The Japane.c pair were suporb In their
balancing .act. They could balance any
thingthe books of the Equitable Life
and my score with the recording angel.
And" they arc on a par with the star
knockabouts. There Is a gathering of liv
ing sculptures that must be seen to be
appreciated: smiling buds and full-blown
roses in exquisite dresses catch the eye's
fancy. Barring a few gloomy patches of
rough-house, genuine frolic lifts you Into
an enjoyable frame of mind. The costli
ness and profusion of the high-class per
formers should have made it the climax
of the season.
It Is. with the exception of that last
irremediable splash of coarseness. Even
that could, through pruning, be made a
less appropriate subject for the scrutiny
of the police. The hope Is that Miss
Jeanettc Monitor's Ithe "Venus") ex
quisite beauty will of its own superiority
lift the trouble she makes above the un
fortunately discolored dialogue in which
her enticing personality is submerged.

B. LEE PAGET AVOULD GIVE BAL
LOT TO WOMAX.
AVeekly Meetings of Oregon Associa
tion Weil Attended and Much
Intercut Manifested.
The weekly meeting of the Oregon Suf
frage Association held Friday afternoon
was. well attended and much business of
importance transacted. The association
now has speakers In every thickly popu
lated county of the utatc and the cam
paign Is on in good earnest. After the
close of the National convention in Bal
timore. Rev. Anna Shaw will come to
Oregon and speak In all the prominent
cities and towns.
The number of new members which
come in each week is 7 considered as sig
nificants of deep interest In the Issue by
the workers at headquarter? and through
out the state, and yesterday another long
list was added to the membership. A
letter was read from Miss Anthony, who
donated $100 to the Oregon campaign
from her personal funds. It was an
nounced by correspondence from National
headquarters that special arrangements
were being jmade for the entertainment
of the Oregon committee at the Balti
more convention, which convenes Febru
ary 7.
B. 7ec Paget has come out with a pub
lic indorsement of the suffrage move
ment and makes the following statement:
"1 am glad the women of Oregon have
decided not to longer waive their right
of Suffrage and allow it to remain dor
mant. "Thoir present promising campaign had
reached the stage, whore It is conceded
with .practical unanimity that such an
Intrinsic right exists.
"Such opposition as is encountered Is
founded upon other objections.
"Woman's strongest appeal for the ex
orcise of the ballot may be based upon
the question of her duty to enter politics
and make her Influence felt In the ad
vancement of the necessary reform ? In
which our best citizenship Is interested.
"It should be remembered now that
aftor the victory has been won the -results
of the first election in which women
will participate, will raise our political
standards. Just in proportion to the lofti
ncps of the Ideals maltalned throughout
this campaign!
"The largest contributing factor to pre
sent unsatisfactory political conditions Is
that so many men have a false and un
patriotic conception that they arc too
good to participate in politics, and whilst
their selfish neglect of public responsibil
ity places them in a humiliating poIUon,
the woman who falls to appreciate that it
Is her duty to take a hand is liable lo

Oh. Shades of Dr. Houghton, forgive
them, for they know not what they
do.
They are taking- a play around the
country, and they produced it at the
Empire Theater last night, and they
will continue it all this week, that is
named for the famous church that
holds the strongest affections of the
actors that little edifice on Twenty
ninth street. Juat off Fifth avenue In
New York, where no distinction Is made
in caste or estate where all are wel
comed and where every runaway cou
ple within a hundred miles gets
hitched.
The play has no more to do with the
church's character or history than I
have, but it is a name that attracts the
attention of the public, and that is
why It is used. This is the meretricious
point that mars the theatrical offer
ing in question, and that Is all that
can be said against lU Everything else
about the occasion is gcjiuine and val
uable. II is an excellent show for the
price demanded, and It will meet with
a generous response from the public
Last evening they, did not rush to
the Empire as If Mrs, Astor had in
vited them to a reception, but there
were as many there as could crowd in
and not '.-.nng on the chandeliers. It
was a rousing assemblage alternately
cheering- and weeping one that Insti
gates you to mellowness and acts on
the system as a good cry clears up
the mentality of a sentimental woman.
It Is undoubtedly beneficial once In
a while to get good and successfully
drunk drunk on melodrama, if you
object to alcohol. "While it lasts It re
lleve one of all responsibilities,
whether of a remembered ancestry, so
cial or financial obligations, conscious
ness of one's own beauty or distin
guished attributes, duty to the world
or your fellow man. or what not. And in
the dsnd and constantly softening air
of this valley, even the physicians rec
ommend at least a regular amount of
stimulant as necessary to your health.
So J may counsel with all gooj faith
and earnestness a wide attendance
from this community at the perform
ances of this Intense drama with farce
trimmings that is going on at the Em
pire. There are lines a-plenty that ecno the
tenets heard in childhood. You will
not listen in vain for the appeals to
lony-current conceptions concerning
the nobility of the female sex and the
laborer. A mother and her child are
rent asunder to be restored to each
other's arms by a perfect gentleman or
a bootblack, a. gentleman sure, though
Ills talk is selected Boweryese.
Anyone who can witness that play
as given by this company without a
lump :n his throat, or ah Inclination to
laugh, or a thrill of bubbling emotion,
or an ebullition or enthusiasm for
many admirable exhibitions of acting
ought to slink off Into the oblivion of
Tacoma and be done wlth'hiraseir for
ever. The company is the enterprise of
Charles A. Taylor. The plav was writ
ten by Marion Russell. Tile company
Is familiar to Portland people and it
merits the esteem In which it Is held.
I admire it for It does not pretend to
be more than It it. The comedian. Wil
liam Li. Raymore. and the charact-r
woman. Miss Viofa Keene and Miss
Mayme Moran. dupply the rarcical ex
travagance that relieves the stress.
Miss Virginia Richmond Is a handsome
competent actress In a kindly part this
week. Will N. Webb and Charles R.
Alien, respectively play the hero and
the villain bravely. Harry Babb. the
bootblack. Is capital, and the preco
cious child. Edythe Raynore. Is a won
der, as embarrassment-proof children
who are given the chance usually arc.
ACTION ON POOL -SELLING
District Attorney Manning's Reason
ror Prosecuting Aycrs.
The recent decision of the Supreme
Court In the Nease case to the effect that
the selling of pools on a public thorough
fare constitutes a nuisance. Is the basis
of an action brought by District At
torney Manning against William M.
Ayers. with the Idea of securing a de
cision relative to the selling of pools at
the Multnomah Fair Association race
track. Tfhcn requested for a statement as to
why he had commenced action against
Ayers. District Attorney Manning said:
"I filed an Information against William
M. Ayers for conducting the sale of pools
on a racetrack last Summer for the rea
son that the Supreme Court decided in
the Nease case under the nutsance statute
that the conducting of a place for the
sale of pools on horso races on a busi
ness thoroughfare in this city was a crim
inal offense. Whether this is a lair in
respect to the selling of pools on horse
races out of the business center of th
city is disputed. I thlnk however, that
the act or Mr. Aycrs in conducting and
selling pools at the Multnomah Fair As
sociation racetrack last Summer is within
vhe Nease decision. If I am right. I be
lieve it my duty as District Attornov. to
prosecute all persons at the racetrack
or elsewhere, who violate that law.
"I hare brought this information at this
time In order to ascertain that if pool
selling shall be conducted at the Mult
nomah Fair Association racetrack next
Summer those guilty of so doing will
know definitely what the law is and will
have no excuse for disobeying it."

At the muzzle of a revolver Mrs. Dr.

held up and robbed about 4 o'clock yes
terday morning at East Nineteenth and
Division streets by a lone highwayman,
who took between and 53 from Dr
Manion and cursed the student roundly
because she failed to throw up her hands
promptly. As a result of the fright she
sustained the younger woman Is suffer
ing from hysteria and was confined to
her bed all day yesterday. She was able,
however, to leave Dr. Manlon's residence
at "550 Yamhill street last night in a car
riage for her, home.
Dr. Manion, in company with the stu

urbs last night, and missed the last car
to the city. They were unable to get a
carriage and started to walk to the city.
Near Nineteenth and Division streets
they followed a narrow path, having in
a manner lost their way. While passing
a hedge fence the highwayman leaped

and In almost total darkness. Dr. Minion
was asked to hand over her valuables.
Lowering her arms she started to give
her satchel to the highwayman, who
commanded her to open It and give him
the contents. Dr. Manion gave him a
small purse containing between 31 and S3.
Three or four diamond rings were in
the satchel, which the highwayman did
Jiot search. After robbing Dr. Manion
the highwayman, with a parting oath,
jumped over the fence and disappeared.
Several blocks beyond the place where
the hold-up occurred the women met Po
liceman Parker, to whom they told their
experience. Dr. Manion was not so bad
ly frightened as her friend. The student
had to be assisted to the city by the po
liceman. She was hysterical, constantly
repeated the oaths uttered by the high
wayman, and could not be quieted. She
was taken to Dr. Manlon's residence,
where she was cared for yesterday.
Every effort to suppress the facts re
garding the hold-up was made at po
lice headquarters. Highwaymen have be
come bold in Portland, but this Is the
first time that two women have been
robbed on the streets and threatened with
violent death.
WILDCAT FULLS INTO MINE
FIERCE BATTLE "WITH WORK
MEN PAR UNDERGROUND.
Enraged at Its Mishap, the Beast
Starts Attack, and Is Beaten to.
Death With Drills.
SALT LAKE CITY, Jan. 21. (Spe
cial.) Unarmed men battled to the
death with an infuriated wildcat 323
feet below the surface o the earth In
the- Inkensan mine at Bingham. Utah
yesterday.
The animal had evidently come from,
the surface through the 100-foot level
of the mine. It blundered Into the
shaft at that level and fell 225 feet to
the bottom of the shaft. There It
struck a cross bar and bounded into
the 323-foot level alighting on its feet
In the level. It crouched as if dazed
for a few second? and then sprang
furiously toward the men who were
working there under the direction of
Foreman A. Heaston.
The men had no weapons except their
tools and for a few minutes that sec
tion of the mine was the liveliest spot
In tne district. The cat was full grown
and full or tight.
Frightened and enraged by its mis
hap and by the presence or the men. it
charged about madly, seeking- to use
teeth or claws on the men. There was
no. opportunity for escape, so the men
seized picks and drills and closed on
the furious brute. The tide of the bat
tle moved back and forth for a time
until one or the men landed a lucky
blow with a drill that put' the animal
down In an instant. Other drills fell on
the cat. which was soon beaten to
death and- borne in triumph to the
burface.
