Protect Improved Streets. "There Is
no authority to require the streets be re
stored after having been torn up to lay
mains, sewers or anything else." re
marked Deputy Bod man yesterday. He
said further that for years an effort had
been made to get an ordinance passed re
quiring companies or private Individuals
to deposit money enough to pay for re
storing the streets torn up. but nothing
had ever -been done to get such rfn ordi
nance. He said that no attention was
paid to a notification to restore streets,
and one might give notices till his head
was gray, and get no results, and that
the worst offenders were the plumbers, as
well a the gas company and contractors.
Beside the streets in Brooklyn. Mr. Bod-
man said that East Twelfth street was
recently put In fine condition with
crushed rock from Hawthorne avenue
north to Morrison street, but the work
had been scarcely finished before both
telephone companies ripped up the street
on ootn sides, and now the work showed
for itself. He inrfsts that there Is no
remedy for present conditions until a
deposit Is required, so that when a street
Is not restored there Is money on hand
to pay for havInR the work done. This
is done In Seattle and elsewhere, he says,
and Portland should take the same action
to protect Its Improved streets from de
struction at the hands of those who tear
them up.
Deputt Recorder Resigns. Deputy
Recorder O. E. Learned, of St, Johns,
yesterday resigned and loft the office in
charge of City Attorney S. H. Greene.
The City Attorney went to the City Hall
yesterday morning to draw up the con
tract with Bechlll Bros., who have the
contract for the Philadelphia-strect sewer
system, but. finding the office closed,
asked Chief of Police Trcderson to open
the door so that the work could be done.
Mr. Learned came shortly and demanded
to know who had opened the door and
who had another key. and when in
formed that the Chief had opened the
door so that the City Attorney could
draw up the contract with Bechlll Bros.,
he became ancrv and tendirfl lilc rir.
"nation. City Attorney Greene will attend
to the business in the office until other
arnnRements can be made. Recorder
Hanks is not able to resume his duties.

vice. The talk was full of information
and appreciated by the large attendance
of mothers- present. After this lecture

JEWISH REFORM MOVEMENT
Topic of Interesting Address Dcllv
crcd by Uabbl Wise.
Dr. Stephen S. Wise doctured at the
Tomple Beth Israel last night upon
"The History of the Jewish Reform
Movement." This was the first of a se
ries of addresses that Dr. Wise Is to
deliver unon the Jewish Reformation.
Next Friday night he will speak upon
"Is Judaism a Religion of Authority or
a Religion of the Spirit?" Dr. Wise has
uiKen great painn in the preparation of
this address and it is expectod to be in
tensely interesting-.
Only a man of vast historical knowl
edge could have made the address de
livered by Dr. Wise last night. He
treated his subject In a most compre
hensive manner which showed that he
was perfectly familiar with every
phase of the Jewish history.
He followed the reform movement
of the Jews back for a hundred years
or more, and most of his lecture was
from a historical standnoint. Ho fni.i
of the political changes In Europe
wnicn niTecied me jews, which are
matters of history.
He said that Jews in all nnrts of th
world had been influenced by the great
reiormauon. lie saia that It had been
intimated that the reformers had tried
to use the movement as a clonk i
urate themselves from Judaism but
that nothing was further from tue
facts. Dr. Wise said the motto of n.o
Jewish reform was: "Free yet genuine,
liberal yet loyal."
NO AGREEMENT A6 YET
It Is Thought Probable Thai Belasco
Will Be Leased.
Manager Calvin Helllg and the owners
of the Marquam Grand Theater have as
yet come to no agreement about making
the changes required by the Executive
Board, and it appears very probable that
the playhouse will soon be closed, as
was originally announced In The Ore
gonlan Thursday morning. The lease
upon the Belasco has not yet been closed
by Mr. Hcilig, however, and It is pos
sible that some agreement whereby the
Marquam will remain open will be
reached.
If the theater Is closed, extcnslvr
changes will be made in the building, al
though it is not known what they will
be, or how soon they will take place, as
the owners state that no plans have yet
been formulated.
The property Is too valuable to remain
Idle for any length of time, and If it Is
closed as a theater, it Is reasonable to
expect that a thorough remodeling will
take place as soon as specifications to
turn it into a business building can be
drawn up. If this Is done it is probable
that the entire Marquam property will
be occupied by an eight-story building.

GAS STOKE IS CAUSE
Why Sam Goldstein Accused
Mrs. Seltzer.
HE HAS HER ARRESTED
Mnn Who Dl5gul.cd Himself to Spy
Upon His Brothcr-ln-Law Is
Arrested as a Highwayman
by Policeman.
It was over the sale of a gas stove thStt
Sam (Goldstein and Mrs. Fannie Seltzer
disagreed. He docs business as a second
hand man at 257 Everett street, and she
lives close by. When the stove was cou
pled up w'lth the pipes, there was a leak,
and when the purchaser discovered it. she
flew into a rage, attacked the man who
sold it to her and he had her arrested for
using Improper language toward him.
Part of the case was heard in the Mu
nlrlpal Court yesterday morning and it
will be completed Monday.
After he had had Mrs. Seltzer arrested.
Goldstein grew sorry, and Informed her?he
need not appear In the court to defend
herself; he'd fix It up, he said. But he
"fell down," for after Judge Cameron de
clared her bail of $20 forfeited Thursday
morning. Goldstein told her to go to Clerk
Hennessey and get the money. When she
applied, she learned that things had gone
wrong, so the case was recalled.
"That woman has pestered me nearly
to death," said Goldstein, when he
mounted the witness stand. "She came
into my store and I ordered her out, tell
ing her I did not want to get mixed up
with any women. She stuck around, how
ever, and made me sell her a gas stove.
Then she came back and said there was
a leak In It. and I offered her the JLCO
back that she paid for it. Just to get rid
of her. She was mad and to get even
with me. threw the stove through my
front window. She called me all kinds of
bad names, too."
Mrs. Seltzer denied the accusations when
she took the stand, saying that the had
been in America too long to use vile
language She declared that Goldstein de
liberately buncoed her on the stove sale,
she believing that he knew there was
a leak In the stove when he sold It to
her.
"Are you certain the leak was In the
stove?" asked Deputy City Attorney Fitz
gerald.
"Certain," said she,
''May be It was In the pipes." remarked
Mr. Fitzgerald. "You know sometimes
the gas company has leaky pipes."
Mrs. Seltzer still held to her original
theory, however, and the case will be re
sumed Monday morning, when additional
evidence will be offered.

day night that he was arrested by Pa
trolman Craddock and brought to police
headquarters. Yesterday morning he was
before Judge Cameron.
Young Roblson confessed that he was
spying on his brother-in-law. who he
thought, was out walking with a wo'man
not his wife.
Patrolman Craddock 'thought he had
found a full-fledged highwayman when
he ran across Roblson at Front and Oak
streets, and when he brought the young
man out Into the light, he discovered that
his face was smeared with burnt cork
and he wore a talse mustache,
"He didn't look good to me, and I
brought him In." said Patrolman Crad
dock to Judge Cameron.
Roblson was ver' much humiliated at
being arrested and taken for a high
wayman, but said he supposed it did
look suspicious to on who did not un
derstand. The case was continued, as
Judge Cameron wished to secure some in
formation concerning him from another
source,

.... A
MISS ALBERTA GALLATIN. a
charming woman and capital act
ress, gave us Hubert Henry Davis be
witching, fairy, love-play at the 3Iar
quam last night.
Ethel Barrymore was perfection In
this beautiful product of poetic genius,
and Miss Gallatin Is some more perfec
tion. She Is finished, magnetic, velvety-voiced,
lustrous-eyed, piquant,
tenderly winning, ebullient, powerful
ly emotional, unquestionably one of the
elect. The sweet play wafts you pleas
ingly on the wings of fancy and mild
exaggeration into a strangely fascin
ating realm of fairy land where grown
up children may feel and play that
there is nothing in this life save beauty
and love's young dream. Underneath
an Incessant fusillade of wisdom and
stunningly clever lines, a kindly pa
thos, a beneficent klirdllncss and good
will toward all Is Interwoven, and
the effect Is strangely enticing. Some
way the dialogue nnd story touch the
heart, while at the some moment we
discern the wholesome womanliness
of Kate. I think the second act, where
Heath and Kate have their delicious
scene In the country house, is the best
and the other acts form a prelude and
a denouement merely, although the en
tire play is packed and permeated with
artistic touches that hold the Interest
and charm the intellect continually.
It Ik improbable, utterly, and still It
I so artistically and skillfully con
ceived and wrought out. that you be
lieve every word of it against your own
Judgment. Scarcely a company could
be collected that could kill that play.
It almost plays Itself. And of stage
accessories you are wholly unmindful.
It could be played in the backyard, or
in the front yard, or In the parlor, or
in the kitchen, or In the barn or Sum
mer house. It's Cousin Kate, dear, ten
der, lonely, lovable Cousin Knte all
through, and Miss Gallatin looked the
part, and lived the part with ability
of no common order. She is finished as
a piano case, I think her animation
nnd her case, which I see are guided
by a practical intelligence, are hcr
most Important and effective charac
teristics. Wilfred Rogers held up 'his
end as Heath Desmond, the envied man
who won Kate's affections, and the rest
of the players did fairly well in their
respective roles to help make the per
formance smooth and spirited. When
Heath bursts out to Kate: "I don't care
how wicked or married you are." you
catch the true, genuine note of sincer
ity which pervades the play. I believe
that everyone present went home with
the comment "charming." on their Hps.
A curtain raiser, named "A Game of
Destiny." was presented flrat. In which
Miss Gallatin took the chance to dis
play a bushel of ad lib emotional act
ing. It was a sombre bit. but showed
her power, and mannerisms of Jerky
walking. "Cousin Kate" will be re
peated this afternoon and tonight. I
wouldn't have missed "Cousin Kate"
by Miss Gallatin for a share In the gas
company. A. H. BALLARD.
"MADE IN OREGON."
That Will Be the Slogan or Exhibi
tion Plan of Admen's League.
By a unanimous vote at a special meet
ing of the Portland Admen's League, held
at the Commercial Club last night, it was
decided to christen the exhibition of Ore
gon manufactured products, which will be
held In this city May 15-26. Inclusive.
"Made in Oregon." This simple but mean
ing title is but a true expression of the
sentiment which moves the members of
the Portland Admen's League, which has
Inaugurated the movement to hold the ex
hibition. The sole purpose and Intent of the ex
hibition Is to promote the sale of Oregon
manufactured products and to create In
the people of the state an Intelligent,
yclfish desire to patronize home Industries.
It will be an exploitation medium which
it is believed will be of vast benefit to
every manufacturing concern In Oregon.
Therefore those present at the meeting
believed that "Made in Oregon" would be
the most appropriate name for the exhi
bition. Will Support Enterprise.
Now the movement is something more
than a fancy on the part of those enthu
siasts, who believe that Oregon is des
tined to be a great manufacturing center.
and it Is safe to say that the exhibition
is an assured fact. The members of the
Admen's League are determined to push
the enterprise through to a successful and
glorious conclusion, and are receiving the
hearty and unqualified support of the
members of the other commercial organi
zations of Portland, namely, the Cham
ber of Commerce. Commercial Club, Board
of Trade and Manufacturers Association.
Those who for a moment have fostered
the doubt that the movement for the ex
hibition was started to boost the manu
factured products of Portland should have
attended the meeting last night. It was
all Oregon, and Portland was barely men
tioned. No more was said about Portland
than there- was about Salem. Pendleton.
Eugene. Astoria. Baker City and other cit
ies. The selection of Portland as the city
in which the exhibition is to be held was
done because it was thought that the ex
ploitation work would be the more effect
ive In the larger city. That it is an Ore
gon, and not a Portland, movement was
shown when a motion was passed by a
unanimous vote asking the Oregon Devel
opment League to co-operate or to assist
with the commercial organizations of the
city in making the "Made in Oregon" a
success.
Portland Merchants "Will Aid.
Several dozen of the leading merchants
of Portland who have stores, on tho princi
pal streets of Portland have contented to
allow their window space to be used In
the exhibition of Oregon manufactured
products. Every manufacturing concern
in Oregon, no matter how; small or im
portant, will not only be asked but urged
to participate. The people of Portland
and all those who visit the city at that
time will then be given an opportunity to
see the varied and excellent products that
are manufactured In this state. Many
other features are being planned, such as
entertainments, parades, etc
Besides the members of the league,
among those who addressed the meeting
last night were Dan McAllen and Fletcher
Linn, president of the Manufacturers As
sociation. They were both very enthusias
tic over the movement- A genera r com
mittee was appointed to meet with the
other commercial organizations to devise
ways and means for the consummation
of the enterprise. The general committee
will meet with the Manufacturers' Associ
ation Monday night. It Is composed of IL
C Whlttler". R, M Hall, C C Chapman,
a H, Friedlander, William Klelm, A. L.
Stone and C. J. Owen. President B I.
Dasent presided at the meeting.
At this early date nearly 40 merchants
have agreed to furnish window space for
the exhibition. So much enthusiasm has
been manifested that it is known that not
the sMghttst difficulty will , be experi

OLIVER J. ECKHARDTS sensational
melodrama, "A Fight for Honor" Is
filling a week end engagement at the Em
pire Theater, opening last night. The pro
duction Is a strong one and Is well cast,
there being no weak spots to mar the
working of the four interesting acts.
The story of a soldier who is courtmar
tialed through mistaken evidence, who
escapes the death sentence to experience
several years of Insanity, then is restored
to reason and visits his old home in itself
Is interesting. But added to this is the
story of what he finds at the once af
fluent home. The wife and daughter,
who, he thought, would be living in me
wealth which his supposed death had ieft
them, were found In direst poverty, while
an enemy was enjoying what was right
fully theirs through machinations of a
forged will.
He remains in disguise while protecting
them and fighting for the restoration ot
his own honor, and while the fight is. a
long and hard one he finally succeeds.
Captain Jordon. or "Stormy" as he 5s
known during his disguise, is well delineated-
by W. P. Richardson. His work
shows much suppressed emotion and is
strong throughout. Sandy Walker, a ras
cally tramp accomplice of the villain, is
done by Mr. Eckhardt, The blind wife is
ably portrayed by Isabella R. Perry, and
the four young folks of the production
are pleasingly presented by Florence
Young. Georgia Nichols. Donald Blanch
ard and Maurice Chick. Chester Sterns
makes a very indifferent villain. "A
Fight for Honor" will be the attraction
at this afternoon's matinee and tonight.
