Want Owl Cabs. The special commit
tee from the Bust Side Improvement As
sociation, composed of C. H. MeusdorfTer.
C. E. Fields, V. C. Dunning-, and H. H.
Newhall will Interview President Ful
ler regarding operating "owl" cars.
At present most of the care leave
on their final home trips shortly
after 12 o'clock, and the committee will
ask that the company establish a later
schedule on all Its1 suburban lines, in
cluding Sellwood, Mount Scott and other
lines running into the outlying districts.
Growth In these districts la such that a
demand for later cars has become insist
ent, and the association has taken up
the movement in behalf of these suburbs.
Also the committee will take up
the matter of operating a special East
Side car between Hawthorne and Holla
day avenues. This was partly promised
on completion of the Grand avenue em
bankment, and it is now practically fin
lshcd. Fine Cherries Raised xv City Limits
Few people are probably aware that
cherries as large and fine as any grown
In other sections of Oregon, or in the
world for that matter, are the product
of orchards within the boundaries of Port
land. Yet such Is the case, and 'one of
the finest cherry orchards in the State
Is that of D. S. Stephens, on the Colum
bia slough road. A. F. Flegel was ex
hibiting to friends last night a basket
of cherries from the Stephens orchards,
which would probably have taken a medal
at any horticultural exhibition In the
county. They were of the Lambert varie
ty, which, with the Blng cherry, Is doing
much to spread Oregon's reputation as a
cherry-raising state. Mr. Stephens has
about 15 acres In orchard, and about 60
of the famous Lambert cherry trees. The
fruit from the latter finds a ready mar
ket at from 10 to 15 cents a pound.
Bondsmen Still in Charge. "I don't
know what we shall do with the St.
John's postofilce." remarked T. J. Mon
fihan, one of Mrs. A. 3. Clark's bonds
men, last evening. "We still have it In
charge and have not been able to get It
Into the hands of an Inspector." A prop
osition was made yesterday that a clerk
be furnished by Postmaster Minto to take
charge, but the bondsmen did not like
the proposition, and they are still seek
ing for an inspector. There are all sorts
of rumors afloat concerning the St.
John's postofflce. It Is now known that
several protests against the removal of
Mrs. Clark have been forwarded to the
President, and among them was a strong
one from the General Compson Post, G.
A. R.. of which Mr. Clark is a member,
and also another protest from some busi
ness men, Independent of that one from
the mass meeting.
Deadlock Over Franchise. "We will
never grant the telephone franchise for
nothing," remarked Mayor Valentine, of
St. Johns, yesterday, "and we will stay
with the matter. The company will pay
us 2 1-2 cents per telephone or it wilt
not get a franchise." As the councllmen
are all of the same opinion, there is no
likelihood that the ordinance that the
Pacific States Telephone Company has
submitted will pass next Tuesday even
Ins, or at any time. The council has
conceded everything that the telephone
company has asked except in the mat
ter of compensation, and there Is a dead
lock on that point which seems likely
to stand. The telephone service Is left
In very unsatisfactory condition, but
there is little complaint and the people
seem to be supporting the council and
mayor.
Extends Advertising Time. Because
of the large amount of money involved In
the proposed Brooklyn sewer, Mayor
Lane yesterday authorised the extension
of time of advertising for bids from five
to 20 days. The period of five days Tor
advertising was fixed upon Inadvertently
by the executive board, as it is customary
to make large contracts public for a con
siderable time, In order to secure as many
bids us possible. The Brooklyn sewer con
tract involves the expenditure of approx
imately J250.000, and it will be advertised
In both local and Eastern papers. ,
Women's Club Picnic The picnic wnicn

eon prepared for them upon arrival at
the picnic grounds. The Oswego train

A. M., arriving at Oswego in time to af
ford a good day's outing.
Start Fill on Union Avenue. The
Pacific Bridge Company has started filling
on Union avenue, between East Alder
and. Morrison streets. One-half the street
here is on solid ground, and the rest Is
low land. This part of the fill will be
finished quickly, but what is in store at
East Stark street can only be conjec
tured, or judged from the experience on
Grand avenue.

HALDANE'S ARMY REFORM
Proposes Britain Keep 150,000 Men
Ready for Business.
LONDON, July 12. War Secretary
Haldane, in the House of Commons to
day announced the government's plan
for a more economical administration
and a more efficient maintenance of
the army. Among those present in the
house, which was crowded, was Wil
liam J. Bryan, who went there espe
cially to hear Mr. Haldane's speech.
Broadly, the government's proposal is
to maintain an expeditionary force of
150,00) men immediately available for
war, with a territorial organization be
hind it capable of supporting and ex
panding the forties serving abroad.
The War Secretary said the state
of national forces was highly unsatis
factory from the point of view of both
cost and organization. He believed
that economy and efficiency were not
inconsistent with democratic nations.
However they might differ on other
subjects, they were unanimous in the
desire to lighten the crushing bur
dens, due to armaments, now resting
upon them. The British government
desired to take its share In this move
ment, and meant to give it a lead. He
believed the proposed scheme would
increase the fighting efficiency of the
army by 50 per cent.
BEAR OVERCOME BY HEAT
Animals at City Park Surfer In
Their Cramped Quarters.
The lion and the polar bear at the City
Park were down and out last night. Both
were on their backs In their cages, paws
In the air and mouths open.
The Hon had the best of it. A cool
breeze blew In upon him and his hairy
head lay peacefully on the warm wooden
planking.
The polar bear was not happy. His
closely furred body was stretched un
easily on the hot concrete. His legs
were sprawled out and only an occasional
groan testified that he was alive.
Parkkeeper Lowitz was away last
night, but inquiry showed that no ice
had been given the suffering brute.
If the present warm spell continues It
is likely that the polar bear will not
survive. He does not stand high tem
peratures well and It is feared In the
park that a few days more will see the
pride of the Fair ready for burial.
Parkkeeper Lowitz Is doing all In his
power to help the brutes in their misery,
but nothing can be done without an ap
propriation for ice.
If present conditions continue it is
likely that measures to remedy them
will be taken by the Humane Society.
RIGGS STOOD VERY WELL
Village Authorities Hesitated Mak
ing Arrest for Milliner's Murder.
ELROY, Wis., July 12. A search by
the police of the house of N. M. Rlggs..
who killed himself at Elroy last night
after being arrested for the murder of
Millie Ellison in Minneapolis, has supplied
enough evidence to convict him of the
crime even had he not acknowledged It
by his own act.
Rlggs was so well thought of in this
place that the village authorities hesi
tated to arrest him when requested to
do so by the Minneapolis police. After
he was nominally placed under arrest he
was allowed to go several miles out In
the country to visit his wife and daugh
ter, who were staying with friends. He
returned to Elroy with them and was
being kept at the hotel, when he re
quested to go to a room. It has now been
established that, knowing the premises
thoroughly, he searched several rooms un
til he found a revolver, with which he
killed himself.
The police regard the case as one of the
strangest on record, Inasmuch as Rlggs
did not need the money and was In a posi
tion that called for steady habits and self
control. DAVIES DENIES GRAFTING
Lawyer Protests Against Charge
Made by Mutual Life.
NEW YORK. July 12. The special
meeting of the trustees of the Mutual
Life Insurance Company today considered
a protest submitted by Julian T. Davles,
a member of the board of trustees, in re
gard to references made in the final re
port of the Truesdale investigating com
mittee to the firm of Davtes, Stone &
Auerbach, of which Mr. Davies is a
member. ,
This report stated that the firm leases
office accommodations in the building of
the company, the rental charged being
$15,000 per year, and that the same firm
has been paid semi-annually the sum of
$15,000 per year for legal services. The
report further states that this sum paid
to the firm was apparently a retainer,
as no bills showing details of services
rendered have been furnished.
Mr. Davles stated that he never re
ceived a retainer from the company, and
the payments received by his firm from
the Mutual Life were for legal services
rendered and the bills for these services
were always made out in detail.
DO SOME TALL RESTING
Clerks Take Siestas on Water Tank
100 Feet From Ground.
Day dreams on a water tower more
than 100 feet above the suffering and
sweating population of Portland's re
tail district were indulged In yesterday
by employes of Olds. Wortman & Kins:.
While Old Sol stirred the coals in his
boiler and Brother Beals, the weather
man, touched u match to his official
thermometer in an effort to boost the
mercury to the century plug, employes
of the big store stretched themselves
on the water tank high on top of the !
firm's building and permitted the Sa- !
hara-like breezes to whistle through 1
their clothing while they dozed.
Sol's effortato oust the young clerks
from their pQltlons were almost over- '
come by the cold Bull Run water In
the tank, but in the end he triumphed.
Sewing Machines for Relief Work.
CHICAGO, July 13. At a meeting of the

sent to the relief association at San

for and the order recommended by the

Park., Wyo., July 12. (Staff correspond
ence.) The Oregonlan contest girls are
now in the very midst of the wonders of
GUEST AT LOYAL LEGION OF HONOR BANQUET
MAJOB-GEXERAL
the Yellowstone Park. They arrived at
Old Faithful Inn this morning and are
now enjoying the luxuries of the most
unique hotel in the world. The girls
without a single exception are in the very
best of health and declare that the trip
has far surpassed their most hopeful ex
pectations. They feel already that they
are more than repaid for their hard
struggle In the remarkable contest con
ducted by The Oregonlan.
They are having such a good time and
are so delighted with the Yellowstone
that they state they would like to remain
here all Summer. If the proud parents
of these 38 young ladles could see them
now they would recognize them with dif
ficulty. Some of them are sunburned, and
cold cream is at a premium, but the
cheeks of most of them have taken on a
beautiful tan. Practically all of the mem
bers of the party have taken on weight
and have appetites of sufficient propor
tions to do credit to the hungriest small
boy that ever lived. During the day the
girls visited the geyser hot springs and
the innumerable other points of intense
interest, and at night they attended the
dances which are given in their honor
at the various hotels at which they are
guests.
Some of the girls have proved to be
fishermen of the first order and have but
little trouble in catching long strings of
trout with which the streams and the
lakes of the Yellowstone abound. The
party travels from place to place in
stage coaches which are drawn by
picked horses.
The wild animals of the Yellowstone
Park have attracted the' girls' attention
about as much as anything else. Every
night they see half a dozen or more
bears at the rear of the hotels, where
the animals feed upon the garbage piles.
The click of cameras, as snapshots are
taken are heard from morning till night.
One young lady so far has taken 125
pictures. They have spent a small-sized
fortune in buying postal cards which
they mail their friends. One of the con
testants to date has mailed 123 postal
cards, which cost her from 1 cent to 2
cents apiece.
Just as the girls arrived here today in
the five coaches. Old Faithful, the great
est geyser in the world, began playing,
seemingly In honor of the bevy of charm
ers from the Northwest. This famous
geyser is within a stone's throw of the
hotel, and there are dozens of others in
close proximity.
The very best rooms of the Old Faith
ful Inn were reserved for the young la
dles, and they were most enthusiastically
received by the other guests of the
hostlery. The Inn ranks In the same
class with the Forestry building, which
was the crowning feature of the Lewis
and Clark Exposition, as it is constructed
entirely of logs. Even the furnishings of
the office and rooms correspond with the
rustic style of the structure.
Tomorrow morning the girls will leave
the Inn for tne Yellowstone Lake, where
they will arrive late in the afternoon.
From the lake they will go to Grand
Canyon and the falls. The party will
arrive in Portland July 30.
"DR. SHORT" LED THE DANCE
But Contest Girls Discover He Was
Only a Clever Impersonator.
ST. ANTHONY, Idaho, July 11 Mem
bers of The Oregonlan contest party were
horrified last night to witness the un
usual sight of Rev. F. Burgette Short, of
Portland, embracing one of the most
beautiful young ladles of the party In
the throes of a dreamy waltz at the Gray
ling Inn.
A great scandal was provoked, and it
looked for a time as though the dance
would necessarily be broken up. as the
young ladles were shocked beyond de
scription, but happily for the reverend
gentleman from Portland it turned out
that Dr. Short, who dared to disregard
one of . the strictest rules of the
church he represents, was an imposter,
and it was some audacious young man
from Pennsylvania, known by the name
of George W. Thompson.
Dr. Short himself was in bed at 'the
time, and not until morning was aware
of the joke that had been perpetrated
upon him. Of course, he took It good
naturedly. When The Oregonlan party
arrived at Grayling Inn last night Dr.
Short had gone to bed. None of the
girls knew Dr. Short personally, and Mr.
Thompson Introduced himself as that
worthy gentleman.
He met all of the girls, and when the
dance was well In progress he put in his
appearance. He asked one of the young
ladies (we would not dare to mention her
name), if she would favor him with a
dance, and before she realized what she
was doing she was In his arms and was
swinging gracefully over the floor.
Many of the other dancers stopped
short in their tracks, the greatest pos
sible astonishment written upon their
countenances.
The impersonator was game to the last,
and finished the dance, and then the news
was spread that the real Dr. Short was
safe and sound in his bed and that he
was unaware of the commotion, needless
to state the affair created no end of mer
riment. The dance last night was the most
unique entertainment attended by the
girls since they have been absent from
Portland. Music was furnished by typ
ical Western fiddlers, and cowboys, sol
diers and visitors to the park were among
the galants who made the evening par
ticularly enjoyable tor the girls.
Cowboys who had obtained wind of the
JOHN R. BROOKE.
visit of the Northwest belles rode as far
as 30 miles to attend the dance. They were
most courteous and all of them greatly
enjoyed themselves.
The Oregonlan party left Grayling Inn,
which is just outside the park, at 7
o'clock this morning, and arrived at the
Fountain Hotel at 11 o'clock, their stop
in the Park, where they will remain until
tomorrow morning.
Their stay at the Grayling Inn was very
pleasant, thanks to M. Y. Bridges, the
general manager.
The management of the Fountain Ho
tel is making it equally pleasant for the
girls, who are truly having the time
of their lives.
The girls today saw for the first time a
geyser. The Fountain geyser is one of
the attractions at the Fountain Hotel.
Among the wonderful sights they saw
were the paint pots, Great Fountain and
Fire Hole Lake.
Although there has been several very
narrow escapes, none of the young ladies
haye been left behind as yet. They are
all in good health and greatly invigorated
by the mountain air. The Monida & Yel
lowstone Stage Company has been ex
tremely considerate to the party. The
very best horses and coaches have been
at their disposal, as well as the fastest,
but most reliable drivers. Manager P.
C. Mackenzie and Assistant Superintend
ent R. MacLavlsh have been untiring, as
well as successful in their efforts to make
the young ladies comfortable.
