Piedmont Plant Xot for Sale. The Piedmont viator plant apparently is not for sale. It. B. Umson, of the water committee, appointed to negotiate with the owner, reports that no progress had heen made and that there was no dis position to sell the property. This situa tion will probably elear the way for the city to put down its own supply pipes without the cost of purchasing the plant, The big main from Mount Tabor runs along the south side of Piedmont. No action has been taken toward securing the W'oodlawn water plant. There is mine opposition toward the purchase of this plant on the ground that the people there put In most of the- service pipes, but the water committee has always been liberal toward all the private water com panies and will take both the Piedmont and Woodlawn plants over if they can be had for a reasonable price. The peo ple are asking for Bull Run water for domestic purposes and for fire protection at Woodlawn and Piedmont. Sfxlwood Wants Gas. J. W. Campbell, chairman of the committee appointed to make a canvass of Sellwood to ascertain how many would take gas for fuel and power, when the new company pets Its plant in operation, announces that the canvass is nearly finished, and practically every house owner visited had signified a desire to take the gas. The territory is south from Holgate street. This com mittee will be able to report at the next meeting o! the Sellwood Board of Trade. As soon as the company gats Its fran chise work will start on the plant, which will be put up near the Sellwood sawmill. J. M. Xlckum, a local capitalist, has ap plied for a franchise for the new com pany to lay mains through the streets of the Ruburbs of Sellwood. The price will be 50 cents a. 1000 cubic foot. Studkxts Saw Scjiool Fence. .V mild, Kcnsation has been caused at the Portland Academy, Fourteenth and Montgomery streets, by the discovery yesterday morn ing that during Tuesday night a large section of the highi board fence had been sawed out. The police were notified of the matter yesterday, and Acting Detec tives Price and Inskeep were assigned to the case. After investigating, the detec tives reported to Chief Gritzmacher that in all probability some of the scholars' had perpetrated the trick. There was no means of escape from the yards of the academy, and the police believe that mis chievous boys conceived the Idea of sawing out the portion of the fence. Further Investigation will be made today among the pupils. Eaoi.es' Initiation Tonight. The Fra ternal Order of ICagles are preparing for an extensive initiation tonight at their hall.

Was Never a Convict. T-awyer John F. lAtgan says that Fred F. Frye. sup posed to have been implicated in a shoot ing episode at Vancouver Wednesday night, has never served time in the peni tentiary, as was published. Frye was once arrested for robbing nlckel-in-the-slot machines, but was aqultted. as the court held It was not robbery to take money from a gambling device. The of fense lie was charged with at Vancouver was trivial, as-he merely drew a revolver, making no effort to shoot. Montgomery Slough Fill. The till of 1. arrabee street across Montgomery SlouKh. Txwer Albina. has dragged along islowly for some time, but the Pacific Bridge Company, which has the contract. Is running dump trains from Mount Tabor.

There is not a meat market in the city that has Government inspection of meats not one. There are some that "scream" for it, but it is only a fraudulent Beef Trust trick. Government inspection may be a very good thing for foreign and interstate trade, but it is hardly practicable in a city like Portland, where a large part of the meats come direct from the farm. And the fact that many of the Beef Trust markets make a "screech owl" out of any Kind ot meat tnat comes tneir way xs a disgrace to tne u-overnment and u-overn-ment inspection. FRANK L.
