lieved to Contain a Joker.
The TTnlted East Side Push Club last
night Indorsed the movement Inaugu
rated by the Portland Board of Trade
for rebuilding the Madison street on a
hlffher elevation and for the construc
tion of a steel viaduct for the East
Side, thus enabling Sg per cent of the
mosquito fleet to pass under the bridge
without opening the draw and remov
ing all danger from passing trains on
the East Side. This mutter was brought
up by J. B. LAber and F. H. Goudy, of
the Board of Trade. Mr. l.aber ad
dressed the club at soma length ex
plaining the advantage of the higher
bridge and the viaduct. He said that
It was proposed to raise the bridge
nine feet at the draw, which would give
nn elevation of 55 feet above low water.
The viaduct, said Mr. Laber. would
he carried back to Union avenue, above
ill the tracks of the Harrlman lines, the
upper deck being on a level with the
ti"cond floor of the buildings on both
Fide of Hawthorno avenue. This plan
is Identical with the one proposed by
Architect Otto Kleemann for Grand
avenue. Mr. l.aber said that this via
duct ought be of steel. He urged that
in the rebuilding of Madison bridge
the future be considered.
The East Side, he said, already had
n large population and was growlns
rapidly and the matter of future popu
lation should bo considered in replacing
the bridge.
Mr. Goudy also spoke along the same
lineH, and read from the report of the
Board of Trade Committee.
Will Secure Indorsements.
After the matter had been thorough
ly discussed, the federation Indorsed
he Board of Trade plan, and G. Evert
Hnker. C. Bon Kclsland. I.. W. Wells.
II. B. Dickinson and Pr. I.. M. Davis
were appointed a special committee to
hrlng the matter to the attention of
the affiliated Push Clubs and secure
their Indorsement.
John K Cordray. J. M. Healy and
Thomas Hislop were appointed to take
up the question of lighting Grand ave
nue with additional electric lights as
soon as the hard pavement Is laid. The
object Is to light the street between
Hawthorne avenue and East Burnside
the same as the West Side streets are
lighted.
Extensive discussion of the proposed
nmendemnts to the charter affecting
the water supply was Indulged In. The
Free Watrr Association's plan was con
demned by & unanimous vote. Council
man Bennett declared that It contained
a 'joker." and that if It carried It
would mean that the 2-mlll bridge tax
would be abolished and bridge-building
would be stopped.
Dr. William -eVeny, who assisted In
the preparation of the other water
amendments indorsed by the water
committee, explained their purport. It
was the general sentiment of the Fed
erated Clubs that all reasonable effort
should be put forth to carry these
amendments at the June election, in
asmuch as they carried the provision
for the second Bull Run pipe-line. The
building of this pipe-line Is regarded
lis the most Important proposition to
the East Side coming up at the .lune
.lection. The rebuilding of the Madi
son bridge Is next.
Joseph Buchtel. of the committee ap
pointed to ask that the requirements of
firemen be modified, reported that he
had examined into the requirements,
and it was bis judgment that they were
reasonable, no modifications being nec
essary. Mr. Buchtel said that the rea
son It was difficult to obtain firemen
was because men preferred other occu
pations. On motion, the federation sdopted
the resolutions passed by the East Side
Improvement Association on the deatli
of Henry W. Goode.
It was suggested that the federation
discuss the proposed amendments to
the charter, which will be voted on at
the June election, and Secretary Rles
land was Instructed to procure copies
of the explanations as published in
The Oresoulan as guides in the discus-
Tired
slon. This action was taken in order
that the representatives may gret an
understanding: of the purport of the
several amendments.
Y. M. C. A. SECRETARY HERE
Says Town of 350 Has Society With
675 Members.
George D. MoDlll. lnternationl Secre
tary of the railroad department of the
Y. M. C. A., arrived In Portland on the
S:30 O. R. & N. train last night. He
Is making one of his regular trips to
the Coast, having visited prominent
cities of Utah and Idaho en route.
He will leave Wednesday night for
San Francisco and the East. In speak
ing of the progress of the railroad as
sociations and also of the Industrial
associations of the Southwestern part
of the country, Mr. McDIU said last
night:
"Onjny way out I came through Po
catello, Idaho, where there Is a flour
ishing association of railroad men.
Plans are being laid for their new
building to cost $30,000, and the asso
ciation Is now advertising for bids.
"A strange thing has happened at
Helper. Utah, a town with a popula
tion of 350. At the end of the first
year after the. association was organi
sed at this place, it had a member
ship of more than 675. This Is ex
plained by the fact that Helper is a
division point on the road, so that i
many of the men on the runs back
and forth became members, though
they were not residents of the town.
The railroad superintendents would
not believe that an association among
railroad men would hold together long,
so they organized a club In the town
before the coming of the T. M. C A.
The club fell through, and the Y. M.
C. A. took Its place.
The association work in vVelser. Pay
ette, Caldwell. Nampa, Emmett, Twin
Kails. Is going forward rapidly. At
Payette I met 25 business men who are
interested in association work and we
talked over the prospects for a larger
work In Payette."

THE MORXDfG OKEGO.VIAN, M"EDNESDAY,
A nervous, irritable mother, often on the verge of hysterics, is unfit to care for
children ; it ruins a child's disposition and reacts upon herself. She is a source of
misery to 'every one who comes under her influence, and unhappy and miserable herself. She cannot
help it, as her condition is due to shattered nerves caused by some feminine derangement, with back
ache, headache, and all kinds of pain, and she is on the verge of nervous prostration. Proof is monu
mental that nothing is better to regulate a woman s health than
Thousands and thousands of women testify to this fact.
Mrs. Nellie Makham, of 151 Morgan St., Buffalo, N.T., writes:
" Dear Mrs. Tinibam: I was a wreck from nervous prostration. I suffered so
r did not care what became of me, and my family despaired of my recovery. Physi

medicine on earth, and I am recommending it to all my friends and acquaintances."
Mrs. Geo. A. James, a life-long resident of Predonla, N.Y., writes :
Dear Mrs. Tmkbem : I was in a terribly run down condition and had nervous
prostration caused by female trouble, in fact I had not been wel since my children
were born. This condition worked on my nerves, and I was irritable and miserable.
I had tried many remedies without getting much help, but Lydia E. Pinkham's Veg

HE WOULDN'T TREAT
Stablemen Make an Example
of Lawyer Schlussel.
GREET HIM WITH CURSES
Attorney Has Three Hostlers Arrest
ed H. Phillips Bitterly Deceived
by Free Beer Sign Happen
ings of the Police Court.
If lawyer Mark Schulssel had bought
beer for the stable gang the trouble
would not have occured. The stable
employes at the Washington street es
tablishment, where the attorney has
been keeping his horse wanted beer,
or some fitting recognition of their
services in sitting up for the Schlussel
rig. They say they were repeatedly
promised refreshments. So on Kunday
evening, when the distinguished slot
machine representative hove in sight
with a jaded horse and promises of
future ref reshments, it was more than
they were willing to stand.
Had one stable employe, no matter
what his size, attempted to abuse law
yer Schlussel, there might have been
work for the medical profession. Mr.
Schlussel, himself said in the Police
Court yesterday, that he never would
have permitted one man to talk to
him In the way he was talked to on
tills particular occasion. There were
three of them, however, ail able bodied
and strapping and well discretion al
ways has been the better part of
valor.
The attorney thus was compelled to
look to the law for retribution. He
had the three men before Judge Cam
eron yesterday forenoon on charges of
using abusive language. "A nd such
language I never - heard before from
the mouth of human beings," the law
yer advised the court.
Inasmuch as unkept promises of
beer do not constitute a right to abuse
the party making the promises. Judge
Cameron found one of the stable
men, Joe Wright, guilty and fined him
$10. The others did not appear to
have had any direct connection with
the case and were not sentenced.
No wonder the saloon at the north
east comer of Second and Burnside
street was doing a big business and
An Optical Illusion.
losing money. Out on the Second
street side there was a glaring sign
rearing the legend ! ree Irish Beer
"Irish Beer' was something entirely
new to the devotees of the German
article, and the fart It was free, added
to the attractiveness of the sign. H
Phillips was among those to read from
the Fourth street side. Phillips hadn't
a tent and a growing thirst, so natur
ally, the thing appealed to him. He
went inside and emptied schooner af
ter s.-hooner. After the tenth drink,
the bartender became susptclous. and
demanded a settlement. Phillips was
truly amated. He demanded to know
what was meant by advertising free

beer, and then demanding payment for
it.
The bartender didn't stop to argue the
question. He simply got out the proverb
ial "bung-starter," leaped over the
counter and cast Phillips mangled re
mains out on the sidewalk, where he lay
untll the police picked him up and put
him In the inebriated division of the
municipal prison.
Phillips says this is a cruel world
where frauds of that sort are allowed
without police interference. But It is
pointed out that he is not sufficiently
painstaking in his literary researches.
The sign In question begins on Second
street and curves its way gracefully
around to Burnside. Had Phillips read
the complement of the Second street ver
sion he would have seen that the sign
reads: "Free Hot Irish Stew; With Beer
Five Cents. ' ' That the words are ar
ranged in a double column so that the
legend. "Free Irish Beer ' appears on
Second street and the rest on Burnside
is Phillips' misfortune.
There are altogether too many Ah Sings
who are in the habit of gambling and
getting caught by the police. Three Ah
Sings were in the Municipal Court yes
terday. The only way of telling them
apart was by their respective lawyers
and at that they were mixed up. John
Iogan's two Ah Sings were fined $15
for Iawyer Makelln's Ah Sings crimes.
An hour was required to get the thing
straightened out.
It was suggested that they change their
names. Makelln's Chinaman might pre
serve his name In the present tense, and
IOgan's might choose the past tense. Ah
Sang and the participial form. Ah Sing
ing. Or, again, one or two of them might
go into grand opera and select some such
name as Sig. Ahsingnoretti.
Tom Johnson was continually laughing
and the police thought he must be crazy
or drunk. "Why a man should laugh is
more than a policeman can understand.
The police haven't had cause to laugh
for a long time not since the domino
burglar or Bruin came to town. Hence
Johnson's facial contortions annoyed such
wearers of the blue as beheld the spec
t acle. They watched for a chance t
destroy that smile and the other evening
when Johnson happened to be out a little
late they arrested him on a charge of be
ing on earth after midnight. But he only
laughed about it when they took him in.
and he laughed some more when he was
arraigned before Judge Cameron yester
day forenoon. He was so full of joy
that an explosion seemed imminent. His
temperament was the envy of everyone
present. It seemed to be worth more than
all the millions Carnegie doesn't intend to
give away.
His happiness continued to flow tn an
unchecked stream until even the court
begun to think that a man of this tem
perament In these pessimistic days must
surely be abnormal, or a sufferer from
mental idiocyncraciea that ought to be
looked into. Johnson, accordingly, was
sent up to the County Court to undergo
an examination as to his sanity.

RAILS FOR STREETS
Vancouver to Have Complete
Streetcar System.
WILL ALSO TAP COUNTRY
Headed by W. H. Moore, Company
Has Ordered Material and Will
Begin Construction Before
End of Present Month.
Vancouver, Wash., Is soon to have a
street railway and the promoters of the
project, who are Portland and Is An
geles people, will build a system into
the surrounding country. Ralls have
been ordered and deliveries will com
mence not later than April 20, when
construction work will be started.
W. H. Moore, president of the Oregon
Savings & Trust Company, is at the
head of the Washington Railway &
Power Company, the corporation form
ed to develop power In Clark County
and gridiron that part of Washington
with a. network of electric lines. Fran
chises have been secured in Vancouver
and petitions for similar permits on
county roads leading out of that city
are now pending before the County
Court.
Five miles of 60-pound rails have
been ordered from A. J. McCabo, a Port
land railway equipment dealer, and the
first deliveries will be in Vancouver by
April 20. As soon as the steel arrives,
it .will be laid on Vancouver streets. It
is the plan to lay about four miles
within the city limits first and then
extend the system through the nearby
country.
Two county roads leading out of the
city into rich prune growing districts
will probably be used by the company.
Plans have been made to lay rails to
Washougal and another branch to
Proebstel, which Is four miles from
Vancouver In another direction. A wide
suburban system of trolley lines will
be built, says President Moore, as the
country develops and additional lines
are needed. Already there is much
traffic available for electric lines in
the districts to be entered.
Associated with President Moore is
L. B. French, Arthur Langguth and H.
C. Phillipps of los Angeles, and Judge
Miller of Vancouver. Mr. French is
vice-president of the company; Mr.
Langguth secretary, and Mr. phillipps
treasurer. Judge Miller is general
counsel. The project has been suc
cessfully financed and everything Is
ready for construction.
A steam electric plant will be built in
Vancouver and power for the city lines
will be generated there. It is planned
to develop water power when the sys
tem requires additional energy.
ROAD INSISTS ON INCREASE
Lumber Rate Will Go In Effect, De
spite Protests.
Although there is the most strenuous
opposition to the proposed Increase of
lumber rates from Willamette Valley
points to the California markets, officials
of the company maintain that the in
crease will be placed In effect regardless
of the complaints. Traffic officials have
been notified that the matter will be
taken up by the State Railroad Com
mission at Salem April 15, and that it
the officials desire, they may attend and
present their side of the case.
An interesting festure ot the case is,
however, that the Commission has no
jurisdiction in the matter whatever, the
rate being an interstate tariff. The Com
mission may, however, investigate the
subject and make recommendations to
the Interstate commerce Commission,
which may or may not take action. It
would be some time, tn this event be
fore the rate is ordered cancelled in
case the interstate body should decide to
take up the cudgel of the lumbermen.
Millmen throughout the Valley are bit
ter against the Southern Pacific for the
announced increase in tariffs and say
that It means ruin to the small mills.
The Increase is one of J2.13 a 1000 feet on
the freight rate to Ban Francisco from
the Valley.
"When the new Tate becomes effective.
It will further boom the water carrying
trade to California ports. Valley mills
will ship their product to Portland and
transfer to vessels for carriage to its
destination.
