10 FRGHMftN JEWELRY . STOCK PLUP4DERED Burglaries of Recent Weeks i Capped by $2000 Haul at Hotel Portland. N0CLEW;P0LICE HELPLESS Kobbers Pry Off Iron Grating at Yamhill-Street Side and Then Confine Operations to Ori ental Jeweled Curios. Burglars looted the rooms of the Froh man Trading Company. In the Hotel Port land, of $2m0 worth or Oriental Jewelry early Thursday morning. The crime was the most startling of a long list of daring burglaries in Portland of late and news of it was immediately ordered suppressed by Chief Gritzmacher. The utter inability of the police to find the perpetrators being assigned. as the cause. No arrests have been made in any of the long list of hold-ups, robberies and larceny cases, and In this, as in the others.- the detectives have made no headway. The boldness and daring of the burglars, believed to have been two in number, can be readily seen when It Is known that they calmly chiseled off the bolts that held an Iron grating in place in front of the window by the Yamhill-street side of tho Frohman establishment, after ,which they removed the obstruction. They then used a "jimmy" to pry open the window Itself and entered the storeroom. Once inside, the btu-glars helped them selves to all the valuable articles they wished and made their escape without leaving any clew whatever. Acting De tectives Price and Hellyer were assigned on the esse Thursday forenoon, but nothing has been accomplished yet. After Oriental Jewelry Alone. The Frohman establishment is on the ground' floor of the Portland, In the room at the northeast corner of Seventh and Yamhill streets. The stock Is very valu able. All kinds of beautiful Oriental Jewelry are handled by the company and It was to this line of goods that the thieves turned their exclusive attention. The thieves overlooked much loot they could have had for the taking, such as silk kimonos and that line of fancy goods. "What they carted off, however, was much easier to make away with, as It could have been carried in a small receptacle. In the plunder that was carried away were numbers of umbrella handles, cigar ette cases, cigar cases, card cases, a gold bracelet, a gold band with jade, a plain gold band, a heavy carved bronze, plain Jade rings, long bar Jade rings, plain heavy pair of cufflinks. Jade beads, watch fobs, stickpins, necklaces and similar articles. Tho Frohman company carried insur ance covering a part of the loss in the National Surety Company, of New York, of which James Mcl. Wood Is general agent in Portland. Chief of Police Gritzmacher. when asked regarding the daring robbery, said that from what he had been able to learn of It the crime was committed by profes sional burglars. He said that no definite Information has yet been secured as to who did the work. Burglaries Almost Every Night. The criminal element has been unusual ly active in this city recently, and hardly a night passes hut one or more burglaries are reported. One downtown jewelry store was robbed or hundreds of dollars' worth of goods and later an unsuccessful at tempt was made to break Into another establishment on the same street. An unknown man struck the heavy plateglass window pane with a sharp instrument but failed to make a hole large enough through which to run his hand. The police believe Jt was the man's intention to reach in and steal a tray of diamond nr-rinsil on dlSDlaV. up and robbery a night for several weeks, There has been an average 01 one nmu- IT IS STILL BULL RUN "o Quorum of Initiative One Hun dred at Meeting to Change Xante. For the present the earth, sun, moon and stars will continue to be known by their original names. Theso heavenly bodies will still occupy their accustomed places in space. Bull Run Creek, by geographical arrangement, must still have its source from the Mount Hood watershed, and the people of this city will be required blushingly to allude to their water supply as the product of Bull Run. The proposed merger of the City of Portland and the County of Multnomah must also necessarily be postponed and the municipality and the county will fol low the even tenor of their way with separate forms of government in the ad ministration of their affairs. All this is because the Initiative One Hundred failed to hold a meeting last night. Through a misinterpretation of the notices that had been sent out calling for the meeting, a misunderstanding arose among the members as to the date of the important session and a quorum failed to mnd. Therefore it became necessary to adjourn, subject to the call of the Francis I. McKenna. This means a respite of at least one week, nerhans a fortnight, for the different r,ior,t mountain stream. Pacific Coast metropolis and Multnomah County with whose rechrlstening ana reorganization the Initiative One Hundred has charged Itaolf The committee having charge of the Bull Run name-changing contest, how over. reDorts that it has received more than 100 suggestions as to more pleasant sounding and desirable names for the stream from which Portlaad draws her water supply. These names will be con- .u.r at the next meeting of the or ganization, which will probably be held a ' week hence. BOYLE ON WAY TO MANILA Arrest of Alleged Embezzler Expect ed When Ship Lands. The Portland police have received in formation that J. S. Boyle, formerly agent for the United OH Company, no wanted for embezzlement, is on his way to Manila. P. I. Captain of De tectives Bruin has taken steps to have him apprehended if he lands in Ma nila. Boyle was agent here for the United OH Company, a concern with large tanks at Linnton. His books were ex perted about two months ago and 'crj found to reveal an alleged shortage of approximately $4000. At that time he tied, and his employers caused a warrant to be Issued. He left his wife penniless. Elgin watches, Goodman's, 211 Morrison. IN FO BY LILIAN TINGLE. HE yellow Japanese or Chinese per simmons, now to be had at 40 and 50 cents a dozen, make exceeding pretty cups for the fruit cocktails of a yellow and russet JVutumn luncheon. Combined with bits of orange and seeded white grapes, they also make a pleasing sweet salad, with either a syrup or egg-and-gelatine dressing. The seedless Chi nese persimmon is perhaps the best, for its flavor is particularly delicate, though decldedly "different," and It has no in convenient seeds concealed in Its orange colored pulp. Prickly pears are in the market at 5 cents each, side by side with peaches at 40 cents a dozen, fine Hood River straw berries at 35 cents a box, and some un named strawberries at "25 cents. There was a large display of fine Concord grapes at 20 and 25 cents a box; other grapes ranging from 30 to 00 cents. Pine apples cost 65 cents, but looked good and fresh. There were' some melons of dif ferent kinds still left, but they looked as if they knew themselves no longer truly popular. I saw more nice pears than I did last week, and some really splendid apples. A few housekeepers have complained of the difficulty In getting their favorite limes here In Portland;, but I saw some pretty good ones yesterday at . a cents a dozen. Many at the tomatoes at this time are Inclined to be somewhat hard, flavorless and uninteresting; and the sliced toma toes on lettuce that were so attractive earlier in the Summer are beginning to pall for many people. If such be your case, try tomato fritters, made like apple fritters, with a seasoning of chives or onion Juice, chopped parsley. and lemon Juice or vinegar, Instead of sugar and spice. Pepper and salt, too, of course. These are good, served with cutlets. Another tomato' "dodge," Thich I met some time ago, but of which I don t know the official title, was evidently prepared as follows: Take a rather thick ' PETITION TO SOUSA Bandmaster May Make Rose Festival Famous. IF HE PLAYS ROSE MARCH Canvassers' Reports Incomplete and Success or Failure of $100,000 Campaign Will Not Be Evi dent for .Several Days. Arrangements for a conference between the officials of the Portland Rose Festival Association and John Philip Sousa, the renowned band director, now filling a short engagement in the city, have been made, with a view of having the famous imnresario tut the "Rose Festival" march, composed by Signor A. DeCaprio, on his regular programme during his present tour.

Big Givers to Yet Respond. Returns from the canvassers -who went out under the general call show that more than 50 per cent of them worked diligently in the districts al lotted to them and their reports, while incomplete, indicate that the great mass of people gave liberally. The hanks. . hotels, restaurants, lumber man faoturinir establishments and other Important business and Indus trial institutions, will probably be heard from today or Monday, in re sponse to the general appeal Issued from headquarters two days ago.

It has been decided that no attempts shall be made to carry out tho elab orate week's programme or to work on any of the details until it Is settled Just how much civic pride Portland has in the undertaking. If the total llflO. 000 is secured, -one set of plans will be carried out; but if the Citizens do not display enough interest in the mammoth scheme to advertise the city to give that' amount, a general policy of retrenchment in expenses will be adopted forthwith. This Is one of the questions which will be considered at the meeting Monday night. Columbia County's Timber Cruise. ST. HELENS. Or., Oct. 17. (To the Edi tor.) Slnoe The Oregonlan has published a communication from its correspondent at 6t. Helena, about Columbia County's cruise. we deaire to state that the County, Court has only paid out $17,000. and further that the . County Court of Columbia County ha generally got value received. and this crul will ba no xcectloa to the nil. Th mutton chop French, English, or of the round skewered up variety, and make a cut In the thickness of the lean, so as to form a sort of pocket; insert a slice of well-seasoned tomato, and then either broil the chop "en papillote," or egg and crumb In the usual cutlet fas.ilon. There is still a fine range of vege tables. Scarcely any corn rema.ns, but you may have beans, peas, several varie ties of cabbage and squash, spinach, kohl-rabi. celerlac, Brussels sprouts, egg plant, cucumbers, peppers, celery, cauli- flower, and the usual root vegetables. ' Some very fine French artichokes were offered at 2 for 25 cents. I like them best with Hollandaise, or, cold, with Mayon naise; but a friend of mine declares that the very nicest way of serving them is baked, with a mysterious stuffing in which pine nuts play a leading part. Of course, the artichokes are lirst boiled In the usual way. Mushrooms are costing 30 to 50 cents a pound on account of all this brigrht, dry weather. . Poultry prices are unchanged, but gen tle hints are being given by the dealers that the wise housewife ought already to consider the placing of her order for the Thanksgiving turkey. Thanksgiving seems a long way off, but It will be upon us before we know It; so begin betimes your planning for the dinner, its menu and Its guests. Last week there were apparently" no Belgian hares on the market, but they are to be had now at about Jl each. Jugged hare Is a fine dinner for Sunday, when you want to go to church ana pre pare a meal by the absent treatment. Lobsters, fine big ones, too, at 35 cents a pound, are on the list of available fish. The others are black bass. 30 cents; striped bass and salmon trout, 25 cents; croppies, 20 cents;' shad, smelt, catfish, black cod. torn cod and sole, 15 cents; salmon, 10 to 15 cents; flounders, 12?j cents, and halibut 10 cents a pound. Crabs are 15 and 20 cents each. I have to confess that I forgot to ask the price of clams, but I think it is probably the same as last week. cruise Is low, we will admit; but that there Is a marked uniformity must be acknowl edged. As to the bond, Tt Is good if the contract Is Rood. We are not depending wholly on the District Attorney, either to draw our contracts or to defend the ones we draw. R. 6. HATTAN. County Judge.'
