16 TT"E MORNING OREGOXIAX, TUESDAY, MAY 19, 1908. TICKETS SELLING . AT A LIVELY BUTE Forecast for Good Weather Makes Business for Trans portation Companies. CROWDS WILL SEE FLEET Special Trains to Be Run From Portland to Astoria and Seaside. Potter Goes to North Beach Points-Other Excursions. With a rising barometer and the wind rapidly shifting to the north, good -weather is assured to all people who leave' Portland to see the fleet, which will pass Clatsop Beach, the mouth of the Columbia and Long Beach tomorrow. Tickets for the steamships which will cross out over the bar have. been selling- at a lively rate and accommo dations for all the boats which have been advertised to sail will be sold out long before the hour of departure from Astoria arrives. Agents of the companies at Astoria have been in structed to place tickets on sale and returns from there show a larger sale than from Portland. Weather conditions have been such during the last five or six days that people have deferred making reserva tions, but with the sunshine of yester day afternoon, coupled with a rising Klass and a temperature which sa vored more of Summer, the crowds poured out and 'tickets were disposed of rapidly. The steamer T. J. Potter, which will leave the Ash-street dock tonight, will rarry a full list of pleasure-seekers. She will reach Astoria in time to al low all on board to have breakfast there, and will then proceed to Meg lers, the new terminal of the Ilwaco Railway & Navigation Company, where passengers will be transferred to the train and taken to points on the North Beach. The most advantageous place on the North shore is North Head light station, and many people will make that their objective point. South beach visitors will be cared for by the Astoria & Columbia Kiver Kail road Company, which will run spe cials from Portland and will also maintain a special service between Astoria. Seaside and Fort Stevens. Passenger offficials of the railroad are assembling every available coach that can be secured in order to carry the crowds of people which the road ex pects to handle to Astoria and Seaside to see the fleet on its way north. Every coach belonging to the line that is not out of commission will be used and the road Is borrowing equipment from other railroads in this state wherever possible. Special trains will leave Portland tomorrow morning at 7 o'clock and will reach Astoria in time to transfer passengers to the steamships and per mit the vessels to leave there in time to reach the fleet an hour before noon. The maneuvers will occupy about three hours and at 3 o'clock the excursion boats will head for Astoria, reaching there in time for people to have supper and catch the special trains for Portland. Visitors to Seaside will have an op portunity to go direct to Tillamook Head and from that vantage point view the fleet at sea. A new trail has been cut from the end of the board walk and the trip can be made with out inconvenience. SVPBR VISING INSPECTOR HERE Captain John Rcrmtngham Fays an Official Visit to Portland. Captain John Bermingham, Supervis ing Inspector of Steam Vessels, arrived from San Francisco yesterday morning on his semi-annual tour of inspection of the various offices of local inspectors in his district. Captain Bermingham will proceed from Portland to Puget Sound, where he will devote considerable atten tion to checking up gasoline craft which will carry passengers during the visit of the fleet. . Ixtcal Inspectors Edwards and Fuller will proceed to Astoria today where they will inspect all gasoline croft which will engage in passenger business during the movements oflhe fleet, tomorrow. A per mit will be granted to each vessel and the number of passengers which, the craft is allowed to carry will be plainly stated. Operators of these boats will be compelled to show said certificates to the customs officials at landing places. For steamer Line to Alaska. An effort to divert some of the Alaskan trade to the Columbia River is to be made by the Astoria Chamber of Commerce. This civn be done only by putting on a line of steamships between Portland and the principal commercial points of Alaska, tuich as Skagway, Sitka, Juneau and Nome. Manager Whyte, of the Astoria organization, has addressed a communica tion to Secretary Uiltner, of the Portland Chamber of Commerce, asking the co operation of Portland commercial organ isations. It is proposed to appoint a num ber of delegates from the Portland com mercial bodies to meet a like delegation from Astoria and Alaska in the near future to take up this matter and see that it is carried out. The meeting of the delegates will be held in Portland. Sailors Return to Strathgyle. The steamship Strathgyle sailed yes terday for Shanghai with a full load of lumber. The five negro sailors who refused duty at an early hour Sunday morning were returned to the vessel and she left down for Astoria. Cap tain Grant made no explanation of the affair. He paid off a Hindu fireman and took back the sailors, regardless of the fact that . they held up the steamer for 36 hours and cost the own ers about $S00. Many Passenpers on Rose City. The steamship, Rose City, from San. Francisco, arrived up yesterday after noon with 396 passengers and a large quantity of freight. This Is the largest number of passengers brought in Port land for many years by a vessel operat ing on the San Francisco run. The larger number of passengers are persons returning from San Francisco and San Diego, where they went to catch a glimpse of the fleet. Dolphins Placed for Warships. Work on the dolphins which act as fenders for the ships of the Navy which have been ordered to Portland for the Rose Festival will begin this morning. Five three-pile dolphins will be set at a point on the East Side, be low the Steel bridge. At the lower end a heavy mooring buoy will be placed so that all craft will have a safe and convenient berth. The work is . under the personal direction Of Harbormaster Speier. Marine Notes.

To the Rdltoi In accordance with Instructions' to the- ex ecutive committee of the. Oregon Equal Suf frage Association, given us by leading men of ail parties accustomed to the manage ment of the state electorate, it has been our aim (in wtitch we have been remarkably successful) to first secure the co-operation of the state's weekly press before urging tne attention or our equal surf rage amend ment upon the metropolitan newspapers. As my brethren of the State press Association are well aware, it has been my humble aim for many years to co-operate with the news paper fraternity as far as possible In every movement upon which we may passively or tacitly agree, if such aim might in any way conduce to the liberty, progress and pros perity' of all the people (to quote Abraham Linclln) "by no means excluding women.' in pursuance of a quiet campaign. In which I was glad to have the assistance of our state executive committee (S per cent of the legal voters of the state having secured the resubmission of our amendment for us), I submitted to the weekly newspapers of all the counties the subjoined simple, earn est and humble Appeal to Voters. This unpretentious appear appearing in April and May In 242 different publications throughout the 33 counties of the state, is now, by order of our executive committee, to be released to the Portland daily press, in the serene belief that it will be accorded the same respectful consideration in city homes and business houses that has been freely bestowed upon It by the state at large. It is not offered anywhere as an ar gument, nor Is it posed as a literary effort. The oregonian says, truly, tnat or amendment is the best understood of all the amendments to be submitted at the coming election: and the irreat newspaper certainly voices the expectations of 40,000 organised women of Oregon when It says 4it will patob ably carry." Last week, under the tactful management of Mrs. Clara H. Waldo, dean of the State Agricultural College, and now retiring lec turer of the State Grange, I visited, the Grangers-' convention at Eugene, Where, after I had given a brief impromptu adtiress. I had the honor to submit a resolution de manding the adoption of the equal suffrage amendment, which was unanimously car ried. The same spirit of friendly optimism was manifested at the State University, and was favorably received by all m;n and newspapers, regardless of their opinions upon other questions, concerning which they were often widly at variance. Oregon's Opportunity. TCobody now doubts the fact that the world-wide enfranchisement of women in civilised' countries is inevitable. TJhe States of Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and Il&aho are in line with Australia, New Zealand, Pin land. Sweden and other foreign, lands in granting equal rights to women. .'England is following the example of other countries and colonies as rapidly as her congested governmental regulations will allow. Oregon Is the only state In the Union, ajnd as far as I know, the only geographical subdivision of government In the world, where this ques tion can be settled by a vote ofj one-half th people in 1908. She. and she only, is In a position to become a marked! and popular leader In a government "of ill the people, for all the people and by alt the people" in this first decade of the 2otla century. Let the news go out, on the second day of the coming June, that she has enfranchised the wives and mothers within rjer borders, and she will give the world a. free advertise ment of greater advantage to the state at large, than can accrue to her by the ex penditure of millions of dfollars by all the push Clubs and revelopmnt Leagues with in her boundaries. The appeal to voters follows: "Gentlemen, voters, soiTa, brothers: I am growing old, but I cannot rest until you have given us the victjory. Every hour I spend in this service its a labor of love. Every dollar I donate is. a personal sacrifice. Have the faithful motjhem of Oregon not earned your affirmative votes for their full and free enfranchisement r You ought not to be afraid of us. "You are equipped -with ballots. We are not. We are depending upon you to honor our flag of truce by voting 'Yes' In our behalf in this unequal contest. You know you would only compel us to repeat this straggle in 1PL0 if jou should fail us now. But we believe you will not fail. You have but to unlock the door to the closed citadel of liberty, leaving us free to choose for ourselves, exactly as you do, as to whether to vote or not to vote, at every succeeding election. Thus onlly can you acquit your selves as freemen and relieve us from further effort to taecure equality with our sons before the larw. "ABIGAIL SCOTT DUN I WAT.

SORRY HE PLAYED MAN Si Crowd in North End Saloon Takes All Max Fisher's Money From Him. NEWS OF MUNICIPAL COURT Oregon Law Defines Hotel Too Close ly to Suit Landlord Gunn, and , Piano Below His Place Can Play After Midnight. ' Max Fisher, a clerk who went out with a month's wages in his pocket and sought to impress a crowa of half hungry unemployed men in the North Knd with his wealth, was literally mobbed by no less than 20 men and every cent ho had taken firom him and this on tne public street with hundreds of people near ait hand. Such, at least, is the story told by the victim and it Is belierved by the authorities, after an investigation. Fisher told of the , episode from the witness stand of the Municipal Court yesterday forenoon in explaining why he walked up behind Charles McCar ick. In front of the Oregon Hotel Sun day, seized McCarick atwut the neck and began shouting police at the top of his voice. He declared McCarick waa on of the money-mad crowd, and that he had every reason to believe McCarick secured $6 of his money, that amount being found on the pris oner upon arrest after the seizure of Sunday, already described. McCarick denied the charge of tiaking the money, but admitted he did take part In the scuffle which cost Ffcsher what money he had, some $76. Fisher admitted he was guided some what by his vanity when he invaded a saloon frequented by worklngmen, mostly unemployed, and invited everyone up for a drink. He was the best dressed man in the place, and about the only one that had a cent, excepting the bartender. After buying , several rounds of drinks those who were present say Fisher boasted of being- the son of a rich man, and said money was no ob ject to him. It was then that McCar ick stepped up and began telling how hard pressed for money some of the assembled company chanced to be. "There's good old Bill Jones. He's down on his luck. Give him a dollar, young fellow," McCarick admits he told Fisher and Fisher gave over the dollar, apparently not wishing to bo stinting of his money after the big talking ho had engaged in. Then Mc Carick interceded for another "poor workman," and another, until Fisher, after passing out five dollar pieces, decided the luxury was becoming to expensive and started for the door. As ho gained tho street nearly everyone kn the saloon started out behind him, McCarick leading. Mc Carick overtook him and asked him for more money, saying that since he was a rich young man he should help those out of work and sorely in need. Fisher said he didn't have "anything smaller than a fifty McCarick was persistent. Fisher lost his temper and McCaricK hit him In the face, stun ning hum. This is admitted by both sides. Then the crowd from the sa loon swirled about him, pilfered his pockets In less time than it takes to tell of it, and made away, leaving tho self-styled "rich man's son" to walk home for want of car fare, and possibly to stave off his landlady for the month's board bill. MaCarick was so intent on trying to promise he didn't get any of the money that he incriminated himself as to assaulting Fisher. While in the opin ion of Judge Cameron the evidence was not quite strong enough to war rant holding the man for robbery, a charge of assault and battery seemed clearly made out, and at the sugges tion of Deputy City Attorney Tomlin son a new complaint was issued, on which McCarick will be tried today. The iaw is a most peculiar thing. James Gunn went into the Municipal Court yesterday morning laboring un der the delusion that he was a hotel keeper. He drew that conclusion from the slender act that he has been con ducting a public Inn at Third and T),.DUa m troata for RiY Vears Dast. His place has 100 rooms and about 75 people make the hostelry their place of abode. It appears that In a saloon directly i rv ne Vi 1 a ntnffl An elec- trie piano has been put In.

In his admission that the place didn't have "a general public dining-room," but merely a private eating-place for the ac commodation of employes and a few fa vored guests, Gunn undermined his case, and it was thrown out of court. A Supremo Court decision on the sim ilar. If time-worn conundrum, "When is a door not a door?" will doubtless be heard with great interest should that question ever he submitted. Such a hard, bitter place of worldly strife and competition is a big city, that Andrew Slcaurmace appealed to Judpe Cameron in the Municipal Court yester day to send him to jail in order that he might be released from the struggle for existence. He said the odds are too great, that he has despaired of success in the city, and that he is going back to the farm very shortly. His father lives near Aberdeen, Wash., and the young man said he had already written for money to return to parental shelter. He expects the money in about five days, and asked to be sent to jail during that time, so that ho might have something to eat and a place to rest. Sicaurmace aamiiiea mat ne came nrei six months ago with high hopes. The farm was not big enough for him. He tomach Belching of gas, sour risings in the throat, pain after eating, a general feeling of heavi ness, irritability, these are condi tions which Dr. Williams' Pink Pills correct. "I had a distressed feeKng after eating, often followed by terrible Tomiting spells, says Mrs. William Duelly, of 43 Lucas avenue, Kingston, N. "and became subject to deathly sick headaches. I was cons tantly belching gas in my efforts to relieve my stomach. I was in this condition for nearly three and a half years, although I tried a number of doctors. I was discouraged with them all, when I read about Dr. Williams Pink Pills. A few boxes helped me wonderfully. I continued their use until cured and have had no signs of stom ach trouble since." Br.

Misled by a super abundance of ego, he took, his clothes' and a few dollars and came to Portland to make his fortune. Some days he has eaten since coming here. Some days he has not. He stayed with the fight, hoping fortune would come his way and he would he riding about in a big roadster of his own, instead of walking several miles a day to save car fare. But it kept growing more hopeless. Work could be had only at intervals and Saturday night he was picked up by the police for walking the streets after hours. He hadn't any place to sleep. The offense was not a grievous one, and Judge Cameron would have let the young ruralite go, except that he spoke up and asked for a sentence of five days. He didn't know where he could eat and sleep, unless in jail, he said. He was sure his father would send, him money to return to the farm within five days, though, and the Court considerately im posed the sentence, as requested. HARD TIMES FOR ACTORS Over 2000 Out of Work and Actors' Fund Overdrawn. NEW YORK, May 18. The coming Summer gives every promise of being the hardest one in years for the members of the theatrical profession. It has been a long time since there has been as dis astrous a season, theatrically, as the one just closed, and there is no prospect 1 of any better times for the actor for many months, in fact until after the election next Fall. In the height of the season it was estimated that more tan 2000 actors and actresses were out of work In New York, the largest number of unemployed in the profession for many years. A large' number of companies that started in the ' season with every prospect of success were forced to close soon after the coming of the financial depression which followed close upon the opening of the theatrical -season. For this rea son, even among actors that were employed early in the season, thousands were forced to be satisfied with very short The Stress of modern life uses up vitality and energy and exhausts the nerve batteries too fast for ordinary food, hence nervous ness, nerve weakness ' and nervous wrecks.

I not only cure all weak conditions promptly, but I employ the only treatment that can possibly cure such disorder permanently.
