of the Rosa City barber shop at 84 Sixth

port In his light with a non-union shop
m the same vicinity. T. M. Leabo, sec

Contractor Isensee Replies.
PORTLAND, July 13. (To the Editor.) I
oticed In this morning's Oregon Uj a letter
headed "Protection for Paasereby," and signed
A. J. C.
The general acceptance is, I believe, that a
peraoa who has not the courage to sign has
letter by hjs full name la either not sure
of what he writes about or is a coward.
The cae he refers to Interest me somewhat,
as I am the contractor for the work referred
to, and the contract reads that I am responsi
ble for ail claims for damages arising from
accidents caused through the construction and
erection of these nre-escapes.
I would call the attention of A. J. C. and
the public who read his letter to the fact that
I am fully aware of the fact that if th-ings
were as represented by A. J. C. and some
person should get crippled, that all the mone
tary recompense I Tuld make would not re
store him to his health, that, in fact, I would
take something from . him that I could not
Teplace.
The fact is that the sidewalk space under
neath the men bti been roped from six to
eight feet.
Again, does A J. C. realize that he indi
rectly slanders a good and efficient if I may
judge right, though I do not know his name)
police officer, who Is stationed at Fifth and
Washington streets, to protect the llvta and
limbs of the people, and would this man do
his duty If he would allow such things to go
on as A. J. C. describes them? I would ad
vise A. J. C. to be sure of his assertion be
fore tie goes Into print.

For more than a month Chief Gritz
macher has had a detachment of police
men scouting about the suburbs look
ing for Infractions of the law in ques
tion. The search was most prolific.
Five hundred or more infractions of

Seventy-five promises to cut weeds
and thistles were made and broken and
these, after being checked up were
listed by Captain of Police Moore and
submitted to City Attorney McNary for
complaints.

M. C. A. was notified early in June
that Block 104, Stephens addition, at
East Mill and Stephens streets, was
co.ered with weeds, thistles and tall
grass. Promise of immediate remedy
was given. The records show further
that the Y. M. C. A. has ever since
failed to make good Its promise with
the result that the arrest of a respon
sible representative of the Institution
is asked for.
Promises Made, Only to Be Broken.
The School Board owns Block 296

DETECTIVE TAKES TRAMP
Hawley Recovers Stolen Money After
15 -Mile Walk.
After a tramp covering nearly 15 miles
Detective Hawley yesterday afternoon
succeeded in locating $70 in cash, stolen
from Mrs. R. O. Gillihan. 34 North Six
teenth street, Sunday at Johnson's Creek,
and also gained a complete confession,
from two youths, Edgar Eckton, age 14,
and Antone Gross,- age 12, both residents
of Woodstock, who are accused of having
stolen the money.
Mrs. Gillihan with a woman companion
went or Sunday to Johnson's Creek, for
a picnic. While preparing lunch Mrs.
Gillihan s purse containing 170 in cash
and green backs and 1160 in checks dis
appeared. They reported their loss to the
police and Detective Hawley was put on
tne case.
Sunday night Mrs. Eckton, mother of
the Eckton boy, telephoned the police
that her son and a companion had found
$160 in checks and some money In green
backs on one or the trails leading to
Johnson's Creek. Hawley went out to the
Eckton home and had the two boys show
him where the money had been found.
The officer's suspicions were aroused by
the actions of the boys, and he accused
them of the crime. They emphatically
denied any further knowledge of the
affair. Later the officer again accused
them, threatening them with arrest. Tha
Gross boy becoming frightened, led Haw
ley to the spot where the purse was hid
den. The officer then demanded that
the boys produce the money. This had
been secreted by them in the yard of
the Eckton home. The boys will be held
under the surveillance of Detective Haw
ley until the Juvenile Court can take ac
tion, as they are both under trie age limit.
No Clew to Merlin Crime.
GRANTS PASS. Or., July 13. (Spe
cial.) The Sheriff returned today from
GaUce Creek, where he has been for
the last 48 hours scouting the country
and making investigation of the as
sault upon Emma Robinson, the school
teacher who barely escaped being mur
dered at the hands of some inhuman
fiend. A suspected clew was followed,
but without avail.
"Tbe Tide of Life" at
the Lyric
THE TIDE OF LIFE" is the title
1 of 1 the play that thoroughly
pleased a big audience at the Lyric last
night. It was presented by the Blunkall
Atwood Company which has established
an enthusiastic following in this city.
It is a play in four acts and is just
the kind that pleases Lyric audiences.
Scenically It is thrillingly presented and
in the way of plot it contains enough In
terest to hold the close attention of any
one. There is a strong element of comedy
throthout which mingles well with the
melodramatic scenes and keeps the audi
ence in a good humor with nearly every
one excet the villain.
As Tom Daly, an ex-detective, Ervin
Blunkall is the central character of the
piece and he does an excellent character
ization of the part. Miss Lylllan Atwood,
as Nora O'Dowd, and impetuous and
charming Hibernian girl, appears to even
unusually good advantage and won a
warm place in the hearts of the audi
ence. There were other parts very well
taken.
The story has to do with a lawsuit over
the ossesslon of a mine in Pennsylvania.
There is a murder, and 'explosion, inter
esting complications, heroism and villainy,
and a charming love story. In the end
things turn out well for those who are
good, and bad for those who are wicked,
a very happy ending and the kind of one
the audience seemed to appreciate.
There was a large audience at last
night's performance and from the enthu
siasm it displayed there is little doubt
but that "The Tide of Life" will draw big
houses the rest of the week.
New Vaudeville Bill at
the Grand
T HIS week's bill at the Grand Is far
better than the average, although
there is no distinctively prominent fea
ture. The Riva-Larsen troupe of acro
bats Is the head-line feature, according to
the programme, but several other acts
won Just as much favor with the au
dience. However, this troupe of acrobats
is thoroughly high-class and aroused fre
quent applause. It is direct from Eng
land, according to the programme.
The grandiscope this week has a set
of thrilling pictures, showing an emi
grant train on Its weary way across the
plains. It is attacked by Indians and the
things that follow are indeed worth see
ing. Alexander and Scott, "From Virginia,"
made a hit with the audience. The fe
male impersonation is one of the very
best seen here. T. W. Eckert and Emma
Berg are a tenor and soprano of con
siderable skill in entertaining audiences.
Their musical fantasy. "The Land of the
Two Moons," was produced with their
own special scenery and effects.
Selbinl and Grovinl are also clever en
tertainers in their juggling, tumbling and
acrobatic act. They won the audience as
soon as they appeared and had it with
them during their entire turn.
The Apollo Quartet in "The Man Out
side," is a fairly good mingling of the
comical with the melodramatic. How
ever, the comedy part, of their turn is de
cidedly more popular with the audience
than the melodramatic. The quartet has
good voices.
Fred Bauer continues his popularity
with his illustrated song, "Dream On,
Sweetheart." Miss Anna Brigham, a
Portland girl, is probably unequaled as
a whistling artist.

APPEAL TO COMMISSION
Manufacturers Protest Against Ad
vance In Freight Rates.
NEW YORK. July 13. The Interstate
Commerce Commission will be appealed to
by the Manufacturers' Association of New
York in its fight to prevent the railroads
from making a 10 per cent Increase In
freight rates. The Interstate Commerce
Commission has no power to act until
the proposed increase really goes into ef
fect. Members of the Manufacturers' Asso
ciation, after reading Mr. Brown's reply
to the letter sent him by the association's
secretary, James T. Hoile, said that Mr.
Brown's answer, while lengthy, failed to
show adequate reasons why . the
shipper should be made to suffer because
the railroads are not making as much
money as they did in the past.
Secretary Hoile said:
"For many months the prayer of the
railroad managers, addressed to Wash"
ington, D. C, has been: 'Don't bother us
and let us alone." That Is now the prayer
of the shippers to the railroad managers.
It may be a fact that there should be a
10 per cent Increase. The time, however,
for that increase is not now."

bers. Go out tonight and see it.

enjoyed. It removes all stains and
roughness, prevents prickly heat and
chafing, and leaves the skin white,

a glow and exhilaration which no
common soap can equal, imparting
the vigor and life sensation of a
mild Turkish bath. All Grocers and
