Two BiT3 roK Consciesce Fund. Ira
Thornton. 2 Boundary avenue, has
squared all accounts with the Portland
streetcar company. In a letter addressed
to the railway company and delivered
yesterday Thornton remitted 25 cents In
stamps in payment of five rides he en
Joyed on the merry-go-round at The Oaks
tha company's amusement resort about
two years a;o and for which he did not
ray at the time. Judging from the letter.
Thornton apparently has become devout
ly religious and complains that he cannot
have any peace of mind until he has
reimbursed the railway company of what
his disturbed conscience has told him he
defrauded the corporation. The missive
accompanying the stamps was as follows:
'About two years ago I went to The
Oaks grounds and took about four or
five rides on the merry-go-round free of
charge. I stole the rides. I want for
giveness for It. The Lord God of Heaven
and earth saved my soul and I want to
make those things right what I made
wrong that God may have glory in my
life."
Transferred to High Service. A
number of districts on the East Side
have Just been transferred from the low
pressure water service to the high service
with good results. The Holladay-Irvlng-ton
district, where there had been water
shortage for a long- time, has been
changed to the high service; also the high
district on Hawthorne avenue at East
Twenty-eighth street, where the low
gervicu did not furnish sufficient water.
There are some other places where this
cannot be done, such as Mayor Gates
Addition beyond East Twenty-eighth
street. Wastage of water continues In
all directions. A count made within a
radius of a few blocks on the East Side
at midnight disclosed 19 streams of water
running full force. In numerous dis
tricts the came sort of wastage Is going
on every night. The upper reservoir,
which holds 16.000.000 gallons of water,
drops down rapidly every evening when
Irrigation begins. So great is the draw
from this reservoir that by watching
closely the water can be seen to recede.
Recovers From Smalxjox. Rev. A. A.
"Winter, pastor of the First United
Evargellcal Church. East Tenth and
Sherman streets, who has been ill of
smallpox, has returned home from the De
tention Hospital, having fully re
covered. His wife and child have had a
very mild attack of the disease. The
family will be quarantined for about ten
days longer. Rev. Mr. Winter probably
contracted the disease at the home of
A. L. Keenan, where he went with 12
members of the Sunday school board one
evening. It turned out that Mr. Keenan's
little son had a slight attack, so Biigni
that the nature of the illness was not
recognised. None of the others con
tracted the diseafs?. Of the many who
called to see Rev. Mr. Winter only Pro
fessor D. M. Metiger. of Dallas College,
was infected, and he is now at the De
tention Hospital suffering from a mild
attack.
Investigating Fire. Deputy District
Attorney J. J. Fitxgerald has Instituted
an investigation into the circumstances
surrounding the fire which occurred a few
night ago at Creston, a small point Just
outside the city limits on the Mount
Bcott carllne in which four stories were
destroyed and damages incurred to the
amount of JSrtiO. Several subpenas were
served yesterday on people residing in
the vicinity who are supposed to have
witnessed suspicious actions on the part
of some of the Ore victims both before
and after the flames were started. The
belief thai the fire was of Incendiary
origin is openly voiced by a large number
of Creston people, and it Is shared by
Mr. Fitzgerald and others who have
looked Into the affair. Unpleasant charges
are heard against a certain firm. No
official action has been taken as yet In
the District Attorney's office in the case.
Funeral, or Jacob G roc e. The funeral
of Jacob Groce, who died at his home in
Sell wood. August 4. was held yesterday
afternoon from Hemstock's Chapel, Bast
Thirteenth street and Umatilla avenue.
Interment was In Multnomah Cemetery.
Rev. Lewis F. Smith conducted the serv
ices. Mr. Groce was born In Pennsyl
vania SS years ago, came to Oregon in
J, and had lived in Sellwood 23 years,
where he was well respected by all who
knew him. He is survived by his widow
with whom he had lived for 61 years.
The following children survive: Mrs.
Harry 9. Upham. Mrs. Mary J. Freeman:
John, Benton, clement, Amos and Ernest
Groce. of Portland.
Completing Another Bio Fill- The
fill on East Alder street, between East
Water and Grand avenue, four blocks and
the intersections, Is practically completed.
This fill was mado mainly by dump
wagons and with dirt from the basement
of buildings on both sides of the river.
From the basement of the proposed
Homeopathic Hospital at East Second
and Hassalo streets several thousand
cubic yards of material were used in
East Alder street. As the lowlands
through which East Alder runs is solid
ground there has been little or. settling.
The embankment Is 1000 feet long.

MAY INCREASE DUES TO $4
Members of Portland Commercial
Club Asked to Give Views.
Members of the Portland Commer
cial Club have been requested by the
board of governors for an expression
of their views with regard to the ad
visability of increasing the monthly
dues from $2.50 to 4.
In the circular which has Just been
Issued by the board of governors, atten
tion la called to the fact that dues in
similar clubs throughout the country
are 5 per month. The management,
however, believes that the needs of the
club can be met by making the monthly
dues 4. owing to the club's large mem
bership, which Is now In the neighbor
hood of 1400. The proposed increase,
as stated In the circular, is rendered
advisable by reason of the fact that the
expense of furnishing the new quarters
ha been heavier than was expected.
Comparatively few of the club mem
bers took any part In the financing of
the building. The few who subscribed
for bonds were called upon to assume

WANT
BRIDGE
South Portland Residents Se
lect New Site.
FAVOR SHERMAN STREET
Crossing In North End Is Also
Under Consideration and Choice
May Depend on Report of
Engineer Modjeskl.
South Portland people are circulating
a petition for a high bridge across the
Willamette River at Sherman street, or
some point near that thoroughfare, and
they intend soon to hold a mass meeting,
at which the matter will be publicly dis
cussed. Councilman Cottel and Thomas
Gulnean, as well as many others, are In
terested In the project, and It is said
the whole southern section of the city Is
favorable to the plan.
This new project appears to be In direct
opposition to the proposed high bridge
across the Willamette River at a point
Just north of the Alblna Ferry-slip. In
North Portland. The latter was started
by the residents of North East Side sec
tion, and was Introduced before the City
Council by Councilman Menefee, three
months ago. at which time the Council
appropriated J5000 to pay Ralph Modjeskl,
an expert engineer, to make a report. He
Is to report on the feasibility and prac
ticability of a high bridge over and a
tube under the river.
City Engineer Taylor said yesterday
that Modjeskl should have his report in
before long, although the project Is a
big one, requiring great care. As the
two projects must be considered. It may
take a month or so yet. It is said. Mr.
Modjeskl secured data for the work be
fore leaving for Chicago, when the con
tract was first entered into by the city.
Great interest centers In his report, as It
Is thought probable that. If the city de
cides to take any action towards either
one of the projects. It will follow his
recommendations. Thus, If he favors a
high bridge. It will probably be the
choice of the people; If he says a tube
Is best, that will likely be adopted, in
case anything is done.
The North Portland high bridge would
Involve many problems, one of which Is
the matter of navigation and another the
fact that the bridge would have to run
far back into the residence sections at
both approaches.
"The people of South Portland want a
high bridge, and if it is built at Sher
man street or near there, the high banks
on either side of the river will do away
with the necessity of running it back far
and will materially reduce the expense,"
said Councilman Cottel. "Another thing
to be considered Is that, with the bridge
at that point, navigation would not be
Impeded, as it will, if the bridge is put
at the point suggested in North Portland.
We are going at this business with a de
termination to win, end we believe the
people will vote us a bridge In South
Portland."
REALTY ON SOUND BASIS
Outside Investor Pleased With Pur
chase In Portland.
'The minute Eastern people learn of
the matchless opportunities for Invest
ment In Portland, they will begin to
pour their capital Into this commun
ity." declared Phil K. Gordon, of San
Francisco, Pacific Coast passenger
agent of the Washington-Sunset
Route, yesterday. "There are wonder
ful opportunities for profitable invest
ment in your city and the valuations
are sane and conservative. I read of
the sale of property at Sixth and
Washington streets the other day for
$250,000. Equipped with a modern
building that property should net its
owner a monthy Income of probably
$5000, or 6 per cent Interest on an in
vestment of $1,000,000. Property In
Portland at such values is unmistaka
bly an attractive and desirable Invest
ment." Mr. Gordon knows what he Is talk
ing about, for he Is interested person
ally in business here. He is the owner
AMAZING FEAT BY SIRRONJE,
VAUDEVILLE HANDCUFF QUEEN
Shaekled and Placed In Goods Box Which Is Nailed Tight and Bound fcy
Experts, She Escapes in 21 Minutes. x
BT ARTHUR A. GREENE.
IT IS not often that a vaudeville act
Is of sufficient importance to war
rant more than passing notice, but
the performances of the young woman
who calls herself Sirronje, who Is ap
pearing at the Grand this week, are
of such a mystifying character as to
single her out for distinction from
among the thousands who make their
living by entertaining the public wljh
"turns."
Sirronje, who Is in private life Mrs.
William Norris, is advertised as "the
Handcuff Queen" or something equally
regal, and her specialty Is to do all
kinds of seemingly Impossible stunts
with shackles and handcuffs. The
town has been scoured this week for
wrist and leg irons which might defy
her cunning, but -she has invariably
had the laugh on the peace officers and
others who have been Interested suf
ficiently to fit them on her at her daily
performances.
Her star trick, however, Js to extri
cate herself from a locked and bound
trunk, after being thoroughly bound
before she is placed inside. Last night
something unusually startling was
billed and the Grand was packed with
Doubting Thomases. A committee of
expert packers from the Meier & Frank
store, who had no possible Interest In
the affair except to pit their skill
against hers, was engaged. The pack
ers brought a heavy dry goods box to
the theater, the box being of the com
mon or garden variety, made of Inch
boards, securely bound with strap
iron bands over the Joints. The box
was thoroughly examined by disinter
ested persons and then the top was
removed by the packers.
Sirronje was then handcuffed' and
placed inside. The box was so small
that she was compelled to sit in a
cramped and painful position, but she
- ...-AmA' o nH made no c n m n 1 rt 1 n t
WUB - -
The men then proceeded to nail down
the Ud. Apparently each of them tried
to outdo the other in driving 10 and
16-penny nails into that case. Not
content with the lid. they renailed the
four sides of the box until it seemed
that nothing short of a stick of dyna
mite could force it open. Then the
strap iron was nailed securely and coll
after coil of rope bound around the
box and drawn as tight as brawny
men could tie the knots.
Sirronje and the box were then
placed In the cabinet and the orchestra
started playing an endless tune.
Those of us who were "In back" with
in a few feet of the cabinet began to
get nervous after ten minutes had

INJURY KEEPS HIM FROM
POSTMASTERS' CONVEXTIOX.
passed without a sign from the im
prisoned woman. Her husband, who
Is also her manager, began to fidget
and was noticeably worried. He told
me afterward he was mortally afraid
she would faint In the intense heat of
her narrow prison. More minutes
passed and he told a funny story to
keep the audience patient and to steady
his own nerves. Nineteen minutes
passed and we were doing a little quiet
betting that she would never make ij
and Mr. Norris began to hedge with
the audience by admitting the possi
bility of defeat.
After 21 minutes there was a sudden
stirring of the curtains and an Instant
later Sirronje, completely exhausted and
on the point of collapse, was helped from
the top of the box where she was dis
covered sitting when the curtains were
parted. The box was then thoroughly
examined by the committee and found to
be intact. Every nail In place and every
coil of rope Identically as they had left it.
Those who had seen all the cabinet
tricks of Herman and all the other mod
ern wizards were completely stumped.
Some trick had a part In It, of course,
for no human being could have forced
that box open from the Inside by sheer
strength, and Sirronje doesn't weigh more
than 110 pounds. She has performed the
trick all over the country, but admitted
to me after it was over that she had
never been quite so severely tested be
fore. It was nothing short of amazing
to the layman, and the men who fastened
up the packing-case were the most mysti
fied of all.
Sirronje Is a delicate little woman, ap
parently in her early 20s. She Is any
thing but the type of woman one would
expect to see doing a thing of that sort.
She has been giving these exhibitions
professionally for three years, having for
some time before that confined her ex
periments to the entertainment of her
friends. She has an uncle who Is Inspec
tor of police In Chicago, and through
him her interest in trifling with manacles
was first aroused. She is a woman of
education and refinement, and her speech
is entirely free from vaudeville patois.
She is not In the business because she
particularly loves It. nor for her health,
but receives a decidedly princely stipend
Physically Sirronje Is not strong enough
to knock a baseball from home plate to
the Ditcher's box. but If by any chance
she should ever be imprisoned in our
forbidding old city prison she would proo
ably push the side of the building over
into the street and after carefully push
ing it back again make good her escape.
She Is a trickster of course, making no
claims to anything more supernatural
than an appetite for ice cream sundaes,
but she is a puzzle and ao mistake.
Fulton and Ellis, However, Will
Probably Speak at Sessions Which
Open This Morning.
A serious disappointment Is in store for
the delegates to the Presidential Postmas
ters' Association which will begin Its
first annual convention In the rooms of
the Portland Commercial Club at 10
o'clock this morning. It will be the an
nouncement that E. T. Bushnell, chief
clerk of the Bureau of the First Assistant
Postmaster-General, will not be able to
attend and deliver an address on "The
Postal Savings Bank." Postmaster Jt W.
Minto, president of the association, was
yesterday notified that Mr. Bushnell was
in a hospital at Butte, Mont., having been
thrown out of an automobile Wednesday
night and sustained a broken leg.
In the absence of Mr. Bushnell, however,
his places on the programme may possibly
be supplied by talks by Senator Charles
W. Fulton and Congressman W. R. Ellis,
who have written Mr. Minto that they will
probably be present. There is every In
dication of a good attendance at the two
days' conference by the 39 Presidential
Postmasters of the state. ' Several of
these Postmasters from a considerable dis
tance reached Portland yesterday. In
cluded among them were: J. R. Casey, of
Ashland; E. Miller, of Lakeview, and A.
M. Woodford, of Medford. B. W. John
son, of Corvallis, secretary of the Associa
tion, also arrived yesterday to assist Mr.
Minto in completing final arrangements
for the convention.
The visiting officials from the Postmaster-General's
department, officers of the
Oregon Association and a few friends,
including Senator Fulton and Congress
man Ellis will be the guests of Mr. Minto
at luncheon this noon at fhe Portland
Commercial Club.
The session of the convention this morn
ing will be devoted to the preliminary
work of. arranging the details of the con
vention which will be convened In earnest
at J:30 o'clock this afternoon. In addition
to the address of welcome by Tom Rich
ardson, manager of the Commercial Club,
and the response by Postmaster T. P.
Randall, of Oregon City, the programme
for the afternoon will include an address,
"Postoffice Management," by Ed. Hos
tetler, of The Dalles. Another speaker
will be R. B. Mundelle, of Indiana, who
represents the Bureau or the Third As
sistant Postmaster-General.

VIEWS WIN CONVENTIONS
Attractive Oregon Scenes Will Be
Shown Insurance Man.
On several occasions the series of
Columbia River views, owned and em
ployed by the Harrlman lines for pub
licity purposes, has proved a potent
factor in determining the choice of
Pacific Coast cities for convention pur
poses. They were recently exhibited at
the National convention of the grocers
with the result that Portland was selec
ted as the place for holding the 1909
convention. Later they were shown
to the delegates at the convention of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians and
again their mute persuasiveness con
quered and the Hibernians voted to
come to this city with taeir convention
next year.
The same set of pictures has now

been forwarded to Des Moines, Iowa,
where they will be displayed at the
National convention of Fire Insurance
Agents, which meets In that city Au
gust 11 for a three days' session. An
effort will be made by the delegates
from this state to secure the 1909 con
vention for Portland and they could
think of no. stronger argument in sup
port of their Invitation than the mere
exhibition of these splendid views.
