No Compromise is Siqht. Nothwlth-
aiandine the determination of the prop
erty-owners on East Taylor street to
resist payment of the assessment for the
improvement between Thirty-fourth ana
Myrtle avenue, a distance of 11 oiocks.
Contractors Joplin & Giesbisch have been
mittine sxavel on the top of the crushed
rock and rolling it down. The amount of
the contract :s 121.000. The assessment
for the work is as hifrh as It would be for
a hard-surface pavement, and the prop
erty-owners have figured out that the sum
total of the assessments is above the $21.
000 contract price. They have arrived at
this conclusion by taking; the figures from
the assessment cards sent out. The property-owners
seem nearly unanimous in
their Intentions to resist payment of their
assessments on the jrround that the im
provement is not what they slRned for.
and are generally sifrnins; up an agree
ment to pay their portion of the cost of
litigation. Ralph R. JJunlway has been
employed and is now looking into the
case before announcing how he will at
tack the assessment. He Informed, the
property-owners they have a good case.
There ones not seem to be any compro
mise In sight at present.
Clubs Will Discuss Parks. The Sell-
wood Board of Trade will hold a special
meetinsr tonight in Strahlman's hall to
discuss the park question. The Board will
insist on a tract on the Willamette River
at 9ellwood being selected for a park.
The Mount Tabor Improvement Associa
tion will meet tonight in Woodman hall
on West avenue, and also will consider
the park question. In Alblna the North
Albina Improvement Club meets tonight
in the engine-house on Albina. avenue. The
main subject for consideration will be the
Des Moines plan of municipal govern
ment, but the club will consider the park
topic also. Tuesday right the United
East Side Push Clubs will meet In the
Sargent Hotel and will make parks the
principal topic. Mayor Lane will either
Attend In person or will be represented
by a. member of the Park Commission
who will explain the plans for parks.
This is the one question that Is upper
most on the East Side at present.
Woman Tcrxs in False Alarm. Desire
to see the horses and lire engines speed
ing along the street is believed to have
caused an unknown woman to turn In a
false alarm of tire at 3 o'clock yesterday
afternoon. At any rate, officials of the
department are endeavoring to ascertain
the Identity of a woman who turned In
an alarm from Fifth and Sheridan streets.
She called the department by telephone
and excitedly notified the operator that
her home at Fifth and Sheridan streets
was on fire. An engine and ladder com
pany wero hurried to the scene, but
searched vainly for the Are. After a
futile search for the blaie. the companies
returned to their stations. Department
ofScials visited the neighborhood later In
the afternoon and made numerous in
quiries In an effort to find the woman.
No trace of her was discovered.
To Replank East Morriso.v. East
Morrison ctreet will be replanked between
I'nlon avenue and) the bridge. It was de
sired to have the street paved with
Belgian blocks on a concrete foundation,
but City Engineer Taylor said that the
embankment had not settled sufficiently
to warrant the laying of permanent pave
ment. The bridge timbers left In the
embankment will have to be removed be
fore a hard-surface pavement can be laid.
These timbers were part of the old
elevated roadway and the City Engineer
says they must come out. By laying plank
now within two years the embankment
will have settled enough to permit a per
manent pavement. Then the timbers will
be pulled out. the .street filled up to grade
and paved as the property-owners may
tiesire.
Farmhouse Destroyed. Passengers on
the electric train that left Estacada yes
terday at 6:15 P. M. report that when the
cars passed Deep Creek Junction a large
farmhouse located near the track was
burning. The train carried about 300 pas
sengers, but since the house was wholly
enveloped in flames and was obviously
beyond hope of saving, the cars were not
stopped. Deep Creek Junction is about
a mile south of Barton, in Clackamas
County. The house destroyed was the
oniy one there with the exception of two
small buildings owned by the railroad
company.
ERECTrsa Frame or Bridge. The Pa
cific Bridse Works is now erecting the
steel frame of the Union-avenue bridge
across Sullivan's Gulch, and the bridge
will be completed and opened to the pub
lic by October 1. Streetcars will then re
sume their former route in both directions
over the Burnslde bridge. The iron parts
for this bridge are piled up on Union ave
nue and are marked, "Made in Oregon."

KEEP OFF FRONT OF CARS
New Restriction for Passengers
on Portland Street Railway.
Beginning this morning passengers on
Portland streetcars will be prohibited
from riding on the front platform of
any car except the long vestibule, three
compartment cars. The new rule will
be rigidly enforced, according to Super
intendent Cooper.
Mr. Cooper says that the rule was de
cided upon because of numerous and
frequent complaints by women who were
forced to crowd through the front plat
form to gain entrance to the cars. It
has been especially annoying to women,
it is said, since the near-side stopping
rule has been In operation.
"The rule will go into effect Monday
morning." said Superintendent Cooper
yesterday. "It is merely that all pas
sengers will be prohibited from riding
on the front platform. There have been
so many complaints from women since
the near-side stops have been made that
we were forced to make this decision."
Smoking will be permitted on the rear
platforms of all cars, said Mr. Cooper.

Accident Is Laid to Reckless Driv
ing by "Lucky Jack" Peterson,
Who, With Companion, Is
Pinned Under the Machine,
John Rath, of 631 Flanders street, was
seriously injured early yesterday after
noon in an automobile collision at Seven
teenth and Northrup streets. Rath was
riding in a big Thomas Flyer, owned by
Jack Harrison and which was struck by
another heavy car, a Packard, owned and
driven by John H. Peterson, better known
as "Lucky Jack." Peterson was accom
panied by . four friends, and with Rath
was Harrison, the owner, Harry Sandys
and Charles Rooney, the chauffeur. Rath
was the only one injured.
When the machines struck. Rath was
thrown violently to the street. On ex
amination it was found that his collar
bone and two ribs were broken. He was
taken to his home, where he was at
tended by Dr. A. E. Rockey.
Peterson's car turned completely over,
pinning beneath It the owner, who was
driving, and one of his companions. The
others succeeded In Jumping before the
machine turned turtle. The car was
righted quickly and much to the surprise
of the rescuers it was found that the two
men underneath were only slightly
bruised, and would suffer no 111 effects
from their experience.
Peterson and his companions entered the
machine and drove away, despite the
smashing of the upper works of the car
as well as the breaking of the steering
wheel. After exchanging their car for
another one at the garage of H. L Keats
& Co., the men eet off on a trip into the
country. The names of Peterson's com
panions were not learned.
Drives at Reckless Rate.
From eye-witnesses and Chauffeur Roo
ney it was learned that Peterson was
driving his machine at a reckless speed
south on Seventeenth street. Harrison's
automobile driven by Rooney was pro
ceeding east on Johnson street when the
machines came together. If Peterson
had maintained his proper position In the
road. Instead of starting west Into John
son street, and then reversing and con
tinuing in his original direction, the ac
cident would have been averted, accord
ing to Rooney and several bystanders.
Rooney said that he had slowed down
at Seventeenth street, because Mr. San
dys desired to alight at the corner. Just
as Peterson turned his machine into John
son street. Rooney opened his throttle to
pass in the rear of the other car, but
Peterson's sudden reversal brought Roo
ney's car In contact with the forward
right axle of Peterson's car, and the lat
ter vehicle was thrown completely over.
Both forward springs of Rooney's car
were broken, the headlights demolished
and the frame on the right side
cracked. Rooney and his passen
gers assisted In righting the Peterson
car to extricate Peterson and his compan
ion. As soon as the Peterson car rested
on Its four wheels, the owner Jumped in,
and followed by his companions, drove
off to the garage where they secured a
second car and continued their spin as
though nothing had happened. At the
Keats garage it was learned that a slight
limp was the only sign shown by Peter
son that he had been In a wreck, while
none of his companions, aside from dusty
clothing, showed any evidence of the try-

Ing experience. No women were among
the passengers in either car.
Has Many Xarow Escapes.
Mr. Peterson has been through more ac
cidents in the short time he has been a
disciple of the "chug wagon," than pos
sibly any other driver In Portland. He
seems to delight in demonstrating how
fast he can run his big machine, and also
how close he can come to obstacles with
out touching them.
Saturday night Peterson conveyed a
party of friends to the Twelve-Mile House
and the Journey was made In such a reck
less manner that one of Peterson's guests.
W. Riley, refused to return in the same
car. He returned to the city on the
Gresham electric line.
A number of prominent autolsts have
frequently remonstrated with Peterson be
cause of his habit of stopping his machine
on any portion of the road that suits him
with no regard for other vehicles travel
ing along the same thoroughfare. In a
number of Instances it is said that Peter
son's car has been encountered on the
Base Line and other roads with no lights
burning, and collisions with his car have
been narrowly averted on several occa
sions. Illustrative of Peterson's characteristic
impetuousness is a story related of him,
which is vouched for as absolutely truth
ful. One night he was in the society of
several convivial spirits when he suddenly
decided that he had an engagement at
Claremont Tavern. Rushing out to his
machine he informed the chauffeur that
he must be at Claremont Tavern at 9
o'clock. The driver looked at his watch
which registered 8:67 and Informed Peter
son that he could not make the distance
In three minutes, whereupon Peterson re
plied that if the driver was afraid to
"open her up" he would do It himself.
The trip to Claremont was made, but not
In the allotted three minutes. It is re
ported, however, that Peterson made the
trip to Claremont in less than eight min
utes. Lover of Fast Driving.
Before taking up autoing Peterson was
an enthusiastic lover of fast horses, and
at one time owned a team tnat v.a4Jie
equal of anything in the Northwest.
Many of his acquaintances recall some of
his reckless feats while guiding these
high bred and fractious animals to
little buggy. On one occasion, while drlv-
a single rig. he became incensed at the
proprietor of a saloon on Fifth street, and
threatened to drive his outfit into the
place. He was dissuaded from carrying
out his threat only by the intervention
of some of his friends.
Peterson has not only been lucky In
eluding death but has enjoyed a unique
career in a financial way. Several realty
purchases of his have turned out most
profitable after others Interested in tne
same properties had lost heavily on their
Investments, while ma teat or raising tne
steamship George W. Elder off the rocks
near Goble after the vessel had remained
submerged for nearly two years is still
fresh in the memory of Portland people.

LIFTS 110 WITH TEETH
GERMAN SAMSON WITH THE
BARXl'M & BAILEY CIRCUS.
BY GEORGE H. HIMES.
r. ATURDAY was a red-letter day in
the history of Oswego Grange. No.
175. Patrons of Husbandry. In ad
dition to a good turnout of Its own mem
bers. J. J. Johnson, state lecturer of the
order; Oscar Eaton, state chaplain; Mrs,
Marv a. Howard, state secretary, and a
goodly number of visitors from Lents,
Woodlawn, Winona (Tualatin), Mllwa'
ukie, Sherwood and Arleta Granges were
present. The monthly routine business
was disposed of, and then the occasion
of the large gathering was revealed the
celebration of the S8th birthday of Chap
lain Eaton. After a sumptuous dinner,
the meeting was thrown open to the pub
lic, and a number of Mr. Eaton's old
friends, not members of the Grange, were
admitted to the hall, and all united in
extending heartfelt congratulations to the
cheerful old veteran of four-score and
eight years.
The programme was wholly informal
and under the direction of Mrs. Helen
M. Ewlng. lecturer. In the beginning Mr.
Eaton was escorted the length of the
hall, amid the clapping of hands, where
he was seated upon a chair draped with
"Old Glory." near a table adorned with
flowers, and a handsome birthday cake,
suitably Inscribed, following which a
Grange song, written by Mr. Eaton sev
eral years ago. was sung to the tune of
"America." He then recited a brief orig
inal poem, descriptive of his life experi
ence. Then followed brief congratula
tory remarks by Rev. R. E. Jones and
Rev. D. B. Gray, both of whom had
know Mr. Eaton since his arrival In Ore
gon in 1871.
Joseph Dobbins. Mrs. Tingle and Mr.
Allen, all of whom knew Mr. Eaton in
Grand Traverse County. Michigan, more
than 60 years ago, followed with remi
niscences of those days, which were In
turn amusing. Instructive and pathetic
Vocal music followed, by Misses Eliza
beth and Ruth Stevenson, great-granddaughters
of "Uncle" John Stevenson, a
well-known pioneer of 1853. a subscriber
to The Oregonlan from the time he came
to Oregon until his death, although, since
he came from Virginia, he never agreed
with it politically. His attachment, how
ever, for the paper, came about as a re
sult of his warm and lifelong friendship I
for a young gentleman, a printer, who
came with him across the plains, who
soon after arrival found employment in
the office, and later on became proprietor
of The Oregonlan and today is its man
ager. Instrumental music, both violin and
piano, was provided by the Dickinson
brothers. George H. Himes being called
for. responded briefly by comparing the
population of the Nation and the princi
pal cities in 1820 with that of the present
day. State Lecturer Johnson. Mrs. How
ard, state secretary; Mrs. Hattle L. Vail.
Mrs. J. Casto, Mrs. Gage, and a number
of others followed all giving strong em
phasis to the value of a life long spent in
doing good to others.
In Oregon there is probably no man
who commands more universal respect as
a good citizen and in every sense than
Chaplain Oscar Eaton. His presence In
any gathering Is a benediction. Although
old as measured by years, he Is still as
young In spirit as ever. He was bom In
Chautauqua County, New York, August
8, 1820, on a farm, and lived there until
1850, when he removed to Grand Trav
erse County. Michigan, where he acquired
a quarter section of timber land and
cleared up about 30 acres for a farm. On
August 15. 1862, he enlisted In the Twenty-sixth
Michigan Infantry, and served
through the Civil War with credit. He
was in the Second Army Corps, com
manded by General WInfield S. Hancock,
and his brigade commander was General
Nelson A. Miles. He was In many en
gagements that were particularly trying,
among them the Wilderness, Spottsylva
nla Courthouse. Cold Harbor and Peters
burg. He was discharged from service
in June, 1865, and at once returned to
his farm.
In 1871. getting tired of the cold Win
ters of Michigan. Mr. Eaton came' to
Oregon, and first settled at Forest Grove.
In 1880 he removed to the vicinity of
Oswego, where he has made his home up
to the present time. His first vote was
cast for Henry Clay In 1844, and he has
voted for every Whig and Republican
candidate for the Presidency since.
Chaplain Eaton Joined Oswego Grange
25 years ago, and has been a bright and
shining light In its membership ever since,
exemplifying in his upright life every ob
ligation he assumed. He has been an
officer of the subordinate and State
Grange many years, wholly unsought, and
has performed every duty with conspic
uous fidelity.
Modern Giant Lives on Vegetable
Diet Other Feature Attrac
tions With Great Show.
A man who lifts an automobile, and
occupants, with his teeth Is displaying
his prowess as a Samson with the Bar
num & Bailey greatest show on earth.
His name is Dohn, he comes from the
Black Forest of Germany, and he can
bend a railroad spike with his hands.
He lives entirely on a vegetable diet,
and to this habit he attributes his
great strength.
The Imperial Viennese, 10 in number,
present a spectacular aerial specialty
different from those of the past and
of vastly more interest. Other aerial
lsts are the five Fishers, the Urma sis
ters, Reno and Begar. Adair and Dahn,
Nettle Carroll, the four Navarros, Jo
seph Le Rex, the great Sylo, Alberta
and Alexander Brlsson. With two ex
ceptions, these acts are seen for the
first time in America.
A great acrobatic riding act is that of
the three Fredlanis, who somersault
from each other's shoulders while
standing on the backs of horses. The
equestrian acts are a strong feature on
the bill, in them being concerned such
famous artists as Miss Stickney. Miss
Huettermann, Julia Shlpp. Robert
Stickney, Jr., the Meers sisters, Vic
toria Davenport, William Melrose, Fred
Derrick and Orrln Davenport, the last
three being somersault riders.
The great Pacheco family, the Dollar
troupe, the Florenz troupe, Les Jardys
and the three Newsomes are numbered
among the more important of the acro
bats. These are all Europeans. Varied
equllibrlstlc acts new to America are
presented by the four Fassios, the Ylle
rom sisters. Mrs. Lowando, A. Gi Low
ando and a troupe of Japs Just from the
Mikado's court. The four greatest
trained animal specialties before the
public anywhere are presented by Mary
and Petrof's ponies, dogs and donkeys,
the clown dogs and monkeys of the
three Menstines, Professor Wormwood's
trained bears, doge and ant-eaters and.
Le Clown Moustier. There are several
other great features of this kind, all
new in conception.
The show abounds in comedy. Be
sides an army of the funniest of buf
foons and Jesters, laugh-compelling
burlesque acts are presented by the Le
Vans. Vincent Klralfe and the Hardig
brothers. The sensational climax of
this excellent new bill Is found in the
terrorizing double automobile somersault.
It Is an all-new show that Is offered
this season, In equipment as well as In
the make-up of Its performers. The
parade again Is in its customary place.
which adds much interest to the coming I
of the greatest on earth.
