FtuxT Men Before Court. William E. Clark and D. L. Anthony, corpulent trav eling men who fairly bubble over with mirth and good humor at all times, were in the Municipal Court yesterday morn ing", because of their efforts to do a lit tle street vaudeville a block from the Po lice Station early Tuesday night. Paw ing horses were greeted with loud calls of "whoa." and when a horse would stop the two nearly bursted with laughter. Tiring of thla they took to accosting parsers by, shoving their fingers out, de manding "hands up" and then inquiring "Where's the North End." This form of diversion seemed to please thera immense ly until they attempted to hait some ona whose seise of humor didn't harmonise with their prank and then Patrolman Wanless. who was called, turned their mirth to dull horror by arresting them on the substantial charge of disorderly con duct. Tallin to the Police Station they begged with tears in their eyes, but were made to put up Q0 apiece for their ap pearance in court. The Police Judge wasn't able to see that they had done anything worse than exhibit an Inordinate Jack of gJ breeding, so he let them off. Doctor's Acto Comflaixed Or. Dr. Herbert W. Hegele and his automobile were complained of to the police yester day and iater the issuance of an arrest warrant was asked for the doctor be cause of the habits of his auto. Em ployes of the street cleaning department were the aggrieved ones. Dr. Hegele has acquired a habit of leaving his machine against the curbing at Fourteenth and Morrison streets, it was complained. Often It is there over night. Work of street sweepers is hampered thereby. Several times drivers of sprinkling carts say they have been abused by the doctor for sprinkling his gasoline wagon, and the latest grievance cited against the doctor was that he rushed out and caught the relna of a sprinkling wagon team, directing the driver, in arduous language, that he must not sprinkle tha auto. Tha complaint was passed along to the City .Attorney's office, and Dr. Hegele was cailfd up and rotlf.ed that he must keep his machine off the street unless he wisher) to invite prosecution for obstruct ing a public highway. MissorRiAie Fears Japs There Is a resident of Kansas City, Mo., who wants to come to Oregon to settle, but who Is afraid the Japs will declare war and bombard Portland and he believes it is Mfer to stiy in Missouri. He has writ ton to Assistant Secretary Mossessohn, of the Chamber of Commerce, asking as to the attitude of the white and yellow races on this coast and what chance there Is for a war. "Is it likely that in tha evant of a war with Japan that nation would bombard Fortland?" he writes. Mr. Mosc-Esohn has written back that be cause of the fact that Portland is fcver 100 miles from the ocean and no war is anticipated, he does not fear that Japa nese shells will come hurling into the Rose City. Cam's ox Plaza: Arrested. While he was comfortably sleeping on the Plaaa block at 2:39 yesterday morning. Arthur Barnes, of Goldendale. Wash., was taken into custody and lodged In the County Jail.

D EG RAFF Caahler Will Pave Grakd Aventtb. Grand avenue is to be paved with asphalt be tween Sullivan's gulch and Broadway. It will be divided into two separate im provements. The first section extends from East Gllsan street to Holladay ave nue, the cost of which will be a little over $26,009, which is the estimate of the City Engineer. From there to Broadway the cost is estimated at $19,559. This end of the street is 60 feet wide, while the part between Holladay avenue and East Gllsan street is 70 feet wide. This improvement extends nearly to th end of Grand avenue at Hancock street, and is part of the general plan to pave all streets in Holladay Addition with hard surface material. The plan . to merge Grand avenue Into Union avenue at Han cock and widen Union avenue la at a standstill. CrTT Will Pat No Itterest. W. L. Boise said in his talk before the United East Side Push Clubs Tuesday night that when the commute from the East Side Improvement Association drew the initia tive enactment for a new Madison-street bridge it was provided that the street railway company would pay sufficient rental to take care of the Interest on $160,000. On the present bridge the street car company pays practically nothing, out according to the provisions for re building the company must pay not less than $1509 a month. This Is ten times what the company Is required to pay under its present contract with the city. The taxpayers will pay nothing in the way of interest on the bridge bonds, which will be a saving of about $18,000 a year. Sundat Observance Discussed. Rev. I P. Blanchard conducted the exercises of the Central W. C. T. U. yesterday in a veiy interesting manner.

MERCHANT8 TIRE OP DELAT.BuslnesS men on Bast Burnside street are growing Impatient over the delay In the comple tion of the Union-avenue bridge over Sullivan's gulch. They fear that the brldse will not be completed before the first of the year and want to see the work expedited K It can be done. The iron portion will probably be all up by October 1. or at least by the middle of that month The frame of the structure is now being put together, and it extenda from the south side about one-fourth of the distance across the gulch. Closing of Union avenue and routing the street cars one direction over Burnside bridge has been a hardship to business. Property Sold at Advance. In Janu ary. 107. W. M. Ladd et al. transferred to the Doernbecher Manufacturing Com pany eight acres of land bordering on Sullivan's gulch. In what was formerly part of the Terrence Quinn donation land grant, being in Section 36, Township 1. on the O. R. N. right of way.
