The strange disappearance of Samuel Esteb. s well-to-do contractor, residing at 139 Walnut street. Reservoir Park, Arleta. who has been missing since Saturday, Is a aource of considerable worrlment to his family and friends. Saturday. Esteb visited the Hlbernla Savings Bank, at Second and Wash-, tngton streets, where he deposited the sum of 20o. and withdrew 78.50. ap parently to pay some bill. As far as known, that wis the last time he was seen by an acquaintance. Among some of his relatives and friends it is believed that he has been the victim of foul play. Becoming alarmed at his failure to arrive home Saturday, and after pass ing a miserable Sight Mrs. Esteb visited police' headquarters Sunday morning and reported the matter to Chief of Police Grltxmacher. who im mediately Issued an order to all offl- a" t : -j -.Sri t " Saruael Esteb. cers to be on the lookout for the missing man. Despite the efforts of the police not the slightest trace of the man has bensi found since he left the bank at roon Saturday. While the police are not willing to acknowledge that the man may have been foully dealt with. It Is said that some of the sleuths are at work on this theory, although nothing definite can be ac complished along this line unless the body is found. Esteb was known as a man of good habits, and was not addicted to the habitual use of Intoxicants. He is de scribed as being 32 years of age, 165 pounds weight, and 6 feet 11 inches In height.

TO INSPEGT MILK Government Protection Want ed for Portland. BOARD OF HEALTH ASKS IT Dr. R. C. Yenney Named to Consult With Federal Officials to As certain' ir Their Aid Can Be Obtained. - t'nlted States Government Inspection of milk for Portland is the latest feature in the effort to secureaa purer milk supply. This is the solutioa of the problem as viewed by Dr. R. C. Yenney, member of the City Board of Health, and -expressed by him at the regular meeting of the Board yesterday morning. His suggestion was acted Upon. Mayor Lane appointing htm a committee of one to consult with the proper officials, to see if Federal inspection can be established, and if so. how it is to be inaugurated and maintained. Discussion on the subject was brought out by the report of Market Inspector Evans, who declared that something should be done at once to better the milk supply in Portland. She thought It would be wise to have one or two city in spectors, whose duty would be to inspect milk at the city limits. In such manner, she said, the supply could be regulated and much good accomplished toward th3 desired end She had made some Inspec tion and Inquiry In the various cream eries In the city, she reported, and had found evidence to Justify the statement that conditions as to milk are very bad. -One thing which makes it difficult to compel milkmen to be cleanly." said Mis. Evans, "is the fact that there Is a scarcity of the product, and they are very independent; any criticism by a con sumer results In the supply being shut off. but not bettered. It Is absolutely necessary that some action be taken by the city to have Inspection and to have "It rigidly maintained." Dr. Yenney said that. In his belief, it would be well to ask for Federal In spectors, and declared his belief that they can be secured. If the city will ac cept their standards of test. "The Government test Is pretty severe." explained Dr. Yenney. "but it is effect ive, and gets the results sought. If ws will allow the Inspectors to come and will stand by their tests, I believe the department will send them." Mayor Lane named Dr. Yenney as a committee of one to investigate and re port at the next session of the Board. The first reports of school Inspection and of the school nurse were submitted, showing that 24 schools have been in spected and that many cases of Illness and of various ailments were discovered and treated. SEVEN WOMEN ARRESTED Police Report Shows North End "Habitues Are Still Existing. . Seven arrests in 30 days of women diiven from the North End is the total shown by the October police report, returned yesterday. These seven arrests represent the month's work of 10 plain clothes men. especially provided by the Council at the Instance of Chief Gritz macher. The Chief, of course, says the women have mostly left the city. But that Is not true, so members of his own de partment soy. Large numbeis of them are living In apartment-houses, hoarding-houses and small hotels, and It Is said there is no evidence that any of them has been forced to pawn diamonds or finery to buy the necessaries of life. " The report shows that, during the month, there were 1184 arrests for minor offenses, the chief Items being 500 drunks. 120 gamblers. 25 thieves and 75 vagrants. There were 5 bur glaries and 112 cases of thfet reported during the month. Two of the bur glaries and 112 cases of theft reported cleared up. The patrol wagon made 467 runs, the Red Cross ambulance 23 runs. Fourteen accidents were report ed, and 17 injured persons were as sisted. At the Vaudeville Theaters Orplieum. BY NANCY LES. IF YOU are melancholy or peevish you will do well to see the Orpheum this week, for It Is undeniably a care-chaser. From a novelty standpoint the Musical Blacksmiths In a remarkably transforma tion act have by rights the stellar po sition on the bill. A completely equipped blacksmith's shop is nnst shown, which taxes the capacity of the stage with its necessary paraphernalia, a lighted fore, . anvils, bellows, wagon wheels and life sized wagon covers. In the sketch are two -men and a woman, attired in "smithy" clothes. They succeeded In making xylophonic music out of all the aforementioned articles. At the con clusion the curtain falls, and almost In stantaneously depicts a well appointed drawtng-room. the woman in a dinner gown at the piano, and the men in even ing clothes. The scene again shifts with lightning rapidity, and once more reverts to the blacksmith shop. The act Is Hermanesque in its mysticism. Welch. Mealy and Montrose in an as sortment of farcical fun give a mirth provoking performance called "Play Ball!" which serves to introduce some clever acrobatic work. Montrose, the comedian, is of etphantine proportions, with a contra-tenor speaking voice (how ever, assumed.) and la really funny. A couple of juvenile artists who an nounce themselves as the two Pucks give a series of character scngs with appro priate change of costume. Versatility is their principal asset, and the genuine Rheumatism is caused bv an excess of uric acid in the blood,- which gradually gets into the circulation because of indigestion, constipation, weak kidney action, and other irregularities of the system which are sometimes considered of no importance. This tiric acid causes an inflamed and irritated condition of the blood, and the circulation instead of nourishing the different portions of the body, continually deposits into the nerves, rnuscles, tissues and joints, the irritating, pain-producing acid with which it is filled.- Rheu matism can only be cured by a thorough cleansing of the blood, and this is just what S. S. S. does. It goes down into the circulation, and by neutral izing the uric acid and driving it from the blood, effectually and surely removes the cause. S. S. S. strengthens and invigorates the blood so that instead of a weak, sour stream, causing; pain and agony thoughout the sys tem, it becomes an invigorating, nourishing fluid, furnishing health and vigor to every part of the body and relieving the suffering- caused by this disease. S. S. S. being a purely vegetable blood purifier, is the surest and safest cure for Rheumatism in any of its forms. Book on Rheumatism and any medical advice desired sent free to all who write. . TEE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, GA. manner in which they enter into the spirit of their act Is noteworthy. Their imitation of the "Merry Widow" waltz to the accompaniment of Bowery clothes Is perhaps their best feature. The small girl. "Little Eva," appears in a poverty stricken costume,' which is a takeoff on the directorie gown, and which, unlike charity, uncovers a multitude oT sins. "Happy Millions." a character comedy plavlet. in which William Morrow and VeTa Schelberg play the conspicuous roles, is an interestir little sketch of frontier life, with musical Interpolations. Lew Hawkins, with an auld lang syne burnt cork reputation, gives a monologue replete with newness and humor, and shows clearly how he earned his cog nomen of "the Chesterfield of min strelsy." His witticisms on the mo mentous political question were received with enthusiasm. A generous portion of the applause fell to Raymond and Caverly. the German dialect comedians, who are well known throughout the country and who in variably bring many laughs by their en- tertainlng nonsense. "Winning a Queen." a spectacular fan tasy, has an inane plot but the scenic effects are on an elaborate scale, the last scene in particular, where the various In animate objects In a reception room as sume life being a thoroughly unique Illusion. Grand. THE tone of this week's offering at the Grand Is very well up to the high average that has recently been maintained. A number of exceptionally good acts make the present . bill more than usually attractive. Naturally, chief interest centers in the dashing woman dancer. Lind. billed as a dream of beauty from the Folles Berges. of Paris. She is as a matter of honest fact a stun ningly beautiful woman, and fully Jus tifies the extravagant expressions of the press agent. Her gowns are sure to at tract a great deal of feminine attention. "Billy's Girl." a pretty little playlet presented by Alice Mortlock and hercom pany. adds considerable to the interest of the performance. The little piece con cerns a case of mistaken identity, in volving a susceptible country girl and a well-known actress. A monologist who presents something different Is Tom Dempsey. whose jokes are new and fresh and who succeeds In holding his audience to the very last word of his act. The Romanoffs, sensational knifethrow ers. give a good exhibition, and the com edy acrobatic turn called "The Lazy Athlete" Is excellent. Other acts which please are "Just Married a Week." by Howley and Olcott, a comedy sketch, and Miss McKinney, the prima donna so prano. Puntages. A CONSIDERABLE portion of the en tertainment at Fantages this week takes on the form of a one-ring circus, which consists of Shepps' trained animal show. This aggregation Includes a num ber of educated dogs, ponies and mon keys. ' Although seen here before, this feature has been greatly strengthened and enlarged since its last visit and al though it made a big hit on the occa sion of Its former visit, will prove vast ly more popular this year. It Is really one of the very best acts of its kind that Is going the rounds. It Is especially in teresting and amusing to the younger generation. An extraordinarily good musical act is offered by Klein. Ott brothers and Nich olson, its principal virue lying in the fact that It possesses originality. A bright little comedy, playlet, "The Little Emigrant," Is presented by Lester & Miller. La Toy brothers, the acro bats, make a great deal out of their act and sustain a well-earned reputation. Another farce of more than usual merit Is rA Busv Manager." by Mr. and Mrs. Buckley. A new illustrated song singer, Harry Leahy, makes his cjebut and makes a gODd impresslson. Altogether the Pantages show Is quite worthy of generous patronage from the public. Grease, paint and professional supplies at Woodard. Clarke A Co.' , BLACKSMITH REAL SLEUTH How Creston Village Smithy Detect ed Boy Halloween Culprits. S. L. Hicks. who conducts the blacksmith shop at Creston, Or., would be an excellent acquisition to Port land's detective force, although he has no inclinations In that line. His work on Halloween was certainly as clever as any that has been reported of Mayor Lane's band of gum-shoe artists. Before he locked up his shop Hallo ween he took the precaution to lock up every thing about the shop that was loose. But there were so many things that he was unable to find room for a big wagon which he was forced to leave outside. He knew it would disappear, so he prepared for Its disappearance. He painted the wheels, tongue and bed of the wagon with three coats of red paint, and left it outside for the night. Next morning his fears as to Its disappearance were verified, for there was no wagon near the shop. He asked no questions, but waited. Since that time it develops that practically every boy in the neighbor hood is afflicted with a peculiar red stain on his hands which won't come off. Of course Mr. Hicks has seen many boys so afflicted, but he has not bothered the police station by asking, who stole his wagon. MAY HAVE CHEAPER RATES Committee Selected to Work Out Charges for Next Year. At a meeting of the Water Board yes terday morning. Mayor Lane appointed R. B. Lamson, Superintendent Dodge and Engineer Clark as a committee to fix a rate schedule for water in 1909. It is hoped that a reduction can be worked out, but the matter has not advanced far enough as yet to forecast the result. Mayor Lane, when asked if he expects a decrease In the rate, said it is impossible to say at this time. The committee will make its report within one month. By order of the Board. 3000 meters will be purchased, and will be Installed where meters are In use, a meter rate being charged. The meter rate and the flat rate will be so arranged as not to con- BHEUMAtlSM ir tnn urrn i incniPin'C ir I uu nccu a mtuiuiur., YOU- SHOULD HAVE THE BEST We ask you to consider the fact, that although there are hundreds of prepara tions advertised, there is only one that realry stands out pre-eminent as a remedy for diseases of the kidneys, liver and bladder. , Dr. Kilm-r's Swamp-Root stands the highest, for the reason that its remark able curative power has been proven in thousands of even the most distressing cases.

Mayor Lane and members oi the Board are of tne opinion that there will be a great saving of water for the city when meters are installed. It is also their belief that the meters will result in cheaper water for all consumers. I,t will teach every one to be more careful in the use of water, they assert. BETTING LIGHT ON RESULT Few Wagers ot Any Size Are Made by Portlanders. Probably less money has been placed on the result of today's election than in anv other Presidential contest In years. Betting had begun to assume active proportions yesterday just about the time t?ie clerk of a wasn-lnetou-street cigar sure was arrested for accepting election wager stakes. The largest Individual bet reported during the day was that of J1000 on general results. Because of the evident determination of the authorities to sup press this form of gambling, the names of the parties to the wager were not divulaed. During the day' numerous smaller bets were made on general results, the prevailing odds being two to one favor of Taft. Considerable money was also placed on the result In Oregon. Most of these bets were on a basis of 15.003 plurality for Taft with even money. Occasionally an admirer of Bryan succeeded In getting even money on a plurality of lO.OJO for the Re publican nominee. A few nominal bets were made that Taft would not carry the state by more than 5000 plurality. Herman Klaber, a Portland hopdeal er, is so firmly convinced that Taft will be elected today that he has bet more than $2130 on the result at odds of three, four and five to one. His biggest bet was J1200 againstN$400. put up by Julius Plncus, a Salem hop dealer, who took the Bryan end. At Tacoma Mr. Klaber found some easy money and bet $300 to $75. He made several bets with Portland hop men, among them being $400 to $110 and $100 to $29. i Berkeley After State Capital. BERKELEY, Cal., Nov. 2.

Glycerine, Kte., Used as a Simple Wonh. It really seems strange that so many people suffer year in and year out with eczema, when it Is now no longer a secret that oil of wintergreen mixed with thymol, glycerine, etc., makes a wash that is bound to curefc Old, obstinate cases, it is true, can not be cured in a few days, but there is absolutely no sufferer from eczema who ever used this simple wash and did not find immediately that wonder fully soothing, calm, cool sensation that comes when the itch is taken away. Instantly upon applying a few drops of the wash the remedy takes etject, the itch is allayed. There is no need of experiment the patient knows at once.
