Fisher Saturday, appeared in the Justice Court at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon for arraignment. Shackled and In the custody of two offi cers Finch entered tho courtroom with an air of stolid Indifference. A live days' growth of beard adorned his fHce. imd dark rings beneath hia blood-shnt eyes, indicating the constant anxiety and fearful strain he has endured, aided to make his appearance unkempt. He nodded to many of his acquaintances, but few of them offered more than a inerp nod of recognition. Formal Complaint Js Head.

If it were true I could not stand before you this morning. If his man hood, bis clean, professional life among you men, without reference to the great future there was In store for him, were all there Is, I should not dare stand here today.

New Eills Open at the Vaudeville Houses Orpheuni. BT ARTHl'R A GREENE. ANY vaudoville bill that boasts four good arts Is worthy of Investigation and I take it you will be Interested to know that Junt that Is the case at the Orpheum this week. Ordinarily I am duly grateful If there are two brands1 worth saving from the roasting, but when there are four, well, that Is a good thing to ee. Acrobatic acts are not especially at tractive to me and It must be something extraordinary to make me sit up and hold my breath. That's what the Four Franklins did yesterday afternoon with that wonderful tumbling and casting act of theirs. They are on the Job With more different kinds of dare-devil, gravity-defying stunts than I could enumerate in a half column. The next most popular turn of the present bill seems- .to be Amy Stanley and her singing and dancing pickanin nies, most brightly and most particular ly the hit being scored by a certain chocolate-colored lad who promises to develop Into a second Bert Williams. This little unbleached American is a nat ural comedian. He possesses a surpris ingly big voice for a kid, which leads to the apli"ion that he is much older than Jie appears, but at all events he deserv?s the credit of being a proficient enter tainer. Miss Stanley herself uses a mute with her voice, which, like love, laughs at locksmiths, but she is attractive to look at and dances pretty well. Another of the Congo cherubs is funny, a thin shanked little girl who trips over her own feet and falls down most ludicrous ly. The act enumerated above Is the sec ond of the four good cards. Then also there Is Eva Taylor, or rather th.-re Is the diminutive farce comedy "Chums." a rattling little piece, played by Mtss Taylor and her three asso ciates. Louis Albion, Eleanor Pierson and Lawrence Grattan. Miss Taylor has the hlggest reputation and is beautiful as a Tom Moore heroine. She has acting abil ity of merit but is not materially auperlor- to the others. Mr. Grattan achieved much success In the recent Broadway hit, "The Witching Hour." and it Is a surprise to s?e him out here In vaudeville. Miss Taylor yesterday afternoon re ceived a telegram announcing the des'h of her brother In New Tork. The sad tidings reached her Just as she was atxnit to go on the stage, and while almost overcome by her grief, -she pluckily played her part and none In the audience suspected that anything was wrong. L-t of the quartet of acts extraordi nary Is "Mrs. Murphy's Second Hus band." which consists of bright lines 'and Gracl Emmett. Miss Emmett, who puld have been voting a number of years If the suffragettes had their way, has lost none of her keen appreciation of humor and continues to be a comedienne after the heart of those who are particular. Before it Is through the act degenerates somewnat into horseplay. Other brethren who participate are leo Donnelly, a mon ologulst, who missed his calling: Joe La Fleur and a little dog. Who compete with each "other for applause and work hard while so (Jolr.g, and Alexis and Schali, who are not so (food. The usual clear and In teresting motion pictures close the snow. Grand. FT I.KONE CASS PAER. A GREAT big bill Is on at the Grand this week,, one of the best that any vaudeville house has offered In a long time. There are two features that come In ncck-and-neck for first money. One Is Harry Luken's performing bears, and the other is Mile. Joyce Gray, who presents the first legitimate Salome act seen by Portland theater-goers. - Every kiddie, as well as the grown ups, will appreciate the performance of the bears. There are seven of them and the act goes on behind bars. One of the bears, a - magnificent black specimen, doe some particularly clever tricks, and there is a wee bruin of the Toddy type, who delights the children in the audience with his funny antics. Be sides a boxing bout, these bears tide bicy cles, ride and trundle baby carriages, dance, see-saw and finally all get glorious ly spiffed and the act ends with the or chestra playing "We Won't Go Home Till Morning." Mile. Joyce, who is really French and who has only recently arrived from the Alhambra Theater in London where she studied under the famlous Russl, pre sents a clean and somewhat novel original version of the much-cursed and discussed Salome's dance. She wears seven beauti ful scarfs, a few Jewels and a cloth-of-silver skirt the latter evidently a con cession to conventionality. During the temperamental and classic accompani ment which few of us understand, and which is only an accessory anyway, this slender, graceful Salome really dances a beautiful and weird dance, proceeding to discard ono by one the seven scarfs which Salome evidently considered superfluous clothing, and you'll be surprised to find there Is little or none of the much harped about sensuality or disgusting features. Its Just a pretty, graceful dance, with good lights and artistic scenery. The two Pelots are certainly odd and humorous Jugglers. Ore, the lady Pelot, doesn't do much of anything but take up space on the stage, but the other mem ber of the team does some very good work. His continual running Are of Jokes Is not the least of his performance, and the act pleases decidedly. Douglas A. Flint and a selected cast composed of Virginia Fairfax and G. Bee Jackson present a one-act comedy en titled "The Mixer." The scene takes place In a New York apartment and Is all about a funny domestic catastrophe which Is apt to happen In even the best regulated of families. The playlet has merit and Is well presented. Another playlet given by Joseph R. Kettler and company Is styled "A Rural Substitute." It possesses a lot of keen lines, but they are scattered too far apart, and there Is too much plflltng Jargon In terspersed. The La Selle trio, who are billed as the most daring and sensational Rlsley marvels on earth, deserve a lot of credit for a very good act. Some of their stunts have never been seen here. Joe Hardman, an alleged comedian and monologulst. has the distinction 'of per petrating some of the commonest and cheapest sort of asinine near-wit, and dis- s-ustine- lnnuendos and supposea-to-oe- parodies that Portland has heard lately. He Isn't worth advertising space. Fred Bauer sings that dear old tuneful song "Mandy Lane." The moving pictures present a trick film which is particularly edifying and Instructive. Pantages. BY LEONB CASS BAER. AT Pantages this week all tne Dig glory goes to the Heras family, who are billed as world-renowned acrobats! That's all the bill tells us about 'em. Just leaves us to find out the rest of the usual much-adjectived exploitations for ourselves. There are nine of them the whole family. I should Judgo. and all grown up with a fat mamma who looks like a dowager duchess and can carry the whole out fit around on various portions of her anatomy, to say nothing of a nice, slim papa who turns somersaults In the air like an animated plnwheel. Most of the act centers about the youngest mem ber, a girl of anywhere from 12 to 24 years, who obligingly lets herself be put anywhere stands on a column of two men deep and cavorts about up In the air, turns back somersaults and does some really amazing and wonderful things up In the fly loft I really can't think what that family will do when that youngster "grows up" or gets fat like her mother. Their act Is, however, one of the best and biggest acrobatic features ever presented here. Bert Weston and company give comedy creation called "The Medicine Man," Introducing a clever Irish tenor, John W. Donovan, who sings admirably two Irish selections and a Scotch song with a rich burr-r-r that is Irresistible. Three small damsels assist In this act and are particularly Interesting in their rendition of the Highland fling. Derenda and Green .are funny and create lots of wholesome laughter with their clever Juggling; The act 1 clean and holds interest from start to finish. Derenda, by the way, is a Portland boy, who has made good the world over. Boulden and Quinn are pleasant per sonages who make music out of bells, goblets, the buttons on their uniforms and any old thing that happens to be lying around loose. They duet nicely on two horns and remind one forciblv of the maiden In Mother Goose who, with bells on her fingers and bells on her toes, always has music wherever she goes. Walter Daniels, who Is a character Im personator, contrary to most of his 11k. makes up for us before tbe spotlight and then gives some splendid and real istic delineations. The one of Svengall In "Trilby." as portrayed by "Wilton Lackaye. Is very fine. Another showing the death scene from "Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde" Is perhaps best of his pre sentations. The rapid transition from one character to the other Is perfect. Jean Wilson. . always and deservedly popular with Pantages audiences, sings "Day and Night" (that's the title of his song he realy doesn't sing that long the musicians' union wouldn't stand for It). The moving picture tells the story of a lost ball snd is laughable and new. LIGHT DOCKET IN LEWIS Judge Rice Sets Calendar for Ses sion of Superior Court. CHEHALIS. Wash.. Dec. 1. (Spe cial.) Yesterday Judge Rice set the ralendar for the session of the Lewis County Superior Court, a Jury term for which will convene in Chehalls. Monday. December 7. There are about ten cases to be tried, of which number all but two are civil actions.

OUTLINES ITS PLAN Nurse Association Describes Christmas Stamp Sale. GREAT GOOD WILL RESULT Physicians Indorse Campaign and Declare That Fight Against Tu berculosis Should Be Aid ed by Every Citizen. The officers of the Visiting Curse As- sociatlon yesterday Issued the following statement in regard to the campaign sale of the Christmas stamp which begins this week: In presenting its appeal to the public for co-operation in me hkqi vuui--losls, through the sale of the Christmas stamp, the Visiting Nurse Association out lines the following facts: First Every penny received from the sale of the stamp will e devoted to tubercular work In Oregon. None of this money can be used for any of the regular work of the association other than the tubercular work. Will Have Free Field. Second In no sense will this work con flict iwith that now being done by tbe Open Alr Sanitarium or other Institutions devoted to that dui-dom our object Is rather that of supplementing the work already being done by providing tor that class of people that Is not reached through the sanitarium. Third The ultimate disposition of the money will depend on the amount received and will rest In the Judgment of those ex perts who are In touch with the situation In Oregon; as part of this plan, the necessity for education of the general public will be employed, particularly along ths lines of the prevention, the cure of the disease It taken In time, and the necessity for guard ing against contagion. Object Is Not Charity. Fourth This campaign against tubercu losis expressed in the Christmas stamp. Is not a charity it is rather the duty of every man. woman and child who has at heart the welfare of our city or state, be he mer chant, professional man or common laborer. Let everyone help, regardless of color, race or creed, to make this campaign a success. A public meeting will be neld Thursday. December 3, at 10:30 A. K. In the Medical Association's room, second floor of the Medical building. Park and Alder streets, at which all women Interested in this cause are urged to be present. The antituberculosis campaign of the Visiting Nurse Association has already met hearty indorsement from prominent persons. Following are some of the let ters of commendation received: Aid Work of Sanitariums. PORTLAND. Dec. 1. (To the Visiting Nurses' Association. )Aa president of the Portland Open Air Sanltorlum for Con sumptives. I wish to thank your Association for the great etforts you are making In the fight against tuberculosis. Tbe most serious obstacle we have to contend with Is the Ignorance of the public of the danger and menace to all from the great number of last stage cases within our city, many of whom are without means to provide themselves with proper nursing and nour ishing food. Your association has done. Is doing and I am sure wilt continue to do great and good work In this tight. The work of ths Portland Open Air Banitorlum does not reach, except In few cases, ths friendless, last stage ooniump- j, - " and $425 each, for $263 and $304. 1 Reliable, strictly brand plainer styles go now at $168. j J 353 tlves, and such perhaps are the most de serving" of sld. Should you be able to raise sufficient funds to establish a place for the care of indigent last stage cases, you will have acompllshed a work of great benefit to the city, and at the same time have done a most charitable deed. Ths work of your body not only does nstt conflict with that of the Portland Open Air Sana torium, but is of great assistance. Only by arousing tho public to full understand ing of the perils of the great white plague can we expect aid from the state and city to stamp it out As you well know, consumption Is pre ventable and curable, but tne public must learn how to prevent and how to cure the disease, and to so instruct the public re quires considerable financial support. With thanks to your association for the assistance you have been to us In the past, and with best wishes for the success of your present campaign for funds, I beg to remain, yours very truly. A. L. MILLS, President Portland Open Air Sanatorium. Oregon Should Do Duty. PORTLAND. Dec. 1. CTo the Visiting Nurses' Association.) The work that has been performed by the Visiting Nurses' Association In caring for the helpless poor, and in teaching them how to prevent the spread of disease to otheT members of their families. Is one that must appeal to the heart of every citizen of Oregon. I feel confident that I voice the senti ment of all those whose efforts have made possible the maintenance of the Portland Open Air Sanatorium, in wishing that the fullest measure of success attend the stamp sale. A campaign of education will reach every bomekeeper in the state and will alone solve the iroblem In the fljcht asalnst tu berculosis. New York and Pennsylvania have reduced their death rate from tuber culosis 40 per cent in the last ten years. I trust that Oregon will do her full duty. Please command me if I can be of serv ice. Sincerely. E. A. FIERCE. f Cause Most Worthy One. PORTLAND. Dec. 1. ITo the Visiting Nurses' Association.) The movement which has been started to sell Christmas stamps to raise funds for tne assistance of tu bercular poor Is certainly a most worthy one and should meet with hearty approval. As Is well known. your association reaches a class of poor that can be reached by no other organization, and :n a most effective way. There is no organisation In this state that teaches people self-help in as thorough and practical manner as does the Visiting Nurses'- Association, and for this reason Is especially worthy of support. Respectfully yours, ROBERT C. YENEY. Secretary State Board of Health. Kverybody Shoo Id Aid Work. PORTLAND. Dec. 1. fTo the Visiting Nurses' Association.) The Chslstmaa stamp sale to be Inaugurated by the Visiting Nurses' Association to ralBe funds for right ing tuberculosis in Oregon seems to me to be an unique opportunity for everybody to aid In this great work.

Rich Strike in ttie Cardinal Mines The Eldorado vein In which the big free gold strike was recently made in the Cardinal Mining property, has a northeasterly and southwesterly trend, cutting obliquely through an immense dyke of gneiss, dlorlte, and horn blende, and dips easterly down Into the depths of the earth at an angle of about 25 degrees from the vertical. The apex or highest point on the vein Is near 60 feet in width, and as usually happens In all good mining lo calities, the richest gold ore Is at that part where the vein Intersects the hard rock of the dyke, but In this Instance good surface values show well down the mountain side where both walls are argylUte, proving conclusively that In the up-bullding- of this remarkable vein there was gold to spare. There can be no question about our Eldorado vein, and Its several com panion veins, paying from the surface down but rather than Install an ex pensive sinking plant right at the out set, the management prefers to com plete the present wording tunnel, which, with 700 feet of additional tun neling, will give 300 feet of vertical depth on the richest portion of the pay chute. Then with an uprise shaft to the surface. 3 levels will be ready for stoping out the ore. which, without further improvement in values than la shown at the surface will certainly yield handsome returns. Three years should be ample time In which to work out the upper levels of the central Eldorado vein, which, after deducting the small cost of mining and milling, and also providing a complete deep sinking plant, should easily pay 100 per cent on the entire capitaliza tion, or about 200 per cent on the present price of stock. But while princely dividends mav confidently be expected above the 300 foot level, it is in the greater deDths we must look for our richest pay, for CARDINAL V , 1 1 Ail new, well-known New York Name Your Own Terms At the low prices quoted, the terms really should be cash, but our object is to insure quick selling just now; hence, we'll not haggis over terms. If you have $50 or $100 to pay down, all well and good; if not, bring $10 or $15 and we will send a fine piano to your home. Balance monthly or otherwise to suit your convenience. Some people wait to buy a piano until they have all cash, and never get one. Others pay a little down, the balance monthly, and soon own the instrument, little realizing where the money came from to buy it. You pay far less now than the usual cash price," even though you buy on terms, and will have the use of the piano while paying for it. Why wait longer for a piano'? Call first thing this morning. PARKER JURY NOT AGREED FAIX TO REACH VERDICT AFTER TEX HOURS. Will Resume Deliberations Tod-ay in Case of Baker City Ranker Charged With Perjury. After deliberating for ten hours and failing to reach an agreement, the Jury that heard the testimony In the trial of James H. Parker, the Baker City banker, charged with swearing falsely to a non mineral affidavit, was locked up for the night at 9 o'clock. The trial of Parker has been going on in the Federal Court for a week. The arguments were con cluded Monday and yesterday morning Judge Wolverton gave the jury his in structions. The fact that the Jury had deliberated so long without , reaching a conclusion was a surprise to both United States At COSiTIJflED FROM DAILY OF NOVEMBER In a vein of this rich nuggety charac ter, we may reasonably expect as more depth is attained, to encounter values which have never been excelled in any country. The zone is right, the district Is right, the formation and gangue is right, the dip is right, the trend Is right, the Indications are right, and the dimensions are Hght for one of the world's richest an'd greatest gold pro ducers. It Is situated in a mineral zone that holds the world's greatest mines, and which from the well-known Mohawk. In Nevada, now producing $6,000,000. per year, to the famed Le Rol across the border in British Columbia, has never known a serioualy "faulted" or broken vein. Saying nothing of the two immense companion veins of free gold quartz and talc, measuring respectively 30 and 40 feet in width and which can be worked from the same tunnel now un der way, and still two other true fissure veins of the same material and Indications, measuring respectively 30 and 100 feet in width, requiring a separate working tunnel. and 14 smaller ledges, veins, dykes and min eral contacts on which an aggregate of 3000 feet of prospecting work hss been done, we have a mine which it Is safe to say will contribute mater ially to the world's output of gold. The property Is weli equipped with ore cars, burlelgh and hand drills, mining tools of all sorts, heavy draft team, and all the buildings, stables, sheds, shops and housings pertaining to a well-established mining camp. Nothing now remains but to complete the working tunnel, erect a mill, mine out the immense bodies of ore that can be conveniently got at by tunnels with out the cost of sinking and pumping, and then Install a good sinking plant for the lower levels. The total capitalization of the Car dinal Gold Mining Company Is 1.250.000 shares of the par value of $1 each, and now after six years of corporate ex istence with all our big bodies of ore In sight, there still remains In the company's ' treasury 350.000 shares, constituting a fund amply sufficient MINES, Via Baker RELIABLE OFFER MADE BY A RELIABLE HOUSE. ! makes are offered in this torney McCourt and A. C. Johns, Parker's attorney. Just before court adjourned for the day, word was sent from the Juryroom to Judge Wolverton that the Jury wished for further Instructions. Judge Wolverton ordered the Jurors brought In and after the' court ha given the requested in structions, they were again locked up. The trial of the Baker City banker grew out of a filing on a timber claim In Baker County by Parker on which the Buffalo Gulch mines were being operated by Fred Wundcr. Wunder complained to the Government and the matter was laid before the Federal grand Jury and an In dictment resulted. It Is alleged by tho Government that Parker knew of the Wunder mining operations when he mado oath that the land was more valuable for Its timber than for. Its minerals. It was brought out during the testimony that the most money taken out of the placer mines in one year was $600. while the average yield of gold each year was a good deal less than that amount. Jacobs Fined $500. EUGENE, Or., Dec. 1. (Special.) Jo seph Jacobs, guilty of violation of the local option law, was today fined $503 and given a terra of 30 days in Jail, the limit for this offense. 25, J80S. for the most complete development and equipment. Among the many logical and sig nificant facts in connection with this fascinating property there are a few that in concluding should be special ly noted. The Cardinal Mining prop erty, consisting of 23 quartz and 3 placer claims, making upwards of 600 acres In one bods', is situated In a commanding position in the quartz belt right at the head of the famous Stice's Gulch, an active placer mining district which has been producing con tinuously Blnce 1863. The coarse nug gety gold of the gulch, both talo and quartz, is identically the same as that found In our Immense fissure veins of talc and quartz, and there Is no question but that in mining these veins, which with working depth will certainly pay handsomely throughout, we will also encounter the actual chutes In our leads which have pro duced all the riches of this favored district. But It should be borne In mind that It will require consecutive mining in this lead to unearth the fabulously rich chutes and chimneys Indicated by the rich samples of gold found by placer processes In the soil below. Just now we are offering stock sole ly to hasten development. A few months later we will doubtless offer sufficient stock for a good mill equip ment. We have a small force of men at work; we desire to increase the force and rush the work. We need better ventilation, more air pipe, more steel rails. We have no controlling Interest for sale; we have no large block of stock for sale: we guarantee that this prop erty shall not fall Into the hands of speculators or stock-jobbers. All stock is non-assessable: there Is no preferred stock, one share Is Just as good as another. If you buy now you will get In st a rate it will certainly pay you to 'take advantage of. To anyone desiring a conservative mining Investment combined with a frittering speculation, we unhesltatinc v advise the purchase of this stock while it is still within reach.
