pnd has spent years In the study of bird
life all over the United State He Is

ties on the economic relation of birds to

Finishing Sbcond Conduit. The Pa
cific Contracting Company, which Is
building the sewer system for Sellwood
weft of Kist Fifteenth street. Is now
completing Its second reinforced concrete
conduit on East Eleventh street. There
are two main branches of the concrete
conduits, one on East Fifteenth street
having been finished last week and the
Eist Eleventh-street conduit will be built
to the. north side of Sellwood and run to
the river on Nehalem avenue. These
conduits are 3'i f"et deep by 2 feet wide
and are built entirely of reinforced con
crete. There has been 6ome criticism of
the method of laying the sewers in this
system, but John W. Campbell, chair
man of the sewer committee from the
Sellwood Board of Trade, and member of
the Mayor's Executive Committee, says
he has "watched the work daily and be
lieves a good Job is being done. Mr.
Campbell also expressed the opinion that
. reinforced concrete for sewers will be
found the coming material.
Extend Cijnton Street. A petition Is
being circulated for the extension of Clin
ton street from the present end of the
Waverly-Richmond electric railway at
East Forty-first street to the new city
1'mlts. The extension Is to be over a
mile and to be carried through South
Mount Tabor, passing through McMahon's
brick-yard. Windsor Heights and other
property, the owners of which .re willing
that the extension should be made. It Is
considered probable that the extension of
Clinton street will also mean the exten
pion of the Waverly-Richmond carllne to
South Mount Tabor, where the people
have been working Industriously for a
carline for two years. The Waverly
Rlchmond carllne Is considered the more
direct route Into the city than the Hawthorne-avenue
line.
Few Bids on Water Maucs. The City
Water Board met yesterday morning and
discussed the question of how to secure
bids for laying mains. Out of 30 mains
to be- laid, but five bids were submitted.
These were too high, and were rejected.
Contractors appear to be afraid of the
present law. as they evidently fear they
cannot collect for their work, although
Mayor Simon says they will have no
trouble of that kind. The Mayor and
members of the Board feel as they did
two months ago. that a special election
should be held to remedy the law, and
make the water fund pay -for all mains.
Instead of the abutting property.

Obtains Valuable Negatives. William
DeVeny, who returned from the Mount
Hood district Thursday evening, where
he spend six weeks, obtained perhaps
the finest collection of original photo
graphs of that country ever taken. He
camped on his five-acre tract on the
Sandy Riven-near the Junction of Zigzag
Creek. With his camera Mr. DeVeny
scaled high mountains and obtained
photographs of the Sandy Valley and
Mount Hood, covering a distance of over
. ten miles. One Is a most striking pic
ture, showing the vast stretches of
1 burned trees and the efforts of nature
to reforest the country. It took a climb
of five miles to secure' this photograph.
Mr.DeVeny made negatives of the re
mains of the bridge of cedar logs thrown
across the Sandy by early immigrants.
Only the rotten cribbing of the south
pier, held together by .wooden pins, re
mains. It la estimated that It was built
60 years ago. Judging from the trees that
have grown up through It. Ruins of an
old road house, built probably 60 years
ago. stand near the Sandy crossing,
making an excellent photograph. Copies
of these two pictures will be given to
the Oregon Historical Society. In the
collection Mr. DeVeny has between' 50
and 60 views of scenery showing the
timber, the mountains and valleys. He
will return to that district and take
pictures of the headwaters of the Sandy
and the Zigzag.

charged with the larceny of $110. He
was locked up in the City Jail upon the
complaint of B. Telefson. a lodging

years to keep his little store" of savings.
This was an old-fashioned bag hanging
on the wall in one of the rooms in his
lodging-house. ,Th!s room would be

house on Thursday night. On Friday

little behind in closing up affairs for

F. W. Pringle, Chicago attorney for the
Gail-Borden Milk Company, who is vis
iting here. "And the reason that Chi
cago has no complaint to make on that
subject is, I believe, not because it
has an efficient Board of Health or a
state board, with a set of rigid exam
inations, but because the dealers there
take the responsibility upon their own
shoulders, and by working in an educa
tional way with the farmers, secure
clean, good milk. This thing Is up to
the companies purely. You may legis
late as much as you like, but you will
have bad milk until the companies
which take the milk from the farmers
and dairymen demand and 'will accept
no other than absolutely clean and pure
milk."

Belsher, of Portland, Is at the Stratford.
DENIES CONTEMPT CHARGE
Attorney Fouts Says Statute Clears
Him of Justice Olson's Charge.
Since Justice Fred Olson has declared
tnat Attorney Seneca Fouts would have
to answer to a charge of contempt ot
court for compromising out of court the
assault and battery case between Tony
Arnaud and Lene Monroe, a vaudeville
actress, the attorney has taken exception.
"JuBtice Olson was undoubtedly not
aware of the presence of section 1555
in. Balllnger and Cotton's code," said Mr.
Fouts last night. "I have the greatest
respect In the world for all courts, but
regarding some Judges I am occasionally
compelled to disguise my feelings. Under
this section the party injured, where tha
crime charged Is a misdemeanor and a
civil action for damages will He, may
compromise the criminal charge by filing
a written satisfaction In court and upon
payment of the costs. (That was done
after Tony Arnaud paid J250 to me In full
satisfaction of the matter.
"Moreover, I am not in contempt as I
have not been cited. According to law a
contempt will not lie without a citation
to the party to show cause unless the
contempt Is committed In the presence
of the court."
SHUBERT SHOW TOMORROW
New Syndicate Will Make Bow, Of
fering "Girls" at Star.
The last and most finished comedy of
the late Clyde Fitch, "Girls," will be
presented at the Star tomorrow. It is
a clever satirical comedy on the bachelor
girl. The untimely death of Mr. Fitch
adds Interest to the production of his
last piece on the Pacific Coast. This
city has seldom had so rare an opportu
nity to see a first-class metropolitan at
traction so soon after the original New
York production, and additional Interest
is lent by the fact that It Is the Initial
production by the Shubert ( syndicate In
this city.
"Girls" is particularly a fine, clean
American comedy, aimed to appeal to
all decent-minded theatrical patrons .as
the finest type of amusement production.
The company which the Shuberts offer
is the original New York and Eastern
cast.

WATER
9 At The Oaks Sunday there will
be more different kinds of aquatic
events than ever we're seen in this
part of the country.
9 Professor A. Cavill, the cham
pion swimmer of the world, will
give exhibitions of fancy and useful
"stunts,'" and there will be team
races by members of the clubs in
Portland. Cups and medals will be
awarded by the management of
The Oaks, the judges to be repre
sentatives from the newspapers of
the city. Donatelli's famous band
will contribute concerts afternoon
and evening, and Signor Dumond,
the eminent operatic tenor, and
.Miss Frances Hoyle, the favorite
California soubrette, will render
vocal numbers.
9 The Oaks' season is growing to a
close, and it behooves Portlanders
and visitors to the city to take ad
vantage of the few remaining days
to visit this great amusement park.
The grounds in themselves are well
worthy a trip to see.
