i Multnomah County Is to have an In-
I expensive, clean and sanitary tubercu

Mlves may be cared fur. Thle waa an
nounced by County Jul Cleetoa and
conimlealonerB Ughtner end Goddard

rJlalph and Ray Matson and Dr. E. P.
Wleary to Visit the new Multnomah
If arm. near lroutd.ilc. with them, to
I select a site for the new tuberculosis
f hospital.
l'r. Matson was a-sure. that the
( ward would be built on modern line.
jaUthouRh It N not expected that the
tulldinjr will be costly.
I "All that wo a' It that It be san
jltary." said It. Mntson. -and po.nesi
.such facilities aa will help In restoring
'the patients to heulth.
Salem Hospital Too Small.
Commimloner IJchtner mII It was
thought for a time that the new tuber
Iculcrgls hospital at Salem would house
'Multnomah ."ountya tubercular poor,
(but as It la not large enough, the
jcourty will hare to care for Its own
i patients.
. r'or the present the Omnty Court
;-wlll make aa effort to Improve cond
itions at the old poor farm on the
: Can yon Itoad. although la. k of any
..kind of sewerage makes this difficult.
A bathtub Is to be bougnt and equipped
'with a hot water tank. The privilege
let bathina" Is now denied the tubercu
'lar patients. The roof of the porch,
-which leaks so that patients' beds are
-soaked. Is to be repaireii. and a com
patent nurse will be employed. Facili
ties for properly caring for the pa
tients will also be provided as re
quested, according to the promise of
the County Court yesterday. Quarters

Bad Stato Admit tod.
Conditions of the Poor Farm, as re
porter by Ir. Ralph Matson. have been
admitted by rr. E. P. Geary. County
physician, and Superintendent Jackson,
cf the Poor Farm. Mr. J ark son aatd
Tr. Matson had rather underdrawn the
(picture. They admitted to the County
. Court that the roof of the tuberculosis
ward leaks, that food served the pa
tient Is coarse, that the nurse who
tares for the patients drinks to ex
ten. that the sputum Is not properly
disposed of, and in Summer feeds
multitudes of files: that there are no
facilities for bathina;. and that there
are no toilet accommodations and aew
erase. Superintendent Jackson com
planed -that he has only one cook and
a dishwasher for 200 pursons. and t,.at
It was found difficult to obtain a mime
who would endure the inadequate fa'
duties.
PlMlpllne Is Toor.
Dr. Matson complained that discipline
eer the patients Is lacking, that some
vf them did as they pleased about 1
Itlng saloons and getting drunk.
County Jtnlge Cleeton criticised Dr.
Geary for failing to report to the
County Court the state of u.f fairs, which
has been bad for right months. Dr.
Matson waa also blamed for not In

Cranberries are of greatest Interest
In the fruit market, ana are cheaper

GOOD THINGS IN THE
PORTLAND MARKETS
Plenty of turkeys to satisfy the de
mands of Thanksgiving: good quality
' and prices lower thnn !at year thla
seems to he the holiday market situ
ation. Choice birds can be had at 25
cents a pound. All other poultry seems
to cost less than It did this time last
year. Chickens sell at IS to 10 cents
a pound: geese cost 20 cents. Includ
ing some of the best I have ever seen
In Portland. Tame ducks cost 20 cents;
fine capons brlnK 20 cents, and guinea
fowls 20 to 2S rents a pound. Of game
there Is a larger supply than usual,
wtld geese sell at about 75 cents, but
do not seem as plentiful as the ducks.
Teal coat about 75 cents to fl a pair;
widgeon and mall lard about $1.25. Can
vas back ducka are scarce, but still
obtainable at $1.25 to $1.60 each. Snipe
cost 75 cents a pair. Jack rabbits aell
at about 60 cents and Belgian hares at
about $1 each. Meat prices remain
about aa usual, but a special display of
fancy cuta -crown roasts, saddles " of
mutton, and so forth attempts rivalry
with the poultry market. Uttle pigs
esteemed by some epicures even more
highly than the turkey may be ob
tained. In all their Innocent Infantile
charm, for $4 to $ each.
In the fish markets are some holiday
specialties, such as Kaatern lobsters at
60 to 0 centa each: Eastern white fish
and pike at 40 centa. and Kastern oys
sters. There la a good supply of striped
bass and some black bass at about 10
cents a pound. The list of Inexpensive
fish Includes salmon, halibut, flounder,
torn-cod. smelt, skate and perrh all
about 10 cents a pound. Croppies and
black cod cost 12i cents: catfish and
sole 15 cents, and young sturgeon 20
cents a pound. Crabs are plentiful, but
Gobblers, Sets 1'ace Cost on
Sound Mu h Higher.
The people of Portland will have rea
son to be thankful for one thing today
the low price of turkeys.
Twenty-five rents will be the quota
tion, meaning cheaper turkeys than the
consumers have known In several years.
It will also mean that Portland will be
one of the rhcapest markets In the West.
Many reasons are asslcinxl by dealers
for ti e slump, but the chlr-f cause seems
to be too many turkeys. Ijxrt year there
were not enough and prh-es went up.
This year conditions are reversed and
the consumer gets the benefit.
It Is estimated that the total receipts
to d:te have been ten carloads. The
consumption Is about seven rarloads,
and consequently there Is a surplus. In
past years Seattle and other Northern
cities have drnwn heavily on Portland
and taken rare of the surplus, but this
year the Washington cities have bought
tut little here, having serured their
aupply In Idaho and the East. ,
Frank I Smith, who has received
more turkeys than any otnvr Portland
retailer, has set the pace for today's
trade by announcing that he will cut the
prire In all of hla markets to 25 cents.
"We looked for a 30-cent market thla
Thanksgiving." said Mr. Smith Inst night,
"but the supply of turkeys hsa proved
much greater than we expected, so we"
have decided to cut the, price to 25 centa
Wednesday morning. I have never seen
a finer crop of turkeys than was raised
In Oregon this year and the consumers
are certainly fortunate in being able to
get them at such a price.
"With turkeys lower, of course, all oth
er poultry has to come down in price.
Dressed geee and ducks will sell at 20
centa a pound and chickens at 15 to 20
centa a pound."
The Tuesday before Thanksgiving Is
nsuaily the big day In the wholesale tur
key market, bnt yesterday was a disap
pointment to the Front-street trade.
I.ornl buyers were almost out of the
market, most of them having secured
their stock In the country, and what
sales were made were at steadily declin
ing prices. At the close of the day the
general Jobbing price was I2' cents.
The Seattle market was also a weak
affair yesterday, but prevailing prices
there were much higher than In Port
land. Jobbing quotations ranged up to
28 cents on choice stork. The retail
price of turkeys In Seattle today will be
SO to 33 cents a pound.
carried down stream by the current.
while three men put off from the revenue
cutter Manning which was berthed at
the coal bunkers. Mennwhllu, srvs Mr.
Rankin, sailors of the Batjln Chevaye
stood hud.Ued on the forecastle, watching
the efforts of the doomed man to save
himself, but being weighted by boots and
heavy clothing, he was unable to win
the battle, nnd sank from view.
Beneath the port bow of the bark waa
second small boat, but apparently It
did not occur to the crew to use It, or
to drop Into the punt, which remained
under the bow for a time before It was
caught by the current. Those who wit
nessed -the drowning declare that not
even a buoy was thrown to him.
In deference to tho dead, the bark s
flag was displayed at halfmast. Harbor

ranged for dr.iKfTlng operations to begin
today, as yesterday's storm Interfered

on the way to the river from San Fran

Wallowing In heavy seas off the Co
lumbia for 4S hours and covering but
16 miles In 56 hours, is a story told of
the fctprm by officers of the steamer
Hoqulam, which arrived yesterday from
Han Francisco.
Superintendent Groves, of the Port of
Portland dredges, expects the Portland
to finish digging at Hunter's Bar to
day, and she will shift to the St. Johns
drydock to deepen the basin. The Co

ASTORIA. Or.. Nov. 23. (Special.) In
structions were received today to hold
eurvry on the crippled steam schooner
Temple M Door. That will be done to
morrow by iCaptaln Albert Crowe, of
Portland. William Donovan, of Grays
Harbor, representing the owners of the
cargo, will arrive from there tomorrow to
look after the cargo.
While nothing has been definitely de
cided upon, there la talk of the lumber
being transferred to the steam schooner
Shoshone. The Dorr Is now making about
four Inches of water an hour as she lies
at the wharf, and the pumps are keeping
her clear easily.
Aa a eeocmd contract was yesterday
awarded to the Oregon Drydock Com
pany on the Shoshone, dealing with the
placing of heavy timbers fore and aft
on her deck, and an allowance of four
daya was made for the new work. It is
improbable that she will be ready for
sea for at least a week, so the Dorr's
cargo could not be transferred without
delay.
Captain Blaln. of the Oregon drydock,
said last evening that the lumber would
not be delivered , until rlday for the
deck. It is thought that when the survey
Is completed todny It will be decided at
once where the Dorr will go.

The value of experience depends not so much
upon its volume as upon its quality. A thousand
years of inaccurate practice would make no phy
sician more proficient. Though my experience is
considerable In quantity Its value lies in the faot
that it is experience of the hlsjheet order ex
perience aoqulred through careful and conscientious-practice,
proven scientific by an unap
nroached record of permanent cures. I have for
twenty-five years been curing- all ailments peculiar to men, and each
one of these years has been crowded full of careful study and sound,
good experience.
