THE SUNDAY OKISOPNIA,- .PORTLAND,. SEPTEMBER 16, 1900. 20 STREETS MUST BECLOSED cornvcn. faces to face with -this THREAT. 2S"o Money for Repairs and Everybody Flcntlnc Every Plan to Raise Sevenne. No money to make necessary street-repairs, and the people frantically Insisting that the -work be done, was the condition presented again at yesterday's meeting of the committee on streets.. Organized op position to the vehicle license, and bitter complaints against every suggestion that Smd been made) by the Council for raising revenue, have about exasperated the members. Their conversation at yester day's meeting- -was to the effect that they wonld be glad to do what was possible. To raise revenue for public work and business without taxing the people, was Bomethlng they thought impossible. If money Is raised, the people must be taxed. If the people insist on not being taxed, they' will have to adjust themselves to the conditions resulting. Some of those most clamorous for Improvements are first in the fight against the vehicle ordi nance. "I am losing- patience in this business," Bald one Councilman. "It did seem to me that the -people realized an extraordinary condition confronted them. There is no fund for the -work demanded. Streets are getting in a deplorable condition. Some will have to be closed soon, because they are dangerous. Then, the.residents affect ed will charge us with lack of attention to duty. If these people that are so anxious to nave something done would have stayed their opposition to the vehicle ordinance until we got into decent condi tion again,-the ordinance could have been repealed then, if it was found burdensome. Eut they rush into bitter technical and every other opposition before anything Is realized. We of the Council, drawing no salary, cannot well afford to pay for pub lic work. If tlhe people are determined to defeat every measure of taxation, let them be reconciled to a city where there Is no public expense." City Engineer Chase cent In several communications calling attention to the bad state of different streets. Nortnrup is closed and people living adjacent are incensed. The decking of the elevated roadway on Thurman, between Twenty second and Twenty-third streets, is rap Idly becoming so dangerous that the City Engineer says the only hope of avoiding a big damage suit some day is to close it to travel. The bridges over Marquam Gulch are In bad condition. A portion of East Water and Belmont streets are getting quite dangerous. Some of these the City Engineer has spoken of dozens of times. He and the members of the committee decided to keep patching and watching until it was seen wfiether mon ey would be available for permanent -work. ShouJd. tftio -voWclo license ordi nance be defeated, and there seemed no hope of other revenue, then streets would bo closed as fast as thy became danger ous to life and limb. The contention, between residents on Twenty-fourth street, between Gllsan and Planders, and champions of Cornell street, was not decided. Some insist on opening Twenty-fourth to full width, even though Cornell street is destroyed. Mem bers of the committee will make personal inspection of the place, accompanied by the City Engineer, before acting. Opening of Upshur, Vaughn and Twen tieth streets, through the irregular piece of ground covering the Intersections, was ato passed over until further inspection could be made. Viewers have made their surveys and assessed the damage to abut ting property. C H. Jackson, proprietor of the North Pacific planing mill, was awarded approximately $1000 for dispos sessing him of a strip in Upshur street, next to Twenty-first, where be had erect ed lumber sheds. S. C Spencer, his at torney, appeared before the committee and asked that no effort be made to open this part of the street, as his client would far prefer -the land to the damages. Tyler Woodward, speaking for some of the pe titioners, thought opening through to this street was a material consideration. The committee seemed disposed to proceed un der the plans evolved from the present conditions. They, however, concluded to visit the ground and satisfy themselves individually before deciding. Mr. Spen cer said he did not wish to appear in the light of making threats, but would say Irts client TfrouKL oppose taking from Mm that strip, even though a bitter legal fight had to be made. Improvement of several streets was con sidered on petition of adjacent property owners. East Couch, between Third and Sixteenth, for which improvement a ma jority of abutting property-owners had petitioned, was passed favorably. Also, Hancock, between Fifteenth and Seven teenth. Action on the petition for Im provement of Second street, between Mor rison, and Madison, "was again deferred pending a reply from the Judiciary com mittee regarding the forfeiture of the Second-street street-car franchise. Improvement of Sixth street, between Morris&n and Salmon Is also pending. It appears that when Morrison street was paved with ajjphalt the Government re fused to pay for its due share in .front of the Postofflce, and the city had to do it. There are no funds to pay anything now, and until it appears satisfactorily that the Government will pay for its share of the worth on Sixth street, in front of the Postofflce, the members of the committee do not feel like incurring any liability. In the case of Morrison street, It is stated that the then Post master opposed it, and was the cause of the city having to take the burden. Post master Croasman is reported to favor the present Improvement, and-ls doing what he can to have the propcri allowance made. Until something is done the com mittee will bold the petition en file. A petition from the Portland Hotel for the Improvement of Seventh street, be tween Morrison and Yamhill was favor ably acted -upon. The hotel owns all the property on. one side, which is the requi site half. Vitrified brick is the material asked for. Bids were recently asked for the Im provement of Kelly street. The only bid der submitted a figure for doing the work that astounded the Board of Public Works, and it sent a communication yes terday asking that a change In the speci fications be permitted and other bids be asked. Kelly-street property-owners will hardly feel like paying $24,000 for this im provement, and unless a material reduc tion is made In the next bids, the contem plated Improvement may be delayed a long time. Hnnters Paradise. Two young men of the East Side have returned from an outing at Mist, in the Nehalem country, where they spent sev eral days. They found thatf district a wild country, full of deer and bear. Half a mile from where they were camped the country Is so wild and the timber so heavy that it Is almost Impossible to get through. In this dense solitude the deer have increased rapidly, and the people living in the -vicinity of Mist say that there are many fold more deer there now than a few years ago. Their Isolated and Inaccessible situation affords the deer pro tection from annihilation by hunters, and they have continued to increase. To kill them without dogs is Impossible, as the hunter rarely ever catches a glimpse of them In the thick timber, although he can hear them plunge through the brush. With trained dogs there are places where deer can be easily ldlled. So far the farmers depend largely on their stock. About every farmer who has stock In the neighborhood Is for McKInley and Hooscvelt, a fact that was ascertained by careful Inquiry. 'When asked why they favored the election of McKInley, .one farmer remarked; "Do you see that bunch' of cows over-'there? Well, four years "ago I could not get $100 for the whole band, but they are worth now over $300." LAST NIGHT OP THE FAIR. Bis Crowd of Maskers aad Merry makers. The farewell crowd that leisurely wend ed its way last night from the glittering-Monrlson-etreet entrance to the farther est limits of the German Village, and back again, was a characteristic Carnival throng, almost as great- In numbers as the one of Shriners' night Merry maskers in gay costumes of many hues and strange patterns mingled with the sightseers, and by their grotesque antics brought forth peals of cheery laughter, confetti -filled j 7i ' . ' . . Hi j. ' ' -n III Studebaker's display at the Street Pair was of exceeding historical-interest. It is not' stating it too strongly to say that no other single exhibit on the, grounds Inspired such absorbed attention, as .Abraham Lincoln's state carriage. This relic of momentous by-gone days was presented by Robert T. Lincoln to bis friend, .P. E. Studebaker, of Chicago Through the efforts of the Portland manager for Studebakers, the carriage .was sent here. From Portland 'It will be taken to Spokane for the fruit fair, and then will go back to Chicago. Its" exhibition here brought out the fact that there are In Portland and the country surrounding quite a number of old soldiers who were members of Lincoln's body guard. For them It had especial .intere st Studebakers possess a number of vehicles 'of historic value. Among them Is the carriage, presented by this Government to General. La Fayette while he was the Nation's guest. In It he rode from Buffalo to Boston. A singular Incident mentioned by Mr. Kimball, of the firm, 'was .that while the Lincoln carriage was on exhibition at St. Joseph, Mo., the exposition buildings -were destroyed by Are, and th.e ' carriage -vyas the only tiling saved. It was brought out df the building by Captain Jack Crawford and his company of Sioux 'Indians. the atmosphere, and amid the discordant noise of horns and whistles, the spielers made their last appeals in their happiest vein. But after all, a spirit of regret seemed to have settled upon all, a regret born of the knowledge that when they had gazed upon the beauties of the Fair and had passed out from beneath the blazing splendor of the canopied incan descents, away, from the dying echoes of -the melody of the Temple of Music, it would be for the last time. The larjrest attendance ever In thp. Women's Building marked the final state reception or tne icing and Queen of the Carnival last night, when they appeared with their courtly suite, richly arrayed, to gratify the ever-Increasing desire of humanity to gaze upon royalty and the magnificence that accompanies It The crowd was so great and Its curiosity was displayed with such easremess that th strenuous attempts of the Carnival guards ana ponce to restrain It In its proper channel was ineffectual. The familiar rule of "kep to the right" was thrown to the winds, and the space became a solid mass of human beings, that swayed to and fro and crushed the barrier railings like cardboard.

In behalf of the Good Samaritan Hos pital, its officials and board of trustees, I beg to make grateful acknowledgment of the receipt of $120015 from the Ordei of Elks as the result of Carnival day, September 10, the receipts of which were so generously given for the benefit of this institution.

R. & N. train to Bonneville Sunday and enjoy the mag nificent scenery and cool breezes to be had under the pine trees at Bonneville. Train leaves Union depot at 9 A. M. Re turning, train reaches Portland at 4:30 P. M. The very low rate of 50 cents for the round trip Is still In effect. This rate is good on Sundays only. , "CAUTION." On account of the great popularity and merit of the Singer sewing machines, some agents representing low-grade and cheap sewing- machines cannot find a .market for their goods without misrep resenting the Singer. Their method Is to purchase a Singer, put it In bad order, so that it cannot do good work, also to tight en up all the adjustable bearings to make it run too stiff or heavy for any operator, then to use this Singer as a stool-pigeon In store or on wagon. A Singer that has been used as a stool-pigeon, as described, is now on, exhibition in our office (corner Park and Morrison streets), as an expose of tho deception that has been practiced by the representative of a low-grade ma chine for several months. We desire to caution the publfc and to state that the Singer agent can sell a Singer sewing ma chine only, and that the agent who can sell a Singer or any other make of a sewing machine is liable to bring or send a faked Singer sewing machine, if called for, with the view- of selling the low grade sewing machine of which he may be agent. Beware of the wise fool who can show a faked Singer sewing machine and prove that it is no good. Thousands whom It has cured vouch for the value of Hood's Sarsaparllla as a cure for catarrh. TO' BE OPENED MONDAY PORTTiAITD MINING STOCK 'EX CHANGE BEGINS BUSINESS. , Directors Include Some of tfce Best- KnoTTH Business Men of ihe City The- Brokers. The Portland Mining Stock Exchange will open for business 'tomorrow at 10:30 A. M., at the exchange room, 126 First street. Its promoters are some of Port land's wealthiest and most progressive citizens, and they have, sought to estab lish an exchange based .upon the most ap proved methods, having an eye to per- manency, character and just dealing. The history of mining exchanges all over' the country with few exceptions is that they have a precarious existence, and have generally ended In a collapse, leaving the community worse off than before. To guard against this, Stringent rules have been adopted, and Its organization is looked upon in every way as near per fect as can bt. Viewed In this light, a number of active members of the Oregon Mining Stock Exchange have determined to withdraw in a body from it, taking with them their stocks. Overtures were made to the officers of the Portland Min ing Stock Exchange to unite with that In stitution, and they and a number of non active brokers will on Monday transfer their business to It This Is promised as an absolute and permanent chiinge. They will havo representation on the board of directors and on tho important commit tees, and a voice iti the future manage ment. P. J. Jennings and tavid Goodsell, woll-known mining men, will enter the board of directors also. Tyler Woodward, J. Frank Watson, Seneca Smith, Rufus Mallory and P. L. WiHis, all well-known citizens, are also members of the board. With tjiio enumeration of the personnel of the board, the public will be assured of positive effort to make a stock exchange worthy of the name. The following brokers will be members df the Portland Mining Stock Exchange: E. A. Clem, of E A. Clemi & Co.; D. A. Honeyman, of Culllson & Co.; Charles Gee, 1 Y. Keady, of JKfelsner, Keady & Curtis; H. H. McCarthy, of H. H. McCar thy & Co.; I. H. Bingham, A. R. Diamond, of Rountree & Diamond; W. P. Wagy, G..B. Hengen and A. C.

"A physician's wife, Mrs. Dr. Landon, gave me a packet of Grape-Nuts about a year ago, with the remark that she was sura I would find the food very beneficial, both for my own use and for my patients. I was particularly attracted to the food, as at that time the weather was very hot and I appreciated the fact that the Grape-Nuts required no -cooking. "The food -was dellciously, crisp, and most inviting . to the -appetite. After making use of it twice, a day for three or four weeks, I discovered that It was a most wonderful lnvlgorator. . I used to suffer greatly from.'1 exhaustion, head aches and depression of spirits. My w6rk had been very trying at times, 'and in digestion had set in., "Now I am always well and ready for any amount of work, have an abundance of active energy and cheerfulness and mental poise. I have proved to my en tire satisfaction that this change has been brought about by Grape-Nuts food. "The fact that it is predlgested Is a very desirable feature. I have had many remarkable results In feeding Grape-Nuts to my patients, and I cannot speak- too highly of the food. My friends constant ly comment on the change in my ap pearance. I have gained nine pounds since beginning the use of this food." Eleanor Miller, Trained Medical and Sur gical Nurse, 515 Jefferson street, Bay City, Mich.

This year the styles in fur garments are strikingly natty and becoming to the wearer. The short Jacket, with shawl collar and bell sleeves, made in seal. Persian otter or combination of furs, with marten- and chinchilla collars; will be worn by good dressers. Eton Jickets just striking the waist, with dip front, will be very popular and show off the figure to great advantage. These garments are shown In a bewildering variety by the Sllverfleld Fur Manufacturing Company, and the woman would indeed be hard to please who could not find something In this magnificent stock suitable to her wants and pocketbook. The sealskins handlcdare the best on the market, and the prices the lowest consistent with quality.' Trasn finds no place in this' stook. The style that this firm imparts , to every garment has succeeded in spread ing the reputation of S,Ilverfield as, far Bast as New York, a.nd the Sllverfleld collar, has now becomes famous. A well- maae-np iur is a treat to the eye, but an ill-fitting, clumsy jacket or cape Is worse than none at all. -Animal boas with large heads will be more popular this year than ever before, and this line .Is found complete In every detail at Silver field's, where the stock of all kinds of fur's 'and'fur garments 'will compare fa vorably with any similar stock In the United-States.
