Patriots to Give a Dinner. A number
of tv ell-known gentlemen in Portland were
recently discussing the eubject of patri
otic sentiment and the influence upon the
community of occasional reminders of
the deeds and lives of eminent American
citizens who have been identified with the
country's history and left their impress
upon its course. It was unanimously
agreed that it would be highly proper and
expedient to inaugurate a custom that
would tend to awaken interest along this
line, and those present decided to take
steps toward having an annual dinner
to be given on the anniversary of the
birth of some great departed American
citizen, such as Washington, Hamilton,
Jefferson, Jackson, Lincoln or Grant. For
the purpose of carrying out this Idea and
plan, an organization under tho name of
the American Patriotic Club was perfect
ed. The inaugural dinner will be given
on February 12, the anniversary of Abra
ham Lincoln's birth, at the Hotel Port
land. Prominent and entertaining speak
ers -will respond to appropriate toasts, and
a thoroughly enjoyable time is anticipated.
At the coming dinner the guests present
will select the name of the American
whose memory will be commemorated at
the next annual dinner. A committee,
consisting of George W. Hazen, C. M.
Idleman and B. B. Betkman. has in
charge the arrangements for tho Initial
dinner. i JtiiBHI'I
Lecture bt Auditor Devlin; Mr.
Thomas C. Devlin will lecture on the
subject of "Municipal Taxation and
Finance' at the meeting of the Portland
Economic League on Tuesday evening,
January 21. He will define purposes of
government in both inherent and con
ferred powers; the services of govern
ment; tho advantages of taxation under
a representative government; the forms
of taxation, both direct and Indirect, ap
plicable to municipal needs. While advo
cating municipal control of public utili
ties, he will present the dangers that may
result from the application of the reve
nues accruing therefrom to dref raying) tho
expenses of the Inherent functions of gov
ernment, which should always be paid
from accumulated wealth. He will de
scribe how rates may be made a form
of Indirect tax and become another means
of shifting the expenses of government
from property to consumer. Ho will ad
vocate some important reforms in city
finance, especially concerning the debt
limitations and the proper use of public
credit
Just a Side Issue. The published re
ports of the injuries to a candidate for
initiation Into Spokane Lodge, Order of
Washington, caused no end of trouble to
J. L. Mitchell, supreme secretary of the
order, yesterday. According to the re
ports, the candidate was ridden in a cart
as a part of the ceremony, and was hurt
bo that he has been confined to his bed
since Wednesday. In answering tho many
queries -regarding the Spokane candidate,
Mr. Mitchell said yesterday that the cart
said to have been used, and in -which tho
candidate was hurt, was not countenanced
by the supreme lodge. Jt has been, he
said, introduced simply as a side degree
by some lodges, in the same manner as
such degrees are brought Into other or
ders. It wasaccepted by the candidate at
Spokane after he had been duly Initiated,
and was a sort of by-play. The Order of
Washington is an Oregon Institution, es
tablished in 1S83, and numbers about 15,000
members.
Saw, but Didn't Catch Them. Two
boys about 14 years old were riding their
horses past Fourteenth and Everett
streets yesterday, and they sneaked two
oranges and a bunch of celery from a
vender's wagon standing at the corner,
little dreaming that Special Officer Haw
ley, of the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society,
was present and saw the whole affair.
The man -who drove the vegetable wagon
was in the house bargaining with a pros
pective customer when the boys pulled up
their horses and made free with the dain
ties. They rode away so quickly that
Hawley did not have time to stop them,
but he has a description of the culprits.
He states that If the boys do not want to
get Into trouble that they had better call
at the police station at once and pay for
the property they took. One boy rode a
black horse and the other a bay.
Portland Library Closes. The Port
land Library was closed last night for re
pairs, preparatory to Its reopening as a
free library under the 10-year contract
entered Into between the Library Associa
tion and the city. Librarian Leach said
last night that he could not tell Just when
the library -would be reopened. The re
pairs, he said, might be completed within
four weeks, or six weeks at the most.
When this work is finished, the library
will be reopened.
In New Quarters. The Board of
Trade, under Its plan of reorganization,
has established a temporary office In room
K 618 Commercial building, and there Sec
retary iuooro is prepared to give the pub
lic any information within his power.
Plans for other quarters are under con
sideration, but they will not be passed
upon until the first regular meeting in
February, when, with some other Impor
tant matters, they will be taken up for
consideration.

Relics That Are Appreciated. The
great sale of arms and other military
trappings secured from the United States
Government continues with unabated In
terest on the part of the public at 130
Sixth street. 1000 Maynard rifles were
brought here' by Mr. Kirk, and he has
sold during the past six days 525. This Is
a good, reliable rifle, and as It Is sold
with 20 rounds of cartridges for 52, it is
no wonder that the public has not ben
slow in taking advantage of such an un
usual opportunity to secure a good fire
arm at such a reasonable price. A guar
antee is given by Mr. Kirk that If you
are not satisfied after purchasing and
testing the rifle you can return the same
and receive your money back. In addi
tion to the Maynard rifles, old muskets,
swords, saddles, helmets and a hundred
other implements of war are on sale at
equally low prices. If only from curios
ity, it is interesting to visit 130 Sixth
street.
Did Not Feed Hra Horses. Trouble
about feeding horses left in hla care has
led to the arest of S. St. Clair, better
known as "Dollar Bill," colored, charged
with cruelty to animals. He will have a
hearing before Municipal Judge Cameron
tomorrow. It Is alleged that St. Clair has
two horses In his barn at Fourth and Ev
erett streets, and that up to the time of
the warrant being issued the horses had
not been fed for two days. St. Clalrwas
seen, and he denied that the horses were
his. "I bought the horses from, a man
in Alblna," he explained. "I bought them
on a note for 90 days, and the time of the
note will not expire for about 10 days yet.
We agreed that I could return the horses
within a, reasonable time if they we're not
satisfactory, but when I asked the man
to take back tho horses he refused. The
horees are here at his risk." The ani
mals are being fed now.

HIGHWAYMEN GET $23
CHESTER FRY GOES FREE DR,
C. E. HAWKE PAY'S UP.
Robbers Express Dlsgrnst at First
Haul, bat Persevere and Catck
Secead Victim.
Two daring highwaymen, one tall and
the other short, held up Chester Fry, 7C0
Savler street, and Dr. C. EL Hawke, 371
Multnomah street, last night within 35
minutes of each other. The proceeds of
the Hawke robbery for Fry did not carry
any money amounted to 523 in money and
a valuable watch.
Fry was held up on the Northrup-street
bridge, about four blocks from the Union
Terminal Depot, about 8:15 o'clock. Both
robbers wore slouch hats and long black
overcoats, with the collars of their coats
turned up. Neither of the precious pair
wore masks. Fry did not see the foot
pads until they were close to him, when
one of them suddenly pulled out a re
volver and said: "Young fellow, dig up!"
"I haven't got a cent.'' protested Fry.
holding up his hands. The. other robber
passed his hands rapidly over Fry's cloth
ing, and then growled, "The fellow has
got nuthin'." The other robber snorted
contemptuously, and Fry thought he was
to be treated to a lecture on the enormity
of his having ventured out with nothing
In his pockets of value to a highwayman.
But the tall robber was evidently too dis
gusted with his non-success to give the
lecture, and he sharply said: "Be off with
you, and don't look back." Fry was only
too glad to avail himself of the desired
permission, and he lost no time in making
his way to tho police station and telling
Police Captain Moore of the outrage. He
gave a good description of both robbers.
It was about 8:50 o'clock when Dr.
Hawke was walking on East Third street,
near Holladay avenue, and saw two men
In front of him. It was a dark part of
the street, covered by shade trees, and
the nearest electric light wa3 about one
block away. Ten yards distant tho two
men suddenly separated, and then Dr.
Hawke suspected, as he afterward said,
that he was about to be robbed. One
robber pulled out a revolver and said,
"Dig up!" Tho victim was in no position
to resist, so he held up his hands, while
the other robber went through his pock
ets, taking the money and watch, but he
mercifully returned Dr. Hawke's keys.
"Now, get along, an be quick about It!"
commanded the robber who flourished the
revolver, and Dr. Hawke did so. He, too,
communicated with the police station, and
his description of the robbers tallied ex
actly with the description of the two men
who had robbed Fry. The police think
that the robbers, after holding up Chester
Fry on the Northrup-street bridge, trav
ered over the steel bridge and laid in wait
for Dr. Hawke on East Third street. Dr.
Hawke was robbed within 100 yards of his
home.
