ltf THE SUNDAY OREGO'IAN, PORTLAND, l&PBIL . 23, 1905. CHINESE REM TO GLEAN QUARTERS Raise Fund to Propitiate Offi cial Wrath by Con tributions. DENS ADMIT NO WHITES Hope by These Means, as Discussed at-3Iass Meeting in Joss-House, to Be Exempt From Police Raids. r ACTION OF CHINESE. Frightened by .the expose of conditions In Chinatown, as published In The Ore gonlan, and fearing- raids by the police, denizens of the Chinese district yester day held a great meeting' In the Joss house opposite .police headquarters. They discussed the subject In detail. Copies of stories recently published in The Oregonlan -were translated from the English, so that all those present might have a clear understanding- of the Ques tions at Issue. As a result of the meeting, strict or ders -were given all Chlneoe to observe the following rules: Klrrt Clean up all houses and stores. Second Positively no white person to be allowed in opium dens. A purse is being raised-to be -used for mysterious purposes, pome say with a view to softening the wrath of of ficials. In a jesshouse on Second street, oppo site police headquarters, a monster mass jmeetlng of residents and merchants of Chinatown, was held yesterday afternoon. It was for the purpose of discussing stories recently published in The Ore ,gonian exposing-' the exceptionally men acing unsanitary conditions existing in 'the district. Representatives were there from every store and tenement in the quarter, and decisive action was taken on three matters. ' No more white persons are to be allowed in Chinese opium dens, and all Chinatown is to be cleansed. A committee was ap pointed to collect a fund to be used for purposes not altogether clear. It is said the Chinese are so foolish as to believe they may be able to bribe policemen, and thus manage to secure a continuance of ithe privileges relative to the operation of opium dens, without fear of molesta tion. Great excitement has prevailed through out Chinatown since the publication of the conditions existing there. Copies of The Oregonlan, .containing the stories, ac companied by photographs, were pur chased by Chinese and eagerly read. What Chief Hunt and Deputy City Attor ney Fitzgerald said In interviews was -perused with intense interest by the dwellers in the district. This was to the effect that there must be a general cleansing in the Chinese quarters, both in istores and tenements, and that opium idens must be suppressed. Quickly the news was sent, until not one person in Chinatown was Ignorant ot ithe rumors that a change was impending. (Groups of Chinese gathered and discussed at. while in the stores and dwellings it hvas the sole topic of conversati6n. At last it was decided to call a mass .meeting, and the josshouse on Second Sstreet, opposite police headquarters, was selected as the place. There the excited Chinese gathered, and listened to translations of The Oregonlan's stories concerning Chinatown by an educated member of the race. It was thought best to read over the arti cles, so all might clearly understand t.he dangers and conditions to be dis cussed. Various influential men .of China town, merchants and others, were heard. All details of the matter were talked over, and it was, agreed to re--ter the questions at issue to a com mittee. Its members were to prepare orders, to be strictly followed, if adopted by the meeting. After considerable wrangling, re sembling much an American political gathering, three rules were drafted, 'and when put to a vote were carried unanimously. They were that no more white persons should be admitted to opium dens; that all Chinatown must le cleansed and kept clean, and that a. purse be raised to soothe the wrath of officials, in order to secure a con tinuation of the privileges relative to he operation of opium dens. A committee was appointed to begin collection of funds for the appeasing of the official wrath, and that commit tee Is still at work. It is to report back, relative to Its success at a meet ing to be held later. Immediately after the meeting ad journed, merchants throughout China town employed persons to clean up es ttabllshments, and the cleansing pro cess began. Special attention Is being ;Eriven the opium dens, as they are said to be the worst disease-breeders in Portland, and Chief Hunt and Dep uty City Attorney Fitzgerald declared they must be closed. The Chinese think that they should "be permitted to conduct the dens, as llong as they permit of no whites en tering. They think they will be able to bo persuade the police, especially when there is a little fund at hand. LKS PLAN A COUNTY FAIR Interesting Programme and Many Booths Will Be Features. The Elks will begin their "County Fair" at the Armory next Tuesday evening. It will continue up to and Including Saturday following.

Falls From Railway Bridge. John Nelson, a carpenter, was seriously Injured last night about 8 o'clock by fall ing off the Oregon Water Power & Rail road Company's bridge near Estacada. He fell a distance of 35 feet, alighting on his head and shoulders. He was taken to the St. Vincent's Hospital, where it is believed he Is Internally Injured. Nelson was working on the bridge at the time and missed his foothold. Threatens Life of Wife.

THE "ELKS' MINSTREL MAIDS WHO jrrr.vryg in KEEPS MIES DOWN Portland Service Company Has Arranged for Roomers. SUPPLY TRAVELING PUBLIC During the Exposition the Average Price of Single Rooms Will Be One Dollar and a Half a Day. The Portland Service Company, under the management of E. C. Dunnavent, has settled In Portland to make an effort to furnish respectable rooms to the traveling public at a reasonable rate, and already 6200 rooms In private residences and 15 hotels have listed their rooms with the company, promising to abide by the prices agreed upon throughout the season. The good part of the new arrangement is the news that thq average price of single rooms will be held at $1.50 a day, a room for two at 52 for the same period- of time, and rooms -accommodating three or more persons at from S3 to 54. The Portland Service Company will be far-reaching in scope and beneficial in effect. It works under the sanction of the railroad companies, and with their assist ance and co-operation, and In this way will be able to reach every person buying a ticket to the city during the course of the Exposition. The plan of the company In short is that- it has made arrangements with the passenger departments of the O. R. & N., the Southern Pacific, Great Northern and Northern Pacific whereby each local agent of the rallrond companies becomes a local agent of the Service Company. From this time on any person at any place along the lines of the companies Included in the agreement can go to the local agent and by the payment of 51 in sure for himself and those who will visit the Fair with him rooms at prices to suit. A resident of Chicago can go to the ticket office of the railroad line over which he wishes tp travel to Portland, and by the payment of his fee will be en titled to the service of the company. The patron of the company can then fill a card stating the time he will arrive In Portland, the length of his visit and the price he wishes to' pay for his rooms. This card will be sent to the Portland office, and the man will be accommodated from some of the rooms listed here, the landlady being notified and the reserva tion being noted by her. The address of the place, together with directions for reaching it by car, will then be sent to the purchaser of the ticket. When he arrives In Portland he will be given the free guidance of one of the corps of yellow-uniformed messengers at the Union depot, who will take him to his assigned room, and if the apartments are ac ceptable will leave him there. If. how ever, by any chance the room is not what is desired, t?.o person will be taken to the main office of the company and will be furnished with a roorn to suit at the price agreed upon. Already reservation orders are begin ning to pour into the central office In the city, and from every indication it will TTILL APPEAR AT THE COUNTY TA1XZ a :srarxESiCEtx,- the "old tdce SCENE IX A CHINESE OPIUM DEN. serve a very useful purpose during the Exposition In adding to the satisfaction of the people attending from a distance. The comp'any, being under the wing ot the railroad companies. Is bound to live up .tp its promises, and Its fight to keep the prices of rooms within reasonable bounds during the. Exposition wlll.be a source of gratification to those attending. Y. W. C. A. AT THE EXPOSITION It Plans Much for the Comfort of Visitors at Fair. These are busy days for the officers of the Young Women's Christian Associa tion, arid especially for Miss Vance, the secretary, as there is so much detail to be attended to in connection with the as sociation's plans for the Fair. The build ing which the T. W. C. A. will occupy Is to be completed in time for the June opening, and will be arranged In such a way as to add very greatly to the com fort and pleasure of visitors. Rest rooms for Women will be provided, clean and commodious lavatories, with bath, an Information bureau and checkroom, and a w(ell-conducted nursery. There will also be an extensive exhibit of the Coast asso ciation work, and on the first floor a res taurant, to be patronized by both ladles and gentlemen.

SPECIAL EXHIBIT FROM TACOMA City Will Make Showing of 3ranufac- tures and Other Advantages. Tacoma has advised the cxhibitsde partment that a special exhibit is being prepared that will attract widespread at tention. The exhibit will consist mostly of Tacoma's manufactures, which are va ried. A collection of large photographs Is being collected to show the city's great shipping. Its manufacturing Interests, its sightly residence section, and its late ac quisition from the National Government", Point Defiance Park, on Puget Sound, said to be the finest city park In the world. An effort Is being made to secure for exhibit purposes the Tozler collection of Indian baskets and curios, now In the Fer ry Museum, at-Tacoma. This collection is the finest of its kind In existence, and has a minimum value of 550,000. If permis sion Is secured to remove this valuable collection, which belongs to Captain To zler. of the United States revenue cutter Bear, It will be housed In a typical pot lachc building on the Lewis and Clark Fair grounds. IK TUB AHMOKY ON TUESDAY minstrels." .V. -.tl--tAjL,-.-..iCM MUSTNOTBETftRDY Exposition Issues Edict to . . 3000 Exhibitors. CANNOT COME AFTER MAY 1 Director of Exhibits Dosch Slakes Final Order for the Cancellation of All Space Unclaimed hy . First of Month. The exhibit. department of the Lewis and Clark. Exposition sent out a final edict, yesterday. It is concise and to the point. It states In so many words that exhibitors who have not put their exhibit space Into use by May 1 will forfeit It and It will forthwith be ap portioned among the firms on the cum bersome reserve list. In view of the fact that there are 30Q0 names on the exhibit list and the total amount of space reaches well Into the hundreds of thousands of square feet It is only logical to assume that there will be some forfeitures. It is not believed, however, that the forfeitures will be many in face of the strong competition that has been experienced. The number that will allow their awards to lapse Is a matter that fails to worry the exhibits department. Di rector H. E. Dosch says he Is dally be seeched by representatives of big- firms that are anxious to get a foot ing and not only can he secure exhib its for indefinite area but could actual ly dispose of it for a good price. Nearly a hundred exhibitors shipped their goods .during the past week and many special representatives arrived on the grounds In charge of displays to ar range for Installation and the building of booths. In face of the edict just Is sued, this week and next will see the arrival of an army of exhibitors and many hu.idred cars of exhibits. "The greatest danger of delaying the Fair lies In the late exhibit Instal lation," said Colonel Dosch in explain ing' the order issued by him. If we would permit it exhibitors would be trail ing along until the middle of August. That is the reason we are drawing the line. Any exhibit that is not in place when the Exposition opens will never be In place. Not a single stroke of fin ishing work will be allowed after the opening of the Fair. NORWEGIANS FIX UPON DAY. They Arrange for Convention and Will Have Concert. The Norwegian residents of this city who have In hand the preparations for the great convention of the Norwegian singing societies have arranged nearly all the details of the event. The convention will be held on August 27, 28 and 29. Au gust 2S will be the big day of the gather ing, as the monster concert at Festival Hall at the Exposition will then .take place. Four hundred singers will "take part In the concert, which will be directed by Rev, Mr. Sperati. Scandinavian songs and music will be the feature of the programme. The local committee has engaged Par sons Hall as headquarters for the visi tors. It is estimated that at least 2000 persons from points outside of Portland will be in attendance at the convention. The visitors will not only be royally en tertained at the Fair, but will be shown all the sights of the city and vicinity, including an excursion on steamers up the Columbia. The date foe the Portland meeting was fixed at the Everett convention last year, though Norwegians of this city had been working on the project for several years. The local entertainment committee has collected several thousand dollars and has everything well In hand to give lis countrymen a magjilficent reception. It promises to be one of the most success ful conventions of the Summer. dome friction has been caused among the Scandinavians of Portland by tho ac tion of the Swedish residents of this city in securing from the Fair management the date of July 29 as Scandinavian day. As the term "Scandinavian" Includes" Norwegians and Danes as well as Swedes, the Norwegians particularly are dis pleased, fearing this step may interfere somewhat with the plans for their big convention In August, on which they have been working for years. WILIj EXHIBIT OYSTER BEDS Puget Sound Growers. Arrange for Interesting Display at Fair. A large oyster bed has been arranged as an exhibit for the Lewis and Clark Exposition by a number of Puget So'und oystergrowers. A large zinc frame will be made for the exhibit. In this soil, gravel, and beach sands from Puget Sound will be placed. The bed will be made to re semble, as closely as possible, an oys ter bed. Oysters in various stages of development will be planted and fresh sea water will be supplied, and In this manner oysters -will be growing: on the grounds throughout the Exposition pe riod. The association malting the novel display is composedi of the leading growers of Thurston and Mason Coun ties, in Washington.

San Francisco, April IS, 1905. To Woodard, Clarke & Co.: Dear Sirs As agent for the Fulton Compounds In Portland, there are some facts in the Call office' In this city that should interest you and the edi tor of The Oregonlnn, as well as news paper men generally. We copy now from a letter from Clifford House, of the Call: "That Bright's Disease and Diabetes are now curable it is w;ell within the province of some of us In the Call office to know that it is true. Mr. Edward Short, of this department, although given up by his physicians as a victim of Diabetes, got well. The mother of one of the editorial staff has also re covered from Diabetes. This was so conclusive that I told a friend. In Du lutc, Minn., who had Bright's Disease. He recovered." We will aloo add that ex-Supreme Judge BIgelow, in the Call building, is a late recovery.

Clarivp fc Co., Agents INDIAN WOMEN. How They Live and Keep Well. Indian women as a rule are healthy and strong because of the out-door life they lead. Sleeping in tents, as they do they breathe good air day and night, and because they have knowl edge of many of the indigenous plants "which have great medicinal virtues, they keep well. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is not an Indian medicine, because it was prescribed by a-prominent physician in his private practice for many years, and its principal in- fredient3 are listed in the United States harmacopceia, and at least one of the ingredients is used almost wholly by the most eminent epecialists in women's diseases and recommended by profes sors of medical colleges. At the same time Dr. Pierce believes that he has a most valuable secret in the combina tion of its principal ingredients which actual experience has p?oven will cure most every woman of those ilia so common to woman -kind. Some of the roots and herbs entering in to its composition are dug up by the squaws on the several reservations in the spring of the year and shipped to Dr. Pierce's Laboratory in the fall. The best of them are assorted and used in his Buffalo Laboratory, the World's Dispensary. The iV. jT. Journal in a recent article says : For the purpose of showing the purity and honesty of his medicines, the "Fa vorite Prescription" and the "Golden Medical Discovery," Dr. K. V. Pierce has thrown open to public inspection his laboratories and works in Buffalo. At any time during the day visitors are made welcome and shown through the establishment by competent guides. These guides explain the detailed and scientific work oi the skilled chemists and just how and of what the modern "patent medicine" is made. To eyery visitor is also explained the system by which every user of Doctor Pierce's medicines receives individual care from one or more specialists. Dr. Pierce was a member of Congress needs wait for September's coming be fore he may devour one of the Inviting bivalves. To people of the Middle West who have seen the oyster only In Its "shucked" state, this exhibit should prove of unusual interest. Wasco Has Eye on Prize. HOOD RIVER. Or.. April 22. (Special.) "Wasco County will make a prlzewin nlng exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Ex position," remarked County Judge A. E. Lake, who was In the city the other day. "We have the resources to make the best exhibit in the state, and we are going In to win the prizes," continued the Judge. Tho Wasco County Court Is enthusiastic over the preparation of the display at Portland, and as the county is out of debt, no expense will be spared to make the best showing possible at the Portland Fair. The county already has 300 boxes of Hood River apples in cold storage, which will supply the fruit exhibit until apples ripen late In the Autumn. Wool will also form an attractive fea ture of the Wasco County exhibit. A IN A WEEK tiSKeKxsS- 'rz - f scsz: rc--- Wa guarantee cure in every case wa unueria&a or tuuo dm ico. vonsuxia Hon free.
