POPULAR
The "craftsman" or "quaint" designs in furniture are ,the result of an endeavor to make furniture, which
should be at the same time simple, structural and practical, to meet all requirements as regards comfort, ap
pearance and durability. The designs of today are reproductions of the original old handicrafts devoid of
all ornamentation a natural outgrowth of the needs of the people. The most characteristic feature of the
craftsman furniture is the finish, of which many have, at different times, been applied to complete its sim
plicity, the most popular of which have been the "fumed" and the "weathered," the former especially so. This
beautiful finish, like its name, is of a soft and pleasing tone of brown, which adds to the oak a homelike attractiveness that cannot be impaired by wear. The "quaint designs" are well adapted
to those rooms in the home that demand furniture that is durable and practical. Our showing of "quaint furniture" in the fumed oak includes the most characteristic and the truest repro
ductions of the foremost designers and builders of "craftsman furniture" and includes pieces for the library, the living-room, the dining-room, the hall and the den. ; We are exclusive Portland
agents for the Stickley Bros.' productions of "quaint furniture"-in the fumed oak. j

Chemists Mix "Dope
of Prodigious Power
Intruded as a Deodorant, It Smells
to Hitch Heaven, and Even Put
Kata to Flight.
POR several days a fearful odor has
pervaded the intersection of East
Burnslde street and Grand avenue; so
fearful. In fact, that even rats which
lived In the basements were compelled
to seek other quarters, and a valuable
Jfiog belonging to "Billy" Mall dropped
dead while passing that way. Nobody
could tell where the odor came from,
but the secret finally leaked out. Arch
itect Otto Kleemann and V. 9. Love, a
druggist, we-o responsible.
Mr. Kleemann recently received from
"Alaska a valuable fur rue:, that had
been perfumed with seven kinds of fish
oil, to make it acceptable to the nos
trils of the savage maiden who was the
Hist owner. The combined flavors
were unpleasant to the civilized nose,
jto Kleemann and Iove conspired to
gether to produce a ' perfume that
would outdistance the fish oil, and they
succeeded beyond their expectations.
Itoth being: expert chemists, they con
cluded that the fish oil could not stand
n combination of carbolic acid and
chloride, of lime.
The result was unexpected. A fear
ful fras was generated that filled the
Hurkhard building: and permeated the
entire neighborhood. It was too vig
orous for use on the rug. and the lat
ter still smells as it did of yore.

fcr on Triple Alliance.
HOME, Oct. 50 The Oerman Foreign
Secretary, liorr von Tschirsky. drove to
Die Foreign Office this morning and vis
ited Foreign Minister Tittoni. with whom

Official qyarters here believe that beyond
any doubt the general relations of .the
powers composing the triple alliance and
the best means of consolidating the alli
ance and rendering It more effective in
the interests of peace were subjects on

Later In the day Signor Tittoni returned
the visit of Herr von Tschirsky at the
German Embassy, where they remained
in conference alone for about an hour.
CAPTURED IN A SHACK.
Five Suspects Are Held for Japanese
Bank Robbery.
SAN FRANCISCO. Oct. 20. In a raid
made by the police at an early hour
this morning five persons were arrest
ed on suspicion that they may have
been connected wTith the robbery and
murder at the Klmmon Ginko, or Jap
anese bank, a few weeks ago. The five
placed in Jail are John. Richard. Will
iam and Edna Meyers, brothers and
sisters, and Richard Doyle. The Mey
ers were captured after the officers had
surrounded during the night the shack
in which they lived on Rincon Hill.
Doylo was arrested a short time later
at Seventh and Harrison streets.
The information against the Meyers and
Doyle was brought to police headquarters
by Mrs. John Maynard. who gave the
Meyers family shelter after the fire. She
based her allegations on an alleged con
versation by the Meyers which she is said
to have overheard just before the robbery
at the Japanese bank. The police allege
that the Meyers have been harboring ex
convicts, one of whom was Doyle.

LONDON. Oct. The British and
Russian governments have agreed to
make a joint loan to Persia of S2.000.000
to enable the Persian government to
meet some of its most pressing needs.

nificant of the improvement in the rela
tions ' between Russia and Great Britain
and an indicative of a probable friendly
arrangement in the future by which
each country will undertake not to inter
fere with the others claimed sphere of
interest in Persia.

Suit for Divorce
Sstrnnged ' Husband ' and ' Wlf e Re
united Through -'Love for Their
children.
BECAUSE of their love for their two
children, aged 4 and 8 years, Edtth
M. May and Charles Dr May decided to
fotget the past and again take up the
journey along life's highway aTs lovers.
The divorce proceedings that were in
stituted in the Circuit Court last Fri
day by Mrs. May were withdrawn yes
terday by her attorney, W. S. Hufford.
The Mays were married at "Vancou
verWash., about 11 years ago. In the
complaint filed asking for the divorce,
Mrs. May declared that tier husband
sometimes looked too long upon the
beer when it foamed, that he would
come home and proceed to act in a
way that would frighten to death any
nearby dove of peace, and that once
upon a time he allowed her toTeel that
his hand was not an -eiderdown sofa
cushion.
When May was presented ' with "a
copy of the complaint he was sur
prised. Soon afterward the twp fami
lies brought the warring husband and
wife together. The babies were at the
meeting, and their love for their chil
dren caused peace to come over the
troubled household, and Attorney Huf
ford was Informed that he could not
withdraw the suit any too soon to suit
everybody concerned.
Famous Selby Abbey Burns.
SELBY, England. Oct. 20. The famous
old Abbey Church here, known as Selby
Abbey, is a total ruin, the result of a fire
which broke out in the organ chamber
at midnight. The local fire brigade was
unable to quell the flames and the brig
ades from York and Leeds were unable to
save the historic building, only the bare
walls being left.
Selby Abbey was considered to be ona
of the finest monastery edifices in Eng
land. It was founded in the Twelfth Cen
tury by the Benedictines and part of the
original nave and transepts survived. The
Abbey possessed some interesting sculp
tures and tombs of .the Abbots who pre
sided over its destinies during the rule of
the Normans. -

Divorce Suit
Bnshand Is ..Served-With-Paper In
the Poorhouse Will Contest the
Case.
WHILE Alfred B. Wilcox was wend
ing his way to the County Hos
pital, Mrs. Wilcox ' was hunting up a
lawyer in order to bring a suit for a
divorce. And thereby hangs a tale of
a father-in-law's devotion to the wom
an in the case. Wilcox was served
with a copy of the complaint yester
day afternoon by Deputy Sheriff Kelly.
Married IS years ago at Davis, 111.,
the Wilcoxes are said to have lived hap
pily together until a short time ago.
The husband and defendant in the case
is suffering from a peculiar affliction,
having no control of the muscles of
his face and head when he attempts
to speak, but he declares that he had
no disease at the time of his marriage.
Ajshort time ago Wilcox's father died
ajQCornellus, Or. His daughter-in-law,
Mrs. Wilcox; had been taking care of
him for months, and after the old man
had passed away, it was discovered
that- lie had. willed nearly everything
to her.
. Wilcox now' declares that- his wife
simply wants to be rid of him sd she
can do as she likes with her newly
acquired wealth. He has employed At
torney Jay Upton to see if he does not
have some rights in the matter, and
the divorce proceedings will be con
tested. The Wilcoxes have three chil
dren, aged 12. 14 and 16 years. The
husband Is said to have sent word to
his wife yesterday, before he knew
that he had been sued for a divorce,
that he would like to see her, but she
Is said to have Informed him that he
"needn't come around."
The Wilcox whose estate Is alleged
to have caused the domestic strife was
for many years editor of . the Rock
