Sheriff McLean arrested three men in the room back of the Parker house saloon shortly before the noon hour yesterday on a charge of gambling. The men are W. B. Dibble, one of the lessees of the hotel, James McDonald, said to be the swamper in the saloon, and a third man whose name was not se- cured. The three men will be ar raigned, this morning at 10 o'clock. McDonald did not give bail yester day, though the two others put up $100 each in justice court and were given their liberty. The matter will necessarily go to the grand jury, if Justice Goodman this morning find that there Is sufficient evidence to warrant holding them. The men are said to have been playing "rounce," a game that is usually played for mon ey, and it Is understood there was money some 40 cents on the table hen the men were placed under arrest- It's been a long time since any gamblers have been arrested, and tht little "raid" yesterday will either create amusement or fear in the hearts of all the other gamblers in the city. Just why the arrest of yes terday was made may be difficult to fathom, unless by chance it may mean that the sheriff's office is final- going to do its duty in the gamb- ing matter. The lenees of the Parker house are new men in the city. Perhaps they haven't got in the "inside" yet. There probably isn't a saloon in the city where gambling games are not of nightly and daily occurrence, and there are any cigar stores that don't have the games they have not yet been discovered. One or two of the principal cigar stores are merely blinds for the real purpose of ganv bling. Over on Bond street are one or two big gambling houses that play stiff games. It is in one of these games that It is said one of the dep uty sheriffs used to take pleasure in occasionally trying his luck, accord ing to the police. The facts of the matter are that gambling it going on all over the city, .but in a subdued way except in a few notable in stance. That s what makes the arrest of the Parker saloon contingent ail the more mysterious. To reach th Parker house it is necessary to go directly past the seven lotteries, too, The lotteries and the big games have not been disturbed thus far, Boy To Reform School- Henry Baack. the 'young fellow who was arrested Monday night while in company with a 16-year-old girl, was yesterday sentenced to the reform school by Judge k Trenchard of the county court. He isnow 19 years old and will stay there for two years, probably, which may seem a trivial punishment to many! Under all the circumstances it may not have been possible to .punish him "more heavily. The . relatives of the girl urged that she be permitted to re main with them here and this will be done, during her good behavior. She a nice looking young girl with rela tives of the utmost respectability. G. Kilpack of the Boys' & Girls' Home of Portland was in the city esterday and will probably remain he're for several days. He is here to look into several matters. Phone Or Write. Phone Main 881 or write F. A. Fisher, Twelfth street, about Ideal Vacuum Cleaners. Earl A. Fisher. F. L SMITH MEAT CO.

O. U. W. hall last evening, when Herman Emke, past grand master of the State for the Sons of Herman was the honored guest of the hour. There were music, fraternal addresses and generous refreshments to mark the flying moments and withal, a thor oughly good time. And none enj'oy ed it more than the gentleman from Portland. School Exhibit Nearly In Superintendent Clark said yester day that the teachers have nearly all handed in the work for the Seattle exposisjon. Some of the worn is really very fine, especially in geogra phical and nature studies. On many of the peapers the pupils have paint ed scenes or objects illustrative of the subject being studied. Waters colors are used by many of the older pupils. It is noticeable that the two or three Chinese boys in the upper grades do especially fine work, es pecially in painting and in their handwriting, Teachers' Institute v . The Clatsop County Teachers' In stitute wiH open today in the county court house", where fine preparations have been made to hold the three days' sessions.

I . . iL. . lane part, it is mamiaiury on ihc part of the teachers throughout the county and city to attend the sessions of the institute, unless good reason s given for absence, and a large at tendance is assured. The Human Appetite. Of all the whimsical, shifting, unre liable, treacherous, exacting things '"n the world, the human appetite for the right thing to eat is, perhaps, the most unreasonable and imperious- There are those who humor it; oth ers who defy it; and all men are more or less inclined to treat it with con sideration. To find a place where these varying attitudes may be fos tered, at the least cost in each case, and yet keep the appetite in proper and peaceful subjection, is always desirable information. One place that is conceded as perfectly adapted ts this, is the Palace Restaurant, just opposite the Page building, on Com mercial street, in this city. Try 't once, and patronize it always; that is the rule of the Palace. REALTY TRANSFERS I Improvements Contracted . ! N. W.
