TAX ORDINANCE Palmist Who Gives Free Advice Mast Pay Tax or Quit. Larsen, the palmist, who had de clared that he was Immune from .the occupation tax ordinance, called at the City , Treasurer's office late yesterday and paid. bin license. Larsen had pre viousjy refused to pay the tax on the ground that he waa not subject to It under th provisions of the law. "Th law," he told - the license of ficers, "doe not say that a man who does not charge a fee for his services must pay a license, I charge no fee for my readings and I see no reason why I have to pay the tax." Larsen learned afterward that he had to pay. . While the ordinance placed him on the exempt list bo far aa the fee question Went, it held hlra liable regard ing display and advertising. Mr. Lar Ben had been doing a great deal of ad' Yerusing, and the license officers de cided that he could be made to pay a license under the advertising section of the ordinance. It waa not necessary to taxe any legal action against him, how ever, aa JArsen changed hia mind and paid th license. INJURED IN ACCIDENT.

I The "daya of forty-nine" were re- enacted on a smaller scale than the original California- production in the streets of Portland this morning. Business men, commercial travelers. messenger boys and a watnan vending newspapers got down on their hands and knees and scratched for gold-dust with their finger nails at the corner of Fourth and Washington streets at 11 o'clock today. Some 140 worth of the precious metal was scraped irom the pavement and additional flakes of the bright yel low metal fell Into cracks in the walk, there to remain until erosion carries them away or active mining operations, with modern appliances, is undertaken. Philip Strain, a mining man from the vicinity of Grants Pass , who recently discovered large quantities of placer gold on his Southern Oregon claim, was standing at the Fourth and Washington corner displaying samples of his "dust" to a friend. A gust of wind rounded 'the building and tore the bottle In which hia wealth waa contained from his Hand. When the glass struck the stone pave ment it flew into a thousand fragments and Instantly the hunt for gold began. Through the kindness of those near who assisted in the search. Mr. Strain was enabled to recover dust to the amount of $40, the original valuation having been $60. THINGS PUBLIC SHOULDN'T KNOW Mayor Gives Indorsement to Secret Meetings of Executive Board.

"If a person demanded admission to the meeting, would he be able to pads the doorkeeper?" "That depends,'," laughed the Mayor. "I can assure you, though, that so far a I am concerned the meeting will not be public." 1 " Mrs. Patrick Campbell bade adieu to Portland' theatre-goer last night and tt must said that the entertainments Sh gav wer enjoyul le. "Aunt Jean Bie," played as the flusla of her en gagement, cannot be said to be of a very; strong, nature, although the. build ing of th. story is delicate and able. Evening attire, an army of tine linen and a lot of society talk is th principal maka-up of th dranm. Th character f Mr, llaltou is assay 1 by MrsrCamp bell, and In two places she rlaea to a high degree of art The scene sur rounding the play are beautiful. One Is pathetlo In the extiume, where a re cital Is given of the sin of a woman who had died. And in romedy touches Mrs; Campbell Is excellent. The com pany was very capable lust night, but It Is believed that better satisfaction Would result' should mure action and spirit be put Into the dialogue. Teaterday afternoon ' The Second Mr. Tanquerty" waa given to a very aristo cratic audience, and the preHentation was on of great merit. There Is no ques tion Of the valu it Mrs. Campbell aa a finished portrayer of high-class char acters, and It I a credit to Mr. liellig of th Marquam that so pleasing a set of entertainments were arranged for hi patrons. " Two weeks ago Kose Coghlan did, "Th Second Mrs. Tanqueray" In a manner very satisfactory to everybody. Ther I a great Idlffert te between the play a rendered yesterday and that of a fortnight, ago. Miss 'ognln was good, very good. : Who will deny that Mrs. Campbell wa nut u little better? It is a different school tuno two wo-, men represent Rose Coghlan Is all acting, while Mrs. Campbell Is riven to pose. The story of the piny haa been often told aud need no repeating. The English company waa very capable, but an audience haa to become educated to fully appreciate It value. "Too slow," was heard many t,lmK yesterday, and the complaint seemed to he Just. Too much matter of fact and not enough action Is the reafr, crltlclnm of the peo ple who supportMrs. Campbell. All In all, the three entertainments given by Mrs. .Campbell were of high quality and thtlr repetition, would be appreciated.

The eucoeae attained by the talented young star now playing an engagement at Raker's Theatre Is due to his persis tent efforts and artistic methods. His gentleness 'and consideration to the members of his company haa en deared him to every ono ami they relate many Instances of his good nature and gentle disposition. Among his strongest characteristics is hia uncompromising intolerance, of in temperance and he would not submit to the least evidence of it on the part of anyone in his employ. In passing it may be said that he has not had occasion to declare his position during the present season and rejoices In the fact that his present company Is in all respects the most congenial aa well as the most capable he haa ever Had. An amusing instance of his lack of resentment is related by one of the gen tlemen of tho company who has been with Hr. Stuart since he made his first venture as a star. Last season a young man of the com pany had the misfortune to Imbibe a little too freely during the afternoon and reported at night considerably un der the Influence. Mr. Stuart waa very angry, Justly regarding the condition of the young man as an Insult to himself and his company. He would not permit him to. appear and ordered him out of the theatre, saying: "I don't want you to come near me again; that aettles you." Tho chagrin and remorse of the young fellow were apparent to' all and some of the more sympathetic appealed to the star, but Stuart was Inflexible, declar ing that he could not afford to take chances on a man who had no more control than this man evinced over a vulgar appetite. The following morning at rehearsal arrangements wer made to "carry out" the part the youngi man had been play ing, when, much to the surprise of Btar and company, out stepped the cul prit at his cue and began speaking his line. "I thought I told you I didn't want -you here any more," roared the Indig nant manager star. "You did. Mr. Stuart, but Tm not go ing to take that as final, for I'll never rapoat my offenae, I promise you." Stuart paused a moment, evidently embarrassed, thon in an almost appeal ing tone said to the assemblage: "What do you think of that; I've given thla man his discharge and he won't accept it. What can I do?" "Let him stay!" they all replied. "All right," said Stuart, "but no more booze, young man and that settles it."

It. is also stated that if there were not any intermissions between the acts of the piece a large percentage of the spectators would be so Weak from laughter that they would be in no condition to go home.
