I W.0. Olafke of Qlafka Co.. local
commission merchants, says:
To dispel all the talk about a lata
InUrrlew I would aar that my recent
ra6r"rorniWerarcara 61 apples from
Hood .River for shipment outside was
perfectly satisfactory, the culls man-
tloned being only six boxes Instead of
all being culls except that number. The
six boxes of culls -were sent to me sev
eral days after the Initial shipment and
I mentioned them Only to show bow they
!S.JMm.!n.Jnft JLhls-markatWbat-f
meant to aay was that the culls were all
sent Into this market, while the good
stocks were sent elsewhere."
Durlns the hurry and nervousness at.
tendant upon the examination of the
police applicants last Saturday, c H,
Tlchenor. who failed with, an average
nf to ner cent, says he carelessly ana
wired a couple of questions wrong, and
now he la sorry. He Is not only sorry,
but he wants the civil service' commie
loner to overlook his carelessness and
rive him a re-marking which would al
low him the necessary it per ceni 10
become eligible.
The cane is unique, Inasmuch ss all
the officials are certain that Mr. Tlche
nor'a representations ara true, but the
proposition of re-marking his papers Is
something which can hardly oe aone in
fairness to. the others who also failed.
There would Immediately be a com
plaint from all of the unsuccessful ap
plicants "that they were In a hurry and
really didn't mean what they said."
Mr. Tlchenor was busy this morning
seeking audiences with Mayor Wil
liams, Secretary Potter and the mem
bers of the commission. He aaka a re
consideration of his papers, but it Is
extremely unlikely thst such will be
done.
Vu Ob Voce Before.
What makes the case the more pecu
liar is the fact that Mr. Tichenor Is
known to be a capable and efficient offi
cer. He served under a previous ad
ministration and made an excellent rec
ord, and as he only needed to have
answered one more question correctly
to have passed, his predicament is un
usually aggravating.
One of the questions to which Mr.
Tlchenor calls attention for a reconsid
eration is No. 8, which wss In effect:
Is It wrong for a police officer to ac
cept money or gifts for services per
formed whUe on duty?" This he ane
swered Tea." and it is claimed that
almost any child should have known
that the correct answer wss "No."
T was simply In a hurry." said the
perspiring officer today. '1 was com
pelled to be st a trial soon, ana omy
had 40 minutes on the examination. I
knew differently, of course, and can
only , explain my answer by the haste
which wss necessary."
Seats Wlta Commissioners.
Mayor' Williams suggested a confer
ence with the civil service commission
ers, and this afternoon Mr. Tlchenor
was looking them up to appeal bia case.
It is hardly thought that they can ao
cede to any such request, however, as
It would be unfair to tho others.
Mr. Tichenor wss appointed tempor
arily only several daya since, and would
have been appointed to active duty had
the fatal examlnation...ot.sroyeilta-ba
hls"wateriob'. He wss marked physio
ally perfect, and only mlased five points
in the written examination to entitle
him to the ranks of the ellglbles.

Miss Elesnor Haber's recital laat
evening In Parsons' hall waa a success,
both socially and artistically. A large
and fashionable audience gathered to
listen to Miss Haber's original dialogues,
which had the advantage of being thor
oughly new, and gave the charming little
rtreas an opportunity to ahow her
versatility. Miss Haber's manner is
easy and natural and aheh as a nalvette
of expression which Is very taking. .
ine nrst number, "Mrs. Benton's
Easter Bonnet" wss encored and Miss
Haber responded with a skit which wss
much appreciated by' the fathers and
mothers present for she portrayed to
the life a J In the morning ' conversa
tion between- a ' wide-awake I -year-old
boy and his sleepy- father.'. , -
Inline Book Csnvasser" Miss Haber
portrayed ' the breesy, confidential, in
sinuating -manner-of the-smeitnair "lii
elerer way.
"Graduation' showed the "sweet girl"
going over her strong-minded esssy for
the lsst time, when her lover suddenly
appears, and by a clever russ disperses
all the high Ideals of slrrgle blessedness
which shs has struggled to acquire.
"Buying Theatre Tickets," a clever
satire on the lnconslderateness of feml
nlnity In the business world, waa en
cored and Miss Haber recited a hapiY
little negro sketch. "Ike, Speak Up, and
Spreo Tourself."

TmDortant changes in the clans Te-
oently submitted by Director-uenerai
Ooode, of .the local Xewls and Clarks
corporation will probably be made to
morrow so far as concerns- the Lie wis
and Clarke state commission. These
changea will Involve two chief matters
the alteration of the building plana,
and the scooe of the Dowers to be exer
cised by the director-general. Amended
drafts of the rules and regulations and
also of the building plans have been pre
pared and It Is expected will be endorsed
at the state commission's meeting to
morrow.
The point In controversy appears to
bs the conjoining of the stats commis
sion with the corporation In a manner
to give the commission co-ordinate pow
er with the corporation, upon the con
sideration of the fact that the commis
sion Is responsible for the expenditure
of 00,00ft of the state's money, and
feels that It muat have auch discre
tionary powers aa enable It to govern
the payment of the funds and to retain
auch control over tho structures aa will
conform with what the members feel
Is their duty to ths taxpayers.
To Scolds Blsetrlo Xlght Qostloa.
One of the recommendations to be
made tomorrow. Is that a committee of
three members of the commission and
three of the corporation be namedt to
look Into the matter of ths electric
lighting. Ths provision for expending
200,000 for Installation of plant and
maintenance during the alx montha of
the fair, the 1100,000 being one fourth
of the total sum of $800,000 unprovided
for by both the commission snd the
corporation, will be amended so ss to
virtually destroy it and the committee
of alx to devise further plains therefor
will be Ita substitute.
One proposition to be adopted will
be that the plana for all buildings in
clude cost of electric wiring and the
incandescent lights, the contractor him
self furnishing them.
Another demsnd the commission will
make on the corporation will be that,
first, a deed cleared of all Incumbrances
be shown for the exposition site, snd,
second, thst the corporation sub-lease
all lands to the commission upon which
are to stand the buildings the commls
slon is to erect

TO REARRANGE
- SICK BENEFITS
The police and Are committees of ths
executive board will hold a Joint session
tomorrow evening to arrange a sys
tem or sick benefits for members of
either department who are Injured In the
performance of their duty. At present
there , is much complaint at the systsm
of dispensing these sick benefits, and the
Idea of the committee is to arrange a
certain monthly benefit applicable alike
to both policemen and members of the
Are department '
Under a former charter the police and
the Are funds were separate, the Are
benefits being H0 per month and the po
lice Denent payments 2 a month. Still
later the two funds were again altered
In some respect, and without changing
the original rules a nreman could draw a
total of $65 a month $25 from the police
fund and (40 from-the-flre- fund. " Then
the two funds were combined by the last
charter, but there were no new rules, and
it 1s now the Intention to provide for thla
deficiency.
The question was brought up at the
session of the police committee of the
executive "board this morning, and It
seemed to be the bre-yalllng opinion that
an average of HO a month for policemen
and Aremen alike would be most equita
ble. , ,

The commission will also aak that. In
all matters of prime Importance relating
to the policy of msnagement. Joint con
currence be secured of both commis
sion snd corporation through their pres
idents in addltlgii..tolheappj:oyal...Dt
the director-general. It Is felt that the
rules as now standing eliminate the
commission from control of ths exposi
tion to too great an extent.
The request thst came from Director-
General Ooode was that the commis
sion employ the corporation as Ita con
tracting agent for all construction, to
which the commission is disposed to
demur, expecting to employ its own su
perintendent to supervise all building
operations.
In various features lesa Important
the commission will ssk for revision of

EPWORTII LEAGUERS
IN SESSION TONIGHT
That the recent ordera sent out from
the war department to the recruiting
offices throughout-the United States to
do all In their- power to lncreaae the
number of -enlistments is not without
results is shown by the work of the lo
cal station. ' Last month only three
men ; Joined the rsnks of Uncle Sam
through the Portland recruiting station,
but during the six days of October 11
able-bodied men have applied to the
officers here for examination, six of
whom have already enlisted.
During the past year the ranks of the
regular army have been decreased no
rapidly that the war .office is somewhat
worried, and men for service in tli
Philippines are very much in demand.
The ordera recently issued state that
tl)a..enlli.tmBat.aflmlnftrs..wllLbo dlflrl
continued for a while, it is tnougnt
by many Of the regulara that there are
enough "children" now In the service.
while men over 21 years of age are be-i-nmlnr
nearlv as nlentlful as hen'a
teeth. The Infantry branch of the serv-1
Ice Is said to need msny thousands of
men in order that it may be brought up
to Ita peace footing.
The three men who enlisted at the
Portland ststlon last month were sent
to the Presidio, and were there as
signed to cavalry regiments. Hereaftwr
recruits for the mounted branch of the
aervice will be aent from North Paclflo
coaat stations to Angel Island, Cel.,
where they will be assigned to various
regiments.
During the past month 21 men were
enlisted at the Seattle station, and two
at the Tacoma office. It Is said that
the number of idle men In and around
the first named Bound city has caused
the number of recruits at that station
to be larger than It has been for some
time. Last month Capt William Wal
lace and Corp. Orandville of the Port
land station, spent ten days canvass
ing Salem, Albany, Eugene and Ash
land without securing a single soldier.
- "Too much hop-picking," Is said to)
be accountable for this poor luck.

The teacher of a country school asked
his pupils, one day. If any of them
could tell him who Joan of Aro was.
The question was followed by pro-

stared at one another, aa if seeking the
