A large force of men Is working night and day in transforming the . store formerly occupied by Fellows as a gro cery, at 309 Washington street. Into a handsome vaudeville theatre. The place will be named the park theatre. . Con tinuous vaudeville 'will be given there. It 1U be under the management of Frank Monroe, formerly of Seattle. ."We are going to try to open the Park ' Saturday afternoon If the men who are working night and day can get it ready. . We have ordered handsome opera seats, but at the opening we will be compelled to use-ordinary chairs, be cause the others have not yet arrived. The Park theatre will be on the long circuit, which Includes II houses, from Kansas City to San Francisco. ., We will give Ave performances each day, two In the afternoon and three in the evening. In order to make the place as safe as possible we have decided not to build a gallery, and have made arrangements to have a special exit on Sixth street." Simon Bros, of Missoula, Mont., are preparing to construct a new theatre at the corner of -Fourth and Stark streets. The ground upon which the new struc ture will be erected is now occupied by the Omnibus, Baggage & Transfer com pany, which will move to its new quar-. ters about March 1. Fart of the old structure will be utilised in the new one. : ., ; . MYSTERIOUS BASKET A! ITS LEGEND l s. sows tktes euu to xxsf TXB SECXET BUT XJSTI BUT A rAxcrrux, taib wkzox xs was ATOfO Tr FOB XX! XXXT H. S. Rowe, general agent of the Mil waukee, has in his ofllce an Indian , basket concerning which he has little to say, though it Is a somewhat un usual specimen of basket work. In- rteed the arrival from the East of Mr. Rowe and the appearance of this mys terious basket were so nearly simul taneous that fellow general agents sue- Jectcd a prise and. tried to satisfy, their, curiosity. To the present time a pro found silence has reigned concerning the source of the basket, where it was . made and by what means it came into the possession of Mr. Rowe. From the else and strange weight of the basket It was assumed that some new method of manufacture bad been discovered aftd basket workers journeyed to view the thing and came away mystified. By this time Rowe'a basket is a byword on rill- road row and with the ouery "'How old is Annr is passing into the limbo of the Inexplicable, v , ' I ' After visiting with the Texas livestock delegation last night Mr Rowe was this : morning in a most genial mood and v(hen the basket question was again broached he said: ''tci'iiiV-'-j-j-: .-&. r "Yes, It is a mystery. I can vpt di vulge where the basket came frim or v what tribe of Indian I mean whomanu ' factured the trophy, which I may say was- secured with huge toll and; much expense. But there is a wonderful and romantic waterfall called the Minnehaha, near it In a pool of purest emeralld dally bathed the Indian queen for whom the ' falls were later named. Anrt I have heard that In a moment of Inspiration :. Minnehaha, seised the rusheA and the reeds of the smiling pool and fashioned wonderful basket which wai reverently kept by her descendents utll one day the god of the tribe was enaged at somo remark of the chief and sidzed the beau tiful basket and bore it away, and to make its destruction sure gave it to a ' Minneapolis railroad marl. Now that Is all something I have hfard, perhaps-1 dreamed it, but anyway there is the basket, and let me tell yfou, when the of flee is quiet at night and the street Is lonely, you can hear th ripple of laugh ing water somewhere jst as if It were In the room; you can sonfetlmes, but not al ways, dui occasional ir, hear a low musi cal tinkle and splasti like a weary god dess was slipping info her solltnrv nool. and even I have fancled that a dim mist hangs over the basket sometimes, and vimosi invisiDie wreathing show In the vapor like the slow swaylngs of silken draperies. Now Idon't know but wh4t this Is all Imagination, but I would not take a thousand dtollars for that basket, Just the same, and there never has a man showed up Jiiere yet that had a bit of the artistic in him.. that was not strangely drawrA to that basket, some- 1IU VT f CASTOR I A - For Inffanti and Children.

Acting under Instructions from Dep uty District Attorney Spencer,- Harbor master Ben Blglln yesterday notified J. Pearson, local agent of the Pacific branch of the seamen's union, that in order to continue in the business of shipping sailors he would have to pro cure a license the same as the sailor boarding-house keepers. . . Mr. . Pearson . replied .that , he . would only be in charge of the office but a short time, a new man having been elected to succeed him, but ventured the opinion tha the union is exempt from taking out 'a license. 'He stated that he would Investigate the matter and take ltup with headquarters offl clols, who are stationed at San Fran cisco. ; . Sullivan ft Grant are required to pay a license of 1600 a year, in addition to putting up a bond of f 5,000. However, tbe-y conduct a boafrdlng-house, whereas the union is enaared exclusively in the .business of supplying coasters with' sailors for whom no fee is charged. The union has a yearly contract with the Pacific Coast Shippers': association to furnish men for ll the vessels which it controls, plying up and down the coast . To both interested parties the arrangement is said to have given en tire satisfaction. The union has profited by being able to build up a strong or ganisation, and the shipowners have been enabled to get ..crews whenever they were needed. , Prior to the establishment of the local branch of the seamen's union the skip pers of the coasters were either obliged to send to San; Francisco or to the Sound for men, or get them through Sullivan ft Grant, to whom they paid the regulation price ef so much a head. "I do not think the officers, of the central body of the Pacific Coast Sea men's union," says Mr. Pearson, "will be willing to pay the license. Although we are engaged in the sailor shipping business, there is no fee charged by us. I Intend to inquire, into the matter, at once."'" - ;, .-:, v.; :' . At the last election of the union, Charles Hammarln was elected to suc ceed Mr. Pearsdn as agent of the local union, and he is expected to arrive here almost any day to take charge. Mr. Pearson has held the position for two terms, having been elected to the office and sent here from San Francisco, ROCK ISLAND NOW AWAITS THE ARTISTS 'The Rock Island office at Third and Alder streets has received the last con signment of office furniture, and Is now waiting for. the New Tork artists to come and decorate the Third street win dow with the big map of. the world. ' The new furniture consists of solid oak parti tions dividing General Agent Gorham off from the rest of the force, and also mak ing a store room out of the corner of the bi room. ' , , i ' I The fast thing to be placed is a coun ter that has been In process of construc tion for some months. The usual of fice counter Is nothing mare than a nice ly polished board but this counter, so Mr. Gornam , punts . put, , is a, , wondct of craftsmanship. From the otftstde It ap pears 4o be only a handsome oak counter but within are- compartments,, sliding doors, secret nooks), book shelves, ticket holders and everything imaginable th.it a ticket counter should have and general ly does not. The entire back of the counter Is cut 'up Into small compart ment, all of which are enclosed and may be locked if necessary. The sign artists will arrive tomorrow from San Francisco and work on the big map of the world will be commenced at once. The ticket business of the of fice is being pushed by "Kit" Carson, the newly appointed passenger agent, and af ter months of working and waiting the Rock Island men in Portland feel they have received everything they wanted ot tht head cfllce. er.d are chiefly IntensteJ now in pushing up the net returns to kop pace wlih their new splendor.

Some stomachs, will stand much more abuse than others,' but every stom ach has its limit; and when that limit Is reached It Is a very dangerous and un wise proceeding to attempt to force it into doing further work. The sensible and reasonable course Is to employ a substitute to carry on the work of di gestion and give the stomach an oppor tunity to recuperate and regain Its lost strength.' .. , t. , - s f Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are the only perfect substitute to take up and carry on the work of tired, worn-out stomachs. They are natural and easy In their work and cause no disturbance in the digestive organs. They contain all of the essential elements that make up the gastric Juice and other digestive fluids and will digest any food that a strong, healthy stomach will, and do it In the same time and in the same way. They work Independently of surround ing conditions and the fact that the stomach is weak or diseased does not Influence them at all In their usual .and effective work. They will digest food as well in a glass Jar or bottle as they will In a stomach. Tou can see that fof yourself by putting one of them into a jar with a square meal and some water to enable It to work. Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, by thus relieving the stomach of Its work, en ables that organ to rest and recuperate and regain Its health and strength.- The process Is perfectly natural and Plain. Nature will . heal the stomach Just as she heals a wound or; broken limb, If she Is not Interfered with and is per mitted to do her work in her own way. All interference is prevented by Stu art's Dyspepsia Tablets. ' h Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are for sale by druggists everywhere at 50 cents a box, and If you ate afflicted with dyspepsia, one box will make you. feel fifty times better. Tou will forget you have a stomach and rejoice in the for getfulness. No druggist would be so shortsighted as to try to get along with out Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets, for they are so popular and are so well known for the good they have -done and the happiness they have caused that any druggist caught , without them would lose the confidence of his. customers and be regarded as below the standard. 1 His business would suffer : as a -result : and his patrons would go to other stores and buy their other drugs there as well ar th.t.lr fttuarVl Pyspe psla Jgblets, ' . v.

Several sailing Teasels enroute to this port are making . unusually, long pas sages. Two of them are coming from Antwerp with cargo, and had they made average time should have reached the mouth of the river some time sgoV The . average passage from Antwerp is 140 days, but the French bark La Fontaine sailed from there for Portland on July 12. Hence she has been out 185 days, and still no advices have been re ceived as to how close she Is to her des tination. Only one week later the Brit ish bark Whlstlebank aalled from Ant werp for Portland, and consequently should have been here more than a month ago. It is generally believed that both ves sels are experiencing stormy voyages. and for this reason have been unavoid ably delayed. They are supposed to be somewhere between Cape Horn and the mouth of the Columbia, and the recent heavy gales very likely proved an ad vantage to them by driving them up the coast at a lively speed. The La Fon taine lost a good charter by not arriv ing before January 1. Ship Da Today. The British ship Cromartshlre has been out just 70 days from Newcastle, N. S. W., for Portland, and It usually requires juet that length of time to make the passage. Shipping, men are expect ing her to put in an appearance in , a day or two. Upon their arrival these vessels will add very material! to the disengaged fleet now in the river, which at the present time is of very small proportions. , .The only grain vessels In sort receiv ing cargo are the British ships East Af rica and Ancalos. The former is at Montgomery dock No. taking on grain. and the latter is being loaded at the flour mills. 8he Is expected to . com plete her. cargo this afternoon, and if the new captain arrives in time she will probably leave down about Monday. Her destination is Durban, South Africa.. A skipper was expected to reach liere several days ago from Nova Scotia To take the place of Captain Fulton,, but up to noon he had neither put In an ap pearance nor sent word explaining the cause 'of his delay. .Until his arrival Captain Crowe of the firm of Anderson A Crowe, is looking after the vessel. tob emu tom rxx.zs.
