For a time Altman and Harbaugh, have been auccessrui in keeping out Wakefield and Nicholas,, all of whom represent two different sets of officers of the concern. Now- the sheriff has taken a hand and is the of ficer In charge until the controversy is settled. A : number of days ago Constable Jackson seised, a typewriter on a suit of replevin brought by the father-in-law of Wakefield. Later Wakefield person ally tiled a similar suit. Constable Jackson made another raid and took desks, and chairs until the room were left unfurnished. About this time Dep uty Sheriff Kelley appeared on the scene arid attached the remainder oi tne er fects for a printing bill of 1130.' At th same time a representative of the Jenntng furniture house showed up to take back the remainder of the rur niture and carpets which had been pur chased on the . installment plan. The Sheriff refused to let him have anything until after his claim was satisfied. C. E. Harbaugh, who says he is the rightful president and manager of the concern. Is in Spokane with his attor ney.

Wakefield was kept busy explaining that the proposi tion was a good one.' He told how he had been thrown out of the business and made the mark by persecution on the part of the government He said he wa in a position to live up to the promises mad lu th contracts, and that all that was necessary for the contract holders to do wa to help oust Har baugh and Altman and to put him back in tha position. It was finally decided that another meeting would be called at soma time la the future and then take aoma action which would be gen erally Satisfactory. Wakefield Stated that he wa not in a position to maae a fight to turn out th official now in power, but that those Interested la the proposition would have to take th ini tiative and put up th money. Since the blow delivered by uncie Sam in holding Wakefield over to the grand Jury for th fraudulent us of the malls, in sending circulars of the com pany, the faith of many has been -shattered.

LIKE A BROTHER An Institution That Will Doubtless Have a Membership of 85,000 la Port ' land Tunerals Cost Almost Xothlaf. Walter Holman, of the Holman Under taking company, Is the secretary and manager of an institution In thl city that should haV a membership of 26, 000.' By its plan the cost o a burial amounts to almost, nothing, and the manner in which that "almost nothing" is paid renders the scheme one of the most feasible of the kind that over orig inated in the human brain. the concern 1 an organisation of men, women and children, banded to gether as a great company, each paying into a common iuna certain amounts as follows: Between 1 and year, t cents per month. Between I and 16 years, 10 cents per month. Between IS and 60 years, II Cent per month. Between 60 and (0 years, 20 cents per month. Between 0 and 70 years, Si oenta per month. These paymenta go into the Common treasury, and when a member dies the body la given burial according to his or her class as; follows: Under I years, ISO; between and 16, 1100, and over 18 years the coat shall be 6160, Any person in good health between the ages of 1 and 70 ma7 become a member by paying an Initiation fee of 25 cents, but no person will be entitled to benefit not in good health at the time of en rollment of his or her name, A th as sociation Is national in character and membership, bodies of persons removing to any other city or place, will have the seme car and attention as if death ha occurred in Portland, membership being transferable. The monthly pay ments of member will never be In creased.' Four funerals of member have al ready taken place, no one of which had paid so much as one dollar Into the common treasury. Still Mr. Holman carried out his contract to the letter, and at least two of the deceased had no means whatever of their own left be hind With which properly to inter the body at th time Of passing to the great beyond. Thia is, therefore, an actual beneficial organization. It belongs to that class that has a right to prosper. Its present membership numbers some bf the beat business men In the city. Therefore, it Is not considered merely a poor man' organization.' Any person In good health may become a member by leaving hi or her name with Mr. Holman, at the office of the EM ward Holman.rUndertaktng company, Third and Salmon.

COMEDY COMPANY FOR THE EMPIRE MAXAOBX BAXXX DESIRES TO OPES TAOAXT BOUSE AXD MAT SXOAOX OAPABXJB TROUPE COST OP XX TSXPXI8E IS TXX OX&Y DRAW BACK. Portland may enjoy a season of musical comedy by a capable company of stara at the Empire theatre If gen eral rumors prove correct. It is known that Manager George la. Baker has been seriously considering the proposition for several months, following the vaudeville season at the Thirteenth street resort, and it Is now asserted that the plans to that end have almoat reached fruition. That the Empire theatre will be al lowed to 11 idle is unlikely. But musical comedy is a costly thing. The season would have 'to be divided up with prob ably six week or two month at Port land and Loa Angeles and the remainder of the time patched between Seattle, San Francisco, and probably a short road trip through Southern California. This means a heavy expense, and to win out would require tha best kind of pat ronage. This, however, is one of the probable features that Manager Baker may intro duce next seaaon. There are a number of change proposed and Mr, Baker and his allied Interests will have five or six firstclass companies on the road next year: . They have contracted .for a high class of plays, and the list include sev eral of the latest successes in the east that will have their' Paclflo coast pre miere through Manager Baker's efforts. Th Baker Theatre company will soon leave, going from her to Seattle for four weeks; from Seattle to Los An geles for seven weeks, - and from Loa Angelea to San Francisco for six week. The Nelll-Morosco company will (return to Baker's theatre, reorganised and re inforced by a number of new players, Robert Morris and Elsie Esmond will return With the company, and the per sonnel of the cast as it open here is as iouows: Marry uouid, Harry Me tayer, George Woodward.. Thomas Oberle, Frank McVicar. Robert Morris, ti. On uumeia, Wilfred Rogers, H, J. Ginn, Amelia Gardner, Theresa Max well, Elsie Esmond, Phosa McAllister and Anna Robert. In a dispatch from San Francisco Comes the announcement of a combined opposition to the "theatrical trust." 'A neaf organisation of the Independent managers, including H. W.
