J. CI PLANS PIGEONS ACQUIRE PEANUT HABIT AND WAIT FOR NOON WHISTLE Several weeks ago two pigeons strolled near tbe peanut stand of Jim Devls, a Greek, at Sixth and Washing ton streets. Jim tossed the birds a handful of goodies. The pigeons gob- gled the peanuts In a Jiffy. Every day since then the pair has appeared for Its meal of nice roasted goobers. The Greek vender continued to feed the birds. At first when the Dlsreons appeared Jim waited until noon before he passed out the regular allowance of peanuts. The pigeons soon learned that they were not to be fed until the noon hour. Now the birds wait on the roofs of near by buildings until the It o'clock whistles blow. Then they fly down U Jim In a flutter and begin cooing and strutting about until he comes through with the peanuts for which they have cultivated such a fondness. The birds are becoming tame and will pick the kernels from the ground within a few Inches of the man's feet. The Oreek Is gradually training the pigeons so that trfey will eat from his hand. Alter gelling meir nil me oiras go on about their business, nut tne next day at noon whan the whistles are sounded the pigeons are promptly on hand again for their regular feed. 1Y BE HELD UP BUNKO GAME III unds Subscribed Needed at Once Before Building Contract Is Let.

Washington, Feb. IS. Champ Clark of Missouri, enlivened the proceedings In tbe bouse this morning, as be has on other occasions, by denouncing the lie- publican members for the stand they have taken on the tariff question. The Missourlan baa charged that they were trvins- to operate a stupendous confidence itame by announcing their In tention to declare for a revision of the tariff without indicating whether they were tor an increase or a reduction In the schedule. He cited the recent speech of Representative Payne who r leaded that the Republicans be given a new lease of life and asked the peo ple to overlook past omissions, stating that the Republicans would revise the tariff one way or the other. "Representative Payne doesn't seem to know which way the revision is go ing to be made," ClatK continued, Dut still he asks the'Amerlcan peoplo to gb to the polls and buy toese tarur pigs in a poke. Dlscusslnsr the money panlo Clark de clared that the recent disturbance gave the Republican platform of 1904 the lie. "The Republican platform declares that the Republican tariff Is always fol lowed by prosperity," he added, "and that business adversity results from a Democratlo tariff." CAPITOL GRAFTERS 3IUST STAND TRIAL (Cnlted Prew Led Wire.) Ilarrlaburg, Pa. Feb. 1!. After one of the hottest fights ever waged in Pennsylvania courts the prosecution has scored another victory In the trial of Messrs. Sanderson, Snyder, Shu maker and Mathues, on charges of graft growing out of the construction of the state capitol. The victory came when Judge ivinkel denied the motion Of the defendants' counsel to allow them to In struct the Jury to acauit the accused or dismiss the suits on the ground that the state had not produced sufficient evi dence to support Its contention that a conspiracy existed between them to de fraud the state by grafting on the fur nishings for the building. The court held that the Jury must pass on the guilt or Innocence of the defendants. SAYS ROOSEVELT STOPPED REVOLT James R. Garfield Declares President Saved Nation by Curbing Wealth. (United PreM Lewed Wire.) Chicago, Feb. 13. James It. Garfield. In addressing the Hamilton club, de clared that Roosevelt averted a revolu tion by curbing predatory wealth. He declared for public control and regulation of lands and forests, of gov ernmental checking of predatory wealth and. in the name of the administration, he served warning upon the corporate Interests that blame Roosevelt for the recent financial troubles of the coun try that prosecutions will continue re gardless of consequences. His startling declaration mat noose velt prevented a revolution was: "It Is not Inconceivable that the Socialist dream of a revolution mlfrht have come through It. If there had been no check on the unbridled rapacity of those who, claiming special privileges, set them selves above the law, I grant you there mlKht have been a revolution In the United States."

On the around that the city has no right to proceed with ths us of a pat ented navement because It shuts out comDetltlve bids, besides being of great er cost than Is necessary, William Don ovan and II other property owners on Belmont street, between East Tenth and Nineteenth streets, have obtained an In junction from Presiding Judge Cleland !n tne circuit court restratinny mn cny of Portland from making a contract for Improving Belmont as proposed. The city Is called on to show cause why the Injunction should not be made permanent, the hearing to be held to morrow afternoon. The Improvement of the street will be attacked on othor grounds as well, one being that the pe tition for improvement was "stuffed" with the names of persons not entitled to sign, so that In fact it lacked the re quired number of signatures. It is stated that a remonstrance has been signed by more than two thirds of the property owners interested. The city's plans for Improvement called for ths use of Warren's blthu llthlc waterproof pavement, and this is the patented process to which objection Is made because there Is no opportun ity for competition in bidding for the work. BL0DGETT MAY BE TRIED IN APRIL TERM nenrra L. Blodeett. who has been granted a new trial for murder in the circuit court, will probably face a Jury during ths April term of court. At torney J. A. Jeffrey asked J;o have the case set mis morning, ana oom num desire to take up the case in Marcn, but the crowded condition of the cal endar probably will not permit this to be done. Blodgett was convicted for the murder of a vaudeville actress In a north end lodging house.
