In the musty tomes of th bureau of

department! and , each official of - the
service Is possessed of his "official re
production" to which . he may refer
when the question of port channels is
brought up. . -
Strang- to say, as much as Portland
has agitated the subject of her fresh
water narborj fought for appropriations
to allow of Its development and sounded
the merits of Its- river anchorages
through ' Its - commercial bodies, thert
never .has been an effort made to have
the old mana removed and the soundings
of present times placed at the imme
diate disposal of the heads of depart
ments. The war and navy departments
have recent maps of the Columbia fur
nished by United States engineers, but
where these valuable - diagrams are
kept la a question thus far remaining
unanswered..
, Only IS Tee Shown.
"Three years ago," writes Henry M.
Weyburn,. a former United 8tates en
gineer, to a friend In Portland, "I was
compelled to go to considerable trouble
hers tWsshlngton) to find correct maps
of the mouth of the Columbia. I had
occasion, to use them, but found that
the maps then In use showed only a
few Inches over IB feet of water on the
bar. I had been given to suppose that
at that time there were at least 23 feet
of water, which was expected to be In
creased to 26 feet by the scouring oc
casioned by the Jetty. It would be well
for Portland to furnish data concern
ing the bar to officials here and also
to Insist that the department maps be
kept up to date. ,
"The recent controversy over the
vending of warships and . transports to
Portland has brought out the fact that
nearly every bureau man here is under
the impression that between 1 and 20
feet Is all that the Columbia bar can
boast, and tt is up to the representa
tives of the state to have the dam
aging old drawings that are responsi
ble for . this error of conception sup
planted by maps that show the correct
soundings.'
Argument on Transports.
Correspondence from Washington has
further developed that one argument
that has been made by the war depart
ment asjalnnt sending transports with
troops for Vanoouver barracks to Port
land direct from Manila Is that the ex-
rente involved Is greater than sending
hem to Ban Francisco even though rail
road fare hni to be paid, the claim be
ing made that the ship has to return
to Ban Francisco empty and has to
Involve loss of time and expense for
maintenance and coal during the addi
tional trip Involved. .
It is pointed out that the Oregon del
egation m!ht -rpake a fight to have
troops sent from eastern points here to
meet transports arriving from Manila
Instead or lending tnem to Ban 'ran
Hseo. Why Is it not as cheap to send
the men enranfoed at San Francisco and
awaiting service duty In Man'la to
Portland over the Southern Pacific as
to have them sent to Vancouver bar
racks from San Francisco by rail?
Any way the arrangements are figured
out th excuse "expense" Is absolutely
offset by hard facts In Portland's fa
vor. TVevburn further writes:
"Trie necessity of continually forcing
the nroper data on the department of
ficiate here regarding depth of water on
the bar Is just rs apparent as neces
sity of working for appropriations. The
department seem to play a good many
favorites when tt comes to rivers and
harbors improvements."
LEGAL COMPLICATIONS
IN A BOOZE FIGHT-
With a ' market wh.os extent " Is has received orders for as much as
Shown by the fact that i.000.000 fruit
boxes are shipped from Portland every
season and an equal or larger, number

Is no wonder that a Portland man, C.
D. Edwards, feels enthuslastlo about a
new folding fruit box whl$h he has re

The Edwards box has- no metal what

carloads at one time. ; ' .
Mr. Edwards, who Is connected with
the Portland Basket A Handle com
pany, Fulton, says that one man and a
boy will manufacture his no-metal box
as rarldly as ten girls working on the
wire-sewed boxes. , His patent is. now

There are five fruit-box factories In
Portland, one In St. Johns, and a small
factory in Seattle as well as the large
plant at Hcjulam. . The acreage -.being

MISS BESSIE ABOTT IN RECITAL
(Speflil Dispatch t The JoorBil.)
Astoria, Or., May 12. A peremptory
writ of mandamus has been Issued by
Judge McBrlde directing the county
court to order a local option election
on Juno 1 In Astoria precincts Nos. 2
and S and allowing five days in which
to ask to haVs the writ quashed.
C J. Curtis, who represents the in
terests ' opposed to holding the election,
says he will denve this evening for
Oregon- City to file his answer In the
case and a petition to have the writ
quashed. These will be argued before
By G. I. W.
The great Bessie Abott has been here
and has gone away again, and left us
cold and untouched. Emanating not a
particle of warmth, utterly lacking In
the oarmaraderlt that makes Schumann
Helnk take you straight to her heart,
or that makes Blauvelt of the lesser
artists sparkle before you with the pure
love of pleasing you, Miss Abott occu-
led the stage last night like a snow
ank, occasionally trying to give way
to the warm, melting rays of the sun,
but for the m .part content to re
main a cold sno?ve Muik. A few friends
In the audience were the occasional
sun's rays.
Miss Abott Is possessed of a beau
tifully pure coloratura voice, which
represents chiefly hard, unceasing work
and an Indomitable will rather than the
purest love of singing for singing it
self. I fancy she won ' her success
through wishing to be at the top. not
because people, moved' to tears of ap-
Sreclatlon and delight, Insisted on put
In her there.
Her first number was a Bonlzettt
aria, from - "Lucia." Personally I have
slight use for an operatic aria on the
concert stage. A few a very few can
stand to be transferred from their nat
ural setting of scenery, orchestration
and natural sequence, and still retain
beauty and intelligibility. The mad
scene from "Lucia" is not one at these.
Still It served to show her splendid
vocalisation, her range and power. Her
technical work left nothing to be de
al rd. It was pure and true and good,
and her tones were as direct and pure
as the tone of a bell, or a bird's note or
the brook's song, or any of the old
standard comparisons. But you waited
for her to warm up. In her encore, the
dainty "Mighty Lak a Rose," she was
a little more human.
Her spring songs, of which she sang
three, were her best work. Here she
could imitate the pure sounds of the
birds and sing of the life and Joy of
the season with resonance and Joyous-
ness In her voice and with-no particular
need of soul. And she sang them well.
Mrs. Beach's old favorite. "The Tear's
at the Spring," Henschel's picturesque.
Imitative spring song, and the well
known "Fruhllngslled?' with its tribute
to the beauty of spring, were sung
splendidly. The Parla waits (ArdiU)
was sung with excellent retention of
the rhythm. "Standchen" (Richard
Strauss) was also well sung, but the ac
companiment was the chief beauty.
The pianists, by the way, Edith Mox
om Gray, Is a charming person to hear.
There Is a simplicity and directness and
absolute disregard of pose that brings
her near to the audience. Her music
is a part of her and she plays It be
cause she loves It. The Grieg "Wed
ding Day" musio was interesting." The
Schumann aria was rather pretty, but
the Debussy "Danse" was a delightful
number in Its original flavor and the
Interest she put into It. She plays
cleanly and with precision. Her ac
companiments were Intelligent.
Hans Dressel, 'cellist, Is a musician.
There Is an undercurrent of sadness
throughout his music that affects even
the gayest of his wofk. f ou feel that
he prefers the slow, sad songs to the
brighter dance tunes. The latter he
plays as under protest But he gets a
food tone, and is sane about his music,
he Borcherlne Sonata was a weird,
beautiful thing, beautifully played. The
Chopin Etude, arranged from the piano
score In a higher key, was beautifully
filayed with a low, clinging tone. Noth
ng but youthful spontaneity was lack
ing In the Piattl "Tarantella." His
technical work was irreproachable, but
one Involuntarily recalled the spontan
eous and Joyful work of young Albert
Rosenthal, who was here with Blauvelt.
However, Mr. Dreseel Is an artist.
I had almost forgotten to add that
Miss Abott fell back on the usual trick
of singing "Last Rose of 8ummer ' and
"Uomln' TJiro' the Rye" in encore. Had
the audience waited a little longer I
doubt not she would have sung "Star
Spangled Banner" to the intense delight
oi tne puouo.

Judge McBrlde at some date yet to be
fixed.
Judging from present Indications nu
merous complications are liable to
arise should Judge McBrlde decide af
ter hearing tne arguments to sustain
the writ directing the calling of the
election. In the first place, the coun
ty court has adjourned its session for
the term and a special session cannot
be legally held without 10 days' notice
being given by the,, county judge to
each member of the court. Again, the
local option law says the order direct
ing the holding of a local option elec
tion must be- placed In the hands of the
sheriff not less than 20 days before
the date of election, and as the gen
eral election Is to be on June 1, the 20
days began to run last night. Lastly,
the local option law specifically pro
vides that the county court shall have
final jurisdiction tn all matters relat
ing to theae petitions.

Star "The Merry Widow's Return."
The merry widows are Just having
one grand time at the Star this week.
What with all sorts of fluffy short
skirts and big black hats and a chance
to sing Ous Edward's "School Days"
with no ona around to stop them and a
whole soda fountain all to themselves,
the presentation of "The Merry
Widows' Return" la bound to be a
memorable one for all concerned.
The "Return" is characterised by the
producers as "A merry musical satire,"
and let It be said right away that there
isn't a watts in it and that not one note
of Frans Lehar's rouslo haa been plag
iarized. It is distinctly a home pro
duction. The songs include "I Want to
Be a Merry Widow, I Love Them
All," "Won't Tou Be My Honey?" "The
Merry Widow Crase" and TJieusch
land.' Oreat excitement was occasioned
by the -rlntlng on the program of Miss
Ruth's real name. If you nave been to
the Star lately you'll remember that
among, the Ellas and the Hattles and
the Mays and the Magdallnes and Oer
aldlnes there was one simple Miss Ruth.
This week It came out as Miss La
Petite Ruth, and in celebration of tho
event Miss La Petite was given quite a
"hand" and had a song all to herself.
Musical Lane Is the hit of the vaude
ville part of the program he's the
world renowned exylophona soloist, so
they say, and those who like xylophones
will be enthusiastic. The Merry Bell
boys offer a singing and dancing prop
osition that takes well, and the musical
