But he isn't he sells sawmill supplies. Just how he happens to know some thing about sassafras Is not important anyway.-,. . '. . ''Yes," 1 he continued. "Most' persons rp main loyal to the dear old sassafras simply because their mothers, their grandmothers and great grandmothers before them thought well of sassafras tea and never missed the opportunity of filling up oh it when the birds be gan to sing , m the spring. 1 don't be lieve there Is much to this old fashioned Idea after all.': s v "And by the 'way,? ' Mr. - Connell con tinued, "the price, of - sassafras Is un usually high 'this year.

He said the pickers were -scarce because they had engaged In-more profitable labors. Sas safras grows principally In southeastern and southern states. The-medicinal qualities of sassafras are contained in the bark of the root? Usually, the bark of the root . is . adulterated with the bark of the tree. : r"But If you insist on drinking sassa fras tea,'" Mr. Connell added as an af terthought "you had better use it along about this time of the year for the best results." - v - .i, ,-;.. f He c was asked .how he happened to be' so - well posted on sassafras and why he thought it was not a good tonle.

Dr. Henry Van Dyke says of Dr. Grenfell's .work among the Inhabi tants of that Inhospitable land : "He has discovered among the people who live -on theso desolate shores of the northern sea -and among the fishermen who ply their perilous work up there, a, wonderful chance to -do good. . They had been -living for many .years, not lOnly without churches or preachers, but also without a physician to care for them when they-were sick or wounded, and without a firm friend to save them from the consequences of their own ignorance and from the rapacity of evil men who ministered to their vices, preyed upon their simplicity and kept them (through a false system of trade) in a state of debt which amounted almost to slavery. "For. fourteen years Dr. Grenfell has thrown himself into the work of helping these people In Christ's name and In Ph.t'. .,,, . II- 1 1 , .. , j. ,. , , clothed tha naked, delivered the captive mlle parish to understand the love of God through "the love of man. He has built four hospitals, and es tablished five .co-operative stores where the fishermen, get fair prices for their fish, and buy their supplies at reason able rates; , given surgical and medical care to thousands of patients, and preached the good news of Christianity from - house to house and from ship to ship." The -dates for Dr. Grenfell's appear anoe in this city have not yet been set.

BOYS MURDER BIRDS III HM7TH0RI PARK Wanton slaughter of innocent w song birds In Hawthorne park has caused tha lovers of the' w feathered tribe to rise up In d arms against the bad boys of the neighborhood, whose accu- w racy with the bean shooter ap- pears to be equal to that of any w of tradition's great marksmen, w William Tell, for example. w 1 All winter long, through the w cold weather when the great snow blanket covered the entire w northwest and brought famine to w the little songsters, people living d 4 near Hawthorne park strewed 4 4 bread crumbs and, bird seed for 4 the. starring birds. By this aid tha little creatures w managed to live through the win- w ter, but now, Just when the first w signs of spring are beginning to d be seen, they face a new peril In w the . small boy and his bean w 4 shooter. , w w The people living near the park hesitate to notify the police w of this breaking- of the law be- cause most of the boys are w d pretty good boys otherwise, but w if they persist In the malicious w killing there Is little doubt but d that the police will take part In the affair. ; PETITION OF ELKS TO BE CONSIDERED The city executive board at its meet ing yesterday found itself up against a familiar subject when the petition of the Elks of Portland to use the arch ' of welcome was read. After a long dis cussion Mayor Lane was authorised to appoint a special committee to decide whether the request of the Elks can be granted or not. The order wants to use the arch to welcome the members of the grand lodge when they pass through Portland on their way to Los Angeles. A requisition was ordered drawn on the mayor and auditor for money enough 10 pay iur me municipal ngnung Dill in advance for the month of February. Under . the terms of the peace protocol between Mayor Lane and President Jos selyn of the Portland Railway, Light & Power company, the city must pay for its light in advance pending a settlement of the differences between the company and the city. , President Josselyn says there will be no difficulty as long as the money Is forthcoming.

" .- Alternative propositions will be sub mitted to the people on the question of bow future extensions of water maina shall be paid for, when the new char ter goes before the electors. Such was the .compromise agreement made by tha charter revision commission last night after delegates representing tha greater part1 of the East Bide had appeared to voice protests against the - district as sessment plan of extension. . By an amendment passed at the elec tion In June, .1907, the people decided that hereafter all water mains shall be put-In at the expense of the abutting property.' and such other property with in a district to be defined by the coun clal as shall be. In the opinion of the council, benefitted by the Installation of the mains. ' ' The new plan has aroused the -almost united opposition of the East Side for tiie reason that property owners over there think, a great Injustice Is being done them. Thousands of dollars have been spent by the pioneer residents in securing small water mains which have been in use for years., If extensions are made under the present law these mains will have to be replaced at the expense of the property owners who had to pay for the original mains, while water users on the west side Of the river did not have to bear the initial cost -ot procuring water for the reason that under the old law the laying of mains was done by the water depart ment ; - ' Li E. i Rice, president of the Mount Tabor Improvement association, on be half of the people who live In his district declared before the commission that the charter would never be ; ac cepted If a change is not made on the water question. "I'm very much afraid," said he." that If this district assess ment plan goes in with the rest of your good charter provisions the charter will be turned down. I think you should submit the water question separately. "Why should not the city proceed In the same way as a private corpora tion would by bonding Itself . and mak ing the charges for water enough to pay interest on bonds and provide a sinking fund?" President Whitney L. Boise of the Federated East Side club maintained that the system formerly in operation by the water department had always been a complete success and satisfac tory in every way. Tinder the old system," said Mr. Boise, "mains were never laid by the department until a sufficient number of consumers had been assured to make the receipts pay 8 per cent Interest The water proposition always took care of Itself." Dr. Wm. Deveny of Montavllla and O. N. Ford of Mt. Scott spoke for the residents of their districts against the district assessment system. City Attorney Kavanaugh .suggested that alternative propositions might be placed before the people with regard to the extension of the water . mains and a resolution to this effect was adopted. The water committee was directed to confer with a committee from the East - Side clubs In drafting these alternatives. . CITY WILL BUILD NEW WATER OFFICE A -permit was taken out -by the city yesterday for a new water office on East Alder street, between East Sixth and East Seventh streets. The building is to be a two-story brick and will cost 320,000. Steele & Bertelson are the contractors. Yesterday a permit was Issued to the Portland Railway, Light and Power company for a two-story frame club house to be erected on Savler street be tween Twenty-third and Twenty-fourth streets. The building will cost approxi mately $5000. This Is the fourth of the series of club houses to be built by the street railway company for Its em ployes. W. G.

The city hall is in constant . danger from fira owing to the carelessness of the builders and the lack of the pro tection of a department of electricity, says. G. Frank Carrey, of the electrical linemen's, union. Mr. Carrey appeared before the charter reunion committee last night and asked that a provision be incorporated in the new charter to in sure the careful inspection of electrical wiring. - "Portland Is tha only large city in the United States without such a de partment," said the electrician, "and we need one badly. Defective wiring caused the fire In the Ielrum block, the de struction of the Ablngtnq, building and hundreds of thousands of. dollars wortn of damage In other fires.. Had there been an Inspector to superintend the wiring of the city hall it would not be In such a deplorable condition as It Is now. -1 ssk you gentlemen to take a look at tne wiring m this building your selves. It doesn't heed the eve of an expert to see that the job was rank, .If a department of electricity -were created permits would have to be Issued for every lob done, the same as In the building Inspector's case. No wiring could.be paid for until the inspector had issued a permit and declared the work satisfactory to his ' department The city of Spokane has a department of this kind and it has been found to diminish tha loss by fire." J. D; M. Crockwell. of the electrical workers union also urged the' commis sion to secure some kind of protection for the city. Dr. Chapman and City Attorney Kavanaugh were favorably in clined towards - the Idea and the ques tion was settled oy amending 13 10 in dude an electrical Inspector.
