Epidemic of Defaicatfons.
There has been a remarkable epidemic of
! defalcations In New York during the past
| two weeks or so. 1t began with the discov-
cry of the big embezzlement Of the elderly
man Chipp from the bureau Of accounts.
Chipp had had his city job for good many
years, and, aided by the negligent system
prevailing in his Tammanyized department.
! he was able to steal about $4,000 in about
ten years. When they got Chipp and put
! him under lock and key he began to whine
| In a fashion that would have been nauseat-
ing had it not been so ptiable. The burden
of his lament was that "a woman" had
been the cause Of his becoming a thief
Chipp is a man well pas. middle age. He
alienated sympathy that might otherwise
have drifted his way on the part of men Of
lenient minds by his lack of gameness, not
to say common sense, in endeavoring to
thrust the responsibility for his thievins
upon female.
Another of the recent defaulters of note.
because of his profession, was the Rev.
Mr.. Alden, attached to the Office of the
commissioner Of charities. The Rev. Mr.,
Alden found himself in need of little mat.
his way in the shape of city funds he per.
mitted ii to stick to his fingers. He de-
parted with unministerial secrecy and
speed, and brought humiliation upon q
highly honored family, including member
thereof whose name is distinguished one
in contemporary American letters.
Then a young Brooklyn bank messenger,
whose devoutness as a Sunday school
teacher has been the JOY as well as the
marvel of all his religious friends in the
city of churches for some years past. found
himself the other day in possession Of q
bag containing something like 81. 000 OF his
banks gold. He reached the hasty conclu-
sion that he could just about use that sum
in gold, and, writing cheerful little note
to his Brooklyn sweetheart that he was OF
for Montreal, he went thither with the coin,
The detectives got hold of his note to the
girl, and they nailed the young man in the
act of enjoying himself in an exceedingly
secular manner in the Canadian city. All
told, there have been no less than eleven
sizabie defalcatfons in New York and
Brooklyn since the 18th of December.

In the meantime. New York stil has
what may properly be called it's Dorsey
Foultz case. The police authorities haven't
got hide nor hair Of little Willie Schrieber
yet-little Willie being the suffering and
perfectly demonstrating young man who
eloped with himself a year ago last August
after having Tenderloined something like
quarter OF a million of his banks currency.
The authorities complacently announced
when the youths flight was discovered
that the case was almost foolish in fte
easiness. and said that they'd have the boy
just at the moment they wanted him. Yet
despite the fact that the young man has
to go through many weird wrigglings be-
fore he is able to calculate a word he ia
still absent. and the search for him has
virtually oeen abandoned. G. L. O.

gate and You VIII Join One of
the Clubs Now Forming.

Under the club system inaugurItet
for the first time in Portland by Eiler.
Piano House, purchasers get the bene.
tit of the retailers profit.
Always the first In adopting new
progressive, money-saying, public
pleasing methods. Eilers Piano House
now has in full blast plan that has
met with immense popularity else
where, and is now meeting with the
same in Portland.
On Sunday morning we advertised our
intention Of forming piano clubs in
Portland, the same that had been em-
ployed by our San Francisco house
short tine ago. BY noon no less than
six pianos were on the way to the
homes of enthusiastic purchasers, who
had readily recognized what saving
it would be to them. Since then the
growth Of the clubs, six in all, four for
pianos AMI two for organs, has been
simply phenomenal. Members are com
ing in almost hourly, and the entire
force of delivery teams of the firm
have been constantly kept busy send
ing out the pianos.
THIS is THE PROPOSITION
To begin with. members of these
clubs get the very best pianos made,
such as the Kimball. Decker, the Web
er, Chickering. and others, and they
get them At dealers prices, and ia ad-
aition to chis the terms of payment on
them are much easier than in the reg
ular retail way. The initial or first
payment places the piano in your
house.
There will be four piano clubs-"A," j."
"B," &C." and D." each club being
limited absolutely to one hundred
members.
Those joining Club "a" now secure
a fine new piano by paying down the
small sum of S. and making weekly
payments of s125.
Club "B' members pay 81 upon de- |
livery Of their pianos and complete |
their payments at the rate of $1.60 per |
