Dealing With the
Proprietor.

MT You always want 8to
Vi deal with the head of a
concern. He knows the
goods-invented them-made
them, or the machinery that
makes them.
When you shop in the
Market-Place of the World
you DO deal with the pro-
prietor. The advertisements
in McClure's Magazine are
the words of 1.-The man be-
hind the goods. - He writes
the announcements. He is
the fountain head of the in.
formation sent you. He is
the knower, the doer and the
dealer who sells. That's
why Mcclure 's-the Mar
et-Place of the World
gives satisfaction, and why
it is worth the cost of the
magazine without reference
TO the test.

Three Men Believed 10
Have Unearthed Large
Sum Near Los Angeles
CRIME SUSPECTED

Los ANGELES. Aug. working
like. beavers for several hours last
night. three men dug what is supposed
TO be a large sum OF money from a
cache in the river bed. about 100 yards
south Of the Ninth-street bridge. A
man living near the spot noticed three
men at work with picks and shovels
between the levee and the Santa Fe
tracks. He concealed himself and
watched them. For several hours they
worked, then one exclaimed: "Ah.
there il is"
- After little more shoveling they be-
gan, II is believed, collecting money
from the hole, as they put something in
bags The watcher was unable to no
fify any one Of the occurrence and the
men departed unmolested.
Two theories are advanced by the
police One is that the men hid plum
Ger from small burglaries from time to
time The other is that q big haul was
made a long time ago and that the
roooers have not dared to return for
their plunder until now.
The river bed has served as a hiding
place for loot for a long time. Every

SPECIAL DISPATCH TO THE CALL.

SPECIAL DlSFAICd ~ The CALL.
PORTLAND, Or, Aug. 2-Evidence
of what the police believe was a daring
plot to blow up the vaults in the City
Hall and loot the treasury has been
secured by the authorities, and under
orders of Chief Gritzmacher, a special
detail Of patrolmen is guarding the city
treasury tonight. Police will continue
to guard the vaults as long as the city
funds are believed to be the object of
thieves.
Yesterday was the first of the month,
and during the afternoon City Treas
urer Werlein brought $4,000 from the
banks to pay off employees of the fire
and police departments. The warrants
could not be prepared yesterday and
the money had to remain in the vaults
over night There was in addition to
this a large sum collected from city
licenses.
Suspicious characters have been no.
ticed around the City Hall for the last
two days. and some inquiries have been
made as to the police protection af-
forded at night. The city is full of
cracksmen, and burglaries are of
nightly occurrence. Chief Gritzmacher
said:
We have no positive proof of course
treasury, but it has been reported to
me that several very suspicious charac-
tiers have been hanging about the
building for several days, and yester-
day afternoon one or them made an in
at night. At this time of the month
there is always a good deal of money
in the vaults, and 1T is just tho time
that robbery might be expected.

HAIIBUT BANKS OF NORTHERN
BRITISH COLUMBIA DEPLETED
Tests Made by Canadian OGIcIaIs Show
That the TOethsOme Fish Is
Rapidly Disappearing.

VANCOUVER, Aug. 2.-That the
halibUt banks Of the Northern British
Columbia coast are becoming depleted
is the opinion Of Captain Newcombe of
the Dominion Government steamer
Kestrel. The cruiser arrived today
.rom a months cruise. Tests were
made At various places off the Queen
Charlotte islands and farther south
toward the northern end of Vancouver
Island. II was found that the haiibut
had disappeared from these banks.
American fishermen enjoy practically
a monopoly in the water adjacent to
the Canadian shores on the west coast
OF Vancouver Island. On her trip the
kestrel found a bed of scallops, shell
fish larger and better than oysters.

cerning legislation

corning legislation, Dalzell remarked:
II have expectations that the ship
subsidy bill which passed the Senate
at the last session and went to the
House committee will be reported. and
1 hope that 1t will become a law"
Dalzell perceives that the term sub
sidy is misleading in the West and
comprehends also that something like
campaign of popular education may
be necessary in order to convince the
people, especially the people who dwell
In the Middle West, that the interests
OF the whole country require the main
tenance of American ships on the seas.
Il wish, said Dalzell, that some
other term than subsidy could be ap-
piled to the measure, because the popu-
lar sentiment is not favorable to sub
sides. The purpose of the bill is to
accord protection to the shipping in
dustry, and I have hopes that the
House will indorse the measure.
.The-bill will not have to go back
to the Senate again, unless the House
should amend it."
The work of Duncan McKinlay of
the Second California District was
highly commended by Gilbert and Dali
zell.

HIGH RENTS DRIVE
FAMILIES OUT.

The relief corporation is face to face
with the serious problem of furnishing e
shelter to hundreds driven out of
houses by rapacious landlords And
there are no tents in which to put the
homeless. In all the camps other than
the Speedway, which is reserved for
aged indigents, there were unoccupied
accommodations for only forty-six per-
sons yesterday. There are demands for
nearly ten times that number.
The case of c. Dieckmann, who re-
sides at 189 Belvedere avenue, is one
in point. Dieckmann has a wife and
two children. Up to the time Of the
fire he had earned 500 a month as
butcher. He then paid SIS month
rent After the fire he received en-
ployment with the Pacific Steel and
Hardware Company, where he is earn
ing only $50. But his landlord has in
creased his rent to $3.50. This he
cannot pay, but he owns a lot in the
suburbs and has applied for two tents.
that he may put them up on his own
property. These he has been unable to
secure The result is that Dieckmann
finds himself very much in the air.
Another case is that OF man who
writes MYRTLE Cert of the Grand Jury

that his rent has been raised to $50. In

Noon Will Go Into
TOtdI Eclipse
Tomorrow.
By Rose O'HaHOran.

7 T is not often that three eclipses oc-
3 cur within a period of thirty days
Mariners in Antarctic seas witnessed
partial eclipse of the sun on the
21st of July last, and to observers in
the Arctic region, British Columbia and
northern tract of the United States
the sun will be again partially eclipsed
on the 10Th of this month: consequently,
midway between these dates, according
to the laws of lunar motion, total
eclipse OF the moon is inevitable
At 3:10 a. m. on Saturday, August 4,
the full moon, having passed through
the penumbral region during the previ-
Gus hour, will enter the earths shadow
and in a few minutes the symmetry of
the east limb will be noticeably i'm
paired, as in the early gibbous phase.
Before daybreak has dimmed the star
light, a slender curve of the disk will
still linger unobscured in the south
west and may surprise early risers ac-
customed to view a morning crescent
only in the eastern sky. Above Will be
the planet Saturn, below, Fomalhant, a
star of the first magnitude; near by, the
constellation of Aquarius and far in
the east Jupiter and the Arion orbs
Even then, If the atmosphere be clear
the reddish color generally seen on the
surface of the totally eclipsed moon will
commence to be discernible.
Though chiefly attributed to sunlight
refracted by the terrestrial atmosphere,
a recent theory suggests that the lunar
tracts may be endowed with fSS.pt lu-
minosity, at least temporarily At 4:O9
a m, hour before sunrise, when the
moon is 10 degrees above the southwest
horizon, totality will commence and the
coppery CLEAN of the shadowed orb will
be visible for some time, even in the
gray light of dawn.

California Friends Of Lady
Douglas Are Surprised.
Story of Husbands Ar
rest by Mistake
Stirs Gossip.
Erroneous Belief That
They Had Returned
to London.

~ AKLAND, Aug. Friends of
Lady Sholto Douglas, wife of
the third son of the late Mar
quis of Queensberry, were sur
prised this morning by the announce
nnent through-the columns of The Call
that Lord Sholto had been taken into
custody in Portland, Me-, under the
mistaken impression that the English
man was Lord Douglas" a much
wanted American bigamist. 1t was
generally supposed that Lady Sholto,
after her visit to her family in this city
last January, had returned directly to
her home in England, but her friends
now believe that she met her husband
in New York and returned with him to
Portland.
When taken into custody at his home
az Shebago Beach, where he was placed
under arrest at the request of the po-
lice of Asheville, n. c.. Lord Sholto, who
was known as S. G. Douglas, at once
made known his identity. He had lit
tie difficulty in satisfying the Portland
police that a mistake had been made,
and was released within a few hours,
the Asheville authorities being notified
that an error had been made.
Lady Douglas Is well known in this
CITY. being a daughter of John r. Moo
ney, who formerly resided at 566 Thir-
tieth street. She was educated in the
public schools Of Oakland, and later,
under the name of Loretta Adds. en-
tered upon a stage career. 1t was while
she was a vaudeville singer, at Bakers
field, that she won the heart OF Lord
Sholto Douglas. to whom she was Sc
cretly married in San Jose.
After spending several years IN
tour of the Pacific Coast Lord and Lady
Douglas went TO England in 1898, and
until January Of the present year re-
sided at Harrow, a suburb OF London. On
January Lady Douglas arrived in this
city on visit to her family, and after
a stay of some two months in Oakland
left for New York to return. as 1T was
supposed, to her home In England. In
the meantime, however, her husband
had left for the United States. and hus-
band and wife have been visiting rela-
tives of Lady Sholto in the East.
They were summering on the Maine
coast. it is presumed by their friends,
when the unfortunate mistake of iden-
tity occurred.
