The committees conif of three women members from each Catholic church. Archbishop ChrlKie addressed the meet ing as follows: When I wr In the Kat am months ago a larfc hospital wasi opened up in Chicago, people assembled in Jarffe numbers, irre rpetlv of creed or nationality, being led by Bitm of the most eminent doctors in the Vnlte.1 States, and devised means for fur nishing the hospital with linen. It was met with a royal re jonse. I proposed the same plan to our sisters when I returned t mm the East. I said to them that what the people of the East have done for their .hospital the people of Fort and. will do for St. Vincent's. I stated a'so that eminent doctors had 'caupht up this jjreaT movement, and had labored for It successfully.' We have doctors? -w ho would compare favorably with the doctor of the Kast. r suggested that we ask for their assistance, and the movement to bring about a liner shower was taken up. Father McDevitt came to my assistance. I said that the people were anxiously wait ing to get together to begin thia work in wto. Therefore, we- ara here to push th ork to completion. But this institution is not for any creed, sect or nationality, but for suffering- humanity. This then is what I have stated repeatedly, that any work taken up for charity, for the alleviation of the Buffering of this or that Individual to this work the people of Portland, irre spective of creed or nationality will arise as one person, not only to erect and furnish and equip an institution of this character, but to do my thing to better the condition of the poor and afflicted. Nature Sets Example, Says Judge. Mr. Munley in opening the meeting re marked that nature was setting the women a good example by bringing a mantle of white, and congratulated them for their presence. He then gave a brief history of the founding of St. Vincent's Hospital, saying that the first patient was a non-Catholic. With the growth of the city it Vas found necessary to en large the hospital, bo work upon a new one was commenced, the dedication be ing held July 4. 1895. Mr. Munley also referred to 40,000 free meals dispensed by the women during the hard times of the Winter of 1S93. "It would be unjust." concluded Mr. Munley. "if l did not acknowledge the good deeds of the non-Catholics who have helped in the establishment of St. Vin cents Hospital. Dr. Andrew C. Smith was the next speaker, saying statistics show St. Vin-' cent's hospital saves more lives In pro portion to the number of injured treated than any other hospital west of Chi cago. "It is not surpassed, so far as I know." he eaia, "on the continent of America." City Attorney Kavanaugh was to have addressed the meeting;, but was too ill to be present, so County Judge Webster took his place upon the programme, say ing that St. Vincent's Ho"spital does not ask claes, creed or color, but "needs only to know that a brother man is in need of medical attention." Good Auditorium Xeeded. Rev. T. B. McDevitt was called upon and said: "You may be cold on account of the poorly heated room here, but I am not, for I know I am going to get one of the worst roastings T ever had in my lifs for calling this meeting here in the Armory today. But this places wag se cured because we realized that if the weather was good we should not have another hall in Portland large enough to hold the crowid which would attend. If anything ever demonstrated the crying need of a fine auditorium for Portland, this assemblage in a poorly-heated, smoky room certainly does." Mayor Joseph Simon was upon the plat form, but declined to take part In the addresses. A chorus was rendered by the pupils of St. Mary's Academy. Rev. Mr. Cline's Lincoln Address. PORTLAND, Feb. 13. To the Editor: The address of Rev. C. E. Cllne. delivered Saturday niht on the East Side on Abra ham Lincoln, before - Sumner Post. G. A-R-. proved again that the simplest re cital of facts is always the most effec tive on the platform. . Dr. Cllne told the story of the life of Abraham Lincoln with out the slightest attempt at oratory or display. It was the storv of the life of Lincoln, and while it contained little that waa new or out of the ordinary, yet it was & story of thrilling: interest from start to finish.. There was nothing that could be left out of the story and IlUlo to be added to make' it complete. How different from the froth and foam of so many of public addresses. HEARER.

Would Purchase American-Made Machine If Paid Exhibition Prohibition Eliminated. Walter E. -Donnelly. 212 Seventh street, is the latest Portlander to announce his intention of entering: the aviation game. Donnelly is now negotiating: with the eev. eral manufacturers of aeroplanes, in this country and abroad, for the purchase of an air craft. "I would buy an American make, prefer ably the Curtiss. were It not they will not permit the giving of paid exhibition flights," said Mr. Donnelly. "I think that is an unfair provision. I am. for that reason, also corresponding with foreign makers. If, however, that, part of the wiling contract cannot be left out In any, I will buy an American machine." Mr. Donnelly was taken with the avia tion fever at the World's Fair In St. Louis six years ago. where he first saw Baldwin in his dirigible. Since that time he has been making a study of aeronaut ics and predicts for the aeroplane great success. "I do not ee much for the dirigible." he said. "The future of aeronautics, to my mind, lies in the heavler-than-air crafts." Mr. Donnelly proposes to give all of his time in the future to aviation, par ticularly the improvement of the present planes. Just at present he is working on an automatlo equilibrium malntatner. Simple as it may seem, the old level used by carpenters, or the same principle, is the basis of his experiments in tli.it di KTKn IHF.iniNfi I.KFT TO RIGHT! M. . MIM.KV, MISS EMMA CMPIOX.

By the construction of &. deli cate instrument, which will record the status as to the level of the machine, he hopes to accomplish this. Otaer im provements are also contemplated by Mr. Donnelly, particularly as to the en gine, which he believes can be made lighter and yet more powerful. . Mr. Donnelly tendered his services to E. Henry Wemme, the first owner of an aeroplane In Portland, when his Curtiss biplane arrived here for the automobile show. He had charge of the assembling of the machine, which came here in knock-down form. . After the AutomoltUe Show he again took it down and reas sembled it In the Meier & Frank store for the pure food show. NOTED ENGINEER IS DEAD Thomas H.
