OR. EMMY LANE IS
FETED BY DOCTORS
200 Members of Medical So
ciety Honor United States
Senator-elect.
GREAT FUTURE PREDICTED
Speeches Sound Xote of Affection
and Reference to Professional
and Political Career Brings
Prolonged Applause.
Two hundred members of the Port
land Medical Society sat down to a
banquet at . the Portland Hotel last
night in honor of Dr. Harry Lane.
United States Senator-elect from Ore
son. Many were the praiseful tributes
to Dr. Lane s worth as a citizen, a phy
sician and a public official.
That he would make a brilliant rec
ord in the Senate was freely predicted.
Some of the speakers, in prophetic
mood, depicted his triumphant re-election
six years hence, and others saw
him attaining even greater heights in
the public service.
Dr. W. T. Williamson, who presided
as toastmaster, said that it was fitting
for the fellow-members of Dr. Lane s
profession to meet as an organized
body to do him honor on the eve of
his departure for his new duties in the
high place to which he had been called
dthe councils of the Nation.
Speeches Show Affection.
There was a distinct note of affec
tion in many of the speeches. Dr. S. B.
Josephi said that he hf.d known the
truest of honor ever since he was a
boy, and that "he was a very devil
among boys." He referred humorously
to a time when a shift in state admin
istration made his resignation as super
intendent of the Oregon Hospital for
the Insane quite the correct thing to
do politically, and told how he was
placed in the unusual position of be
ing asked to name his successor by
Governor Pennoyer. "I recommended
Harry Lane," said Dr. Josephi. amid
applause-
Dr. Otto S. Binswanger made one or
the hits of the evening with his remin
iscent remarks relative to the early
history of Dr. Lane as a physician. He
told of the many enthusiastic theories
of the youthful practitioner, and the
doctors laughed, none more heartily
than Dr. Lane, as he told how some of
them worked out.
Dr. Charles H. Raffety told of know.
Ing Dr. Lane from boyhood, and of hav
ing had him as a student in his office.
Ha said that Dr. Lane "Is a man who
does what he sets out to do. Just as he
did when a boy he rode a big salmon
in Portland Slough and killed it with a
club."
Dr. Snrjcentlch Recites.
Dr. S. Sargentlch was introduced by
Dr. Williamson as one who. while his
residence has been in Portland for sev
eral years, finds his heart with the
allies in the Balkan Peninsula fighting
for their freedom against the Turks.
Dr. Sargentich is a Servian, and he
gave an Interesting summary of the
history of his country under Turkish
tyranny. He closed by reciting an
English translation of a powerful and
dramatic poem by a famous Bulgarian
patriotic poet, and was long applauded.
Dr. George Whiteside told of the stu
dent life of Dr. Lane at Willamette
Unlversitv, from which he graduated in
1876, and the little Intimate touches in
his talk pleased his hearers to laughter.
Dr. Ben L. Norden was one of the
younger physicians who bore witness to
the high regard in which Dr. Lane- ts
held by members of the profession, and
it was he who predicted that the Senator-elect
would make such a record as
would entitle him to a re-election from
the people of Oregon.
Dr. Andrew C. Smith, in a happy lit
tle talk, added to the gaiety of the
evening by telling little "tales out of
school." In which Dr. Lane was the cen
tral figure. He Joined with the others
in a warm appreciation of the new Sen
ator. Political Duty Outlined.
Dr. Lane, in replying to the en
comiums that had been showered upon
him. was at his best. He expressed not
only the deepest appreciation of the
way In which his brother medicos had
gathered to do him honor, but the
earnest hope that he would be able to
fulfill their expectations for him.
He spoke of the practice of inflating
stock as one of the greatest evils that
the country faces. Of $31,000,000,000
of stocks and bonds issued in a certain
period. Dr. Lane said that $21,000,000,
000 are nothing but air. "The backs of
the common people have to bear this
burden of fictitious valuation, with 6
per cent Interest on the whole unholy
load," he said. He declared that some
thing must be done to check the
business of over-valuation, or the coun
try "would go to the demnation bow
wows," and that he proposed to be
one of the men to attempt to do that
something.
The Portland Ad Club Quartet was
encored for each of several songs that
they sang, and added materially to the
general success of the event.
CARE OF BABES PROBLEM
Directors of Home Plan Improve
. ments and Find Pnnd Low.
The Baby Home is planning to safe
guard the health of the tiny inmates of
the Institution by building a concrete
cow stable. For eight months there
have been no deaths at the home and
but very little sickness. In order to
keep up the standard the directors have
decided to have every accessory that
will enable them to give the babies the
purest food and the best care possible.
The fund to be used for the new
stable is to be taken from the amount
secured during the Olds. Wortman &
King voting contest, when the public
showed its interest in the institution
by making it one of the victors, with a
prize of several hundred dollars.
Another problem facing the board Is
the fact that the fund for running ex
penses is running low. They say they
feel the need of state support, as chil
dren come in constantly from all parts
of Oregon. The last Legislature al
lowed them $9000 tor two years' main
tenance, and the expenses have been
$22,000. The Income from their endow
ment fund is only $17. SO per month.
The directors will not give a tag day.
-but are hoping for some other means
of helping them care for their little
charges.
ALLEGED FORGER IS TAKEN
Man Raising Bills From SI to S20
Long Sought.
Clever pen work in the execution of
rui.-ing $1 notes to the denomination
of $20 and passing them into circula
tion has caused the secret service de
partment of the Government anxious
moments on the Pacific Coast during
the past two months, but yesterday
Secret Service Agent ConnelL of the
Portland district, arrested a man who
is accused of doing the work.
The raised notes first made their ap
pearance in Portland during the early
holiday shopping season and at the
same time notes of a similar character
were found in San Francisco, all evi
dently the work of the same band. To
City Detective Swenness Is given the
direct credit of making the first ar
rest Jack Monahan, a traveling bar
tender, was captured -Wednesday, after
he had attempted to pass one of the
raised bills in a North End saloon. At
the time Monahan refused to tell where
he had received the bill, but yester
day morning he told the officers that
Jack Larson, who had a room at Sixth
and Stark streets, had given it to him
to cash.
The officers made a quick run to the
room and found that Larson, who was
also known as Harry Russe, had left
a few hours before with all his ef
fects. At the Union Station he was
arrested as he was boarding a train
for San Francisco and while none of
the raised notes were found on him.
the ink and pens which the officers
say were used in the work were in his
suitcase. He denied all knowledge
of the raised notes but the Government
officials have strong evidence against
him.
Fully 20 of these raised notes are
known to have been placed In circula
tion and probably many more.
INTRUfiERS ARE BOLD
WOULD-BE ROBBER WALKS IX
WHILE FAMILY AT HOME.
Bold Visitor Leaves on Command bnt
Tries to Re-enter Later Police
Think Man Drug-Fiend.
While surface indications developing
yesterday are that thugs have aban
doned the night time and preferred
broad daylight for their operations, the
police are extremely skeptical as to
the Information supplied them In one
case and set another down as the act
of a drug fiend or maniac.
Shortly after noon yesterday the po
lice were summoned to 81 North Four
teenth street, where Dale Hughbanks,
an engineer employed in the terminal
yards, reported that he had been
robbed at his doorway by an armed
highwayman. The man first made ln
autrv for a room, and then produced
a revolver, says Hughbanks, demanding
money. The victim replied mat ne naa
none, whereupon the Intruder seized
his trousers, carried them outside th
room and locked the door, leaving
Hughbanks inside. He removed a
purse and a matchsafe, of no value, but
obtained nothing else, tie is aescrmea
as well-dressed.
Immediately after this call came one
from Alblna, where Patrolman Maiion
was on the trail of a man who hao
forced entrance to three residences.
He first went to the home of Mrs. O.
Finseth, 724 Borthwick street, where he
tried to unlock a door, but failed. Mrs.
Finseth summoned the police and while
they were on the way the same man
went to the home of Mrs. L. Johnson.
717 Kirby street, and broke a lock,
forcing his way in. Finding a man in
the house he fled, but returned in a
few minutes and tried to enter the
House again.
He was next heard of at the home
of Mrs. Updegraf, 168 Ivy street, where
he walked straight in, but left when
commanded to do so. From the de
scription the police believe that the
man is a user of drugs. Patrolmen
Sherrlll and Johnson assisted Mallon
in searching the neighborhood, but the)
failed to overtake the object of their
search.

be hanged for the murder In March
1908 of Lee Tal Hoy during the height
of a tong war. Yee Gueng's case was
reversed by the Supreme Court of Ore

SEWER C0SJJS DISCUSSED
Peninsula Residents Fear Cost of
Contemplated Improvements.
That many property owners In the
Delaware avenue -
nlnsuhv .signed the remonstrance that
was recent - - -
because they were afraid of . the cost
of dredging uoiuniu -
statement made yesterday by C. A.
Zygowski. who lives In the district
and favors the construction of the
sewer. , '
Mr. ZygOWSKl SBia mm moio -in
2800 lots in mo ui.u.n -
had been ascertained from City Engi
neer that the average cost of the trunk
sewer and laterals will average about
i . rrh. Anmmtt.A nu assured
that the sewer will be low priced. The
cost of the trunk sewer will be fits.-
"Many property owners were scared
Into signing the remonstrance," said
Mr. -Zygowski, "because they were led
to believe that the cost of dredging
Columbia Slough would be a tremend
ous burden, whereas, If an intercepting
sewer is built it will cost upwards of
$2,000,000."
The remonstrance was signed by 4uu
property owners of the district. It
will be considered at the meeting of
the street committee today and both
sides will be represented.
TANK THIEF IS CONVICTED
Boy Charged With Stripping Auto
'Gets Six Months' Sentence.
Profitable traffic In gas tanks and
other attachments stolen from automo
miles is believed to have been broken
up in part by the conviction of Earl
Hawkins, 19 years old. In Municipal
Court yesterday, on a charge of steal
ing a tank from the car of W. H. See.
The youth pleaded guilty to selling the
tank, but asserted that It had been
given him by another young man whom
he did not know. He was sentenced
for six months.
Theft of detachable parts of automo
biles has been a growing practice in
recent months, . along with the almost
nightly taking off of some car bodily,
principally for Joy-ride purposes. Gas
tanks, in particular, have been the prey
of the thieves, and In one place, from
which Hawkins took his, eight tanks
were located by Detectives Smith and
Heppner. Tne tanks are worth $25
apiece and found a ready sale at a
garage at $7.50.

PLEA OF OID OFFEXDEB FOR
MERCY IS VAEf.
Elderly Man Admits Being Drunk
and Rifling Trunk of Benefactor
Who Provided Shelter.
For the 60th time, old Frank Printy
stood before the Municipal Court yes
terday and repeated his good Inten
tions, but by the very repetition he
took little profit from his plea. Bat
tered and sodden, the' old man admitted
being drunk and while in that condi
tion rifling the trunk of the man who
had befriended him by admitting him
to share his bed.
Some years ago Printy vied with Jim
Casey in coming before the court with
in three days of his release from each
succeeding sentence. Then, suddenly,
he dropped out of sight. Months went
by and one day a clean-shaven, neatly
dressed old man was observed sitting
among the spectators In the courtroom
where time after time he had been one
of the actors. The word went fortk
that the old man had reformed, had
joined a church and eschewed liquor.
Chief Slover took a personal interest
in the case and for a long time Printy
led a moral life.
Gone was the white collar and the
neat clothes, when Printy stood before
the court yesterday.
"I'll do different, your honor. If you'll
let me go," he pleaded.
. ifou can't let liquor alone, Printy,1
said Judge Tazwell.
1 will. 1 win, protesiea iiibuiu
man. tearfully, but the court choked
his protestations with a sentence for
90 days and Printy went back to the
box, probably to commence another
term at Llnnton.
"Too bad," commented Chief Slover.
"He had a good start, but I guess It
was no use."
Playground Offer Indorsed.
The offer of J. Fred Larson to pre
sent 10,000 square feet of land for a
public playground, which was followed
by an offer on the part of Gay Lom
bard to equip the playground, was
warmly commended in a resolution
adopted Wednesday night at the regular
monthly meeting of the Women's Press
Club of Oregon, which met in the
Mayor's Council room at the City Hall.
Arrangements are to be made to hold
weekly luncheons of the club after the
manner of the Ad Club, Rotary Club
and other organizations. A prize has
