Acquisition of the White Shield hospital, located on the Blythe tract west of Willamette Heights, for use as a contagious hospital, will be recommended by City Health Officer Parrish to the special committee ap pointed by Mayor Baker to endeavor to locate proper faoilities for such a nospitai. After touring tha country adjacent to Portland for virtually the entire day, Dr. Parrish finally concluded his Journey by a visit to the White Shield institution, which is now unused. The property and buildings were donated to ths Christian Science church by E. Henry Wemme, to be utilized in car ing for girls in distress. Dr. Parrish said it might be possible to acquire the property through trade of property owned by the city but not in use. "Tha White Shield home would make a splendid contagious hospital." said Dr. Parrish. "It is isolated from other homes and buildings and it is hardly possible that objection would be raised to its use. With the excep tion of this place I can locate no other that would be suitable as a contagious hospital and which Is also properly Isolated. The need of a contagious hospital Is held by Dr. Parrish to be imperative. At the present time the email build ing utilized by the city as a smallpox hospital is filled to overflowing, with many cases scattered throughout ths city. Dinner Tonight to - Honor Late Oregon Pioneer. One Hundredth Anniversary of the Birth of Dr. Georxi Henry Atkln ioa te Be Celebrated rHE 100th anniversary of the birth L of Dr. George Henry Atkinson, Oregon pioneer, will be celebrated to night at a dinner in the church that bears his nama, tha Atkinson Me morial Congregational church. Twenty-ninth and East Everett streets. All of the Congregational churches in Portland and vicinity will send delegates to the dinner and meeting. Dr. W. T. McElveen of the First Con gregational church has been asked to give the principal address. Dr. Atkinson was the' first minister sent west of the Rocky mountains by the Congregationalists. He was much more than a minister. He was preacher, educator, statesman, agri culturist and general prompting of hundreds of good causes. His boy hood experiences on a New England farm and the practical courses in chemistry at Dartmouth college 'made him acquainted with soils and their adaptation to various crops. He was a pioneer in the belief that the sage brush plains of eastern Oregon would make a splendid wheat growing country. When Dr. Atkinson came to Oregon in June, 1848, he brought with him more than $2000 worth of school books, the first big shipment of books from the east to the Pacific coast. These books he gave away or sold at cost. He was instrumental in obtain ing free schools when General Joseph Lane, first territorial governor of Oregon, took office in 1849. The school law which Dr. Atkinson pre pared at Governor Lane's request is the basis of the school law of Oregon today. Dr. Atkinson served as a public school commissioner and was the founder of the Tualatin academy and Pacific university of Forest Grove. He organized the Congregational church at Oregon City and preached at many stations which have since instituted churches. The Christmas Store For Men Old Murder Indicated by Finding of Skeleton. Rones Taken From Genaponl Be tween Tall Ruildinsjx Still Bound by Cords Are Unearthed. ECHOES of some old murder mystery of the time probably when Portland was an open town were brought to light yesterday after noon by the discovery of some human bones in what had apparently been cesspool in the rear of tha long shoremen's heaoquortera on Flanders street, between Fourth and fifth streets. A mummified hand, which had evi dently been dug out by some dog, was discovered by longshoremen and the police were immediately notified. Motorcycle Detective Horack made an investigation and later turned the re mains over to Deputy Coroner Calkins. Two hands, two feet, a rib and some other minor bones were dis covered, but not enough to make iden tification possible. Cords were still passed around the feet, indicating that the person had been bound before being deposited there. The old cesspool, now filled up, oc cupied practically the center of the bloek bounded by Flanders, Glisan Fourth and Fifth streets. It was be tween tall buildings in a little fre quented place. ..E.
