4 TFTE SUNDAY OREGOXIAX. PORTLAND, JUNE 12, 1910. EXHIBIT WILL DRAW; Crowds Expected at Exhibits by Architects. ART DRAWINGS TO BE SEEN With Festival Activities Out of Way, Attention Will Be Diverted to Fine Colection to Be Placed on View. Mow that the rush and confusion of the Rose Festival is over, M. A. Vinson, manager of the traveling: collection of mural decorations, architectural de signs, rare etchings, etc., by noted Eastern painters, which is a part of the Architectural Club's exhibit at the Museum of Art, is expecting a rush of attendance through the closing week of the free exhibition. Rose Festival affairs have diverted attention, somewhat,, from the big ex hibit, which opened June 3, and the attendance has not, to date, been nearly bo great as that drawn by the traveling collection of fine drawings and paint ings in Los Angeles and San Francisco, where they were recently on exhibi tion. But during the closing week it is hoped that more general interest will be aroused, and that Portland will demonstrate an appreciation of the vis iting paintings and drawings quite equal to that of the California' cities. This afternoon the Museum doors will be open to the general public, without admission charge, from 2 o'clock to 5 o'clock, and those who have not had the opportunity of viewing the exhib ition through the week, will find an hour or two of pleasant educational entertainment in looking over and studying the original drawings by Blashfield. the celebrated mural artist: the splendid Fennell etchings, and the various other treasures of the exhibit. A note of local interest, and a more personal atmosphere. Is lent the ex hibition by the numerous showings of local things artistic. Antique . furni ture, beautiful pieces of carving, fine bronze bas reliefs, rare Oriental rugs, artistic brick panelling, and many other interesting showings have been placed on exhibit by local art workers, and throughout the galleries, . on all the walla and display counters, there are helpful" ideas in artistic building and furnishing. . - - - Of wider scope are the architects' drawings of many of the country's most beautiful and imposing public buildings and private mansions. Views of huge steel buildings in course of construc tion, the' famous Chelsea docks, and many other fine pieces of modern archi tectural genius, are' shown in sectional detail and: as completed work, by ar chitects drawings and enlarged photo graphs, offering an opportunity for the student, and for all whose minds are open to the educational influences the Portland Architectural Club is seeking . 1 1 ..

But, happily, they appear to be free from that spirit of boasting and "boosting" which leads so many Westerners to talk as ir their particular location was the only one in the universe fit for the habitation of a self-respecting white person. Perhaps this restraint arises, in part, from the fact that Portland is not "new" possibly it comes from a knowledge of solid achievement and a calm confidence in a prosperous future. Five years ago, Portland struck one as being in a- transition stage. It was be ginning to be differentiated, as it were, from being merely, one of a number of small towns. That some people had faith in its future was shown by the presence of a relatively few very sub stantial business buildings, but it was not quite clear to the stranger whether these represented on the part of their owners, intelligent foresight or mistaken optimism. In the interval, this question has been answered beyond doubt. The city has been almost completely trans formed by the erection of numerous commodious, attractive buildings, which In their style and appointments would be a credit to any city in the world; and I am convinced that this is only a frac tion of what will be accomplished in the comporatively near future. So far as can be judged, this wonderful progress is solid and substantial, showing no evi dence of a ''boom." As a chemist, I have been greatly in terested to observe that the growth of the city has not been allowed to inter fere with the purity of the water supply, and that the sewerage disposal appears to be adequate. In conclusion, may I ask one question? How soon is the city going to undertake the construction of a subway traction system? The time for Its' serious con sideration would appear -to have fully arrived. J. BISHOP TINGLE. McMaster. University, Toronto, Canada. HUSBAND HAS RIGHTS EX-SEXATOR'S WIFE STARTLES MOTHERS' CONGRESS. 'Man of America Real Home-Mater, Not Woman,"-Says Mrs. Dubois. Cause of Unhappy Marriages. ' DENVER, Colo., June 11. Round table discussion of proper sanitation in school for the protection of children was the principal part of today's programme of the 14th annual convention of the Na tional Mothers' Congress. Mr?. Orville T. Bright, of Chicago, who presided, stated her belief to be that on the first 12 years of a child's life depends its entire future welfare and health. . Mrs. Dubois, wife of ex-United States Senator Dubois, of Idaho, startled the convention by making Inquiry concerning the husband. . Mrs. Dubois contends that men' have rights that women- must consider. "The man of America," said Mrs. Du bois in a brief address to the convention, "is the real home-maker, and ' not the woman." - Discussing causes for unhappy mar riages, Mrs. Dubois said: "The fault lies with men and women who enter marriage untrained for its re sponsibilities. This fault is one that the Mothers' Congress is bound to efface and they are startirg with the children and implanting in them ideas of unselfishness and regard for the rights of others." Officers' reports showed that the con gress was In flourishing condition. T BUTTE MAN SUFFERS BRUTAL TREATMENT ROBBED. Initiative Ordinance Lost by 28 Ma jority Has Plant Wins. ASHLAND. Or., June 11. (Special.) Ashland voters, by a majority of 2S, to day turned down an Initiative ordinance, proposed by John R. Allen, for a street railway franchise in the city. The op position developed was not against grant ing a franchln; for the purpose desired by Mr. Allen, but the terms of the fran chise up for indorsement. . were con sidered by many too sweeping. A fran chise, asked by J. R. Anderson for a . gas plant, was voted on at the same election and carried by an overwhelming vote. The Shrlners of Hillah Temple had a great fete In Ashland this afternoon and evening which brought together members of the Mystic Order from all parts of Southern Oregon and Northern California. A street pageant was the feature of the afternoon. Tonight a class of 18 candi dates crossed the hot sands to Mecca with the accustomed ceremonies of the order. PORTLAND HIGHLY PRAISED Candid Comment, From a Compari son Begun Five Years Ago. PORTLAND, June 11 (To the Editor.) At the time of the Lewis and Clark Exposition I had the good fortune to make my first visit to Portland. The knowledge gained then of the resources of the city and of its tributary territory impressed me greatly, but I reached the conclusion that, valuable as these re sources were, both actually and poten tially, Portland's richest possession was the wonderful energy, ability and conser vative optimism of her people. "Faith Is proved by works" from time to time during the interval I have ac cepted opportunities to invest in city and country property. The suggestion has now been made that I should endeavor to give, briefly, some impressions which have been made, by ihis second visit. The fact that my journey from Toronto has been through the United States, with irequent stops at intermediate places. gives material for comparison. To say i of the Portland people that thev are full of kindly courtesy and hospitality Is merely to say that they are Western to add, that tiiejr .are competent and With All Clothing Torn Fr6m Body, Rev. Mr. Sanderstrom Cries for ,Aid Suspect Caught. BUTTE. Mont., June 11. (Special.) Rev. Alexander Sanderstrom, of th9 Swedish Luthern Church, today was held up in his apartments in the Empire block on South Main street within easy call of the business portion of the city, robbed of SI 88 and stripped of every stitch of clothing he had on his back. The robber was particularly brutal, the preacher being mauled and beaten until he was practically helpless, following an attempt of the divine to hide his purse. With the preacher prostrate on the floor, the robber looted Mr. Sanderstrom's trunk of his savings for . four, years. While the thug "was thus occupied the minister, although he was absolutely nude, dashed from the room and began yelling frenziedly for help. The robber, dropping from the window into an alley, disappeared, but Detectives J. J. Murphy and James Larkin later ar rested James H. Howard upon, whom was found the preacher's watch. The suspect was finally identified by Rev. Sanderstrom. DAILY METEOROLOGICAL REPORT. PORTLAND. June 11. Maximum tem perature, U degrees; minimum. 54 decrees. River reading. 8 A.
