The City Banquets
The greatest and grandest social
event of the year took ptace in the
Holbrook building Tuesday night.
The event was in honor of Capt.
George II. Du-bar, master of the
mammoth dredger Chinook, the
officers of the boat, and also Dan J
Mayer, president of the Marine
Iron Works, which has just com
pitted the overhauling and altering
of the boit. The hattq'tet was got
ten up in a rather hurried in inner,
as the captain and crew were sched
tiled to depart with the big vessel
Wednesday for the mouth of the
Columbia. In spite of the short
ness of the notice, the affair could
not have been better The ladies
worked like Trogans in preparing
the spread and decorating the ban
quct hall of the M. W. of A. The
citizens of St. Johns turned out iti
masse to do honor to those who arc
known so well and arc so highly
respected. Annexers, otitis, Kc
publicans, Democrats and mug
wumps mingled together, all vicing
to make the occasion as agreeable
nnd delightful as possible. It was
a veritable love feast. Every one
was in good humor and it was cer
tainly the most congenial gathering
that had ever assembled in St.
Johns. The ladies were attired in
the most beautiful garbs imaginable
and presented a most pleasing
sight. The old Commercial club
rooms were thrown open and the
gentlemen assembled there for the
smoking hour. The banquet hall
was decorated in a splendid style,
and the four long tables that ex
tended from one end of the halt to
the other, presented an appearance
that would have made the most
pronounced epicurean gasp with de
light. All that the inner inaif could
desire or crave was there in abun
dance and temptingly arrayed. A
bevy of St. Johns' most beautiful
young ladies attended to the wants
ot the guests and was a feature that
added no little to the pleasure ol
the evening. Almost aoo diners
were nccommoduted at the first
tables, and there was plenty left for
those to follow, During the dining
hour the gursls were regaled with
strains of music furnished by Gat
loway's orchestra, which did itself
proud, and was the recipient ol
many complimentary remarks.
After the guests had eaten to
their heart's content, Toastmastci
J. F. Hendricks arose and in it few
appropriate and pleasing remark
stated the object of the gathering
and introduced the speakers. The
first called upon was C. II. Boyd,
principal of the St. Johns schools,
The professor chose as his theme the
word "Signs." He told of the
many signs that portended St.
Johns' future greatness signs of
building, expansion nnd develop
ment and incidentally mentioned
the fact that 70 more pupils ap
peared at the opening of the schools
this year than last, in spite of the
fact that the parochial school, with
35 or 30 pupils, had opened up for
thc(first time. He concluded his
remarks with a vivid word picture
of the St. Johns of the future with
Its ocean traffic extending to all
parts of the world and the hum of
industry that would extend from
water edge to water edge.
C. C. Woodhouse, whose abid
ing lalth in St. Johns is illustrated
by the handsome brick block he
hqs tiow under construction on
Philadelphia street, was the next
speaker. He p'ctured In metaphor
a large tree ' with its main root
planted hi the Columbia river and
its branches mid arteries reaching
far up the river, Into the fertile vol
leys aud frult&aden districts, then
up the Willamette to Its uttermost
length, with Its grain, and fruit and
gold aud silver and copper mines,
all of which must of necessity find
Its way along the route of the least
resistance to the root of the tree, In
suring beyond the shadow of a
doubt that St. Johns is bound to be
a most Important city, and will be
known throughout the civilized
world. Ie said that when the
babies of today have whiskers St
Johns will still be found to be
steadily and rapidly progressing
and advancing;
Judge A, M. Essop, St. Johns'
most ready, pleasing aud witty
speaker, was next on the list. It
is always a keen pleasure to hear
the "jedge" talk, because bespeaks
in such an eloquent and winning
manner. He eulogized Capt. Dun
bar and stated that some good can
come out of the captain's native
state Iaine even if the recent
election has disclosed the fact that
there must be some Democrats
there. His early impressions of a
captain's cabiu were received with
vociferous applause.
.Capt. Duubar then in a few well
chosen words expressed his heart
felt thanks for the honor extended
and attested to the warm feeling he
.Jiad for St. Johns and its people
during hU stay of five years in our
'm'tdst, and that it felt more like
home here than in any place he had
been durwe ins sea faring life.
Chief Eneineer Marhoff then
gave a nice little talk in which -he
' stated tliat the work on the Chinook
done by the Marine Iron Works
was the, best that uad ever oeen
(tone an the coast.
Mayor Hendricks in his closing
remarks told ot tne pleasure 11
cave him to be one of such a gath
ering, and believed it would augur
well for the welfare of St. Johns if
such assemblages were held more
frequently.
After the speaking the "deck"
was cleared for action and dancing
was inaugurated. Those Hint found
pleasure in tripping o'er the floor
enjoyed ttiemseives to the fullest
degree. Others joined In social
conversation or watched the dancers
mil T
CAPT, O. It, DUN11AK
enjoy themselves. Havanas were
plentiful and many of the gentle
men enjoyed themselves in the
smoking room.
The event was one that will long
be remembered. Not a hitch of
any kind marred the occasion.
Good cheer aud good fellowship
held full sway, nnd as every one
remarked: "It could not have been
better."
Capt. Dunbar, during his five
years stay in St. Johns, has ever
conducted himself as a gentleman
in every sense of the word. He Is
possessed of many admirable quali
ties that have made him numerous
warm-hearted and loyal friends,
aud wherever he may go, he may
rest nsittrcd. that there is ever a
warm spot In the hcarti of the peo
ple of St. Johns for Capt. Ok II.

Will Hold Fair
Last Friday evening the Knights
of Pythias and ladies spent a de
lightful evening in the K. or I'.
hall. Refreshments, consisting of
saner kraut and weiucrs, dill pick-
els, sandwiches and coffee, were
served. Business was combined
with pleasure, and ways and means
to raise funds for the proposed new
castle hall were considered. It was
finally decided to hold a three or
four days' fair, in which all kinds
of amusements aud vaudeville
stuti's will be Indulged in. The
date for holding same was not de
finitely decided upon, but at the
regular meeting of the Order to
night this will iio doubt be settled.
A large attendance was present aud
the evening was thoroughly en
joyed by all.
Portland's Harvest Festival,
which was the big feature of the
past week in Portland, was the
most successful such event in the
history of the city. The crowds
were the biggest ever attending any
similar affair in the state, with the
exception of the livestock show at
the Lewis and CI irk fair, ine
stock was of a very high class and
the races were run for the biggest
purses ever offered In the North-
w st. The support given the Fair
was gratifying and plans are being
outlined for a $1,000,000 livestock
show next year.
Mrs. M. H. Fosdlck, who, for
several years, conducted the White
House hotel in this city, lett last
week for Culver Junction, Crook
county, Oregon, where she has
opened up a first class hotel, which
she also styles the White House.
Mrs. Fosdlck has made many
friends in St. Johns who wish her
unbounded success in her new un
dertaking.
Street cars now run over the new
bridge at the cut. The-bridge Is a
handsome affair and is said to have
cost !6o,ooo. Passengers, now feel
a greater sense of security in cross
ing the cut, as the old bridge was
Retting in a precarious condition,
especially so at the northern
approach.

A. Roe, proprietor of the Ar
cadia Hotel ot Arcadia, Florida,
was a visitor in St. Johns the latter
part of last week. He has a son
living near Portland, whom he has
been visiting, but having heard so
much concerning St. Johns, decided
to make it a visit before returning
home. He was greatly pleased
with his visit here.

Piece of Deviltry
When the directors went over to
the Newport school building to see
about getting it ready to open the
school, they found that some mis
creant or more than one had gained
an entrance into the building, car
ried off all the electric globes, all
the keys to the Inside doors of the
building, plugged all the closets
aud soiled all the floors. To say
the directors are agitated is draw
ingit mildly. They offer $25.00
for evidence that will convict the
guilty party or parties. It Is hoped
that they may be apprehended and
punlshed.for It Is the vilest piece of
deviltry that has been perpetrated
in St. Johns in years.

Woman's League
The Portland Chapter of the
"American Woman's League" held
its regular meeting last Friday
evening in the City Hall, much in
terest being evinced in the work for
the ensuing year.
Until further notice the meetings
will be held every Friday night at
the same time and place in order to
facilitate work and more extensive
ly outline plans for the future of the
local chapter.
It is of vital importance to the
Portland organization that a good
representation of Iter members be at
the annual election of officers,
which takes place Friday evening,
Sept. tCth, aud each member is
urged accordingly to aid by her
presence, while suggestions from
honorary members arc desired.
There can be but one barrier be
tween Portland aud a beautiful
chapter or club house, which will
be built by a local contractor, fur
nished complete and maintained in
the future by the organization with
out financial output cither of the
members or the city, (aside from
the building site), aud that is,
inactivity on the part of the mem
bers themselves, in failing to quick
ly complete membership require
ments aud enlisting others in the
ranks.
The goal is well worth everv In
dividual effort and all our united
efforts, and with such incentive as
lies back of the plan of this grand
organization with a membership of
about 100,000, representing every
state in the union, every member
should be stimulated by unbounded
enthusiasm and quick action.
The courses of the correspondence
schools that have affiliated with the
League arc absolutely free to every
member and her minor children, be
ginning from the day of signing ap
plication for membership. It is
an opportunity you cannot afford
to lose, and one you should feel
obligated to bring to the attention
of your friends who would be bene
fited thereby.
To those who have not been reg
ular in attendance, a most cordial
invitation is extended to come Fri
day, Sept. 16th, bringing one or
more of your friends with you.
The inactivity of one member is
like the inaction of a vital organ of
the human body in Its effect, hin
ders and retards progress aud
growth.
St. Johns, too, wants to wake up
and take notice of what is being
done by the "American Woman's
League." Sixty members entitles
St. Johns to a 4000 chapter house,
absolutely free of any obligation
other than the compliance with the
membership requirement ot secur
ing $52.00 in subscriptions to the
various. magazines published in the
United states, witli one year in
which to do it, at the rate of $1.00
per week In subscriptions secured
among your friends. The benefits
are unlimited, aud aside from the
individual benefits, St. Johns wom
en ought to have n Chapter or
ganization and later a Chapter
house. League literature will be
furnished upon application.

Just a Pointer
Among the proposed charter
amendments before the voters of
St. Johns last April was one allow
iug for street improvement up to
the full assessed valuation of the ad
joining property. This proposed
measure was turned down in a
niost emphatic manner at the polls,
Aud vet this same provision is con
tallied in the charter of the city of
Portland. Therefore, if annexa
tion were to take place any prop
erty in St. Johns could be taxed to
its full assessed valuation for street
improvement. Thus if a man had
a lot assessed at $200, street iin
provemeut to that extent could be
inaugurated under the present
Portland charter. Also, nothing
but cement sidewalks are pcrmissi
ble by virtue of an ordinance passed
by the Portland council. So if
your property would not stand for
cement walks you could have the
pleasure of treading through the
mud or dust. Portland can tax
property for street improvement
twice as much as the city of St.
Johns can under its charter. This
is a point that it might be well to
remember.
Ed Rawsou, of St. Johns, in
ventor and manufacturer of a wood
working machine, which he has
named the "Greatest Machine on
Earth," has made a gavel on .this
machine which is a great curiosity,
and he will send it to Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt, of whom he is
a great admirer. The head of the
gavel is made of iron bark with
wood-fiber ferrules, and has the
name "Teddy" inlaid in small
blocks on one side. The handle is
made of apple and has 67 solid
rings, in four sizes, cut out of the
wood, each one a separate aud solid
piece. This complicated affair was
made by Mr. Kawson on his ma
chine in about two hours, but
would take a lifetime to cut out by
hand, if it were at all possible to
do it In this manner. Telegram.

Catlin, Wash., where he has spent

Fever Dying Out
The annexation fever seems to
be dying out, to an extent at least.
Many of those who signed the pe
tition asking that the matter be
brought to a vote of the people
have chanced their views and now
believe it to be to the' best interests
of St. Johns not to annex at this
time. The proposition, when it
was first brought to their attention,
was rather alluring and looked
good on the surface. But a little
delving below the top layer revealed
its many disadvantages and objec
tions. The fact that Portland has
everything to gain and St. Johns
everything to lose, with one or two
minor exceptions, by annexation
has become more apparent after a
ittle reflection. Many signed the
petition under the belief that a
large majority of the citizens
wanted to annex; others did so just
to irct rid of the persistent petition
ers, while the others were honest in
their belief that conditions would
thus be improved. '
Thinking, discussion aud reflec
tion have worked a decided change
in public sentiment, and where it
would have been a close vote had
the issue been up for balloting upon
several weeks ago, today annexa
tion would be defeated by an over
whelming majority. The annexa
tionist who was brave enough to
express his views on the street cor
ners has been so overpowered with
arguments aud facts against annex
ation, that it is seldom 011c has the
temerity now to do so. The ogita
tlou has not been devoid of good,
however. Many have becu made
to realize to a greater degree than
ever before the manifold blessings
we enjoy as citizens of St. Johns.
Whether the issue finds a place 011
the ballot or not, no bitter feelings
should be engendered. We arc all
neighbors and fellow citizens, aud
while we cannot all think alike, we
all need each other's help, and any
discussion on the question should
ever be in a friendly and rational
manner.

Appendicitis
Appendicitis is usually first mani
fested by the presence of a keen,
severe, stabbing pain in the region
of the right groin. Combined witli
this symptom there may be colicky
pain in the region of the bowels.
One may notice extreme tenderness
upon pressure in the region indi
cated. In many cases the patient
has a severe chill, followed by a
quick, high fever. The patient be
comes rapidly ill in some instances,
and at times enters a state of utter
collapse. The pulse becomes rapid,
and although stroug at first, soou
becomes feeble. Invariably there
is nausea, and sometimes severe
yomitiiig. Constipation is always
present. The abdomen frequently
becomes swollen aud the skin over
t is tight as a drum head. The
pain Is often spasmodic in char
acter, not continuous.
When threatened with appendi
citis, the first thing to do is to
knead the abdomen in a circle, go
ng up the right side; across the
upper side from right to left; down
the left side; across the lower part
from left to right. Frequently, the
symptoms of the disease will quick-
iy disappear uuuer una xncauiug
firoccss. Of course, this treatment
s impossible after the disease has
thoroughly developed.
When the disease has fully de
veloped, the very first remedy that
should be used is a copious flushing
of the lower bowel, that it may be
cleaned absolutely of fecal matter.

A Gusher Imminent
M. F. Loy has returned from his
visit to the Eastern states, and
stopped off a few days at the Mal

with him a bottle of oil secured
there as a testimonial that n large
body of oil is imminent. He says
that prospects were never brighter
and he is firmly of the belief that a
gusher wilt be struck Inside the
next thirty days. Oil is brought
up with every bucket aud the air is
heavy with the odor. The Ontario
company is now down over 4000

ground agree that it is ouly a ques
tion of a few feet more until the

Why We Are Wanted
'H A
Residents 'Of Stf "Johns, Lents
and the district northwest of the
city may not be given the oppor
tunity of voting on the proposition
of annexation to Portland at the
November election. At the meet
ing of the judiciary committee of
the city council yesterday afternoon
the question of permitting the
voters of these suburbs to vote on
the matter was discussed in detail,
and there was considerable opposi
tion to the plan.
Councilman Cellars, in particular,
displayed an inclination to defer
the annexation proposition. He
said he believed the city charter
should be changed so that the
voters of both the city and the dis
tricts to be annexed should have a
voice iu the matter, instead of lcav-
ug the proposition entirely to the
voters of the district seeking ad
mission to the city.
Councilman Ellis, the other mem
ber of the committee present, was
ti favor of passing the necessary
ordinances giving the districts seek
ing annexation an opportunity of
voting on the proposition. He said
the city would profit by the addition
of these new territories, as the as
sessed valuation on which the taxes
of the city arc levied would be
arccr. while thcscdistricts WOULD
EXPECT LITTLE FROM THE
CITY FOR SEVERAL YEARS.
What they desired, he said, was to
secure advantage of city improve
ments which they would PAY FOR
THEMSELVES. They could se
cure good streets, sewtrs and water
mains and could bond their prop
erty for them. Tuesday's Tele
