Noyea In the Nome contempt case
In investigation before United
Hot States Commissioner Hea
Water, cock today in San Francisco,
Attorney E. S. Pilsbury, in
his capacity as "amicus curiae," made
the dirct charge that a conspiracy ex
isted between United States District
Judge Noyes and others to obtain pos
session of a number of mines, near
Nome. After the examination of several
witnesses, and in answer to an objec
tion Attoney Pil 'bury said: "My the
ory is that McKenzie used Judge Noyes
as an instrument to carry out his pur
poses. When the facts came before
Judge Noyes suppressed them." Sam
uel Knight was recalled and asked:
"Did you get your property all back,
from the receiver?" "We were Bhort
just $9,000, which we did not receive un
til after McKenzie was arrested," re
sponded Knight.

Harmony Last Saturday.
The first meeting of the season of the
season of the Clackamas County Teach
ers' Association, was held at the Har
mony school house, near the Southern
Pacific railroad between Clackamas and
Milwaukie, last Saturday, was a vpry
satisfactory beginning for the work of
another fiscal year. County Superin
tendent Zinser presided, and the meet
inn opened by singing America. It was
announced that this was the time for
the election of new officers, with the
following result : Vice-president, V. A.
Davis, of the HarmoDy school; for sec
retary, Miss Fannie G. Porter,' of Ore
gon City, was re-elected ; treasurer,
Miss Lizzie Shipley, of Willamette. No
presidi nt was elected, as the county su
perintendent fills that position in ac
cordance with the bylaws of the organi
zation. The following -were elected of
ficers of the Clackamas County Teach
ers' Library Association : '
President, T. J. Gary; vice president.
Mi.-s Rebecca T. Smith ; treasurer. Miss
Lizzie Shipley.

The Harmony school is situated in
one of the most prosperous sections of
Clackamas county, and has an excellent
school and hoard of directors. The
principal is Mr. Davis, and the teacher
of the primhry department is Miss
Martha Sturchler. The people of Har
mony take great interest in educational
matters, and thoroughly appreciate
gathering of this kind.
About 75 persons were preeent at the
Harmony meeting. It is probable that
the next meeting of the association will
be a joint session at Aurora with the
Marion county teachers.
Miss Lizzie Shipley very acceptably
filled the duties of secretary pro-tern at
this meeting.

as the result of a fire which
occurred in the business section of
Philadelphia, yesterday. The list of in
jured is not known definitely, but fully
a scoie of victims were located at dif
ferent hospitals. Police and firemen
are tonight delving into the rnins in
search of bodies supposed to have been
buried beneath the debris, as it is
feared that others besides the known

and three-story buildings occupied by
small merchantmen.

Democrat's A dispatch from Seattle
Hopes. slates that republican
quarrels and the conflict
ing ambitions of divers republican
leaders have occupied the attectiou of
state politicians for the past several
months, to the exclusion of the democ
racy and its hopes and fears. This is
mainly due to the fact that the demo
cratic party has not been washing its
dirty linen in public like the republican
organization. Nevertheless, the demo
crats are active, and see in the division
of the republican party a chance to suc
ceed for themselves in the campaign of
next year.

Clackamas; Misses R. T. Smith, Millie
Kruse, Anneita Gleason and Jeannette
Fairclough, Oregon City.
Mrs. G. M. Strange, principal of the
Willsbnrg school, who was down on the
forenoon program to tell .."How to Make
the schoolroom Attractive, failed to
put in an appearance, and a general dis
cussion of the topic took place. Super
intendent Zinser believed it the teach
ers' duty to look her prettiest in the
cchoolroom, and to be at all times an ex
ample of neatness. Professor Gary
called attention to the fact that the most
successful teacher was the one who
could control the boys. He found pic
tures, books and papers a great help in
making the schoolroom home-like for
pupils. Miss Smith emphasized the
broad influence of pictures in the school
room. Alias Patty was a strong advo
cate of the use of plant leaves in the
schoolroom that the pupils took espec
ial pride in this decorative work, where
they gathered the leaves themselves.
Mr. Jones gave some practical ideas on
haw to prep ire autumn leaves for use in
schools, and also suggested plans of
starting a school library and how to in
terest the pupils in the work.
An elabuate dinner was served by
the people of Harmony with the best
the country afforded. ,
, AFTERNOON 8B88ION.
At the opening of the afternoon s e
sion the ilirmony -male quartet Bang
"Harvest Lome," and responded to mm
enthusiastic encore with another selec
tion. Then followed some recitations
and declamations and "A Mother's
Prayer," by the male quartet. (This
paper regrets that it was unable to se
cure the names of the local talent par
ticipating in tne aoove progiam )
The topic for the afternoon was
"Some Elements of a Successful Scdool,"
discussed under separate heads. Miss
Smith, principal of the Eastham school, ;
gave an excellent dissertation on "The
Teacher's Part " In part, Miss Smith
said teachers were born, not made. No
school or college education make a
teacher. The teacher should become a
power for good in the community by im
pressing their personality on the pupil.
Miss Smith closed by impressing the
fact th.it it isn't so much what pupil
get from books, but it is the moulding of
character that is of primary importance.
Superintendent Zinser took occasion to
emphasize the strong poiuts brought out
in Miss brmtti 's talk.
Miss Florence Patty, of the West Or
egon City school, presented "The pu
ptl's Part." She said that pupils
should be prompt, energetic, patient and
industrious. They, also should be en
thusiastic and strive to perform all du
ties as a pleasure, and not as a task.
"The Parent's Part." was presented
by Miss Kathryn Casto, of the Milwau
kie school, She advanced the idea that
the parents should aid the teacher in
every possible way, and let the teacher
understand that her labors are appreci
ated. The parents should not be
chrouic faultfinders; neither should
they nt any time sacrifice a child's
character to a teachers' reputation.
Superintendent Zinser spoke of mothers'
clubs in connection with the subject,
and would be glad to hear of thein in
connection with every school.
J. W. Fisher, principal of the Clack
amas school, talked of the "Director's
Part." He called attention to the fact
that the di.ector's part was a most im
portant one Tpe director should se
lect the best teacher possible, but not at
the lowest wages possible, the latter be
ing false economy. They should direct
and look after school property. August
Kanne, odb of the directors of the Har
mony sctiool district, followed with a
few remarks. Mr. Kanne is a life mem
ber of the library association.
The superintendents fart,' was
discussed by Professor If. T. Evans, of j
Oswego, lie said the superintendent
should have a close acquaintance with
parentf, and should enlighten them as !
to their duiies to their respective j
schools. Professor Gary spoke of the
importance of the superintendent hav
ing a strong personality. Superintend
ent Zinser spoke of the additional work
required in his office under the new
Echool law.
The usual boquets were thrown out by
adopting resolutions thanking the Har
mony people for their entertainment.
Ara McLaughlin, principal of the Mil
waukie school, gave a brief resume of
the work of the afternoon:
Other teachers not mentioned above
that were in attendance, are as follows:
Mr. and Mrs. Shirley Buck, Canemah ;
Mr. and Mrs. Millard Hiatt, Willamette
Falls; Miss Margaret Uuttridge, Os
wego; Grace Robinson and Celia
Thomson, Clackamas; Stella Sumner.
November Magazines,
Following the precedent of almost
thirty Thanksgiving Days, Horace Vose,
of Westerly Rhode Islaud, will send the
prize turkey of all his flocks to grace the
new presid 'nt's dinner table on Novem-
Derzs. "wtien Mr. vose oegan t e
custom of sending a turkey to the presi
dent," writes a contributor lo the No
vember Ladies? Home Journal, "he had
no motive other than the desire to send
a Thanksgiving bird to the man who
writes the Thanksgiving proclamations
The pioneer turkev went to President
Grant in 1373. It weighed thirty-six
pounds, aud elicited the fust of the
courteous notes that havn been coming
ever since in the acknowledgment tiom
the executive mansion. Mr Vose ha's
been dubbed 'The Turkey King.' All
through the summer and fall he makes
occasional visits to the f inns in the vi
cinity, keeping a watchful eye on the
many flocks, anA eagejly scanning the
strutting companies for the champion,
the distinguished member of all the
feathery tribe? that is to rise eventually
to the dignity of a place on the White
House dinner table. "
