Fair weather ushered in the first day of the Fourteenth annual session of the Willamette Valley Chautauqua Assembly Tuesday morning. The beautiful shady" groves of Gladstone Park were .thronged with people from Portland, Oregon City and other val ley towns. Campers are numerous and are coming in fast, and the grounds are dotted with white tents, Dr. Clarence True Wilson, of Grace Methodist Episcopal Church of Port land, was the central figures at the opening ceremonies. The Cheniawa Indian School Band rendered a selec tion and the invocation was delivered by Rev. Clarence Oakley, pastor of the First Congregational Church ot Oregon City. The address of welcome was to have been made by Congress man Willis Chatman Hawley, .presi dent of the Assembly, but his train was late and Dr. Wilson made the principal address. He said in part: "There are four things which re quire careful training before one can rightfully be called educated. He must have knowledge, thought, power,' general ability and purposeful activ ity. And these institutions for higher education furnish the best facilities for storing the mind with general knowledge, for devolping capacity for close application and investigation, for ability to communicate informa tion to others, and for a disposition to labor for the amelioration of the race. These four qualifications must unite in a thoroughly trained man." Most of the classes were arranged Tuesday morning. Prof. W. Eugene Knox arrived from Tacoma Tuesday afternoon, too late to give his reading, and will conduct his class in elocu tion from 9 to 10 A. M. The class in United States History, under the di rection of Congressman Hawley, will be opened Friday. Miss Lillian Tingle, who has the Domestic Science' class in charge, has some difficulty in ob taining quarters, as no tents are to be had in Portland, but she will prob ably be assigned to the annex of the Chautauqua Irtestaurant. The Chau tauqua Forum is held daily from 11 A. M. until noon, and is under the di rection of Mrs. Eva. Emery Dye. Dr. Stanley L. Krebs, of Evanston, 111., who was here two years ago, was the lecturer Tuesday afternoon and talked on "Wonders of the World Within." ' He commented on the pres ence of so many women in the audi torium, and said that this had been his experience in other Chautauquas. He had. however, found one nlace where there were $03 men and only 13 women, hut this was In jail. "Women are first In moral, spiritual and intellectual life," said Dr. Krebs. "I will turn the light of 'science on human personality," said the speaker, and it may shock you to find that you are not what you toughhf bOIN you are not what you thought you were. Matter is necessary to mind and always will be. Mind acts with matter and never can we get the two apart. Two or more of the lowest .x r j 'y DR. B. J.

Dr. Krebs defined the difference between the mind and the soul by the use of charts and was frequently applauded whenever he made a tell ing hit. The attendance increased during the first ball game of the schedule be tween the Brainard Cubs and the Che mawa team. The Indians led off with over.

C. 1 THE THIRTY DAYS' TRIAL OFFER APPLIES ONLY TO CON SUMERS OF OUR CURRENT. Dr. Krebs delivered an Interesting lecture Tuesday night on "Mysteries of Mediums and Mind Readers Ex posed." He first reproduced the spirit manifestations and then gave ex planations. His talk was sensational and was more on the order of an en tertainment than a lecture and creat ed even a better impression than the afternoon lecture. He conducted a slate writing seance, and received "messages" from the dead; doubly blind folded he read cards and even names written on them; he explained how riding through the streets blind folded is done. The whole entertain ment was unusaully exciting and ab sorbing and was given as a public warning against the Btartllng frauds now daily practiced upon tens of thousands of honest and unsuspecting people. The attendance at the second day's session of the Willamette Valley Chautauqua showed a material in crease over that of the opening day. Music has always been a drawing card at Gladstone Park, and the larg est crowds present at the last session were when the musical evenings were held. Dr. R. A. Heritage, musi cal director of the Assembly, arrang ed a fine programme for Wednesday night's entertainment and a goodly number of people filled the vast aud itorium. Mrs. Hallie Parrlsh Hinges, one of the best known soloists of the Willamette Valley, sang her numbers in superb style, and the Gounod num ber of Dr. Heritage was well adapted to his deep basso. Mr. Arthur von Jessen made his first appearance on the Chautauqua platform and his ren dition of the Verdi-Liszt "RIgeletto" was brilliant. The Trunkmakers had a walkover Wednesday in the second ball game of the series and defeated the North Pacific team by a score of 9 to 0. The victors prevented their opponents from reaching second base, and the errors of the North Pacific players phone. He sang to his own piano ac companiment, and gave a barrel of fact, a bushel of fun and a bite ot philosophy. He concluded by saying that he never could harmonize his own philosophy with two things- mosquitoes and sea sickness. Prof. W. Eugene Knox made his first appearance on the platform Wed nesday and was warmly welcomed. He recited several humorous selections, UNITED STATES SENATOR ELMER J.

The latter is working on the suspension bridge and Miss Gordon resides at Ninth and Main streets In the Red Front building. C. Bristol, and the change Is schedul ed to come off at the next meeting of Congress, in December, according to a rumor that has gained In scope and increased in volume within the past two weeks, until political centers are all agog. Adding weight and credibility to the story Is the fact that Mr. Schuebel a few weeks ago made a trip to Wash ington, where, about June 1, he was for hours in conference with the jun ior Senator from Oregon. Immediate ly upon his return from the National Capital the story leaked out, and has been repeated to the effect that Sen ator Bourne promised to make Schue bel United States Attorney, and as sured him there would be no diffi culty In landing the place if Schuebel could get Senator Fulton's Indorse ment. Whether Senator Fulton has placed his vise on Schuebel's candidacy re mains for time and devolpments to solve, but It is known that last Sat urday, In company with Judge Thomas A. McBride, Mr. Schuebel went to Astoria and held a conference with the Senator. That the United States Attorneyship was mentioned a time or two at this tete-a-tete is good guessing material. tl is common rumor in a few circles that Bristol is scheduled for retire ment. Senator Fulton Is notoriously hostile to him, and when he was re appointed, after the adjournment of the lust Congress, it was announced at the time his new lease of official life was only good until next Winter.
