Japanese Laborers In Mili

HAVE NEARLY 100 MEN
Report Current That Yellow
Men Executed Rifle
Practice In , Woods '
Last Sunday.
Some 75 or 100 Japanese were seen
last Sunday In a remote location
about two miles south of Currtnsvllle,
a flag station on the Estacada branch
of the Oregon Water Power Com
pany's line about 35 miles from Port
land, executing with considerable abil
ity a skirmish drill. The maneuvers
were conducted under commands
from one whose manner gave to him
the appearance of a commissioned of
ficer of the Japanese army.
I. J. Helms, a . barber employed in
The Model shop at 91 Sixth street,
with his wife was spending the day
last Sunday near Currinsville and hap
pened to wander some distance from
the railroad Into the woods. Attract
ed by the sound of gruff orders and
occasional rifle shots they ventured
further on until coming to an opening
in the timber they saw between 75
and 100 Japanese training In arms.
Mr. and Mrs, Helms were not no
ticed by the Japs and their drill was
not Interrupted. Some had rifles and
others sticks which they used as
rifles. A skirmish drill, was the na
ture of practice. At the command of
their leader they would run to a cer
tain position, fall flat on their stom
achs and fire at a target. Again the
command would be given and again
they would spring up, find a new posi
tion, fall flat and fire at the target
at a different angle.
Others, says the Oregon Journal, be
side Mr. Helms and his wife saw the
Japanese last Sunday. Three men
who were looking for berries also ran
upon the Japs. They thought little of
the circumstance at the time but as
they continued to think about it the
seriousness of the occurrence came to
them.
It is thought that the Japanese are
employed near there getting out logs
or making ties. However, those who
llbe near when they heard there were
nearly a hundred of them1, were sur
prised to learn that there were that
many Japs In that section. The place
chosen for the practice is near the
Clackamas River, far from many hab
itations and a location little likely to
be easily run upon. The training Jap
anese were seen about the middle of
the afternoon.

CHAUTAUQUA
ENDS SUNDAY
Thirteen Days' Assembly Is
Approaching a Close.
SUCCESS MARKS SESSION
Noted Southern Lecturer Is
Last Great Speaker and
Grand Concert Slated
For Saturday.
The presence of Governor Henry A.
Buchtel, of Colorado, at Chautauqua
Friday was the reason for an In
creased attendance, there being more
people at the lecture than at any pre
vious day In the session. The audi
torium, with a seating capacity of
3000, was nearly full, and the auditors
applauded the Governor time and
again. Buchtel is a great story teller,
and told a lot of tales from Mr.
Doolev.
Governor Buchtel's subject in the '
afternoon was "The Pleasantness of
American life," and he contrasted the
life of the American workman, with
the laborers of other countries, to
the disadvantage of the latter.
Mr. Buchtel talked on social equali
ty and gave some beautiful Illustra
tions. He discussed the religious
peace In this, country as compared
with France and England, and his
lecture abounded with contrasts, The
speaker dwelt on the natural appre
ciation of Amorlcan humor, and said
that after an Englishman has been
here 40 hours, he Is no longer an
Englishman, but becomes an Ameri
can. The Governor, after apologizing
to the Christian Scientists, and stat
ing that the medical men could not be
offended as they were at Seaside and
could not hear, said that if the doc
tors knew more about gruel and less
about poisons, and opened more win
dows and fewer patients, there would
not be so many Christian Sclentises.
Prof. W. Eugen Knox delighted the
audience Friday afternoon with two
recitations, the last being humorous,
coupled with stunning sneezes that
convulsed the people,
The baseball game Friday between
the Chemawa Indian team and the
Trunkmakers was won by the latter.
Both teams made three runs in the
first Inning and in the second- the
Indiana piled up two more, but the
Trunks changed pitchers in the third
and there was nothing doing for the
braves thereafter.
The score follows:
Chemawa 3 2000000 05
Trunkmakers . 30022010 8
The Portland Women's Club had
charge of the exercises at the Chau
tauqua Forum Friday morning, under
the direction of Its president, Mrs.
Frederick Eggert. Mrs. Sarah A.
Evans talked on "Oregon, as Viewed
from Jamestown," and Mrs. Wells
spoke on "Mothers' Clubs". The Club
chorus of 12 women In white gowns
gave selections with such charming
effect that by special request of
Goveror Buchtel they sang again in
the afternoon on the auditorium plat
form.
"Theodore Roosevelt" was the sub
ject of Governor Buchtel's lecture on
Friday night, and the manner in
which the delivery was given raised
the governor In the estimation of his
audience. The lecture is to be classed
among the very best on the lecture
platform and Is a great Inspiration.
Saturday is always a favorite day
at Gladstone Park, and last Saturday
was no exception. The weather was
beautiful and picnic parties were
much in evidence.
The feature of the day's program
was the lecture by Hon. Frank Stew
art Regan and the reception that fol
lowed in the W. C. T. U. tent, which
Is the "beauty spot" of the grounds.
He bears the distinction of having
been elected to the legislature of the
state of Illiolns from the tenth sena
torial district by a majority of more
than 3000 on the straight Prohibition
ticket. He asked his audience to con
sider themselves hearers In his own
district, and taking for his topic, "The
Saloon in Politics," went at the, pro
position hammer and tongs.
Immediately after the close oi tne
lecture a reception was tendered Mr.
Regan. The affair was In charge of
Mrs. Lucia Faxon Auditon. Kev.
James Hoffman Batten, of North Da-
gota, talked entertalnly on the pro
hibitory laws of his state and torn
how they had been strengthened this
year. Solicitors are not permitted to
go after liquor business and the ef
fort to sell booze Is confined to me
malls. Railroads and express com
panies are not allowed to have their
property utilized for the storing of
liquor and several warehouses have
been closed for violating tne law.
The Mothera' Congress was held
Saturday during the Chautauqua For
um, Mrs. Elmer B. Colwell, presiding.
Dr. Charles H. Chapman talked on
"The Training of Teachers," and said
that Oregon needs not only four nor
mal schools, but a dozen, that every
teacher in Oregon might be trained
for her work. Dr. Chapman said that
more married women are needed In
the public schools as they have the
most experience about children and
it Is suicidal to shut them out. The
speaker stated that all teachers, both
men and women, should be paid bet
ter salaries, and he bitterly criticized
Dr. Lyman Abbot's magazine, "The
Outlook," which he characterized as
"the foe of women," for Inducing Gov
ernor Hughes to veto the law passed
by the New York legislature giving
the women teachers in New York the
same pay as the men for the same
work.
C. C. Chapman, of the Chapman Ad
vertising Company, made a splendid
talk on "Efficiency in Education," and
complained of the difficulty in finding
stenographers versed In the simple
art of spelling. The third speaker was
Prof. Mary F. Farnham, of Pacific
University, who spoke on "Civic Im
provement," as Illustrated by the
work done in beautifying the charm
ing little town of Forest Grove, until
now it is known as .the prettiest little
city in Oregon.
Prof. C. M. Cady, of the Boston
School of Music, was among the visi
tors at Chautauqua, and he has ar
ranged for a sacred concert by class
ical performers at Chautauqua Sun
day evening, July 21.
The baseball game Saturday be
tween the North Pacific and the East
Side Athletic Cub was the best of
the schedule and fast fielding and
hard hitting on both sides was the
feature. The game was won by North
Pacific with a score of 6 to 3, and the
winners secured nine hits.
The beautiful rustic cantata,
"Months and Seasons," was given on
Saturday night by 75 school children
of Parkplace and Oregon City under
the direction of Dr. R. A. Heritage,
musical director of Chautauqua. The
auditorium was crowded and the pro
gramme was very creditably carried
out. The soloists for the months
were: "January, Cora Douthlt; Feb
ruary, Isabelle Clark; March, Grace
Zlnser; April, Stella Cross; May, Mo
rieta Hickman; June. Alta Millard:
July, Hattie Krugr; August, Maud
Booker; September. Florence Hewitt:
October, Bunnle Ownsby; November,
unristine Kraust; December, Ruth
Rauch. "The Oregon Grape," words
by Mrs. Eva Emery Dye and music by
Father Dominic of Mount Angel, was
redered by Miss Nellie Roberts, of
Salem and chorus, and Mr. Arthur
von Jessen was at the piano. Tho chil
dren were In costume and the tableoux
with flower girls, maids of honor,
crown bearers and choruses formed a
charming picture. The "Anvil Chor
us," from II Trovatore, was given as
an intermezzo, with three anvils In
the chorus. There has been no chil
dren's cantata at Gladstone Park for
many years and the feature was care
fully worked out by Dr. Herltace and
excited much admiration and ap
plause.
Hundreds of people sought the cool
groves of Gladstone Park and spent
atinnay on the Chautauqua grounds.
The attendance was better than any
aunuay in the memory of Chautau-
quans. More than 800 tickets for the
grounds were sold at the Portland of
fice of the Oregon Water Power &
Railway Company before noon. Frank
Stewart Regan lectured at 2 o'clock,
and his cartoons were effective. The
speaker drew several pictures and il
lustrated his points as he went. His
last picture was taking, and first he
showed the grand old ocean, with a
ship at sea coming in. Mr. Regan
placed In the picture a rocky point
and a lighthouse and then the inside
harbor of San Francisco. Back of
this he drew a timbered country, mak
ing a railroad through a cut that re
sembled a scene on the O. R. & N. up
the Columbia and finally the hoary
neaa or Mount Hood loomed up In
tne distance.
Mrs. Sarah A. Evane presided Sun
day afternoon at the Chautauqua For
um under the direction of the Young
Women's Christian Association. Miss
Metta Brown sang and Miss Con
stance McCorckle, general secretary,
made an address on "The Portland
Girl and the Y. W. C. A." A cornet
solo with a violin obligato was ren
dered by Mrs. M. S. Moore and Miss
Clarleta DeMars. Miss Frances Gage,
northwest secretary of the Y. W. C.
A., talked on "Many Girls in Many
Lands."
ISacred concerts were given at 4
and 7:15 o'clock Sunday by the Che
mawa Indian School Band, and Dr.
John Roach Straton, of Chicago,
preached the sermon. Dr. Straton Is
a scholarly speaker, a young man of
fine appearance and splendid elo
quence. "The Conquest of the Desert," was
the subject of a most Interesting talk
Monday morning by Miss Wilhelmlna
Joehnke at the Chautauqua Forum.
Miss Joehnke is a graduate of the
University of Chicago, and lecturer to
the public schools of New York. She
has talked from New Hampshire to
Pennsylvania on Irrigation and Immi
gration. Many of her lectures have
been delivered to the worklngmen's
colleges of the Eastern cities, under
the auspices of the local school
boards. Dr. Owens Adair, the pioneer
women's physician of Oregon, gave in
teresting reminiscences of 40 years

The Reason
constant effort is to give not "just as good" but
the best work and that, for as little money as
possible.
Our recent trip east to the great center of den
tal education, was for the purpose of giving you
the latest and best up-to-date dentistry. Our 17
years of succssful practice in Oregon City is the
best guarantee any dentist can give you. A guar
antee is good only as long as you can find the one
who gives it, and then not always. We are care
ful not to hurt you, as we have feelings ourselves.
We want your work and want you to send us your
friends. Have an eastern expert graduate assist
ant dentist. We put our name back of our prac
tice. Our prices are the lowest in the city for
good work.
