GI.UiBTONE PAIIK. July 15 (Soe-
clali Tho Chicago Glee club poo-
ee the reputation of being the
greatest bunch of "repeaters," on the
lyceum platform tod:iy, and following
their concert at GladHtone park this
afternoon 2500 chautauqiians quickly
aw the reason. Their concert waa
one of the real hit of the assembly.
Notwithstanding the fact that O. T.
Henry, baritone; D. K. Tboma. econd
tenor; J. W. Turner, flrt tenor; and
C. If. Dixon, basso, gave their four
thouaandlh concert today with the
lame personnel which started from
Chicago 15 years ago, their vocics are
fresh and buoyant, and admirably well
manaRed.
J Planlaslmo Effect Well Sustained.
I he planlaslmo effcta ot the quar
tette were beautiful In qaulity and well
sustained, while in the handling of
the turner interval tho voices pro
duced an orxan effect extremely pleas-
iiik. A novelty or their Drocram wa
uieir iroinnone quartette, and the ren
illllon of the Pilgrim chorus from
Thnnhnuser, on these Intruraents, was
exquisitely done. The voice and tone
blending of the four waa as nearly per-
ieci aa anything ever heard at Glad
stone park.
Mrs. A. King Wilson presided at Ore
gon Congress of Mothers' headquarters
mis afternoon and a great assembly of
women heard Mrs. M. M. Chlttendon
speak. Another delightful feature of
the day was the reception clven at
University of Oregon headquarters, at
wnicn tnenas and alumni chatted and
partook of the conventional "tea and
wafers." Miss Mozelle Hair was In
charge of the affair.
Morning Class Pouiar. v
Seldom In chautnunua's hlBtorv have
so many of tho campers and patrons
evinced so much enthusiasm in thn
elocution work, which is a feature in
charge of Mrs. Mattle Hardwlckn
Jones or McMlnnvl e. Mrs. Jones'
class each morning in the auditorium
at 9 o clock Is one of the official Chau
tauqua centers, and the charming per
sonality of the instructor has added
greatly to the success of the elocu
tion study. One thing which Is plea-
nig too directors tuts year is the un.
usual Interest In the various lines of
research, which makes them feel that
tho real purpose of the Chautauqua
has not been overlooked In the cele
bration of the Chautauqua's 2 1st birth-
any.
Under the able leadership of Mrs.
John Rlsley, of Uisley station, with
Mrs. Joseph Pnidhomme, Mrs.
Earle Kronaugh, and Mrs. W. J.
Thatcher of Portland, nnd Mrs. Geo.
C. lirownell of Oregon City, as chief as
sistants, the Oregon State Congress of
Mothers is aiding materially In mak
ing Chautauqua history this year. Mrs.
midhomme is making a grent success
of the kindergarten, Mrs. Tooze and
Mrs. Hrownell are In charge of the
headquarters, while Mrs. Thatcher and
Mrs. Hronaiiph have been the Inspira
tion for a series of highly interesting
discussions which have been given
dally at 3 o'clock. Mrs. Rlsley and
Mrs Pnidhomme are tireless workers,
and their successful efforts for the
mothers' congress have attracted wide
attention.
All Partly Moral, Says Hlnson,
Today's program carried many In
structive gatherings. Dr. Hlnson spoke
before his usual large attentive audi
ence. "It Is not always the worst man
who commits the most open sin. We
are all of us moral In spots. I would
rather be a drunkard than a slanderer.
Hut when I look at Jesus and mesure
myself beside Him, I realize that I am
a terrible sinner."
Mr. I.. H. Weir spoke again today
on the playground movement, and
showed an Interesting series of pic
tures with his talk. Dr. Edna Eugenia
Lowe's health talk given this afternoon
at 5 o'clock, was on "Colds and Ca
tarrh."
Today Patriotic Day.
Thursday Is patriotic day and G. A.
R. men will throng the grounds as
guests of the Chautauqua. All old
soldiers wearing the little brown but
ton will be admitted free. - The famous
Oregon Drum corps will be on hand
and martial trains will be heard in the
park during the day. The big feature,
however, la Dr. Thomas E. Green, who
speaks at 2 o'clock on "The Burden of
tho Nations."
Macksburg won from Estacadaby
the score of 15 to 0, In a one-sided
slaughter. The batteries were: Macks
burg, Baker and Baker; Estacada,
Douglas and Kennedy.
Tho On-gon City public street mar
ket wa a success. This was the opin
ion of the farmers who brought In
irodiiro and sold It for a good price;
hi was the verdict of the happy
housewife who bought fr--eb, crlap, and
clean produce; and thla Is th." honest
on v let Ion of the hundred who
walked down Main at net merely to
' aca how II worked " Moreover. Iho
farmer, the hoiiaewlfe, and the spec- j
tutor each say that they will be back I
again next r rldar.
It la eatlmated that about 350 per
son vlalu-d the market Kriday morn
ing between the hours of t and 11
o'clock and bought produce from the
farmers. Between 20 and 30 farmer
wero present and every itaple article
waa Bold before the buyer left. The
first of the farmer arrived at the
market place between 7:30 and 8
o'clock, but Ita was 9 o'clock before ac
tive trading began. Ily 11 o'clock the
farmer had left.
The majority of the produce consist
ed of staple farm product, such a
berries, fruits and vegetable, but the
variety of article offend for aale wa
ono of the (urpriiet of the day. Sev
eral farmer brought In grape Juice,
one woman found a ready market for
a basket of sweet peas, strawberries,
though out of season, were well repre
sented in the wagons, and one man
said that he had intended to bring
crawfish and surely would bring some
next week. C. W. Paine, a fanner liv
ing on the Abcrnathy several miles
out of town, was the first farmer on
the grounds.
The success of the market from the
standpoint of the farmer Is well illus
trated by the experience of George De
llok, a well known grower of the Wil
lamette district Dcllok arrived on
Fifth street at 8 o'clock and at 9 o'clock
began to sell his goods. At 11 o'clock
be had sold out his load and waa pre
pared to go home.
"I received about 912 for my atuff."
said DeBok. "I only brought a small
wagon load and will bring much more
the next. I am certainly In favor of
the market and will come each week
with the best of the stuff I raise."
Many farmers came In town Friday
morning merely to see how the market
would work. One of these waa heard
to remark: "I Just came In to see If
this proposition was as represented. I
find that It la and I will bring In a wag
on load next week myself." I
All the stuff offered for sale was
fresh and clean, the best that the
county could produce. The chickens
were young, the berries freshly picked,
the fruit and vegetables recently gath
ered, and everything presented a clean
and fresh appearance.

COVERING TO BE BUILT! FOR RACKS
Addition Will Be Made to Protect
Gooda From Sun and Rain
Market May Be Held
v Two Daya a Week
Encouraged by the decided success
of the public street market, the Ore
gon City Board of Trade, which backed
the market plan, took the first steps
toward the organization of a stock
market at the regular weekly meeting
Monday night.
The stock market will probably be
held in connection with the street mar
ket as It is now organized. Farmers
will be Invited to bring In their stock,
pigs and sheep being included as well
as cattle for sale. Trade would not be
confined to deals between farmers and
butchers but between one farmer and
another as well.
The stock market would be held on
Fifth street near the corner of Main
street so that the municipal scale,
which is located on the southwest cor
ner of Fifth and Main streets, could be
used.
One member of the board said at the
close of the meeting Monday night
that it was thought that by extending
the market plan to include stock, the
raising of animals would be encour
aged in every port of the county and
no special part of the county would
have a monopoly on any kind of stock.
Another plan suggested at the meet
ing of the board was the extension of
the street market to Include two days
week, Tiwsday as well as Friday. The
plan was referred to the committee.
A removable covering will be built
over the racks on Fifth street so that
fruit and vegetables can be protected
from either the sun or the rain. The
need of this was demonstrated at the
first market day, Friday.
CLUB WILL FIGHT
FOR NEW CAR STOP
MILWAUKIE, Ore., July 15. The
local Commercial club will appeal to
the stato railroad commission In its
fight to force the cars of the Portland
Railway, Light & Power company to
stop at Washington street. Definite
action was taken at the meeting of the
club early in the week. The matter
was referred to the street "car company
some time ago but the request was re
fused, although the company offered to
stop Milwaukie local at Jefferson
street.
The cars formerly stopped both at
Jackson and at Jefferson streets, but
at present the only stop ia at Monroe
street. Property owners have con
structed a substantial sidewalk at
Washington street.
The club's railroad committee will
meet in a few days with Stephen Car
ver to discuss before action is taken
upon it by the city council, his appli
cation for a street railway franchise
rrom the east end of Washington
street to Shindler street, and north on
Shindler to the Milwaukie boundary.

ficient work, Supervisors Hunt and

Girl' Testimony Important.
District Attorney Hedre. bajwd
RE- bla case on the testimony of Eater tiib-
son. Joiepblne Gerhart and Marlnn
loffman, who are alleged to have vl-
d the club May 17. The complaint
barged that Marian Hoffman, a mi
nor, secured liquor at the Friars' club
between 1:30 and 4 o'clock on the
morning of Sunday, May 17. John
Ditchburn. attorney for the defense.
attempted to prove that lhe thro girls
were not In the club that night and
Introduced two waiters and several
ortland men. Including Dr. J. O. Nib-
ley and Dr. Long, who testified that
they did not see the three girls In the
place.
Night's Adventure Told.
The adventures of the nlKht of May
16 were brought out In the trial. Ac
cording to the story which each of the
girla told, they "picked up" the three
men. who are .lot known to the local
authorities, and who bad not been
seen previously by the girls, early In
the evening on the streets of Portland.
The girls suggested that they go to an
ice cream parlor and eat Ice crenm.
After they bad been together a short
me. one of the girls suggested that
they go to the Republic grill and "have
good time." The party stayed at the
grill until closing hours when a taxi
cab waa secured and the six went to
the Friars' club.
This far In the testimony there was
no dispute. The defendants claimed
that the girls and their escorts were
denied admittance because they were
drunk and because the men were not
members of the club. The girls testi
fied that they were admitted to the
club about l:3i) o'clock In the morning
and that they stayed there until about
4 o'clock when Dr. Long and several
others took them home, their original
escorts having deserted them.
Admission Refused, Say Defendant.
The defendants attempted to prove
that the party had come to the club
and asked for admission, but were re
fused. W. Wilbur said that they re
turned later in the night and asalu
asked to be admitted and stayed out
side of the club for some time.
Many of the alleged methods of the
club were aired by District Attorney
Hedges. The defense claimed that
the club had a membership of 800 and
that no person was admitted into the
grounds unless he could show a card.
Attorney Hedges Introduced witnesses
to prove that "a stranger could be
come a member of the club in five
minutes," and thnt all was necessary
to become a member was the dollar in
itiation fee. The recommendation of
two other members, which was de
clared necessary for admission into
membership, was denouueed a farce.
Methods of Club Shown.
Attorney Hedges also attempted to
prove that the club had agreements
with taxicab companies to bring part
ies to the club. The statement was
made several times by Attorney Hed
ges In his address to the Jury that the
club secured the patronage ot those
who had been sent from Portland -grills
after midnight and that the prin
cipal tlma for business was in the
early morning hours.
Attorney Ditchburn for the defense
attempted to defame the character of
tho three girls who formed the leading
witnesses for the state. He described
their life In Portlnnd and declared that
they were "common prostitutes." Their
motive for testifying as they did Tues
day was, he said, to secure the pity and
forgiveness of their parents.
Girls Stand Trial Well.
The three girls naturally played an
Important part in the day's proceed
ings. Each one took the stand and
the Gibson and Gerhart girls testified
several times. The only one to break
down in the trial was Miss Hoffman,
the girl named in the complaint. The
three sat back in the court room silent
spectators of the trial for the greater
part or the day.
District Attorney Hedges declared
In his address to the Jury that "no
such a place as the Friars' club could
exist In Clackamas county while I am
district attorney." His talks to the
Jury were short and to the point while
Attorney Ditchburn spent almost an
hour In his address.

Mrs. Bessie Virginia Ames filed a suit
for divorce against Winifred Ray
Ames In the circuit court Wednesday.

lard hospital to undergo an operation,
and that upon her return to her home,

her maiden nawie. Resale Virginia
Thornton, be re itored to her.
