gamblers and the "police system."

piro had revealed. Mr. Levy said he
and Mr. Whitman had agreed tt give
out no further information. Not long

a two-hour conference with his clients
and made a brief statement regard
ing it.

which will make the public gasp when
they are published."
THOUSANDS WILL
HEAR MITCHELL
(Continued from page 1)
I who had never read Shakespeare's
. masterpiece got real enjoyment out
of Professor Bassett's reading.
Dr. William House gave an interest
ing talk in the afternoon to the adults
on the subject, "Social Hygiene." His
interesing address was attended by an
unusually large audience for the Chau
tauqua five-o'clock hour. In the audi
torium at this hour, Rev. Mr. Clapp
spoke on Women Suffrage and Mrs.
Hidden took occasion to answer the
arguments of Dr. True Wilson of Port
land, delivered before the women at
their suffrage session last Tuesday
afternoon.
"John Mitchell' is the name that is
on everyone's lips today, for the fam
ous labor leader will address a mon
ster crowd in the auditorium this aft
ernoon at 2 o'clock, and the announce
ment of Mr. Mitchell's coming has
created a widespread interest in his
message, not only with the campers
on the grounds but with hundreds of
Portland workinmen, who will take ad
vantage of their half holiday today to
hear their champion at the park. His
subject is to be "The Philosophy, Pur
poses and Ideals of the Trades Union
Movement," Mr. Mitchell using in the
main, his subject matter from his
book of the same title.
This will be the banner day of the
1912 session. Besides the big attrac
tion Mr. Mitchell the evening will
be given over to the grand Chautauqua
concert, by Professor Chapman's or
chestra, assisted by Pauline Miller
Chapman, mezzo-soprano; Ross Far
go, tenor; Mr. Francis Waker, bari
tone; Mr. Aue, 'cellist. Preceding the
concert, a grand pyrotechnic display
an annual feature for the Chautauqua
patrons, will be given down on the
baseball field below the auditorium.
Professor Keiling will have personal
direction of the display, using his own
"made-in-Oregon" fireworks. Eighteen
magnificent pieces will be set off, in
addition to hundreds of rockets, Rom
an candles, etc.
The forum hour today is to be of
unusual interest, being in charge of
the Consumers' League of Oregon, of
which Mrs. Henry Russel Talbot is
president. The principal speaker of
this session is to be Dr. C. H. Chap
man, editor of the Oregonian, who will
address the morning audience bn the
subject, "Can Women Live on. the
Wages They Earn." This is the final
