Mcnsipnore Martlnelll. Papal delegate
to the United States, and his secretary,
Df. Rooker, arrived In Portland on the
steamer Reliance, from The Dalles, at 1
o'clock last night.
They were met at The Dalles by a com
mittee from Portland, composed of dele
gatei from Catholic societies and church
dignitaries. The committee included Rev.

W. Burke. Mark O'Nelil. John F. O'Shea,
, Dresser, R. M. Dooly, Joseph Jacob
bcrger, J. P. O'Brien, John M. Gearln and
Kenry E. McGinn.
The trip from The Dalles was a very
delightful one to Dr. Martlnelll. He -said
that in all his travels he had never wit
nessed such beautiful scenery as that
along the Columbia River. As the Reli
ance passed Vancouver, a salute was
fired from the barracks in honor of the
distinguished prelate.
On the arrival at Portland the party
was welcomed by a large number of par
ishioners, and icveral Catholic Societies,
including the Catholic Order of Foresters,
Catholic Knights of America and St. Jo
seph's German Catholic Society. The
party v,at then driven up to Archbishop
Christie's residence, escorted by the so
cieties. The carriage containing Monslg
nore Martlnelll was drawn by four white
horses.
After a few minutes' rest and prepara
tion, a procession was formed from the
Archbishop's house to the Cathedral. It
consisted of the Catholic societies, aco
lytes and the clergy. At the Cathedral,
which was crowded to the utmost, there
was a short. Impressive ceremony, at
which Dr. Martlnelll officiated, assisted
by Fathers Hughes and Prizybylski and
a number of other priests. The ceremony
ended with the benediction given by Dr.
Martlnelll.
Nothing of Importance will bz done to
day, as the Monslgnore will want to rest
from the fatigue of hLi journey. The be
stowal of the pallium on Archbishop
Christie will take place Thursday morning
at 10 o'clock, at St. Mary's Cathedral.

HEAD OF NAVAL RESERVE
CAPT. R. E. DAVIS ACCEPTS OFFICE
OF LIEUT.-C03ISIANDEIU
HI Services In the Oregon National
Guard and "Wltlx the Fighting
Second Oregon. -
Commissions were Issued yesterday to
all officers recently elected. In the Third
and Fourth Regiments and the Separate
Battalion, also to Captain R. E. Davis,
as lieutenant-commander of the 0;gon
Battalion Naval Reserve. The officers
will receive them Immediately, and as
sume their duties. The members o the J
Third Regiment will be at their posts
today or tomorrow at the outside, and
Colonel Everett will commence work by
OTTrv1f'TrOMf nf Vile erflff
Captain R. E. Davis has been prevailed
upon to accept the office of Lieutenant;
Commander, to which he was elected by
the line officers of the Naval Battalion
some time ago. At first he declined, as
he had never been educated In the details
of nautical affairs, his experience on the
water being confined to two trips across
the Pacific In Army transports. The of
ficers of the battalion represented to the
captain that the principal duties he would
be expected, to perform were In perfect
ing the three divisions In the regular
military maneuvers, such as they would
be expected to perform on a landing ex
pedition. The drills for this work are
the same as the military work of the
Army, In which Captain Davis has long
been experienced. As company command,
er he was an old member of the Guard,
and then was captain of CompanyE, Sec
ond Oregon, during the Spanish War and
Filipino Insurrection. Thus he Is eminently
qualified to command a battalion in all
land movements, Including the use of
the field pieces that go as part of the
Naval Militia work. It was this experi
ence with troops that Impelled the of
ficers of the Reserve to choose Captain
Davis. For the greater part of the year
they will work on land entirely, and when
a crujse is taken the Naval Militia will
be under the Immediate control and di
rection of Naval officers who are thor
oughly skilled In nautical affairs. Thcs
cruises are as much for the Instruction
of officers as men. and Captain Davis will
have opportunity to qualify himself to the !
standard of Naval Militia officers.
Captain Davis is one of the old-time
members of the National Guard. He com.
manded a company In the First Regiment.
O. N. G., years before the outbreak of the
Spanish War, and for a period Immedi
ately prececdlng that event was out of
the Guard. He was elected to the com- J
raand of Company K 6ome time before
war was declared, and when the com
panies of the state were consolidated he
was given the captaincy In Company E.
He held this position all the time that
the Second Oregon was In the service,
and was mustered out at the Presidio
with his company. In Xiuzon Captain Da
vis and his company took part In nearly
all the flfhtlnjr to the credit it the'gec-

an officer, therefore, comes the additional
qualities of having been tried under fire
often. All of his friends expect that he
will take hold of the Naval Militia with

HOME ON A FURLOUGH.
CommlHsary icrgennt Dillon. "Vlslt
lns Friend In Portland.
Charles I. Dillon, the popular commis
sary sergeant of the Second Oregon Vol
unteers, is in-Portland for a shjrt stay.
Mr. Dillon did not return to the state
with the regiment, as he was given a very
desirable position In the sales depart
ment of the big transport Logan Immedi
ately after being mustered out at the
Presidio. Since then he has been on the
Logan each of her many trips to and
from the Philippines. At present he is
off on a furlough of two weeke, and Is
utilizing -most oT the time visiting his
many friends In Portland.
For several years Mr. Dillon was Iden
tified with the amateur efforts of the
Multnomah Amateur Athletic Club, of
Portland. In the club he has a host of
friends. Many of the members of the
Second Oregon will remember the dialect
sontjs, lively music and comic recitations
with which he was wont to make the
raincr gloomy days on the ocean and In
Luzon brighter for the soldiers.
Mr. Dillon was one of the Stanford stu
"dents who left that Institution to enlist
as a soldier at the outbreak of the Span
ish War. True to his old state, he did
not enter the California regiment, but
cast his lot with the Second Oregon.
where he was warmly welcomed. At San
Francisco and Honolulu the popular com.
mlssary sergeant was always the center
of attraction, where he had as many
friends as at home.

PORTLAND S3IELTER.
Chamber of Commerce Has Salem's
Co-Operatlon In the Matter of
an Open River.
At a regular meeting of the trustees of
the Chamber of Commerce, held yesterday,
a rather surprising communication was
received from Shanghai, China, bearing
on the establishment of a smelter In Port
land, wnlch reflects some of the remote
results that might follow such an Institu
tion, that are not now even contemplated.
This letter was written by Louis Spetzel,
and Is as follows:
Shanghai, April -L I notice In The Week
ly Orogonlan. Issue February 16, the pro
posed establishment of a smelter at Port
land. If you will kindly refer this com
munication to Mr. Bradford, or whoever
may have charge, I believe I can put
In his way various ores from, this coun
try that would be protttable to the com
pany. The mining industry in this coun
try is now developing, and such ores as
galena, antimony, copper, and zinc, are
Dmg snipped to Jiurope ior disposal,
whereas it seems to me Portland would
be the cheapest In expenses to ship to.
It was referred by the trustees to L. B.
Cox, who is known to be in close touch
with E. T. Bradford, In promoting the
smelter.
Alaskan ores had been counted on when
the smelter proposition was first 'consid
ered, hut' there was none who suspected
it would be possible to draw business from
the distant Orient, and Tvlth It advantages
to return commerce.
Salem Co-Operates.
All the trustees were put In excellent
spirits by the letter received" from H. R.
Thielsen, secretary of the Salem Cham
ber of Commerce, In response to the com
munclation sent that body by the commit
tee recently appointed by the Portland
Chamber of Commerce to promote work
of opening the Columbia as far as Lewis
ton to navigation. The letter reads:
I beg to acknowledge the receipt of your
communication of May S, enclosing a copy
of the report of your committee on organ
ization for active effort, looking to the
opening of tho Columbia River at The
Dalles.
I am Instructed to say that the Salem
Chamber of Commerce will heartily co
operate with you in the effort to accom
plish this as well as any other goodst.hlng
for the general good.
They are the more Inclined to assist In
this case, as they know from actual ex
perience what a serious injury is wrought
upon commerce where obstructions pre
vent otherwise navigable streams from
bemg a controlling factor in the establish
ment of freight rates.
In the very able report of your commit
tee, every argument looking to the open
ing of the Columbia Is equally applicable
to the opening of the Willamette by Gov
ernmental acquisition of the canal and
locks at Oregon City, or as an alterna
tive the construction of new ones,as rec
ommended in a recent report of a board of
Government engineers, appointed to ex
amine into that question.
Portland Is equally Interested in the
opening of both rivers, and we hojje that
the Portland Chamber of Commerce and
the people of the Columbia basin will ex
tend the same cordial assistance to secure
the opening of the Willamette River, that
the Salem Chamber of Commerce and the
people of the Willamette Valley will give
to the effort to make the Columbia River
free from Lewlston to the sea.
With such hearty assurances of co
operation from the Valley, the possibili
ties of accomplishing the desired end of
opening the Columbia at the dalles seemed
nearer than before, and will encourage
the Chamber of Commerce to proceed
more vigorously than ever. ,
In response to an Inquiry sent to the
secretary of the Astoria Chamber at Com
merce, a letter was received giving the
present status of the quarantine station
at the mouth of the Columbia. A clipping
from the Astorlan, recently published, ex
plained that probably within SO days the
station would be re"idy for use.
Emergency Appropriation.
A dispatch from Senator McBrlde con
veyed to the chamber the Information
outlined In the Washington dispatch of
yesterday's Oregonian concerning the
amendment appropriating $250 000 for work
at the mouth of the Columbia. The Sena
tor's telegram was. as follows:
Washington, May 14. I obtained today
from the committee on commerce favor
able report on my amendment appropri
ating $150,000 for repair and extension of
Jetty at the mouth of the Columbia, and
referred same to committee on appropri
ations for sundry civil bill. We shall
have hearing before subcommittee on ap
propriations In a day or two. Our com

Again the Isthmian Canal was brought
before the chamber. In a set of resolutions
from the Chamber of Commerce of San
Diego, Cal. These had been passzd by
that body In view of the probable non
action of Congress this session on the
canal, and were intended to stimulate the
various Western state delegations to strive
to their utmost to defeat any such dilatory
methods. The resolutions, which were
as follows, were referred to the Isthmian
Canal committee for consideration:

canal connecting the waters of the Atlan

A GOOD COMPLEXION
Depends on Good Digestion.
This la almost an axiom, although usu
ally we are apt to think that cosmetics,
face powders, lotions, fancy soaps, etc.,
are the secrets for securing a clear com
plexion. But all these are simply super
ficial aestetants.
It Is Impossible to have a good complex
ion unless the- digestive organs perform
their work properly, unless the stomach,
by properly digesting the food taken Into
It furnishes an abundance of pure blood,
a good complexion ie Impossible.
This Is the reason so many ladles are
using Stuart's Djspepria Tablets, because
they promptly cure any stomach trouble
and they have found out that perfect
digestion means a perfect complexion and
one that doee not require cosmetics and
powders to enhance its beauty.
Many ladles diet themselves or deny
themselves many articles of food solely
In order to keep their complexion clear.
When Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets are ueed
no ruch dieting Is necessary. Take these
tablets and eat all the good, wholesome
food you want, and you need have no
fear of Indigestion nor the sallow, dull
complexion which nine women out of 10
have, solely because they are suffering
from some form of Indigestion.
Bear in mind that beauty proceeds from
good health, good health results from per
fect digestion, and we have advanced the
best argument to Induce every man and
woman to give this splendid remedy a
trial.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets can be found
In drug etores, and costs but 50 cents per
package.
If there Is any derangement of the stom
ach or bowels they will remove It, and the
resultant effects are good digestion, goad
health and a clear, bright complexion.
