Elaborate Programme at Tnylor-

"Worship Other Service.
"SuSer little children to come unto me"
was the message exemp.lfitd at the Sun
day morning serv.ce in Taylor-Street
Methodist Episcopal Church. The floral
decorations were augmented by cages of
song birds, which merrliy warbled
throughout the service, giving the tone
of forest and grove to "The Story of the
Flowers." which was the programme pre.
cented by the Sunday school. Each de- (
partment of the Sunday school took a
part during e morning hour, the cradle
class, recently added to the school, be.ng
represented by the baptism of several In
fants. Dr. Kellogg explained the origin of the
day, which was a thought of the late
Bishop Simpson, and which has developed
into" a vast educational triumph, by means?
of which thousands of worthy young men
and women have been educated from the
funds contributed at these cervices. The

of the Infant class told the story of their
work In song or verse, the character they
represented being indicated by drees or

by little Edith Olds, little girls repr.s-nt-Ing

sunbeam made the old church bright with
a gleam of light, and hsppy voices, sm 1

moments pass swiftly away. Miss Da
Taylor sang with great sweetness the
message assigned to her. and the final
harmony of the vtory was sung by Mls

This programme was under the d"rcct!on
of Mrs. C. N. Rankin, principal of the

PRAISE FOR TnE PIONEER.
Rev. Mr. Texnplcton SpeaU on the
Mffrrntlona of Peoplrn.
"Relations of Home and th- Church"
was the subject chosen yesterday by Re-
H. S. Tcmpleton, as "an oci
Blon to pay a tribute to the plotters who
meet In Portland this wek. Rv. Mr.
Templeton Is acting pastor of "Westmin
ster Presbyterian Church on the East
Bide, and his sermon yesterday, being one
of the few yet delivered In Portland, ex
cited more than passlrg Intcrrst. He raid:
"God determined upon the plan of a sp
arate people. The separation to begin
with was geographical. Abraham could
not dwell in the land of his fathers, and
be the head of the new nation. .He must
migrate to a new land which God would
show him. Abraham was the first pil
grim. He left his Chaldean home, for
conscience's sake. Like the Puritans, who
were called pilgrims because they wan
dered about, so Abraham went Into vol
untary exile. John Robinson, the fithT
of the Puritan movement, was the Abra
ham of modem times.
"Abraham was alo the first pioneer. A
pilgrim is prompted by conscience: a p'o
neer by conquest.' or gain, or the hope or
home In a new land. Abraham waned
new pasture for hl flocks, as wMl as a
place to build an altar to his God. So
with the Puritans. Thry became pilgrims
for the soke of their worship. Then they
became pioneers for th akc of their
homes. They gave free Issue to the two
wellsprlngs of everv human heart, which
are love and religion love building the
home, and rellclon building the church
"Abraham staked clown his tent ani
then constructed an altar out of the stones
near by. Caesar and Napoeon. by their
military roads, and Alexander the Great
by his military camps, but followed the
journey of Abraham by the aitar he
built. The tent and the altar the home
and the house of God these are the two
pillars of civilization. The furthest
church spire toward the wlidrncvs ha
ever been the outpost of law and ordet.
Non-Chrlstlan men often aid in church
building simply as a matter of business
It Is a worthy tribute to the role of the
church in human society.
"These altars served a double purpose.
They were a safegtnrd to Abraham's
household. Sarah could go out there wl h
Isaac and wor.hlp God. They were an
object-lesson unto the Canaar.ltes among
whom Abraham dwe't.
"Just now we are approaching Pioneer
day. The patriarchs of our state w'l!
meet In our city this coming week. "We
have one word for thee gr.-.y hairs that

a noble race of homebui'dcrsi The pio
neer had two thoughts when he came Into
this Western land, and he found a greater
wilderness than Abraham found In Ca
naan. His first concern was a shelter for
some Sarah and her children. Then h
built a church whose steeple pointed him
to his God. and whese bell announced the
Sabbath day and the Sabbath worship.
"We worship today In the churches built
by ur fathers. Churchbujlding was thelr
most substantial work. Many pioneers
homes are now In ruins, but the churches
they founded will outlive lumber or stone.
They are the true monument to the mem
ory of that sturdy race whose sons and
daughters we are.
"Abraham had one son. It Is Instruct
ing to note that Isaac kept aglow the

"SCOPE OF SALVATIOX."
Sermon h- Rev. Mr. Brcclc, Xevr Rec
tor of Good Shepherd Cbarch.
The congregation of Good Shepherd
Church. In Upper Albino, yesterday morn
ing had the pleasure of heanng the open
ing sermon of Rev. TV. A. M. Breck, the
new rector, just called there. Since the
retirement of Rev. Mr. Barbour several
monthf ago the church had been without
a regular pastor, and Mr. Breck, who has
b.en rector of St. Luke's Church, San
Francisco, accepted the call of Good Shep
herd.
The new rector spoke briefly, but with
great force and directness on the "Scoe
of fcalvatlon," a subject appropriate to
the communion. His text was from the
words of St. aul, "God so loved the world
that he gave h.s onlj begotten con." .ie
p-trpose of the discourse was to show the
sweep and scope of salvation, and that
Christ came within reach of all class's,
and no particular class. Mr. Breck said
that there was some criticism because
missionaries are sent to heathen lands
when there are so many unconverted peo
ple at home, but It had been the policy
of Chlrst to do this very th ng.
"Jesus did not terry," said the rector,
"at Jerusalem becaup there were uncon-
I verted people there, but he went out in
the bv-wavs and taucfrt all classes

Mr. Breck closed his discourse with an
appeal to all to appreciate In full the
meaning of the text and the universality
oi salvation. At the conclusion of the
morning services the members of the
church were Introduced to the new rec

"COMIN' THROUGH THE RYE"
Proof That

PORTLAND. June 10. (To the Editor.)
A correspondent who signs himself X,
In noticing a paragraph published In The
Oregonlan a short time ago In regaid
to a field of unusually tall rye. takes ex
ception to the statement that lads and
lacsca would be likely to experience d f
flculty 'n coming through that patch of
rye. He states tb-it when Burns wrote
"Coming Through t Rye" he did not re
fer to a field cf standing grain, but lo
crossing or "comln: thiough" the River
Ry on stepping stones.
This shows how eay t Is to be mistaken,
for the great majnt of people who

supposed that he referred to a

which tend to this belief. It Is a common
thing In the countrv to see paths through
grain fields, affording a short cut rc

urally are narrow, and people using them
avoid stepping out of them eo as nt 'o

RIGHTS OF A PEDESTRIAN.
ne "Wonld Better Jfot Assert Them
on n Bicycle Path. j
PORTLAND, June 10. (To the Editor.)
Please Inform mo whether pedestrians
have a right to travel on bicycle paths
within the city limits and In the country
around Portland. PEDESTRIAN.
This is a difficult question to answer, as
conditions vary so greatly In connection
with bicycle paths. It wou'd seem that
where such paths are built alongside of
streets, or county roads, where there
were paths which have long been used by
pedestrians, people would have a right to
walk on them, but as such paths are paid ,
tor witn monev naia in dv Dieveiists. n i
is scarcely probable that pedestrians have
any right to use them where they run
through private property, as some of them
do.
It would, however, be necessary to coa-
test the matter in all the courts in the cr,,des of Un roadway? Dozen of ve

It Is not even safe or advisable for one
to be too tenacious in regard to his right
to walk on the sidewalks In ttie city lx
months out of the year. Of co'urse, In this
case, there can be n6 dispute about i
man's right to travel unmol'stedon the
sidewalks, as they were built for that
purpose and the bicyclists did not build
them, and only paid a small percentage
of their cost, but unless one is on the
alert, and prepared to spring into the
street, when any bicyclist rings for him
to jump, it Is not safe lor him to exercise
his rights. On the whole, It will be bst
for Pedestrian to keep off bicycle paths
until his right to walk on them has been
established by law, and he Is prepared to
go armed with his Gatilng guns trained
to the front and the rcur.

A woman prominent In all benevolent

a few dajs ago from a visit to a town In

on the streets. She Insisted that some
way should be found to keep the streets
clean. There Is much cause for complaint
of this kind at present, largely owing
to the number of excavations being made
In the bua'.ntns center of town for build

No city in the Union r-ermlte laggards at
the theater, and delays the raising of the
curtain to suit them, as does Portland.
Generally, the whole frst act of a line play
is almost entirely lost to kei-n lovers of
the drama by the carelessness and selfish
ness of those who come late. Many arrive
so late as 9:3), and they take no pains to
walk quietly, and are In no way abashed
at their misbehavior. The ushers add their
quota to the general discomfort by bring
ing In the late ones with as much noise
as possible, and exhibiting fiendish delight
in slamming down the seats with more
noise than usual.
DIRTY ' Wh,le on the subject of theatrical mis
" j behavior, let us mention the programme
nuisance. hy Is It people cannot reaa
the cast of characters and the synops:s
of the first act and then settle themselves
to enjoy it. l'aving anything they do not
understand to be learned from their pro
gramme between acts? The moment a
character comes on the stage, some
thoughtless and senseless beings seize
their programme and rattle them like a
shower of Tain, spending minutes looking
up the name of some character, heedless
of the fact that they are not onlv annoy
ing the more will-bred, but are also, while
their noses are burled in their programmes,
losing much beautiful action and speech
of the play. Some gc to fax as to explain
the play to their neighbors. Then ihere
Is the woman wha makes audible com
ments on the dresses of the actresses.
"What fate should be hers?
Mr. Mead did us an Immense service
when he compelled women to take off the'r
hats. (Alas, that women should have made
the law necessary.) Now, will Mr. Mead
come to our rrscue and see that they
do- not put them on too soon?
"When "Camlllc" was played here recent
ly, the .tvho.e pathetic ending of the last
act was ruined by ill-mannered women
putting on their colossal millinery abomi-
, nations while Camille was expiring. A
. friend of mine, sitting behind one of these
women, who was Just about to place a
f three-foot structure on her head, raised
', her hand, stayed Its progress and said,
i "I desire to see the whole of this beautiful

EFFECT OF DUTY ON TEA
REVENUE COLLECTIONS OF NEAR
LY ? 11,000,000 UNDER THE LAW.
The Figures of Entry for Consump
tion by Quarters The General
Movement of Imports.
The volume of entries of tea for can
sumption during the last two quarters Indicates-
that the duty of 10 cents per
pound has not apparently had a serious
effect in restricting consumption, and that
It has yielded a considerable amountof
revenue to the Treasury, says a "Wash
ington special to the New Tork Journal
of Commerce. There was an effort dur
ing the first two quarters under the new
duty to restrict withdrawals of tea from
warehouse for consumption to the hand-to-mouth
policy In the e;Idcnt hope that
the war duty would soon be rcpal;d.
After It was made clear by the policy of
Congress and the declarations of t o
Treasury officials set forth in these dis
patches, that the duty would not bj re
pealed for some time to come, the entries
fpr consumption ro e to about the o d
level of importations. This was pattly
the effect of exhaus ion of the supplies
In Txarehouse when the duty took effect,
but was also due to the risumptlon of
regular purchases by retailers and jobbers
without the attempt to restrict purchases
to the minimum in ant'c'pat.on cf the,
abolition of the duty. Tne quarter end ng
with September last showed the largest
volume of entries for consumption a d ap
parently Indicated some replenishment of
stocks. The two later quarters, hewevsr,
have shown imports above rather than
below the average before the du'y was Im
posed and seem to indicate a normnf trade
movement. The details of the entries for
consumption have not been furnished in
the printed statements of the Bureau of
Statistics, but the figures by quarters,
with tho duties carried out at 10 cents per
pound are as follows:

The totals of the figures show that
about lCO.OOO.COO pounds of tea have bcn
entered for consumption since the duy
took effect in the Summer of ISIS, and
that duties have been paid coming close
up to $11,000,000. The light payments dur
ing the first two quarters under th; duty
are In striking contrast with the calendar
year 1S59, which showed duties paid of
about J7.2O0.0OO. This 13 an Item large
enough to attract considerable attention
in a European budget, and to ent.tle tea
to rank as a good revenue-producer.
"Whether the duty wllj be modifl-d by the
committees which have been authorized
to sit during the recess of Congress to
deal with the war revenue act is uncer
tain. It is not probable that the duty will
be entirely repealed In any event, since
It is regarded by some of ihe Treasury
officials as tending to encourage the im
portation of high-grade tea and to aid in
the enforcement of the adulteration act
of 1897. How far general Imports, which
are entered for warehousing where they
are not entered at once for consump;ion.
have kept ahead of entries for consump

President Tnlkn While He Shaves
Himself.
Washington letter in Chicago Tribune.
Undoubtedly the best paid barber in
the world is the man who shaves Presi
dent McKlnley. He Is paid J5O.O00 a year,
but his Job Is exclusive, and he ehavea
only the President. Many people who
look on the round, smooth face of the
President of the United States, who al
ways looks fresn as a rose, must have
wondered about his barber. The Presi
dent has a man come In for hair cutting,
shampooing- and similar attentions, but
when It comes to artistic shaving, the
President trusts no one but his faithful
barber for many years, "William Mc
Klnley. It has been frequently said by cynic
and manufacturers of barbers' chairs that
men take, their lives and their razors In
hand together. This Is scarcely true oi
the President. Not only does he shave
himself, but he does It with an expert
ness and nerve which makes the ordinary
man shudder to think of. The Presi
dent's face is remarkably regular in
contour, and In spite of his vast responsi
bilities is free from most of the fur
rows cares bring to other men. Mem
bers of the family are authority fcr the
statement that the President does not
need a mirror at all. He lathers hla
face and then proceeds to walk about
the room, talking, looking out of the
window, and only stopping to try the
razor on the shaving papers

"Mr. President," said Bishop Stevens, of
Philadelphia, at one of the sessions of the
General Council of the Reformed Episco
pal Church In Baltimore, a few days ago,
when the question of the use of tobacco
by the clergy was under discussion, "I
smoke, and I shall continue to smoke. I
don't believe the use of tobacco Is as bad
as It has been described; I believe It Is
all a piece of will-worship. God has ne-er
said anywhere that we shall not be min
isters of his gospel if we do use it. God
provided for every need In nature, and I
thank God for my cigar." Then the coun
cil voted to drop the tobacco question and
to proceed to other and more Important
business.

Member of Spokane Firm of Stoclc
Brokers A Canadian, aad Left
Faintly in Boston.
Yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock, tho
death of George K. Dean, a Spokane cap
italist, was. discovered at the Perkins
Hotel. His death, was sudden and Is at
tributed to paralysis of the heart. Mr.
Dean had been sleeping In h's room dur
ing the afternoon, and had crossed over
to the room of his friend Stuart Armour,
a Spokane lawyer, formerly of Portland,
who was also dozing. Mr. Armour heard
him when he entered the room, but again
went to sleep. A few minutes later a
friend calling at his apartments, discov
ered the body of Mr. Dean stretched at
length on the floor, having succumbed to
a sudden attack of heart failure. Death
had come painlessly and noiselessly, and
Mr. Armour, sleeping only a few feet
away, had not been disturbed by the falL
Mr. Dean had been subject to attacks of
rheumatism, to which Coroner Rand at
tributes the cause of the heart paralysis.
George K. Dean Is the son of Judge
Dean, of Lindsay. Ontario, and comes
from a very -prominent Canadian family.
He was a young man 35 years of age.
handsome and well-dressed, with dark
hair and sandy mustache. Among his
papers were found letters and cards show
ing his connection with Frank S. Tag
gart &. Co.. Spokane brokers, and tha
Red Jacket Distillery, of Buffalo. N. Y.
A photograph also was found of a pretty
stone residence. Indorsed on the back,
"Chateau Masson. Terrebonne. Quebec,
George K. Dean, owner."
F. W. Hopkins, of the firm of Down
ing. Hopkins & Co., a friend of the dead
man, when Informed of his death yester
day, said:
"I have known Mr. Dean since a boy.
and he comes of a very prominent family
In Canada. His father Is Judge Dean, of
Lindsay, Ontario. Mr. Dean was 35 years
old. and has a wife and two children In
Boston. His wife 13 the daughter of an
English Army officer. He has a brother-in-law.
Mr. Tate, connected with the Ed
ison Company, who is now on a visit in
San Francisco. Only recently he pur
chased an Interest in the F. S. Taggart
Company, of Spokane, and his trip to
Portland was in the interest of that firm
and also of the Eastern distillery, whose
whisky he was handling, being the owner
of several thousand of their certificates.
His means are ample, and he was consid
ered a capitalist. He always had pleuty
of money, though I cannot say how much
he was worth at" the present time. Only
yesterday we were out driving together,
and he seemed perfectly well, although
he did tell me he was subject to rheu
matic attacks."
Chief Clerk Thompson, of the Perkins
Hotel, stated "that Mr. Dan had regis
tered from Spokane on the 5th. When the
death was discovered, he immediately In
formed Coroner Rand, and the body was
removed to the morgue without causing"
any commotion In the hotel. In the opin
ion of Coroner Rand, the death, took place
about 3:30 Stuart Armour, the friend of
Mr Dean. wa3 severely shocked at the
death In his room. "Why," he said.
"George had just stepped Jn the room a
few minutes, it seemed to me, before the
Coroner arrived and found him dead. I
had spent Saturday with him. and had
been with him this morning, and his sud
den death came without any previous
warning of any sort."
Judge Dean, in Ontario, was notified of
the death- by Mr. Hopkrns. and Frank
S. Taggart. in Spokane, by Coroner Rand.
The Inquest over the body will be held
this afternoon.
