Irvins streets and will hold services in
It hereafter, beginning a week from Sun

steadily growing. The congregation now
lumbers about SO people, with a mem
bership of 03. It is In good financial
t:ond!tlon, and it is expected that It will
jrow rapidly In Its pretty new home.
where Poison Oak Thrives. Green
Mountain, away up at the head of Starve
DUt Creek, is a lovely place, at least in
the opinion of "W. "W. Espoy. who has
lately returned from that region. He
Just sufficiently recovered from a se
rious case of poison oak poisoning ln-
lurred there to be able to be out, and
Icuks like a new man. He bears the
ncuntaln no grudge on account of his
fiisrup, but the prettiest poison oak
plants he has ever seen exist there large
:.ough for shade trees, and poison Ivy
Uto nourishes remarkably there. The
preen Mountains are about 200 miles
Jth of Portland, and in a lovely region.
Cl-.e classic streams, known as Hosem,
Ijiave Creek and Starve-out Creek, have
thrlr rise In this beautiful region, and
here are also some rich mines there.
llr. Espey says poison oak doesn't do a
LUng to him but swell his head to the
bize of a balloon and close his eyes a
completely as possible, but ho enjoyed
ils trip all the same, and speaks In terms
L prcise of the Green Mountain region.
"Viewed a Fine Cocntrt. A. Hunter,
)f Sunnyside, Clackamas County, has Just
fc turned from a trip through the ex
treme northeastern part of Oregon and
southern Idaho, bringing with him a
-and of 17 fine Pcrchcron horses. Ha
purchased them from a horse-raiser at
Ontario, and drove them in by way of
h" Jolm Day country to Shaniko and
icr the old route by way of the Harlow
Lrall here. Ho was 10 days on the road.
hnd lost one horse from drinking too
luch alkali -water when overheated. He
found fine grass and. plenty of water on
he trip of 5&0 miles, and speaks In the
llghest terms of the country through
Ahich he passed, and says he never saw
.ncr crops than are growing there. The
:rip was the finest he ever took, and he
cannot imagine a more delightful Sum-
ler outing than a voyage through that
region on the hurricane deck of a good
?ause. The country he saw probably
looks better this season than usual.

"Unciuvalric Remarks. Two women
were riding their bicycles on the rice
walk on Third street yesterday morning
when something caused them to turn oft
Into the street. One of them, who had
auburn hair, remarked spitefully. "1
suppose we must ride In the mud: we
have to pay $1 25 license for riding in
the "mud." A- man who overheard the
Temnrk mentioned Incidentally that there
was one alternative left, but It was prob
ably too dreadful to be seriously enter
tained; that was, for her to stay at
home until the mud had dried up. His
Idea was that she would prefer playing
the part of a flying Juggernaut and pul
verise pedestrians than to confine herself
to attending to her household duties. An
other remarked that he would bet that
she had put the roast for the family
dinner In the stove and "banked" the fire,
and would get home Just in time to get
It half done for her husband's dinner. Of
course, these remarks were totally un
called for, and are impertinent and Irrel
evant. Schools Close Tuesdat. The examina
tions in the public schools were prac
tically ended yesterday, and everything la
connection therewith will be completed
and the pupils and teachers will be re
leased from duty at 10 A. M. Tuesday.
The number of pupils who, on account
of having made the requisite number of
points in their studies during the term
SG were excused from taking the exami
nation, amounted to about one-third or
the attendance. School Clerk Allen will
have the checks for paying teachers' sal
aries ready Tuesday afternoon, and the
Directors will as soon as possible elect
teachers for the coming year. As there
are only about a dozen vacancies to be
filled, this ordeal will be got through
with in short order, and then the teach
ers, with their certificates of election in
their pockets, will be ready to start on
their vacation trips with light hearts.
Drowned From a Steamer. The Bail
ey Gatzert yesterday morning brought
news of an accident to Rhclnhard Braak,
proprietor of the Arion saloon, who is
supposed to have jfallen overboard during
the night trip up the river and drowneo.
Brais-k boarded the Bailey Gatzert at
Humes at 8:40 P. M. Thursday evening
and went to bed soon after in his state
room. Yesterday morning the steward
noticed the outside door or Braak's room
on the hurricane deck open, the state
room unoccupied, and his hat, coat and
shoes on the floor. A search for the miss
ing man tais Instituted, but no trace
of him was found, and accidental drown
ing Is the only theory advanced to ex
plain his disappearance. Mr. Braak had
a wife and three children. His business
was profitable, and domestic relations
were happy.
Will Open Bids. Captain Sebree, light
house inspector of district No. 12. who Is
in charge of business in this district
during the absence of Inspector Day In
Alaska, will remain here until he haa
opened bids for getting lightship No. Ou
off the beach and for repairing lightship
No. 67 and changing her illumination,
when he will forward the bids to the de
partment at Washington. He will then
return to his station at San Francisco,
and the decision of the board in regard
to the award of the contracts will bo
forwarded to the office here, and opera
tions will be commenced. Captain Sebree
will "run up" from Elm Francisco once
in a while during Inspector Day's absence
to see how work Is progressing on the
contracts.
ndian Women Working. A constant
crowd of spectators blocked the Fifth
street sidewalk in front of the Meier &
Frank building yesterday to watch a
group of Siletz Indians in the act of
weaving baskets from nativo grasses,
which had been cured for the purpose.
As usual with Indians, the women did the
work, while the man of the group merely
sat near by and did nothing. The crow d
of civilized people were therefore given
an illustration of Indian gallantry. a
well as of squaw Industry. The Indian
women from time Immemorial have been
willing to do all the work, while the
male lords and masters have been per
fectly willing to He around and allow
thorn to do it.
Smallpox Case. Yesterday morning
Officer Welch, on duty at the Union de
pot, notified City Physician Wheeler or
the arrival of Ambrose Redmond on the
Northern Pacific train, who had the ap
pearance of being afillcted with small
pox. On examination. Dr. Wheeler found
that the man vnis in the third-day stage
of the disease, and had him removed im
mediately to the pesthouse. Redmond
came from Puget Sound a weeK ago. out
arrived In Portland after a few days
stay in Kalama. On the way here ho
rode In the smoking-car on the train, as
the onls passenger. No danger Is antic
ipated from contagion, as Dr. Wheeler
has taken every possible precaution.
Stole Knives and Razors. Steve Daw
son, of Taconn, was arrested yesterday
afternoon by Detective Ford for the lar
ceny of a sample-case of knives and ra
zors and other cutlery belonging to Sales
man Rastis, of the Honeyman-De Hart
Company. Rastis had left the sample
case, valued at $150, in the office of Fra
zler & McLean's livery stables, from
which it was stolen a Xew days ago by
Dawson, who was recently dlschargeo
from their employ. The case was recov
ered, but two dozen knives and a few
razors that Dawson sold around town are
missing.
Government Hat Contracts. Con
tracts have been awarded for some 2C5
tons of timothy hay of last year's crop
to be shipped to Manila on the transport

awarded a contract for supplying 100 tons
at 510 90 per ton, and the contract for the
remainder was awarded to J. Melkle at.
$13 90 per ton. A lot of oats will also
be shipped on the Lennox. If there is
fine weather for the present hay harvest,
Oregon will have hay enough to supply
all the United States Cavalry horses for
the next year or two.
At His Old Tricks. T. T. Roth, a 56-year-old
ex-convlct, two days out of the
State Penitentiary, was arrested last
evening by Detectives Ford and Barry
for passing worthless checks, precisely
the same offense for which he was sent
up before for one year's sentence. Roth
yesterday passed one check of $15 at
Wolfe's clothing store. First and Madi
son street, but it is not known how
many others he passed before detected
and arrested.

TWO FINE SCHOOLHOUSES.
Thompson and Holladny Buildings
Arc Models.
The citizens and children of the D. P.
Thompson and Holladay School distxlcta
are to be congratulated on bavins two of
the best school buildings in tbo city. The
Thompson School, being one of the last
bunt, and having all the latest and best
Improvements in the way of heating, ven
tilation and sanitation, is alleged to be a
little the best by Professor Jameson and
his corps of teachers, and they have also
cause to rejoice in having, through the
naming of the building, secured a patron
whose appreciation of this honor has al
ready been shown by the presentation of
a fine piano, and a carefully selected
library, which numbers over 300 volumes,
and has lately been Increased by the addi
tion of -the Encyclopedia Brittannica, and
other valuable books, until the spacious
book case provided is taxed beyond Jts
limits, and another will have to be pro
vided. No other school in the city haa
been similarly favored, but now that a
pattern has been set, others will probably
on receive similar benefactions.
The Thompson School Is Jocfced upon
by the Board of Directors as the high
water mark reached In school architect
ure in this city. It Is in the shape of un
H, the form which affords the best facili
ties for the pioper lighting of the rooms
and for a spacious assembly hall In the
connecting link.
The basement, which contains the recreation-rooms,
is roomy and well lighted
and has a fine cement floor throughout.
The classrooms arr well lighted and spa
cious, provided with ample blackboards,
which at present exhibit artistic drawings
of ferns, flowers, figures, etc. In colored
crayon.
The assembly hall has a celling of me
dium height, which renders the acoustic
properties perfect. It is decorated in
beautiful styles with flags, bunting, shields
and pictures, over the platform being an
oil painting of the patron, all of which
decorations are to remain permanently.
The six classrooms which were left un
finished when the school was opened are
to be finished during vacation to accom
modate the pupils from the Multnomah
School building, which is to be moved
over a mile down to Ockley Green. The
building, which st about $40,000. it is
said by experts, would be a much more
suitable building for the High School than
the much more costly building it now oc
cupies. The Holladay School building is almost
a facsimile of the Thompson School
building, and Professor Kiggins is per
fectly satisfied with it and can even point
out a feature or two in which It excels.
It will probably be some time beforo
.cither of them Is Improved upon.
HIS STYLE OF ADVERTISING
Unexpected Development of Ovid
Chiipnian "When Trade Got Dull.
New York Sun.
!The professional writer of advertise
ments," remarked a man In the adver
ting business, "knows more about his
trade than any one else does. But oc
casionally some rank outsider, from
whom it Is least to be expected, comes
out with a stray idea that Is worthy of
attention.
"I remember the case of an old man
named Ovid Chapman, who kept the gen
eral store in a sleepy little Massachu
setts village. He was not un educated
man, but he was clever, as Is proved by
the fact that be could; read his own hand
writing. One day he wandered Into the
office of the village weekly and asked to
see the business manager.
" 'Hey, you!' he said by way of greet
ing to that worthy, I want two inches of
space for two monthe. Things has been
droppin' off consid'rable in my line late
ly, an I'm goin to try advertlsln for a
spell.'
" 'Ahem! coughed the business man
ager, 'now Just what is your line of busi
ness, Mr. er Chapman?'
" 'Well, 1 Jest keep hardware, candy,
shoes, tooth brushes, baccy, shirts and
all sech things. But you needn't bother
about that; I've got my ad all writ up.'
and he took from his pocket a slip of
paper upon which was scrawled the fol
lowing: WE DON'T KEEP ANYTHING.
WE SELL EVERYTHING.
O. CHAPMAN,
Main Street.
"Some days later, when passing his
store, I was surprised to see this placard
hanging above the boots and thoes in his
window:
We are trying to sell our shoes not our
customers.
New ehoes sold.
Old shoes resoled.
" Yas, he said, coming to the door,
with a satisfied chuckle. 'I believe in ad
vertlsln. But it's like baked beans; it's
got to be well done to be any good. "
WHERE TO DINE.
Do away with that hungry, dissatisfied
feeling. Dine at the Portland restaurant,
S05 Washington, and be happy.

DETAILS TAKING SHAPE
PLANS MATURIXG 3POB BIG CEIiE
BRATIOX. Chinese "Will Take a Prominent Part
la the Grand Klgkt Parade
Children to Slag.
As the Fourth of July approaches, de
tails of the three days celebration in
Portland are rapidly taking shape. Last
evening's meeting of various committees
brought In carefully prepared reports as
to the amounts expended and the sources
from which the funds are expected. The
finance committee's showing was most
flattering, as the small deficiency in tho
fund will probably be fully made up by
next Monday evening's meeting. Most of
the promoters of this celebration ar
practical business men, to whom the
raising and disbursing of funds for cele
brations is nothing new.
The Chinese of Portland have come to
the front with commendable alacrity and
havo spontaneously agreed to make their
section In the night parade one long to
be remembered. There will be floats sym
bollo of Chinese history, religion, cus
toms, celebration of New Year by tho
well-to-do, processions of secret orders
and a display by the Chinese-Americans,
as well as a uniform exhibit by Chinese
students, leading Chinese merchants In
carriages, etc The Celestials of Portland
havo never taken a prominent part In
Independent Day celebrations, and their
efforts this year will be a" surprise and
a revelation to the Christian spectators
along the lmo of march.
All tho civic societies in the city will
take part in the parade, and each will
havo Its distinct float appropriate to tho
order, whose members will take part In
the parade. The military exhibit will be
enlivened by the presence of Infantry and
artillery from Vancouver, as well as mili
tia from Oregon City and Woodburn; the
streets, especially along the line of
march, are to be decorated with nine
triumphal arehes, and a variety of minor
embellishments.
Railroads and steamboat lines have all
shown their good will by a material re
duction In fares between July 2 and 6,
and several of the companies gave liberal
cash donations besides, according to the
committee on transportation.
Tho lino of march will probably be
made known at the meeting of the com
mittee to take place Monday evening at
8 o'clock, when the hall for holding the
literary exercises will also be decided on.
A rehearsal of school children will tako
place this afternoon at the high school,
and all those who are to participate In
tho concert are requested to bo on hand
at 3 o'clock.

EXPERTS
IN WOOD
Tonal Beauty of the
Stradivarius Violin
Utilized by
Modern Piano-Makers
A secret of the pre-eminent tone beauty
of the Stradivarius and Cremona violins
lies in the expert selection of the wood.
This Is equally true of the modern piano,
and In no part more necessarily than In'
the sounding board. In the Kimball pi
ano the sounding board Is made of the
best selected mountain spruce of firmer,
finer grain than any grown in lower alti
tudes. As a consequence they yield a
more powerful singing tone, the wood be
ing compressed in such a manner as to
obtain the tonal resonance of the rare
violin. Chicago Chronicle.

Eyes
not alike
113
Only about ono person In 10 has
eyes that are Just alike. Some
times one Is farstghted and the
other nearsighted. Sometimes, one
Is perfect and the other very de-
fectlve. Sometimes one Is Just a
little weaker than the other, some
times a great deal. Such eyes can
not be fitted with ready-made spec
tacles, for in all ready-made glasses
the lenses are of tho same power.
If you find a pair that seems to
fit you, it Is really helping only
the best eye. The eye which needs
help most is left to get worse. 1
fit each eye separately.
