Orboon Bihds in Fkeb Museum A
collection of Oregon bird skins has been
loaned to the Free Museum by RofS'lslch
olas, of Portland, a loan which will be of
especial value to children. For years
public-spirited men and women have dis
cussed means of providing a complete col
lection of Oregon birds for the lnstrjic ion
of children. The collection does not em
brace every member of the feathered
tribe indigenous to the state, but the va
riety is large and additions will be made.
Mr. Kicholas has written the following
explanation In connection with the ex
hibit: "Scientific bird skins for education
in ornithology. Do not say that these
birds are stuffed, or you will err, and do
not confound taxidermy with ornithology.
Taxidermy is merely an artistic mcchan
, Jcal operation; ornithology is a study
treating of the nature, habits, anatomy,
food, relations, economical value, etc, of
all bird life." Among the skins exhibited
are the goose or bran.t, fish duck, oyster
opener of the Paclflc Coast, mallard duck,
pair of widgeons, wood or Summer ducks,
snudhen or coot, pigeon hawk, quail,
meadow lark, rail, bluejays, a pair of
orioles, blackbirds, .flicker or yellow ham
mer, Lewis' woodpecker, Western evenfng
erossbeaks, night hawk or whlppoorwlll,
cedar bird or wax wing, Louisiana tana
ger, Oregon towhee or bunting, purple
martin, three swallows, "Western bluebird,
rusty song sparrow, goldfinches, slender
billed nuthatch, linnet, Audubon's war
bler, bush tit, golden-crowned kinglet and
a pair of vireos.
Soldiers to Indorse McKiNtsr.
Boom COO. sixth floor cf the Chamber of
Commerce, is the place that has been se
lected for the meeting of ex-soldiers
Monday evening. A larger hall was de
sired, out a suitable place was not found,
and it has been, decided to use this room.
All ex-soldiers, whether of the Mexican,
Civil, Indian. Spanish or Filipino War,
are asked to be present. In many East
ern districts soldiers have joined In con
demnation of a pojlcy that encourages
the enemies of the flag and country to
continue resistance. Soldiers know what
such encouragement means, better than
the ordinary person. And soldiers, bettar
than any others, learn the necessity of
obedience to Government in a crisis. It
Is for these reasons that soldiers have
been forming to give expression to their
sentiments in different parts of the coun
try. As Oregon had a. well-known regi
ment in the Philippines and has furnished
men for every war since Americans pos
sessed this part of the Continent, an ex
pression from Oregon soldiers has been
thought desirable.
DissATisriED Firemen. Members of
Volunteer Hose Company No. 5 are not
pleased with the sale of their house by
the Board of Public Works. The struc
ture was located in Fifth street, south of
Sheridan. That portion of the street is
practically unused, as it Is on the brink
of Marquam Gulch, where no roadway
crosses. Property-owners adjacent com
plained of the structure, and the "doard
of Public Works, being unable to locate
an owner, sold the house. Members of
the company learned of the sale and are
now protesting. Testerday thej' said they
would replevin It from the man who had
bought it from the board. The house was
erected at their own expense, they say,
Ave years ago. For a period a hose cart
was kept there which the company used
In. fighting Are near by. Of late the cart
has been removed and the house was
used as a sort of meeting place.
Bough Kider Ct,u3 Meeting. At .tht
meeting of the Bough Blder Marching
Club, to be held this evening in room COO,
Chamber of Commerce, arrangements wi 1
be made for a big mass meeting to be held
October IS, in Cordray's Theater. The
club has finished organization work, and
now numbers 500 members. A large num
ber of recruits are brought in at each
meeting, and in the near future double
the present membership is expected All
those who have not left their measure
ment for uniforms are requested to bo
present tills evening and do so. At the big
mass meeting on the 13th, all members
belonging to the marching division will
turn out in uniform. The meeting Is to
be a rally for Portland Bepubllcans. Sev
eral prominent sp'eakers will be booked
for the date, and other plans carried out
lor an enthusiastic gathering.
Drummers and Good Times. The large
number of drummers who have been so
journing at Portland hotels within the
past few weeks shows that business is
not very much affected by the Presiden
tial campaign. The knights of the grip
all seem to have plen.ty to do while in
the city, and local retailers call at the sam-ple-rooms
to pick out Spring goods just
as soon as the trunks are open and the
samples displayed. The number of big
trunks carried by the modern drummer
Js usually large, and It sometimes takes
a whole day to arrange the goods for the
Inspection of proposed customers. A
scarcity of convenient sample-rooms hag
marked the presen.t Influx of commercial
men, and they often have to tako turns
and wait for one another.
Fire on Third Street. Fire broke out
in the roof of the old Coliseum building,
on North Third street, last evening, a few
minutes before 8 o'clock, and an alarm
was turned In from box 142. The flames
were confined to the long ventilating
Bkyllght, and were extinguished by the
department without much damage. The
lower story Is used as a men's resort, un
der the auspices of the Presbyterian Mis
sion, and the upstairs portion as a kinder
garten. Bev. J. "E. Snyder was about to
open religious services in the auditorium
at the rear when the flames were discov
ered, but the place will now be closed for
repairs, for a few days. The property
belongs to Senator Joseph Simon. Mr.
Snyder thought the fire caught from an
electric wire.

Xjvinq jn a Moving House. A two-
story frame dwelling, containing; 13 rooms,
is slowly wending its way up Flanders
street to Seventh. It stood, for a number
of years, on the southeast corner of Sixth
and Couch streets, but the owners, W. J.
and D. B. Hawkins, concluded to erect a
business structure on the site, and so ar
ranged to move the dwelling to a new lo
cation on the west side of Seventh street,
near Gllsan. The family which has oc
cupied the building for the past Ave years
"has not deserted It now, but continues to
dwell in the .structure -as it moves along
the street. The tenants did intend
to vacate, but on looking about the city
for new quarters, found that all the hab
itable houses were occupied. They now
congratulate themselves on having a free
ride, while remaining in their house, a
luxury seldom enjoyed, even In this go
ahead age. The building Is being so care
fully moved that Its brick chimney, which
projects from the ridge po'.e, is thus far
free from cracks.

OFF FOR WALLA WALLA FAIR
Portland Business Men Fill Two
Pullman Cars.
Two Pullman carloads of prominent
Portland business men left over the O.
R. & N. last evening on the Chamber
of Commerce excursion, to the Walla
Walla Fruit Fair. At the Union Depot
before tho train pulled out, at 6 o'clock,
tho merry band of excursionists were
gathered, and many of the substantial
business firms of the city were represent
ed. The utmost enthusiasm and good
nature characterised the gathering, and
the members of the excursion looked for
ward to the three days freedom from
business cares with the keenest pleasure.
Every arrangement for the comfort of the
party had been made, and for the smok
ers the cars were well stocked with
cigars. Yesterday Assistant Secretary
Masten. of the Chamber of Commerce,
and E. Ehrman, of the committee of ar
rangements, found that prospects for the
excursion were growing brighter. One
Pullman car had already been filled, and
names were coming In for the second.
Most of the members who made the trip
to Pendleton during the street fair were
eager to be enrolled again, and it was
universally agreed that the results of
bringing buyers and sellers in closer
touch had been good. Arguments in fa
vor of the Walla Walla exoursion were
deemed squally valid.
Walla Walla's commercial relations
with Portland, Its Importance as a dis
tributing center in the Inland Empire,
Its standing as a grain point, were rec
ognized clearly as reasons why the trip
should prove profitable.
By special arrangement, the O. R. &
N. Co. allowed the excursion train to stop
20 minutes at Hood Blver, In order to give
the business men an opportunity to sea
tho horticultural exhibition on its open
ing night. Many of the party will stop
at Hood Blver on the return trip.

ANOTHER PIANO EPISODE.
Hoiv the Albany Roys "Worked Our
"Hy"-Priced Competitor The
Best Jo Ice of the Season.
A member of the Albany Alco Club, re
ferred to In yesterday's paper, came to
Portland a few weeks since and bought
a Sohmer piano that had been In con
stant use for 14 years. He paid us 5150
for it.
Now here's where the joke comes In.
Our "Hy"-prlced competitor goes to Al
bany, sees the piano, evidently likes It
and wants It. and the boys lot hlra have
it for almost double what it originally
cost them. Show us any make of piano
represented by our "Hy" -priced friertd
that has been in constant use for 14 years
that Is worth as much as he paid for this
"Sohmer" and we will scheme some way
or other to ret the agency for it.
In competition with the world the
"Baldwin. ' which we represent, took first
prize, the "Ludwlg" the second at the
World's Fair. Paris. Then we have tho
great "Knabe," the "brilliant "Bhrdman,"
the "Fischer'' and the "Steek," as well
as tho "Sohmer." All these are high
grade pianos. By the way. have you seen
the "Apollo." the new elf-playing piano?

IS A NEW CREED NEEDED?
PORTLAND PRESBYTERY WIIX DIS
CUSS THE aUESTION.'
General Assembly Asks Action anil
Submits 'Four Separate In- '
" -jiilrles.
The question of creed revision will be
one of the matters coming up at the
meeting of the Portland Presbytery next
week. Interest In this question of revis
ing tho Westminster confession of faitn
has become great since the General As
sembly of the Presbyterian church has
submitted four propositions relating to
the subject to each presbytery, with a
request for an expression of sentiment.
These propositions are: -
First Shall we have a new and shorter
creed?
Second-Shall we revise the confession
of faith?
Third Shall we have a short supple
mental statement?
Fourth Shall we do noth!ng7
The Portland Presbytery has never dis
cussed the question of creed revision, and
its position on this matter of church doc
trine has never been settled, although
tho -ministers of the various churches and
the members of the churches- have fol
lowed with Interest the debates in the
General Presbytery.. Monday morning tne
ministers of the City of Portland will
meet In the Forbes Presbyterian Church,
where the presbytery also meets, to con
sider whether the creed should be re
vised, and the proper -action to be taken
by the presbytery. Monday evening Bev.
A. A H'Td, of Fulton, the moderator of
the presbytery, will deliver his address.
Tuesday the creed-revision question will
be settled, and the rest of the time will
bo devoted to routine business, to tho ex
amination of the records of the different
churches, and to receiving tho annual re
ports of committees, one of the most im
portant of which will be that on "Homo
Missions," by Bey. E. P. Hill.
Following the meeting of the presby
tery, the annual meeting of the Presoy
terian Svnod of Oregon will be held at tne
First Presbyterian Church, from October
11 to October 15. No formal action will
be taken on the creed question by the
synod, and no discussion except in an
informal way. One of the Interesting re
ports to be presented to the synod will
be that of the special committee that ac
complished the raising of the Albany Col
lege debt.

EAST SIDE AFFAIRS.
Condition
of Charles
Smltn Other
IHatter.
' Charles Bmltb. soTof Contractor JJ. K.
Smith, of Sellwood, who was brought
from Bufus, east of The Dalles seriously
injured by a fall from a trestle, lhurs
day evening, remained in an unconscious
condition until yesterday evening when
there was evidence of returning conscious
ness. He had remained in that condition
since his fall Wednesday -afternoon at i
o'clock, but since he has been at at.
Vincent's Hospital he has shown somuch
energy that an attendant has been re
quired at his bedside constantly. Dr. Dav
Baffety, who Is attending him, says there
haE Tjecn no indication of paralysis, tne
action of his heart and general condition
being favorable to a recovery, notwith
standing the long period of unconscious
ness. Yesterday afternoon he roused up
several times and seemed to recognize h
father, but would Instantly drop away
Into a stupor. The exact cause of tho
accident is not known. All that is Known
is that some heavy timbers were being
moved on the trestle, and one piece
slipped. It is thought Smith stepped back
ward to get out of the way, or waa
struck by a timber. He went down lllte a
shot, and for some time the workmen
thought he had been killed. Tho nrst
message so stated, but after he had been
r picked up and taken to the hotel the
color in his race snowea tnai ne shu
lived, and the first message was cor
rected. The young man Is a capable man
with a plledriver, and the accident is not
attributed to carelessness. His parents
have been watching at his bedside, and 1
felt much encouraged over his condition
yesterday.
Want Cycle Path.
Before, tho cycle path law was attaoked
the Commissioners were preparing to
build a path on the west side of East
Twenty-first street from the entrance to
tho Southern Pacific carshop grpund to
Division street, where a connection "would
be made with the Section Line pat. Sur
veys had been made and the ground
staked off. The men employed in the
shops, of whom nearly 100 have wheels,
expected they would be provided with a
path. They had paid their blcyple tax for
two years with the understanding this
path would be constructed, but the wot
season is approaching and' the path is not
built. Of course, the men understand it
Is no fault of the Commissioners, but In
asmuch as they have paid their money it
is thought some arrangements could' be
made by which the path may yet be
built, if they will agree not to ask to
have the, tax refunded. It Is conscldered
prooable that every man at the shops
who has paid his cydle tax would sign
an agreement to release the county from
all responsibility In case the Supreme
Court affirms the decision of the lower
court, if assured the money could br,
applied to the construction of the path
on East Twenty-first street, Commlssl6ner
Steel estimated that the cost would be
less than HOO.
Should Be Abraham Arennc.
Now that "East Thirty-third street Is to
be improved it is suggested that It ?h6uid
be renamed' Abraham avenu'e, so that tne'
memory of the original owner, James
Abraham, woujd be preserved. Among all
the donations he made In "tho latter days
-of his life. nothing now remains to' per
petuate his name, The Portland Hospital
has gone forever,, while tn the corner
stone is burled a 510,000 mortgage and
all other obligations he ever held against
the institution. When tho cornerstone
was laid he came forward whh tho
cancelled mortgage and1 had it sealed up
In the copper box. After that came. his
donations to the construction of Cen
tenary Church. But there remains noth
ing to recall his name. A friend sug
gests that it would be a proper thing to
change the name of East Thirty-third
street to Abraham avenue. He planted
the 'shade trees along that street nearly
half a century, ago, and 'even these will
now be removed root and branch, to
make way for the Coming Improvement.
Hawthorne, avenue perpetuates tho name
of Dr. J. C. Hawthorne, Prettyman ave
nue that of Dr. Prettyman, and why, it
Is asked, .cannot this street be renamed
after James Abraham?
East Twenty-eiKhth Street.
Contractor Wolff is pushing the im
provement of East Twenty-eighth street
with a large force of men and teams.
The grading will soon be finished. Al
ready sidewalks are under construction
and 'lumber 1b being hauled to the street
every, day. Tho City & Suburban Railway
Cpmpany Is adjusting the track and put
ting it to grade and In the center of the
street. On completion of the Improve
ment the track will be built to Sullivan's
Gulch and then across the ground of the
Doernbecher factory to the north side.

PUSH WILL BOLT.
Mitchell-McBrideites Will Not Sup

The Mltchell-McBrldelte push will bolt'
the nomination of Colonel John McCraken,
the Republican nominee for Representa
tive to succeed. Knott, deceased, and will
Identify Itself with the so-called citizens'
movement, as It cfld in June. Many con
ferences have taken place between the
MJtchell-McBride leaders, and the bosses
o'f the Demoeratlc-Popullst coalition.
These conferences have held up the nom
ination. All hands are puzzled to pick
out a man who dan make any showing
against Colonel iMcdraken. Weak potfl
have been found- In the armor ofVevery
one thus far suggested.- Though John B.
Coffey appears to be as strong as any
one mentioned for the nomination it is
oonceded that he. cannot make much of
'a showing against a man of Colonel Mc
Craken's standing In the mercantile com
munity. The Republicans expected this new de
fection of the MItchell-MoBrideltes, and
are not disconcerted by it. It ha not been
decided whether or not tho City and
County Committee will open quarters for
the campaign.

PRIZE PIANO
To Be Given Away by the
Popular East Side Dry
Goods' Store.
A new fine new Weser Orchestral up
right grand piano was yesterday deliv
ered by Ellers Piano House at the store
of Mr. "VV. L. Dinsmoor, the enterprising
Bast Side dry goods merchant on Burn
side street. This Instrument is to be pre
sented absolutely free of charge to his
customers.
Ellers Piano House furnished Mr. Dins
moor a piano for this purpose last year,
and the contest for ita possession created
a great deal of attention, and as this
instrument this year is a very much finer
and more valuable one. It is safe to say
that there will be a lively scramble made
among Mr. Dlnsmoor's numerous patrons
to aecure this valuable prize.
