rts M. Goddard, for a number of years
'Srith the firm of B. C Goddard & Co., and
n cousin of E. C and D. and W. Goddard,
of Portland, died yesterday at the resi
dence of his uncle, 490 Mill street, after
a long illness. Although Mr. Goddard
had known for some tlmo that he had
sot long to live, he was cheerful and pa
tient to the last, his one purpose seeming
to be to keep up the spirits of those
'around him, and to make his illness as
light a burden as possible. He underwent
'an operation for tumor last Winter, and
'although he gained temporary relief his
health gradually failed, and returning
irom the seaside the latter part of Au
gust, he was oonfjped to his bed, and re
mained there till his death. Mr. Goddard
was born in Iowa 25 years ago,- and had
lived in Portland since 2Z9L He was a
young man who jnade friends of everyone
witlt whom he came in contact, and the
Slews of his death will be a shock to hun
,fc 4dreds of young people in Portland. He
was for a number of years a member of
Company I, O. If, G., and was one of the
best soldiers in the regiment. Such was
his determination to bear up under the
knowledge that he w.s at death's door
that but few of his f riqnds had any idea
of the seriousness of his condition until
within the past few weeks, when no one
was permitted to see him. Funeral ser
vice will be held at the residence, 490
Hill street, tomorrow at 2 P. M.
Panning Gol? at Noicb. I. M. Cox,
who returned from Nome a few days
ago, brought along a sample of the beach
sand as an object-lesson, and was exhib
iting it on Third street Saturday to tho
prowd which gathered around him. Ho
brought the results of panning down
a single panful of sand to about half a tea
cupful, consisting of ruby sand, black sand
and fine gold. With a little water in the
pan with this mixture ho would wash it
around and around, showing the pure gold
and the method of separating It from the
sand. There was something over a dol
lar's worth of gold In the panful of sand
he selected, but he said it was rare that
a panful contained so much. The largest
amount he secured from one panful was
54 10, and the largest nugget secured
Weighed 10 cents. When one found a
place which yielded anything like $1 to the
pan he kept quiet, for if the fact became
known there would be such a crowd
around that nothing could be done. If
any one found a good-paying bit of
ground on a creek or elsewhere he would
quickly be Informed that some other per
son claimed the ground and that the
title to it must be established In the
courts. The beach has all been worked
over and over, and it is only worked now
to keep starvation away. Mr. Cox has
no idea of returning to Nome, and is not
likely to advise any one to go there.
Street Beinci Cleaned Up. Since the
orders issued by Chief of Police McLauch
lau last week relating to the enforcement
of the city ordinances on the throwing of
rubbish Into the streets, the patrolmen
have been vigilant in searching for such
cases and have notified quite a number of
citizens and property-owners to cease
their violations. In most instances the
residents, property-owners and contrac
tors were unaware that the practice of
using the streets as dumping places was
prohibited, and they have manifested a
willingness to co-operate with the author
ities in their endeavors to enforce the
ordinances. Some of the people notified
have been dilatory in removing debris,
and others ugly in accepting notifications,
and unless the police orders are compiled
with arrests will follow. By next week
the new policy should have a noticeable
effect on the city's streets in the dlrec
Hon of greater cleanliness.
Uktaib, To Oregon Prunes. An Oregon
prune dealer and expert states that Cali
fornia prune buyers are going about this
etate endeavoring to buy up Italian
prunes under the name of Fallenberg
prunes, with the evident intention of sell
ing them as California Fallenberg prunes,
a much inferior article. He advises all
Oregon growers of Italian prunes to en
deavor to see that they are marketed as
Italian prunes, as the Italian prunes of
Oregon have established a reputation for
excellence far ahead of any prunes raised
in California, and should not be allowed
to be sold as or to be placed-in competi
tion with the California Fallenberg
prunes, which sell for Beveral cents per
pound less than the Italian prunes of
Oregon.
Soldiers' Meeting Tonight. Veterans
of the Mexican, Civil, Indian, Spanish and
CTlpino wars are taking an active Inter
est in the meeting tonight, called for an
expression of sentiment on the policy of
expansion and tho Administration of
President McKInley. The place of meet
ing is room 600, Chamber of Commerce
building, and the time 7:80 P. M. Gen
eral Summers was requested to call the
meeting by ex-soldiers who wished an op
portunity of authoritatively expressing
their views on the National political Is
sues, with which they are most familiar,
especially the questions connected with
the retention of the Philippine Islands.
Resolutions will be formulated and
adopted.
Change of San Francisco Sailing. i
Owing to the steamship Columbia being
laid up at San Francisco for repairs she
will be -unable to get away from San
Francisco on schednle time. The steam
ship George W.Elder will be put in service
temporarily, leaving San Francisco Oc
tober 7, and leaving Portland October
U. Instead of Sth, as advertised for the
Columbia. The Columbia is expected to
be ready to resume her place In the serv
ice commencing with advertised trip from
San Francisco, October 1C.
Nor T. J. Matlock, or Heppner. The
T. J. Matlock, whose death was an
nounced yesterday as having occurred In
Los Angele6, was not the well-known
horseman of Heppner. The similarity of
names led many friends of the Heopner
Matlock to believe he had run his last
horserace. Mr. Matlock, of Morrow
County, came down from Heppner last
evening, and said his brother. T. J., was
alive and well In that town Friday.

Oxwr A JfcKsxr Calf. TJ19 dun-colored
hide on the carcas of an animal lying
partially covered UP in an out-of-the-way
corner of a Front-street commission
house a fw days Rjro attracted the at
tention of a visitor, who remarked to one
of the firm that if the Game Warden
caught him with that young eik in his
possession there would be trouble ahead
for him. The commission man, who ia
something of & Joker himself, replied that
he had refusd to receive the carcas and
had sent word -to the shipper to take It
away. "He Is an pld hunter," continued
the commission man, "and ought to-know
that the killing of elk is forbidden by
jaw;" "That .lfl all right," replied the
visitor, "but you will have trouble If
Game Warden Qulmby or any of his dep
uties find that elk In your possession."
An old resident of Washington County,
who had been killing deer and raising
onions there for more than 80 years, came
in at this Juncture, and. hearing what
was said about the elk, remarked aside
to the visitor that he was a deputy game
warden. He was advised to do his duty
by at once hunting up Qulmby and having
the commission man arrested. He started
out and in a short time returned with
Qulmby, who, when the elk was pointed
out to him, smiled audibly and, seizing a
leg of the carcas, whirled it around so as
to expose a dun-colored tall about a foot
long, with a white tip. "Jersey calf, by
gum!" shouted the old hunter, as he shot
oni of the door and disappeared.
A. O. TT. W. Anniversary. The general
committee of the A. O. TJ, W. ennlver
sary to be held October 27, at their last
meeting completed arrangements which,
when carried out, will make the affair a
most elaborate one. All interior lodges
are expected to contribute to the success
of the occasion by their presence. En
tertainment will be furnished for all who
attend and a good time guaranteed. In
the evening a grand Illuminated proce
sloa will be held, with plenty of fire
works, plenty of band music and other
attractions, which, with the number of
members that will be in attendance from
out-of-town lodges and those resident In
the city, bids fair to make it one of the
most imposing processions the city has
ever had on Its streets. After the pro
cession there will be held a grand recep
tion at the Armory. There will be an ad
dress, a programme of music and other
entertainment. The city lodges have
taken hold of tho matter with earnest
ness and hearty co-operation, which
makes its success an assurance. Special
features will be announced later.
In the Chipmunk Business. A boy out
In the southern part of the city, who has
a business Instinct, has eone into busi
ness of catching and selling chipmunka
Those pretty aftd gentle little animals
are In demand among boys as pets, and
he is doing a rushing business and mak
ing about as much money as Jim Ward
ner made ip his first venture In rabbits
He sells them at wholesale, that Is, bj
the dozen or half dozen, at 9 cents a
head, and by the single one at 10 cents.
He takes orders ahead, and then catches
the chipmunks to fill them. Occasionally
some of his stock gets loose and one was
devoured by the cat, and then there Is an
entry In his profit and loss account, but a
day's good luck in trapping puts him on
his feet again. Chipmunks make fine pets
for children, and soon become very tame,
and If treated properly enjoy living In
confinement. In many regions scores of
them may be seen at noontime waiting
around the mouth of a tunnel, where the
miners come out to eat their lunch, fo
the bits of cake and pie-crust which are
always thrown to them.
Railway Extension Completed. The
people out at Fulton have been made
happy by the completion of the exten
sion of the Corbett-street line of the City
& Suburban Railway to their town, and
now the people on South Fifth street are
beginning to feel ha"ppy over the pros
pect of the extension of the Traction
Company's line south from Jefferson
street. The work of grading Fifth from
Jefferson to Sherman is well under way,
and is being pushed vigorously and will
be continued down Sherman out Second
and down Sherman to First street, where
the First-street extension of the City &
Suburban Company has halted for lh
present. Just how both these roads are
to cross First-street bridge or when the
bridge Is to be put In condition for any
road to cross, or whether a bridge will
be built there or a solid fill made, the
future will demonstrate.
Fine Fishing. Harry Gordon, the well
known sportsman and maker of artificial
files, has returned from an outing on Bea
ver Creek, a few miles south of Yaqul
na. In company with a friend he went
up tbo creek as far as it is nn.vig-a.ble for
boats and enjoyed excellent sport. All the
fishing was done from a boat," and at first
only mountain trout were taken, but JuBt
before they left the sea trout began run
ning. The two during their stay caught
something over 1000 trout, some of them
weighing 3 pounds. As he came home
he stayed over at Taqulna a day or two
to enjoy the sport of trolling for salmon,
at which Drs. Stolte and Moody were so
successful a few days before, but the run
of salmon had stopped and they did not
have much sport there.
Improvement or Stark Street. The
improvement of Stark street, from Third
to Seventh, with vitrified brick, will soon
be completed. Three blocks of the Im
provement were completed some time ago,
but on account of material for the King
block obstructing the street the Improve
ment of the block between Fourth and
Fifth has been delayed. The contractors
commenced work on this block a few
days ago and have the curbs about com
pleted, and the street Is being rapidly
cleared of all obstructions and Is par
tially graded already. A few days fair
weather will enablo the Job to be com
pleted in good shape, and the sidewalks,
which -have so long been obstructed with
piles of brick for the pavement, can be
cleared up.
Hard-Fought Fire. The fire depart
ment had over an hour's battle with the
flames In the Wildwood brick building,
northeast corner of First and Taylor
streets, yesterday morning. Tho alarm
was turned In from box 12, at 4:45, but
the flames had reached considerable head
way in the third story before that time.
The premises were occupied 'by Harper's
dancing school, and It Is not known how
the fire started. The Dayton Hardware
Company had some stock stored In the
upper portion of the building, and this
was damaged to some extent by fire and
water. The damage to the building Is es
timated at 5G0O.
FUNERAL OP SAnVATOR LtAPRESSI. Sal-
vator Lapressl, the young Italian who
died a few days ago, was a general fa
vorite with his countrymen here, who
very largely attended his funeral yestor
day. The procession was headed by a
band and the hearse was followed by a
large number of friends on foot and In
carriages. There were many beautiful flo
ral tributes, among them a large cross
surmounted by a dove. Mr. Lapressl was
only a little over 20 years of age, and,
having been successful in his business af
fairs, was about to start on a visit to his
friends and relatives in Italy when seized
with an Illness which soon proved fatal.
Sundat in the Park. The City Park
was gay yesterday with thousands of
visitors enjoying the lovely weather, the
delightful view and the antics of the ani
mals In the museum. The prairie dogs are
allowed to burrow In the ground within a
certain limit, and these were objects of
considerable interest to the visitors. AH
the animals in the park are in fine condi
tion, from the elk to the prairie dogs, and
they seemed well pleased to see the
crowds of well-dressed men. women and
children who had climbed the park paths
to make them a visit.

yittlBfrlr la Holy Siosary;
Rev, William p. Gilbert, pastor of $la
Calvary Presbyterian Church, yesterday
began a series of three sermons Intended
to draw attention to the creed of Chris
tians. The three will be based on the
Sermon on the Mount. The text for last
evening's sermon, -was, "And he taught
them," Matthew v:2. The pastor said, in
part: ' '

INTERNAL REVENUE RECEIPTS.
Qatn In Business of Portland Office In a Year.
The receipts of the Internal Revenue office in, this city for the month
of September, 1300, amounted to SlOS.EfTl 68, which shows a marked Im
provement in business, among brewers and cigar manufacturers especi
ally, as will be seen by the following comparative statement of stamp
sales for September, 1900, and the corresponding month of Jast year. -
The increase in receipts for September, 1900, over September, 1S09,
is actually Jll.SSS 29, although owing to a legacy tax of $16,000 from the
Failing estate being Included in the nriscellaneoua receipt for 1890, the
total receipts for that year are $4lil 71 over thoee for September, 1900.
From tho following comparative statement of receipts for J3Q0. with
recolpts for 1889. it will be seen that there is a satisfactory increase for
this year over last In nearly every Item:

bearings. I call for the reading of the
resolution.' The effect-was marvelous.
The spelfthat Hayne had cast over the
audience was broken. Webster, at a sin
gle stroke secured the attention of every
one. The speech and its results every
one knows. So in our discussions of
Christian truth, It Is well for us to take
our bearings and get back to our course,
"Christ's Sermon on the Mount Is his
statement of moral truth. It Is the only
lengthened abstract of any of his dis
courses. It is a universal creed. Men
everywhere believe in, the Sermon on 'the
Mount. It Is the best'statement of Chris
tian character ever given. It is full of
truth that promises regeneration to all
the life and affairs of this world.
"In rhetoric we are taught to begin
a discourse with a truism. But the Mas
ter began with this strange and wonder
ful sentence, 'Blessed are the poor In
spirit, for theirs is the kingdom of heav
en.' The nine beatitudes are an embodi
ment of the whole sermon. Follo'wlng
this matchless Introduction are two direct
addresses: 'Ye are the light of the world.'
'Ye are the salt of the earth.' Then In
four verses Is an exposition of the rela
tion of the new kingdom to the old: 'I
am not come to destroy tho law but to
fulfill.' The remainder of this first chap
ter is a statement of the new law fulfill
ing the old. Then follow 10 phases of the
new life Illustrating the practical appli
cation of the new law. The exhortation
Is then embraced under four divisions,
concluding with the simple parable of the
house built on a rock and on the sand.
This Is a very simple outline, Indeed, yet
all-embracing. Every sentence tells and
every word has werght. These sayings
were strangely- powerful, backed by the
person ot the Christ. Those who heard
him said, 'Ho taught as one having au
thority.' "In this sermon Christ has set a very
high standard for human conduct. Not
the act only, but the splilt are weighed
in the new law. Thou shalt not kill,' was
the old law. The law of Christ Is this,
'Whoso Is angry with his brother without
cause shall be In danger of the Judgment.'
Love Is the fulfilling of the law. There
Is no other way of fulfillment. In those
days retaliation was always practised.
The old way was an eye for an eye and
a tooth for a tooth. Christ says, 'Rtslst
not evil, but whoso shall smite thee on
thy right cheek turn to him the other
also. If any man will sue thee at law
and take thy coat, let him have thy cloak
also.'
"At first this seems extreme. The world
would want nothing better than for Chris
tians to stand such treatment. A Chris
tian was robbed recently. Some ono
laughed and said: 'Oh, don't growl about
it; turn the other cheek and you'll be all
right. A Christian asked payment of
what was due him in a business matter;
Some one sneered, 'Oh, this Is Christian,
indeed. Jesus of Nazareth forgot and
forgave.' It Is sometimes difficult to know
just what Christ meant about turning the
other cheek.
"A literal meaning would be absurd.
Self-preservation is the first Instinct of
our being. Christ himself was forever
against wrong and evil of every kind, not
In vengeance ever, but always for tho
right. The Christian, must forever con
demn the wrong. If a man Is penitent
forgive him; for that matter, forgive
him anyway; but condone his crime
never. If a man Is a thief, right
eous law locks him up. Whatever is
wrong is wrong, and there is no use in
shilly-shallying about it. And the Chris
tian ought to brand as wrong that which
is wrong. The Master means for us to
cultivate a spirit of forbearance and love;
to overcome that natural tendency to
venge an eye for an eye; that spirit ot
vindictive retaliation. But the Christian
who lives in this world, as well as other
people, wants to look out.
"But the Master Is right. Meekness Ifl
mightier than arrogance. Gentleness is
stronger than bluster. To love an enemy
Is better far than vengeance. He was re
viled and reviled not again. Twice when
they would have killed him he slipped
away from their midst, and yet when
duty led him on he was led as a lamb to
the slaughter, and yet he opened" not his
mouth.
"And thus the whole law Is put upon
the basis of a higher law of love."
FEAST OF THE ROSARY.
Celebrated With Solemnity and
Pomp in Dominican Church.
The Feast of the Holy Rosary was ob
served yesterday morning In the Church
of the Holy Rosary, on the corner of
East Third and ClackamaB streets, with
solemn high mass and distribution -of
roses to the congregation. The Interior
of the large auditorium had been anaro
priately decorated for the occasion.
About the altar the decorations were
particularly striking. The Image of tho
Virgin Mary, with the Infant Jesus, was
enveloped in richly-colored Autumn foli
age, while the altar -was draped with
green festoons and adorned with rpses.
which formed a striking contrast with
the Innumerable twinkling candles. On
the left side of the auditoriiim were 15
banners, representing the 15 mysteries of
the Holy Bosarys-fiva Joyful mysteries,
including the Annunciation, the Visita
tion, the NatSwTtyi the Presentation, and
Jesus with the doctors; the five Borrow

of the blessed Mary. -
I The large auditorium was occupied by
Tinder the charge of B. C. Masten, 30
trained yolw and an orchestra rendered
the solemn mass in an excellent manner,
the different parts being rendered harmo
niously. Rev. T. P, Henry, O. P., cele
brated the maw. and he was assisted by
Revs, a a Shaw, d, p., o, p., and e. c.
Warren, O. P, An eloquent sermon on
the significance of the Holy Rosary was
delivered by Rv. J. X. O'Brien, O. P.
He spoke with force and eloquence in ex
plaining the services and appealing for
devout attention to duty. -At the close
qf 'tho Sermon the services proceeded to
the end.
The solemn feast of the Holy Rosary
was Instituted by the Catholic Church in
memory of the victory gained by the
Christian arms. October 7. 1571, over the
Turks. The celebration of the feaat was
$$
committed to the churches of the St.
Dominic Order, to be celebrated with
groat pomp and solemnity. The roses dis
tributed to the congregation before the
principal mass are solemnly blessed, and
are to be preserved and never to be
thrown away or destroyed As the rose is
the most beautiful of flowers and ravages
the senses with Its bpauty and perfume,
It symbolizes spiritual sweetness, and.
the Rosary is a spiritual garland of mys
tic roses for the brow of Mary. Accord
ing to the tenets of the church, the de
votion of the Holy Rosary was revealed
to St. Dominic by the blessed Virgin
Mary, who commanded him to preach It
throughout the world, and hence the Re
sary has ever been the special hesltage of
the Dominican Order.

BEAUTIFUL ROAD.
Sights for Wheelmen Out Toward
Powell's Valley.
Wheelmen who in touring over the cycle
paths east of the city have not passed
over the Powell's Valley road have missed
'some of the finest scenery In the country.
There Is as yet no cycle path on the Powell
road, but at present the road Is In good
condition, and by leaving the Section and
crossing -to it Just beyond Commissioner
Steel's residence the best portion of the
famous Powell Valley may be seen.
About .one mile from Gresham there ib a
cluster of from between 40 and 50 farms
located like the spots on a checker-board,
stretching south from the Powell road, up
the slopes of the hills arid east and west
on Joltnson Creek.

ver Helds, stretehlng out In every direc
tion, are of deep green. White farm
houses, .nestling among the trees, like
great boxes, with a background of brown
and green, in the fern and tree-covered
bUJs. to the. s,Quth, with, their comfortable
barns and fine stqck, complete a picture
pf thrift not often seen.
On the .hill above Gresham Is the fine
fa,rm of W, W. Cotton, with its white
dwelling standing Jn an orchard; its big
red barn, th,e slips and hopbouse and, the
Keeper's qottage, complete the picture
qf a striking scene. Gresham la a nillfl to
the east With its quaint little cottages,
Its stores and cheese factory, while to
the south and east is a magnlfiqent rango
(ft farms and farm houses. Yesterday was
perfectly clear, and from the commanding
hiU on which the Cotton farm Is located
a perfect view of Mount Hood could be
Obtained, together with the Intervening
country. There were hundreds of wheel
men and wheelwomen speeding over the
cycle paths on the Section and Base Line
roads yesterday, but few ventured on the
Powell Valley. It will pay any one who
ha3 never been over that route to
Gresham to go that way this Fall. In
this valley there is wonderful prosperity.
It Is safe to say that not a farm can bo
found in this district that has not a horsa
and buggy, and In many cases a flns
carriage, so that the farmers and fami
lies come and go as they please.

"WANG" WELL PRESENTED
Boston Lyrics Delight Paofaed
House at Cordray's,
Colonel Thompson's Boston Lyric Opera
Company scored an unqualified suceess
last night at Cordray's Theater In
"Wang," outdoing Itself and over
whelming last week's marked good work.
Standing room only was the sign hung
out early In the evening at the box otllce,
and the banner crowd showed Its appre
ciation of the good work and pretty sing
ing of this meritorious company. Colonel
Thompson struck a happy vein when
he switched to light opera solely, for
his merry funmakers and well-drilled
choruses have previously, as well as In
the present engagement, pleased and well
satisfied Portland's amusement-loving
public.
"Wang" was put on and sung last night
with a daBh and swing that was invig
orating. The principals were well cast,
nd the chorus had to respond 'to many
flattering recognitions. The Oriental music
and costuming was pleasing, both to tne
ear and the eye, while the comedy and
Interpretation were handled In a flnisfted
tyle. Interpolations ware scarce, but
Bertha Davis' song "No Rose Without Its
Thorn," was certainly a pleasing effort.
Topical songs, thankfully devoid of politi
cal hits, but replete with up-to-date skits,
particularly "Ask of the Man, In the
Moon." were good, on account of their
newness. The banjo chorus of the las!
ant was a novelty and made a hit.
Among the principals, George KunKel
as Wang, the whimsical and erratlo ro
cont for the Prince of Slam, made fun
to no end, while Josephine Stanton as tne
Prince, dressed In natty, well-fitting
men's clothing; and singing her part In
her usual sweet and effective style, waa
a clever foil. Bertha Davis as Marie,
the Prince's sweetheart sane her way
more deeply into the musneal people's
hearts than In her last week's efforts.
Her Interpolated song and her duet with
Miss Stanton In the first act showed her
good, clear, aporano voice to zood advan
tage. Added to her eood voice Is her
ploasincr and winsome stage presence,
in which graces she Is particularly fa
vored. Sara Carr as the Widow Frlm
osusse, sang her part well, but would
have done better had she added just a
slight da3h of the necessary French de
bonnalre duality to the role. Daisy How
ard as Gillette was pretty and chic
as usual. Marion Rae as the messenger
boy had the messenger boys' slang to per
fection, but how those call boxes would
ring 'If all messenger boys were put uy
in such attractive package!
Pepat, the keeper of the sacred elo
phant, was entrusted to the care of John
Henderson, and, although the part is usu
ally a small one, Henderson turned many
commonplace .passages into very amusing
Incidents: Charles Huntington, one of th
new faces in the cast, proved himself a
comedian of no mean ability, and made
a most amusing and accpetable char
acter of the old roustabout and hard
drinking Colonel Fracasse. His clever
work was one of the feautres of the even
ing's entertainment. One of the prettiest
and best rendered selections of the opera
needB special mention, and that was Miss
Stanton's excellent rendition of the sweet
song, "It Was Another Fellow." She sung
It with such tantalizing abandon that
no one could blame Henry Hallam, In tne
role of Jean, for giving vent to his welt
assumed exhibition of temper.
"Wang" will be sung this evening,
Tuesday and Wednesday evenings, giv
ing place to -the "Fencing Master" on
Thursday evening.
WHERE TO DINE.

ant, 305 Washington, near Fifth. Coffee,
meats, dairy products, etc., are the best.
