Flrt Baptist Church Has Prospered and Increased in Membership in His Ministery. Dr. Alexander Blackburn celebrated his third anniversary yesterday as pastor of the First Baptist Church. In his sermon yesterday morning Dr. Blackburn made brief reference to the fact that It was Just three years ago since he arrived In Portland. He was called without any personal acquaintance with the churcn, but was given a warm welcome arid the years have been pleasant and prosperous In all departments. There has been a steady growth without any of the forced methods sometimes resorted to by churches. Two hundred and thirty-seven members have been received, 74 of them by baptism. The Sunday school under John G. Malone has more than doubled, and two missions have been organized, one on Savler street and one at Dixie, In "Washington County. The contributions to all benevolent causes have been liberal and current expenses have always paia. There Is vigorous and united life In all branches of activity. The sermon did not specially refer to the anniversary, but was based on the words In Hebrews, 11:10: "It became him for whom are all things, and by whom are all things, In bringing many sons unto glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through -sufferings." "The book of Hebrews was written to remove prejudice as to the Messiah from the minds of the Jews," said Dr. Black burn. "The writer, probably Paul, proves that Jesus of Nazareth fulfilled the pre dictions of the Old Testament In all things. Our text is one of his strong declarations, a scripture with a volume In It. The viewpoint is Calvary, the time the crucifixion. " It became him." "We hear much about a religion that is becoming to the times. 'Something that will not offend the cul tured and advanced and refined 20th cen tury. The doctrine of the atonement and salvation by blood was well enough for the cruder days; we must have something less material and offensive to modern civilization.' Our answer to such repre sentations Is two-fold. A civilization in which the Mayor and Council and Judges of the bench pay from 51 to HO to see two ruffians punch each other, and In which crowds gather at the bulletins of a great newspaper to find how the brutal affair is going, can hardly boast Itself of superior culture. But granting all that is claimed, or supposing the world to have reached the acme of culture, the cross would still be becoming. For It becomes h&n for whom and by whom all beauty and grandeur and harmony exists. There Is no unfitness between the cross and God. In the glory of heaven the central thought of Its grandest song will be, 'Thou hast redeemed us by thy blood.' The world Is not too" refined for the suffering Savior. " 'Perfect through sufferings.' Here is Indeed a great mystery. I cannot explain the atonement, but there are some things that we may know. Christ's death per fected him by providing a ransom price for the sin of the world. This was not a ransom paid to the devil, as some have held. It was not a price paid lo a vin dictive God. God does not love the world because Christ suffered, but Christ suf fered because God loved the world. Al ways bear In mind this difference. The death of the Son of God somehow satis fled God's just law. He could now be just and the Justlfler of him that believeth. "But the death of Christ did more than this. It brought him Into touch and sym pathy with poor, broken, sinning human ity. He can now understand us because of his own trials and temptations. "Then somehow In his blood there Is that which cleanses the sin of the soul. That great company has washed its robes and made them white In the blood of the lamb. Finally this suffering per fected him as the captain to whom all the forces of righteousness will at the end rally. To him shall the gathering of the nations be. Around the standard of the cross the army of victory shall struggle until the angel shall proclaim, 'The kingdoms of this world have be come the kingdoms of our Lord and of his Christ.' " THE PREACHER'S MESSAGE. Rev. J. R. McGlnde Sny Tlmt It Should Not Be Senaatlonnl. The Rev. Jerome McGlade preached yes terday morning in the Mizpah Presbyter Ian Church, East Side, on "The Preacher's Message for Today." He said in part: "The preacher finds the question, 'What shall I say unto them?' arising often In his mind. As with Moses, so with the minister to day, this question Is one of natural sequence. It is one of a disturb ing nature sometimes. Moses was very much moved by the duty as It confronted him. If the minister is at all serious, he also must realize responsibility, for his message Is to those wno are going for ward soon to meet an eternal destiny, one which possibly his message shall make of eternal blessedness. This respon sibility was presented to Ezeklel the prophet. The Lord said to him that he was set as a watchman unto the house cf Israel: that he should take the mes sage of the Lord to the people, and that failure on his part, lack of fidelity In volved him in the destiny of the wicked. "John Knox said to offended Queen Mary. 'Out of the pulpit, I trust none can accuse me of too great plainness of speech, but there, madam, I am not mine own master, but must speak that which I am commanded by the King of Kings.' "First, then, the question carries with it responsibility. Moses felt it. The thought burdened his mind. He sought to evade the task. Granted that he was well pre pared for the undertaking, for what with 40 years of preparation In Egypt. In her schools, at her court, and in governmental affairs: and what with 40 years In Mldian, as a shepherd, under the Influence of con templation, the man now called of God was certainly prepared for the work. Yet the responsibility was tremendous. To extricate the people, to get the King's consent, to get the people aroused, and wl.llng, then later to guide, control them, bear with them, discipline them, this was no easy labor. So the preacher feels. If he be sincere, that to perform faithfully his duty Is a difficult matter. "Second What shall be the purport, substance, character of his message? Shall It be sensational? Certainly not in the common meaning of this word. And yet when the word is defined as fitted to excite great Interest, what is to be said should be characterized by this element. The people do not want the prosaic They do not want he gospel preached as If It were something common, having nothing of vital Interest. God caused Moses to usr some most extraordinary measures to get the attention of Israel and the King of Egypt. The wonders accomplished In that land remain memorials In history to Al mighty God. The entire course of God with Moses was startling in the extreme. "There are those who do not want to hear today. They prefer unconsciousness as to matters of eternal moment. And yet It may be possible that some be com pelled to hear, as was Pharoah. Surely, the Gospel Is sensational. What Is more startling, of more vivid Interest, than the facts of the Gospel? What is more won derful than the Incarnation? "Great is the mystery of Godliness.' What Is more sen sational than the cross and the uplifted Christ? So startling, so- wonderful, so mighty the Influence that the one up lifted Is to draw all men unto him. So the resurrection, the ascension these are no ordinary events. Neither was Pente cost, with Its rushing, mighty wind. Its tongues of flame, its 120 speaking In for eign languages, its 3000 crying out, 'Men and brethren, what shall we do?' "Paul was a picturesque figure. At one time the people of a certain city crowded around him and his followers, saying They who have turned the world upside down -have come hither also.' The book of Revelation la no quiet narrative, but combines the celestial and terrestrial ele ments to move upon the attention of the world. So the preachers who have moved the world have been men of great force and tower. It would be difficult to find a preacher In a more dramatic attitude than Luther at the Diet of Worms? Men of similar character were Savonarola, Calvin, Knox, "Wesley, "Whitefield, Ed wards, Moody. The failure of Charles Sheldon's Christian dally lay principally in that it contained too little news. Not that Christian people want the news of the day in a sensational form, but they do desire to know what Is transpiring In the world, and these events of themselves are sufficiently of striking and portentous interest. And so the Gospel Is full of his torical and spiritual events, concerning the destinies of human beings for all eter nity, life, death, sin, suffering, redemp tion, faith, resurrection, Immortality. "What shall I say unto them? What would Christ's message be if he stood be hind the sacred desk today? We may de termine this by considering his message spoken while upon earth.

Morris Gilbert, the newly elected president of the Congregation Ahavla. Sholom, came to Portland in 1SS6, from London, England. This Is Mr. Gilbert's fourth term as president or the congregation, and he and the other officers -were re-elected by the congregation In recognition of the good work they have performed. The other officers are: Mr. Jacob Asher, vice-president; Mr. I. Swett. secretary; Mr. S. Abrams, treasurer; trustees L. Friedman, J. DantofT, S. H. Adams, A. Rosensteln and John Dollar. T . . . . MMHtMII tifiii ninirni irems. the beatitudes, and I closing the Sermon on the Mount with a i vivid picture of the tragedy of a soul, engulfed In a flood which sweeps away hahitnttnn and soul' into the gull or ae- structlon. "What shall I say unto them? Paul an swers the question in the words, 'Christ and him crucified.' This certainly Is the substance of all preaching. The scarlet line must run through the message. But this is no narrow basis, for Christ and him crucified Is center and circumfer ence of man's world. Joseph Parker says there is not a verse, of Scripture that is half a mile from Calvary, and every ser mon should preach Christ. "Third What the preacher says in his message must be with authority. God re plied to Moses' question, that 'I am that I am hath sent thee.' The authority of the message was Jehovah God. So today there Is little place or room for apologetics in the pulpit. The Christ needs no de fense. Vaporings, theories, speculations are not needed. It Is said that there Is a possibility of the Bible losing Its authority and becoming a book of literary value only. But the Bible Is regnant as to au thority, and must so remain. The preach er, like Christ, must preach as one having authority. He must come to the people with a message, supported by a 'thus salth the Lord.' "Lastly What do the people want to hear? There Is a general Impression abroad today that the people are getting wears with the substance of tne uospei, that doctrine should be abandoned, that the whole system of our Christian faith needs revision. There Is an abun dance fof cheap literature aDroaa today upon this subject, written from the popular standpoint. There Is no doubt a vast amount of think ing that Is superficial, and many have Itching ears for some new thing. But the fact is, that down in the heart of hearts the people desire the truth, and hunger for the Gospel. The people do want to hear the precepts and promises of the Gospel, and they respect the minister who is brave enough to remind them of their sins, even though they manifest toward him displeasure. Said Daniel Webster, '1 want my pastor to remind me that my life Is mortal, that It Is brief, that my dally actions relate to eternity, that I am to be Judged by them, that the Judge is even now at the door.' The wells of hu man wisdom are without water, cisterns hewn out by men are broken and hold no water, the water of life Is in the wells of salvation, and he who drlnketh of the water that Christ gives shall never thirst." ARE WE PUNISHED FOR OUR SINS? Rev. H. H. Hoyt Gives HI VieTra on Eternal Torment. Rev. Hervey H. Hoyt, whose name was proposed for membership in the Portland Ministerial Association by Dr. Alfred Thompson, pastor of the Trinity Meth odist Church, delivered an interesting dis course yesterday morning In the First Unlversallst Church, East Eighth and East Couch streets. He gave an exposi tion of some of the important beliefs of the Unlversallst Church. The subject of his sermon was: "Are We Punished for Our Sins; If So, Why and How Long?" and his remarks were supported by the words of the text, "But he that doeth wrong shall be punished, and there Is no respect of persons." He said In part: "I presume no one tenet of our church is so often misrepresented as the doctrine of punishment, and for this reason I have taken this theme. There are many who do not know that we believe in future punishment, but not for a moment do we doubt the fact that, men are punished, both here and hereafter for their sins. This is in our articles. We believe In the cer tainty of Just retribution for sins. We also believe In one God, whose name Is love and In the' Bible. In this we are orthodox. I do not want to say anything critical this Sabbath morning, but 1 am proud that the faith of the Unlversallst Church begins with 'We believe'; those words are real and earnest to us. There Is another church that says 'We believe that "unbaptlzed Infants are damned.' X have too much faith in man to think any minister will say 'amen to that. I have been told that a great many do not be- lleve this, and every minister In that de- nomlnatlon subscribes to that creed and says: 'I believe these things.' Now, 1 do not like this. It casts a gloom over things. I am proud that when we sub scribe to our five articles of faith, we can say: 'These we do believe.' "We do believe that the wicked shall not go unpunished the way of the trans gressor Is hard. Whatsoever we bow, thaf shall we reap. If we sow in the spirit, we shall reap life evermore. There is no escape for punishment. Man cannot sin all the days of his life, and then place the guilt upon his master and Savior, making him an Innocent man to bear the punishment while the sinner goes free. Not so, but If you have done wrons:, you, and you only, shall receive for It. We are told that men who sin are worthy of death everlasting. Also, we are told that If these men repent, Jesus bears the punishment of their sins. The logic of this Is clear. Jesus, then. Is punished everlastingly. We love him too much to be guilty of such selfishness. Xiet us be strong enough to bear our own sins. "Here are two men. One has lived a pure, worthy life, has been a good father and honest citizen, but has never passed through the act called conversion. Therf, here is another man, with a life blacker than night, guilty of dishonesty and wrong. When death approaches, he be- comes converted, .now wnat snau we say of these two lives? Modern orthodoxy tells us that the worthy one must be cast out for all thne, while the other goes to his master at once, and In no wise re ceives punishment for his transgressions. What think you? Yet there is punishment for these sins, and no man can escape for, by the words of the text, there is no re spect for persons. We pass on to the next world with nothing but the charac ter we have made here. Now both these men I have mentioned shall grow In that other world and Increase In goodllness, and they shall also receive of every wrong done. "But the retribution Is just. Punishment Is of two kinds, vindictive and remedial, and we believe that God's punishment Is remedial. God always has the welfare of man at heart, and punishes because he loves and wishes to bring the man to redemption. It is not because he is angry or vindictive. We are punished so that we may be brought to a higher and noble life. "How does God punish us? Of course, we have given up the material aspect of It the fire and brimstone Idea. It Is this, In the consciousness that we have done wrong and In the terrible remorse we suf fer are we punished. We are also pun ished In the subtraction that has" been made from our character. Every wrong thing we do makes us that much less of a fine man or a noble woman. "Shall it be forever? Here are Henry Ward Beecher's words: 'If I believed In a God who stood at the door where men. go out of life, casting them down for ever, I should lose my faith." God Is love."

At a meet ing of the National officers of the Travel ers' Protective Association of America, held here today, the question of changing the place for the National m "ting of the organization from Portland, Or., to a city In the Central West was discussed, but no definite decision was reached. (Mr. Alexander Kuntz, -who wag a dele gate from Portland to the T. P.

A Great Project Under Way Execu tive Committee Named Sell vrood to Grand Avenue. A meeting of the commissioners .ap pointed by the Sellwood, Brooklyn, Clin ton Kelly and James B. Stephens Sub Boards of Trade, to open a wide boule vard from the golf links at Sellwood to a connection with East Eighth street, or with Grand avenue, was held yesterday morning at 10 o'clock at the quarters of Hose Company No. 3, Stephens addi tion. For two hours the proposed boule vard was considered. It Twa found fit! 11 was IOUna at 1 the start that of this boulevard a por tion, 80 feet wide, had already been opened from the golf links through Sell wood, near the Willamette River, to City "View Park, and then through the park the same width to a point a short distance south of the' Portland Crematorium, which Is practically two-fifths of the en tire distance. Thero was a full representation .from all the sub-boards. W. W. Plimpton, who Is the originator of the movement, was elected permanent chairman and Waldemar Seton secretary. It was de cided that the organization, composed of delegates from the boards, should be called the Portland Boulevard Commis sion, as it was suggested that it might be the means of a general similar move ment In Portland. D. M. Donaugh, of the Sellwood Sub-Board of Trade, was Invited to address the commission. Mr. Donaugh said: "I suppose I am invited to open this discussion for the reason that the initial movement for this boulevard was started by an honored citi zen of Sellwood, W. W. Plimpton, aided by Professor E. D. Curtis, Frank Gib son and others. Much of the preliminary work has already been done. Mr. Plimp ton has prepared a map, after much work, of the grounds through which this high way will run, If opened, and traced th route approximately. I am most happy to announce to these commissioners here this morning that on examination it was found that two-fifths of the proposed boulevard had already been laid out through Sellwood and City "View Park, 80 feet wide. "It corresponds with what Is known as Willamette avenue. This Is highly encouraging to me, and should bring much force to our support. It eliminates much hard work, and makes the project entirely feasible. Mr. Gibson, superintendent of the Portland Crema torium, who aided In laying out and building boulevards In Detroit, Mich., has been over the grounds and studied them most carefully and thinks the route se lected and placed on the map about the right thing. Now is the time for Port land to get these wide thoroughfares. The suburbs are building up, but the land 13 not high-priced, and It Is easier to do now what we may have to do here after the price of suburban land has advanced. I believe that we are going to win on this proposition. I think we will have the support of the Mayor of Portland and the City Council, when we come to ask for It. I am greatly encouraged at the presence of these earnest delegates at this meeting. I feel that you mean busi ness. We can do no better than hear from Mr. Gibson, who has wide experi ence in such matters." "With other members pf the Sellwood Commission," said Mr. Gibson, "I have been over the approximate route of this proposed boulevard, and have studied the country carefully. At first we thought that it should be placed along the river's edge on the bluff, but after further con sideration It is my judgment that the route should be from 100 to 200 feet from the edge of the bluff. A ?trlp of land would then be left on the edge of the bluff on which elegant residences could be erected, facing the Willamette River on one side and tle broad sweep of the boulevard on the other. By making the route In this way, it is my judgment that we shall experience less difficulty in get ting through. As to getting past the Portland Crematorium we shall have to move our frame building, which stands on the east side of the 30-foot street out of the way. We shall do that. "Now, I am going to contend for a 100 foot boulevard. This Is not going to be an ordinary street. It should be beauti fied with flowers and lawns and trees. There may be more than one driveway. This is done In other great cities, and why not let Portland, with the grandest scenic beauty on the continent, have these magplficent highways? At San Francisco land is being, condemned and parks opened up and driveways estab lished. I have traveled widely, but no where has nature done so much for a city as she has for Portland. Portland Is bound to have 200,000 people In a few years. We should get out of all narrow ways, and build for the future grandeur and beauty of the place that Is to be. "With the Lewis and Clark 1905 fair ap proaching, which will bring thousands here, we should not fall to beautify our city everywhere with boulevards. There is a movement to fix up the White House road. It will connect either by bridge or ferry with this boulevard we are trying to open. Down on the Peninsula there Is already a system of fine boulevards opened and yet to be Improved. We should be able to start out on the White House road, cross to Sellwood and then go northward to Unlvorslty Park on a maglnficent boulevard, lined with beauti ful shade trees and waving flowers. This is not a dream, but only what has been done by other cities. There is hard work ahead, but it can be done. Land may have to be condemned. Some ground will have to be bought outright. It will pay to go ahead. Let us move carefully arid be sure of our grounds. As has been said, now Is the time to open boulevards. I believe that they should be placed un der the charge of the Park Commission. They are not streets to be cared for by the property-owners. They are for the general public." The map and tracing, made by W. W. Plimpton, were examined and approved. All the property through which the boule vard will run, If opened, together with a complete tracing of the route, was shown. The property lies between Mil waukie road and the river, and is bound ed on the south by the golf links. As Indicated on this map the route of the boulevard begins from the golf links, near the Willamette River and follows Willamette avenue, an 80-foot street, through Sellwood to City View1 Park, and then through this park to a point a short distance south of the Portland Crema torium. From this point the route is just east of the Crematorium and passes northward, averaging about 200 feet from the river. Whereever it was possible, to lay it out on a street this has been done. For some distance a portion of the Mll waukie road becomes a part of the route. At the north end It follows the windings of the river west of J. A. Strowbridge's residence and makes connection with Grand avenue at the .intersection of Ellsworth street. It also connects with the south ends of East Eighth and East Ninth streets. To reach a connection with Grand avenue it would bs necessary to condemn and pass directly through the Woodward property. The route Is not regarded as arbitrary, but only ap proximate and may be changed. Mr. Gib son strongly contended that it should be 100 feet wide. On motion It was decided to adopt the map and plans shown In Mr. Plimpton's map, subject to such changes as may be found necessary. There was extended discussion as to whether the city, or county, should be asked to take charge of the boulevards and keep them in repair, as the property owners abutting could not be expected to do this. T. A. Wood contended that all boulevards should be under the care of the Park Commission, and that a provi sion in the new charter should be In serted, making it the commission's duty to do this. Others spoke against this, and the matter was left unsettled for the present. On motion of Mr, Wood the boulevard commission decided that it would Invite auxiliary members to aid In the work. Also a special committee of three was appointed, composed of J. J. Murphy, D. M. Donaugh and H. L. Wells, to present the boulevard proposition at the mass meeting of the Peninsula Sub-Boards of Trade, to be held soon at Highland, and ask their aid in establishing a general boulevard system, extending from the golf links on the south to University Park on the north. There was much further discussion be- i fore the commission decided on the best nrnoHnnl wnv of nrnc.pftrllnfr. Some thought the City Council should be asked tn tnirp nn thp oripnlnfr but it was de- ? 7L,Pt; Mm! I" t arrival for cided that the time had not arried for that. However, it was felt that Mayor Rowe. the City Council and City Engi y II .1 mi.. T7.I I neer would aid in all their power at the right time. It was finally decided to form an execu tive committee of five, with President " V -E-IIIUpiUIl, ""' . u..., ... .,-. . tn nrirnnlie n i-leht- of-way committee. This executive com mittee was invested with full power to jinnolnt anv reasonable number to aid in securing the rights of way and porform nnV tv,n,- ri,,tv it, mnv ho nPssarv. President Plimpton was given time in which to name this executive committee, and will probably do, so this week. D. M. Donaugh, Waldemar Seton and T. A. Wood werQ selected to prepare articles of Incorporation for the Boule vard Commission and look after the legal phases of the movement. v Those who took part in the proceedings were: D. M. Donaugh, W. W. Plimpton. J. J. Murphy, Frank Gibson. F. G. Urfer. S. F. White, Waldemar Seton, T. A. Wood, S; G. Richardson, E. D. Curtis and others. Several of the commissioners were upable to be present, but will aid the movement with all their power. Fore man Burt, of Hose No. 3, was thanked for the use of the company's quarters, and he responded by extending the com mission an invitation to hold all its meet ings there. At the close a number of the commissioners spent an hour making an examination of the situation In Brooklyn, where the boulevard will connect with Grand avenue and other streets. Mayor H. S. Rowe heartily Indorses the efforts of the Boulevard Commission. He said last evening: "Portland needs these long fine wide driveways above almost anything else. I indorse the efforts and objects of this commission, and I shall aid it with all my power." PAID THEIR LAST TRIBUTE. Friendi of Late County ClerU II. H. HolmcM Honor IIIm Memory. The funeral of Hanley H. Holmes, late Clerk of the County Court, was held yes terday afternoon at St. David's Episcopal Church on East Morrison, near East Twelfth street. There was a large at tendance from all parts of the city. Near ly all the county and city officials were present to honor the memory of the late County Clerk. Rev. George B. Van Waters, D. D., rector of St. David's Church, conducted an Impressive service in the church. Senator Joseph Simon, Judge M. C. George, Judge A. F. Sears, Jr., Judge A. I. Frazer, Judge J. B. Cle land, Judge William M. Cake, County Commissioners J. G. jMack and William Showers, Mayor Henry S. Rowe and Re corder S. C. Beach were the honorary pallbearers. The active pallbearers were Henry Rowe, A. W. Lambert, H. W. Tbielsen. Thad W. Vreeland, J. P. Ken nedy and Ed Werleln. Washington Lodge, No. 46, A. F. & A. M., took charge of the ceremony at the conclusion of the services in the church and performed the last rites at Lone Fir cemetery. Large delegations were present from Phalanx Lodge, Knights of Pythias, Fidelity No. 4, A. O. U. W., the Elks and many of the old members of the extinct East Portland Volunteer Fire Department, of which the deceased was Chief Engineer, were in attendance. There were many special floral tributes from the orders and other sources. Magnificent pieces came from the Courthouse, from the employes of the County Clerk's office, and other officials, besides those from the fraternal orders. Only a portion of the floral pieces could be taking to the cemetery, owing to their number. . The Old Pioneer Engine Company. The late Hanley H. Holmes was presi dent of the Pioneer Engine Company, of old East Portland. Like himself, many of Its members have died, some have gone elsewhere, but many are still residents of Portland. It was organized January 2, 1877, the following being the officers: H. H. Holrmes, president; Charles Neale, fore man; R. Linvllle, first assistant; W. PH drum, second assistant; E. A. Scolleld, secretary; C. E. Miller, treasurer; Harry Stutsman, engineer. The members were: J. Wendt, Charles Ferneau, W. C. Mor gas, F. Klndorf, F. Wayne, J. Neppach, W. S. Gordon, A. Klndorf, J. T. Stewart, K. Sheldon, John H. Hall, Henry Meyers, C. Dundee, Dav Raffety, H. L!stman, J. Wolfe, John DeBoest, J. A: Newell. J. L. Knott, L. C. McCormack, E. Brandon, H. Pape, J. Kadderly.

McMonles, J. Claggett, J. W. Warner, William McGulre, G. E. Forbes and J. M. Stott. To Organize for Fire Protection. Steps will soon bo taken at Montavllla to organize for fire protection of seme kind. Recently severe losses have been sustained by fire. There Is no protection, of any kind, and when a building catches fire, nothing can be done by residents but to stand helpless and let It burn to the ground. It is thought that even if Monta vllla should be annexed to Portland, It will be some time before It will be ac complished, and that something should be done meanwhile. A bucket brigade, or hose company might accomplish some good. The sub-board will probably take the matter up. Enst Side Noten. Mrs. Dalton, wife of Rev. J.

Tha One Way of Lowing: nn Umbreln. Umbrellas are about the easiest things In the world to lose, but a woman found a new way of getting rid of one yester day. On entering a street-car, to get her dripping umbrella out of the way, she shoved it down behind the back of the seat, In the place where the car windows go when let down. It leaned over to one side, and the jolting of the car finally threw It down flat on the bottom of thu recess. When she was about to leave the car she found it would be necessary to leave her umbrella also, as there was no way of getting at it except by taking the car to pieces. Her feelings, as she started for home In a heavy shower with nothing to protect a nice hat, may be bet ter imagined than described. Hnmmond Declined to Donate. ASTORIA, Nov. 17.
