THE MORNING OREGONIAM; FRIDAY, JUNE 6, 1902. PATTON HOME RECEPTION BOARD OF MANAGERS ENTERTAINS FRIENDS OP INSTITUTION. Gucntn "Were SIiOTvn Through the. Home, on "Which $3000 Was Re- ' cently Expended. The annual reception given by the Board of Managers of the Patton Home was held yesterday afternoon In the Hi me building, on Michigan avenue, Al bina. from 2 to 5. It was the best at tended of any affair of the sort given, as the weather was perfect. The custom had been to hold the receptions in February, but the time was changed to June. All the rooms of the building had been decorated with roses of many varieties. All the apartments "were fresh and at tractive. The guests commenced to ar rive at 2 o'clock, and kept coming and going so that several hundred must have fceen In the Home during the afternoon. The lady Board of Managers received the public These are: Mrs. Theodore Itflco. lai. President; Mrs. Shannon,' Mrs. A. N. "Wright, Mrs. L. A. IJavis. Mrs. W. S. Cutler, Mrs. R. H. Rand Mrs. V. I T'oughf, who became matron about two months ago, and others, assisljed in receiv ing guests and showing them through the building. Tea was poured in the handsomely dec orated dining-room "by Mesdamcs Jones,. Willets. Diamond. Goddard. Highland,. Cartright and Lockwood. It was served by Mioses Barnes, Brandt. Morrison, Car Bon, Barton, Rutherford, iiyes, Kllllngs worth, Corklsh, McGownn. Mrs. D. De luim had charge of the UnIng-room. The committee on decoration -was composed of Mrs. J. P. CHnc. Mrs. Charles Evans, Sirs. F. Campbell, Mrs. Kate Glbbs. The various committees and Board of Man- ngers spared no efforts In welcoming the guests and explaining the arrangement of The broad veranda extending along the front and sides of the building was thronged with the guests, and from It a line view was to "be had. Wisdom was displayed In changing the time of holding the reception to June, as the large attend ance attested. All expressed admiration lor the Improvements that have been' jnade since the reception held a year ago. Through the eilorts of William "Wadhams over $3000 has been expended in building the porch, enlarging the north wing of the building and la the construction of a tasement. Besides these improvements a line range and other needful articles have "been placed In the building as the result of the Interest Mr. Wadhams and his friends have taken in the institution. It is 13 years since the corner-stone of the present structure was laid, but the improvements and changes since that time have been many, and the faithful women who worked to carry out Matthew Patton's purposes when he donated the to.ock on -which the Home stands "have 1 een well repaid. There are -eight gentle eld ladies at the Home, and they are l".appy and contented. The general man agement of the-institution Is vety credit able. EAST MORRISON ROADWAY. ' Decking 1VIH' Soon Have to Re Re newed Hawthorne Needs Repair. The problem of redecking the East Morrison-street roadway between Union ave nue and the approach to the Morrison street bridge wUl soon confront property owners. "Under the grind, of a tremen dous travel the plank is nearly worn out. The recent fills made through "holes, cut in the surface have helped to weaken the dek. The plank was renewed two years ago, after the street had b,een closed 10 months, and It would be unfortunate, If this should be repeated. Howevjerflt" Is .hardly probable that the city would allow so important a street to be closed for so lorig a time again. The Belmont-street roadway deck Is again so "badly broken up that It is in a dangerous condition. Wag ons carrying heavy Joads of building ma terials for the warehouses under construc tion on Belmont street have nearly wrecked the surface. The city made gen eral repairs to the Belmont roadway some time ago, but its condition Is worse than before anything was done,. and for general travel Belmont can no longer be used. There are two large warehouses facing Belmont street now being built, and the need of the street being kept In repairs so that it can be used constantly will here after be greater than ever. The elevated roadway on Hawthorne aenue, between East Water and East Third streets, Is worn and dangerous, and should be replanked at the earliest possi ble time. Like East Morrison street, Hawthorne avenue carries heavy travel. Planks are broken frequently, and hun dreds of patches have been nailed qver the openings. The surface is rough and dangerous, and is really beyond the repair point. CARS OF SICK VOLUNTEERS. Gilbert Anxlllnrr Camp Will Estab lish Room 21 a Portland Hospital. Gilbert Auxiliary Camp, .No. 1, Second Oregon Volunteers, will before many months succeed in establishing a room and bed in a Portland hospital for the proper care of sick soldiers of. the Ore gon regiment. This auxiliary camp has been active in the care of ex-volunteers who laid in any way been unfortunate through illness and accident. Some time ago a young ex-volunteer met with an jiccident, resulting In his leg being broken. He was -without friends or money, but the auxiliary camp took him in charge and saw that be received all the attention be required. There are other similar cases in which the auxiliary has quietly aided members of the Second Oregon Regiment. There never has been any display made over these kindly acts. For a long time the officers and members liaye desired to havo a special room in one of the Portland hospitals, so that they could better carry out their work along these lines. They are now about to bring thl3 about. On July .20 Gilbert Camp will give an excursion to Albany, nnd one-half of the profits will be donated to the use of the auxiliary In the estab lishment of a room and bed In the hospi tal yet to be selected. A considerable sum la expected from this source for this worthy purpose. Clock From the "Old Conniry. Dr. Dav Raffety has just received a fine clck from the Black Forest of Germany. Charles Strube, who arrived home Wednesday, brought It with him. It is a cuckoo clook, and hand-carved. It is three feet in height. It" is from the fa mous clock-manufacturing establishment in the Black Forest. The carving on .the front Is very fine indeed. Dr. Raffety Js xcry proud of his clock, and has It on vsblbltlon at his drug store on East Oak street. Barlow Road Open. The Barlow road over the .Cascade Mountains has been 'cleared of logs that were blown across It during the storms ol the past Winter, and the snow has also disappeared from it. Yesterday it yas re ported by R. W. Parker that it could be used. However, there Is no travel yet across the mountains, but during the pres ent month the travel will start up. Snow in the mountains adjacent to this road is reported as disappearing rapidly.- G. A. R. Encampment. The M. A. Ross Po.jt, G. A. R., of Pleas ant Home, will hold Its annual reunion this year on the old camp ground In the Leslie tract, about the last of July and the first of August. This was decided on at the last meeting of the' post. At tin coming .meetings of the post and Woman's Relief Corps, which will take place In the hall at that place on June 14, the committees of arrangements will be appointed, and the preliminary steps -will be taken. Although the tract In which the camp. ground Is located has changed hands, the now owner has expressed his willingness Uiat the encampment should be held there as usual. From residents of Pleasant Home district It Is learned that the con ditions thee are favorable for a success ful gathering. Sawmills are in operation with full crews of men, and everybody Is prosperous. Last year the mills had closed down and the attendance at the encampment was small. Ennt Side N'oten. Charles Strube and wife have returned from their sojourn In Germany. They ha'd been absent nearly one year, and were glad to get home. Mrs. Adda Davenport Martin, sister of Homer Davenport, was the guest of Mrs, William McKInney last evening. She Is on her way to San Francisco. S. B. Cobb, who lives on East Four teenth and East Washington streets, yes terday morning reported that his house had been robbed during the night. A gold watch and 57 were stolen. WOODS GETS TWO YEARS He Pleads Guilty to Forging Money Order Signature. William Woods pleaded guilty to a charge of forging a money order. In the United States Court yesterday, and was sentenced by Judge Bellinger to imprison ment in the Penitentiary for two years at hard labor. Woods cilled for his mail at The Dalles postofllce and received a letter, which on opening he found belonged to another William Woods. There was a postal or der in the letter, which Woods, No. 1, knew did not belong tQ him, but Imagin ing probably that it was not forgery to sign his own name, he signed and re ceived the money, and spent it gladly. When the William Wood for whom the letter and money qrdcr were intended did not receive them, the postal authorities set inquiry on foot, and soon found out what Woods No. 1 had done. He was ar rested and indicted by the United States grand Jury, and has been lying in Jail here for several months, and will now serve out his sentence in., the . Peniten tiary. He says that hereafter net will not sign his name to other people's .money orders. BUSTEED ANSWERS SUIT. Denies That He Appropriated to His Orrn Use ?300 of Wright Jt Taylor. Richard Bustccd has filed an answer to the suit of Wright &. Taylor to recover 5200. He was sent to Northwest Terri tory to solicit orders and sell goods for the plantlff, and the money was ad vanced as expenses. Wright & Taylor allege that he failed to take orders for goods, and appropriat ed the money to his own use. Busteed denies this allegation and avers that he did work for the firm, paid rail road fares and traveling expenses and expended more than the $300 advanced to him. ANDERSON PIIEADS NOT-GUILTY.

SOME EXPERT COUNSELS (Continued from First Page.) be a practical man whose business It is with the aid of suitable assistants to run the fair with not too much distraction in the way of social or other side duties. That part of the enterprise ought of course jjpt to be neglected If It can be attended to by the president, vice-president or other-functionaries who do not have to neg lect practical details while giving up their time to social work. "Bear this in mind always that fully 99 per cent -of all who enter the expo sition grounds wjll be more interested In the Midway attraction than In anything else, and that a good part of the income of the fair comes from this source, since all the Midway shows operate upon a per centage basis. See to It that your Mid way Is In a good place, and that It is not stinted' In any way. Get the very best at tractions you can find and arrange if possible, for novelties In succession. But do not get yourself In such shape that you have not the power at any time to shut down upon any particular show that may transgress the limits of propriety and decency. One vicious show which It may not be In the power of your management to suppress will give your Midway a bad name that may cause thousands of relig ious people to keep away not only from the Midway grounds, but as well from the fair. "Another word as to organization: Don't make the mistake of importing a body of assumed experts to run your fair. Buf falo tried this and failed. It Is only from home people that the right sort of enthu siasm can be expected. Experience has of course developed "scene forms in keep ing accounts and some ways of collecting money and handling crowds that It is well to follow, but all that Is essential in these matters can be got by employing a few clerks who have had experience In other J exposition?. In no Instance Is It expedi ent in- my judgment to turn over the departments of 'large-initiative and re sponsibility to outsiders. Wherever this Idea has prevailed -it has resulted In fail ure. Make and administer your fair with your "own people: otherwise you are likely to make a failure and ypu are cer tain to miss many of the benefits which come from an enterprise of this kind. "I have "just one more word to add, and that is In connection with a matter already discussed, namely, the matter of site. While I cannot lay too much stress on .the Importance of concentrating your buildings; It ls not necessarily Implied that the grounds-shall be limited. I can believe that It would be a fine and novel feature If ,in connection with the fair grounds you could have an extensive park In which the crowds might refresh them selves. It would cost a little ..something to police it and light It .at nlcht but It would probably be worth as an attrac tion more than theputlay on the accounts named. Your forests are so fine and con venient to the city that I can 'believe It would not be difficult to give your fair an attraction In the way of a popular park or scries of parks such as no exposition yet held In this country has "bad." Among others with whom. J .talked at length and asked for advice In connection with the coming fair at Portland was Col onel AvcrJli the Director-General, 'who spoke with freedom of the lessons learned "oftentlmcG at some cost," "In the school of practical" experience. "Untried men," he said, "are generally very costly men when employed in posts of administra tion. Get men, out of your community who j have had experience in business which gives some warrant of, their capacity to handle men and accomplish results at minimum expenditure of money. Con centrated management Is a great advan tage, but In a matter so complicated as an exposition it Is easy to put so many things upon one man that he will not be abje to give any 'one -of them the atten tion which careful and economical admin istration requires. You want a. director-. generalt but you want also a director-general's staff, that will take hold of many details and carry them with onjy general attention on his part. "From what you have seen here and elsewhere there ought to be no question in your mind on the point of site. Make it as close In as possible, and don't have it too large. Have a natural water fea ture If possible, for water effects are highly desirable, and It costs a great deal to produce them artificially. Don't have more than 150 acres, and two-thirds of this area would be better If you can get in the more limited space the variety you want. There is economy of many kinds In a small slte-ln the parking of your grounds. In the making and care of roads. In the cost of guarding, which must be done night and day; In the transportation of- materials and supplies. Tfien a relatively small space is a con venience to your visitors and a great aid in mailing your off days and "you will have your off days not appear like days of absolute failure. "One of the first large enterprises you will have to take up practically will be that of advertising. Your department of publicity ought to be the first to be put upon its feet, for its activities cannot be gin" too soon, though there will of course have to be tact and prudence In its early operations, to the end that It does not wear out its welcome with the newspa-"" pers of the country upon whom you "must rely for a great deal of free advertising. The popular impression is that a newspa per man Is the Ideal head for a depart ment of this kind, but my opinion Is that the work calls for more administrative experience than the average newspaper writer has. A. man Who has had experi ence in the railroad service, especially in promoting passenger business, ought to do this sort of work admirably, and if you have a man who combines experience of this kind with the personal and other qualifications whlchare essential, I would advise you to' bring him Into the service of your Exposition. But, mind, h must be a man of good'quallty, He must have the social talent and experience which will enable him to deal with any and ev ery sort of man upon his own leveL He must be the sort of man who will be wel come In the 'inslae office'; who can make friends for your fair and get through courtesy what your fair company cannot afford to pay for. He must be a roan who can get himself Interviewed In the right way, who can say the right thing and get it printed so that it wjii exploit the fair rather than himself. Such men are not easily found, but If you will' look care fully among your own people preferably jSown your railroad row you will be pretty certain to find him. I -am a great believer that every community has with in it the men sufficient unto its needs, if it will only hunt for them. "I take it that you have two purposes In giving this fair. First, you want to make the fair itself a success; and, sec ond, you want to make it do your country the most possible good. You want to get out of It all the advertising possible; and you want at the head of your depart ment of publicity a man large enough to serve the Interests of the state when the chance comes to him. even where It may not be of any very manifest Interest to the fair itself. A good deal -of your advantage from the fair will come from the noise you make In regions from which you will not draw much In the way of either exhibits or attendance. You will want to do a good deal df advertising In the East and In the Middle West, though the bulk of your attendance must come from your trade field. You will find that the patronage that supports your fair will come from the district in cluded In the country to which you sell goods. Beyond that circle the thoughts of people turn to other cities, and they are not likely to come, to you in' very great numbers. "Don't make the mistake of putting up a lot of buildings to please your archi tect. They all want to make a 'triumph for themselves, and in this respect they are precisely like mankind In general. But the purpose in a fair Is not to make a series of artistic buildings, but to make a popular show, and any buildings that will house your show and not be hideous to look at will do. The easiest of all blunders Is to spend too much money on buildings; and it is a blunder you are bound to fall into If you permit your selves to be directed by your architects. "Another matter which ought to en gage your attention at once is the mat ter of getting other states to co-operate with you. Most of them will do it In one way or another If they are approached In the right way and at the right time. We did not begin soon enough, and so lost the chance In many instances because the 'Legislatures did not meet between the time of our promotion efforts and the time our fair began. You ought to keep track of the time the Legislatures meet in .all the states, and if you can, get each Governor in his message to recom mend some appropriation In your inter est. This of Itself will be a great ad vertisement. It makes the people of every state familiar with what you are doing, and It helps to get the Legislatures to act. And when two or three have made appropriations it helps mightily to ward pulling In others. Of course, when Legislatures meet it will be necessary for you to have representatives on the spot to push your interests along. It Is al ways better If the president or other high officials of your fair can do this work, but that Is hardly possible In your situation. What you will have to do Is to get some lawyer who has had experi ence in lobbying around Legislatures, and one . of your leading editors, for Influence on the newspapers, and have them go up and work up legislative co-op-cratlon for you. Taken In time and you have plenty of time you ought to get a very large representation from the sev eral states of the Union. "Under any circumstances there are bound to be some losses due to deficien cies in administration, but there are likely to be atill greater losses due to tlje skill with which concessionaires, especially Midway men. plan the game of 'shenane gcn.' It is almost an Invariable rule that the Midway shows operate on the percent age ,tasls, and there Is, of course, a thousand devices by which the showmen try to avoid returning the share due un der their contracts to the exposition as sociation. Properly managed, the Midway percentages due to the association ought to equal 0 per cent of the gate receipts. I say properly managed, for everyt,b-nff depends upon the way the thing is done. A weak man In charge of this department or a man not strictly honest may cost an exposition untold sums. Your man must be one who cannot be cajoled Into yielding too much who knows how to say no and keep on saying no and he wants to be above suspicion on the score of per sonal Integrity. "There Is always a temptation where money Is needed and nobody ever. yet saw one of these affairs where money was not needed to make arrangements with the concessionaires who deal In the larg est promises. That Is to say. It Is a temp tation to inexperience to accept the offer of the man who will promise to pay much for a special privilege rather than .the offer of the man whose assurances are less sanguine. Of course, .none of them ever has any money, or much money, to put up in advance.. Our experience has x been almost uniformly that the man who Is most glib In making pledges is least ready when it comes to performing them. The character of the men is really the first consideration, and this Is largely to be determined by what they have done else where. "But these are matters for the future matters to be determined after your site has been chosen, your buildings up and your organization complete. The first, thing before you is the 'Selection of a site and the second is the organization and setting In motion of your department of promotion and publicity. There la enough here to occupy all your energies for the next year to come. You cannot get at the work too soon, and you can't push your promotion department too hard or be too liberal with It. Money spent In getting other states to assist you, in bringing your plans and your Invitations to the at tention of exhibitors, dnd in Judicious ad vertising, is money well spent. You can not afford to stint these departments; In deed, you cannot afford to be 'other than very generous with them. It would havo been money many times multiplied In the pocket of this exposition If we had spent dollars on advertising account where we spent dimes. We did not get at it soon enough, we did not work It hard enough, we did not supply means enough. I wish you all the good fortune in the world in connection with the Lewis and Clark Ex position, and I hope you may be able to profit a little by our experience." In spite of Its misfortunes In some respects, It ha done wonders for our people and our city; its failure to pay out in a financial sense Is a trifling Incident which does not weigh a feather against the solid advantages -which, as you cannot fail to see, It has brought to Charleston.
