J. W. Powell Raises Money
for Church Debts.
HOLDS MEETING ON EAST SIDE
Central Metkodlst Church of Albina
Obtains Pledges fop $3000 In One
Day' ."Work Mortgage Will
Soon Be Burned.
y my, my. doesn't that make you
glad? Ifow, brother Jones takes a whole
bond. Who'll be the next one? Why, of
course, here's Sister Brown. She's going
to take another bond. Who's nest?"
The speaker was J. W. Powell, of Buf
falo, T., who claims to have raised
church debts to the amount' of $1,250,000
during the past year. He Is engaged in
liquidating the debt on the Central Meth
odist Church of Albina. Meetings were
held there throughout yesterday.
"Come, come, we must keep things mov
ing. Just look at that big debt ahead of
US. What, you take a quarter of a bond?
Well, thaf s pretty good. Now this is what
I like to see. Here's Brother Charles
Johnson taking two bonda You should
have been here this morning. All the
Johnson family subscribed then; I thought
it was nothing but 'Johnson,' 'Johnson.'
Johnson all the time. I Just expected
that the Johnsons were going to pay all
the debt on this church. Now, all you
ushers keep those pledges moving. Brother
Smith wants a bond. Where's the usher
that's got Sister Smith's pledge for an
other one? Why, of course, Sister Smith,
I knew you wouldn't fail us. My, my, my,
doesn't that make you glad?"
The 52000 debt on the church and parson
age was disappearing under the enthusi
asm of Mr. Powell like snowflakes in July.
A large board behind the speaker showed
the number of bonds constantly sub
scribed. Mr. Po.well has been called "the
Napoleon of church finances," and he han
dled the congregation in a way that pro
claimed his expertneES in his own partic
ular and unique business.
Always the right word at the right time,
and his audience was kept in such a good
frumor that the people involuntarily sub
scribed money to an amount that would
have appalled them had they not been
nder the spell of the ready speaker's en
thusiasm. It .was much like drawing blood
from a turnip, but Mr. Powell got the
blood and the church can lift its head once
more, while the congregation will never
regret Its generosity.
Everybody Asked to Give.
A meeting was held In the morning for
the older members of the congregation and
another long session in the afternoon for
the Sunday school.
"Now, Miss Brown, how much will your
class give? Half a bond? Well and good.
Oh, Brother Jones, you were going to in
crease your subscription weren't you?"
The brother had not considered such a step
possible, but Mr. Powell's manner of tak
ing things for granted took him unawares.
"Yes, sir; I will take two of those
bonds."
"My, my, my, doesn't that make you
glad? What is It, Miss Brown? Your
class will take a whole bond instead of
half a one? That's what I like to hear.
Keep things moving. Time is precious,
you know."
The ushers had offered pledges for
bonds to every person in the audience.
The reporter tried to look as though he
had just given a large subscription when
an usher came his way, but that enthu
siastic young man could not be bluffed.
The pledges called for a "voluntary bond"
to the amount of $36, or a part thereof,
payable within a specified time, with in
terest The greater part will naturally be
paid before MarcV 1, as the Interest begins
at that date. The amount received was
iept a profound 'secret from every one,
.even the pastor of the church. Rev. W. T.
Kerr, until announced by Mr. Powell at
the close of the final meeting late last
evening.
Mr. Powell has raised more money for
churches than any other man in America.
He arrived here on Wednesday, but no
meetings were held until Saturday night.
The three sessions of the financial revival
yesterday accomplished the result re
quired, for, though he will be present at
another meeting this evening, his work
will be finished and he will leave for Al-
hany and then to Los Angeles, where he
goes to raise money for a new church
edifice. Few men in the country can equal
his success in speaking to children and
young people. He actually obtained the
answers he desired from the little tots.
who have often caused much amusement
at such meetings by giving unexpected
replies to an older person's question. At
ter he had started 25 of the prominent men
and women of the church through the
audience with the pledges, a few timid
ones made for the door, but Mr. Powell's
quick remark about any one leaving a
church during the collection was an ef
f ectual barrier against any further move
ment in this direction.
Through the aid of Rev. W. T. Kerr, the
jjastor, every member of the church had
some special part to perform in the meet
ings. There was 'an executive committee.
SO or more ushers, an introduction com
mittee, ono on the Sunday school, one on
decorations, another for "public comfort,"
a reception committee, and so on. Every
member of the congregation was Interested
in the meetings, for every one had some
.thing to do, and under Mr. Powell's un
failing spell of enthusiasm they did it.
When the financial part of the afternoon
service was completed, the "Napoleon of
church finances" showed the other side
of his versatile nature.
"Now, children." said he, "I want to
tell you something of Jesus." Before the
congregation knew exactly what was
happening, a full-fledged Methodist re
vival was in full swing, carried on in the
same quick, hustling manner that char
acterized the first part of the meeting.
Here also a number of the prominent men
and women of the church aided the
speaker by personal work among those
who declared themselves ready to become
Christians. At the close of the service
SO young people gave their names to Rev,
Mr. Kerr as having been converted and
ready to join his church. Several others
will join other denominations.
Total Amount Rained Is $3000,
At the close of the campaign last night.
Mr. Powell announced that $3660 had been
raised in the three meetings under his
charge. This Is $1660 more than the debt
on the church property, and $1160 more
than was asked for. The announcement
of the unexpectedly large sum was such
a surprise to the pastor. Rev. W. T. Kerr,
that he was unable to respond when
called upon, and Dr. J. R. T. Lathrop, of
the Grace Church, responded In his stead.
The smallest sum subscribed was 5 cents,
and the largest $500. A congratulation
meeting will be held this evening, and
the mortgages will be publicly burned in
a few weeks.
How Mr. Potvcll Dock It. .
"The whole secret of my success," said
Mr. Powell, after the meeting, "is that I
study the needs of each particular church
This bond method which I have used
here is only one of the seven which
employ. Every detail of the meetings,
the music, the decorations, the commit
tees, is arranged months before I arrive.
Every part of the service is systematized,
and my system Is of my own invention.
and Is copyrighted. You might think that
J do certain things in the meeting just
because I happen to think of them at the
time, but that It not so, for I know be
forehand every part of the service. No,
J am not a minister, for I used to have
a wholesale house In Buffalo, N. Y.; in
fact. I have it yet, but have paid no at
tention to it for some time. I have done
this work occasionally for 20 years, and
for' nearly five years continuously. I
travel all over the country, and came
here by way of Green Bay, Wis.; Denver,
Colo.; Lcwiston, Idaho, and Falrhaven,
Wash. From here I go to Los Angeles,
and then back East again."
The reporter had noticed that Mr. Pow
ell apparently krtaw every one in the con
gregation by name, though he had known
most of them only a day, and asked how
he could remember names so well.
"I have a peculiar faculty that way,
and, of course. I have cultivated it for
years. Now. u X saw your race in a big
meeting In Chicago two years from now.
I could say, 'Come up here on the plat
form, Mr. , I want to use you as an
example.'
"I have raised $1,000,000 a year for
church debts for the past three years,
and this year It will amount to $1,250,10.
I am the only one in this business, and I
certainly have no peer in it. My engage
ments with the churches on this Coast
were made over a year ago, and I have
the greater part of 1903 dated, and am
now making engagements for the year
after that. I could do nothing in this
business if everything was -not left for
me to control, and I make no engage
ments without that understanding. If the
decorations don't suit me, I have them
taken out: if the minister is going to
preach an hour's sermon, and I think It is
too long, that sermon gets cut uown to
half an hour. The whole thing Is to know
how to handle your audience and to keep
them In the mood for generous giving.

BOWDOIN'S NEW LIBRARY
The Bnildintr I the Gift of an Alnm
nus and Is to Coat $300,000.
Boston Herald.
During the week the first Installment of
books was moved Into the handsome $300,
000 library building presented to Bowdoin
College by General Thomas Hamlin Hub
bard, of New York, of the class of 1857.
The building was begun In the Spring of
1901, and it is expected that It will be fin
ished about the first of February. The
formal dedication, however, will be post
poned until commencement week, and will
occur on June 24.
Although the library is yet in an unfin
ished state, several of the smaller rooms
have received their finishing touches, and
the stackroom Is also finished, and so, in
order to save time later, when the real
work of removing the books from the pres
ent library begins, workmen have been
employed this week in moving the dupli
cates, medical works, etc., which are
stored in Adams Hall, to the new library.
It is expected that the real work of re
moval will begin about the 1st of March,
and It is hoped to have it completed by the
beginning of the last term In April.
For many yeans the quarters In King
Chapel occupied as a library have been so
crowded that many volumes have been
stored In other buildings. General Hub
bard's gift was announced by President
Hyde In April, 1900, and the next Spring
the building was begun.
The building Is at the southern end of
the campus, thue filling the fourth side of
the quadrangle. It faces north. The main
portion of the structure Is 176 feet long by
46 feet wide, .with a tower 30 feet square
and 100 feet in height rising from the cen
ter. In the center of the rear of the library
is a wing 90 feet long and 46 feet wide,
which contains the stackroom. The build
ing itself is two stories In height, but the
stack has five floors. The stackroom Is
52x40 feet, and on Its five floors contains
100 double-faced bookcases, with an esti
mated capacity of 160,000 volumes. The
college library now contains 70,000.
The building is as beautiful outside as
within. It' is constructed of Harvard
brick, granite from a Brunswick quarry
and Indiana limestone, which is used 'for
interior work and for trimmings on the
exterior of the tower and bays. The roof
is made of steel beams, flreproofed with
hollow tile arches, and covered with slate.
Near each end of the building are large
projecting bays, with handsome oriel win
dows, which greatly add to the attractive
ness of the building. In the rear of the
stackroom there are platforms for each
floor to facilitate the dusting of books.

W. Anthony, who rendered signal assist
ance to Mrs. Bailey In furnishing data f oA
ner- work. It Is a valuable and. beautiful
volume, quite exhaustive In treatment,
and superbly Illustrated, with an unusual
ly full and onmplete Hat of olrds seen at
Portland. Or. Although Mrs. Bailey's
home is at Washington, j). C she Is well
known to Oregonlans through her visits
to this state and "her Summer outings
with the Mazamas. The sister of Ohe
famous Government ornithologist, Dr. C.
Hart Merviam. the wife of another. Ver-
"non Bailey, and hence with all the re
sources of the United States Government
at her command, Mrs. -Bailey has had
unusual facilities for bird study; and her
book is sure to arouse much local interest
among Oregon nature-lovers.
A highly Interesting report of the pro
ceedings of the annual meeting of the
American Ornithologists' Union and Au
dubon Societies at Washington, D. C,
furnished by the Oregon delegate. Rev.
William Rogers Lord, was listened to
with eager attention. Nearly all the well
known ornithologists and writers on bird
life were presc-nt, among them Dr. C.
Hart Merriam, the re-elected president Of
the "Union; Dr. "Rldgeway, Dr. Palmer.
Vernon Bailey and his wife, Florence Mer
riam Bailey, Messrs. Oberholser, Nelson
and Olds, of Washington, D. C; Frank
Chapman, William Dutcher and Dr. Allen,
of New York; Mr. Brewster, of Cam
bridge, and Olive Thorne Miller, of Brook
lyn, N. Y.
"The most interesting things to me, and
I judge they will be to you," writes Mr
Lord, "were these. On Tuesday after
noon Mr. Chapman's comparison of the
bird life of Gardiner's Island and Cobb's
Island, with lantern slides. On the for
mer island bird protection is and had
been fora long time almost -perfect. The
island has but one family, with attend
ants, on It, and has 1500 to 2000 acres at
least, Is wooded and cultivated, and has
fresh water bodies and salt water
marshes. There are on the Island no ene
mies of the birds save the occasional
sharp-shinned and Cooper's hawks, not a
cat and no weasel. Herd birds have not
only multiplied, but have changed their
habits. In Tespect to nests, they build
no longer high, but as the robins do, pic
tures of whose nests there we saw some
times very near the ground; and the os
prey and fish-hawk on the beach occa
sionally. Here birds have crrown tamp.
and the sight of man Is not a signal for
uignt. The gulls and terns are protected,
and appreciate their refuge from the
plume-hunter.
"But on Cobb's Island the reverse In all
these respects is true. Once the island
was thickly populated with birds, espe
cially with gulls and terns. Now few
birds of any kind are there, and these few
are In a state of terror whenever a hu
man being approaches. Such desolation
has the millinery demand wrought."
"There was a fascinating address by E.
W. Nelson, of the Biological Survey, who
has been for some time studying the birds
of Southern Mexico and Yucatan His
subject, 'Evolution of Spesics and Sub
species as Illustrated by Certain Mexican
Quails and Squirrels,' was the result of
his having found a complete set of inter
grades of each of these living forms show
ing between species, entirely different In
color, the gradual changeB wrought by
climate."
Mr. -Lord's report then referred to the
interesting address by H. W. 01d3 upon
"Form in Bird Music." His was a mar
velous exhibition of what n fine car can
do to distinguish variety in the songs of
birds of the same species. He said that
he had more than 1000 different songs of
the song sparrow. He had charts to
show the imitative, antiphonal, comple
mentary and other forms of bird music, as
the little creatures carry forward or an
swer each other's songs. He gave by
whistling all of the songs he showed, de
lighting every one.
"I talked with him," writes Mr. Lord,
"and he was greatly Interested In what I
told him of the Western meadow Jark,
which he had never heard."
Frank Chapman and Mr. Fuertes gave
an Interesting account of their visit to
the haunts of the flamingo in the Baha
mas. Mr. Fuertes, who Is the greatest
bird artist In the history of the world,
sketched and painted a flock of flamin
goes on the wing, flying in line, with their
long legs extended behind and their long
necks stretched out before, looking
against the sky like a red or pink rope of
irregular, size.
"William Dutcher read his report as
chairman of the commltteo on the pro
tection of North American birds," con
tinues Mr Lord. "This committee under
takes to secure a police force for thje At
lantic Coast from Maine southward to
protect the gulls and" terns from plume
hunters and to save the eggs from those
who take them, sometimes by the bushel,
for food. It also has charge of the Lacey
act. forbidding Interstate commerce In
birds protected by state laws. It Is its
duty, too, to look after the wholesale mil
liners to see that the engagement entered
into by the National Wholesale Milliners'
Association with the Audubon Societies Is
carried out, the engagement being that
no birds of the United States shall be
sold by those who compo3e this body.
This committee also looks after legisla
tion in the several states where there Is
none, and in those also where the legis
lation is Inadequate. The committee re
ported great success in saving the gulls
and terns.
"Dr. T. S. Palmer, reported on the en
forcement of the Lacey act. and his over
sight of the wholesale milliners In Balti
more and New York. Dr. Palmer Is a
very able man. He Is a master In bird
knowledge. He Is perhaps the only one
who cannot be fooled about 'madeblrds.'
He has brought the dealers Into line by
persistent and expert work."'
In conclusion Mr. Lord said: "There
were papers from Wisconsin and Illinois
as well as from New York, Massachusetts
and Connecticut, and I am certain that
Oregon Is not behind these states, so far
as public school Interest Is concerned. I
believe Oregon has the conditions now
that will enable the bird societies In that
state to make her the banner state in this
regard.
"The most enjoyable time I had was at
a dinner at Mrs. Florence Merriam Bai
ley's. In her own home I came to know
her well, 'and surely there is no ornitholo
gist or bird-lover in. the country more
charming in personality. And, again, at
a reception at her house, every one there
was made happy in the good company
present, and in an exhibition of the bird
pictures of Louis Puertcs, and also of the
flower pictures of your fellow-townsman,
Frederick Walpole. The latter ranks al
most as high in his fleld,as Mr. Fuertes
doesin his." f

BATTLING FOR MILLIONS
TEXAS ATTORNEYS HUNT EVIDENCE
IN PORTLAND.
Title to Spiridle Top Oil Wells Is As
sailed by Helm oi Professor
John Veatch.
Prominent attorneys from Beaumont,
Tex,, are In Portland laying the lounua-
tlon for a mighty legal battle in tne
courts of that state regarding a contest
to the claims of title to the Spindle Top
group of oil wells set forth by the heirs
of John Veatch, who has slept in a lonely
grave In an obscure corner of Lone Fir
cemetery for 31 years. The principal, wit
nesses whose testimony has been taken
this week are Dr. Dav Raffety, Dr. C. H.
Raffety, Mrs. Laura Bek (nee Miss
Frush), I. W. Pratt and AVilson Benefiel,
sexton of Lone Fir cemetery; also O. B.
Johnson, now of Seattle. Judge R. R. Ha
zel wood and Judge R. F. Bordages, Judge
Rowe and Judge Greer are the lawyers
who have been taking evidence on both
sides. The depositions of the witnesses
have been taken before United States
Commissioner McKay.
Perhaps the most important witnesses
were Drs. Dav and C. H. Raffety. The
former was a special friend of Professor
Veatch, who had headquarters at the
drug store of the Raffctys, on the corner
of East Second and East Oak streets.
When Professor Veatch died, Dr. Dav
Raffety looked after the details of the
funeral services, which were conducted
by Portland Lodge, A. F. & A. M., when
I. W. Pratt was master.
The title to the richest cluster of oil
wells in Texas, valued at uncounted mill
Ions of dollars, Is Involved In this case.
The details read -almost like a romance.
Professor Veatch was a scientist, recog-
nlzed as an authority in botanv and ge-
ology. He traveled largely In pursuit of
his profession, and his explorations ex
tended to Texas. In this state he received
from the Government then in power what
are called "headlands." Apparently, what
was allotted to him was of small value,
but on this land the gushers were found.
Until oil was discovered, there was no
thought of contesting the title. The title
to the oil land is held under a deed exe
cuted to Professor Veatch for .about J2C0O.
The pleadings show the land was trans-
f erred once from Veatch, and then back
to him. Plaintiffs arc trying to show that
this final deed was obtained from him by
fraud, and that Professor Veatch never
executed it, while the defendants are en
deavoring to show that the title is per
fectly clear.
Professer Veatch came to Oregon about
34 years ago and tried to secure the ap
pointment of State Geologist, but failed
In the effort. He then made his home on
the East Side. Professor Veatch. says
Dr. Dav Raffety, was purely a scientific
man, and cared for money only as It
could further his Investigations. The re
sult of his work is recorded in Govern
ment reports. Heretofore the attorneys
on either side have conducted their in
vestigations in Portland concerning the
life of Professor Veatch separately, the
first steps having been taken by the de
fendants, and then by the plaintiffs, but
this week both sides have been represent
ed, and the witnesses were cross-examined.
The deposition of-Mrs. Laura Beck
was taken at her home, on East Third
street, Friday evening. Every scrap of
information concerning Professor Veatch
has been looked up and a record made.
One of the attorneys said that the trial
will be set In the Spring In the Texas
courts, and will probably be a long-drawn-out
case.
THEY HAVE JOINED FOR.CES.
SeUvrood. and Sonth Portland Have
United to Secure Nevr Ferry.
Sellwood and South Portland have de
cided to Join forces in the effort to secure
a free ferry across the Willamette Kiver
In tnnf n-jrt- nf thn rtv
The union 01
forces was brought about by a Joint meet-
intr of the committees from the Sellwood
Board of Trade and the South Portland
Improvement Association. Both sections,
through these organizations, will work to
secure the passage of a free ferry bill
through the Legislature at the coming
session. This bill has already been pre
pared by D. M. Donaugh, of the Sellwood
committee. It provides that the city may
issue bonds to the amount of J30.000 for the
establishment of the ferry. This amount
will be required to build a boat and to
provide suitable approaches on both sides
of the river. The location of the ap
proaches will be settled after the bill has
been passed. However, the landing on the
East Side will probably be at the foot of
Umatilla avenue. On the West Side fhe
landing will be a little more expensive to
build, but the main effort will be put
forth to. secure passage of the bill, and
the details will follow.
The union of the Sellwood Board of
Trade and the South Portland Improve
ment Association makes ,a strong com
bination, and back of these organizations
are the two growing sections on both sides
of the Willamette River, with their in
creasing population and manufacturing
Interests. At a joint meeting soon to be
held In the office of D. M. Donaugh, a line
of action will be laid out. There has been
some talk of Inviting the co-cperatlon of
the Albina Improvement Association,
which is working for another free ferry
lor that portion of the city, so that nei
ther section will work against the other.
A conference will probably be held with
President S. Connell, of the Albina Push
Club, with this end in view. There is
now hardly a question but that there will
be two ferry bills before the Legislature,
ono -for Sellwood and the other for Al
blna.c MASONIC CEREMONIES.

TOLD OF THEIR SINS.
British Lecturer Instructs Chicago
Women in the Ethics of Buying.
Chicago Tribune.
"The Sins of the Shopper" might well
have been the topic of the lecture deliv
ered Monday by Mrs. Percy Widdrington,
but she chose to classify her remarks un
der the more generous title of "The
Ethics of Shopping."
Mrs. Widdrington. who is the lecturer
of the Fabian Club, of London, spoke be
fore the Society for Ethical Culture, in
Steinway Hall.
"Women should not go Into stores and
turn over articles on the counters and
compare prices with no intention of buy
ing," she said. "It only distracts the at
tention of the clerks from those women
who really wish to buy. Nor should
women worry the saleswomen by an Im
perious air or other discourtesy, or by
compelling them to show goods just to
satisfy the whims of the shopper. This
is all sinful, and I would add that it is
just as wrong to leaveyour shopping to
the last moment and then add to the
crush about the counters."
The audience was mostly composed of
women, who.jvInced much Interest in the
lecturer's remarks, but this Interest deep
ened Into a sort of dismay when the Eng
lishwoman continued:
"We have no right to buy goods at any
store unless we know under what condi
tions those goods were manufactured.
They may have come from sweatshops,
where hundreds of mites of children toil
through the weary hours when they
should be sleeping. They may have been
stitched and cut and hemmed In rooms
heavy with a vile atmosphere, devoid of
sanitation and breeding manifold dis
eases. "When you buy such goods, you are
Immoral as Immoral as more direct sin
nersfor you encourage the continuance
of such conditions, you help maintain a
high death rate, you help breed sickness,
you make it necessarily to pay yearly
larger amounts for police nrotectlon
against crime and for inspectors of the
public health.
"If we are lo hope to Improve the race,
you women must practice moral buying,
as you would moral living. This reform
must begin, like all others. In the home.
You must not buy merely because a thing
Is cheap. You must not buy red or yellow-headed
matches, for you will encour
age the continuance of conditions that
produce the terrible eating disease pre
valent among workers In sulphur and
phosphorus. You should buy only safety
matches. Then, when you buy crockery,
you should avoid all those kinds In which
the glaze Is made of lead."
Of the sweatshops Mrs. Widdrington
said:
"Both here and in England the hours
are long and the holidays infrequent. I
don't believe these evils can be entirely
removed by voluntary agencies, although
these can set an excellent example by
drawing attention to the seriousness of
the problem, initiating some lesser re
forms and educating public opinion to the
necessity of legislation on behalf of the
shop employes."

William O. Worth, who began his experi
ments In this direction In 1SS4. Mr. Worth
points out the chief value of his final
method of transmitting power, the con
stancy of speed motor and an ingenious
method of gearing and coupling by which
the motorman may at will convert the
high speed into power and thus double
the traction capacity of the vehicle. It is
also claimed that a wagon of this kind
can do the work of three ordinary teams
of equal loading capacity, at a cost of
maintenance of half what Is required for
one such team.
