THE MORNING OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JANUARY 6, 1903. TAFT TO BE JUDGE Will Succeed Shiras on Su preme Bench. WRIGHT WILL BE GOVERNOR Important Series of Appointments Decided On Rockhlli Will Take Wright's Place as Vice-Governor of Philippine Islands. WASHINGTON, Jan. 5. If existing plans carry, some time next month the President will send to the Senate the nomination of Governor Taft to be an Associate Justice of the United States Supreme Court, to succeed Justice Shiras, who is expected to retire during that month. Governor Taft will be succeeded cs Civil Governor of the Philippines by General Luke E. Wright, at present Vice Governor, and the latter place will be filled by the appointment of TV. W. Rock hill, the present director of the Bureau of American Republics. There arc already many aspirants for the place which will be vacated by Mr. Rockhill. but eo far the President has made no choice. It appears that Governor Taft was of fered a place on the Supreme bench on the retirement of Justice Gray, but he felt that affairs In the Philippines were in such state as to require his own per sonal attendance, and he sacrificed his chance. The President has not forgotten his usefulness, and feels that the work In the archipelago will be in shape by Feb ruary so it may well be taken over by General "Wright. While Mr. Rockhill will receive a much higher compensation as VIce-Governor of the Philippines than he does in the Bu reau of American Republics, still his ac ceptance of the fist-named place involved the relinquishment of many ambitious plans he had cherished looking to the ex pansion of the present bureau into an in stitution far beyond its present impor tance and scope.

The Mayor further stated that If the sit uation at any time showed that the wo man's life, liberty or property were in jeopardy he would swear in a sufficient number of men to afford her ample pro tection. The undercurrent of excitement extends to surrounding towns. A large number of strangers are here, and more are ar riving on every train. NO NECSRO 3IAIL-CARRIER.

MANY Prove That the Copeland Treatment Is the Only Reliable Cure for Chronic Diseases.

Randall, the courteous com mander of the O. R. & N. steamer Geo. W. Elder, on the Portland-San Francisco run.

'In the reading of essays by the stu dents," asked Mr. Shortrldge, "were you not referred to as a teacher, and com pared with Confucius, Buddha and Mo hammed?" "No, sir. I never heard of such a thing," answered Mrs. Tlngley. "Have you not heard yourself referred to by students who compared you to Jesus Christ?" "No, sir." The cross-examination turned to thought waves, Mrs. Tlngley stating that the spreading of thought waves was not as described. A pure thought, she said, would Influence others.

Asked if she was a theosophist, she re plied: "I am trying to be," adding: "Theos ophy teaches to be pure, unselfish and good I am trying to be all that." Returning to the portion of defendant's deposition that had reference to her life In New York, Mrs. Tlngley said she had bitterly opposed hypnotism, but that she had accepted spiritualism to a certain extent. She absolutely denied that the admission of fees received from "char acter readings" formed a part of her source of maintenance. "Did you ever tell Mr. Fitch (a de fendent deponent) that his wife had not advanced far enough to be his com panion?" continued Mr. Shortrldge. "No, sir; absolutely not." "Did you discuss with- him the secret of happy marriage?" "I told him that our people on Point Lorna were happy because they were liv ing the right life. They were energetic and unselfish, while he was Indolent and absorbed In himself." The cross-examination had reached the deposition of Dr. Jerome A. Anderson, of San Francisco, when the noon Inter mission was taken. Mrs. Tlngley said that Dr. Anderson was not In good standing at the time of his last visit to Point Lorna. "Are there grounds around Point Lorna that are known as 'sacred grounds'?" asked Mr. Shortrldge. "Only In the sense," said Mrs. Tlngley, "that they are dedicated to humanity. We feel toward them. 1 suppose, as Christians feel toward their churches." "Was the Order of Scribes devoted to the study of occultism and mysticism?" "No, sir." "Did the scribes study archaeology with reference to America? What was their garb?" "Yes; but of Europe as well. Their garb was the same as that of the students." "Did you tell Dr. Anderson that he was being Initiated Into a very ancient order the Order of Scribes?" "No, sir." Questions concerning the Initiation Into the Order of the Sons and Daughters of the Rising Sun were not allowed to be answered, and Mrs. Tlngley gave a brief description of "Greek symposiums" and plays that took place in the open air at Point Lomaand at the Isls Theater at San Diego, saying that these consisted largely WITNESSES Captain C.

Until the innovation made by the Copeland phy sicians in placing medical treatment within the reach of the people, by making their charges for medicines and treatment- $5 per month, it was almost Impossible for those In moderate circum stances to obtain the serv ices of a skilled specialist. This feature of their practice is certainly a great thing for the people of this commu nity: yet this alone would not account for the warm and hearty commendation so fre quently expressed by their patients, but the fact that they are receiving the best medical treatment to be ob tained anywhere and at any price.
