Berger tor His Work, Claiming- Likeness Was Poor. BoMwe the picture he painted of George Washington bore strong marks of resem birince to William Tell and bis -likeness of tf'crawflsh looked mora like a lobster, B. G. Berger, a sign painter, -was not able to collect the full amount of his bin, and 'brought suit for the amount In Justice Reld'e court. The case "was heard yesterday, but no decision . will bo given until today. The evidence of the -witnesses was conflicting, and Judge Held insisted that be must first visit the scene of dispute and see for him self It the father of -his country wore Ger man features and if the crawfish waa of the wrong species. The suit was against J. I Mitchell, rep resenting the Order of Washington- The sign had been painted on the Inside of the fence on the baseball grounds of the Na tional League. The order bad decided that their lodge needed advertisement, and that "they would make an appeal to the people who visited, the baseball grounds. Berger was 'called and instrucetd to prepare an. appropriate sign to advertise the Order of Washington. Now, upon the literature of the lodge is a. likeness of the Nation's reat character, and the only specifica tion, as to the sign to be painted was that lit was to have a large picture of ho of Ihatchet fame. Tie sign waa painted and the members of the committee visited the grounds. Borne of them had sot really went to see (tha game, but they were willing to pay jth price of admission in order to view 'with pride the handsome sign and tell their neighbors that they were members of the Order of Washington. But their tprid6 was stung aa they sat and listened' to tho comments. "Who is that?" people asked on every jBlde. 'Washington? That does not look like Washington." The matter would then bo "discussed, and each time the conclusion twas reached that it really did look like eome great character and that William 'Tell was the most likely subject to apply tbv likeness to. When the painter went around to col lectUs bill he did not meet a very warm reception. His price was $75, of which he, Jnad collected about $50, and the members 'vowed they would not pay tho remaining $25, for they were not satisfied with the "work. In fact, they were not willing for. 'the picture to be on the fence at all, and Insisted that the painter smear the like-' ness over with colored paint and make a design of a different sort. A new design was made of red, white and blue .colors, and no statesman now adorns the fence but etill the lodge members are not will ing to pay the bill. The case was argued yesterday by Otto J. "Kraemer for the plaintiff and Charles F. ,Lqrd for the defendant. "What did the picture, look like?" asked Mr. Iiord, in his effort to show that there might be. a mistake. "Did it look like Judge Kramer?" The Judge has red hair, and the witness smiled as he remarked that there was red, white and blue on the picture. An effort was made to prove that the workmanship of the painter was generally poor, and the proprietor of the Quelle res taurant was called. "I employed him to paint a sign for me" said tho Baron, as he took the witness-stand. "I told him to paint a picture I of a- crawfish, and when he got through with it It locked much more like a lob- i eter than it did a crawfish." Witnesses were -called by both sides who had seen the pictures. Among some of them tho opinion prevailed that Washington's pic ture could not have been mistaken, and as for the crawfish on the fence. It looked natural enough to eat. Others were of the opinion that the pictures were all wrong and that the painter had no business to ask for pay under the conditions.. Wash ington's portrait is gone and the Judge will not be able to see whether or not the painter did Justice to the theme, but the fish Is still gleaming on the fence and Judge Beld will today decide the case. In fluenced greatly by his opinion as to ; whether tho likeness is of a lobster of i not. H. E. DOSCHTO RETURN. Special Commissioner to Oaalra Ex position Will Sail August S. Colonel H. E.

The world's shipbuilding reached its highest point In 1901. The diminished output since then has been less notlce ablo in the United States than abroad. The principal decrease in the United States for tho past year has been in steel steamers built on the Great Lakes, which numbered 41, of 131,660 ' tons, compared with 52 of 161,797 tons for the fiscal year 1901-02.

ONE CHURCH WAS MISSED SECOND BAfTIST BRETHREN DID XOT .ATTEND "COXVEXTIOIS. . Desire of Pastor S. C. Lapham to Live in Christian Brotherhood Makes Him Keep His Flock at Home. The .Second Baptist. Church was very conspicuous at the meeting of the, Wil lamette Baptist Association held in the Third Baptist Church, of Albina, Tues day and Wednesday, not by the presence of delegates and the pastor. Rev. S. C. Lapham, butt by their total absence from the floor of the convention. Mr. Lap-, ham's name appeared several times on the programme for addresses, but at no time was he before the association. On the other hand, the Central Baptist Church, the offshoot from the Second Church, was very much in evidence. Rev. William E. Randall, the pastor, delivered the annual sermon and made the principal report on education. It Is very unusual for a prominent Bap. tlst Church to refuse to take part In tho proceedings of the annual meeting of the association, especially when Urged to do so, as In this case, -and when the pastor is given a place on tho programme. It was the outcome of the action of the re cent Baptist Council In the recognition of the Central Baptist Church, without ex pressly stipulating that the new church should not establish Itself In the field oc cupied by the Second Church, and because the council refused to receive and consid er In open council tho protest of the Sec ond Church. For these reasons the Sec ond Church decided not to participate in the proceedings of the Willamette Bap tist Association Convention, although urged to do so. Rev. Stanton C. Lapham, the pastor of tho' Second Church, yesterday said: "The outsiders got a wrong Impression of the true situation, and think there Is more In It than there really Is. We sim ply dropped out of the convention of the association for this year for the reason that If anything should come up concern ing the relations of the Second Church and Mr. Randall and his associates, we would not be present, and should not be compelled to axlswer.. We want to live in Christian brotherhood and don't want to prolong the trouble. If the case had come up we should not have remained quiet, and for this reason wo thought best to remain out this year, but will attend next year with our delegates. Mr. Randall's prominence on the programme may be ac counted for from the fact the programme was made up nearly a year ago." This was Mr. Lapbam's diplomatic ex planation. However, in speaking of the work of the council, which recognized the Central Baptist Church, he said: "It was an unheard-of proceeding that the church mostly Interested should not even have been Invited to take part In the council of recognition, and that the coun cil should decline to hear the protest we sent to that body. Our protest was pre pared in the most courteous manner. Wo simply protested against the examination of the differences between the two churches by tlie council without the Second Church being allowed to be present with represent atives, and further, we objected to the establishment of an opposition church 'In our midst between the Second Church on the north side and the Calvary Church on the -south there being a little more than a- mile between them. That was what we protested against, and not against the recognition of the new church. We felt If Mr. Randall started a church In this territory it would be noth ing more than an opposition church. We were not given any representation In the council, although there were severe reflec tions, made on the Second Church, which we were not permitted to answer. A Bap tist minister from. Spokano declared that above all things the Second Church Bhould havo been permitted a representative be fore the council of recognition. But we did not want to carry the trouble into the association, and decided to remain out un til next year. We want to live in Chris tian fellowship with every one. The' Sec ond Church Is growing and prosperous. We have just held .a successful revival meeting, .and 20 were converted." Mr. Lapham said that If the Central Church should go to Sunnyslde, or some new field not occupied, there would never be any. friction, but to locate between the Second and the Calvary Churches would result in Interference and antagonism. HILLSDALE SCHOOL CLOSING. Professor John Tenschcr Retires E, M. Morgan Elected Principal. The closing exercises of the Hillsdale public school were held Wednesday even ing, and were attended by the patrons and friends. A programme of unusual Interest was rendered. It was opened by a song by former graduates. Twenty boys and girls recited Beautiful Willamette," In an ef fective manner.

Rsz, and a well-written essay on "Lewis and Clark" by Peter Strelff. Thev Swiss Quartet gave another selection, when County School Su perintendent F. R. Robinson was Intro duced. He gave an excellent talk, com plimenting the school on Its excellent ; standing, and urging the gospel of hard work as the price- of success. Professor Robinson's address was received with ap plause. The programme closed with a song by former graduates. With this term Professor John Teuscher closed his connection with the Hillsdale school, having been connected with It as principal for the past seven years. He re signed and E. M.

A meeting of the directors of the Rus sellvllle School District was held Wednes day evening. All the directors were pres ent. Including Messrs. Lewis, Mlckeleon and Longnecker, and the new clerk, Thomas Jennings. At this meeting It was voted to make the first payment of $1000 to Contractors Bartman & Dorfer on the new schoolhouse, unc'ur construction. It was reported that good progress is being made on the new six-room building, the foundation and frame being completed. There Is every Indication that the building will be completed for the Fall opening. At this meeting the bonds of the" clerk were fixed at $10,000, and as the olsrxlct only allows him $50 per year for his serv ices the directors appropriated $30 to pay the charges of tho company for carrying the Clerk's bonds. The bonds were placed at these high figures for the reason that ".the Clerk will have the handling of the building fund besides tho money used to defray the expenses of the ochool. The new census of the cYtstrict showed there are 269 pupils of the school age In the district. A year ago the census showed 225 pupils. J. F. Croft is the new principal. East Side Notes.
