THE MOjRNIKG OREGOKIASf, -FRIDAY, JULY 3, 1903.
LOOKED LIKE A LOBSTER
ARTIST DID NOT PAIXT PICTURE OP
CRAWFISH SATISFACTORY.
Order of TVatsbinirton Refuses- te'Pay,
It, G. 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.

In the United States indicate for the new
fiscal year an output below that of the
past year Just ended.

highest point In 1901. The diminished
output since then has been less notlce
ablo in the United States than abroad.

steamers built on the Great Lakes, which
numbered 41, of 131,660 ' tons, compared
with 52 of 161,797 tons for the fiscal year

Herman Epplnger and Bernard Ettllnger
obeyed the summons of the grand Jury to
appear before it today, making their first
appearance in public since the failure of
tho firm of Epplnger & Co., Of which they
were members. They proved bad wit
nesses on the stand, and. invariably re
fused to answer questions on the grounds
of defective memory or that it would tend
to Incriminate them.
. Nothing in the way of throwing any
light upon the operations of the- defunct
firm was obtained from either one or an
other of them. The proofs were present
ed during tho session that the firm had
borrowed money from the International
Banking Company on grain alleged to be
in warehouses; which as a. matter of fact
was not there. Tho grand Jury will take
up the investigation again on Wednesday
next.

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.
At Hillsdale Is the-famous Swiss quartet,
composed of the Raz brothers, which was
present and rendered several selections.
A recitation was given, by Mary Bucher,
duet by Misses Byers and K. 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. Morgan was elected prin
cipal. Mr. TeuBcher leaves the school
with the regrets of patrons and the pupils.
CONTRACTORS RECEIVE MONEY.
Directors Russellvillc District Make
First Payment on Schoolhouse.
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.

high as three cups at a meal, and as
a consequence, was In a moat nervous
condition.
Could not even lift a cup without spill
ing part of It, my hand shook so.
By reading some articles about Postum
Food Coffee, I was led to a knowledge of,
the fact that coffee was the thing that
was- hurting me, so I quit it and took up
the ub? of Postum, and after I found how
to make It right I liked It so well that
I have continued to use It since. I am'
now 2S pounds heavier than" I ever was,
and feel 10 per cent better than I ever
felt ln my llf. I have no sort of desire
to go 'back to. the old-fashioned "coffee.
