SHOW MUCH VIGOR
An Enthusiastic Meeting of
Carnival Promoters. A
PLEA FOR PERSONAL -EFFORT
Multnomah Club Members "Will Bend
Every Energj to Make Approach-18-
Festivities the Most HI
Jarlouij Seen in Portland.
The Multnomah gymnasinm room was
crowded, last night In answer to a call
by President Prael of the Multnomah
Club. The object of the meeting was to
discuss the coming1 carnival. September
14 to 26 Inclusive, and to urge each mem
ber of the club to assist in every way pos
sible in making theaffair a success. In
calling the meeting to order President
Prael-, among other things, said:
-This meeting has been called, as you
all know, to boost the carnival, which Is
to be given under the auspices and for
the financial benefit of this club; in
other words, to enlist the services and
energy of our members toward making
the enterprise a success.
"With the exception of the purchase of
our field and the building of our club
house, this is the most extensive enter
prise the club has ever undertaken, and
the prospects of success are fair, but with
a little more push on the part of the
members there is an opportunity to pay
off a large part of the club's indebtedness
and put it in easy flnandlal circumstances.
At the present time the revenues from
dues and initiation fees are hardly large
enough to maintain the club, and we
must take advantage of the present cir
cumstances to Increase our membership.
Therefore, let every member consider
himself a committee of one to bring In
at least two new members before the
carnival is over. We have club property
which cost upwards of 560,000, on which
we have paid 515,000, besides paying In
terest and taxes promptly. We have big
obligations to meet, and we must make
our carnival a success."
President Prael's address was warmly
applauded.
C. F. Swigert, chairman of the sub
scription committee, was Introduced, and
spoke for some time, impressing upon
those present the necessity of united ef
fort in order to make the carnival a suc-
cess, and to maintain, the reputation of"
the club as an organization that stands
for and gives first-class entertainments.
He reported that the merchants' of the
city were responding quite liberally in the
way of subscriptions, but that there was
yet much work in this line that should
and must be done to make the carnival a
financial success. t -
D. J. Moore, in charge of the booths
and exhibits, followed in an enthusiastic
short talk in which he said that Indus
trial Street at the coming carnival would
be the best thing of the kind ever seen
in Portland; that many of the merchants
of the city had already taken space, but
that many others should do so. He
closed by asking that every member of
the club act as a committee of one to
assist in asking the merchants to make
an exhibit.
O. F. Paxton was next Introduced, and
during his twenty minutes' address he
was frequently interrupted with applause.
He reviewed the past enterprises under
taken by Ihe cluband pointed with pride
to the fact that each of them had been
a decided success, and that the coming
carnival would be the crowning event in
the history of the club. He dwelt upon
the beautiful and costly spectacular pro
duction, "When Knighthood Was in
Flower," declaring that it alone would
be worth twice the price of admission.
Director-General Bentley, who is work
ing nlgHt and day for the success of the
carnival, and who keeps in close touch
with every detail of the coming event,
was called upon by President Prael, and
addressed the meeting upon carnival mat
ters in general. His remarks were warm
ly applauded. Among other things, he
said:
Mr. Prael and the officers of this club have '
Been fit to call this general meeting of the
club. In my opinion It Is the right thing at
the right time. "The Multnomah Club has un
dertaken the largest project It has ever under
taken, except, perhaps, that -work which was
done when the new building and grounds were
purchased. 'That work was well done. Tour
building .stands today, and, with its grounds. Is
the best-appointed athletic club in the United
i States. We have no less an authority on this
than the famous writer on athletics, Mr.
Walter Camp.
The Multnomah Club has undertaken thU
exposition and carnival, which is now well
amdtr way, as a means of raising money to
apply on its debt. This debt Is not a large
one not nearly as large as it might be but
it is a. tremendous burden to carry, and the
club will bo hampered for a long time if it
waits to pay It oft" in the ordinary way with
dues and entertainments. This Carnival must
yield to the Multnomah Club a large sum of
money to apply on its debt.
Personally I was drawn Into this, first, by a
desire to help the Multnomah Club in a email
capacity as one of the committeemen. As
time went on and I attended the meetlncs of
the committees faithfully, the honor of being
the vice-president of the Carnival Association
and the managing director of the Carnival was
thrust upon me. I can truthfully say that it
was thrust upon me. I have other business
to attend to, and I can ill afford to spend the
time and energy -necessary to do my part in
this undertaking. Tlmo has gone .on, and I
find myself with a bjg load on my shoulders.
I am not complaining of that load; I shall not
try to shirk it; but I need help; I need It
from every member of the Multnomah Club.
We, are going to benefit the city as probably
no -other exposition has ever done. We have
cheap railroad rates; we have spent a large
amount of money in advertising, and I have
every assurance that we will have a large out-of-town
attendance.
The second thing I want Is to have the mem
bers help this committee, and also to help fill
the balance of the exhibitors space. Manyof
you. are the heads of Arms; some of you are
.employed by our largest houses. Now, you
' must get in and get those houses to put In an
exhibit make our Industrial street an unquali
fied success.
The next thing I want to impress upon the
members Is, we want you to turn out In our
cpenlng parade on Monday night. The
parade wllltart inside the gates of the Car
nival grounds. It will be a: short parade, mere
ly going to "Washington street, down to Third,
on Third to Morrison, and thence back to our
grounds. If any of you have white duck trous
ers, we want you to wear them. If you have
any other grotesque or striking suits, we want
you to wear them. Anything that is unique,
.put It on It don't make any difference what
it Is, Just so it will amupe or edify the crowd.
If lyou don't feel like dressing up. Just come
the way you are, but turn out and help to
swell the parade by one. .
The fourth appeal I want to make to you is
the Effect you can make upon the business
community. We want you to attend the meet
ings of the committees, and assist this club
by talking up the Carnival, and by acting It,
by advertising it In every way you possibly
can. Make your friends decorate; make them
turn out next Monday night; make the open
ing night of this Carnival the banner nighi of
any exposition or anything" of the kind that
was ever held' in the City .of Portland. It is
my ambition to turn out 20.000 people-for the
opening night.
Gentlemen, if you will do this, , the success
of the Carnival is assured. We have good at
tractions; we are going to give a splendid
t"crnlval and Exposition, one of the best that
to ever given on the Pacific Coast. I thank
you for your attention.
J. N. Teal. Dr. Cauthorn, W. H. Cho
pin, and others followed with enthusiast
ic addresses, after which President Prael
adjourned the meeting. In appreciation
of the addresses a.nd to show their en
thusiasm, the younger members of the
club arose from their chairs and made
the hall ring with Multnomah's yell.
There will be meetings of the com
mittees every night this week, and Director-General
Bentley expects a fine at
tendance. Professor Krohn, who has Mr." Hutch
ins spectacular production in charge. Is
busy with rehearsals. He yet needs a
number of young ladies between 16 anci
20, to take part, and desires those who
can assist, to meet with those already
engaged, at the Multnomah gymnasium
at 2:30 this afternoon. Professor Krohn
is very enthusiastic over the produc
tion, and says it will be the best thing
of the kind ever seen In Portland.
WAS .rJAJBY SI AKVED?
Matron
of Crittenton
rested
Home Is Ar-
Because she is alleged to have starved
"and "cruelly treated the Infant child of
Miss Carrie Bowman, the matron of the
Florence Crittenden Refuge Home lias
Deen arrestee. "Assault" is the technical
charge, but behind this legal phrase is a
story of alleged neglect and cruelty told
by the young mother. The matron, Mrs.'
iTances Brown, will have a hearing in
Justice Beld's Court today. ;
Mrs. Brown not only aenles the charges
which have been preferred against her by
Miss .Bowman, but she shows visitors
through the establishment, where they
can see rosy-cheeked youngsters for
themselves. She declares there is noth
ing serious In the statements of the
young mother.
"Starvation," is what Miss Bowman
says of the treatment of her child. When
she left the baby In the hands of the
matron, it was plump and healthy, she
says. When she visited the Home again
she found it a mere skeleton. She asked
that.lt be given Into her care, and upon
the refusal of the matron, the agonized
mother attempted to steal it away
through the nursery window. Caught In
the act by one of the nurses of the insti
tution, she was forced to relinquish the
child after her hands were about its little
body.
Miss Bowman's child was born in the
Crittenden Home, East Gllsan and East
Thirtieth streets, three weeks ago. The
girl came from Corvallis, Or., a few weeks
previously. She Is now rooming at 1001
'Corbett street. Believing that the child
would be given to her, she went to the
Home a week ago last Sunday, accom
panied by her mother and a nurse.
The story which Miss Bowman tells of
the condition of the child 1b almost un
believable: "I got my dear, little, sick, half-starved
baby last Sunday a week ago. I went out
there with my mother and a nurse girl
and when they told me that I could not
have my ehlld I threatened to have the
Sheriff come and aid me. After three
hours of waiting and arguing, and after a
desperate attempt by men to escape with
the baby by lifting it from the nursery
window, the matron, Mrs. Brown, finally
allowed me to take the child. But 'she
insisted that it should go away with me
on but one condition. She said that wher
ever we should take it the place where it
was kept should be quarantined. They
claimed that there was diphtheria in the
Home and that it was dangerous to re
move my child until all danger frbm
spreading the disease was past.
"I consented to this. I would have done
anything to get the baby. I am Its
mother; why shouldn't I? But I knew the
diphtheria scare was all made up. They
never had any diphtheria there. Flags
were out when we went there, but they
admitted themselves that only two or
three children were affected with a slight
breaking out, and that the patients were
vkept in the dormitory upstairs, apart
from the other inmates of the Home. My
baby was downstairs in the nursery
with the other babies and I don't see why
It should be exposed there.
"Finally, I thought that they were keep
ing me, and I told mother that I had a.
notion to break the dopr and take the
baby. They had the door locked and the
head nurse was guarding it. I made a
dash at the door, but did not try to break
it in, because I knew I could be arrested
for that.
"Then I watched my chance, when
mother and Mrs. Brown were having it
up and down. I went outside by the
nursery window whero I knew the babies
were kept. The window was open and I
intended to reach in and lift the baby out.
I could have done this, but the nurse was
there ahead of me. I had Just got my
hands on the baby when she came run
ning over to the bed and stopped me.
"Whereat last they gave me the child,
I could scarcely believe my eyes when I
looked at my baby's face. ' When I had
left It but one week before, the child
was well and fat. Now it was a mere
skeleton. It looked as if almost dead.
Its little hands were shriveled up and It
was eo weak that It could scarcely move.
I was horrified.
"But It was when we got home and un
dressed the baby that we saw the worst.
The bones were almost protruding from
the hips and the heels. Under the arms
were evidences of neglect and the fingers,
toes and groins were actually sticky. The
baby had been both starved and neglected.
I don't think they had given it a bath for
days. Its skin was raw in places and so
tender that we could not bathe it with
cloths. We were afraid it was going to
die and sent for Dr. Mead. The doctor
came and treated It, but said he feared
the baby would never live. To bathe it
we had to place it in a sheet filing and
let It down Into the water. The flesh
could not bear to be touched. .
"About 1 o'clock Monday, the next day
after rescuing the baby from the Home,
I thought the child was dying. It straight
ened out and appeared to be almost gone.
I telephoned for Dr. Mead and he thought
the baby was dying, too, and notified the
undertaker. Finally, after several hours,
the baby rallied and has Improved some
what since, but it Is a question yet be
tween life or death."
Mrs. A. R. Rlggs the president of the
institution, makes light of the charges
made by the young mother.
"There was not a death of a baby In
our charge for six consecutive years, and
the death rate in tho Home since it was,
founded, about 15 years ago, has beeiv
unusually light. This fact alone should
make such a charge as Carrie Bowman's
appear unreasonable," said she.

CROWD AT CANEMAH PARK
United Artisans Have Annual Picnic
on Labor Day.
A large portion of the Labor day crowd
was attracted to Canemah Park yester
day, the occasion being the annual picnic
of the United Artisans. The arrange
ments were in charge of Montavllla As
sembly and were carried out udder the
direction of a committee consisting of J.
W. Mills. Edward Gill, Emll Kling and
Brandon Satterlee.
Owing to the rain, the morning pro
grammo was dispensed with and the fes
tivities began at 2:S0 Tvith a ball game
between the Vancouver and Oregon City
teams.
The game looked good until tho seventh
Inning, and the teams were putting, up
an even contest. At this fatal Juncture,
however, the Oregon City aggregation
hung up such an array of scores that the
Vancouvers never had a -look In during
the remainder of the game, the final score
being 8 to 2 In favor of the former. Fol

PIANO LETTER
No. 1.
To the pub.lic: This Is the first of a
series of weekly piano letters which we
will present for an indefinite time.
They are intended to guide the plano
buyer to a successful purchase by edu
cating him, not only in the matter of
mechanical construction, hut In the
matter of trade ethics from every I
standpoint. No matter whether it Is
your intention to buy in the near fu
ture, or to postpone your purchase for
an indefinite period, you will profit by
reading these letters. We propose to
deal from week to week on "prices,"
"installments," "interest," "the true
meaning of the words 'standard make,' "
"buying for cash," "buying on time,'
"special sales," "piano actions," "good
tone," etc., etc In fact, we propose
to so fortify the piano-buyer with facts
as to enable him to make a judicious
selection and wise business arrange
ment on any wareroom floor - in the
United States. Buying a piano is an
important vent So important is it
and so much is there involved, that
most people find themselves wholly un
equal to the task. In all the agony of
doubt as to where to go and what to
buy, they go from place to place trying
scores of instruments and listening to
scores of arguments from silver
tongued salesmen until their purchase
is finally consummated through sheer
exhaustion rather than - sound judg
ment The purpose of these letters is
to help these doubting Thomases. . ,
In conclusion, we want to vouch fon
the reliability and truth of every state
ment hereafter to be made in these let
ters. It will be our aim to be honest
and Impartial In very phase of the busi
ness we may treat with. Every state
ment made will be born of a desire to
elevate a trade that is devoted to the
propagation of the most elevating of
all the divine arts music. Very truly

PORTLAND, Sept. 7. (To the Editor.)
There is nothing like going away from
home to find the news about one's own
state or locality; for instance, in the New
York Tribune of June 1, 1903, the follow
ing appears: "Joseph Bashaw died re
cently at .Salem, OT., aged 114. - He was a
soldier under Napoleon I from 1806 to 1S15,
and fought at Waterloo. He drove an ox
team to Oregon In 1847." I have exercised
considerable diligence In trying to find
the pioneers of Oregon" for a number of
years, but this person Is one that I never
before -heard of, and if any mention has
been made of him In any of the Oregon
papers It has escaped my notice. If any
person knowing Mr. Bashaw will kindly
send me his name, I shall be greatly
obliged. GEORGE H. HIMES,

Prisoner Attempt Suicide.
With a strip of a bed sheet for a noose,
Joseph Millbar, a prisoner in the -City
Jail, attempted to commit suicide early
Sunday morning. He was found by the
jailer when about to expire from, suffoca
tion. As Chief Hunt has frequently lec
tured the officers about giving the public
any information on , what went on Inside
his palace, the news of the attempt was
carefully suppressed.
Millbar was given 15 days for being
drunk several days ago. pn Sunday he
became despondent and nervous, and
hardly knowing what he was about, he
tied a strip of a sheet to -one of the bars
,of his cell and suspended himself from
the Improvised scaffold. It required the
efforts of a physician for two hours to
resuscitate the man.
