12 THE MOROTNG OREGONTAS. TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1903. :l CAN BEAUTY TEAGH? Question Discussed by Board of Education, THE CHARMS OF APPLICANTS Seventy Instructors of Youth Fined $5 Apiece for Not Attending In stitute No Salaries Raised at This Meeting. Can the lady -with the Tvavy blonde hair ind heavenly blue eyes Impart a more marked degree of erudition to the unso phisticated pupil In a given space of time than one of her less favored sisters? Is the teacher with the retrousse nose and vivacious cast of countenance superior in teaching qualities to the lady with the Grecian mold of face? Those questions appeared to form an Important element in the matter of select ing a teacher for the city schools at last evening's meeting of the Board of Educa tion. Color of hair, beauty of face and charm of manner are all very Important factors In the make-up of city school teachers. If last evening's session may be taken as a criterion. This newly exploited theory of rela tionship between phyiognomy and teach ing rrrothods was first developed when the matter of selecting a first-grade teacher to fill a vacancy in one of the schools was brought up for action. "I would like to suggest the name of Miss ." said R. K. Warren, pleasantly, "she Is a fine-looking woman and I favor her and believe she would make a good teacher." "What is your idea of the lady, Mr. Rlglorr queried Chairman Wittenberg. "I roally know very little or nothing concerning her and have not formed an Impression," replied Superintendent Rlg ler. "Does personal beauty have any effect upon you In forming your impressions of lady teachers?" asked Mr. Warren. "It does not," replied the City Superin tendent sharply, bluthlng to the ears. "I should like to suggest the name of Miss ," said Mr. Williams. "She Is a very competent teacher and entitled to the place." Mr. Williams was promptly submitted to a fusillade of questions. 'Can you prove that she is no relative of yours?" asked the chairman. "Has she light hair?" asked Mr. Warren. There was a round of laughter in which Mr. Williams did not Join. "What's the matter with you, Williams; what are you looking so mad about?" asked Chairman Wittenberg, severely. Tvo got no personal Interest in the matter, whatever," said Mr. Williams. Mlssj.Williams, of McMInnvllle, was awarded the appointment, after the dis cussion had been ended. When the matter of filling another va cancy came up. the discussion took quite a different turn, the contention In this in stance being upon the amount of experi ence required. Mr. Wittenberg suggested the name of a teacher having college di plomas and excellent mental qualifications and suggested that the usual rule of re quiring actual experience be dispensed with. To this Mr. Williams- objected. "It 1b one of our rules that teachers shall have actual experience as pupil teach ers or in other schools, and I don't feel that we should make any exception,'' said Mr. Williams. "We can suspend the rules If you wish, since the lady comes so well prepared lo teach. We should select from the very best stock possible," replied Mr. Wit tenberg. "We should stand by our rules," said Mr. Williams. "Gontlemon, do you wish to suspend the rules and let Miss be appointed?" "I gay we can't do such a thing," de clared Mr. Williams. "Well, I say we can," replied Chair man Wittenberg with emphasis. "But I say we can't." returned Mr. Williams. "I am opposed to such action. I don't iay that it is a personal matter with him when Mr. Wittenberg asks this. It Is only out of the ordinary, unusual!" "Oh. no' I have no personal feelings in the appointment whatever," Mr. Wltten fcorg hastened to explain. "I think we had better put this ques tion off until there Is a full attendance of the board, until Mrs. Sltton Is here," said Mr. Beach. "Well, If we get to putting things off you know what that means. Six months and nothing done," said the chairman. "Sot it for the next meeting and we'll try to have a full attendance," answered Mr. Boach. This suggestion was acted upon. The board next proceeded to place a fine of 35 upon each of 70 teachers who failed to attond the Teachers' Institute last June. Superintendent Itlgler said that many of the absentees had presented ex cuses of various kinds for their nonattend ancc It was Mr. Wittenberg's expressed belief that since there would be a loss of 53 for each absentee In the apportion ment they should be fined that amount. The others of the board concurred in this belief. Five principals of schools presented re quests for a raise In the amount of their salary. The documents were promptly "tabled." Permission was granted the Salvation Army to collect food and supplies from the schools for the annual Thanksgiving day dinner given by the Army. It has heon customary for school children to make donations of food and provisions and the schools have alwaS-s been a valu able source of supply to the Salvation Army's charltablo larder. LONESOME LITTLE BOY. Ten-Year-Old Youngster Sent by Himself to Charitable Institution. Ho was a lonesome little boy, and Port land, as seen through the lights at the depot, looked very large to him. All the noise and confusion of the ar rival of the O. R. & X. train bothered his small head a good deal, but he was a plucky youngster, and stuck It out. He was 10-year-old Emmett Kimball, sent irom icxington. Or., to the Boys' and Girls Aid Society. Officer Vcnable was on the lookout for Emmott, but he didn't see him. Emmett heard liim Inquiring of tho conductor for a small boy. 1 guess I'm the little boy you're look ing lor," he piped, looking up courage ously at the tall policeman. So Emmett went to the police station, though he wasn't arrested In the usual way. He said that hismother was dead and that his father was somewhere near the John Day River. He has a sister In Portland, he said. Ho was asked how many broth ers ho had "Oh. I don't know; I couldn't count 'cm all." ho said, with an emphasis on the last word that told the whole story. To Repair Veidler-Street Bridge. Prospects are very favorable for the bridge on Weidler street and Williams avenue being put In good order for travel before long. This structure, which Is 200 feet long and 30 feet In height, has been in n dangerous condition for some time, and has boon blocked to team travel. This has been a great Inconvenience to the public as It Is one of the main Ave nues of traffic on the East Side.-4Clty Englncor Elliott had determined to barri cado It entirely, so as to stop cars run- nlng over it) -but the beginning of this has brought the property owners Inter ested to terms, and. they are anxious to have necessary repairs made. It has been arranged that the property owners -at the four corners of the Intersection of Weld ler street and Williams avenue shall pay $150 each toward such repair: the City & Suburban Railway Company, whose line crosses the bridge, shall pay $200, and that theclty shall contribute $300 or $400 In labor, which will serve to put the bridge in good condition to last for some years. Some of the property owners handed in their contributions yesterday, and as soon as all the money promised has been paid In the work of repair will begin. The structure will be thoroughly overhauled, and new timbers, stringers, etc, will be put in where necessary and a new deck will be laid. The construction of the blockade has been ordered stopped by City Engineer Elliott, and It Is probable that the work of repair will be commenced In a day or two. &L PEES0NAL MENTION. L. L. Ladd, a Seattle lumberman, was In the city yesterday. Francis Donahue, a well-known Che halLs hopgrower, is at the Perkins. Seymour H. Bell,- a prominent Baker City nurseryman, Is at the Portland.

King, general organizer of the Endowment Rank of the Knights of Pythias for the Northwest, returned yes terday from a trip to the Puget Sound district. President S. B. Ii.

Frank Watson, president of the Merchants' National Bank, has returned from Kansas City, where he went afte'r attending the meeting of the National Bankers' Association at San Francisco. Mr. Watson says that there is a disposi tion among the bankers of tho country to protest against any financial legislation by the present session of Congress. A. A. Norrls, of Chicago, vice-president of the Smith-Barnes Piano Company, Is In Portland on business. Mr. Norrls was formerly a church organist and opera conductor of note, but for the past 12 or 15 years has been engaged in the manu facture and sale of pianos. At one time he was organist at Professor David Swing's church in Chicago, and previously acted in the same capacity In some of the leading churches of Boston. From 1879 until 1885, Mr. Norrls conducted the Gil bert & Sullivan and other operatic ven tures. He tells many interesting anecdotes of his long musical career,, during which time he was associated with some of the greatest artists in the musical profession. "I knew Nordica when she was a cloak modei in Jordan & Marsh's dry goods store in Boston, twenty-odd years ago," said Mr. Norrls to a reporter yesterday. She was getting a salary of $10 per week then and I have to pinch myself every time I stop to think that this same cloak model, her name, you know, is Lillian Norton, now commands as high as $1500 a night and Is one of the world's queens of song. "In 'the old Jordan & Marsh days, she came to me, I was organist at the church of which she was a member, and asked for the position of leading soprano in our choir. She had a fine though uneducated voice, and was given the place at"$l50 per year. I assure you she was glad to get It, for she was very poor In those days. One night shortly afterward she sang at a little musical which our choir was giv ing. At the close of her solo a gentleman came forward from the audience and pre sented her with a check for $1000. The gift 'carried with it the supination that she was to go abroad and study voice It afterward developed that the check came from. Mr. Jordan one of her em ployers, who was also a member of our church, and. much interested in young Miss Norton's singing. She took the money and went abroad. She had a hard time of It, and was over 30 years of age before fame came to her, but since tnat time her way has been a triumphant prog ress. That's an old story, however. The part which the public generally knows Is that the divine Nordica was once a $10 cloak model and a choir singer at $150 per year." NEW YORK, Nov. 9. The following Northwest people are registered at New York hotels: From Portland Savoy: It. Hlrsch and wife. From Walla Walla Park Avenue: J. W. Langdon. From Tacoma Navarre: D. I. Smith. From Seattle Everett: F. C. Lawrence and wife. Grand "Union: W. Wilkinson. Park Avenue: C C. Lathrop. Cherokee. Indians Rich in Lands. TAHLEQUAH. I. T., Nov. 9. The re ports of the Dawes Commission and the attorneys of the Cherokee Nation show that there are about 4.420,070.13 acres of land subject to allotment In the Cherokee Nation. From this must be deducted reservations of one acre for each coun try school, for cemeteries, and small reservations for mission schools and new towns along railroads. The allottable land is valued at $13,133,000. There Is now be ing allotted to each citizen $325.60 worth of this land. The rolls show that there will be 40,000 Cherokees ?n the final rolls. The per capita share of each, not de ducting the reservations above men tioned, would be $32S.32, leaving a surplus of $2.72 in land dud each citizen. Witnesses to Murder Found. SALT LAKE, Utah, Nov. 9. Sheriff Emery has discovered two witnesses whom, he says, will syear that they saw Mrs. Aurora Hodge murder James X. Ryan, the aged merchant, for whose al-r leged murder the pretty 19-year-old bride will be tried next week. It has been the theory of both police and public that Mrs. Hodge confessed to the murder to shield the real murderer, who was supposed to be the lover of the girl. F. Thompson will swear that he heard five shots fired at Ryan. Mrs. Hodge says she fired only once, hitting him In the center of the forehead. New Daily Trade Sheet.

On Sixth street little more than one block from the Union Depot James Var ney, a logger from Lewis JAlver, was robbed of $50 by two strong-arm men be fore 11 o'clock last evening. It was the old story of the logger with the roll, the keen-sighted rounders who snotted him In a Burnslde-street saloon, the men behind the post, the gun and the Inevitable transfer of the legal tender. , This time the highwaymen were more dar- ing than most of their kind. While dozens of people, many hacks and 'busses were passing on their way to the depot, the men relieved him of the greater part of his month's wages, with which he had planned to have a good time In Portland. But now the robbers will have the good time, while Varney goes back to the camp a, sadder but a wiser man in the ways of the Norh End, Varneys story as told to the detectives was that he had spent the evening around rutt."".",": "bJ,r"": knowtnTt he had been watched? an 1 w sure that he had never .flashed his rolL" . . ., ,, v-. -'ti...... near as he can tell it was between Gllsan nw.

Behind the telegraph pole was a man who, suddenly stepping In front of Var ney, caught the surprised logger under the chin with his crooked arm. In the other hand he held a pistol which he was careful that the victim should see. Out from behind somewhere Varney cannot tell where exactly came another man. The two worked , together very nicely. While No. 1 held Varney in the style In vogue among high-class strong arm artists. No. 2 made a quick frisk of his pockets. Then the two dlsapepared and Varney appeared shortly after at the police station. Detective Hartman was placed upon the case, and Varney was told to remain In town until further de velopments. "DYSPEPTIC DOGMAS." Useless Things to Depend On for Gopd of Future. PORTLAND, Nov. S. (To the Editor.) A gentleman In New Jersey writes a book. Being a theologian, he does what he Is paid to do: He writes a book on a theologlc theme. The Oregonlan, be ing a newspaper, refers to this event. as is its business, being paid for the news It can furnish its subscribers. So far, good. A reader of said news item writes a letter commending said effort on the part of the author, but also indulges in "showing up" the heathen; that Is, those ' nations who do not draw their theological lui'oi iium uic Biuuc scuuui. xiiu uuuer-' signed objected to this abuse of heathens and their efforts, as It dpes not prove anything about the book In question. He also regards this comparison morally wrong, unless undoubted data can bo produced. Now comes a second writer In last Tuesday's paper, pretending to answer the writer's first letten. Needless to say, not one point was answered, though much ground Is covered. Knowing, as I do, that the editor Is not a champion of Thomas Paine, I cannot refrain from de fending this brave man against such an attack. A man who loves freedom as did he, who sits by the campflre writing "The Crisis" for his disheartened com patriots when gloom reigned In the Con tinental Army, is no commonplace man. "These are the times that try men's souls." Is that shallow? The British bishop, Landhoff, said to Paine: "There is a philosophical sublimity In some of your ideas when speaking of the Creator of the universe." Paine was not a per fect man, nelmer are any of us, but let us not magnify his shortcomings. Mr. Lathrop docs not like freedom. I am afraid that theologians would hesi tate to defend his position. An argu ment based solely on Sunday school phi losophy Is evidently limited In Its re sources, however beneficial Its moral pre cepts may prove. If freedom Is not what we want, then Washington lived in vain and Loncoln and Garrison, Lafayette and all soldiers In all times that fonght for it, many of whom died for it, Luther and all the subsequent reformers were then contending for a wrong. Hegel held that freedom was the aim of civilization. Jesus offered his testimony, too "The truth shall make you free." Bondage, mental or political, has ever been advo cated by tyrants, political or spiritual. I believe that no growth can take place without fretdom. Morality and virtue are not negative qualities. If they were, the inmates of the penitentiaries would be our most moral class, 'for they are denied the chance of practicing the grossest immoralities. When man feels he Is free, his life becomes one of per petual choice. He will either follow the divine Impulse of his heart and con- science, or he will follow the desires of his animal Instincts. He then grows In wisdom, strength and godliness In ex act proportion to his success in con sciously obeying his best Impulses. .If we cannot agree on the essential ele ments of Christianity, how can we agree on the details? Mr. Lathrop states that this is no Tom Paine country. I state likewise that this is no Ponathan Ed wards country. When an immigrant lands at Ellis Island, the government officials examine him as to his fitness for entering this land of freedom. He is not asked whether he is a follower of Paine or Edwards; only as to his soundness of body and mind. Is he healthy? Is he moral? Now, Paine, and Edwards both taught morality, though they did not agree on the relative virtue of church dogmas. Paine, we are told, was not a man of much learning. True; neither were the 12 fishermen whom the Galll lean chose as his messengers. The question of morality Is not one only of learning, though learning Is an aid. and knowledge a power for good. Mr. Lathrop and tho writer have evi dently studied what little science they have crossed In different schools. I havo never learned that whenever anything is free it Is stagnant and worthless. When atoms, or rather molecules, are fine, as In a crystal, there Is stagnation. Only In the case of liberated molecules could a rose grow, rala form and fall, or vege tation decay and nourish a new crop. It requires more rashness than scientists make use of to heedlessly accuse a roan of believing In Just those things he rejects. I state deliberately that I do not believe in miracles. All events are in accordance with law. No grain of dust ever moved a millionth part of a millimetre except through the operation of natural law. We may not always understand the law 'so as to account for all events, or phenomena, but this Is our fault. All this was off the original point in question. My contention was, and Is, this: that when a theologian writes a book on a subject Vhlch few. if any, but theologians care for, on such themes as the incarnation. It Is unnecessary for a partisan to seize the opportunity to abuse all mankind who bellqve differ ently. Much of the unbapplness in non Christia'h countries referred to by Mr. Lathrop Is undoubtedly true. Those peo ple may be even worse than that. How ever. I fall to see how that helps the gridiron dogma. The cussedness of tho heathen does not prove a Christlike Character of church countries. We find a few black spots there, too. V'e question is this: Do we owe our present progress, as Mr. Lathrop would HUR-ON TORIK We carry a full line of these glasses and great advantage in naving your eyea fitted by us Is that a guarantee goes with every correction. fVDnr.nW flPTIPA I CC , uit.uun s nvni. v 173 Tourth St. Y.
