ANOTHER MAP OF UNITED STATES
! An Indianian Produces an Inlaid Table "Which, at the "World's Fair
Will Correctly Show 'Each State and Territory in the Union.
ST. IX3T7IS, Jan. 23. Special corre
spondence) Another unique map o
the United States has been designed
and constructed for exhibition, at the
IWorid's alr.
This time the map forms the top for a
fjjan&eome table, and Is the "work of Ma
rion Plory, a citizen of Logansport, Ind.
The "work of r"gfri"g the table necessi
tates a great expenditure of time, and
more than a little skill and research -were
required. The map Is geographically cor
rect, -and the surface Is made up of hun
Oreds of different kinds of -woods from
t-very state and territory in the Union.
It la all Inlaid. Each is represented by
blocks of -wood of certain species charac
teristic ofhe state. The rivers and
boundaries of the states are marked 'with
different woods, and so skillfully have the
pieces been Joined that the surface ap

mense board. It Is highly polished, and
the exhibit will be a feature in Indiana's
exhibit in the palace of varied industries.
Manuscripts of Famous Authors.
Indiana's claims to being the literary
center of the United States will bo pushed
at the World's Fair. The state commis
sion has arranged to obtain the original
manuscripts of many of her famous au
thors. These will embrace numerous of
the earlier poems by James Whitcomb
JOley, including those that brought him
fame. There will also be the original
pages written by General Lew Wallace,
JIaurlce Thompson, Charles Major, Booth
Tarklngton and other literary Indlanans.
Down in a Coal Mine.
Down in a coal mine, -underneath the
ground, the visitor to the World's Fair
may wander and explore to his heart's
content. He may, at his luxurious ease,
penetrate drifts and tunnels of great
lengths and see the miners delve In the
ground and bring forth the black dia
monds that have lain for countless ages
awaiting the demands of civilization.
He may see the coal as it lies In Its
natural state; he may see it loaded" into
cars In the mines and hauled by mules to
the shaft, where by the latest machinery
it will be hoisted to an up-to-date coal
breaker, and may witness the breaking,
washing and sizing of coaL Every pro
cess of mining will be shown, and all of
the methods for transporting the coal will
be exhibited.
This exhibit, which will be one of the
many Interesting features of the mining
gulch of 12 acres at the World's Fair, Is
being installed by the coal operators of
the Pennslyvanla anthracite fields, and
the manufacturers of mining machinery
and equipment.
The coal breaker will be the only part

WILLIAM J. BRYAN AT
Clashes "With a Philadelphia Orator on Question of
(New York Tribune, January 22.)
William J. Bryan cut loose from his set
Bpeech on "Peace" last night at the Hol
land Society dinner at the Waldorf-Astoria,
and in reply to a vigorous attack
made by ex-Assistant Attorney-General
James M. Beck, of Philadelphia, against
the menacing and dangerous attitude of
labor leaders and labor organizations,
replied in a most dramatic and sensa
tional manner, denouncing the heads
of stock-watering concerns and men who
use money in elections to corrupt the
voters.
It all came at the last of the speaking,
after Mr. Bryan had devoted himself for
half an hour to peace principles as exem
plified by the establishment of the peace
tribunal at The Hague. Then, as his
hearers began to wonder If he would let
Mr. Beck's challenge go unnoticed, Mr.
Bryan turned to Mr. Beck, and, raising
bis voice to a pitch that swept it through
the ballroom like the breeze before a
storm, bo said:
"When my friend here suggests a dan
ger from labor organizations I wish to
call attention to other and greater dan
gers. Greater than any danger than can
come from organized Jabor Is the stock
Jobbing and stock-watered organizations
that plunder the people and defy the
laws of the land. (Applause.) There is
far less danger from labor organizations
than there is from use of money by
unscrupulous men in buying and selling
franchises. The use of money In elec
tions is a greater menace to this country
than any dangor from labor organiza
tions. (Applause.)
"I saw at Rome a great arena whore
centuries ago brave but helpless men and
women were led forth to die at the on
slaught of wild beasts. They were the
early Christian martyrs. They knelt and

Sufficient to save them from annihilation,

It was the power of love. I found in
Russia an apostle of peace. In Russia,
where there are at the command of the
Czar a million armed soldiers, the gov-,

culation of the writings of this man of

BUILDING A HUGE RAFT.
604,000 Feet of Piling Will
Towed to San Francisco.
Be
Few not connected with the lumbering
business have any idea of the vast
amount of work and time expended on
preparing ono or the huge cigar-shaped
timber rafts occasionally towed from the
Columbia River to San Francisco by the
Robertson Raft Company, of that city,
nor of the vast amount of timber they
contain. A. W. Pooler, a bookkeeper In
the employ of that company, was in the
city yesterday. He has been stationed
at Stella, on the Columbia, for the past
year superintending the building of a
huge raft, which was successfully towed
to San Francisco last August, and has
Just completed another which cannot be
started till about June, when the reason
of storms is past. Mr. Pooley was bid
ding his numerous friends good-bye as he
Is to return to San Francisco at once, to
his great joy, for he is tired of a life in
the woods.
The raft Just completed is about the
tame size as the one sent away last
August. It Is 655 feet in length. 45 feet
In depth, and 53 feet breadth of beam
and draws 25 feet of water. It contains
(04,000 feet of piling and Is bound and
fastened together by 110 tons of chains.
Including the large chain which runs the
entlro length through the center, and to
Which the "tow-line" is to be attached.
A crew of five men is all that is neces.
jary with the aid of the huge derrick and
tackle provided to pile this vast amount
of timber in position in the cradle In
which the raft is built, and fasten It se
curely together. There are no sawlogs
nor sbips spars In the raft, only piling
from 30 feet in length upwards, none of
the sticks- being more than IS inches in
diameter at the butt. There are a number
of piles 130 feet long and just one which
Is 140 feet long and only IS Inches at the
butt, which Is a remarkably fine specimen
of the Douglas fir, and will probably be
utilized as a flag pole.
The towing of such a raft to an Fran
structure, and will rise about SO feet. The
rest of the exhibit will be under the
ground. Connected with the breaker will
be a novel electric railroad that will fol
low the main tunnel, and the visitor may
take a round trip via this novel route,
and on his underground journey he may
get a practical knowledge of everything
pertaining to coal mining as it is carried
on in the famous Pennslyvanla districts.
The tunnel in its entire length will be
walled with blocks of coal taken from
the Pennsylvania mines. The timbers will
be real, and will show exactly how the
"roof" of a mine is propped. There will
be rooms leading off from the main tun
nel where the visitor may see real miners
In their mining) apparel, carrying the
smoky little lamps in their caps; at work
drilling and preparing to blast. Air shafts
will appear at intervals to insure at all
times a plentiful supply of , fresh air.
Much of the route will be brilliantly illu
minated with electric lights, but certain
sections will be lighted only by torches
and the lamps that the miners carry.
A unique feature of the exhibit will be
a restaurant deep down in the ground.
Not a ray of natural light will ever pen
trate this eating-place, and the only light
will be from torches and miners' lamps'.
The waiters will be dressed In mining
garb.
Prizes for Farmers.
Two farmers in Noble County, Okla.,
will receive free transportation to St.
Louis and return during the World's Fair.
The St. Louis & San Francisco Railroad
has offered the transportation as an ad
ditional prize to the farmers exhibiting
the best half bushel of white and yellow
corn at the farmers' institute to be held
In Perry. Okla.
This Horse Has Horns..
Snyder, the biggest horse in the world
and one of the most wonderful animal
freaks, will be exhibited at the World's
Fair. The horse Is a Percheron gelding,
and Is owned by Charles H. Gamble and
H. K. Williams, of New York City. He
weighs 2700 pounds. Snyder Is a beautiful
dark chestnut in color, with not a mark
on him except on his forehead. This and
two one-inch horns, which are growing
out of his temples, are his remarkable
features. The horns cannot be accounted
for. The white star, or puzzle, is in the
form of the fore quarters of a horse or
deer, showing the legs, head and horns
and the curve of the neck. It has also
been likened to a map of South America.
A man of average height when standing
at Snyder's head only reaches his nose,
and when he Is groomed It Is necessary to
use a stepladder.
Eggs of Amazing Proportions.
An egg 12 Inches long and 10 Inches In
diameter, with a shell nearly one-quarter
of an Inch thick, will be exhibited among
the treasures of natural history by the
Government at the World's Fair. It Is
while they punish those who circulate his
writings, they do not dare to lay their
hands on the man himself.
"We cannot bring peace by attacking
labor organizations. Give labor organiza
tions credit for what they have done for
America and American citizenship. They
have elevated that citizenship. They
have rendered the ballot more sacred by
bringing to this country the Australian
ballot. Is it degrading for labor to ask
for a reduction in the hours of labor? We
love our children and do all we can to
elevate them. If we drive the laborer
from the bench to the bed, what chance
lthere for him to assist In the spiritual
and moral elevation of his children?"
(Applause.)
Raising his voice to Its maximum of
vibrancy, the speaker turned to the spe
cially Invited guests and said:
"A man who is fit to die for his country
ought to be permitted to live for It."
Instantly there was a thunder of ap
plause by men who sprang to their feet
and cheered and waved handkerchiefs.
Not every one got up. There were many
who sat with closely shut jaws and red
faces, and who looked defiance at the
speaker, just as if they would like to have
a chance to say something themselves.
"Why not give these men the protec
tion that justice demands?" continued Mr.
Bryan. "Why not deal with them as
brethren? Go and see their children In
the factories. Children dwarfed In mind
and soul. And yet these children are
made in the Image of God, just as your
children are, and you must love them.
Just as you love your own children."
(Great applause, and cries of "That's"
right!")
Hero Mr. Bryan paused and made as if
about to stop speaking. Immediately
there were cries for him to go on.
"I didn't have much chance to see you
in the last campaign," said he. "You
thought wo were radical. We were not
We simply asked for that which we
thought to be right. Beware the radicals
who come after us the men who will
not be content to stop the wrong, but
who will demand that you go back and
restore the wrong."
This ended Mr. Bryan's apparently un
premeditated outburst an outburst doubt
less prompted by Mr. Beck's brilliant ar
raignment of what he deemed to be an
over-reaching and wicked spirit of organ
ized labor. This part of Mr. Beck's
speech was as follows:
"If I do not misread history, the prosper
lty of the Dutch people was founded upon
a principle which is vitally essential to
the progress and happiness of any people,
and that is the inalienable right of every
cisco Is a sort of gamble, but tinder ordi
nary circumstances is a fair risk, and
If successfully accomplished the com
pany reaps a reward for the speculation.
Mr. Pooley has no intention of coming
back to Stella, and takes away with him
a photo of the camp there when there was
snow on the ground to show his employers
what hardships he endured. This rafting
business is likely to be confined to the
Columbia River as long as the supply of
tall, slim timber holds out. on account of
there being no teredos In fresh water.
An attempt was made to build such rafts
on Puget Sound, but as they often have to
remain in the water some time before it
is safe to start them for San Francisco
the teredo played smash with the piles,
while in the Columbia they can be left
as long as desired In safety.
NO LONGER CHURCH SCHOOL.
University of Chicago Has Outgrown
Its Denominationalism.
CHICAGO. Jan. 27. "The University of
Chicago is no longer a Bptlst Institu

dent Harper announced to the senior
class today that the University had out
grown its denominationalism. He declared
that in the nature of its faculty, its stu

Most of the students and most of the

purchased In Paris by Dr. E. W. True, of
the Smithsonian Institution. Specimens
of these eggs are very rare, having sold
in London as high as $1000. Compared
with other eggs, some idea of its im
mensity may be had. It will hold the con
tents of six ostrich eggs, or 14S hens' eggs,
or 30,000 humming birds' eggs. Little is
known of the birds from which these
eggs come. Most of the eggs are found
in the sands and swamps in the southern
part of Madagascar. One specimen was
found afloat on the ocean, after a hurri
cane, bobbing serenely up and down with
the waves.

HIS BEST
Labor Unions.
man to work for whom he pleases and at
what wage he pleases, and to enjoy freely
the fruits of his toil. This principle Is
in some need of vindication in this coun
try and at this hour. Man was brought
into the world to work. It Is not only his
burden, it is his right, and any form of
social tyranny which contravenes this
right Is infinitely mischievous.
"In vain are written constitutions, with
their paper guarantee of life, liberty and
pursuit of happiness, if the right of the
humblest citizen to earn his bread in the
sweat of his brow is thus denied. Such
right Is In no respect Inconsistent with the
right of labor to organize. The Dutch
people had their labor guilds, and they
fittingly emphasized the dignity of their
several occupations. But if any labor
guild In Holland should have attempted
to prescribe fealty to It as an organization
as a condition of the right to labor, the
workmen of Holland would have risen
against this offensive form of tyranny as
readily as against that of the Duke of
Alva.
"The tyranny of the boycott In its at
tempt to club the free labor of our land
Into slavish submission to a lapor oli
garchy has been strongly Illustrated with
in a few months in the City of Chicago,
where its people were not even given per
mission to bury their dead unless they
employed a union driver on a union
hearse. One citizen of Chicago showed
that he had somewhat of the old Dutch
hatred of tyranny, for, with his dead
child in an ordinary carriage, he eat upon
the driver's seat with a rifle across his
lap and vowed that he would kill the first
man who stopped his free progress to
his dead child's grave.
"To the founders of the Dutch Republic,
moeover, the right of every man to enjoy
the fruit of his labor, whether consider
able or Inconsiderable, was a basic social
condition. Thero was no envy or hatred
of wealth I cannotbut think that the
commercial prosperity?f Holland was due
in large measure to the good feeling be
tween all classes of society. Its people did
divide on religious and political questions,
but never on the principle of meum and
tuum. Today, however, wo are tojd on
eminent authority that a struggle i3 on
between the "plain people and organized
wealth." With very great respect to those
who thus view the coming contest, and In
no way questioning either their sincerity
or high motives, I yet venture to assert
that this line of cleavage between the
classes Is as mischievous as It is lacking
in justification. No greater Injury can be
done to the progress of the American peo
ple than to throw the firebrand of class
hatred Into their midst."
MISTAKE OF ONE WORD.
Petitions Favor Closing, Not Open
ing, Fair on Sundays.
Owing to an error by which the word
"opening" was substituted for "closing"
In a dispatch, JCVilbur F. Crafts appeared
to favor the opening Instead of the closing
of the Lewis & Clark Fair on Sundays.
The dispatch was sent by Mr. Crafts from
Washington on January IS. and was pub
lished In The Oregonian of January 16.
When he rrpK-tvl thnt sma nt TV, a riya
gonlan in Washington he sent the follow

error in my telegram. Nearly all petitions
from Oregon ask complete closing of Port

mously for St. Louis. My former letter and
this should be headed "Against Sunday

committee and petitions and letters for com
plete closing are changing opinions of Sen

yet reported. here as favoring the half and

all call for complete closing. '
WILBUR F. CRAFTS.
To this dispatch the Postal Telegraph
Lrompany in wasmngton appended the fol
lowing note:
'Special 15th Is correct, as per original
Here.
The Oregonian then sent to the Postal
Telegraph office in Portland for a carbon
copy of the dispatch as received In this
city and verified in Washington, and re
ceived the following:
Washington. D. C. Jan. 15. The partial
Sunday closing recommended for Lewis and

WILBUR F. CRAFTS.
It will be seen that the word "opening"
occurs in the last sentence, just as It was
published in The Oregonian of January
16.
On the same subject The Oregonian has
received a letter from Rev. J. H, Lelper,
field secretary of the Northwest Sabbath
Association, dated January 26, in which,
after quoting the dlspatch-from Mr. Crafts
referred to already as published In The
Oregonian of January 16, he says:
Seeing the utter inconsistency of the last
part of the above telegram with the first
three-fourths of it and knowing the attitude
of the International Reform Bureau on the
question ct open or closed gates of former
fairs. I concluded there must be a mistake
that ought to be corrected, and I forwarded
the text of his letter or telegram as pub

asked for an explanation.- He, wishing the
immediate correction of the mistake, an
swered by a telegram -which, I am sure, in
Justice to Sr. Crafts and all others con
cerned. The Oregonian will be glad to pub
lish. It is as follows:

Mayfield Invites Portland to Build
Electric and Boat Line.
The people of Mayfield. Wash., are anx
ious to establish commercial intercourse
with Portland-vni9ans of river navi
gation and electric railway. They assert
that the scheme Is feasible and are anx
ious to have some Portland company start
the project. A letter to this effect was
received by the Chamber of Commerce
yesterday.
The letter written by J. B. Glenn, states
that the people of Mayfield have long
been anxious to trade with Portland, but
have been prevented from doing so, be
cause of the lack of transportation facil
ities. The proposition set forth is tfiat
boats shall be operated from this city
to the head of navigation on the Cowlitz
River, then an electric line will connect
this point and Mayfield. Mr. Glenn
stated that surveys of the course had
been made and It had b'een learned that a
good grade for the road rould be secured.
There are few obstalces to construction
and operation and he sees no reason why
such a road should not be a success.
It Is stated further that the people of
the district that would be benefited by
the road and river lino will be willing to
subscribe at least 40 per cent of the
capital necessary to build .the line, and
will give It plenty of support to make It
a paying proposition.
In conclusion, the letter asks that the
Chamber of Commerce take the matter
in hand and aid the people of Mayfield
in securing what they desire. It Is uregd
that the proposition be submitted to some
reliable company which will take steps
to carry It out
The tone of the "letter indicates that
those proposing the line mean business
and are willing to do their share of the
work in constructing the same.

Rupture With Gould Line Averted
NEW YORK, Jan. 27. Following a
deadlock which threatened a breach of

cording to the Herald, between George J.
Gould and the Rock Island-Frisco system
for the joint use of the new Iron Mountain-Texas
Pacific route from Memphis to

No contract has yet been signed, but It
Is asserted that the stumbling block to
former negotiations which at one time
caused the announcement that the Rock

EXHIBIT SCHOOL WORK
PORTLAND TEACHERS GATHER
ING COMPLETE DISPLAY.
Specimens of Eacft Grade in Each
School Will Be Sent to St. Louis
-Rivalry Assures Excellence.
The public schools of Portland are busily
making preparations for an exhibit at the
St. Louis Exposition; and the teachers
are co-operating with City Superintendent
Frank Rigler in an effort to make their
exhibit one of the finest from the Coast.
A school Is always rather handlcanoed
in its exhibition of the work It can ac
complish, for the reason that it does not
make a showy exhibit, and few visitors
aside from those personally Interested in
education look the papers and drawings
over In speaking of this matter yester
day Mr. Rigler said:
The best work of schools is oral work.
and this exhibits cannot show. So we have
to rely upon the handwork of the pupils
to show to the best possible advantage
what they have done orally.
'we propose to send specimens of
work done in each grade, from the pri
mary to the High School, and will show
as best we can what work they are dolnsr.
Wherever possible this work will be Illus
trated, and the pupils In drawing and
color work will have fine displays. Arith
metic will call for a good many diagrams,

our schools, showing. both exteriors and
interiors, and pictures of classes in phys

know how much space would be allotted

to have more than enough to fill it.
DISLIKED TO SAW WOOD.
Eddie Ives Preferred to Sleep In Gro
cery Store and Goes to Jail.
Eddie Ives, 18-year-old, says he is sure
thatlf he returned to the shelter of the
paternal roof Tuesday - evening he would
nave oeen lenaerea a souna tnrasning.
His father told him to saw wood, but hav
ing a dislike for manual labor, Eddie
says he went to the North End and got
drunk. Knowing that all this would be
entirely too much for his father's pa
tience, the youth declares he wandered
to the Groce grocery store, on Seven
teenth street near Raleigh, and went to
sleep in the upper part of the store.
That is what Eddie says. He told the
story to Municipal Judge Hogue In Police
Court yesterday morning. The police gave
a different version of the same affair.
They say the youth went to the grocery
store' for the sole purpose of carrying
away as much of the grocerymans effects
as his two arms would carry. They
thought he ought to be held to the grand
jury on a charge of burglary. From the
evidence Introduced by Acting Detective
Hogeboom he found In Eddie's home a
quantity of tobacco and articles taken
from the store when It was robbed a few
days ago. This evidence clinched the
matter. Judge Hogue, while expressing
regrets at being forced to take the initial
step in sending a youth of such Immature
years to the penitentiary, ordered him held
to await the action of the grand jury.
In default of J500 bond the youth went to
the County Jail.
Lights Were Burning.
PORTLAND, Jan. 27. (To the Editor.)
Will you kindly allow us space to correct
an error which has appeared In your re
port of the distressing accident which be
fell our fellow-clubman, P. R. Boulbee,
on Tuesday? Through a misapprehension
of the facts, It was asserted that the
lights were not turned on in the room in
which the pool Is situated.
The accident happened about 6 o'clock in
the evening, at a time when the room
would have been in total darkness, if
there had been no artificial light. The jan
itor says positively that he turned all
the lights on not later than 4:15. The
other members, who were bathing at the
time, and who saw the affair and removed
Mr. Boulbee from the tank, also affirm
that the lights were burning.
Deeply grieved as we are by this ca
lamity which has befallen one of our
number, and sympathizing most sincerely
with his family, still we think that the
erroneous Impression regarding the cir
cumstances attending it should be cor
rected. Yours very truly,
C. D. BRANDON, Secretary.
