CHURCH BURNS MORTGAGE
FIRST EVANGELICAL CONGREGA
TION OUT OF DEBT.
Jubilee Rally Is Held In Which the
Struggles of the Church
Are Recounted. '
In the presence of a large audience
and at the close of the Jubilee held last
night, the mortgage that stood for so
long a time over the First "English
Evangelical Church and manse, East
Sixth and Market streets, went up In
smoke. The ushers were unable to seat
all the poople, and many remained stand
ing through the programme. Back of the
pulpit the wall was banked with ever
green, on which were the words, In gilt
letters, 'Thanks be unto God; 1SS6-1S04.
Rejoice with us." About the altar and
platform were flowers and ferns. Rev.
G. W. Plumer, the pastor, had charge
of the programme. With him on .the
platform wer.e Rev. 2. Shupp, presiding
elder Portland district, and Rev. J. E.
Smith, presiding elder Salem district
After Scripture reading by Rev. B. G.
Eaton, music by the choir and prayer
by Rev. L. Myers, Rev. N. Shupp read
a historical sketch of the church. He
eald that the first steps were taken In
1S93, the church proper being organized
and building lot secured while Rev. A.
Schlenx was pastor. Tha lot bost over
$1900. While Rev. C. C. Poling, Ph. X.,
was pastor, In 1884-87, the church build
ing was put up at a cost of over $2000
and a. debt contracted which finally ran
up to $2CO0. Mr. Shupp spoke of the try
ing times when the division of the Ore
gon conference occurred and the mem
bership, which during the pastorate of
Rev. Jj. S. Fisher .had been 300, de
creased to 25 members, but the church
gradually recovered from that blow.
When in September, 1900, Rev. G. W.
Plumer came from the East and entered
on his work, the debt was $1800. Rev.
J. E. Smith started a subscription to "the
debt fund In 1900, and Mr. Plumer took
up the work and pushed It to a success
ful end. Mr. Shupp spoke of the patient
and effective labors of all the pastors
of the church. Of the original charter
members only "Mother" Weatherly was
present.
After the reading of the historical
sketch, Rev. G, W. Plumer read letters
of greeting from Rev. T. T. Vincent,
pastor in 1893-9G; Rev. F. B. Culver, pas
tor 1899, and Rev. Ezra Maurer, pastor
1899-00; Following came an address by
Rev. J. E. Smith, who spoke .on "Our
Mission." Rev. P. J. Green gave a" spir
ited talk on "Our Prospect" F. C.
Streyfuer sang a solo, followed by the
address, "Our venture for the Future,"
by F. M. Fisher." and "Our Relations
to the General Public," by Mrs. Ella
lladley. Then came the important part
of the programme, the burning of the
mortgage, which had cost the pastors
and members so hard a struggle. This
was followed "by an anthem by the Choir,
when the audience was dismissed.
COVERED WOODEN BRIDGES.
Property-Owners Ofcfer Solution of
Sullivan Gulch Controversy.
"The Council, or the Executive Board.
or whoever has authority, can settle the
question of bridges across Sullivan's
Gulch," said E. H. Virgil, a well-known
property-owner, yesterday, "by simply
building wooden structures at a cost of
$10,000 each on both Union and Grand
avenues. There Is no call for all this
rot and discussion about putting up even
one steel bridge at a cost of $75,000. The
property-owners will not stand for one
steel bridge at either Grand or Union
avenue. They have repeatedly made this
plain to the Council, and yet the Coun
cilmen continue to thresh the matter
over Instead of making provision, for
putting two bridges for the accommoda
tlon of the public on Union and Grand
avenues. The property-owners will resist
every effort to build a steel bridge on
either Union or Grand avenue."
This seems to be the sentiment of tho
property-owners both north and south
of Sullivan's Gulch, and they are stirred
every time they hear the question of
steel bridges discussed. H. D. Winters, a
property-owner on Grand avenue, says
that the property-owners on that street
favor building wooden structures at both
Union and Grand avenues so that there
will bo no discrimination and there will
be equal Justice to both streets.
Mr. Virgil adheres to his suggestion that
two covored bridges bo built, which, he
says, will last 20 years or more. He points
to tho covered bridges connecting the two
parts of the City of Haverhill, Mass., as
the class he considers best for Sullivan's
Gulch.
"Covered bridges can be well lighted by
openings along the sides," continued Mr.
Virgil, "and the cover would protect them
from the storms, causing them to last at
least 20 years. I don't believe there will
bo objections if the Council will go ahead
and put up two such bridges as I- have
suggested."
HOUSE BLOCKS THE TRACKS.
Chapter of Accident and Delays at
Union Avenue and East Burnside
From S o'clock yestorday morning till
C o'clock last evening there was something
doing at the Intersection of East Burn
side street and Union avenue. Between the
falling of the trolley wires several times
and the dropping of a heavy pole several
peoplo had narrow escapes. Joseph
Buchtel Is having moved tho two-story
cottage that stood on tho northwest
corner of the intersection. The electri
clans cut the wires at the intersection
shortly before 3 O'-clock In the morning.
and tho building would have been out ot
the way of the streot-cars running south
ward On Union avenue hod not one of
tho big tlmbors under the building broke.
Another had to be substituted, and mean
while the house stood across the car
tracks and passengers were transferred
until it was moved down street.
Then tho electricians began restoring
the scvoral wires above the intersection.
which was a long and dangerous job,
Several times in the afternoon the guy
wires gavo way, lotting tho trolley fall
to the street and causing Hashes as It
struck the damn places. As tho street
was crowded wHh pedestrians and pass
ing vehicles, it was fortunate that no
serious accident happened. Adjustment
of trolley wires carrying heavy electric
currents was a dangerous operation.

SUES SISTER, POR SUPPORT.
C. W. larrett Says He Has to Sleep
In Any Old PJace.
Cornelius W. Barrett, who has on sev
eral occasions within the "past seVeral
years applied to the courts' to compel
his" sister, Mrs. Xarifa Fallng, to support
him, yesterday filed a petition to that
effect in the County Court. 1
Barrett says he Is 55 years old. Is In-
nn bodily because of his exposure to
the elements, and Is unable to work. Ho
states that he has to sleep on' the ground,
in a basement or wherever night over
takes him, and to subsist almost wholly
upon charity.
Barrett alleges that his sister, Mrs.
Fallng, owns property at the corner of
Fifth and Washington streets valued at
$200,000 and bringing in a very large ren
tal, and also other property, and is well
able to provide for him. He asks the
court to make an order requiring her
to pay over a sufficient amount monthly
for his maintenance.
The father of Mrs. Faling and Cornelius
Barrett conducted a book and stationery
store in Portland In the '70s. The at
tempts of Cornelius Barrett in the past
to force bis sister to support him have
failed, although he Is authorized by
statute to sue. C. H. Piggott appears
as his attorney.
WHAT SHOULD A WOMAN DO?
Judge Gcarin Gives Expert Opinion
in McCarty-Heryford Case.
A demurrer to the amended answer in
the- case of Birdie N. McCarty versus
James L. Heryford for $70,000 for breach
of promise was argued In the Federal
Court yesterday. The discussion brought
up all sorts of questions about courtship.
what a broken-hearted woman should
do and just how far a man could ven
ture toward matrimony without laying
himself liable to a suit. The point of de
fense set up in the demurrer is that after
the alleged breach of contract was made,
the defendant signified a willingness to
marry the plaintiff and she refused. The
defense therefore claimed that the pjaln-
tlff has no grounds for suit.
Judge John Jd. Gearin, for Heryford,
said that there are three recourses for a
broken-hearted woman. 'The first,"
said he, "is for her to say, "You have
wronged me and refuse to make me your
wife. Go; I ,am glad to get rid of such
rubbish.' The second, ToU have broken
my heart and only gold can mend It.
Give me cash until my wounded feelings
are forgotten.' Third, provided the man
changes his mind and agrees to marry
her' I will take you for better or for
worse,' and thereafter peace reigns."
Judge Bellinger overruled the demur
rer on the ground that the point set
forth did not constitute a complete de
fense, but only mitigated the circum
stances with relation to damages. Tho
case will be tried for the second time In
the Federal Court at the next term. At
the former trial the plaintiff was award
ed $25,000 damages, but Judge Bellinger
set the judgment aside and ordered a
re-hearing.
STORY OF A BURNED NOTE.
Defendant and Her Divorced Hus
band Give Conflicting Evidence.
The trial of the suit of Frank Sedgast
against Mrs. Amelia Campbell, formerly
Mrs. Velguth, to recover $150 on a Jiote
which was destroyed In the Dolcum
building fire brought out some interest
ing developments. Mrs. Campbell plead
ed the statute of limitations, and she
also said that her former husband, Vel
guth, from whom she was divorced, was
to have signed the note, but did not
do so. Velguth testified, denying this,
and said he never heard-of the Instru
ment. Sedgast testified that he gave the
defendant $50 to deposit in a bank for
him, but Instead she used the money,
and he stated that he afterward ad
vanced various amounts to her until the
total sum was $150. Then he thought
he ought to have security, and asked her
to sign a note, which she did.. Judge
George took the case under advisement
. Anxious to Adopt. His Niece.

Trying Hassalo Damage Suit.
The case of the O. R. & K. Company
versus the ship Cypromene for damages
to the O. R. $ N. steamer Hassalo
DIDN'T BELIEVE
That Coffee Was the Real Trouble.
Some people flounder around and. take
everything that's recommended to them
but finally find out that coffee Is the real
cause of their troubles. An Oregon man
says:
"For 25 years I was troubled with my
stomach. 'I was a steady coffee drinker
but dldn t suspect that as the cause.
doctored with good doctors and got no
help, then I took almost anything which
Bomeone else had cured with, but to
no good. I was very bad last summer
and could not work at times.
"On December S. . i, I was taken so
had the doctor said I could not live over
24 hours at the most, and I made all
preparations to die. I could hardly cat
anything, everything distressed me and
I was weak and sick all over. When in
that condition coffee was abandoned and
I was put on Postum; the change in my
feelings came quickly after the drink
that was poisoning me was removed..
"The pain and sickness fell away from
me and I began to get well day by day.
so I stuck to it until now I am well and
strong again and can eat heartily with
no headache, heart trouble or the "awful
sickness of the old coffee days. I drink
all I wish of Postum without any harm
and enjoy it Immensely.
"This seems like a wonderfully strong
story, but I would refer you to the First
National Bonk, the Trust Banking Com
pany, or any merchant of Grant's Pass.
Or., In regard to my standing; and I will,
send a sworn statement of this If you
wish. You can also use my name."
Name given by Postum Co., Battle
Creek. Mich.
Still there are many who persistently
fool themselves by saying, "Coffee don't
hurt me." A ten days' tiial of Postum
in Its place will tell, the truth and many
times save life.
" "There's a reason."

place of an energetic spirit, with the full
