THE MOENDiG OREGONIAN, TUESDAY, JUNE 21, 1904. WORK IN HARMONY Rev. C. Ross Baker, D. D., of Boise, de livered what was probably the best bacca laureate sermon ever listened to by a Mc Minnville audience. Dr. Baker spoke on "The Divine Nature" This afternoon in the college chapel, four members of the Junior class delivered orations to a large audience. The papers, as a whole, were above the average and showed careful preparation. The speakers and their subjects were as follows: Bela Gowea, "Gustavus Adolphus Vasa;" Allan McRae, "Booker T. "Washington;" S. K. DlebeL "The Foreigner In America;" Jesse A. Baker, "The Progress of Chem istry." Promotion Forces of City and State to Be Centralized. THE MOVEMENT GAINS-FORCE OETENT PROVES A MAGNET. 8 President Ladd, of Oregon Informa tion Bureau, Announces His Will ingness to Assist Tom Rich ardson in His Work. All forces that have been so far sepa rate are ready to the hand of Tom Rich ardson and his promotion work. Following' on -the co-operation effected between the Chamber of Commerce, the Commercial Club. Ijho Manufacturers' Association and the Board of Trade comes the support of the Oregon Information Bureau as sug gested by Mr. Killlngsworth in yester day's Oregonlan. Charles E. Ladd, presi dent of the bureau, has expressed himself as willing and ready to see the Bureau's work taken up In connection with the general promotion work to be managed by Sir. Richardson in connection with the Commercial Club. Mr. Ladd said he was not empowered to hand over the Bureau but that as a subscriber he would gladly see the purpose of the Bureau carried out In connection with Mr. Richardson and have him utilize the organization effected by the Bureau. The permanent exhibit of the Chamber of Commerce, it has also been decided, will be merged into the -large general ex hibit to be placed in the auditorium of the Chamber of Commerce building. That matter has been easily arranged and Mr. Batchelder, chairman of the permanent exhibit committee of the Chamber of Com merce, is heartily in favor of the pro osed co-operation, and is more than will ing to see it effected. He said: "It can do much more good it it is part of a general work carried on under able management such as I know Mr. Richard son will give to the entire movement than under separate management." But the most Important aid yet ex tended the new movement Is the support of the Information Bureau which already has arrangements by which the counties can with legislative sanction make exhib its in Portland. It remains to unite all the commercial bodies of the state in the gen eral plans of promotion. Mr. Ladd believes In the new movement, and for that reason he is willing to see the Information Bureau taken up by it. He said: "Though not empowered as president of the Bureau to bind it in any way to any outside movement, I wish to say that as a subscriber to the fund that supports the Bureau, that I should like to see it taken up by Mr. Richardson and used in his general scheme of promotion. I believe that Mr. Richardson is a capable man and Is fit to do the work now before h'lm and for that reason, If he can do better with the Information Bureau than it is now doing by its independent efforts, I should like to see Mr. Richardson make use of it "The Oregonlan has taken this matter up and I for my part am of the opinion that the favorable suggestions in The Ore gonlan are all right, provided the subscrib ers to the fund are willing. This is one of the organizations already at hand for the use of the new movement and, as I said before. If the general arrangement of pro motion Instituted by Mr. Richardson can make the Bureau more efficient, I should be glad to see the Bureau in the hands of Mr. Richardson, directly or indirectly." This statement, backed up by other heavy subscribers to the fund supporting the Information Bureau, may result in a virtual handing over of the Bureau to the new movement whenever Its organization is effected and the state as a whole takes up the matter; and It Is understood that Mr. Richardson is now occupied with the preliminaries of the movement to extend the promotion organization over the state. TO SET MTJEDER TRIAL. Judge George Indicates That Tuesday Will Be the Day. The trial of Frank Gugllelmo for the murder of Freda Guarascia will probably be set for June 2S. Judge George yester day afternoon stated that next Tuesday would be a good time to begin the trial which can be concluded by the end of that week. A special venire for additional Jurors to fill the regular panel will be drawn today to appear next Thursday and serve in sev eral cases; and those Jurors and the jurors now in attendance, will be held for the Gugllelmo trial. Yesterday morning Albert Ferrera with drew as attorney for Gugllelmo, informing Judge George that he is not feeling well, and may have to leave the city for a while. Mr. Ferrera was born In Portland of Italian parents, and was educated in Italy and speaks the language of that country fluently. The Italian friends of the father of the murdered girl, who are many, are bitter In their denunciations of the slayer of Freda, and are clamoring for speedy Justice. It is said they annoyed Mr. Ferrera a great deal, and as he has not been feeling well anyhow, he was anxious to sever his conectlon with the case. Ban R. Murphy appeared for Gugllelmo at 2 o'clock yesterday afternoon and said the prisoner would have another lawyer, probably two of them. Mr. Murphy In formed the court that so far as he Is con cerned he Is willing to proceed with the trial at once, and thought his associate counsel would share his opinion In this re gard, but ho had not consulted with them yet. It is understood that the other attorneys referred to are Ralph H. Moody and Dan J. Malarkey. It Is stated that the name of George J. Cameron has been mentioned. Gugllelmo owns a house and lot on Front street, valued at $2000 and covered by a $700 mortgage; also land at LInnton valued at 5300. He transferred certain land at Llnntoa to Sebastiana Plzzl on Saturday last, and John F. Logan, attorney, says he knows that this transfer is legal be cause in October, 1S03. he made out deeds for Gugllelmo and Pizzi covering this land in which they were jointly interested, but the deeds were never delivered, and Mr. Logan still has them in his possession. Glncc the trouble occurred. It was natural that Pizzi should desire to settle his prop erty rights with Gugllelmo immediately. The saloon owned by Gugllelmo he is re ported to have sold for $300. Judge George yesterday afternoon de nied the motion to quash the indictment argued on Saturday by Mr. Ferrera, and overruled the demurrer. He held that the printed name of George E. Chamberlain on the back of the Information, as District Attorney was what in law Is called sur plusage, and did not vitiate the Informa tion anj more than the name of the firm which printed the blank, which appeared on It. Commencement at McMlnnviUe. M'MINNVILLE COLLEGE, McMlnn vllle. Or.. June SO. (Special.) The com mencement exercises are in full swing at the college and there are many alumni and visitors present. Yesterday afternoon. Rev. L. W. Terry, of T a coma, delivered the annual address before the Christian associations. His theme was "What Con stitutes a Strong Man." In the evening Feature of Lewis and Clark Fair At tracts Attention. The Oriental aspect of the Lewis and Clark Exposition is to prove of Immeas urable power in attracting visitors and in assuring the success of the great Fair. New England business men have given the assurance that from the New England States alone 5100,000 will be raised by manufacturers, above all public appropri ations, for the purpose of bringing them In closer contact with Oriental trade. This is the report made by Jefferson Myers, president of the Lewis and Clark Sate Commission, who returned from St Louis yesterday, after having conducted the dedication services attendant upon the opening of the Oregon building. "It Is the Oriental part of our Fair that appears to be attracting the great est amount of attention," said Mr. Myers. "Manufacturers of the East are anxious to come in contact with Oriental trade and I have received ample assurance that the manufacturing Interests of the East, and .especially of the New England States, will be well represented here In 1905. "I was pleasantly surprised," said Mr. Myers, "to find how extensively the Lewis and Clark Exposition has become known. Representatives of all nations speak of the Lewis and Clark Fair and assure me mat they will come here to see our won derful country and experience our won derful climate. The head of a big London shipbuilding establishment said the Fair is known of and is a subject of considera tion among London business men. He said his firm had already concluded to send a large model ship, the size of a Pullman car. "If my opinion is not amiss, and I have formed It after careful thought," continued Mr. Myers, "we are going to have more visitors in Portland next year than we had ever counted upon. What we should do is to make arrangements to entertain and give hotel accommodations to many thousand people." Speaking of the St Louis Exposition. Mr. Myers said it Is the greatest Fair of history and as an educator surpasses any thing that the cost of visiting the Fair could give. "Every industry and every development Of every nation is shown there," he said. Oregon .day was a great success, Mr. Myers stated. Four thousand' people at tended the dedication ceremony at the state building and every one of the visit ors went away with an insight Into West ern hospitality. "The reproduction of old Fort Clatsop," concluded Mr. Myers, "Is attracting no end of attention and will be of great value In advertising both the state and the coming Exposition. People walk right past the fine Texas building and enter our stockades much to the be wilderment of the gentlemen from the Lone Star State." SCHOOL ELECTION AT MT. TABOE Electon of F. E.

Morgan Recovers $56 From Multnomah Fair Association. To recover a balance of $94 for white washing the grandstand at the Irvlngton racetrack In August, 1903. M. G. Morgan appeared as plaintiff "in the State Circuit Court yesterday in a suit against the Multnomah Fair Association. The work was done under the supervision of B. M. Lazarus, architect, and he complained that Morgan allowed the seats in the grandstand to become covered with lime, so that a person's clothing would be cov ered with it who occupied a seat, and it was necessary to stain and paint the seats so that they could be used. This cost $S0, and was deducted from Morgan's bill, and also half the cost of cleaning the aisles. Morgan testified that when he took the contract to do the work he called the at tention of Lazarus to the fact that lime would drop on he seats, and told him he would cover the seats with paper as well as possible, and clean the seats after the job was finished. He said he and his men cleaned the seats thoroughly. Witnesses for the defense testified that all of the lime was not removed. Among the wit nesses who testified for the Multnomah Fair Association were L. H. Adams, San ford Hirsch, H M. Lazarus, A. R. Dia mond and John. Blied. The trial was be fore Judge Cleland. George F. Brlce and J. E. Magers appeared as attorneys for Morgan, and Judge Moreland for the as sociation. The jury returned a verdict in favor of the plaintiff for $36, with a rec ommendation that the coats be paid by each. The recommendation has no force or effect, because the statute provides for the settlement of the costs by defendant. FREE ST. XODIS BOOK Had for the Asking Tells All About the Blc Exposition.

Thirst for Gore Unquenched POLICE PREVENT SAVAGE BULLS FROM FIGHTING AND PORTLAND SPORTS ARE DISAPPOINTED TWO savage bulls, starved to the proper degree of ferocity, were to have gored each other for the delectation of a bloodthirsty crowd of Portland sports Sunday afternoon. Only the timely ar rival of police officers sent out by Chief Hunt prevented the battle of the horned giants in a small pen on the Egger dairy, six miles from the city. From the appearance of the crowd that went out to the farm, which is on the Columbia Slough, two miles from the Vancouver street-car line, bullfighting would become a very popular form of amusement If It were not just a trifle contrary to the laws of the state, of humanity, decency and a few other things. On a conservative estimate there were no fewer than 100 people-either on the ranch or en route when the pro gramme was to have commenced. Among the number were several well-known sportsmen who passed up the ball game on the promise of a livelier t afternoon. There were also several members of the fair sex In an automobile and an enter prising representative of a local vaude ville house armed with a moving picture machine. All were In a state of great ex citement and expectancy, when their hopes were ruthlessly blasted by the law's minions. The bloody affray was scheduled for 2 o'clock. Long berore that hour the sports had commenced their pilgrimage to the scene of battle, bent upon satiating their craving for gore. There were two big au tomobile loads of people and many rigs. Jack Peterson, the liveryman, drove a lively trotter out to the place and put on speed In fine style. Art Hayes, the chauffeur, also gave an exhibition of how fast an auto can go when properly urged. All seemed anxious to get there and see the rich, red blood mingle In dust. "When the hour for the battle arrived the two gladiators were snorting and pawing the earth In impatience. One was a fine four-year-old Holstein and the other was a three-year-old Shorthorn. They ap peared In fine mood for the battle and a fight that wouiu have satisfied the crav ings of the most exacting native of Mex ico or Spain "was on the verge of com mencement when! A thin line of dust that had appeared down the road a few moments before was beginning to assume proportions. Be fore the astonished assemblage could realize what had happened two grim vlsaged policemen broke with a terrifying yell from the cloud of dust, sprang from their foaming steeds and charged. They told the Egger brothers that 60 days in jail would bo their portion if the fight was pulled off. Then they rode away. The sports yelled for blood, regardless of the Interference of the police. The Justly celebrated "Mysterious Billy" Smith offered to cut one of the bulls loose if his friend Bill Moler would release the other. Thus the animals could get to gether, as if by accident and fight It out Moler agreed, but Smith Is said to have experienced a severe chill In his left foot at the critical moment. Thus another delay. Peterson then offered to buy the bulls and sell them back after the fight so that all the blame would be taken from the shoulders of the Egger brothers, but the ualrymen thought what an unhappy time 60 days might become and they de clined. After much grumbling the disappointed sports slouched along homeward and thus was ended the Initial attempt to introduce bullfighting In Portland. , But the sports say their "dander" Is up and they will try It again.

AGAINST HIM HERMAN WITTENBERG WAS RE ELECTED SCHOOL DIRECTOR Mrs. L. W. Sitton Becomes Chairman of Board of Education-Election of Teachers Not Completed. Of the 253 votes cast yesterday for School Director, Herman Wittenberg received only 309, and was therefore elected to suc ceed himself. The quiet opposition feared by Mr. "Wit tenberg and his friends did not material, ize, and the votes against him were scat tered and mainly complimentary. John Klernan received 15 votes, the highest number recorded for any opponent to Mr. Wittenberg. Among the votes cast was one for Mrs. Thurlow and another for Mrs. Manley. With the close of Mr. Wittenberg's year as Director and chairman of the Board of Education. Mrs. L. W. Sitton takes the chair. The Directors met for half an hour last evening to count the votes for Director. Mrs. Sitton began her duties In the chair and the Directors centered their attention upon her prospective title. "Mrs. Chairman," was finally agreed upon, and will be the rule for the meet ings in the future. Ee-electlon of the school teachers and principals was not completed yesterday by tne Dlrecters. They met lor two hours yesterday afternoon, and began work upon the long list Those selected will not become known until after the meet ing at 2 o'clock this afternoon when It Is -believed every teacher and principal will be definitely passed upon. Changes nere will be in the list when completed by the Directors. One principal at least will be droped from the roll, but his name Is kept back by the Directors. A few teachers must also seek new posi tions. In this connection a strong effort will probably be made next year to send applications for reappointment only to those teachers and principals which are wanted for the coming year. According to the custom now, teachers may rest se curely In the belief their places are as sured for next year, and fill out the ap plications when they are received. Then, after the re-election the teachers whom the Directors privately decided months be fore to drop entirely find themselves out in the cold and the positions In other schools all taken.

Ayer'i You have doubtless heard a great deal about Aver's Sar saparilla how it makes the blood pure and rich, tones up the nervous system, clears the skin, reddens the cheeks, and puts flesh on the bones.

These pills are liver pills, safe for the parents, and just as safe for the children. Purely vegetable. He said the Mount Scott car kept mov ing after the other car stopped. The City & Suburban Company pleaded as a defense that, according to the rules in use, the City & Suburban car had the right of way. While this was admitted, John Dltchburn, attorney for the plaintiff, alleged negligence on the part of the em ployes of both companies, and the verdict stands against each. Hutchings sued for 5570.
