METHODISTS LISTEN TO RT. REV.
CRANSTON'S LAST SERMON.
Testimonial Signed by Official Board
of Taylor-Street Church Pays
Him Tribute.
Bishop Earl Cranston, for eight years
resident Methodist bishop of the diocese
of Oregon, said farewell to an immense
congregation of loyal Methodists yester
day morning in the Taylor-street Church.
.Knowing that this-would be his last ser
mon in Portland, members of nearly
every Methodist congregation in town
gathered to hear his last words. vThe
tribute thus paid him -was one well de
served, for Bishop Cranston has been a
great and beneficial power in this diocese,
and the good he has accomplished will
never die. As stated in a testimonial read
at the close of the sermon, signed by the
official board of Taylor-street Church,
many of the churches and other Methodist
institutions were floundering in financial
despair and involved in all sorts of diffi
culties, but the g-dlding hand of the bishop
had straightened all these matters out
until now they are In a flourishing condi
tion. The highest tribute that could ba
paid the administration of any man was
heaped upon Bishop Cranston, and the
entire congregation indorsed the testimo
nial by a rising vote. The response of the
bishop was broken by bis emotion, but ho
expressed his deep appreciation of the
demonstration, and besought his congre
gation to look after the new pastors who
came Into this field and give them their
support and encouragement.
As a last sermon. Bishop Cranston ad
monished all Christians to believe in the
Bible and to understand it intelligently.
The text, taken from the eighth chapter
of the Acts of the Apostles, was: "Under
standest thou what thou readest?" and
the interpretation of the Bible was dis
cussed from many standpoints. The
speaker maintained throughout, however,
that the Bible is a book of the common
people and Is more accurately interpreted
by those of simple hearts and mind and
Inherent faith than by the scholar or
critic The illustration of the dear old
grandmother, who could tell him what
certain passages meant when those deeply
versed in many lores failed, was" an illus
tration which served his purpose well.
"This, as you all know, is an age of
experts in every walk of life. Modern
education follows the Idea of preparing
for one especial duty or aim, and the
specialist prepares for one thing at the
cost of all others. He takes a mental at
titude which shuts out all other than his
one hobby, and he eventually becomes a
one-Idea man, and, therefore, "somewhat
weakened to outside things.
"The original experts were the Apos
tles. Jesus selected men to propound the
gospel who were especially fitted for the
particular -work he wished them to do. He
made Moses a lawgiver, and the world has
never known a greater one; Josnua, a
warrior; Isaiah, a prophet, and when He
sent Phillip to preach he knew that he
was fitted for it The Apostles were as
sociated with Christ, and they were in
structed how to interpret the gospel.
"Happy is the scholar who knows how
to come to the book as a man and not as
a critic It is conceded that all Chrlstans
do not read the book alike each in his
own way. But they are all agreed that
this book is , inspired of God, and Is here
by divine authority and sanction for the
guidance of mankind. If this Is not so,
then any man who chooses is qualified to
be a critic
"But if it is a book of which God is the
author, then it is above the criMclsm ap
plied to ordinary literature."'
Bishop Cranston said in explanation of
the charges -which had been made that
-the Bible was an unclean book, unfit to
read in the public schools, that the
prophets and the people of their day were
more innocent than present generations,
and that the man who perversely chal
lenged the purity of the Bible was like
the man who dragged a pure white lily
through mud and slime and then pro
nounced it unclean. !
PREACHER IN PARIS
Is Bewildered at the Obtrusiveness
of Vice in French Capital. ,
The White Temple was crowded last
night to hear Dr. Brougher speak on
"Paris the Paradise of Pleasure-Seekers "
The Sunday School Hall had to be opened
to accommodate the people, and their
enthusiasm broke forth frequently in
applause. The music was excellent and
the services unusually Interesting. Among
other things Dr. Brougher said:
Farf Is Pre-eminently a city of pleas
l?:,r .?.e 5aP hardlv imagine the absolute
tht fun and folly hold over Che
?rrfit Sf ms cit'- Everything
?OT,f?di.SI2tl th0 "lust of e eye.
the lust of the flesh and the pride of life.'5
At every step you meet something to at
tract and Invite you to pleasure Gardens
and parks, boulevards and cafes, monu
ments and galleries, all invite and appeal
to ones love of the beautiful and the at-tnHTe-oBut,Pa.rls
Presents, through his
torical associations, many substantial
charms. It. Is utterly impossible to pre
.ui one shP se"non the attractions
of this gay and Godless city.
io city has so Impressed me with its
combinations of the beautiful and the
ylle as Paris. On every hand you come
fa?,e. to faSe with toe beautiful. The
buildings, the monuments, the long, wide
and shady avenues, inspire one with their
beauty. The statues, and art museums,
the Church of the Madeleine and Notre
Dame, attract one by the grace of their
f w5It.eicturf'he Place de la Concords,
with its obelisk of Luxor, its sparkling
fountain and colossal statues, is beautiful
In spite of the bloody history that centers
at that spot. In fact, every park and pal
ace Is arranged to allure and attract.
On the other hand, there was thrust
upon you. continually, some suggestion
of the vile. In this paradise, as in the
ancient one, there are to be found both
lools and snakes. In most cities you
must look for evil, but in Paris It Is thrust
upon you. In the art galleries, the finest
in the world, the study of the nude In art
became nauseating. On the street cor
ners, In the cafes and stores, there was
thrust upon you, in pictures and paint
ings, postal cards and books, that which
catered to the low and the vulgar.
One of the unique features of Paris is
its boulevards. Here you may study
French life at its gayest, if not at its
worst. The sidewalks are -wide and the
throngs of people look like a marching
procession. The cafes extend clear out
on the sidewalk. Here, night or day, but
especially at night, when the theaters are
closing, gather great crowds of men and
women to drink their wine, -which Is an
introduction into a life of gaiety and
shame. Ninety-five thousand women In
Paris are licensed for wrongdoing, and
the old guide said "the busiest court was
the divorce court." When the women of
a nation become untrue that nation Is
soon doomed. May it be a long time may
it never come to pass, that French
-women, who now set the fashions in
dress, shall make the standard for the
world's morals.
The French guide showed me a golden
pig and remarked, "That is the God of
Dove," which the French people worship.
I remarked, "The French have mistaken
the God of Lust for the God of Love."
Yet it Is true that amidst the black and
murky waters of licentiousness there
bloom out many instances of the high
est and truest love. In the cemeterv Pere
Lachaise is the famous tomb of Abelard
and Heloise. Here the unhappy lovers
rest side by side. It is only another story
of woman's abiding love.
Napoleon recognized the power of love.
He said: '"Alexander. Caesar. Charle
magne and myself all founded empires.
But on what did we rest the creation of
our genius? Upon sheer force. Jesus
Christ alone founded his empire upon love
and at this hour millions of men will die
for him."
Over the entrance to Napoleon's tomb
we read these words: "J desire that my
ashes may rest on the banks of the Seine,
in the midst of the French people, whom
I have so well loved." Bcrtrand, his
faithful and devoted General, who went
-with him Into exile, is buried just at the
entrance of the tomb. He was placed
there at his own request, to be near to
the man he had loved in victory and de-

FEAST OF ST. LAWRENCE.
Solemn High Mass Chanted at Roman
Catholic Church.
The Feast of St Lawrence was cele
brated at St. Lawrence Church yesterday.
Solemn high mass was chanted at 10:30
o'clock by the Rev. H. S. Gallagher, as
sisted by Rev. J. C. Hughes, deacon;
Rev. E. Bolla, sub-deacon, and Rev. J. C.
Kennedy, master of ceremonies. An ex
ceptionally fine programme of sacred
music was rendered by an augmented
choir under the direction of Miss Mattie
Kelly, organist of the church. The ser
mon of the occasion , was preached by
Rev. Father Hughes, pastor of the church.
Father Hughes said in part: "St. Law
rence was one of the seven deacons of the
City of Rome In the 3rd century of the
christian era. As deacon it was his
office to serve the mass of St. Xystus,
who was at that time Pope. When the
persecution broke out under the Emperor
Valerius St. Xystus was seized and car
ried off to martyrdom. As he was on his
way St. Lawrence followed him weeping
and saying: 'Father, where are you going
without your son? Whither are you going
-without your deacon? Have you found
me wanting in my duty? Have I dis
pleased you? Try me now and see whether
you have made a choice of an unfit
minister for dispensing the blood of the
Lord?' St. Xystus replied: 'I do not leave
you, my son, but a greater trial and more
glorious victory are reserved for you -who
are strong and in the vigor of youth. You
shall follow in three days.' Three days
after St. Lawrence was burned Xo death,
his faith rendering him Joyful, even
mirthful, in the midst of his sufferings.
How to accept sufferings and make them
advantageous In a spiritual sense was the
lesson drawn from the saint's life with
a stirring exhortation to the large con
gregation to continue in the future years
true and loyal children of St. Lawrence."
Getting Along With the Neighbors.
New York Evening Post.
It would be a joyous solution of the
problem of "getting along with the
neighbors"' if one could always hit upon
the weak joint in the other's armor and
pierce it with an unpoisoned shaft of
wit. But the overmastering impulse Is
to condemn the adjacent noisy cat or
piano-player in vigorous terms and
threaten to destroy them utterly. A
nuisance to the ordinary frantic city
dwener is regarded as the -worst ever
inflicted upon any one and practically
Irremediable. But now and then we hear
of the man of large toleration who dares
approach the keeper of the nuisance with
a suggestion that disarms all resentment.
Such was the Chicago man whose neigh
bor is the owner of a rooster of diminu
tive size, but with a very large voice.
which crows continually, commencing
every morning about 2 o'clock. Further
more, the rooster has a very hoarse voice,
and the crow is very long drawn out. His
.note of protest to the rooster's owner
read as follows:
"Deer Sur: Fur the luv of god pleeze
glv that rooster of yures sum korff slrp
or grees his throte sow he wont make so
much noise In the nlte times.
"He Js very hoorse and I tink a little.
Axel greese rubbed on his throte on the
inside or with the sharp edge on the
outside just back of his errs will doo sum
good. Yure frent, A. Yonsen." An In
spired note of protest like fhat""could
have but one effect.
Western Democracy Is Populism.
Springfield, III., Journal.
Every Democrat who is at all familiar
with political conditions in the West
knows that without the support of the
Populists the Democratic party has no
more chance of carrying any Western
State than It has of carrying Massachu
setts or Vermont. The Republicans have
been fighting Populist principles all the
years that the Democrats have been es
pousing them. The Democratic party in
the West Is just as much a Populist party
as It has been for the last 12 years, and
its success would spell triumph for the
Populist principles which have been re-
tpudiated at tho polls.

FASHION SETS TO FLATS
BOOM IN APARTMENT FLATS DUE
IN PORTLAND.
It Is. Safe to Say This Class of Struc
tures Will Soon Overshadow
the,Rooming-Houses.
The time for the largo apartment house
and the model tenement Is fast approach
ing in Portland and it Is safe to say that
within the year the immense number of
rooming houses will be overshadowed by
the number of apartment houses, contain
ing suits of three and four, rooms. There
Is room for a great deal of building of
this kind in Portland right now, some of
It Is going on at present and whatever
is needed will come.
Portland is not overcrowded just now
as it has has been for the last two years,
but there is not much more than the
skeleton of a city here at present. When
the crowds begin to return from the coast
early in September the house, fiat and
apartment question will take on a more
serious appearance. It is certain that
with the return of the Summer pilgrims
and the regular Fall Influx of Easterners
coming here to settle, that there will be
the same old shortage of places in which
to live, and rents will take another up
ward step.
There is a big floating -population in
Portland these days and there! always
will be now. This class of people do not
care to take lots and build in the sub
urbs for themselves, they cannot afford
as a general rule to build In town, and
all that remains for them is to seek out
an apartment house and live there The
style of apartment depends upon whether
the man is drawing a salary of $S0 a
month or $300. Gradually the city is ac
cumulating a stock of various styles of
fiats and apartments . to meet all needs
promptly.
But the city has not nearly the stock
that It will require, and that shortly.
Money seems to be too busy in business
just now to go into buildings and the
building that has been done has saved
the city from an absolute famine of
-rooms. It Is notable that the buildings
and dwellings are. all now tight full and
It is the dead of Summer.
Just what Is going to be done when the
Fair comes next Spring does not now
appear, but the necessity for greater
accommodations is one of the reasons for
believing that the number of apartment
houses, boarding-houses and flats will
have to be greatly Increased and for that
reason will be built thickly.
The situation is such now that people
are now living in rooms who would
gladly take a small apartment If they
could obtain one reasonably. But to
make flats cheap would mean cheap bilild
ings and Portland has fallen Into the
habit of not building anything cheap any
more. There will be several large build
ings finished this Fall which are to con
tain small model apartments, but they
will not be cheap. The buildings they are
in are costing too much, to warrant it.
And these are but a drop in the bucket.
More will come.
Life In an apartment such as some of
the citizens of Portland are becoming
used to removes privacy as much, as a
boarding-house. In some of the less com
plete ones it is necessary to parade by
one's neighbor's door to and from a bath
and the door of one apartment opens so
closely to that of the next that it is as
much trouble keeping one's private affairs
indoors as to keep a bill collector out.
And when the women above practice
scales on the piano in the early morning
and the family below hold jollifications
late at night, It is hard to bear.
Apartments have not become common
enough yet, so that there are lines drawn
between the different classes, but that
will come with numbers. And the same
old cliques that form In boarding-houses
and elsewhere will make distinctions
which will be hard to follow except by
Con
signees. From.

Fairbanks Placer District in Alaska
Only Awaits Better Communication.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU, Wash
ington, D. C, Aug. 14. Among the placer
fields of Alaska that attracted attention
during 1S03 were those of the Fairbanks
district In bulletin 223, entitled "Contri
butions to Economic Geology, 1903," re
cently published by the United States
Geological Survey, I M. Prlndle has a
brief description of the gold placers of
this district, which Is an abstract of -a
more complete report that he has in prep
aration. The area described lies between Chena
and Tolovana Rivers, and is drained by
their tributaries. It is 140 miles southwest
of Circle, 200 miles in a straight line west
of Eagle, and perhaps 200 miles above the
mouth of Tanana River. This region forms
a portion of what Is known as the Fair
banks district, where present interest is
directed mainly to the valleys of a few
small streams, which, head close to one
another just within the hill country about
12 miles north of Tanana River. Gold
was discovered on one of these tributa
ries of the Tanana in July, 1S02, and the
creek was named Pedro' Creek, In honor
of the discoverer. It Is interesting to note
that In the report of the Peters and
Brooks expedition of 189S, prospectors
were advised to look for gold in the
streams entering the Tanana trpm the
north and heading opposite the gold-producing
creeks of the Fortymlle and Birch
Creek regions. " The streams in which
gold has been found In the Fairbanks
district all head far back in the Yukon
Tanana Divide and flow westward or
southwestward.
-The creeks of present economic Im
portance are Pedro Creek, called Gold
Stream,' below the point where Gilmore
enters it, and Twin Creek, a, tributary of
Pedro; Cleary Creek, with its tributaries,
Chatham and Wolf and Fairbanks Creeks.
They are but a few miles apart, and are
separated by broad divides that rise 1000
feet or more above them, and flow in di
vergent courses Pedro towards the south
west and west, Cleary toward the north
west, Fairbanks towards the east.
These, are the only creeks in the Fair
banks district which, up, to the present
time, have afforded paying deposits. The
conditions of the occurrence of gold on
all of them are essentially the same. No
foreign wash has been observed, and it
would seem that the gold is derived from
the rocks in which the creeks have cut
their channels. The pay Is generally
found at considerable depth, and, except
In a few localities, in frozen ground. The
creeks -are small, carrying hardly suffi
cient water for extensive operations, and
their grade is low. Timber for mining
purposes on most of these creeks must
be freighted for several miles from the
lower valleys. Trails along the ridges are
mostly good, but where they traverse the
swampy areas along the creeks they are
generally bad.
Although no large values have yet been
discovered, the gold seems to be well dis
tributed along the creeks where it has
been found. In some localities gold Is
known to occur in sufficient quantity to
pay for working, even under the present
unfavorable conditions. Notwithstanding,
the Inaccessibility of the district, which
can be reached only by trail, the high
price of supplies and the lack of money
necessary for the development of claims,
this district produced from S30.000 to $35,
000 during the short Summer of 1903. With
better means of communication and more
abundant supplies, the development of the
district will undoubtedly be greatly has
tened. Poetic License.

Last year there was a very prudent and
thrifty reverend gentleman living In South
ern Oregon. He procured from us two ot
our certificates of deposit, payable on 00
days' call, with Interest at 4 per cent per
annum. A short time ago one of these cer
tificates came back to us from New York
City. The reverend gentloman had made
an investment, and he found that his certifi
cate was as good as cash to make payment
for the same.
It Is always goodv to have your money
drawing Interest until you find a permanent
Investment. Call on us and let us give you
further examples of how these certificates
work.
