THE MORNING OttEGONIAK, VOSTtfAY. ITECEMBER 19, l90f. & TO HIDE D18GRAG Young Man Kills Himself After Committing Theft, TOOK MONEY FROM FRIEND Harry 3. Smith, a Teamster, Takes His Own Life Rather Than Bear the Consciousness of His Breach of Honor. Life, with the . consciousness that he had been a thief, seemed valueless to Harry B. Smith, a teamster, 24 years old. and he committed suicide yesterday morning at 9:30 o'clock. All night he had been squandering his roommate's savings and returned after the spree was over and the sun had risen to face the chid Ings of his friend at their room In the Park Hotel. Gf 572 which he had taken he had but $27 left. He sickened iinder the weight of his guilt and he determined to put himself out of the world. James Relnhart, the roommate, found Saturday night that Ills savings had vanished and knew that Smith must have taken the money. When the roisterer returned at 8:30 o'clock In the morning he found that it was so. He knew a lit tle of Smith's past, and was not too hard with him. But the after-effects of the sleepless night left Smith despond ently repentant. He had come to Port land six months ago, after wasting his inheritance of J1200, at his home, Antloch. Cal., and hoped that here, away from his former associates, he might straighten up and be a man. He wont to work for Charles J. Cook, the grading contractor, and labored hard. His employers f6und him in every way an excellent workman. Saturday night, after a long period of reform, his fatal habit came back to him and an old tendency to disregard the law of mine and thine took hold of him. He knew of the hoard his room mate had hidden and took it. During the wild night that followed he spent the greater portion. "When his friend reproached him for his breach of faith he realized the meas ure of his fall. His past rose before him end hope left him. He seized a razor, but before he could open It, his friend threw him to the ground, taking tho weapon from him. "I will kill myself some way," he said, and wont out He returned half an hour later with a small bottle of carbolic acid. He wished to drink it in the presence of the man he had wronged. But again he was thrown and the bottle was taken away from him. He left the room once more, and this time Relnhart called two other roomers in the hotel and wont out to follow him, but he eluded them. Another half hour passed and again he entered tho room, now empty. Utter despair and recklessness seized him and life lost its value. He drank the con tents of the bottle, and was dead when his friends returned. His act was de liberate, and he took time to burn his letters, and left a significant note for an uncle In California. It read: "Tried to be a good boy, but couldn't, and couldn't save money." After tho boy died tho Coroner had the body removed to Finley's undertaking es tablishment and telegraphed the uncle. ENGINEER DROPS DEAD. Elias VIckers Dies From Heart Fail ure on Ferryboat Lionel R. Webster. Ellas VIckers, a marine engineer, em ployed on the ferryboat Lionel R. Web ster, dropped dead on board the boat at 10:20 yesterday morning. He was a hale man of GO, and when he died his fellow employes thought he had merely fainted, hut Dr. Dave Raffety, who arrived in a few minutes, pronounced him dead from heart failure. It was remembered after he idled that his brother had dropped dead in a smillar manner, five years ago. Tho dead man was a member of Portland Lodge, No. 55, A. F. & A. M. His body was removed to Finley's undertaking etabllshment. Fu noral arrangements have not been made. BURIED BY FRATERNAL FRIENDS Funeral of the Late William H. Reader Is Largely Attended. The funeral of 'William H. Reader, who died at the Good Samaritan Hospital "Wednesday, where an operation for Bright's disease had been performed, was held yesterday from his late residence on East Eighth street. In the presence of a large gathering of his fraternal friends. At the house Rev. Jerome McGlade, of Mlzpah Presbyterian Church, conducted the services, when Fidelity Lodge, No. 4, A. O. U.- "W., of which he had been an officer for the past eight years, took charge and conducted the rites of the order at the grave in Lone Fir cemetery. Members of the Portland lodges of A. O. TJ. "W., Degree of Honor, and Knights and Ladies of Security, attended in largo numbers. Mr. Reader was a valued mem GADSKI PREFERS AMERICANS Famous Singer Says It Seems Like Catching Up With Summer Again to Be In the Great Northwest THE public is always Interested In the personality of its favorite, but In Mme. Johanna Gadski, who will sing to night, there Is double Interest, for the reaso'n that she Is young and pretty. Madame Is not a girl she Is married and has the dearest sort of a little daughter of 11 with her but sho Is young, and everyone knows that youth combined with good looks and good nature is a combina tion hard to beat. Add to this a glorious voice, and what more could any woman ask? Surely Mme. Gadski Is a fortunate individual. "It seems now that we have caught up with Summor again," she said yesterday while enjoying a walk about the city. "And I will follow It all the way to Southern - allfornia that will he very nice, don't you think? But I wouldn't want it always that way, for I like some real cold weather now and then; it makes us all feel better. "I have been told that the people of Portland are great music lovers," she said when the conversation turned to music "I am glad, for it is nice to sing to an audience of that kind. I have sung In San Francisco a number of times and find the people of the Pacific Coast won derfully appreciative of the best compo sitions. There Is a demand for the clas sical selections which Is astonishing, and even for the encores a repetition of the number sung is preferred to something lighter." When asked whether she preferred sing ing to a German or an American audi ence, Madame shooK her head vigorously as she said: "Ah, I could never sing In Germany as I do here. I have been here about eight years, and it seems that I belong to America, although I have my home in Berlin and go there every year. The Ger mans are just as enthusiastic over my art as your countrymen, but there Is a difference in the work I cannot explain it, but It is different. To sing In grand opera here is very hard work, but I pre fer it. There I would sing everything In ber of the A. O. U.

BEATEN BY HUSBAND. Man Gets Out of Hospital to Go Home and Injure His Wife. A scow-dweller. Burton by name, got out of the hospital for a couple of hours yesterday noon and went home to beat his wife. He has been suffering from an injured foot, and has been in the hospital for some time, and, being allowed out for a short time, on the beautiful Sabbath noon, hit his wife so hard on the side of the head that sne will probably loose her hearing. The neighbor scow-dwellers informed the police of the invalid's actions, but he had gone back to the hospital by the time Officer Isaakson sought out the cabin on thy log raft where Burton lives. He found the woman suffering from the blow, but worse from fear. "When she was told she must swear out a warrant against her husband, she said she was too much afraid of him to do it.

PORTLAND. Dec. 17. (To the Editor.) In the biennial report of Secretary of State Dun bar, tho suggestion -was mal to abolish the Agricultural College. Have been expecting that some one would object and voice their sentiments against such a scheme. Perhaps it ha been overlooked, or, maybe the recom mendation has not been taken seriously. Our progreeBlve slrter State of Washington studies to Increase the efficiency of her agricultural college, located at Pullman, and It has been recently suggested to raise Its standing and have It known as a university. The Oregon Agricultural College has done good work, and should be Improved, if possible, by an In creased appropriation, rather than abolished. If it Is necessary to Jo away with any of the college appropriations, let the normal schools be consolidated into one well-equipped, first, class normal college, instead of frittering away money in four institutions, as at present. I hope that some one who Is Interested In thia branch of education and well Informed on the subject will take it up. The sugges tion of the Secretary of State would bo a de cided step backward, and should not for one moment be riously considered by our intel ligent and progressive legislators. AN OREGOXIAN. Charged With Setting House Afire. SOUTH BEND, "Wash., Dec 17. (Spe cial.) The trial of John Hobson, who Is charged with setting Are to a disor derly house a fow weeks ago, will com mence today. It is alleged by tho pros ecution that Hobson made the attempt to bum the house because his wife was an inmate therein. The evidence Is said to be purely circumstantial The de fense has brought a number of wit nesses from Seattle, whero Hobson formerly ran a street-car, to prove his good character. Don't wait until you are sick before try ing Carter's Little Liver Pills, but get a vial at once. You can't take them with out benefit. German and that would be easier, but here I must learn them In the language In which they are written. No, it is not very difficult for me, for I seem to have an ear for languages, but it takes a great deal of time and study. I think anyone who studies the languages should have a quick ear for musical sounds if their pronunciation is to be good. Now, you do not think that I speak English with a German accent, do you? It Is true that Madamc's English Is just a little different from that of most of the oermans. One might easily Imag ine that It has a little touch of French about it. She declares that the easiest way to acquire correct pronunciation is to pick up a language instead of study ing -t. "Now, I do not read or write English at all would you think that? It distresses me to hear many Germans speak with such a queer unmusical accent. In New York I go once every year to that place you call Weber and Fields perhaps you have heard of It I go, but it always hurts my feelings to hear the way they use the German accent. No, I do . not like It." In her daughter Mme. Gadski has a fine critic whom she appreciates most thor oughly. She is a quaint little miss who gives an old-time courtesy when intro duced to grown people, and who has "picked up" English until she could al most pass for an American. T am a very strict mother," said Ma dame, her sunny smile belying her stern words. "Lotto must study her lessons every day you see I have her governess with us and at the end of the year she must have some examination like In school. I cannot tell yet about her voice, but she is very musical and has a most correct ear. Wheh she attends my con certs she tells me if I am in good voice, or if I sing any number different from some other time she has heard it, and even has suggestions to make. Ah, yes, she is a great critic and nothing es capes her notice, but I must bo strict, so the American people, who say so many nice things to her, won't spoil her." ENDS IN A GREAT UPROAR (Continued from First page.) Portland, fight the enemies of the law to the last ditch." Dr. A. C. Smith Makes Address. Dr. Andrew C. Smith said he appeared in place of Rev. Father Thompson, who at the last moment found he was unable to attend the meeting. "The young man who would have spoken would have given you a talk from his heart and straight from the shoulder," said Dr. Smith. "There may be difference of opinion on some things, but at least we are agreed that the laws should be enforced. Arouse public conslcence. Our city government Is not alone in Irregularities. If we shrink from our civic duties, we never can correct the evils that exist In them. It is necessary to become politicians. You are politicians, or you would not be here; and it is right that you should come here and express public opinion, which Is a mighty force for good in a free land like ours." Message From Jacob RUs. Rev. Dr. Wise came forward with a pa per in his right hand. "I have a message to deliver to this meeting from that dis tinguished reformer, Jacob A. Rlls, of New York," he began. "Listen to what he say 3: I am glad to know that you have a man in office who can and will enforce the law. A community could have no more direct Incentive to youthful depravity than dead-letter laws on the statute book. It Is the greatest machinery for making mis chief in the morrow that the devil's in genuity can devise. Roosevelt taught us that lesson in New York, and he got the Interest on It and we did, too, in the recent election. When all is said. It Is because his life has been one constant effort to see the country's laws enforced for the country's sake that he sits today In the White House, the choice of the people. AH good luck to you. If you keep It up, the enemy can't. JACOB A. RUS. Message Is Applauded. Loud applause greeted the reading of Mr. RUs' message, and Dr. Wise pro ceeded: "In 1SG0 parades streamed through the streets of Brooklyn, N. Y.. bearing hannere nn TfVitVi narmlo mail Hnrv Ward Beecher had better stick to the pul pit.' Now. Dr. Hill, Dr. Morrison and myself have done better than this, for we have stuck to our pulpits and brought them with us this afternoon. (Applause.) I am proud to be a citizen of Portland, In spite of some of the officials here. I come to you because I believe in civic righteousness and because I believe In the ten commandments, one of which says. 'Thou shall not steal'." Here Dr. Wise pointed toward two stenographers who were on the stage taking notes of the speeches for private individuals, and proceeded. "Tomorrow we shall doubtless he told that we are defamers of this city. But the latter are really those who make this meeting necessary because of the unrighteous slander they have uttered. We meet today as citizens, expecting neither fee nor reward. Condemnation of city of ficials! Take the late City Engineer. The best condemnation of him is his own ex istence. I don't think the Williams Chem ical Company can make enough deodo rizer to clean the Tanner-Creek sewer. (Laughter.) If Sheriff Word continues to do his duty we must re-elect him. (Ap plause) Spoke of Cleveland. "Once there was a Sheriff in Buffalo. N. X., and he emerged President Grover Cleveland because he enforced the law as he found It There Is a Governor in Mis souri today who occupies his high position because he enforced the law in St. Louis, and he may arise higher yet (Applause.) Please don't lnterrunt me with that snrt of thing, as It wastes time. What can we ao tor bherirr ord? We can back him up. A new Morrison-street bridge Is be ing built Suppose In ten years after Its completion It fell Into the river, carrying with it' 100 or 00 lives, and suppose the accident was caused by something we could prevent now; Would It not be a crime to remain silent? So with the fight against eviL This meeting stands by Sheriff Word as long as he stands for tho right He may he liable to civil suits before long for what he has done, and I hope the mon on this platform will have the courage to seo to it that tho Sheriff is not called upon for one cont of his money whoa these suits come on. Honored Henry E. McGinn. "I honor Henry E. McGinn for the ex cellent public service he has rendered (Applause.) We are told that a closed town Injures business. First, beat Bla zler and his gang, fight on and tackle something else. I suppose some of you are thinking I am going to attack a mem ber of my congregation and who is my friend. He has been Indicted for running nickel-In-the-slot machines. But I'm not Yet, I'm bitter against those gambling machines, and I wish they were all sunk in the depths of the Willamette River no, I mean the Pacific Ocean, for the Willamette River is not deep enough. We need concentration. We ought to back up Sheriff Word, day by day. The gamblers are active enough. We ought to be the same." Dr. Hill the Last Speaker." Dr. E. P. Hill was the last speaker on the list, and he began: "The other day I spent two or three hours In Seattle with a business man talking about the Mayor of that city, and the business man said: 'The Mayor Is no good. He has closed up the town. I'm in the hack business and I've lost money because there Is now but little night trade. There's no night saloon business. Oh yes! He may be right for nobody can run him.' I think Theodore Roosevelt has the confidence of the people because he has done what Is right and what Is honest What would Theodore Roosevelt do were he a citizen of Portland? He would be at this meeting. What If he were Sheriff of Multnomah County? He would be doing just what Tom Word Is doing. Of course, he would be called a reformer, a crank, but he would continue to do his duty, Just as Tom Word Is doing. And Theodore Roosevelt would be the most popular man In all Portland, just as Tom Word Is the most popular man In Portland today. Tho last city election It was an eye-opener to some and an eye-closer to some. We showed that we did not want open gambling In this city. I understand that Tom Word was recently offered J5000 a month if he would quit the prosecution of gambling. It takes a strong man to resist a bribe like that But there are greater things In this world than money. Respect Is worth more than money. If he will con tinue to enforce the law as long as he Is In office, he will leave behind him a name that will be respected and loved by his children's children. I would also include the names of the judges in our courts who have so signally honored the profession they adorn." Uproar Breaks Loose. At this stage of the game, a young man stepped forward from among the crowd of men on tho stage and read the resolu tion, tho text of which has been given. "Mr. Chairman, Mr. Chairman," said several voices at once. Thomas Gulnean arose and was greeted with: "You don't have the floor!" But Mr. Gulnean pro ceeded: "I think tho whole city govern ment is rotten. The First-street bridge" But the speaker got no further, for he was ruled out of order, and subsided. Order was repeatedly called for. John R. James suddenly appeared on the platform and said: "I make these remarks as an Independent Republican. I worked for Word and Manning. I move as an amendment that John Manning's name be included in that resolution " "Second the amendment," observed a man, jumping up In front of the house. Howell Gets at Manning. George H. Howell, a member of the Executive Board, who was seated in the gallery, said: "I hold that tho motion on this platform with reference to District If You Are CHAS.S,MbRRI3 V . ' i". .

I don't believe at this time he is entitled to be mentioned in a resolution of this char acter." "District Attorney Manning -Is .a law yer, and he has to wait until he gets his evidence," observed W. R. Horan. "Can he enforce the law without evidence? Give him time!" District Attorney Manning appeared In one of the side aisles downstairs, and was greeted with cries of: "Go to the plat form!" but Mr. Manning shook, his head and began: Mr. Manning Talks. "I am here simply as a spectator. This meeting was not called at my suggestion, and therefore I desire to say that I don't want an Indorsement at Its hands. I believe what a man has done Is his best recommendation. I have done my duty as I saw it since I have been District At torney, and did It to the dictates of my own conscience. You don't need to raise any money to defray any expenses that I may incur during my incumbency in of fice. An indorsement at your hands would not change my path of duty one . bit." (Applause.) "Question" was called, and on the amendment being put, the chairman first said it was "lost." and on people crying "Carried," in different parts of the house, the chairman said, "Well, carried." The original motion was put to the house and declared to be carried. H. W. Stone pressed forward from the platform and 6ald: "The citizens here should unite on something. There Is still a question mark about Mr. Manning. (Uproar.) If he toes the scratch, I will be with him" (Interruption.) "Don't dis rupt this meeting because w differ on a few things. Stand by Tom "Word. Give money to help his cause, if necessary ". The balance of Mr. Stone's remarks could not be heard as somebody out in front began singing, "My Country. 'Tis of Thee," and the big audience joined In the melody. THE "TRITE SPORTSMAN." Attempt to Define Term as Indefin able as "Gentleman." PORTLAND, Dec 17. (To the Editor.) In reply to the question asked in The Oregonian of December 15, "Who Is a true sportsman?" I venture, having "done time" at each of the sports herein men tioned, to suggest the following as the characteristics that should mark "the true sportsman:" Shooting. First and foremost, the "true sports man" will not hunt out of season and will never under any circumstances, in the case of pheasants, kill a hen. He will put up his owji game without the aid of beaters. He will, when wi.th a party, never take another man's bird, though, the latter, having missed with his first barrel, he is at perfect liberty to "wipe his eye." He will never curse nor abuse his dog. He will never shoot at a bird on the ground or In a tree, nor at ground game except when In motion. Apropos of this: A Frenchman was out shooting with a house party in England, when, spying a covey of partridges running to cover on the other side of the hedge, he raised his gun to shoot, when one of the party ejac-' ulated in holy horror, "Why, man, you are not going to shoot them running?" "Mais non, mon ami." responded the Frenchman, "I shall valt till they stop." That fellow .was no sportsman. The "true sportsman" will single out his bird and never shoot at the ruck, and having wounded one will use every en deavor to retrieve It Instead of leaving It to die in agony under a hush. The man who so acts is a "true sportsman"; the a Cigar Smoker Read This 1. " A 4 1 ' ' h tonotif yjyou- tHiat hertafter ' r J ' 5 OFFICE FA & LEWIS, Distributers PORTLAND, OREGON man who shoots at the ruck is a "pot hunter." Fishing. Thl3 sport, like the other, has Its iron clad rules governing the "true sports man." The law of fishing, like that of shooting. Is to' give the game a fair chance and the speckled beauties, though very shy, are, like their biped antag onists, easily 'seduced by toothsome mor sels. Tho "true sportsman" will never use any other bait than the artificial fly, trusting to hi3 investigations as to the flies that breed on the particular stream upon which he is fishing and his skill in handling them. One might as well throw a beefsteak to a fresh-water trout as a fly that it has never seen, and the man who makes use of wasp-maggots or salmon roe Is a poacher pure and simple. He is, in short, the kind of man who would see tho kid in its mother's milk. Hunting. The fox hounter, too, to rank as a "true sportsman" must observe certain well-defined regulations. He will be at the cover side In time to witness the teaching of tho puppies during the cub-hunting season, and so become acquainted with the dogs. The cub season being ended and the true fox hunting season begun, he will always be In time for the preliminary hunting of the cover and will await with becoming patience the "gone away" of the huntsman before following the hounds. He will be absolutely sure that he Is right before giving the "view hallo" and. being sure, will give it instantly, that all the field may have an equal show. He will be careful not to override the THE BEST CHRISTMAS GIFT For Wife, Mother, Daughter Sister or Sweetheart By this Sign you may know and will find Singer Stores Everywhere A small payment down, the rest at convenient inter vmla.

If hunting regularly with the same pack, he should know the voice and ca paclty of each dog and the exact value that may be placed upon each one when It "gives tongue. He will follow the hounds straight and not demoralize those who are near him by hunting holes in tho hedges, so making himself a public nuisance. He will avoid, so far as possible, break Ing fences, gates or hedges and doing in- Jury to growing crops, and will be ready and wiling to make reparation for damage, Inadvertently done. W. E. T.
