Educators and Th inkers Will Attend Fain rOREST GB0VE "WIDE AWAKE SUNDAY OPENING-INDORSED Bright Outlook for Con ferences. DR. E. P. HILL FILES REPORT He 'finds That Eastern Metiof Prom Inence Are Ready to Participate In the Discussion of Great World Problems. The plan6 for a series of conferences and congresses at the Lewis and Clark Exposition, on subjeots tending: toward the higher life, are attracting a. wide Interest and attention throughout the East- The attendance of many of the foremost thinkers, speakers and writ ers of the country Is already assured. In a detailed report to President H. W. Goode. Rev. E. P. Hill. D. D., who reeently went East as the special' rep resentative of the Exposition to ar range for the attendance of men prom inent in the world of thought, sets out that his mision Is meeting with unex pected success. Prominent men are readily accepting the Invitations. He finds the belief current among the best men that just now the "Western coun try is in a plastic condition and that the broad 'discussion of specified topics will have the effect of leaving: lasting Impressions of a highly beneficial na ture. Hence those who have been in vited have the double stimulus of a fine trip and the knowledge that much good is to be done. Sunday Opening Discussed. Ai present Dr. Hill is In New Tork, having vielted Philadelphia, Baltimore, Boston and other big cities. He has re ceived liberal space in all the leading periodicals because of the nature of his trip. The subject of" Sunday opening in particular has raised a great deal of Interest and has been given much space in the newspapers. Dr. Hill re ports that a liberal view Is taken of the Portland Exposition's determina tion to keep open on Sundays, the com ment of the press generally, being of a favorable nature. The stand is taken on every hand that Sunday could be utilized to no better advantage than by tho intellectual treats which the congresses and conferences will give and that such a course is far more laud able than the practice of keeping a great Exposition dosed down on the seventh day which is the one occasion when a large mass of workers have- tho opportunity of attending. Those Who Have Accepted. In his reports Dr. Hill says: "There will be a thoroughly great educational congress. Such men as Howard J. Rogers, of Albany; Dean Russell, of the Teachers College, New Tork; Frederick B. Pratt, of Brooklyn, and Commissioner Harris, of Washing ton, are giving the matter their hearty co-operation. There will be an unpre cedented congress on capital and la bor, the programme for which is now being arranged iby Ralph M. Easley, secretary of tho National Civic Federa tion. This conference, it Is hoped, will help the people of the Coast in avoid ing some of the costly blunders the older communities have had to suffer. The success of the civic conference is also assured. Delegates from the different Coast cities and towns will be present to hear discussions on the problems which pertain to the govern ment of cities. Clinton Rogors Wood ruff. Secretary of tho National Munici pal League, is now assisting in the preparation of a programme for this important conference. Commissioner James R. Garfield has signified his In tention to participate if his official duties will pormlt. Indorsed by Roosevelt. "The congress which Is attracting the widost interest among business men is that of the relation of America to the Orient. Of this particular con gress President Roosevelt has given an enthusiastic approval and Secre tary Taft has expressed his desire to he present and take part In the exer cises. Senator John B. Fo raker has also accepted an invitation to be present. Dr. Arthur J. Brown, of New Tork, sec retary of the Presbyterian Board of Foreign Missions, is deeply Interested In this congress and will deliver one of the addresBos. Dr. Joslah. Strong told me that in his judgment not one person in a million begins to appreciate the Pigniflcanoe of the Orient in its rela tion to America and the world." THINK EASTERN RATES HIGH Circulars Sent to Railway Officials Asking for Further Reduction. There is a -feeling among representatives of the different organizations which will held their annual sessions in Portland during the Exposition that tho railroads of the East, outside of the jurisdiction of the Transcontinental Passenger Associ ation, have not been sufficiently liberal in the matter of rates to the Exposition. Communications have accordingly been forwarded to all Eastern representatives asking a still further reduction. As it now stands, the rate is 80 per cent of double the one-way fare, plus the rate Kiven from Chicago to Portland. This Is taken as being too high. Among others, the chairman of the rail road rates committee for toe National American Woman Suffrage Association has sent out circulars urging a still fur ther reduction. It Is set out that the high rate is not equitable In consideration of the large number of people that Intend visiting Portland from the far East. DATE OF PROMOTION DAY SET CalifornUms Will Come With Large Excursion on June 12. Plans for the big California excursion to tho Lewis and Clark Exposition on the occasion of California Promotion day are progreslnsg rapidly, and the indications now point to one of the largest excur sions of the Exposition. Tho committee In charge announces that the excursion will be in approved California style and this means much, as It is a widely known fact that California does not do things by halves. On request of tho committee that a day be set apart. June 12 was officially given to California yesterday for Promotion day. The excursion will reach Portland about Juno-10, ana--the patj-itttends,to1J .T remain for several days after the big California demonstration. Connecticut has also asked for a spe cial day. and July 5 was set apart yes terday for that Btate. Tennessee has asked for a special day, and when asked for a suggestion as to the best date. Governor Frazler decided to leave the matter to Tennesseeans now living In Oregon. RUSSIANS PREPARE TO EXHIBIT St. Petersburg Manufacturers Will Uphold Honor of Nation's Products. Russian manufacturers are going to make an Independent exhibit at tho Lewis and Clark Exposition. Fifty St Peters burg business men have organized for this purpose and are now arranging their display and will ship It in a short time. In a communication received yesterday by Assistant Director of Exhibits Hardt an allotment of space is asked lor in one of the foreign buildings, and this will be allowed at once. The communication is from Georges Eger, a prominent Russian manufacturer, who is leading the movement for an In dependent exhibit. Mr. Eger states that the interests of his country demand that the world be kept cognizant of the class of Russian manufacturers and for this DurDose the display will be Bent on here In time for installation at least two weeks before the Exposition opens. The ex hibit will include furniture of all kinds, food products and every article which comes from tho Russian factories. Owing to tho impracticability of shipping glass cases for the exhibits from such a dis tance the department of exhibits Is re quested to provide for the purchase of these at the expense of the Russians. Swiss Mountaineers Know of Fair. As e Instance of the wide publicity which the Exposition has received. Al bert Hopf, of 8alom, has communicated with Exposition headquarters stating that "CHEROKEE BILL" AT THE FAIR MAN WHOSE LIFE READS LIKE A NOVEL WILL HELP PRESERVE ORDER DURING THE EXPOSITION HEROKEE BTTJV' Indian fighter. I scout, cowboy, cavalryman and personal friend of President Roose velt, reported for duty as a guard at the Lewis and Clark Exposi tion yesterday morning, and is now patrolling the grounds, looking for infractions of the law. "Cherokee Bill," whose name appears on the pay rolls as Elijah Kinkead, which Is his real name, does not find his new posi tion quite as exciting as chasing In dians or Texas cattle-thieves or shoot ing ba'nkrobbers. but then he says things may get a little livelier when the Exposition is opened and the Trail is in full swing. "Cherokee," who is known far and wide for his exploits on horseback and under fire, secured his position with the Exposition through President Roose velt, with whom he charged up San Juan Hill that time the Spaniards were extending a welcome to the visitors In the shape of leaden balls not all high balls, either. "Cherokee Bill" gained wide attention nt that time by rushing up the hill under a hall of bullets well In the van of his regiment. He was armed . with a Cuban machete, with which he hacked down the famed barbed-wire obstructions. He also car ried a rifle which he used now and then and to just what advantage a number of Spanish gentlemen will be able to offer testimony on resurrection day when that Important occasion arrives. President Roosevelt has said of "Cherokee" that he is one of the best shots and most fearless horsemen he has ever met, which means consider able in view of the President's early career in the West. However, "Cherokee's" chief claim to fame does not lie in the charge up San Juan Hill. Long before that he was known all over the Western border. Among his other exploits was the cap ture of a gang of outlaws at Wichita Falls, Tex. Alsa Bagby. a noted out law, appeared In tho thrifty little town of Wichita Falls one day. He carried a leather wallet In one hand and a six shooter in the other. With these he entered the principal bank and re quested the cashier to elevate his hands. That Individual assented with alacrity but at this Ill-chosen moment "Cherokee Bill" loomed in through the front door. Instead of surrendering, the outlaw opened fire. "Cherokee" did the same thing. When the cloud of smoke lifted the bank-robber was lying down. A hunk of lead from "'Cherokee's" weapon had punctured his heart. But 'Cherokee" was not always this lucky. For while he was a dead shot there were others In those days, and it was a case of who had the drop or, as the old Western poem goes: "Thrice armed-Is "he who has b3 .quarrel from the interior of Switzerland he has received communications from former friends asking for information concern ing the Fair. He says that among, the letters are several from mountaineers and those who rarely know what is go ing on in the world. The letters have all been answered with translated ac counts of the plans for the Exposition and of the resources of the Pacific North west. Drum Corps Will Come. The Los Angeles papers announce that a party of veteran musicians is being organized to go to the National en campment of the G. A. R. at Denver In August. It Is proposed to have 25 or 30 drummers and flfers, uniform them In colonial style, supply them with literature about Southern California and provide for their distributing it at Denver and at the Lewis and Clark Exposition at Portland. B. F. Hulllker. who holds a medal of honor for conspicuous gallantry In action In the Civil War, Is promot ing the enterprise. t Cable Ship Cannot Come. Tt will not be possible for tho cable-ship Burnslde to be in the harbor on the oc casion of the opening of the Exposition as had been hoped. Replying to tho re quest from the Exposition. Secretary of War William H. Taft has advised Expo sition Secretary Henry E. Reed that the ship is the only one available for service this Summer in extending tho Alaskan cablo from Valdez to Resurrection Bay. Individuals to Receive Credit. HOOD RIVER, Or.. March 9. (Spe cial.) Hood River fruitgrowers will endeavor to have a representative from this city in charge of the exhibit at the Lewis and Clark Exposition. "Jt Is the intention of tho Wasco County Court to let each community in the county have full credit for what ever is sent to the Exposition," says Commissioner Hibbard. "While the -CHEROKEE BILL." But six times armed Is he who gets his gun out fust." On one occasion "Cherokee" got his weapon out second and" an ugly scar in his thigh shows -the result. On another occasion a Mexican closed In on him from behind and nearly severed his head with a knife. Doctors said It was Impossible for him to recover, and a cavalry officer, under whom. "Cherokee" was serving as a scout, sent in his name among the list of dead. Thus "Cherokee's" name is now on tho list of dead soldiers In the rec ords of the Interior Department at Wash ington, for his commanding officer moved on with the column before "Cherokee" Droved him wrong by recovering. He exhibit as a whole will represenfWasco County, each Individual exhibitor and community will receive proper credit." Idaho Plans Fine Display. R. W. McBride, executive commissioner for Idaho to the Fair, and Clarence B. Hurtt, who recently held the same posi tion, arrived yesterday to eelect a site for the Idaho building. This will be used both for display and entertainment pur poses and will be one of the "most attrac tive spots on the grounds, wherever it is. Idaho was known at St. Louis for the peculiar attractiveness of its building and the quality of cordiality of its hostesses. It will be even better known here, for the state has made a liberal appropriation of $35,000, $10,000 more than was spent at St. Louis, and there Is already on hand an exhibit worth another 510.000. Beside being a place of royal entertainment, the building will contain exhibits of agricul tural and horticultural resources, forestry, mining and educational displays. Burns Cottage for the Fair. Scotchmen and others are banding to gether to nwuro the exhibition of the Burns cottage at tho Fair. Last night there was a meeting of the subscribers to the association formed, with Robert Livingstone presiding, and the committee delegated to draw up articles of Incorpora tion of which George T. Cameron is chairman, made Its report. The commit tee was then ordered to file the incor poration papers. Tom L. Johnpon, British commissioner for the Fair, said last night of the move ment to secure the cottage: "Subscriptions to the capital stock are being received with satisfactory rapidity and a meotlng of stockholders win be called for come day next week." Senate Shows Respect for Bate. WASHINGTON. March 9. After a ses sion of seven minutes, the Senate ad journed at 12:07 P. .M. today, out of re spect to the memory of the late Senator Bate. across the left side of his neck as souvenir of that occasion. Some years ago "Cherokee" surprised the country by marrying a comely and dashing young actress in New Tork. who left the stage and went with him to his Indian Territory ranch. This young woman was Catherine Beach, daughter of a cavalry Major and a protege of Sen ator Clark, of Montana. It was she who posed for the famous silver statue which Montana sent to the World s Fair at Chi cago. Ada Rehan was originally selected as the model, but the change was made because of a protest from the people of Montana who thought a young woman of that state should serve. Mrs. Kinkead will follow her husband to Portland In tho course -of tho next few MUST KEEP GLEAN Ordinance as to Streets Is Being Enforced. ONE VIOLATOR IS CONVICTED Civic Improvement Board Is Deter mined That All Obstructions on the Sidewalks Must Cease Takes Prompt Action. That the Chamber of Commerce board of civic improvement Intends to see that the ordinances of this city relating to obstructions and debris on tho streets and sidewalks are enforced was shown in the Municipal Court this morning when L. Penny, a butcher, was fined 5 for having boxes arranged In front of his place of business. Mr. Penny runs a butcher shop on Yamhill street. He has been In the habit of placing meat for dis play on boxes in front of his place of business. He was notified twice through the board that such action was not In accordance with the ordinances, but he failed to take heed of the warning. Warrants for Others. Contractors L. Litherland and Gardner and S. L. Brown, who runs a cigar store at Fourth and Alder, also appeared be fore Judge Hogue yesterday morning on the charge of obstructing 'the sidewalks. Their cases were continued until Satur day. Warrants will be issued this morn In? for Contractors A. J. Bingham, JIc Lennan, Jacobson & Bade, Briggs & Wil Hams. Patterson & Abraey. They will bo arraigned on a similar charge. Tho proprietors of a number of Chinese stores will also be arrested. "There havo been several contractors who have shown an utter disregard for the cleanliness and neat appearance of this city," said L. E. Crouch last eve ning. Mr. Crouch Is the legal adviser for the Civic Improvement Board. "We have warned them repeatedly that wo wero de termined to prosecute every one who did not comply with the ordinances, so that they cannot say they were not given a chance to clean up. Somo of the con tractors, when building, havo been In the habit of throwing earth and rubbish on the sidewalks and streets. It remains there for several weeks and then It get3 wet and becomes a permanent obstruc tion. As a result there is left an unsight ly and unsanitary pile of rubbish on the street or sidewalk just because of the negligence of some contractor. "We have had some trouble In locating the proper persons in such cases. There will be three or four contractors work ing on a building and they will all de clare that they are not responsible for the rubbish that has accumulated. The ordinance provides that there must be no obstructions of any nature on the side walks. It also provides that all signs that extend out over the sidewalks must be at least ten feet above the ground. This provision Is being violated in all parts of the city. It is even done on the main business streets or the town. In fruit stores and grocery stores par ticularly you will see glass cases and boxes extending out over the sidewalk. It will all be stopped. It may be some time before we get around to It, but the board Is determined that the ordinance on that question must be enforced by all means." Given Fair Warning. "We have given all the men who havo been arrested for having obstructions and rubbish on the sidewalks In front of their places of business fair warning said President Wheelwright yesterday. "we do not like to see them prosecuted, but if they fail to comply with the ordl nances there Is nothing else to do. We have already begun to notice tho good that has been done by the Civic Improve ment Board. People all over town are beginning to clean up their yards and res idences. There have been citizens who never realized they were violating the city ordinances when they allow rubbish to accumulate on the sidewalks. They never gave the matter any attention." The board has Inaugurated a new sys tem of warfare in its fight for a "clean and attractive city that is expected "to prove very effective. It is distributing postal cards addressed to Its headquar ters. The recipients of the cards are re quested to carry them until they see some place where the ordinance is being- vio lated as to obstructions, etc They are then, expected. o Tite. on. jthq. coriiDR.
