East Slslith and SIxtn, all the vacant blocks along Grand avenue are being covered 10 leet deep with piles of slabwood, and this week the vacant block between Grand avenue and East Sixth street was thrown open to the entry of the slabwood teams for the overflow. Residents in that vi cinity are wondering where the vast ac cumulations will end. Piles of slabwood confront them on all sides. Jost how many "thousands of cords have already been piled up on vacant property can only bo conjectured, the residents say, but think that even the billboards, with their flaming stiver Us ements, would be a relief from the acres of slabwood.

With three tickets already in the field for the municipal election In St, Johns for April 2 next, politics in that city has assumed a strenuous condition. There may be another ticket nominated this evening at a. mass meeting which has been called to convene in the laundry building. The third, the Independent ticket, made its appearance in the field yesterday by petition. It follows: Mayor. W. H. King; Recorder, M. F. Tufts; Treasurer, F. W. Valentine; Councilman: First Ward, Daniel Brecht and L. A. Crane; Second Ward. C W. Potter and W. C. Walker; &t large. P. J. Peterson, G. H. Carlson and A. S. Douglas. Fred Valentine Is also on tbo Good Gov ernment ticket. C. L. Thompson Is on the Good Government And Citizens' tick ets for Councllman-at-large. M. F.Tufts It on the Citizens' and the Independent tickets. Just what the -mass meeting will do this Thomas J. MonahnTi, Nominated on the CttUeeV Ticket for Mayor. evening can only be conjectured, but It may be that It will Indorse the Inde pendent ticket headed hy W. H. Sing, and it may put out another ticket head ed by A. S. Douglas. The resolution carried at the mass meeting- held Thursday night, which nominated Thomas J. Monahan. for May or, pledging all who took part In the meeting to support the ticket, may not be effective. A resident who, for prudential reasons, docs not want his name given says: "While I do not question the patriot ism and good faith of the men who brought about the adoption of the new charter and Incorporation in the first place, I think they have acted unwisely. The spirit shown. In connection with the coming municipal election explains what we may expect right along. It is my con viction that St. Johns should never have Incorporated In the first place, and now we have a charter that would be suited In most respects for a dty of 50, 000 population. I think it would be good Judgment for St. Johns to Jour Portland, and not undertake 10 run a city govern ment, with all the attendant evils ot municipal politics, of which we are just beginning to get a taste. St. Johns must at once Issue a lot of bonds, from 510,000 to $23,000. to pay for fire apparatus pur chased, 'for the lot for a city hall. for & public dock and for salaries, which. though small, must be paid.

Marion Craig Vyentworth, the Lecturer, - SPEAKS" AT THE HIGH SCHOOL Give Some Ideas Which Are New AHke-to Pupils and--Teachers, and Tells of the Importance of -Imagination." rri To an audience composed of fully SCO teachers and pupils, Mrs. Marlon Craig Wentworth, of Boston,! yesterday after noon delivered a lecture on the art of teaching reading, at the Portland High School. Mrs. Wentworth Is a sister ot Miss Alice Craig, a teacher In the Eng lish department at the High School. In the course of her lecture Mrs. Went worth gave an Interpretation of correct reading which was very Interesting as well as Instructive. Her pronunciation Is so perfect and she becomes so enthu siastic when reading that it seems as though she were describing a scene from real life. Mrs. Wentworth speaks In a low tone, yet hex voice Is so clear and penetrating, out nevertheless soft that 1L- couid be plainly heard in all parts of tho large assembly room of the High School. "I will only tell you about the funda mental principles at the art ot reading," said Mrs. Wentworth when she began her lecture. "To cover thoroughly the field and possibilities that are offered hy this art would take several months." The teachers looked surprised- They thought they knew all about reading, but this statement, although It came from one who has been making a study of reading for years, startled them. "It is surprising how little is known about the correct teaching of reading In the public schools of this country," con tinued Mrs. Wentworth. By this time unrestrained amazement and astonlahr znent was written upon the countenances of her listeners. "Even when pupils are reading tho most thrilling descriptions of scenes or occurrences they pronounce the words in mechanical sort of way as though they were multiplying" figures. They fall to- realize or grasp tho idea and life of the article. One ot the hard est and most trying tasks of college pro fessors Is the teaching of correct read ing to the pupils recently graduated from the public schools. "Words are symbols of life. The vari ous things and figures wa see in print are meant for the ear. They are a record of the experience and excltejnent and nar ratives taken from actual life. To get the true meaning one must dig down Into the printed page and catch the trend ot imagination. Impression precedes ex pression. When you gel the expression of an article you can read correctly. The faculty of imagination Is one of the fore most essentials of the human mind. All the great inventions and works of litera ture are due to imagination." Mrs. Wentworth in a heart to heart tnllr to thtt tejwifTit sutVfA Yinvr imbt nf them could imagine they heard music, i Nearly every hand In the audience went up. "Oh." said Mrs. Wentworth. "Al most anyone can Imagine they hear some popular tuno or march, but how many of those present can. recall to their memory some part from classical music" Only three women stuck up their hands. TELI5 OF MYCENAE AND CEETE Dr. R. B. Richardson Speaks of a Pre-Hellenlc Culture. Dr. Rutus Byam Richardson gave the last of his lectures on pathology .at the library last evenlngr "Mycenae and Crete" was his subjecC He said in part: "The picture that we bad of Greek art SO years ago was of an art that began with rude and almost grotesquo attempts to portray men and animals, and finally went on to almost if not quite 'absolute perfection. But since then it has been discovered that a splendid "bloom of art preceded all this, and that the sew glory was a sort of renaissance. "This old art. which is usually called Mycenaean "because It first appeared at Mycenae, in the excavations .of Dr. Schliemann, has -a right to be called Greek art also. "Dr. Schliemann was after the body of Agamemnon, and stumbled upon some thing vastly more Important. "A beginning having been made, My cenaean art kept turning up everywhere in Greek lands. Vases, gold ornaments, statuettes, and wall paintings, were its principal material. In fact, a whole civ ilisation was unearthed, which surprised the world, although indications of it had been given in Homer; but these had been set down as the poet's fancies. "This civilization was soon approxi mately dated by the discovory at Mycenae of Egyptian objects, like scarabs and bits of porcelain bearing the names of Egyp tian Tangs. In Egypt also were found vases from Mycenae showing close Inter course between this older Greece and EgypL The Mycenaean bloom lasted from 15C0 B. C to 1100 B. C, and was snuffed pout by invaders, probably Dorians; and four centuries followed-before the puny beginnings of what we can Greek art again appeared. A few threads span the chasm. There is a pertain kinship be tween the two periods bf art which marks them as two phases of the same art, "Wlthjn the last seven years extensive excavations In Crete have brought to light such splendid palaces, wltn their con tents, that Mycenae Itself now appears to be no longer the center, but is on the circumference of this civilization. King Minoa,' of Crete, who, as Thucydldes re cords, was the first to establish a sea power, is now no longer a myth. His famous labyrinth is now exvacated by Arthur Evans, an Englishman, and is seen to be a gorgeous palace "Minos palace at Ehossos is surpassed In majmiflcence by another at PhaesLos. on the" south shore of the Island. These great palaces have no walls to protect them, which shows that the Kings who lived In them controlled the sea and feared no Invaders. "Wherever .one digs In Crete old cities of this period turn up; and. their founda tion is dated hy their contents as far back as 000 B. C Our countrywoman. Miss Harriet Boyd, has played an hon orable part In excavating several such olaces. "The great museum at Casdla is rapidly filling up with objects so full of beauty. life and vigor that one wonders at the sight of them and exclaims, 'Can these things her,r BACK AT THE OLD STAND.

Transmission 'Lines Throughout "the 1 " . Willamette. Valley. OREGON Crrr. Or., March 17. (Spe cial. The Portland General Electric Company has filed petition in the Coun ty Court asking- for a. franchise oyer the county roads between Oregon CJty and Aurora for the transmission of electrical light, power and energy. It will ask for a similar franchise over the Marion county roads between Aurora and Salem. The company will erect an additional gen? erating plant on the east side of the river at Willamette Falls this year, and intends to supply the Willamette Valley as fax south as Salem with light and power. The construction of the new power plant will begin during the low-water perletl this Summer. Ten thousand five hundred horsepower will be Installed, and addi tions wui be mane as fast as the demand justifies the increase. The Portland Gen eral Electric Company now has 12,000 horsepower from the station on the west bank of the Willamette Falls, and will soon have the same capacity from the steam plant In Portland. In 1906- it will have 7000 horsepower from the Oregon Water Power Sc. Railway Company station on the Clackamas River. The foregoing telegram was shown to tho ofilcials of the General Electric Com pany in the city, who confirmed It. They said that the purpose of the company in building these lines was to distribute elec trical power throughout the Willamette "Valley. The power which will bo used above the Willamette Falls will come altogether from the new generating plant to be built ok the east side of the river at the falls. ITS SPIRITUAL TEEBUTARY. Ail the World Indebted to ' israel. Says Dr. Wise. The topic chosen by Dr. Stephen 8. Wise for his Purim sermon last night was "Israel and the Nations; or. Stooping Not to Conquer." The story on which Dr. Wise s address was based and the example held up to his congregation are contained In the book of Esther, with Mordecal and Queen Esther as the central figures, and this story and characters he found, typical ot the Israelites and the world. "The early part of that book.", said Dr. Wise, "finds Mordecal and Esther stoop ing to conquer; the latter part finds them refusing to bow down and they would not kneel. In the first part they failed, but In the second by not stooping they con quered. Their refusal to bow to the Image set up before them was not as has been stated an act of Insolence, but was one ot highest courage and deepest piety, since. "Israel In its relation to the world must not stoop to conquer. It conquers not when It does stoop and conquers when It does not stoop. To stoop even though to conquer Is a symbol of the abandon ment of principle. "I say tonight that Israel Is the con queror of the world. I hold tonight and believe, in my heart that the world 19 spiritually tributary to IsraeL Israel Is the conqueror of the world, yes, con queror In the true sense, not by ieat of war, not in name but In fact and in act. Israel, by not stooping to conquer has left an Indelible- stamp and lneffacible im pression on the world's civilisation. "Whom does the world respect. They say all the world loves a lover; but equal ly more all tho world respects a self- respecting man and despises .the one who is faithless and who Js - deserted of his race and religion and principles, the man wep stoops to conquer." MISSOURI SOCIETY - ALIVE. -.tfve Steps Are Taken for Enter tainment of Guests. une ussouri society look on a new lease ot life at a meeting held last eve ning at the. Chamber of Commerce. There were only about 2o members present. At first tney seemed rather indifferent far as the success of the soderwas con earned until some one suggested that the organization better be disbanded be cause bf the' lack of enthusiasm and in terest, It was also stated that the other state, societies were making rapid pros rees and many of them were -far in ad vance of the Missouri Society, although toey were not so oia. This .caused an uproar and commotion in the ranks of the Missouri an, -who did not Uke the Ides, of the people or Other states setting ahead ot them. They .seemed to think that the word. Missouri stood for sU that was progresslveness. If they filled to land Missouri la the front as to the eatertaJsuseat of the .guests wko will cone to the Letrls and Clark Exposition this 8uaaa-, they could not call theaBselvsc true Miss outran. The honor ef the .old stale had to be upheld, so It was finally decided to take v&crous steps to increase the society's membership. It was stated that there were, probably saore people from Missouri In Oregon than from any other part of the country. It was announced at the meeting that W. D.
