"It's the old-time religion, it's the old
time religion, but It's good enough for
me." They sang It, they shouted it, they
whlstled and they cried until, -worked into
a religious fervor, one elderly woman
threw her hands over her head and
screamed out hurrahs for the evangel
ists. This was the most noticeable in
cident at the "good cheer" meeting con
ducted by Dr. Chapman and his band at
the Marquam yesterday morning. Just
what the meeting was for was not plain
until after the singing of several hymns
"and a few remarks had been made by
Dr. Chapman. He then told the vast
assemblage that they had gathered to
listen to testimonials of what the revival
movement had done for Portland. Scat
tered about the auditorium there were
pjonty of enthusiasts ready to tell of
the wonders accomplished by Dr. Chap
man and his followers.
Almost the first thing after the meeting
was called to order Dr. Chapman recalled
the great meeting conducted by Rev. Mr.
Blederwolf at the Marquam Sunday and
Bald that he had some of the pamphlets
containing the sermon on the "White
Life" which would be sold In thg audience
at the price of 10 cents. Several faithful
workers started out with small bundles,
which were soon exhausted, but they se
cured more and the sale went on until
every one had had an opportunity of buy
ing one or more copies and qult a sum
of money was netted for the revivalists
expense account. '
All Districts Aroused.
Some woman told of sending out the
papers of the city to Eastern frionds to
show them what a wonderful work Dr.
Chapman was doing and he repeated her
remarks that the audience might learn
to do likewise.
Each district of the city had a repre
sentative present who was quite ready to
give a nice compliment for the particular
evangelist working In his district. Some
said that their revivalist was preaching
"hell-flre and brimstone." and another
thought that his section had the best
preacher and singer, while a third had
come 13 miles from the woods to say
that the evangelists had started the devil
out of the city, but that he was still In
the woods near his home.
From one quarter there came a man
to say that he had witnessed the greatest
religious awakening in his district that
was ever known and "do you know,"
said he. "even the Presbyterians arc"
'down on their knees In our section?"
This set the gathering of ministers upon
the stage all agog and within a minute
Dr. E. P. Hill, of the First Presbyterian
Church, was ready with a response that
Presbyterians were In the habit of get
ting upon their knees and that they had
been filling the aisles and. the rostrum
"with such for days past. Dr. Hill, as
chairman of the executive committee hav
ing the revivals in charge, then spoke
words of "good cheer" for the evangelists
Rnd the people of Portland, and expressed
the opinion that the city would be turned
Inside out before another week had
passed.
The Salvation Army man was there to
tell of Rev. J. L. McComb's street preach
ing and of two poor women that had
come through the rain to seek salvation
at the barracks last Saturday night. .
After every particularly good testimo
nial 'ihero would follow a song of praise
and loud anions. As an extra the Chap
man quartette sang Tne .Man of Galilee,"
and the evangelists themselves were al
lowed an opportunity of telling how near
Portland was to a religious awakening,
Asks Women to Aid.
The "good cheer" lasted for about an
heur and then came the sermon of Rev.
Henry Ostrom. to which most of the
women remained until long after the noon
hour. Thoughts of luncheon and home
were forgotten while the preacher was
talking in an Impassioned manner of the
good that the mothers could, do If they
would only devote their whole time to
the work of persuading sinners to to
pent. There were songs by the audi
ence and solos by Mr. Hlllls before the
meeting was adjourned.
The text of Dr. Ostr6mt sermon was
the third commandment and ho preached
a. splendid lesson on taking the name of
the Lord in vain. There were sobs to be
heard during the address as the minister
spoke of the punishment that would be
meted out to those that jswear, and, his
pjeas to tne moiners present to train
READING FROM LEFT TO RIGHT: REV.
tlielr sons not to use profanity were most
eloquent.
DR. OSTROM'S POWERFUL TALK
He Makes a Strong Appeal for the
Christian Life.
The service at the First Congregational
Church last evening was for young people
and they responded In large numbers to
the invitation to attend. The audience
was one which appealed to Dr. Ostrom.
and realizing the great opportunities It
presented, he made a most powerful ap
peal for the Christian life. Mr. Hlllls,
his singer, was also in the spirit of- the
meeting and sang "The "Voice Across the
"Wave." Dr. Ostrom chose his text with
special application to young people:
"Jesus Christ who hath brought life to
light." He said In part:
"Apart from Christianity the riddle of
human life has ho clew. We travel and
study and conduct business on modem
conditions, but we sin old-fashioned.
If we acted on tne subject or trans
portation as we do on the subject of
morals the streets of Portland would be
full of oxen and Jumpers tomorrow morn
ing. Men get drunk today Just as they
did In the days of Noah, men tell false
hood Just as Abraham did, we commit
the very errors of our great-great-grandfathers.
Surely this Is not moral suc
cess. 'Now. Jesus really brought forth to us
an Illustration of a successful life. See.
how he outlives all. Sec how he is be
yond criticism. See how his charm lasts
so that the older people get the dearer It
is. while the older they get the more
they draw away from formen pleasures
or Indulgences."
Following the service an after-meeting
was held and when the call was made
for still others who desired to take up
the true life. It received response in all
parts of the large auditorium.
MEETINGS IN NINE DISTRICTS
Evangelists Are Having a Most Suc
cessful Campaign.
The meetings of the evangelists In all of
the nine districts of the dty continue to
attract the attention of the religious peo
ple.
At the First rresbytcrlan Church last
night Dr. Chapman spoke to another
large audience upon "Judas Tscarlot," and
Fred Butler sang several solos in splen
did voice.
The Taylor-Street Methodist Episcopal
Church was crowded to the doors with a
crowd that came to listen to the sermon
of Rev. Mr. Blederwolf and the slnging,of
Harry Maxwell. An after meeting was
held and a number of conversions are
reported.
"Excuses" was the topic of the sermon
of Rev. R- A. Walton at Sunnyslde Jast
night. It is reported as a masterly7 ef
fort and resulted In the signing of over
20 cards by converts. The duets 6f O. F.
Push and wife and the solo of Gladys
Pugh were features of the meeting.
Rev. Daniel S. Toy was greeted with a
large congregation at the Fourth Presby
terian Church last night where he
preached a short sermon and Frank
Dickson sang several solos with marked
effect.
In Alblna district the interest continues
unabated and the sermon of Rev. .Thomas
Needham and the solos of Clifton Powers
attracted another, large crowd of people
last, night.
At Calvary Baptist Church the crowd
was unusually large that listened to the
preaching of Rev. Henry W. Stough and
the singing of W. H. Collisson last night
and much enthusiasm was manifested in
the after meeting.
-The 'street meetings of Rev. J. ti. Mc
Cemb and those conducted in the North
End by Rev. J. E. Snyder wore vory suc
cessful last night. Stereopticons wore
used to show tho words of songs that the
audience sang upon the dead walls and
the short sermons and testimonials were
listened to with attention.
THE EAST SIDE IS AROUSED
Dr. John H. Elliot on Christ's Mes-
sage to Laboring People.
In East Portland the revivalists are
meeting with much success in at
tracting large crowds, and the minis
ters of. the respective churches report
a goodly number or conversions."
At Centenary M. E. Church last night
Dr. John H. Elliott spoko to an audi
ence that filled every seat within tho
house on "Christ's Message to Labor
ing People." from the text Matthew
11. 28. "Come onto me all ye that
labor and are heavy laden, and I will
give you rest." The speaker said in
part:
, ."I imagine those words were uttered
as Jesus looked upon life from the
It, A. WALTON. REV. HENRY OSTROM,
physical standpoint. Possibly Tie saw
the people returning at evening tlmo
from tlfe labor of the day and noted oh
their fices the marks of weariness and
oftentimes bitterness that comes from
a life of hard physical toll, and he
knew full well that unless there is in
the heart an abiding peace and rest
which can come alone from a conscien
tiousness of God, life is apt to grow
more and more bitter."
Children's Grand Rally.
Tne grand rally and parade of the
school children under the auspices of
the evangelists was not quite so suc
cessful as was hoped, but enough to
make a lasting impression with their
cheers and songs gathered at tho First
Congregational Church yesterday af
ternoon to listen to a short talk by
Rev. C T. Schaeffer and the songs of
Harry MaxwelL The latter certainly
has the faculty of winning the chil
dren's hearts for there was not a child
present, and the church was filled to
overflowing, that was not singing
"Sunshine and Rain," and after they
had sung it through several times they
started to whistle It with Mr. Maxwell
leading. He can whistle as well as sing
and the youngsters quicky took the
cue with much enthusiasm.
When the meeting adjourned at the
church all formed In line in front of
the church and, led by a brass band,
they marched down Fourth street to
Morrison and finally to the park blocks
where they again sang and then listened-to
a short sermon by Rev. Honry
Ostrom from the text: "If these chil
dren should hold their peace the stones
would cry out." Following the sermon
three cheers were given for the band,
three tor Rev. Mr. Ostrom and Rev. Mr.
Schaeffer and another three for "every
body."
Preaches to the Unions.
At the "Union Officers meeting last
night. Rev. 'Charles Stelzle gave an In
teresting talk on the relations existing

by tho association on the present labor
conditions in Poxtland.

MAY REFUSE BOAT
Albina Ferry Craft Works
Unsatisfactorily.
REPORT TO JUDGE WEBSTER
It Must Be Put Into Better Running
Order Before the County Com
missioners. Will Accept- It
From the City.
The Board of County Commissioners
may refuse to accept the new Albina
ferryboat from the city officials, until
the boat has been put Into better run
ning order than she is In now. The
county authorities after accepting the
Sellwood ferryboat from the city were
compelled to expend $1000 for extras
and getting the boat Into proper shape,
and objection is made by Judge Web
ster and County Commissioners Barnes
and Lightner to doing the same thing,
in the case of the Albina ferryboat No.
2, which has been called the Lionel
R. Webster.
The boat before it was turned over
to the county was leased by the city
for 40 days to the Portland Consolii
dated Railway Company, and was oper
ated at Vancouver, and was reported to
have given satisfactory service. Others
say tnat the boat acted badly while
at Vancouver and was twice damaged.
On the trial trip Saturday the pump
used to convey water to the boiler did
not work well, and the engineer was
splashed all over with water and oil.
The beat does not steer well and
steam steering gear may have to bo
placed in her. The landings on each
side of the river, while 70 feet wide,
arc too narrow If the boat comes a lit
tle to one side or drifts with the
current. She can only be run straight
In. an! that Is difficult to do with a
ferry not operated on a cable. The
new boat was built by Joseph Paquet
on plans prepared by Fred Ballin. The
County Court asked Captain H. Van
Auken to examine and make a report
concerning the new craft, which he dil.
His report follows:
"The two flanges on each wheel are
set too close together, allowing too
much of the buckets to project over the
ends, so that any object striking the
ends of the buckets will break thorn
off. The rudders are set too far amid
ships and they cannot be raised out
of the water, which, when not In use.
xwlll be a hindrance In handling her,
and they are also liable to be easlly
broken by drift.
"The hull Is very poorly braced, there
being no hog chains whatever, and she
will bo entirely too? limber to be at
all satisfactory- There are other minor
defects in her construction and ma
chinery." Captain Van Auken is master of the
old Albina ferryboat W. S. Mason. The
difficulty may be solved by putting the
new boat In service in place of the W.
S. Mason on- .he cable, and running
the old boat between the new landings
without a cable. The old boat steers
well, and is In good condition".
Judge Webster said yesterday he did
not know what would be done in the
matter, except that the new boat will
.not be placed In commission on April 1,
as contemplated. She has been turned
over for further examination to Cap
tain Van. Auken " and Engineer John
Sheen.
DENIES BOAT CAUSED BREAK
Captain Says if Boom Was Properly
Fastened It Would Hold.
Captain W. E. Spencer says that the
La Camas Booming Company's logs In
the Columbia River were not made to
float away because of racing indulged
In between his steamboat the Charles
R. Spencer, and the steamboat Dalles
City, of The Dalles. Portland & Astoria-Navigation
Company. The La Camas
Booming Company has sued Captain
Spencer and the owners of tfie steamer
Dalles City to recover T331 on account
of logs lost from a boom. The plaintiff
alleges that the racing of the stcam-
CHAPMAN. II. E. DUPUT, SECRETARY TO
caused the log boom to break loose.
Captain Spencer in his answer to the
suit asserts that he is compelled to
run his boat fast to compete with the
trains of the O. R. Si N. Co. on The
Dalles route. He says the waves made
by the steamboat Charles R. Spencer
were neutralized by the waves made
by the Dalles City, and says there
were necessarily some swells. He avers
that the boom was not properly fas
tened together and to the shore, or it
would not have broken away.

Mayor Williams and City Attorney'
L. A. McNary Deliver Addresses
to the Citizens In Meet
ing Assembled. ,
.At a gathering of representative citi
zens of Woodlawn, held last night, under
the auspices of the Woodlawn Push Club.
W. T. Vaughn presiding. It was decided
to continue the fight against the mainten
ance of gravel pits in that district. Mayor
Williams, City Attorney L. A McNary
and H. W. Goddard. of the Executive
Board, were present as the invited guests
of the club, and jgaxe their advice in
public addresses. Chairman Vaughn, In
opening the meeting, spoke of the gravel
pit, nuisance and also the need of more
water. He then Introduced the Mayor,
who delivered a short address- highly
pleasing to the audience.
The Mayor set forth that In order to do
things and get things a community must
be united. Mayor Williams recounted
what had been accomplished In Portland
for the past three years In way of gen
eral Improvements, and said much of the
improvements had been made against op
position. The Mayor sympathized with
the people of Woodlawn in their tight
against the gravel pits-, and declared that
they were unhandsome and objecuonaoie.
He was not prepared to question the re
cent decision of Judge George that tne
ordinance passed the Council against the
opening of gravel pits 100 feet from the
street was unconstitutional, for he had
not examined the law fully, but he
thought there must be some remedy.
Mayor Williams announced to the peo
ple of Woodlawn. that the ".ater Commit
tee had appropriated 5260,000 for water
mains with which to supply Woodlawn,
Piedmont and the whole of the Peninsula
to University Park, and that the work
of laying the big main from the Mount
Tabor Reservoir would soon be com
menced and hastened to completion as
soon as possible. It would give the- peo
ple an ample supply of Bull Run water.
The people of Woodlawn would have to
be patient, as the demands for water
mains were coming from every direction
of the growing city. The water commit
tee, said Mayor Williams, was extending
mains as fast as possible, and had laid
more than IS miles of pipe within the last
two years.
City Attorney McNary explained the
status of the gravel-pit ordinance that
had been declared unconstitutional by
Judge George, and said that as far as
he could see there was but one remedy,
and that would be to pass an ordinance
that no gravel mined Inside the city
limits should be used on the streets.
Mr. McNary thdught such an ordinance
would hold water and put a- stop to
mining gravel In Woodlawn. He agreed
to prepare such an ordinance, and the
Woodlawn Push Club will assist in
getting it through the Council.
John Burgard and J. T. Gregg
pointed out the enormous damage that
the gravel pits were doing, and ex
pressed the opinion that unless they
could be prohibited there was nothing
to prevent a considerable portion of
the Peninsula from becoming honey
combed with excavations nd plies of
UliU
City- Attorney McNary was asked to
carry the case that had Just been de
cided by Judge George to the Supreme
Court, where it is hoped for a reversal
of the decision of the lower court. This
is the case where Joblin & Geiblsh were
arrested for violating the ordinance
forbidding mining gravel within 100
feet of the street, and Judge George
decided that the ordinance was illegal.
The chairman appointed J. T. Gregg,
"William Phillips, A. Cv Geinger, J. D.
Kennedy and John H. Burgard to ask
the County. Court to regulate the
Opening and closing of the bridge so
that people from .the outskirts could
reach the heart of the city in. the morn
ing without so much delay.
