Ax Atvfui. Crush. Seldom, if ever. In
the history of Portland has such a crowd
assembled to attend a bargain sale as
gathered yesterday at the big sale of the
dry goods, clothing and gents' furnishing
stock of the Boston Store, corner of First
and Salmon streets, which is now in the
hands of G. "W. Groves & Co., the world's
greatest bargain gli-ers. The street in
front of and adjacent to the Boston Store
had the appearance of a circus day, and
so eager was the large crowd of bargain
seekers that It was necessary to send a
telephone call to police headquarters for
assistance In controlling them to pre
vent people from being crushed and in
jured. All day long the store was one
good-natured struggling mass of human
ity, and the eager way in which the people
made their purchases, as well as the
many expressions of satisfaction on all
rides, proved beyond a doubt that they
found everything exactly as advertised.
Groves & Co. wish to announce that a
large force of extra salespeople has been
engaged for Friday and Saturday and
that they hope to be able to wait upon
the many people who were turned away
and could not be waited upon yesterday.

THAT CITIZENS' MEETING
Charles F. Lord Discusses the Atti
tude of Lane Men.
PORTLAND. Or., May lS.-(To the Editor)
In the iwue of The Oregonian yesterday it
appear that "Williams man is hooted out"
My name is used as the particular oerson.
The 'facts are that atwr a rather heated ees
lon of th so-called "Citizen's meeting," my
view appeared not to coincide with the ma
jority present In fact r may add, that the
personnel consisted mainly of Democrats and
dipgruntled Republicans, a few Socialist and
many. Prohibitionist. It was. In fact, a
7 j re meftlng.
The call, as advertised, wa for a Citizen'
Meeting, but "gag" law anad Democracy wer
In -the, majority, and people who desired to
express their opinion or to nominate or In
dorse or present for Indorsement any other
than a Democrat were, called down, even by
RepubUcane-as "petty larceny thieves," and
denominated by ome "carpet-bag" Demo
crats as "coward," and other equally Demo
cratic Vtajaee.
The meetl-nr rtn presided over by a Demo
crat "wa -was disappointed la his reercfc for
lucwUvt office. rsSicaJ-an extr?BUH-1
refuted, for come reason better known to
himself or the majority he represented, to
recognise persons upon the floor nnl they
were Democratic and "LaneUh," and he adopt
ed the "gag" rule during the meeting.
Some thoughtful "JLanelsh" citizen had the
kindness to move that I be "thrown out"
because I expressed, or rather, Marled to
expres, my respect for George H. William,
which. I presume, under the circumstances,
la truly "Lantlsh Democracy. "
The fact Is that the meeting was In no
nense a "citizens' meeting." as called for. but
simply a gathering of disgruntled politician!!
attempting to belittle the present Major.
He Is the peer of them all, and one of the
grandest characters In the whole United
States. It 111 becomes any man. whether he
be from Oregon or from any other state In
the Union, to assail the honor or attitude of
Hon. Ceorre H. Williams. It Is absurd to
deify a good physician Into a good Major
It Is unfortunate for his patients.
This city Is Republican by a majority of
over SOOO votes, and It Is absurd to think
that Republicans (unless 6ore-hcaded) are to
vote for a Democrat simply because the late
and lamented Governor Pennoyer made hi
reputation by appointing him Superintendent
of the Insane Asylum at Salem.
It was charged that I was a "Williams
man." I waa not particularly, but after the
"gag rule" adopted by the temporary chair
man denying me the privileges of a citizen
to express my vlew, and when it appeared
that the meeting was packed by Lane follow
ers and particularly after one of the gentle
men arose and expressed that the meeting
was not an "open meeting," I apologized and
withdrew.
The people of this city decided who they
desired as Mayor at the primaries apd It 111
becomes those who claim to be Republican
to excuse themselves In this manner by pos
ing as Democrats. CHAS. F. LORD.
ITS SOCIAL CONVENTION
CIT3l FEDERATION OF WOMEXS
CL.UBS IX SESSION.
Interesting Programme Presented,
Including Shakespearean Read
ing by Rose Eytlnrre.
The May social convention of the City
Federation of Women's Clubs, which was
hcia at the residence of Vice-President

one of the most successful and delightful

Federation were well represented, and
from 4 until 6 daily several hundred
guests paid their respects to the host
esses. Mrs. Rose Hoyt. president of the

baeth K. Matthews, C. A. Barnes, Butler,
McKeown, Monroe and Muessdorfer.
Shakespearean readings by Rose Ey
tlngc "and vocal numbers by Mrs. Rose
Bloch Bauer furnished a programme of
unusual Interest, which was thoroughly
appreciated. Miss Eytinge was at her
best, and her selections from ''Macbeth"
and "As You Like It" were exquisitely
interpreted and rendered. Mrs. Bauer's
beautiful soprano was heard to great ad
vantage in the large parlors of the Samuel
home, and an encore demanded and gra-
.Icously given. She was accompanied by
Miss Leonora Fisher.
The City Federation Is formed by the
Women's Club, Mrs. P. J. Mann, presi
dent; Council of Jewish Women, Mrs. S.
M. Blumauer, president; Teachers' Club.

Kindergarten (St. Helen's Hall), Miss E.
K. Matthews, president; Mothers' Club,
of Brooklyn. Mrs. L. H. Wells, president;
and John Ivy Water Color Club. Mrs. A.
H. Wlllett. president. This union of the
various women's organizations of the city
has been recognized as a factor for good
in public progress and improvement; as
many measures affecting the city at large
have been promoted through concerted
action. The absence of the president, who
has been one of the leading spirits in
public work since the inception of the
Federation, was regretted by all present,
Mrs. Samuel presented a handsome gavel,
which Mrs. Hoyt sent to the Federation
from Arizona, which was enthusiastically
received. A board meeting preceded the
rccepton to club members.

AT THE VAUDEVILLE THEATERS
Feature BUI at the Baker.
Miller, tke kjUHtouff kinf, who &ttK
the feature bill at the Baker Theater,
first mystifies his audiences with his
'miraculous feats of releasing' himself
from the clasp of complicated man
acles, shackles and handcuffs, and-then
onpenly lays bare the secret of his
science. Besides his rare exhibition, of
-skill, his haunted castle adds no end
of diversion. Following him Dr.
Warde, the medicine man. in Warde &
SImonds comedy hit. prescribes liberal
doses of genuine fun to everyone; Miss
Maiden Kelly and company give a
touching playette, with British mili
tary society settings; Jean Wilson
sings a new illustrated ballad, the. Norwoods-
combine acrobatic cits," and.
comedy in a rare mixture, and the
Bakerography concludes an unusually
strong production with new and catchy
life motion pictures.
The Grand Theater.
Female Impersonators as a rule are not
attractive. They certainly are no longer
a feature of vaudeville unless tfiey are
extremely clever. The Great Richards
stands in a class all his own and he Is so
remarkable a performer that one cannot
discover the deception until Richards him
self lets go the secret. The three Lees do
a clever sketch In which a little child
5 years old plays the leading part and
does it well. The marvelous Seymours do
some fine acrobatic stunts and Orrln Mc
Knlght as a ventriloquist possesses a most
astonishing gift. Joe Bonner sings the
latest illustrated songs and his work is
more than ordinarily bright and satis

procure any other reputable physician to
examine and report in relation to such
applicant's physical condition, a reex
amination was held by the commission
yesterday In the cases of R. J. Ellis. J.
M. C. Scallen and R. L. Phillips, who. had
previously been rejected for positions on
tho police force on account of slight
physical disabilities, and the trio were
recommended for certification to Chief
Hunt, w'hlch was done by the secretary,
and they will take the places on the
eligible list made vacant by the declina
tion of C. M. Richmond. B. P. McGinnls
and W. H. Wells, who found It expedient,
on account of holding other positions, not
to accept the position in the Police De
partment. Victor II. Dahl, another of those certi
fied to the Chief of Police-for the eligible
list. Is supposed to have left the city since
his examination, as he cannot be found,
and his place will be filled by the next in
standing.
Three applications for rc-cxaminatlon
were rejected at yesterday's session of
the Civil Service Commission, two of
whom were applicants for positions In the
Police Department and one as a fireman.
Under the rules they cannot be examined
again for six months.
To avoid all further controversy on the
subject, applicants for positions in the
Police and Fire Departments will here
after be weighed at one time in the pres
ence of the examining physician and the
secretary of the Civil Service Commis
sion. In this way the fact of any non
compliance with the physical require
ments will be mad'; known at once, and if
the applicant fails to come up to the
necessary standard in that respect, he
will be notified forthwith of his rejec
tion. This will obviate a 'great deal of
annoyance, and save the applicant con
siderable unnecessary work in case there
is no opportunity for htm.
