At the for mer work has been in progress for nearly two weeks. All the light iron has been taken up and 90-pound steel put down on a foundation of river gravel, which will be covered with concrete and stone blocks. Delays at the intersection of Union avenue and East Burnside hereto fore have been frequent, but should not occur often hereafter. At the Steel bridge Hawthorne avenue has been im proved up to Larrabee street, with a solid concrete foundation and wood blocks. The tracks are laid on concrete, with stone blocks placed between the tracks and rails. At the east end of Burnslde bridge the street Is paved with plank that is rapidly wearing out. Owing to the heavy traffic an effort will be made to have the street paved with something more durable. Not Yet Recognized. People in that portion of Mount Tabor supposed to have been annexed to Portland at the J una election are wondering whether or not they are citizens- of Portland. There has been no official recognition of that terri tory, and it has not yet been attached to any of the East Sidci wards. Without representation in the council, the people do not know where they belong. It had been supposed that this territory would be made- a part of the Eighth Ward and that Councilman F. S. Bennett would represent the people of Mount Tabor, but nothing has yet been done to decide the matter. Opposition to annexation stands ready to contest the legality of the election as soon as anything is done to definitely recognize the result of the vote. Fountains Out of Repair. One drink ing fountain for horses and men at the corner of Grand and Hawthorne avenues, long out of repair, has Just been restored to service. Teams may be seen drinking at this fountain almost any minute of the day. Nearly all the other fountains on the East Side have been out of service for some reason. The fountain on Holladay avenue has long since been in disuse. At the corner of Powell and Milwaukie streets the fountain has been removed and stored somewhere, although hundreds of thirsty teams from the country pass this corner every day. There are several other fountains used by the .public con stantly when In good order. A Remarkable Record. C H. Mcus dqrffer, a resident of the East Side, liv ing at 114 East Second street, corner Gllsan, had occasion to make his first protest in thirty-nine years for a miss on The Daily Oregonlan. He filed his kick thus: "Today is the first time In thirty nine years that I have missed The Ore gonlan." He calls attention to this par ticular miss. Through sunshine and rain, Mr. Meu8dorffcr had received his morning paper for nearly half a century without fall, but It dropped out yesterday morn ing, and he missed It very much. Mr. Meusdorffer Is almost as much of a land mark as The Oregonlan In the growth of Portland. Costlt Furniture, J. H. Brown, who recently purchased the dwelling of L. C Clark, on the Base Line road at Mount Tabor, is furnishing his new home with furniture chiefly imported from China, where he had been In business for a num ber of years. He brought home with him elegantly carved furniture and bric-a-brac. Included Is a carved dining-room set in beautiful Chinese teak wood that cost $5000. There are panel screens of Chinese and Japanese handiwork. Repre sentations on the panels are works of art, one showing a chrysanthemum in ivory, with sprigs and leaves carved. There are others equally artistic and beautiful. The New Shaver Schoouiouse. The Shaver schoolhousc. on Mississippi avenue. Central Albina, will be practically a new building when the improvements under way are completed. One portion of this schoolhouse Is three stories, with a basement, and contains nine classrooms. The other portion, which includes the old .building, joins the new part on the east side on higher ground and contains four rooms. It is two stories. The Shaver Is the only school building besides the High school that contains three stories, but It was so constructed on account of the size and character of the grounds. First to Get Warrants. Ex-Marshal C. R. Organ, of St. Johns. Is the first to receive warrants from the council. He receives $250 for services. The charter forbids warrants to be issued for any pur pose unless there be money on hand to pay them, or there be a Judgment against the city. In this case. In order to get power to Issue warrants, the city con fesses Judgment to the amount of Organ's claim. Other pending claims will be set tied in the same way, including bills for fire apparatus, public docks and salaries of officers. As yet the city has no revenue. Races! Races! Races! Races! Races!

Favors Drinking Fountains. PORTLAND. July 2.iTo the Kdltar.) Saris r4 with. Utorttt Of 2Ur T XV. T. Ehasahan. corresponding secretary of the Oregon Humane -Society. In which ho sasiea a timely plea for more drinking fountains In Portland, we would like to add our voice with that of the society he represent. The conditions existing are fairly put In- hS let terter. It In. indeed, easy to get "strong drink" of any kind, hut the pure delicious water, of which Portland Is Justly proud, is hard to find by the stranger within our gates. Tes. and by our own people who have to spend much of their time In our buelnexs sec tion, and the thirsty animals mutt be driven to either the Ekldmore or the Thompson foun tain, consequently comparatively few have their thirst Quenched. Well do we recall the time when our or ganization petitioned for water to be placed on the Plara. This was tinder Mayor Pen Beyer's administration. Now the beautiful Thompson fountain ministers to man and beast, and It Is well, but the need of foun tains elsewhere is apparent to every think ing man and woman. These seeded drinking fountain need sot be elaborate in design pr of very expenilve make up. The plain, simple fountain, kept in good repair. Is quite sufficient. At the headquarters of the W. C T. V.. Fifth and Tamhlll. sixth floor of the Good- sough building, there can be seen tome 300 designs, and special discounts can be secured. We trust the press ct the city will keep the subject before the people until the great need is supplied, and both man and beast can re fresh themselves easily. It surely Is a blot on the fair name of our beautlful "Roje City" to say "hundreds of places where Intoxicating liquors can 'be ob tained and very few Indeed where the famous Bull Run can be freely enjoyed." L a F. ADDITON. President Oregon W. C T. XT. SiY THE! DO HOT OBJECT CLERGY3IEX NOT AVERSE TO HUBBARD 3IAKIXG ADDRESS. Deny That They Hare Sought to Keep the Roycrofter From Speaking at the Exposition. The reported advent of "Roycrofter" Hubbard some time before the Fair closes Is supposed to be the signal for considerable concern among the reli gious people, although every local min ister approached upon the subject de nies that It makes any difference to him whether Hubbard comes or not. or how much talking he Joes at the Exposition, so It would seem that his own assertion that 21 orthodox preach ers of Portland bad protested to the Exposition authorities against his being permitted to deliver an address in the Auditorium Is based pretty much upon imagination. If not for advertising pur poses. "I have heard no objection to Elbert Hubbard speaking here on Roycroft Jay," said Rev. Clarence True Wilson, "or at any other time, nor am I aware of any concerted action among the local clergy to prevent him from doln? so. He is a brilliant man, intellectually, and has expressed some earnest thoughts upon live topics." "So far as the Elbert Hubbard matter is concerned," said Rev. E. S. Muckley, "I do not believe there has been any movement among the ministers of this city to prevent him from speaking at the Exposition. They have got too much sense for anything of that sort, and bis alleged statement that such Is the case must be based upon Imagina tion, or perhaps misquotation. I con sider that he is a very able man In many respects, although he la undoubt edly mistaken in some of his theories." Rev. J. R. Wilson, chairman of the Lewis and Clark congresses committee. said that there might be individual pro tests against Hubbard speaking, but If so he had not heard of them. The com mittee of which he is a member has to do with the civic, educational and his torical congresses, besides being In charge of the religious services on Sun day afternoons at the Exposition. He stated further that there were many congresses outside of anything his committee had to do with. Rev. E. I. House knew of no move ment among local clergymen to pre vent "Roycroft" Hubbard, or anybody else, from speaking at the Exposition, and scouted the idea. Rev. J. E. H. Simpson said he was not sufficiently familiar with the merits of the Hubbard case to be able to express any opinion whatever. MILWAUKIE CLUB RUNNING Officers of Suburban Town Await Result of Action. As far as outside appearances Indicate the Milwaukie Country Club House con tlnucfi to be operated the same as be fore the ordinance authorizing Its license was repealed by the Council. Announce ments are made in the papers that race bulletins are received there. A conspicu ous sign on the Milwaukie road points the way to the club house so that the "elect may not stumble or fall to find It. Justice J. W. Graslcy before whom M. G. Nease and Isaac G ration were bound over to the grand Jury. Raid be supposed that Inas much as Portland permits pool selling at the Irvlngton track the owners of -the Milwaukie Club House will continue to do the same. "I suppose nothing can be done toward closing up the club house. said Justice Grasley, "until Nease and Gratton have had their trial. The reason the Milwaukie Council repealed the ordl nance authorizing pool selling was be cause the officers of the town were afraid of action against them. I am not sure that they nre not liable anyway It the case goes against Gratton and 3s ease. VETERANS ANNUAL REUNION- 3L A. Ross ,Post, Gresham, Flans Five-Day Campflre. M. A. Ross Post. G. A.

CLERGYMEN ARE A UNIT Declare That the Exposition Manage ment Let the Case Go by De- . fault In the Courts and Will Not Profit. Two questions of considerable Im portance to the local clergy have arisen within the past few days, concerning which there seems to be quite an under current of public attention. The decision of Judge Fraxer opening the Trail 01 tne Exposition to the Sunday crowds has to do with a great deal of ministerial dls satlsfatcion. Clergymen of this city are a unit In their opposition to the opening of the Trail on Sunday, but figure that It does not do any good to raise any further objection, as the courts appear to have taken, the matter out of their bands. Most 01 the ministers allege that the Exposition of ficials put up a weak fight against the efforts of the concessionaires to open the Trail, and some of them score the man agement for catering, as they put It. to an element that cannot possibly do them any good, while they are liable to alien ate, to a certain extent, the patronage of the better classes. One of the local cler gymen charges that a resort up the river will capture all the Sunday crowd any way, and that the Trail does not possess the right kind of attractions to compete In that direction. The subject was inci dentally mentioned In several of the ser mons. Rev. J. E. H. Simpson, pastor of St. Mark's Episcopal Church, in discussing the questions at Issue yesterday said: "For a variety of reasons. I am very much opposed to the opening of the Trail on Sunday. It ought to bo closed." Rev. Clt-ence True Wilson, pastor of Grace M. E. Church: "I am decided ly opposed to opening the Trail on Sun day, and think the Exposition manage ment has made a serious mistake by ca tering to any element that would ob literate all religious observance of the day on the grounds. I understand the officials practically let the case in court go by default, although I was not here when the matter was tried. That Is the general Impression, however. Nothing will be gained by Indulging this class, as they cannot compete with the 'Oaks for the Sunday crowds, and I am sure the Expo sition people are taking chances on of fending the better clement and losing a lot of patronage that way." T am not In harmony with the Idea of keeping the Trail open on Sunday." said Rev. E. S. Muckley. pastor of the First Christian Church. "That Is all I wish to discuss about that feature of the situa tion." Rev. E. L. House, pastor of the First Congregational Church: "I think it was a mistake to open the Trail on Sunday, and am convinced the Exposition authori ties let the court proceedings go by de fault. I was satisfied that Judge Frazcr would decide that way from the start. What the Fair management ought to have said to the concessionaires Is. 'you either shut up on Sundays or else we will close the gates.' There are quite a number of prominent Congregational min isters coming here from various portions. 01 uic couuu', ana x unacrsiana mat other denominations are almost as well represented in that respect. They made their arrangements about coming when it was understood that the Trail should be closed on Sunday, so I do not know whot effect this new phase of the situa tion may have upon their movements. The four principal clergymen of the Con gregationalisms who are to speak on va rious occasions In the Auditorium are Rev. Sheldon, of Topeka. Kas.; Rev. Washington Gladden, of Columbus. 0 moderator of all the Congregational churches of America, and who achieved recent fame by his attacks upon the Rockefeller 'tainted money proposition; Dr. W. J. Dawson, of London. Eng., a great friend of Dr. Xewell Dwlght HIHis. Henry Ward BeecherVs successor In the pulpit, and Rev. Joslah Strong, of New York, author of the famous work on 'Our Country. " BISHOP THOBURX'Sf WORK. Ho Is Appointed President India 3IissIonary Jubilee Commission. Bishop James M. Thoburn, now of Port land, has been appointed president of the India Missionary Jubilee Commission, whose business Is to prepare for celebrat ing the first half-ccntury of mission work In India. The last General Conference of the Methodist Church appointed twenty-five members of- this commission, preachers and laymen, with Bishop Tho burn at Its bead. September 23, 1E5S, Dr. W. S. Butler landed In South Asia and started his work In India- November 19, which has now been carried on for forty-nine vcars. Next year will finish the first haff-cen-tury of this mission work. At the con clusion of the first half-century there will be Jubilees held In this country. This commission proposes to raise by Septem ber, U05. SSfifiy) for new work In India as a fitting sum with which to start on another half-century. Bishop Thoburn wm oevote nls time to this work. DR. SHORT ON" THE TRAIL. He Denounces Sunday Opening as Violation of Agreement. Rev. Francis Burgette Short preached a sermon at the' Taylor-Street Methodist Episcopal Church last evening relative to the recent decision of Judge Fraxer which Is to permit the shows on the Trait at the Lewis and Clark Fair to open on Sundays. Dr. Short severely criticised the finding of the Judge and the Exposition officials as well, for. in his estimation, the permission to open on the Sabbath was a direct affront to the church people of the city. Dr. Short opened his remarks with a eulogy on Jason Lee and his followers. who were the first to spread the Gospel In the Northwest territory. Continuing Dr. Short carried his sub ject down to the present day. and after a few remarks about the beauties of the Ex position and the event it commemorates. be said in part: "Can one compare the shows on the Trail with our theaters? If so. theaters have changed sine the days when I en Joyed them. Some of these exhibitions on the Trail are not any worse than the Oaks, the saloons or the dime shows. but this does not Include all the shows at the Fair. For instance the trained, animals are as Inter esting and instructive an exhibition as can be found anywhere, and. indeed. I shouldn't care a particle for a husaaa being wbo does not love animals, but then the other shows of the aaorc sug gestive variety which contain nothing whatever In the educational line, and these are the principal attractions that are howling about lack of patronage. Now in approaching the end of say remarks I want to say that the zseasest thing & as f to in. Sdt. bxa3c tr& laWr f ellow-raan. and this Is just what the Trail showaaen and the Exposition 08I clals are doing when they attempt to open these attractions on Sunday. When this grand Exposition was opened the concessionaires signed an agreement In which they bound themselves not to open their attractions on the Lord's day. and now they desire to become dissolved from this agreement. A local Judge sitting in Judgment on the appeal of these conces sionaires has decreed that the opening of the same on Sunday Is not unlawful. I believe the Judge has strained a point In this decision, for I do not think he has any Jurisdiction In the matter. Why should an outside party be called upon to decide a point for the Exposition au thorities? Are they not capable of mak ing their own laws and governing their own concessions? When a corporation has no right to make Its own laws and govern Its own concessions, it has gone to smash." With a few remarks In which he ex horted his parishioners to do all In their power towards making the Exposition a success. Dr. Short concluded his sermon. Talks on Forbidden City. Rev. Charles A. KlUIe delivered an in teresting lecture to .a large audience at the First Presbyterian Church last night upon the subject of the "Siege of Pekln. the Palaces and Forbidden City." and the present status of mission work In that portion of China. The address was illus trated by stereoptlcon views taken by the speaker, many of which related to existing conditions in the far Interior of that country, and portrayed sections here tofore unknown to civilization. At the close of the address many curios con nected with the siege of Pekln were ex hibited. Including shells, cartridges and the first gun captured by the troops dur ing the defense of the Legation, Rev. Mr. KlUIe having been present upon this oc casion, and having been afforded an ex cellent opportunity to secure some splen did photographs of the surroundings. He will lecture at Z-JS) next Sunday afternoon In 1. JI. a A. hall. CHITY BEGINS AT HOME CHARLES F. LORD COSOIEXDS JUVEXILE COURTS. Believes Foreign Missions Represent Misdirected Effort and Suggests Opportunity Among Youth. PORTLAND. July 3). (To The Edltor. The Juvenile Court Is the first step taken In the right direction for reformation of local moral conditions. Similar steps have for years obtained In the East under the auspices of those sincerely and Intelli gently Interested In the advancement of good morals and Christianity at home. It has to me, always been a source of great surprise that people charitably In clined, Imbued with a desire to do good in this world,, and possessing the means with which to accomplish that end. should by generous contributions to foreign mis sions, attempt to turn Buddhists, Mo hammedans, or even worshippers of wood en gods from the teachings of their fore fathers, and ignore the conditions exist ing within a stone's throw of their own homes. Circumstances have precluded a long-cherished plan on my part, which It Is unnecessary to state herer-not of punishing the wicked, but of teaching the young boys how to becomc-good men. For the fact still remains you may model the young, but not remodel the old. In other words, you may, by proper teaching, bring up the children to be good men and women, but the record of human reclama tion furnishes few Instances In life. "An ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure." and It Is well Illustrated In molding the character of the rising generation. Fathers and mothers who al low their young sons and daughters to stay from home at all sorts of hours and with any and all sorts of company, :an expect nothing less than that they may visit all sorts of places and fall Into evil ways. It is the carelessness and negli gence of the parents that should be pun Ished not the children. Though sinning without knowledge, the curse follows the child throughout life and yet It Is the fault of those who fail when It Is yet pos sible to Interpose, be they parents, neigh bors or citizens, and assist In guiding the young Into the path of rectitude. As attorney for the Law and Enforce ment League a few years ago, I had the privilege of seeking to enforce some of the good laws, passed In the Interest of morality. Owing to the open opposition all the leading divines in the city, save two sensible men, my purpose came to naught. If one-half of the money contributed by the people of excellent Intentions to foreign missions was devoted to home missions and expended in proper channels, what a world of lasting good would be accomplished to our country and our selves? Take the case of Miss Stone, captured by Bulgarian brigands a 'few years ago. She was a foreign missionary attempting to convert Mohammedans to Christianity. and for whose ransom nearly $100,000 was paid contributed by religious people and societies. Could she not. had she exer cised the same zeal, and visited the slums of our large cities, have accomplished more for the upbuilding of humanity? She could have found boys with evil as sociates, girls without proper parental care, the very ones who. through this un healthy diversion of public attention, nil our penitentiaries and brotnels. Foreign missionaries are living In for eign lands in fine houses, waited upon by numerous servants, with all the luxuries that life gives, from the contributions out of the pockets of good people, ob tained by exhortation and prayer of high-priced divines, while If the same contributors but stood upon the comers of certain streets in our large cities they mlght see children In filth and rags, with no means to obtain an education, and hear their cry of hunger and the despair ing wall of outraged virtue. Should not our duty and charity first be performed In uplifting our children s associates and of our own race? CHAS. F. LORD. AN HEROIC DEFENSE. Beating Off Indians in Red River Land. Exchange. A detachment of six men was carrying dispatches from a command near Red River to Camp Supply. Of the six. two were scouts. Amos Chapman and William Dixon. The others were cavalrymen. Far from any refuge, they were surrounded by nearly 3s) Indians. They sought shel ter In a buffalo wallow, and prepared to hold their ground. The attack came at 6 o'clock In the morning, and the long, long day stretched before them. In the first rush, four of these six men were wounded. Private Smith mortally so. The other hurts were severe- They were hemmed In on all sides In an open plain, and were outnumbered almost 39 to 1. One of the scouts, while a severe fire was being poured In at them at close range, succeeded In throwing up a scanty Intrencbraent with his bojcSe knife and his bare hands. His comrades held the Kiowas and Comanche off until this lit tle help was ready as a refuge, and they moved Into the trench, the wounded walk lag with brave and painful effort. AlthoHgh Private Smith was woaaded unto death, he sat upright In the trench to coaceal his crippledcondltlon from the fee. Tram early morning until night, this laaadfai of five men was ander aa almost constant Sre. often at sch sfeert range that they could bring their pistols into play. Thus they fought for their owa yM ax liafagsirt t4r dywg owunoe without food, and for drink only a little muddy rain-water mixed with their own blood. They killed more than & dozen In dians and wounded above a score. Relief came that night, but it was 36 hours after their first attack before med ical aid and food could be given them at the nearest post. Private Smith died be fore camp was reached. Every m man was wounded. Scout Chapman severely, and Scout Dixon several times but not dan gerously. This band of four soldiers and two scouts were of those who had been fighting and marching for weeks amid the most dreadful privations. They were worn to skin and bone, but their souls were as "big as all outdoors." and they flinched at no odds under heaven. BANK FAILURE. C. A.

The stork visited the Bronx Zoo last week and worked overtime In the appar ent effort to distribute babies with perfect impartiality. On Monday and Tuesday 20 wolf cubs made their appearance, in four litters, and sbout the same time the buf falo herd was presented with three calves. the pride of as many mothers. The green monkey, a species rarely "seen by abste mious folk, gave birth to a wee youngster. the only one ever born In captivity. The monkey baby clings close to Its mother while she moves about the cage, and Curator William T. Horn day says that It will have to be taken from the cage to save its life. The last visit of the stork was to the llama herd, where a proud mother was found nursing the first baby of her kind to be born In this country. All the babies were welcome except the wolf cubs. The zoo has so many of that tribe already that the new arrivals were rather more of a problem than a Joy.
