Notwithstanding the Trail and the amusement enterprises were open, Sunday services "were held m the Auditorium at the Lewis and Clark Exposition yester day afternoon. Dr. Andrew S. Draper, Commissioner of Education for the State of New York, and one of the most dis tinguished educators In the United States, was the speaker. He took as his subject, "The Church and Popular Education." More people were seated In the Audi torium yesterday afternoon, than attended any of the Sunday services, which were held the first few weeks the Exposition was open. There were fully 1000 people present, the entire lower floor being filled. Yesterday was the fist time that Sunday services have been held at the Exposition since the opening of the Trail attractions on the Sabbath. When the concessionaires were first allowed to operate on the Sab bath, it was generally expected that the services would be abandoned, as the min istry of Portland was bitterly opposed to the opening of the Trail. While no action was taken by the Lewis and Clark Expo sition Committee on Congresses and Con ferences. cancelling the engagements, Dr. Josiah Strong, of New York, and Rev. Charles M. Sholdon, of Topeka, Kan., re fused to speak in the Auditorium on Sun day. The two ministers who declined to delh'er sermons stated that when they accepted tha invitation extended them by the Exposition, they understood the Trail was to be closed. Owing to the refusal of Drs. Strong and Sheldon to speak, no services wore held on the Sundays scheduled for their ap pearance. Dr. Draper accepted the Invita tion of the committee before the Sunday opening of the Trail had been ordered by the courts, but he did not follow the precedent set by Drs. Strong and Sheldon, . Dr. Washington Gladden, of the Con gregational Church, of Columbus. O., is the only remaining minister who has beon Invited to speak at the Auditorium on Sunday. No word has been received from him as to whethor he will accept or de cline. It is not probable that the com mittee will Invito other ministers. Dr. Draper Is not a pastor, nor has he ever been a clergyman. He had devoted nearly his entire life to educational work, and Is a strong and earnest Christian. He Is known as an authority on rollglous mattters. Dr. Draper was for ten years president of the University of Illinois. This ho resigned to accept the appoint ment as Commissioner of Education for the State of New York. He was a mem ber of the United States Board of Com missioners on the Alabama Claims. He lias been president of the National Asso ciation of School Superintendents, and is in Portland primarily to deliver an ad dress before the Educational Congress to day. The services at the Exposition proved very popular when they were inaugurated, and yesterday's gathering, the largest at tendance of the scries, proved conclusively that the people of Portland will regret the decision should the series be aban doned. Miss Arvilla McGulro, who rendered a selection of sacred music on the organ, opened the programme. Rev. Robert Hope, of Portland, who presided, pronounced the invocation. Stuart McGuire, soloist, sang a hymn. Mrs. Frank Eberle. wife of the manager of the local press bureau at the Exposition, also sang a solo. Dr. Hope, "before introducing Dr. Draper, said that it was gratifying to be present at the renewal of the Sunday ser vices, and thnt he sincerely hoped there would bo more of them. Dr. Draper was greeted with applause when he rose to speak. He prefaced the address with a few words pertaining to his appearanco at the Auditorium on Sunday. In spite of the Trail being open, and said he knew very little about the local side of the question, and had taken no interest what ever in it. Had he been in a position to do so he would have strongly opposed the opening of the Trail. Inasmuch as he had accepted the invitation of the Ex position, he said "it would have been most ungracious on my part to decline to speak." This remark elicited a slight ripple of applause. What Dr. Draper Said. Dr. Draper's address yesterday might he termed the expressions of a layman, adapted to Sunday services. He discussed largely the relations of school and church and, while being far from an orator, is an attractive and- interesting speaker. He has a very decided and distinct man ner of addressing an audience, and holds Trvoiately the attention of Ills listeners. Hi? language is simple, and accentuated in many Instances by vivid verbal illus trations, which never fall to express clearly his Ideas and convictions. He said In ipart: "We must not put limitations upon the meaning of the word 'education.' There is an education of the heart as well as of the mind; there is an education of the body, which Is the Imporatlve ac companiment of the healthful training of the intellectual powers, as well as of the .healthful training of the emotions. Education is not confined to what is found in books or taught in schools. It would be a pity if it were. Indeed, the greater part of education comes from en vironmentfrom the influences! which bear down upon us. "Experience Is a great teacher. One may turn the rough ore Into Iron beams, or steel rails, or razor blades, or cam bric needlos, or watch springs It all depends upon the kind and extent of the treatment. It Is contact with the mater ial which determines the value of the fin ished product. It Is just eo with the human faculties. The Influence of the schools has a momentous bearing upon the development of the mind and soul; momentous In itself, and still more mo mentous because it prepares the ground, for all the other influences, and makes other contacts fruitful. All the other influences frequently outnumber and out weigh the Influences of the schools. The whole world Is relative. What we are depends very largely upon the road we have traveled, the person to whom and the things to which we have been related. National Effect of Education. "The education of the nation is .meas ured by the extent to which the life of the people has been energized. National energy is generated by the contacts which result from freedom of movement, freedom of thought, and freedom of ex pression among the people. Action pro duces power. Great movements among the people have Invariably sharpened their wits and advanced their civilization. There is nothing sd discouraging as stag nation. Slavery in whatever form to ignorance, to caste, to superstition, to kingly or military power Is the greatest enemy of education. When a nation Is in bondage of any kind the will of the Individual counts for little and the na tional thought Is weak. "Great national movements do not fol low sentiment, or passion, or caprice. They rest upon the Impulses of the heart and the convictions of the mind. They are inspired by the spirit of the Almighty God working In the lives of men. Con science movements never fail. They may be delayed, but they always accumulate in numbers as they gain In power; and they succeed in the end. "Christianity has been more potent than any other force in breaking the bonds of ignorance, superstition and caste, in which the world's people were held through long cycles of time. Education ally as well as religiously considered, the birth of Christ is the most wonder ful and consequential event In all the world's history." Pyramids Monuments to Power. Dr. Draper then proceeded to dolve in ancient history for proof in support of his Ideas, holding that while the Persians and Egyptians have left evidences of mechanical skill, the pyramids are merely proof of the absolute power of the mon arch rather than of intellectual virility among the people; that while Greece made great advances in art. four-fifths of her people were slaves to one-fifth, and that her temples crumbled because her moral, and civic conditions tvere not such as to maintain them. "We know about the Roman republic," he said, "the growth of the Roman law, and the power of the Roman legions; hut we know, also, that the Roman re public was a republic in name only; that the law was developed as the harsh In strument of absolutism; and that the strength of the legions rested, not upon conscience, but upon blind obedience to the commands of a master." After reciting the history of rollglous progress since those dark ages, and toll ing about the amalgamation of church and school wherever education rules, he continued: "National Christianity" Improves Mankind. "It might Just as well be said that the time has come In the world's progress when the masses care little for creeds. The church must keep in touch and sympathy with the great mass of the people who are leaders of thought and lovers of sport, and who keep the wheels of the world's affairs In motion. It must make them comfortable In Its atmos phere. It will find them generally sym pathetic with its faith and responsive to its teachings; and. as they are numbered among the children, they will augment Its power and increase Its usofulnoss in the world. Natural Christianity and hearty church work makes robust men and sinewy women, and they are the kind that count in the world. "The United States puts Into her schools the moneys which other nations put Into their standing armies. She Is building for the future, and, while there is always ground for solicitude, the re sults are exceedingly encouraging." IRA PERRY SMITH, PIOXEER OP 184 7, PASSES AWAY. Deceased Came With Oldest Families and Has Been Identified With the State Growth. Ira Perry Smith, better known to his frionds as "Uncle" Perry Smith, died yes terday morning at the home of his son-in-law. Dr. L T. Mason, 73S Kerby street. Mr. Smith was one of the early pioneers, having come to Oregon with the Judge Kimsey party In 1847. Mr. Smith was born in Andrew Countv Missouri. October 5. 1823. His first wife died before he came West, and their four children died within a few years of the death of their mother. Upon his arrival In Oregon, he settled on a farm In Polk County, where he resided for about 20 years, and where he married Elizabeth Price, a member of one of the best known of the early Oregon families. About 1SG3 the family moved to Colfax Wash. While in Washington. Mr. Smith served one term as County Commissioner of Whitman County. In the early 'SOs they returned to Polk County, whore he resided up to a few years ago, when he came to Portland. There were nine children In the family, of whom three are now living, Mrs. L T. Mason and Mrs. Nellie Warmoth, of Port land, and Green Smith, of Colfax, Wash. Mr. Smith, himself, was the only liv ing member of a family of 11 children. The deceased was prominent among the early pioneers. The party with which he came to Oregon included the Applcgates, the Gilllams and other families, the names of whom are familiar to all who know the history of the early days In Oregon. At the time of the Whitman massacre! Mr. Smith was one of the first to organ ize a roller expedition. The funeral will be held this afternoon at 2 o'clock at the residence of Dr. Ma son. After the services the body will be removed to Flnley's undertaking es tablishment, from whore It will be taken to The Dalles. Or., for interment In tho family cemetery lot.

Prominent educators from all parts of the couiitry are flocking into Portland, and when President Fcrrln calls the Na tional Education Congress to order this morning, it Is quite likely that he will face one of the most distinguished aggre gations of Instructors ever assembled in the United States, or any other land, for that matter. Sessions will be held each forenoon at' the Auditorium from 9 to 12 o'clock, and also on Tuesday evening, at which time stereoptioon views will be presented in the course of the address of Dr. Sokian. Admission to the congress will be free of charge, by the gate in front of the Chap man School, on Twenty-fifth street. Ad mission to the congress, howevor, does not Include entrance to the exposition grounds. Much interest attaches to the address of Dr. Andrew S. Draper, which will form one of the features of today's proceedings, not only 'on account of his general repu tation as an educator of rare attainments, but because also of the able manner In which he handled his subject at the Audi torium, yesterday afternoon.

It Is believed the opening day of the proceedings in the Educational Congress will attract more than usual attention, and that the large Auditorium building will be taxed to Its fullest capacity to accommodate the as semblage. BRIDE BUNCOES HER MATE Gets Money From Bachelor Hubby and Doesn't Come Back. Klamath Falls Express. One of our well-known bachelor ranch ers below town became tired of his single blessedness and conceived the idea of tak ing unto himself a wife. Evidently, tho girls wore not stuck on this particular In dividual, for he found It necessary to offer an Inducement in shape of 50 pieces of filthy lucre to some of his male friends to Induce them to procure a helpmate for him. These friends of his could not overcome the Inclination to play a practical Joke on their matrimonially inclined friend, and Induced an unscrupulous young woman to play the part of the bride. Mr. Fanner was notified by his friends that the blushing bride had been secured, and that the momentous event would take place Sunday evening, at a certain place on Main street. At fhe appointed time and place the farmer, arrayed In a new suit of store clothes, -and,provided with sufficient funds to defray the expenses incident to such an occasion, appeared ready to claim his intended. Fhe would-be blushing bride soon ap peared with some of the bridegroom's friends, and accompanying them was a man who purported to be a Judge of Josephine County, but who was in reality a carpenter of our town. After a short interview botween the principals the farmer declared everything satisfactory and that the ceremony be performed. With due gravity "His Hon or" tied the nuptial knot and all departed to a nearby restaurant to celebrate the occasion. Late into the night, or rather early morn, did they eat. drink and make mer ry, until a messenger appeared with a telegram for the bride. Hastily tearing open the envelope and devouring the con tents of the message with eager eyes her checks blanched as she crid. "My mamma is dying." Explaining to the disappointed husband that it was necessary for her to leave on the stage within an hour for San Fran cisco to reach. If possible, the bedside of her dying mother before It was too late, the accommodating man provided his bride with ample funds to make the trip, and. bade her an affectionate good-by. And an eternal good-bye It was, for the following day the cruel truth was gently broken to him that he had been played for a sucker. Then did the farmer become raving mad and declare he would shoot on sight all those who had a hand in the affair, but on calmer reflection he became convinced that the wisest course to pursue would be to kick himself. soak his head and go back to work on the farm, a sadder but wiser man.

MIndreadcr Returns as Hcadlincr at Popular Theater. After an abssncc of several weeks, Tatum returns to the Grand today to resume his position as hcadllner on a strong vaudeville bill. Tatum Is a psy chologic wonder. Ills demonstrations In mind-reading and telepathy are most mystifying and cause more comment and wonder than any other act In vaudeville. Tatum answers questions without having seen them, and this Is one of the many interesting feats he performs. Manager Errickson, of the Grand, will set aside the matinees Thursday and Friday espec ially for ladies, and they are requested to prepare their questions at home and bring them to the theater. Tatum will read them without seeing them. On the Wll with Tatum are the Buckeye Trio, comedy acrobats, who keep a house in roars of laughter; Hart.

Mel- vllle and Azellc will furnish the bulk of i the comedy on the bill In a clever little sketch called "Jack the Hugger," and together with Walter Perry, a monolo gulst. who comes with splendid recom mendations as an entertainer, the humor ous part of the program will receive due attention. Tarick and Lalonda are char acter artists who have good singing voices and costume themselves very taste fully. Roy McBrain offers a special num ber In "Leave Her Picture Hanging on the Wall." a pretty song and beautiful pictures. "Foxy Grandpa" Is the Staro scope's number and Is designed to please both young and old. The bill Is excep tionally strong. NEW BOOKS AT THE LIBRARY THE following arc the new books at the llbarary.

Delegates to Church of Christ Na tional Meeting Assist In Big: Portland Assembly. An echo meeting of the International Convention of tho Churches of Christ which recently convoned in San Fran cisco was held at the First Christian Church, corner of Park and Columbia streets, yesterday afternoon. The San Francisco convention was the largest In the history of the church, and in order to glvo the local members of this denomina tion an opportunity of hearing the noted disciples of the sect and the keynote sermons they preached at that session, an effort was made to secure a number of the delegates to come to Portland and speak on convention subjects, which cul minated In yesterday's successful meet ing at the First Christian Church. Sev eral of the principal delegates addroesed the local brethren of the faith. The attendance at the echo meeting comprised the congregations of all the Churches of Christ In the city, in addition to many visiting delegates, who are on their way to their homos. Owing to the number of speakers in attendance and the desire to accommodate all. they were limited to four-minute talks. A majority of the visiting delegates came this way In order to see the Lewis and Clark Exposition, and express them selves vastly pleased both with the suc cess of the convention at San Francisco and the enjoyable trip they have had to the Coast. Rev. J. F. Ghormley. of the Central Christian Church of Portland, delivered the addrese of welcome to the visiting brethren on behalf of the local churrhes. and was follqwcd by Rev. E. S. Muckley, pastor of the First Christian Church, who introduced the spoakors in their turn. Dean E. C. Sanderson, of the Eugene Divinity School, delivered an address of welcome on behalf of the Northwest, after which brief talks were heard from Rev. C. N. Chilton. St. Joseph. Mo.; Rev. O. W. Lawrence.

The moment you detect any weakness or irregularity, such as short breath after exercise, palpitation, fluttering, weak or hungry spells, pain in breast, side .or shoulder, or uneasiness when lying on left side, you should take Dr. Miles' Heart Cure; it rarely ever fails to relieve all these symptoms. If not promptly restored, chronic heart disease soon de velops, and then it only remains for some sudden strain to com pletely exhaust the heart. Thousands of hopeless cases have been cured, and if you do not try it, it will be the great est mistake of your life. "When I began taking Dr. Mlle3' Remedies I was in a very bad condi tion. I had stomach trouble, with severe, distress after eating. My heart hurt me, and I had shortness of breath, palpitation. My pulse was irregular, and my feet, ankles and hands were swollen. Every month at regular periods I had severe pain. I wrote Dr. Miles' Medical Co., and they advised me to take Dr. Miles' Restorative Nervine and Heart Cure. I soon noticed an Improvement, and I continued the medicine until I was completely cured. I feel like a dif ferent person. In fact I have not felt so well for 20 years." MRS.
