Opening Lecture Success. The open
ing lecture of the course by the Sellwood
Library Braneh Association, Tuesday
evening, by Rev. Henry Marcotte, on
"Robert Browning," was a gratifying
FUccess. It was given In the library
room, which was packed to the door, and
many, crowded the sidewalk In front.
President A. N. Wills presided, and made
some opening remarks, calling attention
to the work of the Library Association,
and asked for donations of magazlno? for
the tables. He then introduced Rev.
Marcotte, who gave a very fine analysis
ol Browning as a poeL He said, among
other things, that it was common report
that Brovwilng was not understood, but
Mr. Marcotte said it was not Browning's
cbscureneM, but rather the fault of his
readers. Browning, he said, left some
thing for the imagination to fill in. He
struck the ' anvil, and the roadcr must
see the sparks. It was a finished, hlgh
claa3 lecture. Mrs. Johns Tynan was in
charge of the music. Miss Isom. of the
Portland Library, was present, with two
members of her staff. She spoke of
Browning, and gave a list of books on his
life, and brought with her several books
bearing on his work. The next lecture
will be given by Rev. H. H. Pratt on
"Sidney Lanier," In the assembly-hall of
the Sellwood School, November 2L which
will be provided by the Board of Educa
tion for the remaining lectures.
Offers Prizes for Essats. The Ore
gon Society of the Sons of the American
Revolution will offer two sets of prizes
for patriotic historical essays. For stu
dents of the public schools of the state,
the prizes are $25, $15 and $10, respectively,
for the first, second and third best essays
on "John Paul Jones" and on "Domestic
Life In the Time of the American Revo
lution." The conditions of the competi
tion will be given in a circular. To the
students of the colleges, academies, sem
inaries and normal schools of Oregon,
prizes of $60 and $40 will be given for the
first and second best essays, respectively.
The subjects and conditions will soon be
announced. The generous donations of
the Hon. C. C. Beekman and of Dr.
Henry "Waldo Coe enables the society to
offer the collegiate prizes.
Will Not Incorporate. J. V. Beach,
attorney for those who would incorporate
Montavllla, yesterday withdrew the peti
tion before the County Court asking for
a vote on the subject. The reason for the
withdrawal was that strong opposition
has developed, so that It was considered
unwise to go ahead. The cause of this
opposition is attributed to the increased
water supply that has een afforded since
the city sells the Mount Tabor "Water
Company 50,000 gallons per day. Since
this water was secured, the supply has
been ample for domestic purposes. As It
was abundant water that the people
hoped to obtain through Incorporation,
the prime reason for the movement has
vanished.
Confer "With Manager O'Brien. The
committee from the East Portland Im
provement Association, consisting of G.
C. Flanders. Joseph Buchtel and Council
man John P. Sharkey, will arrange for a
conference with Manager J. P. O'Brien,
of the Harriman lines, this week, con
cerning the depot matter. There has
been no definite announcement as to what
the management of the Southern Pacific
Railway Company will do regarding the
establishment of a pas3enger and freight
depot for the people of the East Side.
Mr. O'Brien says that no decision had
been reached up to a few days ago as to
what course would be taken.

Congratulates Chief Gritzmajcher.
Having lent all her influence toward his
promotion, Mrs. Woodcock appeared at
police headquarters yesterday afternoon
and congratulated Acting Chief Grltz
macher upon his ascension to the throne
of power there. He was overcome with
emotion at her words of praise. Having
but little time to spare on any one mis
sion, Mrs. Woodcock hurried up the street
and disappeared in the throng.

his possession was found a lot of silver
spoons, thought by the officers to have
been stolen. He said they were found by
him under a log on East Bumslde street.
The officers desire to ascertain to whom
the silverware belongs.
Oak Street Needs Paving. Municipal
Judge Cameron Is of the opinion that the
city should pave Oak street, between Sec
ond and Third. This is directly in front
of police headquarters, and the building
in which court is held. At present the
condition of the thoroughfare is very bad.
It is almost Impassable in places, and the
mud is quite deep.

The petition asking for the Incorpora

County Court yesterday morning by J. V.

matter has been pendlng?some time, and
some of the residents remonstrated. A

course to pursue. Those favoring Incor

T'HE Man Who Was sat on a dirty
crackerbox nursing a distorted,
bloated, wrinkled, unshaven countenance
between a pair of smudgy, fat hands. He
was stripped to the waist like the stoker
of an ocean liner for the Jailer had
taken his clothing to be fumigated, as a
sanitary precaution.
This was the man, they told me, who
laid the first streot-car tracks up. Wash
ington street; who was construction fore
man for the big railroads when they
made their appearance in Portland; who
used to be known as the best railroad
foreman in the West and as such earned
the nickname of "Jim Hill." And while
fate has not Inscribed his name on the
scroll of fame It appears on the vag
rancy records at the City Jails more
times than that of any othor five vaga
bonds in the state.
Jim. Hill was so -absorbed in reverie
that 1 hadn't the heart to disturb him.
After two hours I came back again to
find he hadn't moved a muscle. It seems
he can only be discerned from a carica
ture in cast at such times as rations are
served or when his days of servico are
up: On other occasions he sits with his
face in his hands. What . he is thinking
about no one has ever been able to find
out. it is probable, however, that he is
striving to keep Inert one of the most
overpowering thirsts that ever consumed
the soul of man.
I called him - by name several times,
but he did not hear and the jailer then
poked him with a stick, whereupon he
looked up with great deliberation.
"Phwat th dlvil do ye want?" he
growled and then his fa'ce dropped back
to roost In his hands.
"Wc want to interview you regarding
the railroad situation," suggested the
City Jailer.
"Jim looked up quickly and this time
there was an expectant look In his eyes."
"How th dlvil does ye ixplct a man
to talk about railroads or anything else
when his dam throat Is on fire an boorn
in' up," he exclaimed. "Gimme a drink
an' thin I can talk."
This afforded an opening. "How long
have you had this thirst," I asked.
Born "With a Thirst.
"Ivir since th' dlmbn rum was In
vented," he said with a grouchy smile.
"I was born wid a thirst an I got It yet."
It was easy from then on to get In out
line the life-story of the city's most
worthless charge and most drunken vag
rant. His story afforded something of an
Insight into the cause of his condition.
Born in the North of Ireland C3 years
ago with the name of James Mack, he
came to America at the. age of 18. He
located at Pittsburg where he was mar
ried and then drifted West as construc
tion foreman for the Southern Pacific.
From other sources than his own lips It
is learned he was regarded as a particu
larly valuable man. His work consisted
of starting a gang of men at laying rails,
ater which he w.ould go ahead to set a
new force at work. He never was kept
in one place longer than was necessary
to Instruct the workmen in their duties.
In the Fall of '59 Jim reached Port
land with his wife and made his home
at 541 Fourth street. He worked as
foreman for the O. R. & N. and other
companies for 15 years, and sustained
ms reputation as a valuable work
man. Nine years ago came the turn
ing point. He went into partnership
with John Barleycorn, with whom he
long had been dickering. The partner
ship is not yet dissolved, and prob-

Rev. James Edmunds Explains
His Spokane Speech.
DID NOT ASSAIL, G. A. R.
Himself Son of a Veteran, Baptist
3Ilssionary Declares That Ilcport
3Iisrcprc8cntctI Language,
Spirit and Purpose.
"It Is simply the setting up of a straw
man, and then knocking liltn down. I
am tha son of a veteran, and I yield to
no man In honoring the veterans of the
Civil War. When the members of the
Grand Army of the Republic were
murching along Sixth street, on their
way to the Exposition Grounds, I stood
In front of the Orogonian office and I
was the only man In that vast crowd who
stood with bared head."
Rev. James Edmunds, of Portland, who
was recently quoted as assailing the
veterans of the Civil War in an address
before the Baptist convention of Wash
ington and Idaho, In Spokane, made the
foregoing remark yesterday at his home.
Mr. Edmunds has just returned from his
trip to Spokane. He is the Sunday school
missionary of the American Baptist So
ciety of the department of the North
Pacific Coast. He spoke on "Mission to
Childhood." during his visit to Spokane
and In consequence of his speech, or
rathor the report of his address, for he
fays he was misrepresented and mis
quoted, he was subjected to severe critic
Ism in the Spokane papers. At Portland,
also, the members of the G. A. R. wore
very indignant and adopted caustic reso
lutions. Says He "Was Misquoted.
"The spirit, purpose and language of
my address on that occasion were mis
represented In the report that was pub
lished." said Rov. Mr. Edwards yester
day. "The roporter did not take a steno
graphic report of what I said that eve
ning, but took down what was published
in long-hand, and missed the essence of
the meaning of my refcronce to the Civil
War veterans, not Intentionally, perhaps.
In my audience were many prominent
residents and some members of tho G.
A. R. and they made no criticisms on
what I said. In the published Interviews
In Spokane, based on the report made of
my speech there were no quotations made
from people who attended the mooting
and heard my address, but the expres
sions were from people who never heard
the address at all.
"I did not state that the veterans of
the Civil War as a class were a whisky-tobacco-steeped
and polluted "class. That
was the farthest from my mind and In
tentions. The report that I did make
such a statement bears falsity on Its
face. It would be preposterous.
Highest Typo or Public Virtue.
"What I did say. when relerrlng to
them, was that we should be careful not
to set up as models for the children of
the country the veterans who are dissi
pated. No one denies that there are some
veterans who are dissipated veterans
who have contracted bad habits and
these arc the ones whom I said should
not be set up as examples of patriotism .
before the youth, and I did not Intimate j
that as a class the veterans were un- j
worthy. I called attention to the boys i
brigades that have been formed in tho j
churches and questioned the advisability
of inspiring them with the martial spirit .
by martial training, and also by the use ;
of war songs in the churches. I said j
that we should rather cultivate and up
hold before the rising generation the I
ably never will be until death grants
the divorce.
"I got th thirst that won't come
off." ho said. "I never did get rid of
It, 'an I've used up more good booze
than the fire department would need
to put out th town If it were afire.
Whin a mon's throat do git on fire. It's
like th divll's own fire, an' nlver do
go out."
From Democrat to Anarchist.
Not until the past three years has
Jim quit work entirely and become a
ward of the city. His wife left him
early In his career of drunkenness,
and he drank up all his belongings.
He has been known to sell the shirt,
supplied by the city, off his back, in
order to get a drink. 1 Where he used
to be a good Democrat he is now a
confirmed Anarchist. "Th Goover
mlnt Is- th . oppressor of th poor," he
said bitterly. "They keep a poor dlvil

splendid type of patriotism as exemplified
In such men as Governor Folk, LaFol
lette, Jerome and others who have taken
a stand for civic and public virtue. I
held up these menv up as the very high
est and best standard of true patriotism
at this time. And these things were
omitted entirely In the roport of my ad
dress. I emphasized the effect of the
means used."
"Because some of 'the veterans of the
Civil War are dissipated." continued Rev.
Edmunds, "no one would think of saying
that they, as a class, are dissipated and
whisky-soaked, for they are not. If I
had made so sweeping a charge as that
against the veterans I should not
wonder at the indignation, nor do I
wonder at the criticism aroused over the
report that was published of my speech.
It does not follow because a small por
tion of the veterans arc dissipated that
the whole body are to be classed as un
worthy of the confidence and respect of
the country whom they served so well
and for which they sacrificed so much.
"I insisted that Uie principles repre
sented by Folk, Jerome and others. Is
the better type to hold up" as models. Be
cause there arc a few newspapers -in the
country that arc unworthy and publish
untruths for sensational purposes, we
arc not to condemn the real Journals that
seek to promote the public good and are
thoroughly reliable. Neither arc we to
condemn nor hold up to scorn the G. A.
R. veterans because a few have contract
ed vicious habits, but we arc to be care
ful not to hold these few up as examples
of patriotism to the young boys and
girls."
Says Action "Was Husty.
Rev. Edmunds read over the resolutions
passed at the campfifc of Sumner Post,
G. A. R.. for the first time yesterday, and
smiled. "1 have no Intention of entering
into any controversy," he said, "as I am
too woll known In the Northwest for that
to be necessary. I speak very rapidly on
the platform. Even when shorthand men
have attempted to report me. they have
thrown down their pencils In despair. So
It can be seen that when a reporter under
takes to make a report of my utterances
in longhand there Is no wonder that ho
should fall to give the meaning, especial
ly as he may have been Ignorant of the
purport of meaning at which I aimed.
The only safe way Is to make a verbatim
report. A report of a medical lecture,
filled with technical terms, could not be
a correct report, unless taken In full. I
think that the action taken here was a
little hasty, based as It was on the re
port published of my speech. Had I said
what was reported the resolutions would
have been appropriate."
