JASON LEE'S BONES
Remains Will Be Buried in the
Missionary Cemetery.
REMOVED FROM CANADA
Fitting Services Will Be Jlcld at the
Willamette University to Com
memorate Work of Pioneer
Missionary in Oregon.
Arrangements are being made to bury
the remains of Jason Lcc. the pioneer
missionary to Oregon of the .Methodist
Episcopal Church, in the lce Missionary
Cemetery near Salem. The interment will
be preceded by fitting services, in which
representatives of tho church, pioneers
and state governments of Oregon. Wash
ington and Idaho will participate. The
services will be bHd in connection with
tho commencement exercises at Willamette-
University, probably upon June H.
the day before the regular graduation
programme.
. .As .Appropriate Tribute.
The services in connection with the In
terment, which will . be an appropriate
tributo to the life and work of Jason Ice,
Is being arranged by a committee con
sisting of President J. H. Coleman, of
"Willamette University: A. M. Smith, of
Portland, president of the board of trus
ices of Willamette; Rev. "Walton Skip
worth, of The Dalles; Mrs. Smith French
of The Dalles, and F. H. Grubbs, of
Portland, a son-in-law' of Jason Icc.
June 14 lias been set as the date for the
memorial, but it is possible that it will be
changed to a few days earlier, as the
Pioneer Association holds a meeting upon
that day and it is desired to keep the
meetings from conflicting.
Three Meetings Planned.
Three meetings will b held in connec
tion with the service. The morning meet
ing will be in charge of the Methodist
Kplscopal Church, and Bishop B. H.
Moore will preside. In thr afternoon the
pioneers will pay their tribute, with A.
Bush, of Salem, presiding. In the even
ing Judgo F. A. Moore will preside, and
the Governors of Oregon. Washington and
Idaho will be askod to deliver addresses.
Among the clcrygymen who will be re
quested to take part In the services are
Jlcv. John Fllnn, of Vancouver; Rev. P. s.
Knight, of Salem; Rev. John Atwood. or
Seattle: Rev. D. L. Rader. of Portland:
Rev. I. D. Driver, of Kugenc: Rev. A. J.
Joselyn, of Seattle and Rev. Nelson
Clark, of Spokane.
It Is especially appropriate that the
memorial ceremony should be a part of
the commencement exercises of "Willam
ette University, as Jason' Leo was the
founder of the Oregon Institute, 'which
began its career In IMS and afterward
grew Into "Willamette University. Rep
resentatives of the. university. Including
ome of the students, will probably have
a part in the programme.

Portland Leads All Cities in
Northwest.
WELL AHEAD OF SEATTLE
Percentage of Increase A1h Ex
ceeds That or the Metropolis of
Iugct Sound, Showing Rel
ative Growth of Both.
SUmp sales In the Portland PostoRlce
for tho .past two years show an excess
both In amount and rate of increase over
those of every other city In tho North
west. The growth of business done by the
local office Is phenomenal, and has few
if any parallels in the United States.
The rate at which she is surpassing other
cities In the Northwest In this respect Is
Indisputable proof that Portland U rapid
ly forging ahead as to population and
business.
At the Portland offlce. stamp sales for
the postal year ending March 31. 3!OS,
were JOS,o33. With the exception of Se
attle, the sales In each of the other cities
of this section of the country were less
than S3CO.000. S rat tie ranks next to Port
land, with sales amounting to 152.044,
which Is J36,S9 less business than was
done by tho local office. The per cent
of Increase for Portland Is 3S.6. For Se
attle it waa 16.7. This is the more nota
ble when It is taken into consideration
that the figures of the Portland offlce
for the year ending March 31, IKS, were
3393.082. or almost J 4000 more than the Se
attle figures during that time.
The Spokane offlce ranks third In the
list, with receipts of 3311.C34 in the past
year. Tacoma comes next with 3126.741.
and all of the other offices are below the
JlOO.Ott mark. The following table shows
the sale for the postal years ending
March 31. 16. and March 31. lias, to
gether with rates of Increase for all of
the first-class postoSIces In the Spokane
division:
A portion of the increased business of
the Portland office during the past year
was doubtless due to the Iwis and Clark
Exposition, but even without the Influx
of Fair visitors, this dty would probably
show a higher sale than any other point
In the Northwest. That the permanent
growth in population and business of
Portland Is the real reason for the heavy
receipts of the local office is shown by
the fact that since the Fair closed there
has been a sllll further increase In the
amount of stamp sales. The last four
months, with their percentage of Increase
over the corresponding, months of last
year, are: December. 1SJ; January. 2&2;
February. L2, and March, 2.1.
Postal receipts arc a true Indication of
the prosperity of any city. Bank clear
ance and other 'dty statistics are some
times padded, but the amount of stamp
sales given out by the various postofficcs
represent the actual business done.
TRIBUTE TO GQL HAWKINS
DR. ROIiAXD D. GRANTS ELO
QUENT EUIiOGY.
OFFICE 0FC0R0NER.
Four years ago Mr. FInlcy stated
through tho newspapers that If elected
Coroner ho would remove bodies to the
morgue only when It was absolutely
necessary, and no bill would be presented
to the county. Let us see how faithfully
he has kept his promlie. According to
the books and records of the County
Auditor there, has been collected from tho
county up to the first of April. li. for
hauling bodies to the morgue. 31367.50.
How Is this? "Which goes to show that
he ha not missed anything where It was
coming his way.
Another question Is the one of econ
omy. All Coroners previous to Mr. Fin
ley's time were on the fee system, conse
quently if a Coroner was called a long
distance, say. 10 to 49 miles out of the
city, tho Coroner received no pay unless
he held an Inquest. Now he gets his pay
regardless of the amount of work per
formed. If the Coroner Is an undertaker
and busy with that part of his business,
all that he has to do is to say no Inquest
Is necessary. He already has the body
at his place, so he is sure of the funeral.

Return to Portland to Find His
Friend Read,, and Speaks
to HIk Memory.
Dr. Roland D. Grant, who spent a
few hours in Portland Saturday, paid a
touching tribute to the late Colonel
I I. Hawkins. He- said:
"This visit to Portland has been
strangely lonesome an I miss the ever
cheerful, hopeful face of my beloved
friend, L. L. Hawkins. I loved him as
a brother and had good reason to do
so. Sixteen years ago I saw him for
the first time, and he was driving; a
tandem team with a great load of chil
dren for whose pleasure he had
bought that wagon. It was charac
teristic of his whole life I never saw
him when he was not planning or
scheming for the pleasure of others.
It was a park, a picnic or cutting a
trail througn some charming wood,
ministering to Masama herd on a
mountain, loosening a girth to case a
horse or planning a museum for the
children and philosopher.
I knew him as few had a chance to
do; he was often at my home and I
never returned to Portland that he did
not earl come to greet me. and his
greeting was always rad!anU
There used to gather on Monday
night in my cabinet a group of kin
dred spirits like Mr. Gorman. Mr. Pom
eroy and Mr. Drake. TVe lighted a
big lamp at S o'clock and the study of
nature. Illustrated from my cabinet,
continued until the smoklng-out lamp
closed the scientific research at mid
night. There was ne charge to attend
these seances, but each paid 32 a night
to be absent, and there never came one
32 into tho treasury for the many
months It continued. None could have
been more loved in that select group
than Mr. Hawkins.
In that room was "born in his heart
the great museum he afterward found
ed. I remember the day that museum
took: definite form In his loving- heart.
We had gone to Goblo and. putting in
a blast, had blown out the finest zeolite
group of crystals ever found. Bear
ing these treasures home, he said
there ought to be a. place for the pres
ervation of such things In Portland,
and tried to persuade me to place our
cabinet as a boats. One day we went
to study the conditions around the old
blockhouse at Cascade Locks, and find
ing one log remaining with its port
holer, we lugged it down to the river,
and It now rests in the museum.
On many of these trips he was al
ways a charming companion, and I
cannot believe that he Is gone. Port
land can never he Just the same.
"No man In this city has been worth
more than "he. If yea were to giro rae
31(9.940 I could not duplicate the aui-
seusa that he has. gathered. Its cJasf-.j
fl cation is very reaned and practical,
revealing a true genius and rare lover
of nature. Together have we exam
ined every Item of that collection, asd
It has surprised rae to note his orig
inal and high-class scholarship.
'T hope tho city will Immediately
presont itself with a life-size portrat'
of the unique citizen; also a. bronzo
bust to stand lovingly among the gems
he has gathered. He was unlquo In
deed. I knew his heart as well as any
one could, and yet I never knew what
his business was. but somehow felt the
ravens were feeding him like another
prophet of old. The sequoia giganteas
about the city will grow to be his na
ture monuments, and may his benedic
tion fall on us. who tarry at the base
of the mountain he has climbed. I say
this in loving remembrance of one of
the rarest of men, a true disciple of
nature.
JOHN GAY'S FUNERAL.
Impressive Ceremonial at the Grave
' by CJan 3Iacleay.
The walling notes of sorrow from bag
pipes; tartan-dad dansmen, and a fu
neral procession In Portland streets yes
terday afternoon, reminded on of a
stately ceremonial In a land over the At
lantic, and seemed to be a living reallty
of more than pne scene pictured in Sir
Walter Scott's romantic poetry. The
event was the fnnerat of John Gay, re
spected member of Clan Madeay. of this
city. No. 122. Order of Scottish Clans, and
the funeral arrangements were carried
out just as Mr. Gay had In life asked his
wife that they be done. "Place my bon
net and plaid on my coffin, and have the
pipers play a funeral dirga over my
grave." had been the dying man's ex
pressed wish.
Nearly 70 members of the Clan Mac
leay assembled yesterday afternoon In
their lodgerooms at Tenth, and Washing
ton streets, to attend Mr. Gay's funeral,
and. headed by Pipers James Macdonald
and James Moon, the dansmen In their
picturesque regalia marched to the un
dertaking parlors of J. P. Flnley Sc. Son.
where a portion of the funeral service
was conducted by Rev. H. D. Hare, t.ie
assistant pastor of the First Presbyterian
Church. The Clan Madeay Glee Club of
male voices sang with touching effect the
hymn. "Jesus, Lover of My Soul." and
the old Scotch setting to the 23d Psalm.
"The Lord's My Shepherd." The funeral
procession started for Third and Tamhill
streets, headed by the two pipers, dressed
In Highland costume. Including bonnet,
plaid. Idlts, etc. Then the pipes broke
Into the walling note of anguish known
to Scots all over the world as "The Land
o the LcaL" It is more than a dirge
it Is a sob, and Is peculiarly associated
with a newly-made grave.
The clansmen proceeded In a special
trolley-car from Third and Yamhill
streets and were waiting In line at the en
trance to Lone Fir Cemetery when the
funeral procession drew sear, and the pip
ers played the sorrowful, tearlike "Flow
ers o the Forest. At the grave the Im
pressive ritual of the clan was used, and
men the dead man's bonnet and plaid
were tenderly lifted from the coffin. As
the latter was committed to earth, again
the pipes lifted up a voice of lament and
then the echoes oaak to arise no more.
A chieftain was burled. Aa a last mark,
of respeet. the dajumea each placed a!
pebble at the aide of the grave to form
a iaaeral, calm.
The honorary pallbearers were: J. Er
nest Laidktw. C J. Cook. Oscar Brun.
Monfdsal Judge Grorgn J. Cameron. Da
vid Macrae and W. Lackey. The active
pallbearers, all members of Clan Mac
leay, were: Alexander G- Brown, J. R.
Stuart. Harry Dickson. D. A. Milne.
John Bowie and J. P. Robertson. It
should be added that both In Scotland
and Ireland bagpipers play la'ments, a
