East Side Building Operations.
Work la to be resumed at once on the
four-story brick for J. M. Healey on the
corner of East Morrison street and Grand
avenue. The basement and foundation
were completed some time ago, but it
tvas found impossible to get the steel for
the frame. Some of the steel plates to
raft on the concrete foundation were de
livered Saturday, and It is announced
that construction will be prosecuted with
vigor. The fill for the basement of the
big brick warehouse for the Mitchell,
Lewis & Staver Company on East Second
street, between Morrison and Belmont
streets, will bo completed In about ten
days. This fill will bo deeper than made
on any of the other blocks north of
East Morrison street, and will cost much
more. The concrete piles will be built
down through this solid fill of sand and
gravel. Several hundred of these piles
will be driven down to solid foundation,
and then united together at the top by
means of arches. Plans for the three
story brick for the East Side Bank, on
the southeast corner of EaBt Washington
street and Orand avenue, are being pre
pared. The two-story frame that stood
on this corner has been moved to East
Washington and East Sixth streets. Ex
cavating has been started for the bantc
building. The new owners of the old
Logus building on East Washington
street and Union avenue will soon have
that structure in new dress. It has been
straightened up and is now being over
hauled throughout. Joseph Paquet's
brick at the east end of the Morrison
bridge has reached the second story.
Death of Daniel Hawes. Daniel
Hawes died yesterday morning at the
home of his son. H. B. B. Hawes, 560 Clin
ton street, after a lingering Illness of
several years. Mr. Hawes was born In
England S3 year? ago, and emigrated to
Canada, where he remained until 21 years
ago, when he came to Portland. He was
a member of the First Christian Church.
He Is survived by his wife, to whom he
was married 62 years ago, and the fol
lowing children: Professor J. D. Hawes
and Mrs. W. A. Richardson, of San Fran
cisco; Mrs. Hannah Comstock, W. J.
Hawes, Mrs. L,. E. Kern, Mrs. William
Bllnco, Mrs. C. H. Whoeler, G. N. Hawes
and H. F.. B. Hawes. The funeral will
be arranged for as soon as the children
who are out of the city can be heard
from.
Pleased With Sumttt.r. D. L,. Pursel,
Charles Moyer and W. G. Perkins, of
the Cracker-Highland Gold Mining Com
pany, have returned from a visit to their
property in the Bourne mining 'district
near Sumpter well pleased with the out
look. Mr. Pursel said last night: "We
ere planning extensive development work
for next year. The tunnels already dis
close a well defined ledge of high-grade
milling ore and as there Is enough In
eight to keep a plant running for years,
a mill will he erected in the near future.
While on the claims we cruised the tim
ber on the claims and found a sufficient
amount to warrant the erection of a mill,
which will saw1 lumber for mining build
ings and timber for tunnels."
Want Pound Limits Extended. The
Mount Tabor Improvement Association Is
making an effort to have the pound
limits extended eastward from West ave
nue to the city limits. In the section of
the old school district No. 6, now a part
of Portland, it was voted to enforce the
stock ordinance, but It has never been
enforced. Cows have always had free
range, and have stood chewing their cud
at the door of the Mount Tabor Justice
Court without molestation, but now all
that territory is Inside the city. The res
idents want the limits extended at least
to Include all of the old district, and
will appeal to the council. Complaints
are made that cows open gates and rav
age lawns.
New Telephonb Stations. The two
central stations for the Home Telephone
Company, one at East Morrison and East
Eleventh streets, and the other at Union
avenue In Upper Albina. are completed.
They are being equipped with the auto
matic hello apparatus. "Keep out" Is
displayed at the entrances of both struc
tures. The Pacific States Telephone Com
pany has broken ground for its three
new East Ride centrals Woodlawn,
Mount Tabor and Midway. " These three
buildings will represent an expenditure
of from $40.0(10 to $."0,000. The General
Electric Company Is putting up a big
brick electric station' in Upper Albina
that will cost jr.O.OOO.
Takes French Leave. County Jailer
Mitchell last night lost one of his truB
ties. Charles Waltie. Waltie had been
given a great deal of liberty and ast
evening decided to take advantage of the
situation and get out into the world
again. The police were furnished a de
scription of the escaped prisoner. WTaltie
was arrested last February for larceny
from a dwelling and was "doing" nine
months.
Will Complete Schoolhoitsb. The
sehoolhouse at Estacada will be com
Dieted throughout. A. Llndsey was first
srtven the contract to put up the build
ing, four rooms, and complete two lower
rooms, leaving the upper rooms unfin
ished. The new contract Includes the
finishing of all four rooms. This makes
an additional cost of t;5, and the entire
contract amounts to J4936.

PORTLAND PEOPLE ADDICTED
TO STRENUOUS REST-TAKING
River, Parks and Picnic Points Reached by Rail or Trolley
All Claim Share of Pleasure Seekers
"I
BDLIETVE nine-tenths of the peo
ple of this town work harder on
the day of rest than they do all
week," remarked an observing man at a
transfer station yesterday afternoon.
"How? Why, trying to have a good
time. If I had ' worked half as hard at
my store yesterday as I have today, I'd
consider changing my business for the
sake of my health!"
He mopped his fevered brow, gathered
up a heavy lunch basket, rounded up the
five children and hui wife and boarded a
Portland Heights car. "Yep goin" all the
way to Council Crest," he replied to the
Inquiry of his friend as the car started
up the hill, tout it was difficult to tell
whether his expression was happy or sad.
The friend wended tils way to the City
Park to hear the band concert, and be
tween the numbers ruminated on the
many ways Portlanders spend Sunday.
To begin with, there were several hun
dred of them right there In the park
listening to the good music, strolling
through the beautiful walks which wind
in and out among the hills, studying the
animals of the menagerie, the plant life
of the gardens, and enjoying the rare
August day. Baskets and boxes carried
by many indicated an all-day vteit, and
parents who lounged on the benches,
reading or chatting with friends, kept
watchful eyes on the children who were
happy at the swings or feeding the bears
and monkeys;
"This Is a pretty good place to spend
Sunday, especially If one likes outdoor
life," concluded the friend to himself.
About 6000 of Portland's population
spent their Sunday enjoying a game of
the National sport, baseball, and enjoyed
It with true American enthusiasm. It
was a happy, informal but critical crowd,
and the fact that the day was perfect,
the players and diamond In good form
and the weather cool made it all that
could be desired by the lovers of this
wholesome sport. There are many so
called "psalmslngers" who believe that
death and destruction awaits the sinner
who would witness a game of baseball on
Sunday, but there were many church
members observed In the big crowd, and
they seemed Just as capable of admiring
a deftly curved ball, a clever, taotful play
and the quick, keen Judgment of the
players as well as any one else.
From 6 to 9 o'clock, street-cars, trains
and river steamers were busy unloading
great crowds of passengers. Where had
they been? Why, most everywhere, for It
was Sunday and the people were all busy
having a good time. Some had been to
suburban resorts, to Oregon City, Caza
dero, Estacada, Vancouver, Bonneville,
Cascade Locks and to the many plcnio
grounds up both the Willamette and Co
lumbia Rivers. Good time? Why, yes
but it was a bit strenuous getting up to
catch an early boat or train, and one had
to stay up late Saturday night getting
the lunch ready, but It was Una In spite
of the work. Then here came the return
excursion trains from the seacoast with
their hordes of passengers. They . -were
sleepy and tired and the children were
fretful after the five hours' journey home
(which Is always so much longer than
the trip going down), but It was with
the conviction of a duty performed that
of having a good time on Sunday that
Ithe crowd scurried into waiting cars and
wended their ways homeward.
The vaudeville theaters and The Oaks
are all famous attractions for the pleasure-loving
public on Sunday, and espe

Elder Snyder Defines Position
of the Seventh-Day
Adventists.
FOR RELIGIOUS LIBERTY
Continues Answer to Dr. Clarence
True Wilson Apostle Paul His
'Guide Sabbatarians on
Horns of Dilemma.
Last evening, at the Seventh-Day Ad
ventist Church, Elder E. A. Snyder con
tinued his reply to Rev. Clarence True
Wilson, taking for his text Acts 24:14:
"But this I confei unto thee, that after
the way which they call heresy, so wor
ship I the God of my fathers, believing
all things which are written. In the law
and the prophets."
"We, like Paul, believe and try to obey
the law and the prophets, for which we
are perfectly willing to be called heretics
by our opponents," declared Elder Sny
der. "We also believe in religious lib
erty, and are opposed to religious legisla
tion of all kinds. Including Sunday laws,
which our critic thinks are so necessary
to the welfare of our country. The Con
stitution of the United States declares
that 'Congress shall make no law re
specting an establishment of religion, or
prohibiting the free exercise thereof." Ah
far back as 1829 a proposed Sunday law
was turned town by Congress because
our law-makers considered Sunday legis
lation unconstitutional.
Only Defending Constitution.
"Proposed Sunday laws have been de
feated In the 20th century for the same
reason. In opposing Sunday legislation
we are simply defending the Constitu
tion from being overridden by those
whose zeal for Sunday Is greater than
their regard for the Golden Rule.
"In Romans 14:5 Paul says: 'One man
esteemeth one day above another; anoth
er esteemeth every day alike. Let every
man be fully persuaded In his own mind.'
If this scripture were carried out, we
would hear no more about Sunday laws
to compel men to observe a day which
they do not regard as sacred.
"Our laws already give every man the
right, to rest and worship on Sunday or
any other day it he chooses to do so.
Seventh-Day Adventists have no trouble
In keeping the seventh-day Sabbath.
They have all the protection from civil
law that they need. They do not ask for
a law to compel others to observe the
day they regard as the Sabbath. If
they-tlul, they would thus advertise to
the world that they had more bigotry
than liberty. The poet has well said:
" 'That they are slaves most base
Whose liberty is for themselves,
And not for all the race.'
On Horns of a Dilemma.
"Our opponents must admit one of two
things: Either that Sunday Is a relig
ious day, and therefore not a proper
subject for legislation under the Consti
tution, or else that It is not a religious
day at all; only a political institution.
We do not care which horn of this dilem
ma they choose on which to Impale them
selves. If they choose to go ahead and
compel us by law to rest on Sunday, stm-
no opportunity during the week to In
dulge their families in any entertainment
patronize these places on Sunday. Many
go to The Oaks in the afternoon for all
day, and then to the vaudeville after din
ner. Others defer their visit to The Oaks
until after aark, preferring the brilliant
illumination to the sunlight, but on both
occasions there Is the fine music from
D'Urbano's band and many amusements
to attract the young people.
But perhaps it Is the contingent which
depends upon the river for Sunday
amusement which gets the most real
pleasure eut of the day, whether it be
those who row, paddle or swim. The
sailboats which dot the broad surface of
the Willamette with their white wings
attract the attention of all travelers on
the water, and the sunburned, happy
faces of the boys and girls who sail these
miniature yachts form a true index of
the real sport there is In It At the
rowing clubs the members begin to call
for rowboats and canoes early In the
day, and they dart back and forth up and
down the river like veritable water flies.
The motor-boat also has a great follow
ing this season, and large parties are
constantly on the river. The houseboat
colony has the busiest day of the week
on Sunday, for their friends of the ca
noes, boats and motors call with great
frequency and find this mode of Summer
life so pleasant that they stay as long
as politeness will allow. i
"Come on up,'" insisted one of the most
popular houseboat hostesses on the river
"There are eight callers liere now who
are going to stay all night, but we can
put you up if you don'tvmind sleeping on
the couch."
At the Rock Island Club there is al
ways a large gathering of members who
enjoy the various advantages of coun
try club life, and many of them take
occasion to use the bath-houses and line
Buits furnished by the club and have a
dip In the river. At Bundy's and The
Oaks floats are crowded by dripping, sun
burned bathers and swimmers who floun
der around in the water like so many
water rats, and have the time of their
lives on Sunday. The Waverly golf links
are always well patronized on Sundays,
too, especially in the morning, and during
the afternoon and evening troops of mem
bers lounge about the comfortable club
house and enjoy lunches or dinners there.
The automobillsts haunt the good roads
and generally wind up at Claremont or
Edel Brau for dinner, -and the horseback
devotees take long cantes into the coun
try, discovering many ideal spots which
;annot be reached by conveyances. Those
who love long walks find Sunday an
Ideal day to Indulge this taste, and the
beautiful trails through Macieay Park,
up to Inspiration Knoll and over to
Council Crest are dotted with many lov
ers of Nature who choose this way of
worshiping Instead of going to church.
And the churchgoers must not be over
looked, for there are many citizens who
attend all divine services on the Sabbath
and spend the remainder of their day in
perfect rest and quiet meditation. But
these, as a rule, are the people who have
not the strenuous, work-a-day life of
those who seek amusement and outdoor
recreation on the day of rest.
There is in every city an unfortunate
rowdy element which gives expression to
its pleasures In boisterous dissipation,
but Portland has not quite the share of
this that other towns have, and her Sun
days, in consequence, are marked with
a quiet wholesomeness for which we
should all be grateful.

DEATH OF SOL TICHNER
Pioneer Merchant of Baker City
Passes Away To Be Buried Here.
The body of Sol Tlchner. of Baker City,
who died at Colorado Springs last Mon
day, was brought to Portland last even
ing for interment here. - Mr. Tlchner
was a prominent merchant of Baker
City and had many friends and acquain
tances In Portland, where he lived be
fore going to Eastern Oregon many years
ago. '
The funeral will be held from Elks'
Temple at 2 o'clock today. Interment
will be made at the Jewish cemetery.
The remains were accompanied to
Portland by Mose Tlchner, of Portland,
a brother of the deceased, and by Mr.
and Mrs. H. Bamberger, Carlton Bam
berger, Joseph -Heilner and Carl Dils
heimer, of Baker City, and Mrs. Sam
Strauss, of San" Francisco. Mrs. Bam
berger is the sister of the daceased, and
Mr. Heilner and Mr. Dileheimer repre
sent the Elks' lodge of Baker- City, of
which Mr. Tlchner was one of the old
est, most popular and Influential mem
bers. Mr. Tlchner went to Baker City when
a -boy and began clerking In the Bam
berger department store. Later he be
came a partner, and finally the owner of
the entire establishment now known as
"the White House."
Laot June, while he was spending his
vacation at Salt Lake City, Mr. Tichner
was taken ill with quick consumption,
and his physicians ordered him to Ari
zona. He was too 111 to make the en
tire trip, and was compelled to stop off
at Colorado Springs, where he remained
until his death.
Mr. Tichner was also a member of the
Oddfellows' Lodge, and members of that
order will attend the funeral In a body.
WANTS FIVE-CENT CARFARE
Mllwaukle Complains of Paying
High Transportation Rate.
Mllwaukle wants a 6-cent fare to and
from Portland. At present the residents
may' buy books of tickets, making the
rate to and from Portland 7H cents. It
is alleged that the growth of the pio
neer town has been held back because
other sections are given 6-cent fares,
while a trip to Milwaukie to a transient,
or to anyone without a book, costs 10
cents. They say. that 6-cent fares are
charged to St. Johns, nine miles from
the Portland Courthouse. Also Lents,
six miles away, has 5-cent fare, and
nearly all points around Portland have the
6-cent fare but Milwaukie, and Milwaukie
Is but one and a half miles beyond the
city limits of Portland. The Milwaukie
Bee says:
"We were led to believe that when the
Milwaukie Club was organized that it
would bring pressure to bear upon the
company to get the hoped-for reduction,
but it seems that it has not. Then the
Rock Island Club was proposed, and we
are told that the company actually prom
ised a 5-cent fare whenever that club
had 600 members. As we understand it
the club has from 600 to 709 member."
It is suggested that the travel would
be Increased from four to five times if
Milwaukie were given a straight 6-cent
fare and that peoje would make two trips
to Portland where they now make one.
They would attend the theaters at night,
and go to town much oftener. There is
some growth at Milwaukie, but it is slow
compared to other suburbs of Portland
and all because, so it is said, of the
heavy cost of getting to and from Port
land. FUNERAL OF MRS. HUGH
Many Friends of Chinese Missionary
Pay Parting Tributes.
The funeral of Mrs. Grace Hugh, the
Chinese missionary who died at her home
in this city last Friday, was held from
the Christian Church yesterday afternoon
at 2:30 o'clock, the services being con
ducted jointly by Rev. E. S. Muckley,
Rev. J. F. Ghormley and Rev. F. Elmo
Robinson. A quartet consisting of Mrs.
T. J. Craig, Mrs. Reeves, Ward Swope
and Rev. E. M. Patterson sang several
selections. Beautiful floral offerings
crowned the snow-white casket and were
strewn around it on the rostrum. These
came from the Chinese friends of the de
parted, from the Christian chuches of the
city and the Christian Women's Board of
Missions. A milk-white dove with out
stretched wings, surmounted one of the
largest wreaths.
Mr. Ghormley gave a detailed account
of the dead woman's life and work in the
missions of this city, and then, turning
to address the sorrowing husband, his
voice broke with emotion, and he spoke
as one who shared the loss.
Mr. Muckley closed with an earnest
prayer. A large concourse of friends fol
lowed the casket to Lone Fir Cemetery.
Mrs. Hugh was born in Vacavllle, Cal.,
of Chinese parents, but was brought up
in a Christian home. She came to Port
land four years ago, where she married
Louie Hugh, and at once became active
in missionary work for the people of her
race- She was but 25 years of age at the
time of her death.and a host of friends,
both Chinese and Americans, feel deeply
the loss they have sustained.

Mass Meeting of Farmers and Property-Owners
to Be Held To
night at Montavilla.
PropertyOwners and farmers will at
tend a meeting of the Montavilla Im
provement League this evening, when the
making of Villa avenue a boulevard,
reaching from East Twenty-eighth street
to Fairview, a distance of more than 10
miles, will be discussed There Is con
siderable opposition to the widening of
the avenue to 80 feet from some people,
and it Is desired to get these people out,
so they may bo Informed of the advan
tages that may accrue from such avenue.
There is no wide highway eastward from
Portland, and Villa avenue would be the
first of the sort to be built should the
property-owners see fit to widen it. Ex
cept through, the Ladd tract, the street is
now 60 feet wide to the city limits at the
east side of Montavilla, but the Ladd
tract, which has resisted the march of
Improvement, is now Inside the city, and
oan no longer- prevent the opening of this
street, and the intention is to drive it
through this big field, following the course
of the street-car track, which now occu
pies a 30-foot strip. The league is gath
ering all Its force and Invites all resi
dents and property-owners from Wlberg
lane clear through to the end of the pro
posed boulevard to Join In this effort to
make a splendid boulevard and a direct
route to the Burnslde bridge.
A. L. Stone, of Fairview, says that he
has been over the route of the proposed
boulevard from Montavilla to Fairview,
and he Is contident that the people own
ing the land through which It will pass
will not oppose the establishment. He
says that an 80-foot highway would add
very largely to the value of all the prop
erty that would be near It. It would open,
he says, a great area of country now
hardly accessible to settlement and devel
opment. "Commissioner Llghtner," said Mr.
Stone, "is doubtful about the street being
made 80 feet wide, but favors the 60-foot
roadway, but that would be a great mis
take. Make it 80 feet wide, by all means.
The land would not be missed."
Idaho Sheepraiser an
Amateur Magician
PRANK JOHNSON, a sheepraiser and
commission merchant from Boise,
Idaho, amused a crowd of friends at the
Hotel Portland last night with several
startling tricks. He is something of a
magician, but the tricks are only a side
line with him.
His most interesting feat is to tie a
handkerchief around one of his thumbs,
leaving the end exposed. Taking an ordi
nary pocket-knife he goes through the
maneuvers of actually cutting the flesh.
Blood flows freely, much to the astonish
ment of the witnesses, but after remov
ing the handkerchief there are no signs
of an incision.
Later Mr. Johnson explained his trick.
By tying the cord tightly about the
thumb the blood 1b forced to the end of
the member. By pressing the back of the
knlfeblade against the thin skin the blood
Is forced out and gives the appearance of
actually flowing from a wound.
