clubs have indorsed the erection of a
bridge at this point. Plans have been
. prepared for structures of wood and of
combination wood and steel. W B. Hall,
of the Business Men's Club, calls atten
tion to the fact that this structure passes
over the lumber yard of the Doernbecker
factory, filled with inflammable material,
and that in case of fire the bridge would
re swept away, whereas a steel struc

inson Held at Y. 31. C. A.
Memorial services in honor of the late
Reno Hutchinson, who was murdered
at Spokane last Monday evening, were
held at the V. M. C. A. auditorium yes
terday afternoon, and the hall was
packed to its capacity. Many promi
nent men of the city were in attend
ance, and William Ladd, president of
tho Portland branch of the associa
tion, presided, and Drs. E. L. House
and C. True Wilson. Professor Steele,
E. C. Bronaugh. T J. Davis and E. B.
McNaughton occupied seats on the
platform.
After the song- services. Mr. Ladd
opened the meeting by a brief address
and a favorite hymn of Mr. Hutchin
son's was sung- by the Congregational
Church Quartet. I L. Rhoads, state
secretary of the association of Oregon.
Washington and' Idaho, then spoke on
Mr. Hutchinson's record as a student
at Berkeley. Mr. Rhoads and Mr.
Hutchinson were at college together,
and no higher tribute could be paid
the martyred man than that, rendered
by his former classmate. He spoke of
his record as a student, as an athlete
and as a Christian -worker at the great
university and told how Mr. Hutchin
son -worked his way through college,
and of the different honorary societies
of which he w-as a member. He also
spoke of the sacrifice he made in giving-
up his class in order that he might
devote more of his time to the reli
gious development of the students.
Dr. House, of the First Congrega
tional Church, spoke on Mr. Hutchin
son as a church member, and told how
he was -willing to devote his time and
energies to the upbuilding of the
church. The deceased was a member
of Dr. House's congregation, and for
the past three years had been closely
identified with the church.
E. C. Bronaugh told in a few- words of
Mr. Hutchinson's work as a director of
the association.
Other addresses were made by E.- B.
McNaughton. Professor Steele and oth
ers, and all eulogized Mr. Hutchinson's
record as a student, as a Christian
and as a business man. The servlco
closed with a prayer by Dr. Clarence
True Wilson.
DISCUSS CUBAN PROBLEM
Speakers at People's Forum Engage
In Lively Argument.
The regular meeting of The People's
Forum was held last night in the Selling
Hlrsch building, and the question, "Is
the United States Justified in Interven
ing in Cuba?'' discussed Walter Mc
Camant played the martyr's part 'by
opening the meeting with a brief address.
Going back to the discovery of Cuba by
the Spanish he reviewed the history of
the turbulent island up to the present
time. In the opinion of Mr. McCamant
conditions in Cuba made it necessary
for the United States to intervene.
"Shortly before the opening of the
Spanish War.'- said the speaker, "the
United States, to prevent a European
coalition against her. promised the
powers of Europe that it was not her
intention to annex Cuba, but to protect
the island till a suitable government
could be established for the Cuban peo
ple. I regret that this promise was ever
made, for the time is not far off when
the United States will be forced to admit
Cuba into the Union, either as a state
or a territory. It was a dream of the
Southern states many years ago that
Cuba would some day become a part of
the United States of America."
While the speaker took no deciderj
stand on the question, his address had
the usual effect on the Forum audience,
bringing a flood of oratory from other
members. Each one who had a desire to
express himself on the Cuban question
was given five minutes time in which
to do so. Populists, socialists and one
avowed anarchist expressed their
opinions. C. H. Chatman. H. D. Wag
non. H. A. Mosier and others spoke. No
two of the speakers agreed on a single
point, each attacking the others' opinions.
McCamant was the storm center, each
speaker seeming to take clelight in turn
ing his oratorical batteries on the lead
ing speaker, but from the way he re
ceived their attacks, it was evident that
he had been there before
As the hour was late. Mr. McCamant
did not make a closing speech, as i3
customary.
Government ownership of railroads will
be discussed next Sunday night. Colonel
C. E. S. Wood will be the principal
speaker, and the man who has on num
erous occasions pronounced himself an
anarchist is expected to speaJt.

that he could lift a man weighing over 200
pounds by the strength of his neck, with
out using his hands, and. technically
speaking, has been going around with a
broken neck ever since, which is a most
uncomfortable and Inconvenient situation
for a man to be in It has always been
supposed that, when a man's neck was
broken, that was the end of him. but this
'case of Mr. Aschoff is an exception to the
rule, and it is one of the most remarkable
cases known to surgery. Mr. Aschoff
keeps the Aschoff Hotel, at Marmot, on
the road to Mount Hood.
Mr. Aschoff. although not a large man.
was a man of great physical power and
endurance. It is related of him that he
could easily hold a sack of flour in either
hand, with arm extended. His long ex
perience in the mountains as forest ranger
developed most extraordinary powers of
endurance. The accident occurred last
July. Mr. Aschoff w-anted to demonstrate
that he could lift a man with his neck
without touching his hands to him. So
he placed ljis head between the legs of a
man weighing over 200 pounds and did
raise him with apparent ease, but short
ly afterwards he found that ' his head
dropped forward on his breast, and that
he could neither raise it nor move it. He
could raise his head with his hands, but
it would drop back on his breast again.

THEY have taken a new tack down at
the Baker, and this week almost
every man wears "gosh-ding-its." while
the women go in for "fascinators " The
stock company goes back to the soil and
gives us simon pure "rube'" comedy in
"Up-Tork State."
I haven't heard an audience laugh so
heartily this season as the one at the
Baker did last night. It was simply a
scream from the first curtain, excepting
only two or three times when the soft
pedal was called into requisition. Mostly
the piece Is a laugher, but now and then
there's a weep passage. Given a back
woods community, handsome, chlvalrio
young inventor with an upright farm
which raises only whte beans; he loves
a beautiful and orphan heroine with no
balance at the bank and a blind kid
brother; designing village mortgage brok
er with an "out West" record: villain dis
covers valuable marble deposits on in
ventor's farm: inventor need6 the money
to cure heroine's brother's eyes sells for
a song to villain; heroine thinks poor in
ventor loves another, marries scoundrel,
but gets next to his villainy an hour
afterward: chucks scoundrel, "inventor's
new-fangled automobile makes the money,
heroine divorces villain and marries true
love.
Can you beat it? That's the main thread
of the story running through "Up York
State." In addition there's a "Hi Holler"
kind of choreboy. a shrewish old aunt, a
village belle, a hilarious town constable
and a dozen other types of yokels.
As a rural comedy it isn't especially
new. There are memories of all the farm
er plays in existence, but it delights the
multitude greatly and is well acted by the
Baker players.
Richard Thornton as Darius Green, the
inventor, proves very satisfactory, as does
Miss Lawrence as Evelyn Blair, who finds
her happiness after many tribulations.
Mini Gleason is deliciously funny as the
"grouchy" old aunt, while John Sainpolis
and. Donald Bowles, as the mortgage
shark and country doctor, respectively,
give their usual finished performances.
William Dills gets every laugh that is
coming to him in a rather unsavory com
edy role.
But the big hit of the piece is Howard
Russell as the "hired hand." Howard
leads all the rest this week in the matter
of applause-getting. He must have -been
waiting for this very part and holding
himself in reserve for a good time this
week. His song in the second act, in
cluding the parody verses, received more
encores than have been recorded at the
Baker this season.
Frances Slosson and Ethel Grey Terry
gave a good account of themselves and in
troduced a very clever "sister act" 'spe
cialty. William Gleason was decidedly
good as the constable, and William Har
ris made as much of the parson as the
part was worth.
Among the "bits." Ethel Jones and Lu
cille Webster made themselves quite im
portant to the success of the performance.
"Up York State" will afford you de
lightful entertainment this week, and
you'll miss something good if you don't go.
"The Holy City" at the Empire.
A thousand people filed out the doors
of the Empire Theater yesterday after
noon with the beautiful strains of that
favorite hymn. "The Holy City." ring
ing in their ears, and expressions of
satisfaction and peace on their faces.
They had witnessed one of the most
gorgeous scenic productions of the sea
son and had listened to a biblical story
which is always new, and which grows
more tragic and more interesting with
the ages that of the Nazarene. Gordon
& Bennett's fine production of Jerusalem
or "The Holy City" proved to be fully
up to the high standard set for it by
the management, and the crowded theater
attested to the popularity of a dignified,
impressive religious drama.
There is nothing lacking scenlcally to
make "The Holy City" a masterpiece,
and the tableaux of the Crucifixion and
of the Ascension were deeply impressive
and beautiful, and appealed to the better
side of men and women. The treachery
and hatred which beset the path of Christ
and his Apostles was brought out in
startling realism, and the story of the
death of John the Baptist and the be
trayal and scourging of Jesus was told
in a manner to teach the lesson of humi
litv and faith.
The Judas Iscariot of Walter M. Sher
win stands out as the best bit of acting
in the production, and the Marias of
Edgar Jones seemed to be most popular
with the house. Miss Morey makes a
picturesque Salome. the bloodthirsty
daughter of King Herod, and Herodius,
stant death would have resulted. He was
brought to a Portland hospital, where it
was found that the back part of his neck
had been broken and the tendon torn by
the terrible strain of lifting the man. His
neck and head were put into a sort of
plaster cast, very much as is done with
a broken arm or leg. to enable him to
hold his head in place. He cannot move
his head, and whatever position he hap
pens to be in at night he remains in un
less moved by somebody.
Whether Mr. Aschoff will recover is not
known. He has had a remarkable career.
When superintendent of the forest Tangers
of the Cascades, and before he was re
moved, he was in love with the moun
tains and lived in them. Less than two
years ago he met with a terrible accident
miles from his home in the forests of the
Cascades, where he had gone alone with
two horses, one of which he rode, the
other carrying his outfit. After camping
at night he saddled and mounted his
horse, when the animal rose on his hind
legs and fell backward, the horn of the
saddle, penetrating Mr. Aschoft's groin,
making a terrible wound, besides injuring
him on the head. In spite of his terrible
condition, he took the saddle off the horse
and put it on the pack animal, traveled
as far as his strength would permit, and
then spent the night alone, resuming his
trip in the morning and reaching home
two days after the accident, fainting many
times on the trip. He was brought to St.
Vincent's Hospital, where he remained for
several months. While In the hospital his
wife, driving in to see him. was nearly
killed by her horse running away. These
accidents ail happened in the last two
years.
the Queen mother was well done by
Louise Roberts. LlUiam Alexander as
Mary of Magdalene, was convincing and
if she is as beautiful in real life as she
is in the artistic robes of the penitent
outcast, she would be appreciated in plays
of modern costuming.
The closing act, in which Salome kills
her loved Marias by mistake and in which
.he converts her to belief in his Master
as he dies, is intensely tragic, ana when,
after the young princess plunges the
knife into her own heart and falls across
the body of the dead Roman, the curtain
rises on the beautiful tableau of the As
cension, there seems nothing more to be
desired in completing the most tragic
6tory of all history.

SUNSHINE IS SEASONABLE
October Fair Weather Xot Excep
tional, Says Forecaster Beals.
Should your visiting friend chance to
remark: "This is unusual weather, isn't
It?" just tell the truth and say It's noth
ing unusual. The friend may not believe
it, but all that is necessary is to show
him the report of the Weather Bureau.
Cloudless, sunshiny days in. October in
Portland may even surprise some of the
old-timers, yet if they axe surprised it is
because they have forgotten, for. accord
ing to a report made especially for The
Oregonian by Weather Forecaster Beals,
there has been lots of October sunshine in
Oregon in the past.
The weather reports for Oregon and
Portland, especially, from 1S91 to the pres
ent, show that the bright, happy sunshine
of yesterday was nothing unusual, al
though the people who crowded the
street-cars and thoroughly enjoyed them
selves out of doors might have thought
so. The report of the Weather Bureau
says:
"A comparison of the records from 1S91
up to the present show that there is noth
ing unusual in the present spell of cloud
less skies. A year ago the sky was
cloudless on October IS, 19 and 20. while
the 21st and 22d. though not cloudless,
were clear. October 21, 24 and 25. 19iM,
were also cloudless. For a succession of
cloudless days during this season "of the
years the year 1S92 furnishes the most
striking example. During that year cloud
less skies lasted from October 22d to the
2Sth, though marred to some extent by
the morning fogs on the 22d, 2d, 24th, 25th
and 28th.
October 13 and 20, 1S35. were also cloud
less days. October 22 and 23, 1903, were
cloudless, and also October 21, 24 and. 25,
1904. '
From the foregoing it can readily be
seen that a short period of cloudless days
during this season is not. by any means,
exceptional.

OBEYS COURT ORDER
Mrs. Carey M. Snyder Decides
Not to Leave the State.
REVEALS NEW EVIDENCE
Widow of Murdered Glencoe Man
Said to Have Told More About
the Mysterious Case During
"Sweatbox" Examination.
Fearing to place herself In contempt of
the court. Mrs. Madge Snyder, widow of
Carey M. Snyder, of Glencoe. Washington
County, did not leave Portland yesterday,
as she had announced she would. She is
still at the Hotel Portland, and the au
thorities feel confident that she will re
main in the state as long as they desire
her to. It is understood that Mrs. Snyder
yesterday divulged some valuable infor
mation and that interesting developments
in the case can be expected within the
next few days.
Mrs. Snyder and E. B. Tongue, deputy
District Attorney, who has been assisting
District Attorney Allen In the case, held
two long conferences yesterday afternoon
and It Is understood that she talked mora
freely than any time since the inquisi
tion began.
Mrs. Snyder was "sweated" by Mr.
Tongue in police detective style, but it
was only after the severest questioning
that he succeeded in breaking down her
guard and securing the additional Infor
mation. All along she has contended that
she has told absolutely all she knew abou,t
the case, but the authorities believed that
she was withholding something which
would give- them a clew to the Forest
Grove bank robbery and the subsequent
murder of Snyder.
Saturday papers were served upon Mrs.
Snyder summoning her to appear before
Circuit Judge McBride at Hillsboro. Sat
urday night she stated that she would
leave at once for the East, as she was
tired of waiting for the authorities to take
decisive steps in unraveling the mystery.
She declared that Mr. Allen was attempt
ing to make her swear to a statement
which was not true, and that she was sick
and disgusted with the whole proceed
ings. Sho said that notwithstanding the
summons she was determined to leave.
The Hotel Portland was watched yes
terday morning when the 'busses depart
