CAPTAIN THOMAS
RUN DY
MOKE
Picturesque and Well-Krrown
Waterfront Character Dies
at Advanced Age.
MANY YEARS A SAILOR
Established First Large Bath-House
and Did Much to Make Swimming
a Popular Summer Sport on
the Willamette River.
Captain Thomas Bundy. an, old-time
resident of Portland and one of the most
picturesque characters on the local wa
terfront, died at his home, 561 Grand ave
nuu. at 7 o'clock last nigln of cancer,
complicated with diseases of old age. He
was S7 years of age and 'this city had
bnen his home for 15 years. He was the
proprietor of the Neptune Bath-House
at the foot ofast Sherman street, which
tie established soon after he came here.
Captain Bundy was born in Kngland, but
went to sea when a youth and spent
nearly half his life in sailing the Great
Lakes. His only blood relatives in this
country so far as known, are two nieces,
lfiiiRhters of an only brother, who reside
In Chicaso, and a nephew living in Okla
homa. He was cared for- durin his de
clining years by his adopted son, Joseph
Valentine, who survives him.
Captain Bundy was born in Brighton,
Kngland. May 12, 1S20, and in the year 1844
he sailed as an apprentice seaman out of
the port of London, landing at Quebec,
Canada. Afterward he made his ma
linc headquarters at Buffalo, N. Y and
sailed the Great Lakes for 40 years.
Lived In San Francisco.
About 16 years ago Captain Bundy
was smitten with the Western fever
and landed at San Francisco, where he
assumed a contract to build sail and
rowboats, but the venture did not turn
out a money success, and he left for
"Vancouver, Wash., where he did odd
Jobs in carpenter work. Next, he
moved to Orejron City, where he built
one float for a bathhouse, and at this
period he first became acquainted
with his adopted son, Joseph Valentine,
who has been his faithful companion
ever since. The Oregon City specula
tion was too slow for the energetic
spirit of the old sea captain, and he
moved to this city about 15 years ago,
locating at tiie old stamping ground at
the foot of Ellsworth street. Here he
built a small float, where he hoped to
teach Portland people to swim, but he
was not known and didn't advertise,
and patronage was slim. To make
financial ends meet, Joe Valortlne
or Bundy, as many people call him
worked In a neighboring lumber mill
and helped to support Captain Bundy.
who was beginning to get infirm with
the weight of his years.
"I'll make a bathhouse pay here yet,"
confidently announced Captain Bundy
In those early days to one or two inti
mate friends. But the matter hung
fire. Just at this period a well-known
member of the Multnomah Athletic
Club happened to think that the bath
house was in such a quiet spot that
It was conveniently suited for young
women swimmers who shunned the
publicity of the club swimfning pool.
The result was that society people be
en n to be interested, among them be
ing Mrs. Helen Ladd Corbett, Mrs.
Holt C. Wilson, the daughters of Mrs.
J. B. Montgomery and others, who soon
became proficient swimmers.
Resort Became Popular.
"Have a swim at Bundy's" soon be
came a Summer salutation among Port
land's society folks, and old Captain
Bundy and his adopted son, "Joe,"
prospered accordingly in this world's
goods, and they gradually added to
their bathhouse plant. Others than
Roclety people began to patronize
Bundy's, and at times the place was
so crowded that the captain was forced
' to reserve certain hours for particular
patrons. Houseboats began to dot the
river banks hero and there, and the
foot of Ellsworth street became a live
lier place.
His whtte silvery hair, pleasant
smile, sociable ways and kindly wel
come for 'all who came to see him
made Captain Bundy a social favorite.
He did not Interest himself in boat
rowing or yachts, and frequently said
that he was "too old for such things."
Neither is It recorded that he ever In
a sensational manner rescued any one
from a watery grave. "I Just keep a
bathhouse; that is my business," he
often said, with a simple digplty that
was all ills own. It is recalled that
Captain Bundy rarely went into the
swimming pool to give lessons, and
that those were generally given by an
assistant.
Five years ago a reporter of The
Oregonlan tried to make Captain Bundy
talk about his past life, but the veteran
suddenly turned shy. With great diffi
culty he was induced to give his birth
place, age, etc., and then stopped.
"Ever married, captain?" was asked.
Story of Marital Devotion.
"My wife died at AiaVerley, N. T.,
about 40 years ago,", was all that he
could be luduced to say. But the cap
tain didn't tell of his loving devotion
to that wife, wnen they lived at
Buffalo, N. Y., Mrs. Bundy's baby .died
suddenly and she began to be afflict
ed with mind trouble. She became a
confirmed invalid and for 20 years her
husband was her devoted nurse. She
was unable to recognize him until about
the last, when shortly before her death
she opened her eyes, smiled In affec
tion, and said: "Tom, you've been i
good husband to me. I've been sick a
long tlmo, haven t IT
Captain Bundy's Intimate friends
say that he once admitted having been
married three times and that all his
wives are dead. It Is understood that
one of his marriages was unhappy.
Three years ago he suddenly started
to tell the story about "that woman,"
but stopped. He also admitted serving
in the British navy and helping to cap
ture African slave dealers, but could
not be Inauced to tell -his experiences.
His declining years have been made
pleasant by the devotion and loving
v care of his adopted son, "Joe," and In
speaking or this the old captain re
cently said: "Joe has been on the boat
with uie all these years, and he could
not have been fonder of me If he had
been my own son. He never once
spoke a cross word to me, and he's
kinder than a woman." joe possesses
considerable Inventive ability and Is
clever at mechanics. The captain has
had many boy proteges whom he ma
terially helped along in the battle of
life.
Leaves Valuable Proberty.
He managed to earn and save money
which, with good Judgment, he In
invested In Portland real estate when
values were a good deal lower than
they are now. Captain Bundy's only
surviving brother, who then lived in
Chicago, visited the old boathous. at
the foot of Ellsworth street two years
ago, but he has died since then.

the Spanish-American War broke out,
Mr. Coyne, with several other well
known amateur athletes, enlisted in Com
pany H, Second Oregon Volunteers, of
which Colonel Charles E. McDonell, now
In command of the Third Infantry, Ore
gon National Guard, was captain.
In tribute to his dead comrade, .with
whom he saw service while the Second
Oregon was in the islands, Colonel Mc
Donell last night said:
"Frank B. Coyne was a faithful soldier.
His services as a member of Company
H, Second Oregon Volunteers, were hon
est and helpful in every respect, and I
doubt if anything better could be said In
his honor. During the campaign in the
Philippines I appointed him one of the
relief committee to visit the sick an6TJ
wounaea memoers oi company n wnu
were confined in the different hospitals.
His noble efforts in ministering to his
unfortunate comrades cannot be too high
ly commended, and hie cheerful disposi
tion undoubtedly brought 'sunshine to
many an 'Unfortunate, beridden through
sickness or wounds.
"His services in this way undoubtedly
saved the lives of many who, stricken
with malignant fever, and In some in
stances wounded as well, would have
given up the battle had not Comrade
Coyne labored so faithfully In adminis
tering to their wants and reviving their
drooping spirits. By his death the world
has lost a faithful soldier and a good
citizen. May he rest in peace."

to every member of this orranlzs.ti.il :
and. aside from the sorrow caused by the
loss of such a friend and comrade, the

Past Post Commander Coyne to have been
a charter member of his post and an inde
fatigable worker In the order from the time
of its inception to the hour of his death.
As a presiding officer of his post he won
laurels for It, and gatned the admiration

his presence was most needed, and success
oft times was due only to his energy and

anguish of their bereavement, and leave
only the cherished memory of the loved

JUDGE M'BRIDE HAS CHANCE
TO CUT MANY KNOTS.
Clackamas County Circuit Court Has
160 Divorce Cases Pending Geo.
C. Brownell Is Very 111.
OREGON CITY. Jan. 19. (Special.)
With 12 criminal cases on the docket and
more than 160 divorce suits pending, the
special term of the Clackamas County
Circuit Court will be convoked here to
morrow' by Judge McBride. The extra
ordinary amount of accumulated business
haa been the cause of a special session,
in order to relieve the congestion for
the regular term in April. Seven men
have been in Jail more than two months,
charged with the murder of Bingwan
Singh, a Hindu, at Jarl & Pang Brothers'
lumber mill near Boring on the night of
October 31 last. Four Canby saloonmen
will be tried on a charge of selling liquor
to minors, resulting in the death of
Charles Klnzel at Canby, who was given
whisky obtained by some boys, and died
from the strangulation following a night
of debauchery. Leroy Carden, charged
with assault, has been an inmate of
the County Jail two months, "and will
probably be tried at this term.
It is the Intention of District Attorney
Hedges to get .the criminal cases out ot
the way for the April term, but the ill
ness of George C. Brownell, who is de-
fending
all of the men charged with
crimes, may have some bearing on the
trials. Mr. Brownell is suffering from
severe attack of the grippe, and has
been confined to his bed for a week. His
condition is not improved today and ha
may not be able to appear In court to
conduct his cases. In this event, they
may have to be postponed, as he has had
no opportunity to map out his defense.
The prosecution, however, is ready for
trial, and many witnesses for the state
have been summoned to appear.
There is nothing to affect the hearing
of a majority of the divorce cases, how
ever, and probably two score of them
have been referred to C. E. Runyon, the
court stenographer, and in cases where
no defense is entered decrees will be
handed down. Judge Cleland's court in
Portland holds the record for 24 decrees
of divorce granted in one day, but it
seems likely that this record will be
eclipsed here tomorrow. Never before
have there been so many cases on the
equity docket pending in Clackamas
County, but this situation is due to the
bank holidays that prevented Judge Mc
Bride from holding court at the regular
November term last year.

EACH OWES A LIFE
Dr. Oyott Tells Man's Debt to
- the World.
SPEAKS AT THE Y. M. C. A.
Congregational Pastor Declares Ob
ject Should Not Be Reward or
Punishment, but to Do
Right for Right's Sake.
Rev. Luther R. Dyott, pastor of the
First CDngrenat tonal Church, was th
speaker at the Y. M. C. A. men's meeting
yesterday afternoon. He took for his
subject, "TVhen One Is Ready' and said
In part:
Th old Baying- thai the world owe every
mai a living Is true, but every man aim
owes the world a life. The man who is el-
fl&h In the name of religion. Is not a religious
man at all. Many men are parading under
the garb of religion mho are no more than
miserable hypocrites. On the other hand, many
people are essentially Christians, who. If asked
the question, would say. "No, I am not a
Christian."
It Is very essential that we be ready for
whatever life has in store for us. The ma
jority of men who go Into business make a
failure of It at some time In life. And yet.
in- spite of the loss of money, these men may
he worth a great deal. They start in again,
and In many casrs succeed in finding build
ing material In the niat.-s r vnk.
I would, rather my daughter would be mar
ried by a man who Is worth a million but who
hasn't a cent, than a man who has a million
but who Isn't worth a cent. Many men pass
over the line of demarkation between owning
their money and letting their money own
them.
Bvery man should make a life, not merely a
living. Tou may call It Socialism, Judaism,
Christianity, or whatever you like, but any
thing that helps a man to rise higher, to give
his life In Its fullnees, Is religion. You haven't
found It all. though, until you find the thing
which appeals to the whole man. Christ
does that. And that la Just why I am in
sympathy with the work of the Y. M. C. A.
I admire the fine physique of the men who
have been in training in the Y. M. C. A. But
what a pity to see such men, with broad
shoulders, and strong muscles, but -with a
gimlet brain.
It im not for us to worry about the world to
come. We want God now, to help us to live
better. Every man should live the Christ
life because It Is right, not because of the
reward o4 the punishment he will receive. It
is' for each man to say, I will do my level
best In order that I may reach the level of
my best."
Preceding the address. John Baeckly,
a native of Switzerland, rendered a num
ber of selections on the zither, which
were much appreciated by the men
present. The Centenary Male Quartet
also gave several numbers. The meeting
opened with a stereopticon lecture by M.
A. Keee, in which a number of the curio
sities of the Oregon woods were shown.
SHOTJIl AID THE TOEMPLOYED
Socialist Discusses Economic Prob
lems at the White Temple.
"The Church and the' Unemployed" was
the subject discussed by Walter Thomas
Mills, Socialist lecturer and editor of the
Seattle Saturday Evening Tribune, at
the White Temple last night. All the
seats in the church were filled, and there
were many standing. ,At the close of the
address the audience broke Into ap
plause, ended only when the 'assistant
pastor, Krank E. A. Smith, called on
the congregation to arise and be dis
missed. Mr. Mills urged all men present to be
sober, to refrain from the use of liquor,
tobacco and from high living. ""Orink
goes to your head," he said. "Yours may
be a very poor head for the work you
have to do, but. my " friends. It's tile
only head you've got, so it will pay you
to take care of It.
"The employment of the unemployed is
of more consequence than the building of
the Panama Canal, or the Government
ownership of railroads, or the prosecution
of grafters, or the punishment of cor
poration heads. , All honor to the Mayor
of your beautiful city, who has issued
a call to the Mayors of all the chief
cities of the Coast, to meet and formulate
a plan whereby another way may be pro-
viaea lor aeanng witn tne helpless toilet
out of work than that of taking him to
the city limits and ordering him to move
on.
"When the great crash came a few
weeks ago. the first corporation to dis
charge men was the United States Steel
Corporation. Just in proportion as these
great corporations win the mastery of
Dusiness, just in tnat proportion are they
unable to employ labor continuously, for
the market cannot consume all the pro
duct. When tbe great monopolies dis
charge men, these unemployed workers
must either beg or starve. When such a
state of things exists It is for the public
to nna work lor tne unemployed.
"In Portland there is a wood combine.
There are 45,000 families in this city On
an average they burn 12 cords of wood
a year. They pay about 13.60 a cord. Two
dollars of this amount is for the benefit of
the private corporation, which gives noth
ing in return. The thing to do is to open up
- yuoiiu wutmyaro. .rurcnase tne stump
age direct from the individual land-owner
and let the city thus provide employment
for the idle men, and at the same time
Men, Isn't
This Best?
When ynu must have the services of a
doctor, isn't It best to bo to one who will
tell you all about your trouble and not
charge you for It? Then when you know
positively what ails you. Isn't Is best to
know just what It will coat you to set
well?
Certainly It !s. If you were going to pay
nut money for something else you wouldn't
do it unless you. knew how much you had
to pay, and what you were going to get
for it.
This Is the way I run my business on a -strictly
business basis. You're every bit
as wise as I am when you commence treat
ment with me. I examine you and tell you
all about your trouble, and it doesn't cost
you a cent. Then I tell you how I'll cure
you, how long it will take and Just what
it will cost.
If this meets the eye of a man who, while
yet In his prime, through some weakness Is
going backward instead of forward. I want
him to come and'-let me show him bow
I am t akin it broken-down wrecks of hu
manity every day of my life and fixing them
up as good as any man of their years. I
don't care what has caused the trouble, nor
what has failed to cure them. I can cure
them and make them better and stronger
than they ever hoped to be.
Just because some other specialist has
failed to cure you is no good reason why
I should fall. My treatment for MSN'S
WEAKNESSES and other diseases Is as dif
ferent from other specialists' manner of
treatment as day is from night.
