Enthusiasm at Meeting of
Republican Committee.
FAVOR CANDIDACY OF CAKE
Major J. P. Kennedy Is Elected
Chairman Over SanoTeron Ileed,
ii n d J. F. Kerlchem Is ,
Cho-ri. Secretary.
Harmony and unanimous resolve to
rlcct the entire Rnpubliran ticket fn June
by a "Republican majority" pervaded the
mretfiiff of the Republican emmty cen
tral committee In Alisky Hall last night.
Ninety-five of the 115 newly-selected
members of the committee attended the
meeting and efferted organization by
elTtlnn Major J. P. Kennedy for chair
man and J. F. Kprtchem for secretary.
Th organleation of the committee was
captured by the friends of U. M. Cake,
W. M. Cake, brother of the Senatorial
candidate, having placed Chairman Ken
nedy's name before the committee. Sec
retary Kertchein is aleo friendly to the
akes.
Th platv of Ferdiand H. Reed and his
followers to control th". county organiza
tion by electing Sanderson Reed as chair
man fild not materialize. It Is said that
Ferdinand PI Reed had the committee
lined up frr bin man for chairman by a
margin of four votes when the Cake
people proposed overtures by which they
agreed to concede to Reed the election
of Frank F. Freeman as secretary it
the Reed delegates would stand for Ken
nedy for chairman. Hut Freeman was
not desired by the Ft' ed people, it de
veloped, and the muddle resulted In the
ela tion of Kertchem, of the Cake forces,
as secretary. The election of officers ap
parently left no sore spots, for the elec
tion of both Kennedy and Kertchem was
made unanimous.
Kennedy Has I,arfre Vote.
For chairman, Kennedy received a vote
of 75 against 20 for Sanderson Reed, who
was placed In nomination by Ferdinand
E. Reed. Freeman declined the nomina
tion of secretary and Kertchem was
elected over Frank C. Mlddlcton, who
was nominated by Charles Ielner, "by a
vote of 76 to IS. Ferdinand Reed after
wards nominated "VV. M. Cake as a mem
ber jif the Republican state central com
mittee and the nomination was made
unanimous, Mr. Cflke announcing that he
reserved the privilege of resigning the
off Ica In favor of Charles K. Iockwood.
whom he had promised to support for the
position. W. E. Williamson was the. unan
imous choice of the committee for Con
gressional committeeman for the Sec
ond Congressional District.
The Introduction of a resolution by
Mr. Williamson blacklisting Republicans
who In the future fall to support their
party's nominees created considerable dis
cussion. The resolution was finally laid
on the table on motion of Sanderson Roed,
who contended that Us consideration was
not conducive to the promotion of har
mony, which was desired by the commit
tee as the representatives of the Repub
lican party. The resolution proposed that
all Republicans be denounced as un
worthy the support of their party who
should support other than the regular
nominees of their party or become an
Independent candidate or encourage others
to do so.
rrjres Harmony in Work.
In convening the meeting, C. M. Tdle
man, the retiring chairman, briefly called
attention to the Importance of the work
before the members of the committee In
the June and November elections. It was
th duty, he said, of the committee to
"e that every candidate on the Republican
tcket was elected. "If the nu mbers of
this committee," he said, "will stand
by their chairman and put their shoulders
to the wheel there will be no danger of
Chamberlain or any other candidate on
the Democratic ticket receiving a ma
jority of the votes in June."
In accenting the office of chairman of
the committee. Major Kennedy predicted
n complete and sweeping victory in June
if the members of the committee work in
harmony and in the interest of the suc
cess of the tlrket.
Sanderson Reed Insisted that the
various measures to be voted on by the
people in June were of even srreater Im
portance than the election of offl- 1
c ers and suggested that the Central
Committee devise pome plan for bringing
thni before the people for educational
purposes before the date of the election.
He assailed vigorously the proposed con
st ,tutini'rTl amendments for proportional
represptu;tMn and the recall of unsatis
factory public officials, both of which, he
declared, were dangerous legislative
measures.
AV1 11 Appoint Committee.
A resolution offered by V. K. William
son was adopted directing Chairman Ken
nedy to appoint an executive committee
consisting of one member from each of
the ten wards of the city and three from
the country precincts. This committee
probably will be announced today. An
other resolution was adopted after dis
cussion instruct ins the executive com
mit tee to be appointed to apportion the
county's 47 delegates to the State Con
vention, which meets May 14, among the
wards and the country precincts on a
basis of the registered Republican vote
for the primary election. This committee
Is to report at an adjourned meeting of
the Central Committee next Wednesday
ntht and at the same time suggest the
names uf prominent Republicans for elec
tion as delegates to the State Convention.
itnte Senator S. C. Beach, who was
made a member of the committee from
preHntjl 8 to succeed F. C. Malcolm,
resigned, advocated the selection as dele
gates to the Ftate Convention of only the
most prominent and influential represen
tatives of the party, regardless of their
geographical location. W. M. Cake con
curred in this view but urced that e.Vh
precinct should first be given the privilege
of recommending men for delegates.
After tendering a vote of thanks to the
retiring chairman. Mr. Idleman. the com
mittee adjourned until next Wednesday
right when delegates to the State Con
vention w til be chosen.

ample provision should be made. Mr.
Himes said too. congress had held meet
ings in Seattle and Los Angeles, Cal.,
with great success.
Mrs. Luckey. who attended the con
gress held in Los Angeles. Cal:. spoke
of the fine entertainment afforded the
delegates there and also spoke of the
importance of the gathering. It was the
sentiment of the association that prep
arations should be undertaken and com
mittees will soon be appointed for that
purpose.
Among the addresses of the day, that
of E. B. McNaughten. a member of the
First Church, on "The Work Among
Men." attracted much attention. He
maintained that the church should make
special provisions for young men in the
way of clubs, and suggested that dormi
tories be built where young men could
be surrounded by good influences. Mr.
McNaughten caused a smile by the re
mark that the average young man could
not stand more than one sermon on Sun
day. He said further that young men
seek friends In and through the church
and that they ought to find them there.
He commended the action of the First
Church. Sunnyslde. and Highland, in or
ganizing clubs for men as a move In
the right direction. Mr. McNaughten is
president of the club at the First Church

Hero of Merrimac Will Ijecture at
the Ilelllg Theater May 1.
Captain Richmond Pearson Hohsrm.
Congressman from Alabama, will deliver
a lecture In the Helllg Theater Friday
evening. May 1. on "National Defense."
This lecture, coming as it does on the
anniversary of Dewey's victory at Manila
Bay, and the fact that the great fleet of
Admiral Evans is now on the Coast, has
peculiar interest at this time, apart from
Captain Hobson's personal reputation as
a naval authority and participant in
events of the Spanish War. Captain Hob
son will have something to say, doubtless,
on the necessity of having Pacific Coast
defenses strengthened and maintained,
and his views on these subjects will be
given the attention his experience and
capabilities entitle him to receive.

RETURN WOMAN FOR TRIAL
Mrs. Pugmejrer Will Also Be Witness
Against Madison.
Mrs. Anna. L. Pupniftj-er, the worth
loss chck artist who was arrested the
other day in Vancouver, Wash., after
having victimized a. number of merchants
there and in Portland, waa brought to
this city late last nipht in charge of
Captain of Detectives Baty and lodged in
the City Jail. She will be tried on a
charge of obtaining: money under false
pretenses, the complainant in the case
being W. H. Markell, at whose store she
passed a bad check for $15 10 days ago.
The Vancouver authorities released the
woman and turned her ov.r to the Port
land police without trial, because of the
better opportunity to use her as a wit
ness against J. F. Madison, now in the
County Jail and regarded as the real
perpetrator of the scheme.
The story told by this woman of how
Madison induced her to leave her home
In Idaho and used her as a dupe in the
wholesale passing of the worthless checks
which have been accredited to them in
half a dozen cities, has been inx-estigated
by the police and is believed to be true.
The police, it is said, will endeavor to
secure some leniency for the woman from
the court in which she is tried. For Mad
ison their efforts will be directed toward
securing a substantial term behind the
bars.
Will Decide Suit for Hearse.
The suit of the Columbia Casket Com
pany asainst Elvin Ames was taken tin
der advisement yesterday by Judge Bro
naugh. Jof the Circuit Court. It is the
assertion of the company that Ames is
in possession of a 900 hearse, purchased
from the company, and on which a
judgment of 1 is still due. The hearse
was sold on ttie Installment plan and
for some months has been used by a
Sellwood undertaking firm.
Re Got What He Needed.
"Nine years ago it looked as if my
time had come, "says Mr. C. Farthing,
of Mill Creek, Ind. Ter. "I was so run
down that life hung on a very slender
thread. It was then my druggist
recommended Electric Bitters. I b";jght

If it does, why, put your money in a bank and let it stay
there. If it does not, and you wish to get all of the earning
power of your money, read the following announcement, and
question yourself as to the advisability of keeping your money
in bank.
, We are offering our stockholders and the general public
stock of a par value of $1.00 per share for TWENTY CENTS.
This stock is amply secured by an immense tract of the finest
hardwoods in the world mahogany, cocobola, lignum vitae,
espava, mangrove, balsam copaiba and fifty other varieties
of hardwoods, all of the greatest value for use in the manu
facture of the finest furniture, pianos, billiard tables, inside
finishing, and a hundred and one other necessary uses.
This tract contains over FOUR BILLION feet of valuable
timber, and every share of stock sold is secured by one thou
sand feet, of an average value of at least $100.00. Can you find
better security than this!
Mahogany, of which there-is a great amount on this tract,
sells in the open market for from $250.00-to $400.00 per thou
sand feet. Lignum vitae and cocobola, both extremely heavy
woods (running five to ten pounds to the foot), sell in San
Francisco for from twenty to thirty cents per pound. Just
think of this! At the smaller weight and price, this means
ONE THOUSAND dollars per one thousand feet, or $1 per foot.
Our cruisers' reports show that this tract is exceptionally
well adapted for logging purposes, and that all the timber can
be logged to the streams at an average cost of only $6.00 per
thousand feet.
The following is an extract from a letter bearing upon this
particular tract, and written by W. D. Leadbetter, for j'ears
connected with the United States Hydrographic Bureau, and
a well-known and esteemed resident of Portland.
"I have explored some of these rivers for a distance of 20
to 30 miles in steam tugs, and find sufficient water in them for

DOMESTIC SCIENCE COURSE
PROVES POPULAR IX PORTLAND
HfGH SCHOOLS.
Many Apply for Instruction and
Give Tlieir Reasons for Desiring
to Learn to Cook.
The. Introduction of domestic science
Into the Portland High Schools meets
wltH the heartiest approval of both stu
dents and parents, judging from the
number of applications for enrollment In
the cooking classes which were organ
ized yesterday. Unfortunately the al
ready arranged programmes of many of
the girls make It impossible for them
to receive Instruction in cookery at this
time: hut the newly equipped kitchen
laboratories will be filled to their ut
most capacity by those who have time
for this extra study.
Considerably over 311 girls handed In
slips requesting permission to take the
course; while the boy-students not only
expressed a good deal of the kind
of Interest In the movement that
would be naturally expected In their sex.
but In a large number of cases made
serious application for class membership,
on the grounds that "a fellow never
knows when he may be off in the moun
tains, surveying or something, and have
to get his own meals or go without."
It was originally Intended to confine
the instruction In cookery to first-year
girls only: but s it is so late In the
year, a short practical course will be
arranged to Include others If possible.
No credits will be Riven for the subject
this year, but regular four-year courses
In domestic science are planned for-next
Fall.
Miss Ullan Tingle, who has charge of
the work In both- the East and West Side
Hich Schools, reports great interest and
enthusiasm amonghe aspirants for cul
inary honors. Many girls wrote an Im
ploring, underlined "please." or "urgent
ease, at the bottom ot tneir application
papers. In filling out these, besides the
name, year, vacant periods and such de
tails, each Rlrl was asked to state whether
she had ever done any cooking at home.
Often the answer was "a little." or "not
much": but In a very large number of
eiises the reply was "No," or "Have had
no opportunity." or "This is my only op
portunity to learn."
In one of the schools an additional
question, was asked. "Why do you wish
to enter this course? -Mtss Tingle states
that during a number of years of teach
ing experience she ha made a practice
of asking this question of new pupils, and
she has received some very Interesting re
plies. Among those given yesterday the
most usual formula was "T wish to be
come a good cook," or "My mother wishes
me to know more about cooking." but oc
casionally further details were Riven, as:
"I want to learn to cook because I want
to know the proper foods to eat. I also
may wish to marry some day."
"Because It is the most Important part
of housekeeping, involving the health of
all."
"Because 1 know very little about It and
I will never learn cooking unless I learn
now."
"Because I expect to have to cook and I
want to do It right."
"Because. I like It."
"Because I want to help my mother
all I can, and afterwards cook in my
own home."
All sensible girlR evidently. One writes
very confidentially: "The reason I want
to take It Is because 1 think It Is one of
woman's greatest accomplishments to
cook, and also if I am so lucky as to get
a good husband, you know you have to
know how to cook If you want any peace.
Don't you think so?"
Another concludes simply: "Becaie mv
mother says I have to." And another
says: "My father Is desirous that I know
how to feed him." Probablly there are
other fathers with similar sentiments.
Judge O'Day Goes ro Fossil.
Circuit Judge O'Day. of Portland. Is
to go to Fossil. Wheeler County, today
to try a tlO.000 libel suit. It was brought
by Jay Bowerman against James S.
Steward, editor of the Fossil Journal.
Circuit Judge Littlefleld, of Fossil, felt
Interest Satisfy ion
that under the circumstances he could
not fairly try the case. Statements made
in the Fossil newspaper concerning
Bowerman, who Is a candidate for the
State Senate, from Wheeler County, on
the Republican ticket, are the cause of
the suit. During Judge O'Day's absence
from the local court Judge B. V. IJttle
fleld, of Sherman County, will preside
In Department No. 2.
REHEARSING FOR CONCERT
Fortland Symphony Orchestra Is
Working on Second Programme.
Several of the enthusiasts on music,
who have supported the Portland Sym
phony Orchestra most liberally, attended
the rehearsal Tuesday morning, at Ellers
hall, and were delighted with the splendid
work of Mr. Dlerke and hla men. There
Is one" thing particularly noticeable and
that is the perfect harmony In the or
chestra. ' The musicians are sincerely interested
in making the Portland Symphony a per
manent organization and with that end
in view are willing to give their time and
atudy to the work. The interest and sup
port of the public at the first concert were
Indeed gratifying to director, manager and
members of the orchestra, all of whom
had worked very hard to meet the ex
pectations of those willing to support
them, and are working diligently to make
the second concert an improvement on
tho first one. It is work and rood hard
work that spells success for such an or
ganization. . .
Ferdinand Konrad, cellist, who has left
Portland for Chicago, to remain per
manently, it la understood, will be missed
from the orchestra and all regret the lops
of i-o excellent a man. However, Mr.
Kaps. whose splendid work at the firt
concert was so . noticeable, will ably fill
his place. There are also two new cpllista
in the city - who will undoubtedly be
added to tha symphony forces. -There
is perhaps no one musician in
Portland who has done more for music

reduced from 145 to 90 Ihs., gradually
growing weaker until I could leave my

became unship to speak aloud.

by an article on Grape-Nuts and decid

not take cream, but I used Grape-Nuts

"Soon I was able to take Grape-Nuts

The rivers mentioned in this letter are five in number, and
cut this tract almost at regular intervals, running from the
mountains to the sea. This means a tremendous saving in
expense, as the entire tract can be logged to these streams by
means of donkeys, and from these streams by rafts and lighters
to the mill. Our cruisers' reports show this land to be gently
undulating, not precipitous, and with but little undergrowth
(not more than occurs with Columbia River timber).
Our market is already established. Our common grades of
lumber will all be used within fifty miles of our operations, and
the demand for the better grades far exceeds the supply.
As to the earning power of your money, invested with us,
and if we cut only 25,000 feet per day, your money would earn
for jrou over 50 per cent per annum. But we want to put in a
mill with a capacity of at least twice this amount, in which
event your money will be earning for you at least 100 per
cent per annum.

us show you the proofs of the above statements. The price of
this stock for the present is TWENTY CENTS, par value $1.00.
