BY SPIRITUALISTS
Cottel Ordinance Indorsed by
First Society, After Long
Discussion.
CLASH OF RIVAL FACTIONS
State Society Proposes Changes in
Measure Governing Mediums, but
the First Society Sup
ports Its Leader.
Taking the stand that the Cottel antl
medlum ordinance, recently Introduced in
the City Council was for the purpose of
eliminating so-called fakers from the
ranks of spiritualism In Portland, the
First Spiritual Society of this city last
night, at a meeting called by the Oregon
Btate Spiritualist Association, gained its
point and those opposed to the issue,
realizing defeat, were compelled to ad
journ before accomplishing any of the
objects they had In view.
The state organization, which opposed
the ordinance on the grounds that it took
away from mediums certain personal lib
erties, was completely routed by the local
society. As a result of the conditions
arising at last night's meeting, which was
held at 501 Yamhill street, the only way
open for the state body to gain its meas
ures, which were presented in the form
of a petition suggesting amendments to
the original ordinance, will be to allow
the passage of the ordinance, unprotested,
and, then fight for the adoption of the
amendment as, drafted by themselves.
This Is the only course open if the council
acts on tlie. request of the spiritualists
themselves.
Harrison J). Barrett was on. hand and
read the ordinance as it has been decided
to return it to the Council for passage,
The ordinance, as it now stands, is slight
ly different in several respects from the
original document, but still contains the
feature declared objectionable by the
members of the state association. The
amendment which the state body wished
adopted would restore certain privileges
which the ordinance, when passed as It
stands at present time, will eliminate.
John Slater, a note-reading medium,
and several others spoke. Mr. Slater
maintained the stand he originally took
In opposition to the ordinance. Mr. Bar
rett read the ordinance and cited inci
dents where similar documents had been
passed In other cities, and not to the
detriment of the "honest medium,' as
contended by the state society. Mrs.
Rmily Driscoll, President of the First
Spiritual Society, led In the advocanv of
the ordinance as It now stands. Mrs.
Sophia Seip, as President of the State As
sociation, lead the opposing taction. Sev
eral others of note in local spiritualistic
circles also debated on the issues. The
vote of the First Spiritual Society in
favor of the ordinance carried unani
mously, although it was informally put
before the meeting.
The petition suggesting changes In the
ordinance over which the discussion
waged follows
We. the Board of State Rpl ritualists' As- j
ociation or Oregon, chartered under the
National Spiritualists Association at Wash
ington. D. C. chartered- for the purpose of
religious rights and protection, to encour
age Spiritual medlumshlp. Spiritual unfold
ment In Ita various phases and gifts, known
se clairvoyance, clear-seeing, clalrraudlance,
clear hearing, trance, inspiration, prophecy,
paychotnetry. seership, do recognize medi
ums and medtumshlp as the necessary and
legitimate channel through which all proof
of our religion and religious rlghta of Spir
itualism has made Its advent to the world
today.
On these various phases of medlumshlp.
we have founded our religion- and "religious
rights," to demonstrate our religion and
ceremonies of progress and right.
Hence, we, as Spiritualists, do petition
this committee on ordinance, known as the
"Barrett-Cotter ordinance, to strike from
Section 1 the words "clairvoyance," py
ehometry." "spirits," "medlumshlp." "seer
ship." "prophecy," as those terms are used
together with "trance," "inspiration,"
"clairaudlance. "clear hearing." "clair
voyance," "clear seeing." used as
phases belonging to grades of de
velopment In our religion. Hence we
would petition, the honorable -committee of
the Council to exempt "Spiritual Medium
ship" from taxation; provided their work is
confined to work known as Spiritual Medt
umshlp. We would further claim: Spirit
ual Medlumshlp does not depend upon or
recognise as necessary, placards "Stars."
"Hands," "Heads," "Braces," "Love po
tions:" selling stocks of njr kind, shape or
manner, or other lotions, as belonging to
or having any part or parcel of the re
ligion or religious right of Spiritualism,
or Spiritual MedJomshlp. Those who sell
stocks, lotions, charms, should pay the
requisite license or fine. Our motto Is:
"Cultivate Spiritual unfoldment and ad
vancement to the higher and holler Spirit
ual attainments."
Section 3 We heartily indorse this sec
tion and urge its adoption, and recommend
that the fine be increased to $1000 Instead
of $100.
We would like to urge the following Sug
gestion: That this honorable body of Coun
ritmen draw the line of discrimination and
distinction between licenses issued, if li
cences there be Issued;
That each branch of work permitted by
the Council bear stamp upon same of the
profession. Let us soy here: No person or
persons resorting to loud advertising, such
as "Hands." "Heads," "Stars." "Faces" and
advertisements, such as seen and known as
"Kit mo." Neganze." "Nibbles." "Marsh
field." "DeMare," "Mllford," "Travers," and
all others who advertise in like manner,
have anything whatever to do with Spirit
ualism or any branch of Its teachings.
Many stargnsers would undoubtedly prefer
to pay a nominal license and thereafter
he at peace. license, in our estimation,
should be governed according to lengthy ad
vertisements allowed on bills at cafes, thea
ter curtains. and placards Introduced
through our city. Such can afford to divide
a large share of their spoil, aa spoil It has
come to be.
Lastly: We would petition for Spiritual
mediums' freedom from taxation, granting
public and private circles, seances, public
and private meetings to be free to re
ceive and give messages. That we shall be
known and recognized as members of or be
longing to some of the Spiritual churches,
societies or associations chartered from the
National Spiritualists' Association of
America.
Iastly: Without presenting our petition
to your honorable body in sections, we do
commit them to you for your consideration"
and adoption. Signed by committee.

Gould's Pittsburg Terminal May De
fault in Interest. .
NEW YORK, May 28. Officials of the
Gould roads were tn conference today
concerning the affairs . of the Pittsburg
Terminal Railway Company. Interest to
the amount of J600.000 on the first mort
gage bonds falls due on Monday and
doubt was expressed in financial circles
today whether this interest would Be met.
Today's meeting of the Pittsburg Ter
minal directors was preceded by that of
the Wabash board. No official statement
was issued, but it was announced that
another meeting of the Pittsburg Ter
minal board would be held tomorrow.
when some action regarding the Interest
payment will probably be taken.
In the financial district reports of a
complete reorganization of the Pittsburg
Terminal were current, Ana It was learned
that a tentative leorganlzation commit
tee friendly to the controlling interests
had been formed.
The financial condition of the Pittsburg
Terminal Railway, which owns a major
ity of the stock of the Wheeling & Lake
Brie Road, and is in turn controlled by
the Wabash, is not especially encour
aging. -For the fiscal year ended June 30,
the Pittsburg Terminal reported a
deficit of about J500.000, and for the nine
monins OI me current year earnings wcifl
J4S0.U0O net, with fixed charges of about
JOUO.OOO.
In view of the condition of nttsoura
Terminal's finances, some significance at
taches to the report from Pittsburg that
officials of the Grand Trunk Railway
and the Buffalo, Rochester & Pittsburg
Road have been making an Inspection
tour of the Wabash-Pittsburg Terminal
systems.

THE YOUNG MOTHER
OFTEN FEEDS A TOSTO TO BSEKJ
BACK HER STBENGTB
Dr. William.' Pink Pills Are J oat tha
Remedy Beeanse They -At Effectlv
and Cannot Harm ' Even the Moat
Tellcata Constitution.
The young mother who finds that her
health and strength does not return
after confinement needs a tonic. After
the nurse has gone and the doctor has
stopped his visits a weakness often con
tinues which unfits her for her house
hold duties and It is then that tonic-
treatment is needed. But great care
must be used in the selection of a
strengthening medicine, especially if
the mother is nursing the child. Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills, which contain no
opiate or other harmful drugs, are just
suited to the mother s needs.
Mrs. Ethel K. Foster, of 1808 South
Sheffield avenue, Indianapolis, Ind.,
bears witness to this when she 6a vs:
"After the birth of my two children I
became in a terrible run-down condition
and was weak and sick for about a year
and a half. . I was always up and around
but would have to lie down many times
during the day. I couldn't do much
work for I would get so weak and tremble
so that X would have to lie down. I
suffered constantly with headaches,
which were in front and on top of my
head. There was a feeling on top of
my head as though a weight was coming
down on it. I would get so dizzy
that I couldn't torn around quickly.
If I did I would fall down. My heart
was weak and I would get ont of breath
after any little exertion. Many times
I would start ont for a walk to get a
little exercise but was so weak I could
go only a little ways. I lost in flesh
until I weighed about 90 pounds. I was
pale and yellow, my lips had no color
and my eyes were sunken in my head.
I looked like a dead woman.
"I was under two doctors' care for
about nine months. While they kept
encouraging me, I grew no better and
was completely discouraged. I was
induced to try Dr. Williams' Pink Pills
and after I had taken them a while I
felt so much better that I gave them
good trial and was cured. My com
plexion is healthy and I weigh about
1 25 pounds, which was my weight before
being sick."
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are sold by
all druggists, or will be sent, postpaid, on
receipt or tmce. 60 cents per box: six
boxes for $2.50, by the Dr. Williams

GREAT GALE IX CHICAGO
Havoc Caused by Wind, Rain and
Lightning.
CHICAGO, May 28. A gale of wind
which reached a greater velocity than
has been recorded In Chicago for seven
years, tonight preceded an electrical
storm which did considerable damage
in all parts of the city. Several per
sons were injured by debris blown
from buildings by the gale, and a
church and a half score of other build
ings were struck by lightning. The
etorm was the culmination- of a day
of atmospheric disturbances, which be
gan with daylight and continued in
termittently until nearly midnight.
The greatest instance of damage oc
curred when an 80-foot iron chimney
was blown from the roof of an eight-
story . building at No. 119 Lasalle
street. The chimney fell across i
court, breaking windows in the Bre
voort hotel from the 14th to the sixth
stories, and also crashed through, a
skylight in a restaurant adjoining. One
man was severely cut by broken glass
and scores of guests In the hotel and
patrons of the restaurant were thrown
into a panic.
The high wind, which reached a
velocity of 86 miles an hour, crippled
telegraph and telephone wires through
dut the city. For a short time the
city was almost cut oft from communl
cation with the outside world, but most
of the damage In this regard was tem
porary and was soon adjusted.
The day opened with a severe elec
trical and rain storm, which was almost
a cloudburst. The humidity engen
dered by the outburst increased during
the day until 96.6 per cent was re
corded and the temperature also
mounted eteadlly, the maximum being
79 deg.. 17 points above the minimum.
The rainfall for the morning and even
lng storm was .95 of an inch, the heavi
est experienced here in a long period.
The storm was a portion of the dis
turbance which had been hanging over
the Middle West for several days. Lo
cal conditions had kept this city free
from disturbances until today.
. Des Moines River Rising Fast.
DES MOINES, May 28. With heavy
rains last night here and up the state.
the Des Moines River today is rising at
the rate of one tenth of a foot every
twenty minutes. Many families in the
low lying sections have been forced to
move out.
When the up-river floods reach Des
Moines proper it is believed the river
will be forced to fourteen feet. The dan
ger line is fifteen feet and if that Is
reached little can be done to prevent a
vast amount of damage.
Many acres of corn and gardening are
already totally ruined.

Lard is so perfectly pure, it
becomes one of the ingredients
of biscuits, pastry, and even
cake, lending all its nutritive
qualities without making it
self felt as lard often does in
delicate stomachs.
Columbia Lard, most reliable of even grade, and made
of the best selected fat, carefully rendered and run off
into ney pails and hermetically sealed. Don't risk a new,
untried shortening; remember that you will spoil enough
in one trial of a cheap shortening to pay for a whole pail
of COLUMBIA LAED. Sold by first-class grocers.
