Kelly, representing the iron workers of Portland, appeared before the Monta vllia Board of Trade Monday night and made an argument against the use of wooden staves or reinforced concrete for the second pipe line to Bull Run, favor ing the use of sheet steel for this pipe practically the same as the present pipe line. He condemned wooden pipe and said that reinforced concrete was liable to be cracked by sudden Jarring and rrom other causes. The meeting indorsed the views exnressed bv Mr. Kelly and adopted resolutions to that effect. The Board of Trade also indorsed tne re established grade on Villa avenue, which has been lowered feet by the City Engineer. A much lower grade was asked for, but the City Engineer com promised by lowering the grade one-half what was asked lor. FtrvrRAL. or Mrs. Fries. Mrs. Hattie 1A. Fries, wife of Henry W.

St, General Owen Summers Issues Cir cular Letter to National Guards men for Meeting Tomorrow. General Owen Bummers has Issued a notification to the officers of the Sec ond Oregon Regiment that the tenth an niversary of the surrender of Manila will be celebrated in a fitting manner tomor row night. In his circular letter General Summers says: It is the dslro of quite a number of the rtlrl officers of the Second Oregon United States Volunteers that wa come together for a social reunion. It is now a aecauo 1- ten wars nlnce we volunteered for the late war. Seven deaths have occurred since that time. Quite a number are scattered and In distant sections, but there are still a large number of those who took a prom inent part In the organization that can meet. It has also been suggested that we meet on Thursday evening. August 13. 190S. at the rooms of the elegant Commercial ii,K nf this cltv. from 7 to 11 P. M.. and have a pleasant time. This date i quite appropriate owing to the return of the Na tional Guard from its annual encampment, of which quite a number of officers are .till associated wltn tne present organization. The arrangements as outlined Include a banquet and Informal talks by the survivors of the regiment who are to meet together. In speaking of the occa sion yesterday General Summers said: "Tomorrow will be the tenth anniver sary of the surrender of Manila and close of the Spanish War. in which the troops from this state took an important part. Ten years ago many anxious hearts were waiting for news of those who were at the front. The old Second Oregon was on the firing line and took an active part. Tomorrow night the ex-officers of that old organization will hold their tenth an nual meeting, from 7 to 11 o'clock. It is expected that a goodly number of the officers who have survived win be pres ent to enjoy a few hours In social re union. ''A large number of the officers have been looking forward to this occasion with great pleasure. Fifty-seven offi cers were commissioned In the regiment seven are dead: five are still in the Is lands and two are in the- regular service. Many are still in Oregon, building up its great future as well as they did by their bravery and loyalty when serving their country ten years ago." BIG DEAL IN NORTH END LEASE OX QUARTER-BLOCK IS SOLD FOR $60,000. Corner of Fifth and Glisan Will Be Improved by Erection, of Six Storr Building. Members Conclude Change AVould Not Affect Undesirable Places Where Youths Buy Liquor. It is believed that the City Council, which will meet this morning, will not pass the proposed ordinance, increasing from J300 to S00 a year the licenses of hotels and restaurants where liquor Is sold. Although the measure will come up with the recommendation of the liquor license committee, It Is thought tlfat it will be defeated. There are some who will fight its passage, and others who scarcely favor it who will not fight to se cure its passage. It Is thought, there fore, that It is doomed. Councilman Cottel, chairman of the liquor-license committee, who voted to recommend the ordinance for passage at the committee meeting on Monday, made the following statement yesterday: 'I fear that the ordinance will not ac complish what we want it to accomplish. I have come to believe that it would be best to cut out all the licenses where liquor Is sold in restaurants of the lower classes, and not let them sell liquor at all. I think this Is what we -will have to do: I am airald that there are a lot of restaurants and hotels which should not be allowed to sell liquor at all, no matter what license fee Is charged." Councilman Belding, who is strongly in favor of curtailing the hotels and restau rants where liquor Is sold, said: 'I will not vote for the ordinance as it stands now. I want to see a provision In it that will exclude minors from hotels and restaurant dining-rooms where they serve liquor. Why should we allow minors in hotel and restaurant dining rooms when we do not allow them in sa loons? The Idea is wrong, and I will not vote for the passage of the ordinance until I can see that it is going to stop a lot of danger that now confront young people In hotels and restaurants where they sell liquor. The Chinese noodle Joints should not be allowed to sell liquor under any circumstances. They are not fit places for young people, and we ought to try to protect the young. After they become of age. they can look after them selves, but before that. It is our duty to see that they are kept from danger, as much as possible." While there are some Councllmen who will vote for the passage of the ordinance, the two named, as well as several others, will oppose is passage, and it Is there fore regarded as quite probable that It will be defeated. MERRY MENJN BIG CIRCUS Sixty Clowns Make Fun at Barnum & Bailey Show. If a good laugh Is better than medi cine, a visit to the Barnum & Bailey Greatest Show on Earth is aa benefl- Dr. Andrew C Smith yesterday closed up one of the most Important deals yet made in the rapidly-growing .ortn ma section of the city. Through the agency of Frank Bollam he secured the corner of Fifth and Glisan streets, being the ground to the west of the Union Meat Company's building. The piece is a auarter block and was under a 50-year lease from Rev. George B. Van Water to J. Whyte Evans. Dr. Smith secured the lease which carries with it a clause in the contract that enables the owner of the lease to have an option on the orODertv for ten years at 60.000. Dr. Smith and others who are watching the trend of affairs In that district of the city are ot the opinion that the property is a decided Dargein at bu,wu toaay ana most certainly so before the ten-year ontion runs much longer. The ground was burned over a few weeks ago and It is said to be Dr. bmitn s Intention to erect a building on the site at once, probably a six-story brick or con crete warehouse. In the record of transfers reported yes terday was that of the west 70 feet of lot 8. block 13, city, from the Realty Associates to Everdlng & Farrell. The consideration Is named as J75.0H0. This transfer is made in adjusting the recent purchase of the Columbia building by the Realty Associates, Everdlng & Farrell having held a mortgage on that property. The transferred realty is located at the southeast corner of Second and Yamhill streets. .RITES DF RUSSELL SAGE TROY, X. Y., MAN DISCUSSES LIFE OF GREAT FINANCIER.

Prices talk, at Rosenthal's iboa aalo, Article in Seattle Paper Regarding the Sage Foundation Prompts Spirited Reply. TROT. N. T.. Aug. 6. (To the Edi tor.) I read In the Seattle Times of July 6, ult., the following: While the body of Russell Sage Is pron ki within In his rrave. the millions which he made. by methods which are con- emned. even In Wall street, are o-mi u otort hv hi. widow to one of the most re markable charities ever inaugurated The Sage Foundation Is entirely unbusi nesslike hence the writhing of the business like man who made tne monej wnicn m. this great donation possible but It has within It the possibility ot solving the entire problem of philanthropy. Theae are the opening sentences ot a discussion of the Sage Foundation, meaning the gift of lio.ooo.ooo put in trust whose aim Is to teach men ana women how to live better, more com fortably, more happily and more successfully. Passing the Question of taste and Judgment shown In "vain imaginings" of the condition or. a numan oyirn whollv removed beyond mortal ken and at rest with God who gave it, I will deal with the career and conduct of Russell Sage, a masterful man in the world of business. The allusions to him show a plentiful lack of authentic knowledge which is at once notable and misleading. Russell Sage was born in the Mo hawk Valley. New York, either in Oneida or in Madison County. He was born to poverty; he had his fortune to make; he had vigorous health and grit. He made his way to Troy, on the Hud son, to seek his fortune. Right there, as youth and man, he laid the founda tion of his eminent success by his acute Judgment and by his diligence in busi ness. For that period, he made a for tune" in the wholesale grocery business. He outgrew the opportunities of Troy. He could do large things, so he removed from Troy. He was a man whom his neighbors and fellow-citizens respected and esteemed; they saw he did things. His Immediate neighbors In Troy elected him Alderman from their ward. An incident occurred while he was in the Common Council that shows the stuff he was made of. On a Fourth of July a breathless messenger came to his store and reported a bunch of ' men who had been drinking had become turbulent and were threatening riotous violence. The Chief of Police was ab sent. Mr. Sage was chairman of the committee on police In the Common Council 'hence he was sought. With swift directness he went to the scene of the Incipient disorder, arrested the leader (Quinn), and put him In a cell in the Jail. Troy had no riot that day; and Quinn was saved from probable penal acts that would have cost him dearly. Mr. Sage resumed his work In the store. Russell Sago left Troy later but not till he was elected Congressman from that district and served his term. He did not take an office in New York to catch and shear lambs. He was a man of rare energy. He became a great railroad builder in the West. He said, over 20 years ago, that he reckoned he had built two-thirds of the then mileage of the Chicago. Milwaukee & St. Paul Railroad. He also 'did business in New York. He thus acquired a great fortune; he was a large investor in corporate undertakings; became a director in many, and at the same time he was a lender of money in Wall Btreet on collateral security. Who says that Wall street did not approve his methods? Surely no man who knew his methods. They were those of an up right man. He won nothing by tricks, by snaps, by underhand games and art ful devices. One act which Mr. Sage did in ordinary business will set forth the spirit, quality and decision of the man. It was related to me by a director of the Consolidated Gas Company in New York, of which Mr. Sage was also a director. The gas com pany had advertised for proposals to fur nish a quantity of oil to it. The bids were opened at the directors- meeting. The Standard Oil Company had made no bid. With obtrusive audacity an agent of that company "butted in" and said his company had not bid but would fill the order for a price below the lowest bidder. Almost before the. voice of the agent spoke his last word, Mr. Sage spoke out in protest: "No, you won't, either; for 65 years and more I have done business and I have always done it right up nere and he dropped his hands heavily on the top of the table "I have never got down nere"and he put his hands under the table. The pantomime and the words routed the agent who got no order that day. So much for his methods ot ousi ness. Mr. Sage had his foibles; Wall street laughed at them. He saved as closely as If he were poor and bad to, but that did not cost Wall street and its business men anything, x He did not dupe, and trick and play the game with a lure. He played above board, on top of the table. From poverty and need he came to great wealth. If he did not give freely, wno can tell what aims he had, what purposes he had, what hopes he had that gave him energy, that molded his habits, that made him the man he was? Mr. Sage was a very self-reliant man. The chaff and banter and criticism of other men did not stir him; he. went his own gait. It is hard to read such a man. Why, In Western Massachusetts at Northampton or Hadley a man worked for years laboriously and bore with no complaints the Jollying and the gibes of his neighbor's. By his death his purpose was disclosed, the munificent endowment of Smith Charities for helping young men and women by him founded one of the greatest beneficent Institutions in New England at Northampton. Mr. Sage won a great fortune by his natural gifts. God Almighty endowed him richly. He had a trust which he kept with fidelity. He belongs to the class of men like Commodore Vanderbllt, Andrew Carnegie, Ezra Cornell, George Peabody, etc. Some men preach In these days that a curb should be put on such men. The preaching Is rot. There are diversities of gifts, said the apostle. Shall little fellows seek to thwart Divine Provi dence? It would be impotent folly, ,lf undertaken. He will get his way.- be sure. Rather let us be thankful for his gifts, which help sustain and Inspire men and show forth how great, how strong and how really noble the creature made in God's image may be In- performance and generosity. HENRY U LAMB. LOST PURSE FIGHT OVER Judge Decides That Finder Is Not Guilty of Larceny. Mrs. .Catherine McFarland was de clared not guilty of any criminal in tent of the charge of larceny preferred against her by Mose M. Bloch yester day. Municipal Judge Van Zante, who took the case under advisement Sat urday, yesterday handed down his de cision. In which he exonerated the woman, but stated that he believed that she had listened to poor advice In retaining Bioch's pocketbook. Bloch's papers are still In the pos session of Mrs. McFarland's attorneys, and Bloch may be compelled to file suit for their recovery In the event that he refuses to pay the reward he ad vertised.

PAY MASTER HONORS Captain Magenn Rowed to Ship by ( His Officers. When the steamer Breakwater came into Coos Bay to resume the run be tween that point and Portland, a grace ful honor was paid the captain by the officers of his ship. A boat was manned by the officers, who were In dress uni form, and Captain Magenn was taken from the dock to his vessel in state. This act is considered by seafaring men as the greatest act of courtesy possible" to show a master of a ship, and the popular captain was much gratified at this mark of esteem shown him by his officers. The Breakwater presents a fine appearance since being overhauled. The vessel sails tonight on the return trip. Plan for Gresham Fair.
