Invention or ex-Chief HoUlen Is Sub-j"-t of Much Discussion and Inquisition. Six iron doors to fire alarm boxes, a specially patented article, invented bv 1-ee ltolden. formerly a battalion chief in the Fire Department, furnished a sufficient supply of material for an hour's discussion by members of the fire committee of the Hxecutive Board yes terday afternoon. Other things were tinder consideration, hut this particular item seemed to worry the committee men. No report was formulated or motion made at the conclusion of the meeting-. However.- the action of the former tire committee in purchasing- the doors was apparently looked upon as a piece of official extravagance worthy of rebuke, as the doors have never been tised. Isaac Swett acted as Inquisitor, and Fire Chief Campbell. Battalion Chief Younn and Klectriclan bavarian were present to furnish answers. A broken cistern at Twelfth and Washington streets; a . broken wheel of a chemical wajron in the station-house at Second and Oak streets, and the doors already mentioned, were a few of several items about which the committee wished in formation. The cistern and the cart wheel were In Chief Young's district, and he tried to answer the questions put to him about those matters. Con cerning the doors. Electrician Savarian and Chief Campbell gave some informa tion. TTmt the door patented bv Mr. Holden is a good one. but that it Is not needed here at all. seemed to be the burden of the testimony of the Are officials. It was 18 months ago thev were rur chased, and not one has ever been placed on a box. It is a device which can.be opened without a key. and Chief Campbell thinks it a good invention.' Responsibility for buying these was put upon Marcus G. Fleischner, L. T. Peery and D. A. Pattullo. comprising the for mer committee, all of whom resigned because of friction with Mayor Lane some months ago. As to the cistern. Battalion Chief Young assured the committee he did all in his power to repair it, and failed; Chief Campbell seemed to ' think It of but little Importance, as he said the hydrant at that point is always ready for use. Chief Young said he heard about the broken wheel on the chemical cart and ordered A. G. Long, from whom the city bought the piece of ap paratus, to have It repaired. He was criticised for doing so without the au thority ot the committee, but shielded himself behind Chief Campbell, ho whom Chief Young said he reported. PERS0NALMENTI0N.

OPENS NEXT TUESDAY CHAUTAUQUA THIS YEAR TO BE RECORD-BREAKER, Great Things Promised for Sixteenth Session of Willamette Val ley Association. With the sound of the first note from the famous Chemawa Indian Band, one week from this morning, the 16th an nual assembly of the Willamette Valley Chautauqua Association will be form ally opened to what is generally re garded as the best Chautauqua pro gramme ever given in the Northwest. Nearly all of the features are distinctly new to the Pacific Coast, making the entire presenta-tion. peculiarlv attrac tive. Reports already ir. possession of Secretary H. E. Cross indicate that the attendance, usually large, will be aug mented by thousands of newcomers since last year. Accommodations for an anuually increasing attendance have been provided and Gladstone Park, one of the most naturally beautiful groves In the state, has been made especially beautiful for this exceptionally Inter esting assembly. Sylvester A. Long, said to be one of the strongest lecturers on the Chau tauqua platform, choosing for his sub ject, "Lightning and Toothpicks," and Montavtlle Flowers, of Cincinnati, as sisted by the sisters, Misses Grace and Luella Keller, the former In readings and the latter two accompanying musically, will command the attention of the afternoon visitors. The assem bly will be welcomed by Congressman W. C. Hawley in the morning, followed by the organization of the . Summer school. The latter is expected to prove more popular than ever before. ' As the week progresses new and tempting numbers will be provided. reaching a decidedly dramatic point on Thursday afternoon, when the eloquent and celebrated Chicago preacher, Dr. Frank G. Smith, of the Warren-Avenue Congregational Church, will deliver his lecture, entitled, "Our Nation;, Her Mis-, slon. Her Hopes, Her Perils." This lec ture has earned the commendation of the late Senator William B. Allison, who showered praise upon the author with out reservation, believing it to be the most apropos effort of the century. Monday, the day before opening, the grounds at Gladstone Park will be ap propriately decorated upon the occasion of the celebration of the Fourth of July, and many people who are prepar ing to ,camp throughout the session will set up their equipment at that time, all joining In an old-fashioned basket picnic during the day. A fare and a third has been granted to all stations on the O. R. & N. and Southern Pacific Railroads and both the Cottage Grove and Roseburg trains have arranged to stop at the grounds. The railroad company has placed a ticket agent on the grounds. From Portland and Oregon City the Portland Railway, Light & Power Company will furnish special service to Gladstone Park, the fare being 25 cents, rour.1 trip, from Portland and 6 cents from Oregon City. Secretary Cross says that the num ber of camping parties taking advan tage of the delightful vacation oppor tunities, combining the educational fea tures as well, will be larger than ever before. The organization Is advising campers to be In readiness the day before opening, thus participating in the National festivities and being able to enjoy the entire session without interruption.
