tion of 200 to Los Angeles
Gathering.
SPECIAL TRAIN PROVIDED
Merry Party Off on Junket to South
land Ially Paper, "Tlie Goat,"
Will Be Published on Train
During the Trip.
Bearing nearly 200 members of Tort
land Lodge No. 142. Tt. P. O. Elks, and
the wives and families of some of them,
a special train consisting of three Pull
man standard sleepers, three compartment
cars, a buffet and bacgraKe car. an obser
vation and chair car. pulled out of the
I'nlon depot at 11:30 o'clock last night
bound for Los Ansoles. where the "Best
i eopio on h,arth" are to congregate in
their annual conlave July 12 to 18 in
clusive. Boost for Portland In 1012.
Every member of the Portland lodge
who could possibly get away Is num
bered in the list of excursionists who
will arrive at Los Angeles on mis special
train Sunday morning. It comprises a
merry throng, all good fellows, and bound
for Los Angeles with the idea of present
ing before the other visiting lodges the
desire of Portland to entertain the grand
lodge In three years hence. "Port
land in 19V" is the battle-cry of the
Portland and Oregon contingent, and in
this enterprise "142" is being ably abet
ted by the various Elk lodges of Wash
ington. Idaho and Montana.
At the coming convention of the grand
lod) the place of meeting for next year.
1910. only will be chosen, but the Port
land and Oregon delegation desires to
commence campaigning early enough to
assure all delegates that this city wishes
to be recognized at the convention of
1911, when the place of meeting for the
following year will be chosen. In order
to arouse interest in . Portland's claim
for the highest recognition in the power
of the organization, Delegate John B.
Coffey is empowered to present a guar
antee of $100,000 before the coming ses
sion, and to further assure the grand
lodge that a certified check for this
amount will be placed in the hands of the
grand secretary at the meeting of the
order In 1911.
Will Make Strong Bid.
This means that Portland is going to
bid for the grand lodge of Elks in a
manner that will cause this city to be
. recognized, and furthermore to create a
favorable sentiment among tne many
thousands of Elks at the grand lodge
convention. It also means that the large
number of Elks who will pass through
this city en route to the Seattle exposi
tion when returning to their homes will
take pains to investigate for themselves
and Portland will not fail to show them
that it can accommodate the convention
easily.
Aboard the special train are the most
prominent and enthusiastic members of
the Portland lodge, and as the Portland
lodge Is accredited with having Installed
itself in one of the finest lodge-rooms
known to the order In the country the
delegation will be on a footing wuh any
at Los Angeles.
When the big parade of Elks takes
place at the Angel City, Portland will
be represented In the line by 100 uni
formed members of the Portland - lodge
and this number beats that of any lodge
In the Northwest. However, the Port
land Elks take their hats off to Baker
t-lty, and simply because the enterprising
Eastern Oregon metropolis. while not
nearly in a class with Portland, has sent
a delegation of 56 members of that lodge
In addition to a band of 26 pieces. Baker
being one of the few lodges to send a
complete band to Los Angeles. This
lodge, accompanied by the band, arrived
in Portland yesterday morning, and de-

from this section went forward from
here today to Los Angeles to be dis

ment were lo.OOO bottles of California

HICKS' MEMORY IS POOR
COMMERCIAL CLUB "STCXG" BY
CHICAGO MAX.
Friend of Visiting Baptists Collects
for "Dutch" Feast, but Forgets
to Pay Bill.
Where, oh where is Hervev Tlrvnn
llicka? That's Just what the board of
governors of the Commercial Club and
other members of the club would like to
know. And they would appreciate the
information, for one and all are begin
ning to realize that they have been
"stung."
Traveling under the guiding care of a
number of leading delegates to the North
ern Baptist convention, Mr. Hicks was
soon well known to some of leading
Portland business men. Introduced by
one of them to George Lawrence. Jr.,
the latter obtained for the stranger tem
porary membership at the Commercial
Club, where he took a roorn.. Incidentally,
with a few other sundries, he has never
paid for it.
One night Mr. Hicks gave a little sup
per to a number of his friends. "Be
cause we are almost strangers we'll go
It 'Dutch,' " he said. They agreed. A
splendid meal was served and Mr. Hicks
obligingly collected the $2 per from his
friends. However, he quite omitted to
settle for the meal with the club. It
was charged to his account.
"You are not treating those delegates
properly." he told the club members.
"You ought to entertain them better."
E. L. Thompson took him at his word
and invited Mr. Hicks and a number
of Baptists to go auto riding. They ac
cepted. The next day, says Mr. Thomp
son, Hicks casually dropped into his of
fice to borrow some money, but the real
estate man was busy. A friend was not
so fortunate and he supplied the Chicago
man with what he required.
Mr. Hicks -waa very inquiring. Giving
his address as the Portland Hotel he
sent out circulars asking for particulars
of land for sale. He was in Portland
unofficially, he said, ln the interests of
the Land and Irrigation Congress to be
held ln Chicago. He was a real estate
man there, he added.
Then without blowing any trumpet Mr
Hicks faded away. "I expect I'm stuck
for his bill." said Mr. Lawrence, last
n ght, but then Mr. Lawrence consoles
himself with the fact that he lent the
agreeable stranger no money.- while
others did.
Of course Mr. Hicks is going to send
his check. At least he Baid so but the
club members wonder.

One witness was prepared to testify

MISS AXDERSOX GETS $5000
City of AMorla Loses in Federal
Damage Suit.
A verdict of 500 against the City of
Astoria in favor of Miss Annie Ander
son was brought in by a Jury 'in the Fed
eral Court yesterday morning. Miss
Anderson sued the city for $20,000 for per
sonal injuries . sustained on a defective
wharf. Her left hip was broken and
she was permanently crippled.
The issues in the case involved the'
authority of the city over that part of
the wharf where Miss Anderson fell and
also the exact spot where the accident
occurred. It was the contention of her
attorneys that the accident happened on
Eleventh street south of the Astoria &
Columbia River Railroad's tracks. The
contention of the defense was that Miss
Anderson fell between the rails of the
right of way thus attempting to place
the blame on the railroad. The city also
disclaimed jurisdiction over the portion
of the wharf where' Miss Anderson de
clared she fell.
The accident resulted from her stepping
off a raised and unprotected plank apron
built as an approach on the wharf to
the railroad right of way.

Harris, 170 West Killingsworth avenue,
fell down stairs yesterday morning at 9
o'clock and sustained a broken arm. The
injury is regarded as serious, and It is
Just possible that the loss of the arm
may be involved.
The fracture of the bone is a com
minuted one, it being broken Into small,
sharp fragments, some of -which have
cut through the flesh and smaller blood
vessels and created a serious condition
which promises a long time before re
covery can be expected.
Mrs. Stanley fell to the bottom of the
stairs, striking upon her upper arm with
great violence. Members of the family
summoned an ambulance from the Cen
tral Stables and had her conveyed to the
Good Samaritan Hospital, where she was
attended by Dr. J. R. Wetherbee.
