Sessions Said to Have Been Produc
tive of Great Good to Cause
of Farmer.
The closing session of the National
Association of American Agricultural
Colleges and Experiment Stations ended
yesterday with the election of officers.
President W. J. Kerr, of the Oregon Ag
ricultural College, Iras chosen presi
dent. This Is an honor to the entire
State of Oregon, and is also ft deserved
recognition of a faithful and hard
working member of the association.
During the sessions just closed he has
presided in place of the president, W.
H. Scoville, of Lexington, Ky., who Is
seriously ill, and became universally
popular through the fairness of his de
cisions and the business-like manner In
which he expedited affairs. Other offi
cers chosen are: Vice-presidents. H. J.
Waters. Kansas: W. P. Brooks, Massa
chusetts: C. A. Lory, Colorado; P. H.
Rolfes. Florida; L. Foster. New Mexico;
secretary-treasurer, J. H. Hills, of Ver
mont: bibliographer, A. C. True, of
Washington, D. C.
One of the most important acts of
the association was the creation of a
department of extension work, co-ordinate
with the other two departments of
college and administration work and
experiment station work.
Every state was represented by dele
gates except Alabama. Connecticut,
North Carolina, South Dakota and Ten
nessee, a total of 160 delegates being
present.
An important resolution adopted was
offered by President Edwards, of the
Rhode Island Agricultural College, as
follows:
This amoclatloh recognizes that the spirit
of the Morrill law Intended that the In
struction provided for In the law should In
clude Instruction In subjects pertaining to
agriculture, engineering and the sciences
leading thereto, whether In universities con
taining agricultural colleges or In separate
agricultural colleges.
Most of the delegates will remain In
Portland and vicinity for several days
taking the numerous side trips which
appeal to tourists.
It is agreed oy innunniiai ueiegiiicB
that the meeting Just closed was the
most successful ever held, the principal
results being bringing before the De
partment of Agriculture the necessity
or adding agricuuurai atuuiea iu mo
list of subjects now treated of In the
public schools of the United States and
the addition of new sections to the
work of the colleges. As a result of Its
efforts, farmers' Institutes will be car
ried on In all rural communities and a
systematic campaign for the Improve
ment of the condition of the American
farmer will be made.
The next meeting place or the associ
tion is left to the executive committee.
IDEAL ROAD IS PLANNED
WIDE BOULEVARD TO ENXIRCXE
COUNCIL- CREST.
Magnificent Views Afforded by Pres
ent County Highway Appeal to
Members of Park Board.
A boulevard 109 feet wide, encircling
Council Crest, on the road now existing
there, was proposed by Dr. Wetherbee
yesterday afternoon at a meeting of the
Park Board. Mayor Simon and the other
members present declared It would fur
nish a most beautiful driveway, and the
Improvement plan was referred to Su
perintendent Mische for Investigation and
report.
The road extending around council
Crest now affords views acknowledged to
be among' the most beautiful in the United
States. It is only a county road, how
ever, and Is not very well kept, being
dusty and so narrow that It Is virtually
Impossible for automobiles to pass. It
Is the Idea of Dr. Wetherbee to take over
the roadway and make it one of the most
elegant boulevards In the country.
Superintendent Mische submitted, with
other Items In the September estimate,
one for 3000 for grading on the proposed
Terwllllger boulevard, donated to the
city by the Terwllllger heirs, through J.
P. Moffett. This is one of two boule
vards promised by Mayor Simon, and it
is probable that actual work will be
commenced on construction in the near
future. It will connect with Terwllliger
Park, and will run along the crest of
the western hills from the City Park.
Macleav Park was the subject of dis
cussion by Mayor Simon and Commis
sioners Wetherbee and Lewis. The Mayor
and Dr. Wetherbee inspected the park
with a party of distinguished park su
perintendents last week, and now have
a full appreciation of its grandeur, and
are desirous of taking steps to beautify
It. The Mayor Is anxious to have a good
roadway built, as the park at present Is
Inaccessible. The subject was referred
to Dr. Wetherbee, who will submit a re
port as to what he believes should be
done there to make this one of the best
parks in tne Portland system.
A communication from W. D. Fenton
was read, asking that the Park Board
consider the proposition of setting aside
a plot of ground in the Hazel Fern farm
tract, near Sunnyside, for a home for the
Oregon Historical Society, where Its
large collection may be housed. This
was laid on the table until another ses
sion, as Commissioners Lang and Clark
were absent from the city, and it was de
sired to have a full Board when the sub
ject Is discussed further.
SPECIALS TOR TODAY.

Cuisine and Dressmaking to Be
Taught In Atkinson Building in
Quarters Xot Occupied by
Boys' Trade Classes.
An industrial school for girls Is to be
established this Fall by the Board of
Education in that part of tne Atkinson
School Building not occupied by the trade
school for boys. This was decided at
.-i.Tnir'. moAtint. nf the Board. Re
quests for such a school have been fre
quent, and It is the opinion of the Board
that the Institution should be established
soon. As the equipment will not ba elab
orate. It is expected the new institution
will be ready when the public schools
open, about the middle of September.
Cooking and dressmaking will be the
principal subjects taught. About 60 pu
pils have already applied for admission.
A report from the chairman of the
building committee shows that, with two
exceptions, the new buildings will be
ready for occupancy when the Fall term
commences. The Davta School, while
rapidly nearlng completion, will not be in
shape to receive pupils for several weeks.
A number of rooms In the Ockley Green
School will be ready for use. The other
school buildings that will be completed
before the Fall sessions begin are: Al
blna Homestead, Irvlngton, Vernon, Cres
ton and Eliot.
A report on the fire protection of var
ious schools was submitted to the in
surance committee. Schools in Rose City
Park. Woodstock and Arleta were shown
to have very poor facilities for fighting
fire.
A communication was read' from the
Portland Fair & Livestock Association
asking the Board to declare Monday,
September 20. a holiday, to enable chil
dren to attend the show on that day. The
subject was discussed, the opinion pre
vailing that there are already too many
holidays in the school year, and that,
coming so soon after the opening of the
schools, the holiday sought would hinder
the work considerably. The request was
referred to a committee to confer with
the Association, to ask that Children's
Dav at the fair be on Saturday.
The question of increasing the hours
In the trade school was not decided at
yesterday's meeting. While most of the
members favored such a measure, it was
thought best to consult the statutes be-
The Board definitely decided to retain
its quarters in the City Hall. There had
been some thought of moving the Su
perintendent's office to the house owned
by the Board, on Couch street, the site
of the new high school. It was decided
to rent the property. Instead, without giv
ing a lease.
TOT SURVIVES BIG FALL
ACCIDENT FATAIi TO MAX OXLT
HURTS IRIS HILL.
Eight-Tear-Old Child Topple Off
Fire-Escape While at
Play.
Falling 30 feet yesterday little Iris Hill,
g years old, sustained only slight Injuries;
10 months ago a man toppling off the
same fire-escape was killed instantly.
While playing with a number of chil
dren about the roots of the buildings in
the rear of 211 Second street, directly
behind the Auditorium Hall, Iris Hill, the
little daughter of Mr. and Mrs.-William
Hill, of 211H Second street, climbed upon
the fire-escape leading to the third floor
of the hall late yesterday afternoon. A
few moments later she lost her balance
and fell, striking the roof several ' feet
below, where her companions played. The
child then rolled off the roof and fell 20
feet below, striking the concrete pave
ment in the alley.
When rescuers arrived, to their aston
ishment, the child was found to be alive
and apparently only stunned by the fall.
She was taken to the Good Samaritan
Hospital, where examination revealed her
Injuries, while serious, may not neces
sarily prove fatal. In rebounding from
the roof, the child turned in such a man
ner as to cause her to land upon the
sforre surface below in a crouching posi
tion. No bones were broken, but both
knees and head irere Injured.
At the time of the accident the child
was at home alone. The mother was en
gaged In her work in a local gas mantel
manufacturing plant. Upon being In
formed of the accident she swooned and
it was necessary to place her under the
care of a physician.
From the same fire-escape and In prac
tically the same manner H. B. Mitchell, a
prominent member of the Improved Order
of Redmen, fell to his death during a ses
sion of the lodge In the Auditorium Hall
the night of October 31, 190S. He stepped
upon the same landing where the little
girl played yesterday, presumably to ad
just the fire shutters. Early the follow
ing morning his lifeless body was found
In the Identical spot where the child
struck on the concrete floor of the alley
yesterday.
INQUIRY SET FOR MONDAY
Inspectors to Investigate Sinking of
Tug Kern by Steamer Elder.
Captain E. S. Edwards and George Ful
ler. United States Inspectors of Hulls and
Boilers, will hold an investigation at 9
o'clock Monday morning Into the collision
between the steamship George W. Elder
and tug Daniel Kern last Wednesday
morning In which the tug was sunk In
the Columbia River.
The two vessels came together off Wa
terford Light. 20 miles above Astoria,
and the preliminary investigation will In
clude the examination of the officers in
charge of the two vessels, as well as the
members of t'.ieir crews who may have
seen the accident.
However, the examination will not be
completed until the return of the George
W. Elder from San Pedro, which will be
about a week hence, and after the wit
nesses now here are examined, the in
vestigation will be postponed until the
Elder returns.
Captain W. H. Patrerson, who acted as
pilot of the Elder on the night of the
collision, will be on hand to give his ac
count of the movements of his vessel that
night, and Captain Copeland, of the Kern,
will likewise be called upon to testify be
fore the .Government officials. Members
of the crew of the Kern and one of the
passengers on the Elder, who has re
mained over, will also be called before
the Inspectors.
The sunken tug lies almost completely
submerged in the main channel of the
river and is said to be a menace to navi
gation, for only the tops of her masts
SHUBERTS ARE COMING
Cordray Says Magnates Own Thea
ter Site Here.
That the Shuberts will have nothing
to do with the Heilig- Theater when
choosing a borne in Portland, but that
they have already had plans drawn for
a handsome modern playhouse here and
have even purchased a site, is the state
ment made by John F. Cordray. who. It
is stated, will have charge of the Shu
bert Interests here.
The announcement that the Heilig
Theater was to be reopened here by the
middle of October gave rise to rumors,
and It was even conjectured that the
Shuberts would occupy the Heilig when
it reopened.
This probably arose from the fact
that about two weeks ago William kus-
sell, of Seattle, who represents the
Shuberts there, visited Portland and
with John F. Cordray scanned the Hei
lig property and discussed Its availabil
ity. Since then it. has been announced
that Mr. Cordray would In all proba
bility represent the Shuberts in Port
land. "I am quite positive from what I
know the Shuberts are about to do in
Portland tjiat they will never occupy
the Heilig Theater." said Mr. Cordray
yesterday. "They will have nothing to
do with It, or with any frame theater,
and all the remodeling that can be done
to the Heilig will not make it satisfac
tory to the Shuherts."
"What are the Shuberts about to do
In Portland?" he was asked.
"Well. I know they have already had
plans drawn for a handsome modern
theater which will be built here soon.
Tes. a site has been purchased, al
though I will not be at liberty for the
next two or three weeks to state just
where the location is."

WHERE DULL CARE
FADES AWAY
That applies to the selection of a place
at which to spend an afternoon or even
ing. There is only one "best" place The
Oaks.
This favorite amusement park in all its his
tory never was more beautiful than now. The
grounds contain masses of the choicest flow
ers; the great oaks shield the visitor from
the hot rays of the sun ; the outlook is of the
picturesque Willamette, and the amusement
features are as nearly complete as an ex
penditure of time and money can produce.
One of the best bands in the country fur
nishes the highest class music in two con
certs afternoon and evening. Signor Du
mond, the talented operatic tenor, goes on
the programme Sunday and will continue
through the week, this notable addition to
the concert being made as another compli
ment to visitors. An added attraction is pre
sented in Mme. Schell and her trained lions,
Prince and Babe. All who have seen these
handsome animals agree in saying they are
the most beautiful specimens of the king of
beasts ever seen in this country.
Among the regular features are the chutes,
scenic railway, figure 8, tickler, crazy house,
dreamland, roller skating rink, dancing pa
vilion, shooting galleries, old mill, "hell,"
boating, swimming pool, postal photographs,
candy and bon-bon booths, luncheon pa
vilions, Oaks Inn, giant whirl, carousal,
magic mirrors, road to Dublin, and many
others. ,
Despite the closing of the Madison bridge,
the street railway company is giving an ex
cellent service to The Oaks, and vast crowds
are moved from East Morrison and East

venience. Take cars at Third and Yamhill,
