Have you bought your Red Cross stamp? if not, it was not the fault of the energetic workers of the Vis iting Nurse Association, who yesterday, from their booths in the hotels, depart ment stores and public buildings, eagerly hailed all passersby and pleaded with them to buy for the sake of "sweet char ity." So strenuously did they labor that their combined efforts netted $345 from the sale of stamps and postal cards in the booths alone. The amount collected In like mapner on Thursday was 244. The new booths in the Hotels Oregon and Imperial surprised even the most sanguine expectations by the amount of their sales, and early in the day the booth in the Charleton 6 and 10-cent store exhausted its stock and sent for rein forcements of stamps and postal cards. The Portland Academy turned in $100 as the amount of Its sales up to date. The lodges are coming to the front with donations, the B. P. O. E. having sent a large check, together with an assurance of their Interest In and sympathy with the work. The booth In the Postcfflce has been averaging over $30 a day, with the receipts steadily on the increase. Demands for stamps from towns throughout the state continue to arrive daily.

WULLNER IS SONG GENIUS Profound Personal Feeling Ex pressed in Rendition of "Lieder." Henry T. Finck. music critic of the New York Evening Post, after sketching the sensational success of Wullner, the German lied singer, quotes him as fol lows: "I cannot regard the 'lied' from a pure ly musical point of view; it means more to me than an aria, a purely vocal piece. A 'lied' must always seem like the ex pression of a profound personal feeling. The person who sings this song at this special moment sings It, not because he wishes to please others, but because he must, because he cannot do -otherwise than give vent to his feelings. That alone Is to me true lyric art." This spontaneous outburst of the emo tions, as described by Wullner himself, explains the profound impression he cre ates upon his audience. Tragedy, exalta tion, sorrow, Joy In its most rapt expres sions these move the hearer as he has never been moved before by song. This singer, who has set the whole Na tion wondering, has been obtained for one recital in Portland by Lois Steers-Wynn Coman. . The concert is set for Decem ber 15. at the Masonic Temple, West Park and Yamhill streets. DECISION TO STAND Supervising Inspector Finds, Against Captain Patterson.

Through his attorney, C. W. Fulton, Captain Patterson appealed. In his decision on the appeal Captain Bermingham se verely criticises the appellant. The finding was as follows: "That he (Captain Patterson) was both negligent and unskillful in the navigation of the Elder on that oc casion. I am of the opinion that he was clearly in,ihe wrong. He should have been most thankful to have been let off so lieniently by the local board.. In my opinion he deserved ten times the punishment he received. The Judg ment of the lower court In the case of appellant. William H. Patterson, Is sustained." In reviewing the testimony Captain Bermingham makes the following statement: "I have no confidence In -the testi mony of Patterson relating to his hav ing seen the green light of the Kern before the collision, or that he did not hear four lawful whistles from the Kern in answer to his first whistle; nor four light whistles from the Kern In answer to his second whistle. Nor do I believe the Kern flashed her searchlight around, up the river and Into the pilothouse of the Elder, which so affected the navigation of that ves sel as to bring about the collision, as testified to by Patterson and his quar termaster." William H. Patterson was acting as pilot of steamship George W. Elder on the trip of the steamer leaving Portland at 8 o'clock on the evening of August 17. Shortly after midnight the Elder struck the tugboat Daniel Kern on the port side aft, sinking the tug. She went down In 64 feet of water. The Kern was engaged in towing rock barges from a point near Waterford light and at the time of the accident was making up a tow of loaded barges, previously dropped by the tug Hercules. Local Inspectors investigated the matter and on September 14 rendered a decision suspending the license of Pilot Patterson for'a period of 10 days. The appeal was made September 27. The testimony submitted to Captain Bermingham was made up of 271 type written pages. COASTING FLEET CROSSES OCT Twelve Vessels Cross Columbia Bar During One Day.

SLED VICTIM CONSCIOUS Some Hope Now Felt for Recovery of Frank Smith. AVhen Frank Smith, who was terribly injured in the Hall-street bobsled acci dent Sunday, became fully conscious for the first time yesterday, his friends be lieved he had a chance for life. He opened his eyes for a brief moment Wednesday,- but yesterday he recognized hie mother as she sat by the bedside. Other well-known friends passed his bed, and in each case recognition was observ able in his eyes. Smith was unable to speak, but this may come later. His present condition is one of paraly sis on the right side, with the exception of the face and neck. Unconscious of his malady as the boy is, as shown by his wandering glances at the hospital room, his marvelous constitution and recupera tive power are making a brave "fight for life, say the physicians. Dr. Alan Welch Smith, the attending physician, has called a brain specialist Into consultation. "We are all pleased with the boy's progress," said. Dr. Smith, at the Good Samaritan "Hospital, yesterday. "It now all resolves itself Into what Nature can do. The extent to which the brain can clear itself and repair the injured parts will decide whether the boy will be para lysed. I hope for complete recovery. It is Impossible to say whether a further operation will be necessary." TRACKS ICY, CARS CRASH Motorman Smith Jumps in Time to Avoid Serious Injury.

The car struck had come to a stop at BABY'S ITCHING WAS INTOLERABLE Girl of Six Months had Fearful Attack of Eczema Spread All Over Her Face and Eyes Began to Swell Scratched Till Blood Came Relieved in a Night and CURED BY CUTICURA AFTER LONG SUFFERING - "When my little girl was six months old I noticed small red spots on her right cheek. I did not pa7 any attention to them but finally the spots grew so large that I sent for the doc tor who said it was ringworm. Ho pre scribed an ointment which I used for two weeks, but instead of helping the eruption, the ointment seemed to make it worse. Then I went to a second doctor who after examining the baby said it was eczema. He also gave me an ointment which did not nelp either. The disease in the meantime spread all over the face and the eyes began to swell. I became Tery anxious. The itching grew intolerable. I had to tie the baby's hands to the cradle to prevent her scratching. The cheeks were covered with blood and it was a terrible sight to see. I consulted doc tors from September to December, but they were unable to cure the baby. I paid out from twenty to thirty dollars without relief. "One of my friends told me of the Cuticura Remedies and I sent at once for a set which I began to use that even ing. The next morning the baby's face was all white instead of red and you can imagine how surprised I was. I cannot find words enough to praise Cuticura and I do not know what would have become of my baby only for it. I used the Cuticura Remedies until the eczema entirely disappeared. The child is now three years old and quite well. I used three cakes of Cuticura Soap, two boxes of Cuticura Ointment and one bottle of Cuticura Resolvent and I never use any other soap. I always recommend them whenever there is a chance for doing so. I will send you one of her pictures which she had taken just after she was healed. Mrs. P. E. Gumbin, Sheldon, la., July 13, 1908."
